Quite a distance from the center of Osaka, this bayside area had the same high-rise buildings as the bustling city center.
But usually, it was deserted, like a ghost town.
During urban development decades ago, many buildings were built here. But there were problems with attracting businesses. Without tenants, it was abandoned.
And there was only one reason why it hadn't become completely desolate and turned into ruins.
That was because there was a Bayside Dome here, the venue for the annual student knight festival - the Seven Star Sword Art Festival.
Therefore, during this period, the "ghost town" suddenly became full of vitality. Roadside stalls lined the streets, and people from all regions of Japan gathered here.
Drake arrived at a hotel, which was where the Alliance had arranged accommodation for all the competitors.
Drake breathed out a long breath, stepping towards that door.
Raising his hand and knocking on the door, Drake waited for it to open. It was so quiet around him that Drake seemed to be able to hear his own accelerated heartbeat.
"Coming!"
A familiar voice came from inside the door, and then the door opened.
The girl had become even more beautiful. To be precise, her current outfit highlighted her charm even more.
As if she was going to attend a banquet, Stella was wearing a red dress like flames, especially highlighting her voluptuous figure.
In addition, Stella had also changed her hairstyle. Her twin tails were pulled up, revealing her fair neck.
She had also put on a layer of light makeup, making her features even more captivating.
Although she wasn't wearing any jewelry, she was already incomparably elegant and noble.
Stella was usually too cheerful and approachable. Drake had forgotten that she was still a princess of a country. At this time, Stella showed Drake another side of her, but it was equally moving.
After seeing the person outside the door, Stella was stunned for a moment, and then directly pounced over, hanging on Drake.
"Drake, you're back!"
Drake instinctively hugged Stella, feeling the softness of the girl very clearly at this time.
Because of her special ability, Stella's body temperature was actually much higher than that of normal people, and that body temperature was also transmitted to Drake.
Drake, the Fire Dragon Slayer who could bathe in lava, actually had a feeling of being burned.
"Sorry, I kept you waiting! And, I'm back!"
Stella let go of Drake, revealing a heart-stopping smile, saying, "Yes, welcome back!"
Drake also smiled, saying, "Are we just going to talk at the door?"
Stella also reacted, pulling Drake into the room.
The hotel rooms were, of course, all the same, but the most conspicuous thing was the suitcase opened on the floor and the clothes that covered the entire bed.
Stella's face turned red, quickly running over and directly balling up the clothes on the bed, stuffing them into the suitcase, and then kicking the poor suitcase to the side with one foot.
That cute appearance made Drake laugh.
Stella was angered by the laughter, clenching her fist and about to chase after Drake. Drake smiled, grabbing her wrist, and their eyes met, making Stella's face even redder.
After looking at each other for a while, Stella suddenly said, "Drake, have all your things been resolved?"
Drake shook his head, saying, "Things have only come to an end for now, but I will have a considerable amount of free time next. So I can be with you for a long time."
The two sat on the sofa on the side, and Drake told her about what had happened after leaving this world.
Stella listened quietly on the side. She liked this feeling of Drake sharing his experiences with her.
Then Stella also told Drake what had happened after Drake left, including her growth during these days.
Drake then remembered to ask, "By the way, what kind of banquet are you dressed up for?"
Stella then reacted, saying, "I almost forgot. The cocktail party is about to begin! It's a gathering of the contestants of this Seven Star Sword Art Festival."
Saying this, Stella suddenly looked at Drake, saying, "Right, Drake, you should come too!"
Drake said, "I've already withdrawn from the Seven Star Sword Art Festival. Is it okay for me to participate too?"
Stella said dissatisfied, "It's those guys who made you withdraw in the first place. Otherwise, you could have participated too."
Drake had openly and honestly obtained the qualification to participate through the Hagun Academy's selection competition.
But under Tsukikage Bakuya's manipulation, the Alliance hoped that Drake would make way for the Japanese contestants.
So Drake simply withdrew from the competition, giving the competition qualification to Toudo Touka.
Stella had always been indignant about this matter, and was also full of dissatisfaction with the tournament's operations committee.
Drake smiled, saying, "Then let's go take a look together! There are indeed a few interesting people in this Seven Star Sword Art Festival. I really want to meet them."
Stella crossed her arms, making the sin on her chest even more obvious, touching her chin with one hand, saying, "Then you'll need a tuxedo."
Snapping her fingers, Stella picked up the phone on the side, notifying the front desk to send a men's tuxedo over.
The hotel that the Alliance had arranged for the contestants was very high-end. Less than five minutes after Stella made a call, a group of people arrived with all kinds of things.
Drake was handled like a toy by these people, and his measurements were quickly taken. Those people left various styles of tuxedos that fit well and matching plans.
Stella picked up a tailcoat and compared it to Drake's body, shaking her head in dissatisfaction, and then changed to a white suit.
Finally, Stella chose a black suit with red stripes, handing it to Drake along with a white shirt and a dark gray vest.
Although Drake hated buying clothes, he couldn't waste Stella's kindness. And this time, he was attending with Stella, so he had to be a male companion that the girl was proud of.
Drake took the clothes without complaint and walked to the dressing room. As expected of a high-end hotel, even the dressing room was quite spacious.
Drake took off his dragon scale scarf, and just as he took off his coat, the door of the dressing room suddenly opened.
"And this bow tie..." Stella only said half of her words before she was stunned by the scene before her.
Drake was naked from the waist up, and his well-built but not bloated muscles were neatly arranged on it, showing strength and a special aesthetic.
The dressing room suddenly became quiet, and then a sound of swallowing saliva sounded.
Stella suddenly broke in. Drake was stunned for a moment, but hearing that sound, he couldn't help but stand up.
"Is it good-looking?"
Hearing Drake's question, Stella nodded subconsciously, and then her cheeks turned red, directly turning around and running out.
Drake looked at the frosted glass of the dressing room door, which was covered in cracks from the huge force, enough to show how flustered the girl was.
Stella leaned against the door outside the room, patting her red cheeks. How could she have done such an embarrassing thing? It was really embarrassing.
However, after the shy emotions subsided, Stella found that her mind was full of Drake's body. At this time, the girl had to admit... she was really a bit perverted!
