I weave fate in parallel time and space

Chapter 7 I am just the opposite
Most of the people present knew the true purpose of the banquet, so at this moment, the man's actions, in their eyes, were simply audacious.

"who's that person?"

"I don't know, it seems to be a noble in the south."

"The same black hair as Alicia, I don't know if it is of ancient Roman descent, ancient Greek descent, or East Asian?"

"Is this the time to care about bloodlines? Does this bumpkin from the south know the rules?

Hopefully Prince Ernst won't be offended by this. "

People were discussing in low voices, and for a moment, this man became the focus of the entire banquet venue.

Alicia frowned, and then, the tip of her nose smelled a faint smell, which was the smell of ashes after the wood was burned in the stove.

This smell. I seem to have smelled it somewhere before.

She raised her head and subconsciously wanted to refuse, but for some reason, an unknown impulse made her nod her head slightly.

"Cough cough!!"

A woman choked on the drink and coughed violently. Except for the soft music, the whole courtyard was even a little quiet.

But immediately after, the third princess was silent for a moment, her plain hand was raised to touch the hand of the strange man, and the two of them came to the center of the courtyard slowly.

After a brief silence.

Although the eyes of the surrounding people still couldn't help but glance at this side, they also knew that if they kept staring at this moment, the atmosphere would become even more weird, so they also danced to the music.

It was a simple waltz, with both sides hugging each other, following the music, you take a step back and I take a step forward. Char is more fortunate that he can do it, but if it is a minuet or a court dance, it will be a bit of a headache.

In the original history, after the popular appearance of waltz, it was opposed and hindered for various purposes.

In addition to the church saying that it is immoral, uncivilized, even vulgar and evil, and unsightly because men and women hold each other close, and the movements are too fast, it is also regarded as a thorn in the eyes of people who used to teach minuet and other court dances for a living. , thorn in the flesh.

The easy-to-learn and free-spirited characteristics of waltz attract many dancers, and they can often learn it just by watching it for a while.This kind of dance does not need to master a large number of complicated tricks like minuet.

But in the conservative band at that time, many people even hated waltz and feared it like a tiger, and even said it was a kind of seductive dance.

Of course, with the progress of the times, this kind of waltz became more "elegant" later on. In the West at that time, it was actually a very common thing to invite women to dance, but it did have a communicative meaning in it.

The history of this world is different, but obviously, waltz should be popular earlier.

Xia Ya gently grabbed the princess's hand, put her arms around her waist, and felt the tight muscles through the clothes. Obviously, her dance partner was a little cramped. She kept her head down and remained silent, pretending to be calm.

Xia laughed.

"Although your eyes can't see, you dance surprisingly well."

The third princess was silent for a while and said, "Music is one of the few pleasures I can enjoy."

After a pause, she said, "Have we met before?"

"Your memory is also very good," Xia Ya praised.

Alicia recalled, "On the street just outside?"

"I've never owed favors." Xia said with a smile.

"You think this is helping me?"

"Isn't it? You seem very impatient with that prince." Xia Ya grabbed her hand and led her around.

"Then do you know that he may become my fiance in the near future?"

"I was eating with two women next to me, and within 15 minutes I had a lot of gossip about you Britannian aristocrats."

Xia Ya teased.

"For example, I know that Duke Panacea's first wife cheated on her bodyguard, and she seems to have a child."

"Prince Panacea and the lady are both caged birds bound by the cage called the family, unable to decide their own fate.

Their marriage, from the beginning, was a tragedy. Alicia whispered.

She didn't seem to want to continue this topic, but continued what she said before.

"In that case, how dare you invite me to dance?"

Shaar smiled, "I think the size of the future heir to the West French Empire should not be so small, right? It's just a dance."

"You can see his expression now."

Xia Ya glanced at it from the corner of his eye, he raised his eyebrows and nodded.

"He looked like he was going to eat me."

There was a bit of ridicule in Xia Ya's tone, and this funny tone made her laugh a little.

But after a pause, she continued.

"Those who can come in to participate in this banquet are either high-ranking officials or nobles, and even ordinary nobles are not eligible to enter.

But if you are one of them, it is impossible for you to be outside without a guard.

Who are you? "

"I'm a homeless person who came in to pick up seats." Shaar said.

"The savory cakes here are delicious," he commented.

"The pastry chef for the banquet was personally invited by Duke Panacea to the palace for this banquet. Few people pay attention to the food at the banquet, and he is the only one who cares about these details."

"It sounds like he attaches great importance to this banquet." Xia Ya said.

"Yes, after all, we have to receive distinguished guests from foreign countries." Alicia murmured softly.

After a pause, she said, "I'm sorry, I don't know why I agreed to your request and involved you.

I don't know how you got into the banquet, but I advise you to leave quickly after the ball is over, leave the imperial capital, otherwise, bad things will happen. "

"Because I just used magic." Shaar said calmly.

Alicia naturally thought that Shaar was joking, she laughed, "I really seemed to be under magic just now."

"You don't seem to like all of this." Xia looked at her, "Then why...don't you resist?"

The queen's chin was slightly closed, she was silent for a moment, and continued.

"We are all sailing alone on the sea of ​​destiny, unable to control its direction, and can only let the waves rise and fall, taking us to an unknown distance.

There are things in this world that are destined to be unchangeable.

People always have to learn to accept fate. "

There are no ups and downs in Alicia's words, she has long accepted it all.

Xia smiled, "You look young on the outside, but you are already seventy or eighty on the inside."

"I just understood all this in advance, and saved a lot of unnecessary time and energy, and made everyone worry."

The music also stopped at this moment, and the people dancing around, including Xia and the third princess, all stopped. Xia watched her and continued to speak.

"I'm the exact opposite."

Alicia raised her head. Although the upper half of her face was covered by the gorgeous crown-like mask, her expression could not be seen clearly, but the slightly raised chin could make people see the doubts in her heart.

"I don't think destiny is absolute. No matter where the waves take us, the dawn of the next day will come as promised."

There was a slight smile on Shaar's face.

"Nice to meet you, Your Majesty.

Remember my name, my name is .
Char. "

After finishing speaking, Alicia could feel that the person in front of her let go of her hand, and then took a step back, a short white line slipped across her heart.

But also at that moment.

he disappeared
Smell, sound, anything that could detect his presence, disappeared in her world
"Alicia, are you okay?"

Ernst's voice came from one side, asking worriedly and eagerly.

Alicia didn't answer, just continued to ask.

"Where's the guy who danced with me just now?"

"I don't know. I just walked into the crowd and disappeared in the blink of an eye." Ernst looked around and said.

Alicia frowned, but soon, she heard hurried footsteps coming from inside the villa, as well as vaguely frightened and trembling breathing.

What followed was a loud roar.

"No, the Marquis of Oss is gone!!!"
