Duriel's Room (Three in One)

The banquet ended up being quite boring. Abel's status was too high, so even if all the ladies presented wanted to talk to him, they wouldn't be able to come close to him. There were simply too many people of noble status that were talking to him at once.

There was something rather odd that Abel noticed. Nobody from the St. Ellis Royal Family was here. They would usually be here if he was attending, but it was just royal families from the other two human empires for today. This was rather special, in any case.

The rules of a banquet were quite simple: no serious matters should be discussed. Because of this, Abel, Duke Chesterton, and Emperor Aldous were all talking about trivial matters the whole time. The other two were sipping on fine red wine, while Abel drank water spirit juice as they talked about various topics.
