It was Sally who laughed and spoke first teasingly, "I wonder, who is this new friend of yours? As far as dance is concerned, I don't know about others but I will certainly dance with you since this is your first time asking me out . "

Diana too laughed and spoke as she heard Sally but took actions immediately, "Vlad, we will talk about those accessories for the next time . Come, John, lets dance or else who knows when you will take back your words . "

Vlad laughed as he saw this scene and made some space, he thought, 'I guess it was good that I waited to take a ministerial post in Sky . '

John too smiled and took her hand and was about to join other couples that were dancing .

John sighed a bit and thought, 'It looks like Vlad and others have not yet spoken to them about our previous conversation . '

Maeen herself smiled a bit and spoke to everyone, "Sorry for my late introduction, I am Maeen Amon and this is my colleague and also my guard Cain from the Lemuria Republic . Currently, we plan to establish a connection with Sky and hence we have requested and made some transactions previously after the Grand Auction . We will soon be establishing an Embassy and plan to make a law-firm and other industries as agreed by the contracts . As for John's previous question, Actually this dress was designed by a friend of mine who I met recently, her name is Emena . Look over there, she is standing over there with Lord Mist and Lord Alison and is wearing Golden clothes . You must be Lord Vlad, I heard that you were quite famous for your feats in the previous era . Lord John, as a friend of mine, you should also dance with me, right?"

John forced a smile and spoke, "Of course how can I reject such a beauty . I will go with Diana first as she asked me out . "

John headed to the ball with Diana who was dragging him away . As they started dancing, Diana spoke in his ear as she giggled, "You are quite assertive today . What happened, is there some change? or is it because you find it hard to deal with that woman . hahaha . "

John too smiled a bit in front of her teasing as he tightened his grip on her waist and spoke into her ear, "Really? I think I have always been assertive, Don't you find it . It was just that, Today, I found you guys being mesmerizingly beautiful and hence I couldn't help but ask you guys out . "

Diana meanwhile had red cheeks as she blushed after his grip and thought, 'Whatever the reason, I guess it is still good as he made his move for the first time after some panic . I should savor this moment . I guess he looks more charming today when he is being assertive . '

After a while, John helplessly and seductively spoke in Diana's ear, "Why don't you let me go? others are waiting for quite a long time . Or else I would need to give you some punishment . "

Diana smiled seductively as she looked at John's helplessness and spoke in his ear as they were dancing, "I don't want to let you go . I would rather monopolize your time till infinity and you think I fear your punishment, what can you do about it? How about a kiss, maybe then I can let you go . "

John sighed and spoke, "Well, I can't kiss you right now or else it will create quite big problems between countries as they might think that I have formed an alliance with your family, how about a date with you guys next week . "

Diana smiled satisfyingly and spoke, "Okay, accepted . No problems . I will be expecting your date . "

Diana smiled as she took John and left the dance hall .

John was quite surprised at the instant acceptance and thought, 'It looks like this was her goal from the start . I guess she is Duke Fredric's daughter for a reason . '

At this time, Vlad and Fredric were quite satisfied .

Fredric thought, 'It's good that my daughter made the first move before Melanie's kin . It was good that we had a talk with John and hence his assertiveness from now on . '

After dancing with her, John proceeded as Eva came forward and took his hand before Sally and moved to the ball .

Eva immediately spoke to John as soon as they were on the dancefloor with a terrifying smile, "It seems we will have to call Maeen frequently as you seem quite afraid of her . Or is there some special occasion?"

She meanwhile squinted her eyes and spoke, "By the way, why didn't you pick me first?"

John sweated bullets as he ran his brain in ultra-fast speed after he heard her interrogation and spoke as he bought her closer to himself and spoke in a calm manner, "It is not as you think, I only wanted to create a rumor that Bluesea Duchy and Sky were allying and also to get away from that awkward moment previously . And hence the choice, there is nothing more to it . "

He came near her ears and spoke in seductive tone to get out this situation, "Maybe we can go on a date next week . "

Hearing of a date, Eva couldn't help but think of anything else but the date and didn't question him more as she danced with him with a blushed expression .

Eva smiled a little bit and thought, 'Well, it is ok, anyway, because of her he has at least made a move subconsciously after such a long time or else I wonder how long he would have remained dense . '

Maeen smiled as she sighed and thought, 'Interesting, it looks like Lord John doesn't want to create unnecessary rumors when it comes to women so he is approaching everyone . I guess my plan won't work unless I try more . Well, I can still tease him in the ball for his cunningness . '

Maeen smiled as she took John's hands as they danced and spoke, "Lord John, you were quite cunning in dodging the previous situation . I guess you are quite experienced in these matters . "

John smiled a bit and spoke a bit defensively, "Miss Maeen, to be very honest, actually, it was my first time being in such an awkward position . It's good that it was only a small banquet today or else I would probably have made a fool of myself in panic . Well, everything is an experience . "

Maeen laughed and teased a bit as she leaned a bit on him and spoke, "You see quite a lot of ministers and nobles are looking at our way and hoping to have contact with you with their heirs . Anyway, are you sure you escaped me completely in this banquet?"

John smiled as he nodded and spoke, "Well, I think I have escaped your teasing for now . "

Maeen smiled as she deliberately fell on him but it seemed like she misstepped her foot and was caught by John .

Maeen smiled and thought, 'Well, you could have escaped previously but there are some situations where you can never escape even if you want to . '

John slapped his forehead in his thoughts as he was forced to catch Maeen in an awkward position which the people may misinterpret . He thought, 'I can win wars on a battlefield, I can also win wars on the political battlefield but this battlefield is full of thorns . Damn it . '

Maeen giggled as she spoke while John was supporting her from falling down, "I guess it's my win this time . Anyway, take this note, you will owe me for this information . " Maeen pressed against his chest as she gave him the note .

Quite a lot of people were surprised today after watching the show and had their own conjectures .

Meanwhile, John sighed as he danced with other women and had similar conversations with Sally, Josephine, Emena and other nobles . Sally and Josephine looked quite happy and were blushing from time to time after the dance as if they gained the biggest prize .

Sally thought a bit angrily but was quite happy, 'That rascal even dared to tease this big sister where it was my turn to tease him to death . This is utterly infuriating . It has always been this big sister who teases others and not the other way around . looking at Josephine, it looks like he has charmed her as well with his sweet words . One needs to be careful to not go into his flow or you will lose . He indeed has a glib and a sweet tongue as even I got teased by him . Next time I meet him, I must teach him a lesson . Argh, why am I getting red because of the previous encounter . '
