The Demon Lord System
Ch. 86 - Party at a restaurant
Along the way, Ling listens to stories from her servants about several things. For example, about Kaito who has come home because he was picked up by his family. Then there is also news about Kurumi who is now in a building camp paratroopers.
A few hours earlier, after Ling had fallen asleep. Ling's waiter gets Kurumi's news from a bat.
Ling only nodded small in return.

Not noticeably, moments later, Ling and her family had arrived at the party. Ling got off his horse-drawn carriage and immediately walked into the restaurant along with his three servants. The other three Ling servants, named Areka, Johan and Amedia. They did not enter because they said they would guard Ling's horse carriage. Ling did not mind it, after all if he entered with too many servants, it would attract a lot of attention from the surroundings.
Upon entering the party, Ling's parents and brothers separated, Ling's parents gathered with the other prominent heads of the family, while the Ling brothers were now looking for a dance partner at the party.
For this restaurant itself is very magnificent, but this restaurant is only two floors only. However, the area of the building is very large, the floors of the building are also very clean and shiny.
Ling then sat down at one of the circular tables that had four seats there. Ling sat with his servants at the circular table. Before Ling and his service sat down, the food had indeed been neatly arranged on the table, therefore Ling's servants immediately ate the food. Now this restaurant has not become a public restaurant, now that can enter the restaurant that is holding a party of only twelve prominent families and the royal family, but there are exceptions, but there are exceptions, that is, the servants of each family can still enter, but even then only those invited by their master.
"Sir, this meal is very good, but sir, is it okay for us to eat with you at the same table?"
Estes only this first time to feel the food as delicious as this, especially the cuisine makes his body as if getting energy, actually for the meat in this restaurant itself is indeed contains energy, it really contains energy, because the meat chosen is magic animal meat and wild animal meat. Yet Estes felt this seemed inappropriate for her who was only a servant.
Please also note that Estes is not a child who comes from a family that is capable, you could say Estes is a mediocre child. Because of these factors, in the end made himself embarrassed.
"It's okay, you're all my most important servants." Ling smiled and then picked up the cake on the table and started eating it.
'Servant well, I seem to be too hopeful.' Inner Yuki while staring at her food listlessly.
Meanwhile, in contrast to Yuki, the other two Ling servants became very happy because Ling said they were important servants to him.
As they were eating, suddenly a hand grabbed Ling's shoulder from behind.
Ling turned his face away and had already guessed it was someone he definitely knew.
"Yo Ling."
"Hmm?"
A red-haired man with white enough skin was now in front of Ling, he was Ling's partner who was none other than Kaito.
"What's wrong?" Ling asked without making small talk, he was sure that Kaito was looking for someone.
"Ling, where's Miru? I want to ask her to dance."
When he heard the dance speech, Ling was very surprised. If so, he would definitely dance because he had come to the party. But he had neither a lover nor a woman close to him.
"Well?!"
Ling turned his face back and bit the cake that was on the table. After that he then returned to answer the question from Kaito, "You don't see? I brought a lot of servants, if I added him, I would seem to be the center of attention." It was obviously Ling who then went back to bite the cake that was in his hand.
Kaito was stunned, he did not think about it at all. Kaito then withdraws from Ling to find a dance partner. Meanwhile, Ling was currently still thinking about her dance partner.
'Shit, who am I going to dance with?' Ling was now thinking hard, for a long time he had never thought this hard, but his gaze had accidentally crossed with Yuki. It made Ling smile brightly, 'Damn, how can a cunning person like me be stupid in this matter, obviously I have a dance partner in front of my eyes.' Inner Ling while smiling at Yuki.
Yuki who felt her master smiling towards her only covered her embarrassment with a fake smile.
Suddenly, the lights in the restaurant went off. On a stage, now looks an old man whose suit looks very neat and certainly very expensive.
"Everyone, you must know me, right? All right, no need for further ado, I'm here to say that! the dance will begin, please pair up with each other."
Right after, the lights that illuminated her died and the sound of party music rang out. The lights also started to come back on, but the lights were colorful. Ling stood up and looked at Yuki, he then advanced towards her.
"Yuki, I want you to dance with me, do you mind?"
"Eh, ah, I don't mind sir." Yuki smiled answering Ling's question.
"Good, then..."
Ling walked up to Yuki, but just in front of her, Ling remembered that she had never danced at all.
Seeing the strangeness of his master, Yuki asked Ling, "Master, what's wrong?"
"I'm sorry, I don't actually understand how to dance." Ling said as he scratched his non-itchy head.
Yuki was surprised to hear Ling's statement, he almost laughed when he heard it.
"Ah, what if we start from the basic movement?"
"It's okay, I don't mind."
Yuki also begins to teach Ling how to dance. But while teaching Ling, Yuki gets into trouble because Ling makes a lot of mistakes. But it did not upset Yuki, he was happy because now he was very close to Ling. Honestly, Yuki kept a heart for Ling, it was Ling's assertive and friendly nature that made Yuki retain the flavor.
Slowly, Ling was already starting to understand. Ling held the back rib of Yuki and one hand held the other. Yuki himself put the other hand on Ling's shoulder.
Eventually, they started to enjoy the dance. The sound of the violin and other musical instruments was great for Ling who had never heard the sound. Suddenly, the voice of a woman began to sound throughout the restaurant.
His voice is very melodious, especially when combined with music. His voice became even better and of course made the atmosphere more boisterous.
