Mademoiselle Goldilocks indeed began to speak, but she did not utter any words. Instead, she commenced a segment of singing.
The content of the song was surprisingly not absurd. It contained neither dark fairytales nor deeply terrifying implications, but simply chanted about a swan on a lake bathed in Moonlight.
Although the lyrics had nothing particularly noteworthy, Mademoiselle Goldilocks’ voice was overly eerie. Her high notes were sharp and chilling, while her low tones were bizarre and grotesque, rendering an ordinary song with the feel of a ghostly theater.
In Angel’s assessment, this song could be considered a form of alternative art.
Moreover, Angel could perceive some emotions in Mademoiselle Goldilocks’ chanting.
Unexpectedly, it matched well with the description of her personality as provided by Mad.
Mademoiselle Goldilocks was indeed feeling guilty, and she was earnestly trying to express her remorse to Angel through this song, hoping for forgiveness.
However, Angel did not understand why she thought singing would lead to forgiveness. Was it a custom of the Nightmare Plane, or did Shava enjoy listening to songs?
Since Mademoiselle Goldilocks was genuinely expressing guilt, the previous statement by Mad, that she was a shy person, might also hold some truth. If this were true, then back when Angel first arrived at the Doreen Flower Garden and turned to look at Mademoiselle Goldilocks, her screaming and running away could also make sense.
But what exactly was Mademoiselle Goldilocks’ personality? Was she truly shy? If this had happened before entering the castle, Angel might have given it much importance. But now, with the pressure of the Banquet, these details seemed less significant.
The only thing on Angel’s mind was, after Mademoiselle Goldilocks finished singing, he still intended to maintain his firm stance on canceling the banquet.
However, just as Mademoiselle Goldilocks’ chanting was reaching its climax, her voice abruptly ceased.
The pause was extremely sudden; Angel had not even reacted before the sound seemed to be swallowed by darkness.
Angel lifted his head and looked up, noticing that Mademoiselle Goldilocks was still in the dark, making it impossible to see her clearly. Floating in mid-air, Mad stared straight ahead at the corridor covered with velvet carpet.
At the end of the corridor was the entrance to the Silver Night Castle.
Although Mad didn’t utter a word, its gaze and the fact that Mademoiselle Goldilocks stopped singing had already explained everything.
——Someone was about to arrive at the castle.
Although Angel didn’t know who the visitor was, the fact that both Mad and Mademoiselle Goldilocks acted unusually meant that it certainly wasn’t a native creature of the Doreen Flower Garden but likely a guest for the evening banquet.
Angel sighed, knowing that even if he was extremely reluctant to face an unknown creature from the Nightmare Plane, the visitor had already arrived at the doorstep. Refusing to meet now would actually be a bigger conflict than canceling the banquet.
Wanting to keep a low profile as Shava, Angel didn’t want to create such a conflict. Moreover, he couldn’t be sure of the visitor’s intentions; if they were hostile and took offense at being refused, he would have to consider how to smooth over the consequences.
Thus, no matter what he chose, it seemed he was destined to meet the new visitor.
Angel glanced at Mademoiselle Goldilocks, who was hidden in the darkness. He wondered if her singing was not really an apology but a way to stall for time?
But thinking back, Mademoiselle Goldilocks hadn’t sung for long, and it had only been a minute or two since he mentioned canceling the banquet.
Perhaps Mademoiselle Goldilocks did intend to stall, but regardless of whether this speculation was correct, when the guest had arrived, talking of canceling the banquet was no longer realistic.
As Angel rapidly processed these thoughts and began to consider ways to handle the situation, the ground suddenly shook.
It was as if a massive entity had landed in the outside world.
Angel speculated whether the visitor had arrived when the ground shook again, and the tremors did not cease, exhibiting a consistent frequency.
In the entire hall, everything started to sway due to this vibration. The teacup people, plate people, and candlestick people, disguised as ornaments, all stretched out their limbs, striving to maintain stability.
“Respected Highness Shava, the most adorable Da Vichyssoise has arrived,” Mad turned his head to look at Angel, his eyes pleading: “Please, Highness Shava, take the main seat. Otherwise, I will be turned into a mint-flavored candy by Da Vichyssoise, and Mademoiselle Goldilocks will become chilled jelly.”
Mad’s words were filled with oddities, and although Angel did not fully understand, he grasped Mad’s intention.
He was being asked to take the main seat, or else Mad and Mademoiselle Goldilocks would be punished.
Angel was actually quite content to see Mad and Mademoiselle Goldilocks punished, but given his involvement in the current unavoidable banquet, and his familiarity only with Mad and Mademoiselle Goldilocks, he thought it better to keep them around. Firstly, as a gesture of goodwill; secondly, even if he had to speak on any topic at the banquet, it could serve as a pretext for further discussion.
With this in mind, Angel gave Mad a meaningful glance, allowing him to interpret it freely, then stood up and moved to the main seat at the long table, seating himself slowly.
As Mad breathed a sigh of relief, the castle doors were pushed open.
Accompanied by the ground’s tremors, a ‘thud-thud’ sound of giant footsteps reached the hall.
“Seems like this visitor is a being of immense size?” Angel made this assessment as his gaze turned towards the carpeted corridor.
He saw the open doors at a glance.
No creature was in sight.
However, the footsteps and tremors did not stop and were getting louder, indicating that the being was approaching the hall.
Angel paused for a moment, his gaze slowly drifting downwards.
Finally, he saw the so-called visitor.
A short, fat man wrapped in a bright red bellyband. This chubby fellow was probably only about 1.2 or 1.3 meters tall, with short limbs and an incredibly large belly, resembling a ball.
“Is this Da Vichyssoise?” The moment Angel saw the chubby man, he silently constructed a multi-dimensional analysis diagram in his mind.
Da Vichyssoise’s face was humanoid, and his features were almost squashed into seams due to his obesity, with his most distinctive traits being two deep, dark nostrils and a large, bright red mouth.
Around his waist was tied a chain, at the end of which was a pitch-black iron ball. Every time Da Vichyssoise moved forward, the iron ball would bounce, hitting the ground with a loud noise and causing vibrations. Clearly, the iron ball was extraordinarily heavy.
After Da Vichyssoise entered the hall, Mademoiselle Goldilocks did not move, but Mad flew in front of him and said very respectfully, “Welcome, dearest Da Vichyssoise, to the Silver Night Castle’s banquet. Please allow me, in my humility, to offer you this lollipop made from Rainbow Mud Worms.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a rainbow-shaped lollipop appeared out of thin air and landed in Da Vichyssoise’s hand.
Without hesitation, Da Vichyssoise stuck out his fat tongue and licked it. His face was all fatty flesh, showing no expression, but the emotions emanating from him suggested he was probably very excited.
“Dear Da Vichyssoise likes this lollipop, so this time I might not eat you.”
