Rimuru POV

Time passed more and more in that realm, had passed in a blink of an eye. In that short amount of time, Arthur made great strides in his training, finally managing to access his first phase. Despite this, he still couldn't transform last long enough to use it in combat. Fortunately, Gramps taught him how to conceal his beast will, making it impossible for other mages to detect him. The assimilation also allowed him to cultivate his mana at astonishing speeds.

We trained hard with each other, especially in deviant magic. Arthur even asked me to help him unlock his affinities, which I agreed to immediately. I had reached the light yellow stage, while Arthur was in the light red, close to reaching the dark orange stage.

Alea, Aya, Gramps, and Tess learned 'Mana rotation' from me, and then I taught them 'Mirage Walk.' Everyone, including Arthur, managed to master the technique after a lot of hard work. The only one who couldn't quite grasp it was Tess, but she was making progress.

The rest of my training was focused on Alea and Aya, who both became stronger through their hard work. Aya also taught me the art of illusion magic, while I tried to learn plant magic from Alea with little success so far.

As for Sylvie, she was getting a little smarter, now speaking more or less complete sentences, but they were very understandable. I couldn't help but feel an immense sense of pride for my Dragon Daughter.

And in that way, the 4 months were coming to an end, tomorrow was the day we could finally go to Sapin, but before that King Alduin requested that we attend a party the night before our departure. Royals, nobles, and even elven journalists were set to attend – it was an evening of glamour and luxury, and guests were advised to dress accordingly.

The royal family, nobles from the Kingdom of Elenoir, and even some elven journalists were all here for this party. It was an evening of glamour and luxury.

In my room, I stood before the full-length mirror, looking at myself with great care. My hair was styled and pulled back neatly, with a matching ribbon holding it in place. I wore a finely-tailored black suit jacket over a pristine white button-down shirt, which was tucked neatly into black trousers that had a matching cummerbund. My black bow tie perfectly complemented the overall appearance. After completing my preparations, I left my room and headed to the party.

As I entered the grand hall, my dragon daughter Sylvie perched gracefully on top of my head, The grand hall, with its high ceilings adorned with intricate chandeliers, exuded an air of elegance and opulence. The flickering candlelight painted dancing shadows on the walls, creating a magical ambiance. The tables were covered in crisp white linens, adorned with delicate centerpieces of freshly cut flowers.

there were already several tables, all filled with nobles dressed in their finest attire, sipping on glasses of wine while making polite conversation. A space in the center of the room was seemingly reserved for dancing.

The music, played by a skilled orchestra hidden behind a golden screen, filled the hall with melodic notes. The enchanting melodies of jazz played on piano and soft string instruments, added a touch of sophistication to the atmosphere. The tunes flowed smoothly, setting the perfect mood for the occasion.

"Ri, here." A voice called out my name, interrupting my thoughts, and I turned to see Gramps waving his hands at me.

he was at a fancy table and more focused than the others. Next to him were Alduin and Merial, who seemed to be waving at me as I watched them. I approached that round table, sitting next to Gramps, with a smile on my face.

"Hey, Ri. Happy for tomorrow, huh?" Grandpa Virion's voice resonated with a mix of pride and affection as he gently patted my shoulder, and I just nodded my head with a small smile. I turned to them with a grin. "Thanks for throwing this party, Gramps. Alduin, Merial It means a lot to me."
