The Party Part 2

"I'm sorry if I would be rude to you guys, but Yuki is really not a bad person in fact she is kind, she is just a cold and aloof person. And I cannot accept it if you guys are being rude to her, because if not for her I would never reach Peak Tier of Essence Lord, plus she is a kind person as long as you are on her good side. So please, on behalf of our long friendship, I hope you can at least not be rude to Yuki, or else." Anna looked at Sora and Carlos with clear disgust in her eyes even though she tried to hide it.

"What are you really going to side with that b*tch!?" Carlos said as anger took control over him and he held Anna's shoulder.

"What the hell do you think you're doing!?" Sylvie said she then slapped Carlos arms away and hugged Anna's body who was quivering.

Anna didn't expect for Carlos to hurt her, even though he probably didn't mean it. It hurt Anna's feelings more.

Yuki who was watching this silently had a cold look under her mask, by now her surroundings were extremely cold. Everyone who passed Yuki's table started to shiver in the cold.

"No, I'm sorry I didn't mean to hurt you." Carlos said, he then slapped himself to say sorry. He then moved forward and tried to hold Anna's hand.

"It's okay, I just hope that you guys accept my decision of accepting Yuki as my friend." Anna slowly backed away.

When Carlos saw this, he had a solemn look on his face. It was a clear rejection from her, he also realised that he now has no chance of getting Anna as a lover.

'F*ck, why did I do that?!' Carlos cursed himself.

"Alright, enough of that. Let's just go sit now, I'm pretty tired now after walking and standing for a while." Eren said to try to lighten up the mood around them. All of them nodded and followed Anna to Yuki's table.

"Yes, come follow me. But I do have a request, if you can please don't disturb Yuki when you guys sit at the table, alright?" Anna stopped for a second and looked at them, she then waited for their answer.

"Yes, we swear we will not disturb her." All of them said at the same time. But Sylvie suddenly raised her hand and asked Anna a question.

"Do you think I will be able to talk to her? I want to ask a question." Sylvie askd, she then eyed Yuki who was just sitting there quietly.

"Yes, you don't need to be afraid, but I cannot guarantee you that she will answer you. If it's related to her, then you will have no chance of getting your answer, but as for the other I don't know. But just don't try to bring out the topic of family to her." Anna warned Sylvie.

"Can we sit here?" Finally they arrived at Yuki's table, Anna asked for permission first.

"Do what you guys want. Just don't be too noisy." Yuki answered in an aloof voice, she then signalled the waiter and grabbed another glass of wine. Yuki took off her mask and started to sip her wine while looking at the distance,

Almost everyone in the group found Yuki's attitude very rude, but they kept their mouths shut for the sake of Anna.

"Don't worry we will." Anna smiled and turned to her friends and started talking about random things, they also caught up on the news that had been happening. After 30 minutes, Yuki was already bored and wanted to leave, but she endured it and just drank her sixth glass of wine.

"Aren't you drinking too much?" Anna, who was watching Yuki, suddenly spoke with concern.

"Don't worry about me." Yuki waves her hand.

"Umm, Miss Yuki. Is it alright if I ask you a question?" Sylvie asked, she wasn't able to talk to Yuki as she was nervous, but now that Anna started she also talked to Yuki.

"Go on ahead." Yuki answered, which delighted Anna and Sylvie.

"May I know how you suddenly got a power boost when you fight Andrew?" Sylvien asked with a nervous tone, of course she is nervous as this kind of question would reveal someone's trump card.

"What are you asking her?!" Anna suddenly stood up and covered Sylvie's mouth.

"You don't have to answer her, Yuki. It's stupid for someone to ask their hidden or best skill." Anna tried to persuade Yuki to not answer.

"Don't worry, it's fine." Yuki shrugged and continued. "All I'm gonna say is that it's related to the night." Yuki answered, of course she is not going to say the full details of her "Moon Prowess" but Yuki can already tell that they will naturally know it.

"What night?" Sylvie mutters to herself and begins to think of possible theories, Anna was also shocked that Yuki was willing to give her secret to someone who is basically a stranger to her.

"Is it related to the star? Wait no, there is always a star even if it's day time. Is it an Aurora in the sky? Was there an aurora that happened when Miss Yuki fought?" Sylvie turned to Eren and asked.

"I don't think so." Eren said uncertainty. Suddenly Saki intervened and said , "Have you forgotten that an Aurora is a rare phenomenon?" Saki looked at Sylvie.

"Oh yeah you're right." All of them then began to talk about what made Yuki stronger. Meanwhile Yuki who was listening couldn't believe that they still couldn't know what it was.

"I take my words back, these guys are much more stupid that I thought." Yuki laughed to herself.

When they heard laughter, all of them turned their heads to Yuki who was laughing quietly to herself.

"This arrogant b*tch!" Carlos and Sora, who was the most hostile towards Yuki, cursed in their minds.

"Is it about the Moon?" Carla suddenly raised her voice which quieted down their talking.

"Looks like someone doesn't have the brain of a dog here." Yuki eyed the two and sighed.

"What did you say-" Before Carlos could explode, he was held down by Eren.

"Don't."

"Yeah, why didn't I think of that? I really am stupid, of course it's the moon. Wait but doesn't mean that every time the moon is out, your power increases. Isn't that a little ridiculous?" Sylvie looked at her teammates and shivered, just thinking about that kind of Skill is terrifying as you are strong when it is night.

They were half right, but Yuki doesn't want to trouble herself to tell them. Since Yuki's "Moon Prowess" is only activated in a full Moon. This actually weirded Yuki, as Yuki knows that a Full Moon only occurs on rare occasions.

Suddenly everyone heard a loud voice of an announcer.

"Welcome everyone, we are gathered here today to celebrate the Ranking Up of Miss Yuki to a SS Class Adventurer." She then pointed to where Yuki was sitting. At this moment Yuki had already hidden her face with the mask and stood up.

"Thanks." Yuki said one word and sat back down.

Everyone was absolutely shocked by Yuki's attitude, even Anna was stunned. Even though she knew that Yuki was like this, she didn't expect this kind of answer. She expected Yuki to at least say a few more words, but they got just one.

King Dagart held his forehead in frustration when he saw how Yuki acted.

"Umm, alright. Then could we please invite Miss Yuki here to say a few words to the people who are watching. To at least inspire them to become as great as you." The announcer said.

Before Yuki could refuse, she heard multiple voices in her head.

"Don't you dare refuse, or else don't expect me to give you what you ask for." King Dagart warned

"Do it Yuki." Rory and Aria looked at Yuki and said through talisman

"Please, Miss Yuki don't refuse." Princess Lian also pleaded.

"Fine." Yuki stood up and walked to the middle.
