"Do you want to go say hello?"
"I am terribly humbled..."
Just as they were still talking, someone suddenly pushed past them and walked towards Asmodeus.
"Get out of the way!" A heavily made-up female demon walked up to Asmodeus and introduced herself, followed by a slightly dark-skinned female demon and a female demon in a qipao.
"Hello, it's a pleasure to meet you for the first time, Lord Asmodeus Alice!"
Asmodeus bowed slightly out of politeness.
"It's a pleasure to meet you."
"My name is Wubalu Lulu. I have long admired Lord Eris's reputation! It's a great honor to meet you. Ah, I also saw you at the amusement park."
"Ah... Mmm-hmm," Asmodeus was a little surprised by her enthusiasm.
Suddenly, Wubalu Lulu waved to the slightly dark-skinned female demon behind her.
"Hey, drinks!"
The female demon immediately stumbled over and handed her a drink.
"Please, let's... um, talk aside..." However, before Wubalu Lulu could finish, a voice suddenly interrupted.
"Asmodeus?" They all turned their heads and saw Ameri, dressed in a gown, looking their way.
"What a coincidence," Ameri gestured with her hand.
Eris was already eye-catching enough, but the moment Ameri appeared, everyone's attention was drawn to Ameri.
Wubalu Lulu was also excited to see Ameri.
"Lord Azazel Ameri? How lucky!"
"Student Council President?" Asmodeus was also a little surprised. He didn't expect the Student Council President to come. Well, it was a noble gathering after all... "Speaking of which, if you're here, then is it...?" Ameri looked around.
"Lord Iruma and Lord Shesi are not here," Asmodeus said, knowing what Ameri meant.
Wubalu Lulu felt immense pressure watching Ameri and Asmodeus chatting.
"An atmosphere that's hard to intrude upon... Never mind, step back," Wubalu Lulu said to the slightly dark-skinned female demon next to her.
"Ah... Is that so... really?" Ameri felt a little disappointed. She had originally come because Shesi went to a mixer. Although she had stopped him, she was still annoyed, and then her father asked her if she wanted to come. In a fit of pique, she came... Seeing Asmodeus, she thought Iruma was here, and if Iruma was here, then Shesi would definitely be here too... It seems he's not here...
Wubalu Lulu looked at the two people chatting over there and then at the demon next to her.
"How clumsy."
Her companion also leaned in and said,
"Despite being of noble rank, he's only [1]."
"He's from the [Librarian] family, I think? Only knows how to read, how rustic," someone nearby said.
"In comparison, those two are truly dazzling~!" Wubalu Lulu exclaimed, then looked at the female demon's shawl.
"It's... becoming even more eye-catching..." Wubalu Lulu smiled.
"Hey, you, come here."
..."Is that so, forced to come by your mother?"
"Yes, my mother is very excited, it's troublesome. She usually doesn't come with me," Asmodeus explained.
"Could it be the same for the Student Council President?" Asmodeus asked curiously.
"Hmm... I suppose so, dragged here by my father..."
Upon hearing this, Asmodeus suddenly felt a sense of closeness to the Student Council President. People who share the same plight are like this.
"Everyone at the party is talking about the amusement park," Ameri suddenly heard the topic of conversation nearby and smiled.
"Indeed, those two are always the center of attention wherever they go," Asmodeus also smiled.
..."Mixer."
Silence.
At this moment, the slightly dark-skinned female demon suddenly walked up to Asmodeus.
"Um... would you please... dance with me...?" The female demon first covered her horns with her hand, then her mouth, as she spoke.
"Oh dear! Such crude attire... And you're only rank [1], yet you want to invite Lord Eris, who is rank [4]?" Wubalu Lulu immediately ran out and said.
Ameri immediately recognized them as the same group of people from earlier... And... did they steal this person's decoration? Ameri looked at the shawl on Wubalu Lulu.
"There's a limit to rudeness, isn't there?"
"Lord Eris, would you like to change your mood and dance with me?" Wubalu Lulu walked in front of Asmodeus and asked.
Ameri couldn't help but feel annoyed at this sight. After all, Ameri was the Student Council President of the school, and she instinctively wanted to stop such a thing. But before Ameri could speak, Asmodeus directly pulled over the girl who had invited him.
"Eh!? What?" Wubalu Lulu watched this scene in shock.
"That's a greeting... covering the horns and teeth with the hands is a sign of politeness, and the other party should accept it as a response, it's not rude. However, there's no need to be ashamed if you don't know ancient etiquette, it's just that she is more excellent. Fortunately, you know," Asmodeus said, looking at the girl in front of him.
The girl was clearly too excited for words, speaking in stutters.
"I... I saw it in a book... before."
"Then... I am Asmodeus Alice, a demon who values etiquette. Please allow me to return the courtesy with etiquette." Asmodeus took a small step forward with his left leg, then bowed and pulled the girl to begin dancing.
Midway through, the girl tried to speak several times but couldn't. Asmodeus, seeing this, comforted her.
"It's alright, just say what you want to say."
"...Um... I'm sorry, dancing with someone of my rank [1] has troubled Lord Asmodeus..."
Upon hearing this, Asmodeus suddenly thought of Iruma for some reason and began to laugh.
"The person I respect was also rank [1] at first."
"Eh?"
"Although I also believe rank is important, I still recognize demons who, even if their rank is not high, will still stand up for others. The value you possess is not only in your rank, and the proof is that your dance steps are very graceful."
The girl came to her senses just as the dance ended, followed by a huge round of applause.
"You danced very well."
"Your attire is also wonderful."
Asmodeus then returned to Ameri's side.
"You dance very well, did you fancy anyone?" A question came.
Asmodeus also smiled.
"The Student Council President also makes such jokes now."
"Eh, I didn't..."
Both of them paused, then looked in the direction of the voice, to see Shesi and Iruma, dressed in formal attire.
"Lord Shesi? Lord Iruma? What are you doing here?" Asmodeus asked in surprise.
"Of course, we're here to socialize. A Demon King can't just rely on military might, but also influence," Shesi explained while spearing a piece of steak and putting it in his mouth.
"Shesi! When did you get here?" Ameri asked, looking at Shesi in confusion. She, a rank [6] demon, hadn't even noticed him.
"Ah, it's this," Shesi said, pointing to the monocle he was wearing.
