After Xu Tao left, they were welcomed by the hustle and bustle of everyone partying. The sound of chatter, drinking, and nobles mingling, along with light music that filled the atmosphere.
"This must be the table," Xu Tao mused, staring at the only table that was far ahead of everything else.
Of course, the idea that this wasn't the table Alexis was talking about, but the one slightly behind it, didn't even cross his mind. Without a hint of hesitation, he moved through the crowd and sat at the table.
Jehanne and Zetian followed suit, finding their seats on either side of him.
"Hey, who's that?"
"Taking the seat of honour... They must be out of their minds."
"Looks like we're up for a great show in a bit!"
The whispers spread quickly, nobles covering their mouths with fans as they peeked at the strange man who had seated himself so brazenly.
