Aethelwolf introduced the group to Jade Kristine and she immediately sized them up. 'Other than Janrose and that girl, the other three are Level 3 Espers...' She thought.
"Everyone, this is Miss Jade Kristine, an Administrator of the Alchemy Tower." Everyone stared at Jade in shock when they heard her identity. Her authority was second only to the Supreme Director!
Jade Kristine was delighted when she heard him calling her miss instead of madam. It sounded a lot closer and more intimate.
The group chatted all the way until the banquet ended.
The second prince and some other nobles also joined their conversation and even Julie who was still reading earlier decided to join them.
Soon, a new clique was formed with Aethelwolf as their central figure. It was comprised of the Lassiter Household, Singler Household, Urgel Household, Reynolds Household, and some other noble households.
