Anime: Re:Zero - Jobless Reincarnation

But now Alice seems to have lost her original straightforwardness.

According to the original plan, Alice was to stand in the center of the stage, accept invitations from others, and dance with them.

Sauros said to the crowd in his slightly deep voice: "Then, those who want to curry favor with me, dance with my granddaughter!"

Sauros always spoke directly, which did not surprise Roya. Some of the elders of the nobles said to the younger ones behind them: "Go and try."

At this time, a boy of about twelve or thirteen years old, with a rather elegant appearance, walked up. He was dressed decently. Compared with other young nobles, he had a well-proportioned figure and could be considered a somewhat handsome young man.

The young man bowed slightly to Alice and said to her, "Beautiful lady, can I dance with you?"

Alice's fiery red eyes swept over the other person and she nodded expressionlessly.

Luo Ya was shaking the bright red wine in his glass at this time. Looking at Alice's calm face, he nodded and said with emotion: "She is unexpectedly calm. I thought she would be nervous."

I took a sip of the wine in the glass, and a sweet taste spread from my taste buds. This is a wine with a low alcohol content, and it is surprisingly good as a small drink.

By the way, why don’t I seem to see Rudeus?

Luo Ya looked around and finally found a sneaky figure in the corner.

The other party was talking to a little girl, who was probably about ten years old.

Judging from the other party's attire, he should be just an ordinary minor noble, but his daughter is quite pretty and can be considered an upper-middle-class choice. Roya just glanced at him lightly, feeling the melodious music around him, and rarely paid attention to Rudeus.

"Just let him relax for a while."

Roya thought so and turned his attention to Alice again.

The dance steps are the simplest ones suitable for children. Just dance as you practice.

But at the moment the music started, Alice showed obvious stiff movements.

Luo Ya raised his eyebrows. Is this guy still nervous?

Is his current calm and confident look completely due to being too nervous and resulting in no change in facial expression at all?

If this continues, it will no longer be a question of whether you can dance well or not.

Alice's dancing skills are barely passable at best, and when she gets nervous she subconsciously speeds up her pace.

The ending is naturally self-evident. The two people's steps were not synchronized. Alice stepped on the other person's foot, and the other person did not seem to expect that her dance steps were so bad. He staggered and fell directly to the ground.

For a moment, the living room fell into deathly silence.

Rudeus seemed to have noticed something as well. He looked in the direction of Alice and saw this somewhat embarrassing scene.

The young noble stood up, gave a somewhat forced smile, bowed slightly to Alice, and retreated without saying anything.

But even though he didn't say anything, small noises soon appeared around him, and these noisy noises seemed to be mocking Alice.

Alice looked around in confusion.

Myself, is this considered a mess?

This was her first thought at this moment. Subconsciously, she looked in the direction of Luo Ya. She didn't know how to deal with this situation.

However, Luo Ya, who was originally standing next to him, disappeared at some point.

She got up from the ground, patted her skirt, and resisted the urge to escape. The noisy voices around her were getting louder and louder. She didn't even need to hear what they were saying to know what they meant.

Most of them were like, "Is this the direct descendant of the Greyrat family?" or "What a shame! He can't even dance properly."

Sauros's face darkened. He glanced around and the noisy sounds around him suddenly became silent.

Sauros was about to say something when he saw that Roya had stood beside Alice without him noticing.

Luo Ya whispered in a somewhat helpless tone: "Didn't I tell you, there's no need to be nervous."

With his long golden hair tied up behind his back, an incredibly handsome young man stood in the center of the stage. He stretched out a hand towards Alice and said to her, "Well, beautiful lady, can you dance with me?"

The voice was plain, yet very elegant.

Alice stared blankly at Roya in front of her.

The surrounding lights shone on Luo Ya, and at this time Luo Ya had become the focus of the whole audience.

Alice fell into silence. She looked at the hand that Roya stretched out, the hand she had held not long ago. It was so slender and soft, yet so strong.

He grabbed Roya's hand as if he had found a savior.

"I am glad to."

Alice gently held the hand and a sincere smile appeared on her face.

The smile was very beautiful, like the spring breeze in April. Luo Ya had never seen Alice smile like this before, and he was also dazed by the smile she showed.

The soothing music started again, and Luo Ya began to guide the other person to dance with him.

Dance is an extremely graceful movement, using one's body language to show one's elegance.

Alice's original nervousness gradually dissipated and finally calmed down.

I don't know why, but looking at Luo Ya's face, I was a little flustered yesterday, but looking at it again today, I feel extremely at peace.

Is that so?

It seems that as long as the other person is there, everything can be solved.

A dance that ended quickly.

In these short five minutes, Alice seemed to have gotten to know the boy in front of her all over again.

The nobles around were completely stunned. No one knew who started to applaud first, but soon warm applause broke out in the arena.

Luo Ya raised his eyes and looked down. His own Ou Doudou clapped the loudest and deserved praise.

As the saying goes, "Raise your brother for a thousand days and use him for a moment", so it can be said that my love for him is not in vain.

Sauros's rough voice came, and he said loudly: "Not bad! Very good, I like you much better than that kid Paul."

Luo Ya's mouth twitched. Why did he always like to involve Paul in everything?

Luo Ya bowed slightly and said modestly: "Alice dances better."

Luo Ya pushed Alice out and whispered in her ear, "Have fun."

After saying that, he left gracefully.

As the saying goes, when the work is done, one leaves, hiding one's achievements and fame.

I'm talking about outstanding young people like Luo Ya.

Rudeus was clapping enthusiastically at the moment. When he saw Roya, his hands clapped even more. Roya walked up to him and said unhappily, "That's good enough."

Rudeus didn't care. He said loudly: "Brother Luoya is handsome again."

Roya nodded in satisfaction, gave Rudeus an appreciative look, and patted him on the forehead.

Rudeus chuckled, and Roya said to him, "Go and have fun, but remember not to go too far like Paul did."

Rudeus' eyes lit up, and with his elder brother's permission, he gave Roya a thumbs up.

Roya's mouth twitched, and he no longer paid attention to Rudeus, and began to wander around the surrounding delicacies.

There are many rare dishes today.

For example, there are pies made with sweet and sour fruits of unknown origin, meat dishes prepared with a whole cow, and beautifully decorated cakes.

Luo Ya ignored the nobles who came over, took out his knife, fork and plate, and began to eat skillfully.

Ever since he had merged with dragon blood, his requirement for food had become extremely high. The little food in front of him was not enough to fill his stomach. Normally, he was always half full. Today, it was a rare opportunity to have something to eat, so Luo Ya naturally would not be polite. He picked up the food and started stuffing it into his mouth.

The food in the other world is surprisingly good. The meat is tender and delicious. Just put it in your mouth and take a light bite, and the aroma of the meat will fill your entire mouth.

Drinking the wine in the glass, I felt particularly relaxed.

As Luoya was enjoying his meal, the nobles who came to disturb him just stood by.

After Luoya finished eating the last piece of food in front of him, they hurriedly approached Luoya, wanting to say something.

But he was glared at by Luo Ya's cold gaze.

The red-gold pupils reflected the other person's figure. Luo Ya said calmly: "No one told you that disturbing a noble while he is eating is extremely rude."

After saying this, Luo Ya began to show his aura.

Immediately, the little noble who had originally intended to curry favor with the Greyrat family hurriedly apologized.

He retreated back with his back turned in disappointment.

Seeing Luo Ya being so domineering, some nobles were naturally dissatisfied, but they had no intention of getting entangled, and almost all the nobles who had gathered around him left at once.

There was no buzzing sound nearby. Luo Ya smiled and brought over the steak that was placed not far away.

However, a pair of eyes kept looking at Luo Ya.

Luo Ya frowned and looked in the direction he was looking, but what he saw was Gileno.

At this time, Gileno was serving as a bodyguard. Of course, as a bodyguard, he was not allowed to come in to enjoy the food, so he just stood at the door and looked at the food on the table.

Although her eyes didn't show any expression as if she was saying anything, saliva was dripping from her lips.

Roya fell into silence. He grabbed a leg of an unknown animal with one hand and waved it slightly. Gileno's eyes followed Roya's hand.

Luo Ya sighed and called a cat-eared maid who was looking at him stealthily.

The cat-eared maid was obviously a little flustered after being called. She walked to Luoya with a little shyness, deliberately exposing the snow-white skin of her neck. Unfortunately, Luoya just glanced at her coldly and said to her, "Pack up the food and send it to my room."

Although the guards and servants will seem to be able to enjoy a more luxurious meal than usual afterwards, these dishes will not be available on site.

The maid's originally enthusiastic mood instantly faded a lot. She nodded and began to clean up the food on the table.

By the time Luo Ya had eaten and drunk his fill, a large area of ​​food had been left on the table. Luo Ya burped and sat lazily in his seat.

He looked up at the ceiling and said with emotion, "It's really nice."

Chapter 103 A Gift for Alice

Jilenu was very greedy, or perhaps the word "extremely greedy" was not enough to describe her mood at the moment.

Watching others feasting on their food was more painful than killing her.

Gilenu's life is not easy. It is not difficult to see from her life that her background and childhood experiences have made her what she is now.

In the past, she had lived in extremely harsh conditions for a long time and had tasted everything.

The beastmen's warriors had high food requirements, so Roya was not that surprised by this situation.

After eating, Luo Ya stood up, walked to Gilenu and whispered to him: "Master Gilenu, please go to my room later. I will ask the servants to deliver all the food."

Jilenu nodded calmly. She didn't say anything pretentious. She just wanted to eat. Jilenu patted Luoya's shoulder with an expression that said, "You know me, kid."

Luo Ya smiled, took out a handkerchief from his arms and handed it to Jilenu, saying to him: "Master Jilenu, you should pay attention to your image."

Gileno took the handkerchief handed over by Roya, looked around, and indeed found that some people were looking at him with curious eyes.

Jilenu nodded, took the handkerchief handed over by Luoya, and suddenly leaned close to Luoya's ear and said, "Miss Alice is here to see you."

Luo Ya was slightly surprised, but when he turned around, he saw the cute girl wearing a noble dress with a blush on her face.

Alice looked around with a smug look on her face, grabbed Roya's hand, and moved to the center of the hall while humming and laughing.

Alice said to Luo Ya: "Grandfather is very optimistic about you~"

It was rare that Alice also had a happy smile on her face. But come to think of it, she didn't make a fool of herself at the dance, thanks to Luo Ya.

Thinking of this, Alice smiled sweetly at Luo Ya again and said, "Thank you, Luo Ya."

Luo Ya rolled his eyes in annoyance, poked Alice's cheek, and said to her unhappily: "You should call me Master Luo Ya, or Brother Luo Ya. After all, I am older than you. Besides, it is my duty as a master to protect my apprentice from making a fool of herself."

Roya said so, and Alice nodded, feeling warm in her heart.

If someone lends a helping hand in the most dangerous situation, people will subconsciously have a great liking for that person.

Haven’t you noticed that the plot of a hero saving a beauty always appears in some novels?

Putting aside other things, these routines may not be old-fashioned, but they are indeed very effective. Although the scenes of the hero saving the beauty are a bit old-fashioned, they are really effective.

Every little girl has a dream of a prince charming in her heart, fantasizing that she can be saved by the prince charming and then live a sweet life together.

If there is a prince charming in this world, who could be more suitable than Roya?

Holding the other person's hand and feeling the breath coming from the other person, Alice felt a little dazed.
