"I appreciate Your Highness's praise, but..." Mr. Cyclone started speaking, but immediately got into trouble.

Little Dragon, standing on the side, also couldn't help but sweat profusely when Mr. Cyclone used a aggressive tone.

"Hahahaha!" On the contrary, Daniel behind Elyse laughed unusually happily.

"Heh..." As a result, even Elyse couldn't help but laugh.

"It seems that Mr. Cyclone is too nervous," Daniel maintained his gentlemanly demeanor and carefully defended Mr. Cyclone.

"As rumored, he is not only a hero of the nation, but also a farmer's son," Elyse's words implied that she already knew about Mr. Cyclone's background.

At the same time, Daniel added, "He has successfully killed the wicked Prime Minister and made great contributions during the rebellion in Sunset City. Mr. Cyclone is indeed a talent."

"Oh?"

"Yes." With curious eyes, Elyse took another step forward.

At close range, Mr. Cyclone and Elyse's gazes overlapped. The reflection of each other's figure could be seen in their eyes, the beautiful red evening dress, revealing Elyse's abdomen on one side and lifting her well-endowed chest on the other.

Although slightly taller than Mr. Cyclone, Elyse's perfect chest occupied his entire field of vision, making Mr. Cyclone feel pleased.

Red was the main color of the evening dress, accompanied by black. The black gloves and black stockings on Elyse's almost snow-white skin seemed like a layer of impurity, making one have an impulse to wipe away the impurity and soil it with her own white color.

"So... would the honorable hero like to dance with this young lady?" "Of course~" Mr. Cyclone, like a gentleman, extended his hand, wanting to take Elyse's hand as the lead dancer. Elyse gracefully extended her gloved right hand, gently placing it in Mr. Cyclone's palm.

According to Mr. Cyclone's limited knowledge, the man should take the lady's hand at this time and tightly hold it in his palm.

But Princess Elyse suddenly pulled him forcefully towards her, completely catching Mr. Cyclone off guard.

In an instant, the two of them were embracing like lovers. The fragrance emanating from Elyse's long hair directly hit Mr. Cyclone's brain. Moreover, they were now embracing, and the feeling of her soft arms against his was even more palpable than holding Little Dragon.

"Daniel has already told me about the mediocre dance skills of Lord Theodore," Elyse said. "You... you already knew?" "Mhmm~ Relax, Lord Theodore. This young lady will lead the dance for you." "Oh, okay~" Seeing Daniel semi-genuinely revealing information, Mr. Cyclone immediately recalled his acting in front of Gubas that day.

Yes, Mr. Cyclone was overthinking now. At this moment, he should just treat the princess as he did with Gubas, leading her into his trap with a semi-real self.

The nervousness suddenly flew away. Led by the princess, Mr. Cyclone skillfully completed the dance, bathed in the beauty of lights and music.

"Amazing, just as expected of the princess!" Countless applause resounded from all around as Alan's hero and the beautiful princess performed the dance together.

The second song started, and with the princess's slender waist in his arms, Mr. Cyclone was filled with confidence.

But then, he accidentally stepped on the princess's foot.

However, Elyse gracefully turned around, forcefully covering up Mr. Cyclone's mistake.

In the eyes of the general public, Elyse just performed splendidly.

But in the astute eyes of Daniel, Elyse excellently concealed Mr. Cyclone's mistake."I-I'm sorry..."

"It's okay, it's just that I didn't guide you properly."

Damn it!

Mr. Cyclone was shocked by what just happened, but the reason for the shock was not stepping on Elyse.

After going through special training to avoid stepping on his partner, in that instant, Mr. Cyclone was more aware than anyone else present.

But wait! I clearly dodged just now!

Why did she put her foot back there?

Only Mr. Cyclone saw the smirking face, and Elyse unconsciously revealed a mischievous smile.

With that slightly intoxicated smile, Mr. Cyclone was sure that Elyse deliberately put her foot there to be stepped on.

Cold sweat started to trickle down his back, and Mr. Cyclone swallowed his saliva.

This person...very dangerous!!
