As all the guests enjoyed the gourmet and the relaxing slow music, the main entry opened while the music changed into a more majestic and elegant music. A group of staff escorted the organizer group into the hall through an elegant red carpet followed by the leader of the organizer and K, who wore a military full dress uniform with a black plain eye mask, and if anyone had forgotten about his identity, he is actually the temporary ruler of the country. As soon as the organizers reached their respective seats, they stood at the side of their seats waiting for K and the leader of the organizer sat onto their seats on a half-meter tall platform. In front of the platform, there are four rows of long tables, two on the right side, and two on the left side, with eight elegant styled chairs on each row of the table that are facing the opposite row. After K and the organizers are seated, a more powerful and magnificent music is played. Sheriff's team entered the hall with the lead of a man that wore a bronze mask, followed by Blair's and K's team that is led by a lady with a silver mask. Then, two ladies in golden masks walked in and stood at the both sides of the door in a bowing position.
Sky's team members walked in one by one with the escorts of a whole group of gold-masked staff as the ladies announced their arrival one by one. Due to the 'special treatment', the attire of all the members is so outstanding and eye-catching that they once again caused a stir of commotion and excitement of the crowd in the hall. First of all, it's Ai and Yuki who dressed up as white and black swans that loosely based on the famous ballet performances, both of them are wearing refined eye masks that were made from high-quality soft feathers. Then, it's Seito, Itsuki, and Junior who costume up as three musketeers, the three of them are wearing the same outfits and masks.
Then, it's a trio combination again, but this time, it's much more astonishing than the others.
On the left side, it's our beloved Maria who wore a pale orange dress suit with a long red waist cape that hang on his waist and dragged on the floor like the long tail of a phoenix. The rose gold phoenix half-mask emphasizes his elegance even more. While at the right side, it's Sky who wore a full set of noble and luxurious medieval military suit, the golden prop sword on his waist added a touch of majestic vibe to his look. For the mask, he wore the gold dragon mask he chose with Chris earlier. As for Chris, it is obvious that he is at the center, 'escorted' by Sky and Maria, and with no doubt, his outfit is the most astonishing.
Chris's outfit consisted of three visible layers. The first layer is a plain black stand-up collar shirt with plain black long pants, the shirt is decorated with a champagne gold-colored lace cravat. The second layer is a blonde-colored vest with buttons that are made from precious stones. The outermost layer is a white long overcoat that gives a really majestic look, with elegant golden thread embroidery at the edge and sleeves of it. On both of his shoulders, there are shoulder pieces that made of pure gold and gold string. With the platinum tiger mask that is adorned with some black precious stone, the majestic feeling increased drastically.
K looks astonished, Blair looks surprised, while the organizer looks scared.
"Hmm... I have seen these outfit combinations before, are they dressing up as the Trinity of that Almighty Kingdom?" said Gerrard. "It definitely looks like the attire the Trinity wore that day during that important ceremony, these guys are so bold sometimes. But seriously, Chris-chan looks so amazing dressing up like the King of the Kingdom. That majestic look fits him so well." said Blair. Gerrard nodded. Hearing this conversation from Blair and Gerrard, a subtle smile can be seen from Yiren's face...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sky and his team members reached their row of table that located near the right side of the platform and seated down. Sheriff's team is at the same side with them while Blair's and K's team are at the opposite side.
After all the important guests are settled down, the music changed back to the relaxing music as some ladies proceeds to serve food and drinks to all the important guests. Then, a group of dancers entered the hall and started doing some rather mediocre dance.
A while later, the dancers were finally done with their dance and left the hall. K lifted up his glass of drink and greeted all of the contestants, the leader of the organizer followed what K did carefully and doesn't dare to have any extra action, as if K is the real organizer of this tournament.
As soon as K was done with some meaningless and plain greetings to all the guests, he turned to Sky and Chris.
"These people had been preparing for this banquet for the last three days, what do you think about it?" K asked, sounds rather plain and perfunctory.
"Well, I am going to be frank, I am not for a single bit interested in this banquet, I am concerned about the other matter we will be doing right now. The proper matter." said Sky in a formal and serious tone.
Chris did not say anything and seems to be dazed off before he suddenly turned his head and stared straight into the eyes of the leader of the organizers which caused the latter to flinch a bit.
"I see. We are the same then. I guess we shouldn't be wasting any more time, don't you think so?" said K to the leader of the organizer with a stern voice...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At the same time, Sheriff's row.
Sheriff is observing the interaction between Sky, Chris, K, and the organizer. He felt slightly confused.
"Seriously, I wonder why is this after-tournament banquet giving such a vibe of 'diplomatic conference' sort of thing?" He mumbled...

*Something out of the story
Sky: "Dear readers."
Chris: "Hmm?"
Sky: "This chapter is meant to be released for webnovel.com."
Chris: "Oh! This matter. Yes, if you're reading this chapter on another platform than webnovel.com, know that it's an illegal copy diffused without the Writer's authorization."
Sky: "As what Chris said. Right now, this story is free on the authorized platform, so please read it from authorized platforms as mental support for the writer."
Chris: "Mhm... There are two authorized platforms. One is webnovel.com. And another one is that messy and half-dead Weebly site that she uses for draft and backup... But not recommended."
Sky: "Ah... Haha. Yes, as Chris said."
Chris: "But look out, those scums might change this note to their own website link. So, be cautious.
Sky : "By the way, if the cover page is the old cover page that shows two stickmen, stop reading it, it's cursed and might caused the writer to stop writing."
