Path of light

Chapter 193 194. Tonight belongs to Claire

Under the gaze of Princess Ophelia, Roy quickly greeted:

"Teacher Ophelia, good evening."

Princess Ophelia turned to look at Roy and said gently with a smile:

"What? Aren't you going to ask me to dance?"

"Teacher Ophelia..."

Roy was dumbfounded. He never expected that Princess Ophelia would say such things to him. In full view of the public, it was impossible to refuse.

At this time, Roy could only calm down and take a step forward, bending down to Princess Ophelia and extending his hand. Princess Ophelia's mouth was filled with a touch of pride, and then there was a white magic pattern. One gloved hand was handed over.

All the elf students who were preparing to watch Princess Ophelia leave were also a little confused.

They couldn't figure out why the aloof Silver Moon Elf Princess danced with this college freshman.

Even Edith and Phyllis secretly exchanged glances.

Roy and Princess Ophelia looked towards the dancing area of ​​the ball, and the elf students blocking them immediately moved out of the way.

Even the teachers and instructors of the academy were no longer in a hurry to leave, and invited other teachers to join Princess Ophelia on the dance floor.

At this time, Claire suddenly ran out of the crowd. He stood on the steps of the corridor and shouted to the crowd:

"Wait a minute, please let me play this piece!"

After saying that, Claire walked quickly towards the direction of the band.

Seeing Claire on the stage, the elves below all cheered. He is considered the most popular elf among the freshmen at the Elf Academy...

Claire ran to the orchestra in the corner, and the musicians in those orchestras stood up and welcomed Claire.

The player sitting in front of the organ even gave up his seat and wanted to ask Claire to sit down.

Claire thanked her quickly, and then sat down in front of the organ. As the soothing music flowed out, the white light threads floating in the night sky undulated and danced like wheat waves.

Roy danced carefully, not daring to make any mistakes, so that his body was very stiff...

He didn't even dare to put his fingers on Princess Ophelia's waist. On an apparently not very hot night, a glistening layer of sweat appeared on Roy's forehead.

"Relax, I heard that you and your friends rescued a boatload of young elves at sea, including Edith?"

Princess Ophelia also found that Roy was too nervous.

She tried to talk about something lighter to divert his attention...

"How do you know?"

Roy responded.

Seeing how cautious he looked, not showing the slightest flair as he stood at the door of the teaching building that day, Princess Ophelia couldn't help but want to laugh.

Then, she suddenly felt that this semester seemed to be very interesting, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly unconsciously.

Princess Ophelia said to Roy:

"Did you know that that night, Edith invited almost all the Silver Moon Elf nobles from the Elf Academy? Once the Nautilus is unable to return normally, problems will arise in the entire Castletown."

Roy said honestly: "I really didn't think so much at the time..."

"It was a second-level plant type Warcraft Nightmare Vine. It was in its flowering period that night. The pollen it spread had a strong hypnotic effect, and could even put the elves into nightmares from which they could not wake up. The sea reef was only flooded by the tide. It will only surface when the time comes. If you didn't wake up in time, the consequences may be unimaginable!" Princess Ophelia said.

"Teacher Ophelia, you probably know that I am a priest, so I am somewhat resistant to hypnosis!"

Regarding this matter, Roy felt that he needed to explain.

"This time I pull you to dance, which can be regarded as an encouragement to you."

Princess Ophelia said casually.

"Thank you very much..." Roy said against his will, not wanting to be in the spotlight.

He is not deaf. He has studied at the Elf Academy for a few months. Of course he knows that there are several Silver Moon Elf nobles in the academy, all of whom are suitors of Princess Ophelia. He does not want to become a thorn in the side of these Silver Moon Elf nobles. …

Soon Claire's performance of "The Blue Darne" ended.

Roy quickly took the opportunity to stop, and the other teachers laughed and left the dance floor.

There was warm applause from all around, and Princess Ophelia finally left the dance with the teachers and instructors of the academy.

Feeling that many elf students were watching him secretly, Roy wanted to hide in a corner.

Claire walked down the steps, and more elf students gathered around...

Just looking at Clare can give you some idea of ​​how popular a musician is in Castletown.

Roy walked through the chaotic crowd, but fortunately Sabrina was still standing there waiting for him. Roy breathed a sigh of relief and walked quickly to Sabrina's side.

Probably because Princess Ophelia danced with Roy.

When Roy was walking through the crowd, some Silver Moon elves began to greet him enthusiastically.

Sabrina waited there with a smile, her half-blood elf companions were no longer here.

"You're a terrible dancer."

Sabrina whispered to Roy.

She also lowered her head when talking to Roy in a low voice.

After saying that, Sabrina took the initiative to hold his arm and pointed behind Roy. Roy turned around and saw Claire walking from behind.

Claire strode up to Roy, put her arms around his shoulders, and said to Roy with a smile:

"Roy! It's true that you actually asked Princess Ophelia to dance!"

"..."

Roy didn't want to explain at all.

Claire's female companion Shirley walked over from behind and was also looking at Roy curiously.

There were some fluctuations in her eyes when she looked at Roy for the first time.

She gave Roy a complicated look.

"Come on, let's go dance too."

The music started playing again, Claire patted Roy on the shoulder, and then walked quickly down the dance floor with her female companion.

Shirley showed a sweet smile and followed Claire obediently...

Roy suddenly noticed that the smile on Shirley's face didn't seem to be very sweet anymore.

Having been friends with Claire for so long, he understood what Claire was thinking.

Claire just wanted Roy to see another side of Shirley. If it were Roy's previous life, Shirley would have been a green tea.

Roy withdrew his thoughts, turned around and leaned down to Sabrina beside him, stretched out his hand, and said to her with a smile:

"Sabrina, can I ask you to dance? Although my dancing is a bit bad, I can promise that I will never step on your dancing shoes."

"Hey, what kind of invitation is this!"

There are so many dancing students and the dance floor is so big.

Although the number of elves entering the dance was limited, the dance floor was still boiling like a boiling pot.

Roy and Sabrina missed this scene, and they and the elf students behind them lined up for the next song.

Claire and Shirley don't have this kind of trouble. Claire is the new star of the Elf Academy. When he walks to the dance floor, the elf students make room for him...

Claire danced so well that once he stepped onto the dance floor there was no chance of him getting out again.

Shirley only danced with him once and waited quietly on the edge of the dance floor. Many senior students even took the initiative to come over.

During this period, Beryl Claire also brought a group of friends to dance with Claire...

Of course, Roy hugged Sabrina and entered the dance floor as he wished. The Silver Moon Elves danced something similar to a waltz, but Roy preferred the country dance where everyone lined up neatly on the Nautilus.

Sabrina's faint lilac scent kept creeping into Roy's nose.

He took Sabrina's soft hand and put his other arm around her waist.

Her waist is not slender, but rather shapely and toned.

Sabrina, who was opposite Roy, felt ripples in her heart. Looking at the clear-cut young and handsome face in front of her, it was difficult to connect with the shy person before.

When he first moved to Brown Street, Roy was an extremely introverted half-elf who always liked to hide behind Ms. Belinda's skirts.

Later, he lived in Brown Street for a period of time and became naughty and mischievous. He also learned bad habits from the children on the street. He always liked to lift girls' skirts...

There are so many changes now.

There was more confidence on his face, more color in his eyes, and more kindness in his smile.

Sabrina sees Roy's recent changes...

The two of them had to take a break after dancing. There were too many elves who wanted to dance, so everyone had to take turns.

…

Claire has a surprise for Roy.

In fact, for this surprise, Claire asked her sister Beryl to introduce her best friend to Roy as a female companion...

What Claire didn't expect was that Roy himself found a beautiful mixed-blood elf as his dance partner.

In fact, this incident is tantamount to Claire letting her sister Beryl off and oweing her a favor.

As a large number of elf students left the stage, Roy and Sabrina held hands for the third time and followed a group of elves onto the dance floor.

When the music started playing, the dancing elves found that there seemed to be something wrong with the music, and a section of the music was missing.

The piece ends quickly.

The surrounding music stopped...

At this time, the elves on the dance floor suddenly made way. Claire waved in the direction of the band and saluted, then turned around and walked into the dance floor alone with handsome steps.

As he walked, he took out the violin from his magic belt bag, and Claire didn't stop until he reached Roy and Sabrina.

He was like a light bulb, making the place where Roy and Sabrina were the focus of all the elves' attention.

At this time, Claire winked at Roy and said proudly: "Don't stop, everyone can continue dancing..."

A poignant and melodious melody flows from the violin strings.

This is Clare's re-arrangement of the violin piece - 'Bernis'.

When the melody showed an emotional progression for the first time, all the dancing elves on the dance floor stopped one after another, and everyone looked at Claire who was standing on the dance floor performing.

When the violin piece ended, Claire received warm applause again.

At this final dance, Claire, with these two pieces of music, defeated other elves and was selected by the students as the most popular student in the Elf Academy this year...
