A Banished Failure Survives in the Borderland and Becomes an S-Rank Exorcist

After that, the triumph on Main Street ended, and we came next to the big auditorium in the city. So the Marshal's speech and once again I said just one word. Well, let's skip it this time. Even so, there was no doubt that everyone boiled at me. [M]

When the city was revitalized, the next event was at the royal castle.

The party is about to begin.

……

I change my outfit from a uniform to a tuxedo. I'm no good at these clothes, but I can't say so. [M] At this party, Princess Lianne and I are supposed to perform a dance in public for the first time.

By the way, this party is coming not only against the magicians, but also against the upper ranks of the army and the royal family. We can't expose ourselves to something unusual.

As a matter of fact, I was practicing dance. [M] Of course, it is a baked blade because it is a short period of time, but it is better than not practicing.

It was Princess Lianne who asked her to practice.

She was busy working as a soldier, working for the royal family, and so on, but she spent a little time practicing with me.

I really can't thank her if I can't.

"... okay"

Confirm your appearance. The costume is perfect. Besides, what a hair makeup for this dance. I went to the powder room in the royal castle, where there was a woman.

"Oh? Maybe Yulia?

"Yes, this is Lieutenant-Colonel Julia Curtis. Thank you for today!

"Oh, thank you for being polite. I...."

And soon after introducing myself to each other, I had my makeup done. [M] The process is sadly familiar with women's clothing, but this time it was not for women but for men's makeup.

Instead of raising cheeks, eyelines and eyelashes with a bubbler, apply foundation to increase skin brightness.

She also applied a light coloured lip cream on her lips. It seems that if you pull the female gloss, it will stand out on the contrary. It seemed that I was only going to use the materials naturally. [M]

That's how I get my hair set at the end. Let your hair get wet with a spray of mist and dry it from there to form a shape. From there, gently apply oil for hair. This time my hairstyle has boldly raised my forehead.

It seems to be called an upbang.

I always had my forehair down, so it was so fresh.

"Great! Perfect! Yulia, the material is so good that it looks really good ~"

"Thank you."

With my head down, I'll stay behind. [M]

That's how I got in front of the party. [M] The meal seems to have already begun, and there were already a lot of people eating while chatting.

The chandelier on the ceiling shines brightly through the room and is laid with a bright red carpet. The table, the dishes and everything else was luxurious enough to be seen at a glance by an amateur of mine.

Oh, it's Julia.

"Mr. Roy, and Mr. Johann. Good job today."

"Hahaha, what are you saying? From now on, right?"

"That's right. Julia's not going to dance anymore, is she? I'm counting on you."

"... that's right."

"What is it? Are you nervous?

"Well, that makes me nervous!

"Oh, yeah. Julia hasn't gotten used to this party yet. Hey, Mr. Roy. Isn't it nice to be young here?"

I see. It's a bucket of strength, but this kind of thing is old enough. "

Seems like a terrible thing to say. Well, I don't care if it's as light as this because I already like fruit liquor.

I can't take a drunk word for it in the meantime.

As we chat, the indoor air suddenly changes.

The scratch spreads like a ripple floating on the surface of the water, and I look in the direction everyone is looking at.

Then there was Princess Lianne.

Walk gently with a smile around you.

The hair is put up and wrapped around the back, and even though the makeup is thicker than usual, I didn't know whether to describe it as thicker.

It was just purely beautiful.

The beauty of the world. Beauty as if it had been purposefully designed.

The dress was also bright red with a bold back opening. The heel is also quite tall and completely different from her usual.

"Julia? How's it going?

"Ah... eh!? Um....!

I was totally stunned. Until Princess Lianne comes near me.

"What about me today?

"Well...."

Well?

"It suits you very well!

"Fufu, is that so? That tone. It's not as usual, is it?

"Because it's beautiful, so I'm nervous...."

"Is it that beautiful?

"Ha, yes!

"Fufufu, that was worth the effort."

And when the two of us were laughing, the light fell down and only the light was in the middle.

"Well, gentlemen. Let's celebrate today's party. First of all, Julia Curtis, who is in zero position in the Premium vs. Magus series. And let's open the door to this party from the dance by Princess Lianne III. Now, please, both of you."

The host was Mr. Derrick. When his voice echoed indoors, I took her hand.

Let's go, Lianne.

Escort, please, Julia.

With a small voice, whispering to the extent that we can only hear each other, we head to its center.

Then the music begins to flow when she takes her hands and enters the dancing position.

My body remembers because I've practiced many times already.

We began to dance. Put your body on the music as it flows left and right as you step on each other.

It may be unpleasant. But I worked hard. [M] While staring firmly at Princess Lianne's eyes in front of her, she danced with each other's breathing together.

"Yulia-san, you're better than usual. Is it a production resistant type?

"Well, maybe so... it looks like you're dancing somehow, so I'm glad you're alive."

"Fufufu, well, I thought you could do it."

Continue to dance between such conversations, and the music ends temporarily.

We respectfully thank the audience when we let go of that hand.

In a moment, I was wrapped in applause that was overflowing.

Then the others start dancing. Everyone pairs up and dances to the music.

"Yu, Yulia!

"... senpai, is that you?

"Yes, but?

"Isn't it beautiful? It suits you very well."

"Uyah!? So... do you think so?

I was thinking of leaving Princess Lianne alone, and a small step approached Senpai. I've always been walking with Zukazuka, but today it's strange.

While staring at me with a gaze, I wrapped my hair around my fingertips.

It would be innocent to cloud words here.

"Senpai, will you dance with me?

"... yeah!

Senpai smiles like a round of flowers blooming in the wilderness.

I take that little hand of hers with a smile that is different from usual.

We'll go around.

When I came around, I kept going around. That is why we kept dancing so that the world would turn and spin, so that we could open the night.

I am sure that when this is over we will return to our daily routine.

Antimagician's daily routine. It's a battlefield. Even though we recovered the earth at dusk, it's still only a part of it. We keep going.

But today... let's just forget about this one night.

Enjoy this little, happy time.

That's how we keep going around in this world.
