Chapter 315 – You Brought Tea to a Demon Party?
She stepped out wearing a high-collared silk dress that shimmered with silver-threaded scales under the lighting, hugging her waist, loose around her legs. Hair in an intricate knot with jade pins. Thin makeup—just highborn cheekbones and confidence sharp enough to serve as currency.

Lux smiled. Not his usual flirt.

"Lux," she returned with a small bow of her head.
"You're looking as terrifying as ever," he teased.
"Thank you," she said dryly. "It's good to maintain investor fear."
He stepped forward and gently took the box from her arms.
"What's this?" he asked.
"Tea," Mira said. "Eastern brew. Mostly green. Infused with mana."
Lux's eyebrows lifted. "You brought tea to a demon party?"
"You brought mortals to a demon mansion," she replied.
Touché.
