Chapter 260: Dance Of The Servants

"Are you sure you wish to change partners, your Highness? I'm quite the seasoned dancer." Remarked Illumia with a faint smirk as she looked up at Elif, holding his shoulders while the two slowly danced to the rhythm of the music, which was beginning to come to an end.

"I'm sure an experienced lady such as yourself is decently proficient in a large number of activities, though it would be quite rude for you to monopolize such a young man such as myself, don't you think so, Illumia?" Replied Elif with a slight smile as he leaned down and whispered into Illumia's ear while lowering his hand onto her large, plump butt befitting of her Succubus heritage.

"Ho, what is that supposed to mean, your Highness? Do tell me what activities you think I'm proficient in. If you guess correctly, I don't mind showing; I'll even give you a more hands-on lesson." Asked Illumia with a seductive grin as she leaned deeper in Elif's embrace, squishing her large breasts against his torso while she lightly kissed his cheek, causing him to smirk.

"Hehe, out of genuine curiosity, are you still pure, Illumia?" Asked Elif curiously with a raised eyebrow and stood upright, softly squeezing Illumia's butt while she seemed slightly taken aback.

"As Ironic as it may sound, I am still pure despite being half Succubus." Replied Illumia with a nod while softly blushing in embarrassment and shame.

"Really? Well, if it weren't for Elaine, I'd have long since taken your first time, and who knows, maybe it'll still happen in the future." Remarked Elif with a nod and a faint seductive smile as he squeezed Illumia's butt one last time before leaning down and kissing her lips.

I had ensured Elaine wasn't paying attention before initiating the kiss with Illumia; I didn't need her to be jealous of Illumia, especially since we'd become one tonight. Once the song stopped playing a few seconds later, I removed my hands from her butt and retracted my lips, only to see Illumia standing there with a noticeable blush, causing me to slight smile as he lifted her chin up, forcing her to look into my eyes.

"Heh, it seems like the student has surpassed the teacher. Wouldn't you say so, Illumia?" Asked Elif with a mischievous smirk as he brushed Illumia's hair to the side and used his thumb to rub her thick lips.

"I-I don't know about that yet, your Highness; o-one or two instances isn't enough to decide whether your skills have surpassed mine." Stated Illumia shyly as she stared at Elif's lips with a hungry gaze, only for him to place a finger atop her mouth, silencing her.

"Later Illumia, I've still got a few other women I'd like to dance with." Replied Elif lightly as he turned around and walked away just as the new song started, only for him to glance back at Illumia and playfully wink at her.

Leaving Illumia to her own devices, I walked through the crowd while constantly refusing numerous dances from women; some of them were even women from the previous generation, which slightly took me aback as I didn't expect they'd be so bold in such a public setting; either, after refusing countless woman, I finally approached the woman I was looking for.

"Do you need something, your Highness?" Asked Mandy curiously with a slight bow while standing next to the wall as she looked at Elif, who smirked before grabbing her hand and bringing her out to the dancing floor.

"Yes, I need you; come and dance with me, Mandy." Replied Elif lightly, though given the large height difference, he was forced to dance by holding both of Mandy's hands.

"E-Eh, a-are sure, your HIghnes? I'm just a guard; besides, there must be numerous women who are more beautiful than me." Replied Mandy with a slight blush of embarrassment as she looked up at Elif before eyeing her surroundings, noticing the numerous women staring at her in envy.

"You're the Captain of the Crown Prince's personal guards; you're not just a guard, Mandy. The only Royal Guard with greater authority than you is the Titled General of the Royal Guards, General of the Center, General Clospe." Remarked Elif seriously as he eyed Mandy before bonking her head, causing her to hesitate, though she was still quite shy.

"Speaking of General Clsope, do you know when he'll emerge from his closed-door Cultivation? I've heard he hasn't left for nearly a millennium; I'm decently interested in him." Added Elif curiously as he tilted his head and glanced at Mandy while the two danced, though it was apparent she wasn't that used to such activities.

"No, I had become a Royal Guard trainee a few centuries before he entered closed-dor Cultivation, so I had only seen him twice; once when he gave the group of trainee Royal Guards a speech, and the other was purely coincidental." Replied Mandy with a thoughtful expression before shaking her head, only to nearly squeal in surprise when she was spun.

"Hmm, I see." Muttered Elif with a nod as he stopped spinning Illumia by her arm before reeling her into his embrace, hugging her, only to continue dancing like normal.

"Y-You're pretty skilled at this, Your Highness." Said Mandy lightly as she released a breath she was holding while using her Qi to brush her hair aside.

"It's not my first ball; you know that, Mandy." Said Elif with a wink as he continued to dance with Mandy, making various moves together, which gathered the nearby audience's attention.

"This is fun, wouldn't you agree?" Asked Elif as he looked down at Mandy, who he was holding by her back and leg while her hair hung down, touching the floor.

"Y-Yeah." Replied Mandy with a nod, smiling as Elif pulled her back up onto her two feet.

Smirking, I leaned down and kissed Mandy on the cheek before turning around and walking away to find another partner as the current song had stopped playing; leaving a blushing Mandy behind, I approached Marley and Idonea in the distance, who were, to my dismay, dancing together.

"Well, well, well, what do we have here?" Asked Elif with a teasing smirk as he rested his hands on Marley and Idonea's shoulders, causing them to stop dancing before swiftly backing away from each other.

"N-Nothing, your Highness; w-we were merely practicing for whenever we got the opportunity to dance with you." Replied Marley with a blush as she quickly responded, rapidly nodding while Idonea silently agreed, causing Elif to skeptically raise an eyebrow before shaking his head.

"Anyways, will my two lovely followers dance with me?" Asked Elif with a slight smile as he grabbed each of their hands before bringing them closer into his embrace.

"Both of us, your Highness?" Asked Idonea with a raised eyebrow as she looked up at Elif, who nodded and started dancing with Marley, not even bothering to question.

"Yes, why not?" Said Elif with a raised eyebrow, causing Idonea to nod before lightly dancing as well.

Dancing with two people wasn't easy, nor was I doing that well; I have participated in a few balls, but I'm far from being an excellent dancer, so I'm sure our movements looked a little weird, but I was enjoying myself so I wasn't the least bit concerned.

"So, seeing as Elaine and I will be making love tonight, I hope you didn't place a crystal ball in my room to record everything, Marley." Remarked Elif lightly as he eyed Marley, who went stiff for a split second before continuing to dance while avoiding eye contact.

"Marley." Added Elif as he squinted his eyes at Marley, who awkwardly coughed before sporting a cute smile.

"Haa, you're unbelievable, you know that, Marley. When we're finished dancing, go and remove the crystal balls from my room, as well as the ones you've probably put in Elaine's room. I will not have our first time recorded for you to pleasure yourself to; besides, you've seen me naked plenty of times before." Stated Elif with a sigh of disappointment as he shook his head before glaring at Marley, who hung her head down while reluctantly nodding.

"Haa, yes, your Highness." Replied Marley with a sullen expression, which quickly vanished with a kiss from Elif on the cheek.

"You can be sad later, don't ruin my fun right now." Said Elif as he eyed Marley, who was slightly smiling and dancing with even more vigor than before.

Hearing Idonea clearing her throat, I glanced over at her and saw her boldly staring at me, or more specifically, my lips, causing me to roll my eyes before kissing her on the cheek as well, prompting her to smile. Shaking my head slightly, I ignored their antics and continued dancing together for the remainder of the song before eventually separating from the two, though not before intently eyeing Marley.

"Remember to remove those crystal balls, or I'll punish you, Marley." Declared Elif as he slapped Marley's butt, launching her toward the entrance of the dining room before walking through the crowd once more.

Refusing numerous women once more, I spotted Sarah in the distance, also refusing several men as she went to sit down at the table in the center.

"I'm sorry, but I'm not dancing to this song." Stated Sara gently with a smile when she noticed someone standing beside her.

"Ho, to think someone would be audacious to refuse this Prince. Has my heavenly charms begun to fail me?" Remarked Elif lightly with a raised eyebrow as he looked at himself on the back of Quạt tay, which was made out of reflective silver.
