Since the Mischievous Lion Guild was already a very well-known Guild in the Emerald City, they don\'t have to line with the other people that want to enter the Emerald City anymore like in the past.

The moment the soldiers on top of the walls of the Emerald City saw the arrival of the carriages with the logo of the Mischievous Lion Guild, they immediately opened the gate wide and let them enter. 

To express their appreciation, Leo gave the soldiers some money for themselves to use, or to be more precise, bribed them. It wasn\'t really much, just 10 gold coins for all of them to share with amongst each other. This was a common practice done almost everywhere, especially for businessmen, members of the Noble Households, and royal families, in which the main intention was to build a good relationship and good impression with other people, particularly soldiers working in the likes of the Emerald City.

Under many people\'s watchful eyes, the carriages of the Mischievous Lion Guild made their way towards the southwest of the Emerald City, which is the exact location of the numerous Craftsman stores in the Emerald City. 

Leo\'s exact intention over there was still yet unknown for the members of the Naughty Elves organization secretly following behind them. But for the people that came along with him, they long already knew that the main reason they are going to the southwest was to order costume suits and dresses to prepare for the ball tomorrow. After all, they obviously can\'t be wearing casual suits and dresses for such a grand event, right? Especially considering that this ball is being held in the Evergreen royal family\'s castle with all of the participants in the top 100 rankings of the Emerald Event and the powerful forces in the Emerald Tree Kingdom in complete attendance. 

But of course, before finally going to the Tailoring stores, Leo wanted to make some detours first, which to be more precise, was mainly intended to confuse the members of the Naughty Elves organization secretly following behind them and waste their time. 

Their first stop was the Alchemist Association. 

Inside the third carriage, Dan and Sebastian were currently talking with each other. 

"How confident are you that Ellen will really accept to come with you to this ball?" Dan can\'t help but ask. 

Shaking his head, Sebastian replied, "It is no longer a question of whether Ellen will accept my invitation or not, but rather whether I have the courage to ask her or not,"

"Oh, it seems like you are really confident that Ellen will agree," Dan quickly understood the reason why. 

"Well..." Sebastian began scratching his cheeks, slightly embarrassed about what he is going to say. In the next second, he continued, "Actually, I have long been inviting Ellen to come with me to the ball ever since I started visiting her in the Alchemist Association. When I first asked her that question, she was thinking of it as a mere joke, saying that the competition to grab one of the top 100 places in the Emerald Event is extremely intense with no sure assurance of getting one of the 100 spots for themselves. But eventually, she started considering my invitation when the name of the Mischievous Lion Guild appeared in the third spot of the Emerald Event,"

"Damn, I can\'t believe that you can actually be that shameless," Dan said before letting out a chuckle. 

Sebastian rolled his eyes at Dan before continuing, "Of course, she was feeling a bit hesitant at the very beginning. After all, we have only known each other for less than a month. Moreover, she already learned the truth that the Mischievous Lion Guild doesn\'t intend on staying in the Emerald Tree Kingdom for long. Any woman you will ask will definitely not want a boyfriend destined to leave them, right?"

"So, how exactly did you successfully persuade her?" Dan curiously asked, also a bit surprised that someone as stupid as Sebastian was actually able to successfully persuade a woman as smart as Ellen. 

"Oh, I actually also don\'t quite know why she eventually accepted it, hehehe," Sebastian expressed that he also doesn\'t know the reason. 

Hearing Sebastian\'s reply, Dan can\'t help facepalming as he muttered, "No wonder... I\'m guessing that it is either because she just wanted to spend as much time with the person she likes while you are still here in the Emerald Tree Kingdom, or she plans to come with you once the Mischievous Lion Guild leave,"

Clicking his tongue together, Sebastian said, "Who cares about whether she will stay here or come with me once we leave the Emerald Tree Kingdom. The only thing that really matters to me right now is, if I don\'t do this, then I will definitely regret it in the future. I don\'t really like that, so while I still have the opportunity, I will chase after her and express how much I love her," 

"You don\'t have to worry," Dan patted Sebastian\'s shoulder. He thought inwardly, "You might have a low IQ, but you definitely have a high EQ. As long as you continue what you are doing right now, then you will be able to eventually sweep her off her feet and make her yours. At that time, there is no doubt anymore that she will come with us,"

"Anyways, we are here now. Go on, quickly invite your girl to come with us so that we can continue to the next stop," Dan opened the carriage door and pushed Sebastian outside. He then encourages him, "The Sebastian I recognized will even dare to jump in the middle of hundreds of soldiers, let alone have the courage to invite a mere woman. Just invite her and leave everything up to Fate. Goodluck!"

"No need to worry, I can handle something as small as this," Sebastian smiled in response before turning to looked at the entrance of the Alchemist Association, "I hope..."

Seeing the wide-open door, Sebastian can\'t help but gulped down a mouthful of saliva as he felt like the door of the Alchemist Association is a place that exists in the Celestial World where nobody even dares to enter. But, he knows perfectly well that the moment he stepped out of the carriage, there is no longer any turning back for him. The only way left is to keep moving forward, one step at a time. 

Sebastian turned to look at the other carriages behind him and soon saw Leo and the others giving their respective encouragement to him. 

"Go on Sebastian, we are all rooting for you!" Leo, who was inside the first carriage along with Cassandra and his other women, exclaimed while raising his fist. 

"What are you waiting for, quickly go to her!" Edward, who was inside the second carriage along with Sele, said as he pointed towards the door of the Alchemist Association. 

"No regret, no surrender!" Iasiah, who was inside the fourth carriage, encourages, and was soon followed after by Nightingale, who was by his side, "If you fail, just remember that we are here to help you move on, hahaha!"

"Your words are really out of place for this kind of situation, Executive Nightingale," Eilajah, who was in the fifth carriage with Steve, said while shaking his head. He turned to look at Sebastian as he gave him a really helpful tip, "Female Elves are interested in a strong man like you, Executive Sebastian. So, there is no need to worry about whether Ellen will accept your invitation or not!"

Hearing Leo and the other\'s encouragement, Sebastian\'s confidence was immediately boosted to the top of the roof as he then braced himself together and soon after started climbing the stairs. Though, his confidence only lasted for a bit because he suddenly started feeling as if the stairs were leading towards the unreachable heaven. 

Speaking about heaven...

An angel still wearing her receptionist attire suddenly walked out of heaven\'s door... or more like she was pushed outside by her fellow angels who are currently letting out soft giggles. She then turned to look at Sebastian who was slowly climbing the stairs to heaven with a sweet smile on her face.

Who else would this angel be aside from Ellen!

"Hi Seb," Ellen greeted with a wave of her white and delicate hand. 

"Hi... I mean, hello Ellen," Sebastian replied while his cheeks were slightly red in embarrassment. 

"What are you doing here?" Ellen still decided to ask although she already knew the reason why. After all, Sebastian has been asking her this question for nearly a month now.

"It is impossible to hide what I\'m here for anymore since just by looking at everyone behind me, someone as smart as you, will undoubtedly be able to guess the meaning," Sebastian said while scratching his head. 

"I definitely will, Mister Obvious," Ellen replied while letting out a sweet chuckle. 

"Shall we?" Sebastian asked as he put his hand forward. 

"We aren\'t yet going to the ball, silly Seb," Ellen said with a giggle. She then put her hand on top of Sebastian\'s hand before suddenly pulling him and saying, "Let\'s go!"

Being unexpectedly pulled by Ellen completely caught Sebastian off-guard, but he was still able to quickly pull himself together. With a smile on his face, he suddenly swept her off her feet and carried her towards the third carriage. 

"You..." Ellen could only stare in surprise at Sebastian. 

"Don\'t keep on moving around, or else I might accidentally drop you to the ground," Sebastian warned before turning his head to give Dan a signal.

Seeing Sebastian\'s look, Dan quickly got out of the carriage and opened the door for the two of them. He then motioned his hand towards the carriage as he courteously said, "Right this way, my lord and my lady,"

"I can\'t believe you even got Dan to act as your wingman," Ellen said, a bit surprised.

"Well, of course. After all, he is my irreplaceable support," Sebastian replied as he nodded at Dan to express his appreciation before finally getting inside the carriage. 

As soon as Sebastian and Ellen got inside the carriage, Dan then immediately slowly closed the door before running towards Iasiah and Nightingale\'s carriage. Obviously, he can\'t get inside the third carriage anymore since that would just make him the third-wheel between Sebastian and Ellen.

Soon after, the five carriages finally began moving towards the next destination.
