Chapitre 172: Devil's presence

Music Recommendation: Emma is bored - Isobel Waller

—

Dante and Anastasia's wedding celebration continued until late into the evening, with guests only starting to disperse from the main hall as the night wore on. The guests scattered throughout the palace and its grounds, taking this opportunity to mingle with eligible suitors in the hopes of settling down. While some individuals actively searched for potential life partners, there were others who chose to patiently wait to meet their soulmates. 

"Ginger Blackthorn," the Devil addressed the Mother Queen as he came to stand before her. "You have been busy."

Though the Mother Queen had noticed the Devil the moment he arrived, she had been engrossed in conversation with her other guests. She remarked, "I didn't know you were waiting for me to talk to you. It is good to know that my invitation reached you. I had begun to worry that it had gotten lost, as you missed the wedding ceremony."
