It supposedly had a long history, as Peter the Great and his family, the founders of the empire, traditionally danced such dances at festivals and other occasions. But the meaning of incorporating it into the classes is to bring men and women of the same age into active contact with each other.
After all, a magic academy was a venue for a blind date! Dancing was a game of kings, right?
It was a trap of the state to keep and increase the population of magicians in the kingdom by bringing together men and women with strong magical powers.
But regardless of whether it was a trap of the state or not, it made me happy!
In a glittering hall, all beautifully dressed up and dancing in the most sophisticated way, with a wonderful Big Brother who perfectly fits my taste.
What a culmination of a maiden’s dream! I wasn’t the type to dream of things that would never happen in my previous life, but I was still elated.
How happy I was! Thank God I was reincarnated!
Big Brother seemed to be having a good time, which made me the happiest.
I didn’t know what kind of god was in charge in this polytheistic world, but anyway, thank you, God!
Ekaterina was thinking about it in the back of her mind.
She was dancing to the music so gracefully that it was hard to believe that she could dance like that.
“Excellent, Ekaterina!”
Alexei whispered with a gentle smile.
“It’s all thanks to Big Brother’s extensive training.”
Smiling, Ekaterina replied.
It was not modesty, but a definite fact. Alexei had taken time out of his busy schedule to accompany Ekaterina to practice almost every day since she had entered Yurinova Castle.
It was during these practices that they communicated with each other about what had happened that day and the day before, and it was during the practice session the day after the talk with Alexei that he told her about Laiza.
A musician was also essential to the dance practice. It was possible to dance without music, but the Duke of Yurinova’s House had its own musician who would play for the Duke and his sister at any time.
The music allowed them to talk to each other without fear of being overheard.
…It was tough being the person in power, Ekaterina mused.
Alexei, of course, learned to dance perfectly. Dancing was about a man leading a woman, and with Alexei’s skillful guidance, even a novice dancer like Ekaterina could dance beautifully.
However, it was her tireless efforts, intuition, and natural beauty that made Ekaterina’s dancing so impressive.
When she was a child, her mother Anastasia taught her the basics of dance as an extension of her playtime. It was also significant that her body remembered them. The dance steps that her mother showed her as a model were as beautiful as a butterfly, and the young Ekaterina tried to imitate them as hard as she could. Her mother praised her for being so pretty.
When she told Alexei about this memory, he held Ekaterina in his arms for a few moments in silence.
The grand dance came to an end.
Finally, the siblings bowed to each other. There was no one else in the hall, no one else in this Yurinova territory, to whom they should bow.
The people around them cheered and applauded again.
As the duke and duchess exited the dance floor, several pairs of men and women walked out onto the floor, holding hands, and the musicians began to play a new piece of music.
However, not everyone began to dance, and instead, a large crowd gathered around Alexei and Ekaterina.
Some wanted to greet Duke Yurinova, some wanted to ask Ekaterina to dance, some wanted Alexei to dance, and some wanted to introduce one of the two to their sons or daughters. They were not alone in doing so.
But they did not speak to them directly. They just stared at them with enthusiasm and made silent appeals to be approached.
–Basically, one should not approach a person of a higher status than oneself. One should wait for the other person to speak to them.
