[Eldion Castle, Majestic Hall]
Because of Kaido's interference the Bruno's mood became sour as he size up Kaido from head to toe
"Kaido-dono! This is a family matter... I advise of you to stay out of it and learn your place! Even if your our guest your still a commoner not a noble of Nostra household" warned Lucio as he stares dagger at Kaido
As Lucio said these words Bruno also added up
"I don't care who you are but I advise you to stand down!" He threatened Kaido
While the different participants enjoyed their time, the atmosphere from the position of Marquez Lucio became grave
Seeing this the Hero's party awed Kaido as he stood still and dates to stare back at the noble after all they were also commoner's except for Lily and Hibiki who is regarded as the Hero of the human empire
"That kid has balls" praised Alda
"I hope those nobles don't do anything harsh to him" said Luke
"I say it... He is kind of brave" added Mia
As for Lily she became worried for kaido and looks around for help
When princess Ingrid saw this she smiled as she patted her head and said
"It will be fine"
On the dukes side he wore a serious expression as he observed how Kaido handles this situation where his son is involved, whether he lower his head because of status or humiliate him and suffer the consequences
The King Emperor on the other hand seemed to be quite entertained by the act his seeing and as for the hero Hibiki he started to feel a sense of danger from Kaido after all he believes that any other world traveler would have an insane amount of cheat ability in them
For Melfina seeing Kaido's intervention she begun to smirk as she mocked the arrogant nobles and this include Okou, for the reason that the empire approved of the Hero's action of their slavery and exile to the empire in which they've been living for many years now
Suffering from the loss of their homes and suffering as a slave it is natural to bore a little bit of hatred for the empire itself
"Alright! I'll stand down since it's not time yet... And when the time is right I'll show you what I'm capable off and if by then you still want to keep offending me then... I'll gladly take the whole empire on" said Kaido with a look of confidence
Hearing this Marquez Lucio smile twitch a little as he heard Kaido's arrogant claim
"Take the whole empire? Who do you think you are?" Thought Marquez Lucio
As he thought that Bruno spoke
"You dare..."
As he said this the music started to sound up which signaled for different nobles to dance in pair to the center

Hearing this everyone's attention shifted to the people who are enjoying themselves
As this caught their attention princess Ingrid approached Kaido and said
"Excuse me but I would like Kaido-sama if he cares for a dance..." Stated princess Ingrid
Seeing this Kaido smirk as he accepted her offer and said to Marquez Lucio and Bruno before leaving
"Since this is a party let's have fun shall we?"
After that princess Ingrid led Kaido to the center as they started to dance, princess Ingrid puts her right hand above Kaido's shoulder and clasped her left hand to Kaido's right hand and as for Kaido he held his left hand to princess Ingrid waist as they danced
Their danced quickly mesmerized the crowd as if the prince of darkness was dancing with the princess of ice and snow
With princess Ingrid silver eyes, white as snow gown and smooth skin which one would doubt if this is the same princess who knows how to wield a sword... Followed by her gentle appearance it completely captivated the hearts of men which made them blush whenever her gaze landed on them
As for Kaido with his all black outfit followed by his black hair with a tinged of white and red eyes which glows like a dazzling Ruby, this completely made him quite attractive to all noblewomen and princesses in the vicinity and this is followed by his sharp gaze which added to his charm
As they dance under their limelight Kaido smirked as he said
"You did this to ease up the tension"
"Well it will be bloodbath if a fight broke out and knowing you... You would really kill that noble guy" replied princess Ingrid
"You know me well... But I warn you don't go overboard" warned Kaido
"I know! I know! You already claimed that you will silence me if I did... But here's the real question... Can you?" Teased princess Ingrid
"Don't push your luck princess... Cause if you did I'll kill you" stated Kaido
"Fine! Alright! Let just enjoy ourselves"
In reply to that Kaido remained silent as he continued dancing with princess Ingrid
Soon after as if stimulated Hibiki also joined in as he asked Lily for a dance and of course Lily has no chance to refuse so she danced with him
Alda tried to ask Melfina but the latter just returned it with a sharp glare in which he retracted his offer and ask another girl
Some time passed and both princess Ingrid and Kaido were satisfied with their dance and at that time princess Ingrid urged Kaido at something
As if understanding Kaido approached Rebecca and offered for a dance
After some time of shocked Rebecca accepted Kaido's offer and dance with him
This scenery made Bruno feel agitated as he left the place and outs a grin expression on the Marquez face
King Emperor Ergo however seemed to be enjoying this as he said
"We got an off one and not to mention that he's from another world at that" he said while smiling
"I just hope he won't be a threat to empire" said Duke Agra as he stared at Kaido
**************
On the dance floor while dancing Kaido was talking to Rebecca
"So are you fine now?" He asks
Hearing this Rebecca jolted
"Uh yeah!" She replied
"Remember! If you need my assistance don't hesitate..." Said Kaido
"Don't worry! I'll keep that in mind" she replied
With a twirl Kaido said
"You know when we first met you where kinda annoying for sticking your nose to places they don't belong" stated Kaido
"Hehe... Is that so" laughed wryly Rebecca
"But since you chose to follow me then... That makes you under me and puts it my responsibility to oversee your actions... Don't hesitate to ask and I'll finish this up before you know it" offered Kaido
When he said this flashbacks appeared on Rebecca's mind as she nodded
"Thank you!" She said
"Anytime"
As the party goes on night begun to fell deeper and the party soon ended as the King Emperor announces its final remark
As it ended all nobles and royalties returned to their lodgings as they expect the upcoming exhibition match the next day

[Kaido's group, Lodgings]
As they night fell at midnight Kaido was waiting by the balcony when suddenly Melfina appeared from the shadows and hands over a cloak of and a black scarf to Kaido to conceal their presence
"It's time Kaido-sama! Everyone's in place" reported Melfina
As she said that Kaido puts on the Cloak and the scarf as he raised his hood covering his head
"Great! Time to break those two out of their jail" said Kaido
As he said that both Kaido and Melfina dashed through the shadows avoiding everyone's sight and exiting the capitals walls heading for the caravan containing the two prisoners that Kaido took interest in
