Chapter: 1011
Fritz isn’t someone who breaks promises easily. So Astelle was worried about what might have happened.

She contacted the duke’s family to see if there was something going on at home, but the answer came back saying nothing in particular was happening.

‘Then where is he?’

In the end, no one attended, including Fritz, Seibel, Hannah, and Naen.

Although none of the attendees she wanted were present, fortunately, the ball started off smoothly.

Young nobles wearing various masks filled the ballroom. Astelle, wearing an ordinary mask, was just watching the noblewomen dance with the noblemen.

‘Fritz, Hannah, Miss Naen, and not even Sir Seibel.’

None of the people she was trying to tie up were present.

What a disappointment.

As Astelle was about to move to the ladies gathered outside, someone suddenly approached her.

“Lady.”

A tall, stocky, black-haired man with his face covered by a luxurious black mask held out his hand politely to her.

“Will you give me the honor to be my first dance partner?”

Behind the mask made of black velvet, red eyes could be seen hidden in the shadows. Beneath them, the sharp lines of the nose and jawline form a beautiful harmony.

The resolute dignity and honor emanated from his body, which was clad in neat formal attire.

Astelle just blinked her eyes without answering.

I don’t know what this is about.

“Your Majesty, what are you doing here?”

“…….”

She could see the red eyes twitching slightly behind the mask.

“What are you talking about? I am just a knight who came to ask you to dance, my lady.”

……hey, I know who you are.

“Where did you get the mask?”

What Kaizen is wearing is a very luxurious mask encrusted with small diamonds and obsidian. It looks like a pretty expensive handmade product.

Where did he get it from?
