18. Ballroom of Temptation (1)
Leaving behind Baek Yu-seol and the clash of the captain’s blade spider, the students finally made their way down all the stairs.
The ballroom was held on the first floor of the clock tower, so I was able to join as soon as I went down the stairs, but Hong Bi-yeon stopped just before.
“•••I need to adjust my clothes for a while. You’re a little girl that doesn’t suit a banquet.”
Everyone was in a mess because they had been fighting fierce battles while wearing their dresses.
Hong Bi-yeon arranged the students’ clothes with skillful hands. The torn part was daringly ripped off to make it look like a short dress, and some parts were covered with accessories.
Full-frame looked at her with new eyes.
‘Is Heung Bi-yeon like that in the original?’
Well. I remember that there was no such scene.
‘Something… … Has it changed?’
If it was originally, by now, Hong Bi-yeon should have been plotting something because she was jealous of Azel’s resourcefulness.
“tt, you look like a beggar.”
“what?”
Of course, in the meantime, I had to help out with a word, but it was a problem.
“This is enough to make me look good, so let’s go.”
Princess Hong Bi-yeon took the lead and entered the ballroom, and the students followed along with tense expressions.
“Wow… …
However, as soon as I entered the interior, someone exclaimed without me knowing. It deserved it. It was so glamorous that I could not even think of it as a banquet held in a single mansion.
A chandelier that shines brightly hanging in the air, masked ears dancing while holding each other’s hands in the light
tribes.
At the end was a podium adorned with a beautiful staircase, yet no one was standing.
The students quietly hid into the ball. It was a familiar melody, so it wasn’t difficult to dance.
‘This… It’s the music I’ve heard before.’
‘You must have danced this dance at this time.’
Let’s just sit quietly listening to music that feels somehow familiar.
bang! Tatang!
Immediately after, with a loud sound effect
Some lights were turned off and all the spotlights were focused on the podium in front.
It’s quiet.
All the noisy nobles were silent. As if they had been waiting for the main character to appear.
In the dark, a woman walks gracefully over the lights.
Again, again!
Perhaps she is the final boss of this world, Duchess of Aiharen.
However, the Duchess was not wearing a mask, and the students faced her and opened their eyes wide in surprise.
there was no
‘for a moment. that face… …
‘Stand, please… … ?’
yet.
The Duchess of Aiharen opens her mouth, and utters unbelievable words.
“Nice to meet you, everyone. This is Zeki Aiha Ren.”
She was none other than ‘Jecky’.
“•••Uh, how?”
“Nonsense… …
Again!
As the students murmured, Jeki smiled and gracefully bowed his head.
It was a move that was not perfect and even elegant, but it didn’t suit me at all. The full frame dyed his complexion pale.
‘How the hell did this happen?’
This development did not exist at all in the ‘original Ropan’. No, in the first place, a character named Zeki did not appear in the original Ropan, but an ordinary human becomes an ‘NPC’ in the Persona Gate.
that in itself is impossible.
By the way, not just becoming an NPC, but even becoming the final boss.
‘no way… …
There are some beings who can become NPCs in the Persona Gate.
That’s right, the ‘black man’.
That’s right.
‘Jeky… You said it was a black demon…?’
At the unbelievable development, she bit her lip and hurriedly looked around.
“ wow r
“Wheeyu! Duchess! You are beautiful today!”
“What should I do, I think I’m going to fall in love with a girl… …
Noble NPCs were crazy about their height. And, a guideline message that appears in front of the students.
[The Duchess of Aiharen has appeared!]
[The state of the nobles is strange. It seems that I have been possessed by the magic of the Duchess.]
[I thought that many nobles had disappeared and were found in the Duchess’s mansion… … This secret must be hidden.]
The story began to be organized.
[There is only one way to fight her.]
[Dance a more beautiful dance than the Duchess of Aiharen, to bring the nobles to mind!]
“what… You want me to dance?”
“Suddenly dancing… …
While the students panicked, the enthusiasm of the aristocrats grew stronger.
“Hey Haren! Ayharen!”
“Please, just smile at me this way!”
“Aww!! The Duchess waved her hand!”
“Honey, it seems that I have come to love the Duchess of Aiharen more than you do.”
“Alas, to give the duchess the love of her husband. It is the greatest honor for me.”
“I will give my heart!”
Enthusiasm to such an extent that it cannot be considered sane. Jeki waved his hand toward the NPC nobles, raised the corners of his mouth, and slowly descended the stairs of the stage.
‘Oh, it’s thrilling.’
All beings are enthusiastic about their appearance. Look at that warm welcome. Doesn’t it feel like being the main character?
Slowly crossing the nobility, moving to the center of the ballroom, Jeki’s relaxed gaze came to stand among the students.
looked around with
Then, a student came out.
“Come on, that’s fine! My goal this time is to dance more beautiful than Duchess Aiha Ren. It’s easy if you’re the Duchess of Aiharen, right? Help us win!”
OK.
stand tall.
All music and fuss ceased. One of the lights that was illuminating Jeki moved, approached and lit up the cheeky student.
Everyone on the left looked coldly at that crane
started sending it to life. Jake raised his chin up, covered his mouth with a fan, and said.
“… … Why should I?”
“What, what… ?”
The tone was so cool that I thought it was the same classmate I knew before. The students intuitively felt the aura of death in her.
“Huhu.”
However, Jake laughed. Even in the midst of exuding a dizzying amount of life as if it would tear her skin at any moment, she was able to afford it.
Then, with exaggerated gestures as if in a play, he circled the ballroom and said:
“Everyone, what should I do with that rude person?”
The reaction returned immediately.
“dare!”
“Death!”
“Take it out!”
“You’re speaking remarks to the Duchess!”
“I’ll pull out my tongue myself!”
“Ahahahaha!”
Seeing the nobles who acted as if they were willing to give even their heart to one word of their own, Jeki burst out laughing out loud.
Then, standing tall, he covered his mouth with a fan again and smiled.
“no. I am benevolent, and I am content to kick that student out of this place.”
“Ah, this is also Duchess of Aiharen… …
“How can you even have such a kind heart?”
“Great. Shame on me for uttering savage remarks!”
Before long, the knights came out and grabbed the boy by the back of the neck who had spoken to Zeki and dragged him out.
“Wait, wait! Why are you doing this, ah ah ah ah!”
Thump!
After the boy was expelled, the front door was firmly shut, and the atmosphere subsided heavily.
No one could understand this situation.
Why did Jeki become the final boss?
But why don’t you cooperate?

Could it be that the final boss lost control of his body?‘… … no. That’s not right.’
That girl is definitely Jackie. They are moving on their own will. Full frame could be certain.
‘Is this the reason Baek Yu-seol told me to be careful about that child?’
I’ve been staying with Jeki and checking the status in detail, but the omens of black magic didn’t exist at all.
That being said, it must have been that some ‘seed’ had been thrown into her by someone else.
In addition, the moment he entered this space, he was completely awakened as a demon.
Full-frame shouted with one last hope.
“Jecky, please calm down. If you immerse yourself in its power, you might turn into a terrible figure!”
“under! bullshit! Are you jealous of my popularity?”
“No, not like that! I’m really worried about you… …
“Shut up, full frame. If you envy my charm
tell me you’re jealous Look, everyone loves me, right? You’re looking at me, not you.”
Wrong.
His mind was already firmly eroded by the black horse. I even got deeply engrossed in the ‘role play’ of Persona Gate, so persuasion seemed to be of no use at all.
There is only one way left.
All you have to do is win the dance showdown, take away the power of temptation, and return it to its original form.
‘okay… Nothing has changed.’
Defeating Zeki, even if he comes to his senses
You just have to make rock.
“Okay then! Shall we all start the party together?”
Standing in the center of the ballroom, Jeki shouted with his arms outstretched high in the sky, and thunderous shouts erupted.
“Wow!”
“Wheeyu”
“Hey Haren! Ayharen!”
Everyone in the audience cheers for her.
astonishing
My head, my heart, my heart, it feels like it will melt.
The feeling of being noticed by people was accompanied by such an exhilarating feeling.
”Hey.”
Jeki, who let out a heated moan, looked back at his full frame with a blushing face and adorable eyes.
“Flame, my flame… …
She, with a slightly chilled throat
The sound was told so that only the full frame could hear it.
“you… … Were you in control of this awesome feeling?”
“♦••What?”
“You were really bad. It’s selfish. Look, it’s so sweet. It’s exciting, it’s fun I don’t think I will ever forget it.”
oh
While he was talking, Zeki realized something and licked his lips with an alluring smile.
“… … No, I will never miss this.”
In this place, I too can live in full cheer as the most beautiful being in the world forever.
I don’t want to go out. With such a fantastic place, why do you have to help them?
In this world, even that full frame, even Azel, even Hong Bi-yeon! It’s just a midday extra… … .
It’s heaven.
A world just for me.
A stage just for me.
“Full frame? Won’t you dance with me?”
I could feel a lot of rhythms, music, songs and dances in my head. Even though it was Jeki who had never learned to dance in her life, it seemed that she could perform the most elegant and beautiful dance at this moment.
Tack, Tack!
As she lightly stepped on the steps, sparks of black magical power bounced off the floor. Whoops! Raising a magic circle of burning flames in dark red, Jeki spoke elegantly.
“It would be better to attack with all your might.
As far as here, I have no intention of losing to you.”
[Before the boss, ‘The Ball of Temptation’ has begun.]
She doesn’t consider the fact that this world is inside the Stella Academy and even if she defeated them, the faculty wouldn’t let this gate just hang there without destroying it does she? Sooner or later that gate would be subjugated.
