Chapter 26 - Suit

Tristan's face was filled with relief as he quickly exhaled from the stress; he felt like the overwhelming pressure had subsided.

"I'm impressed, Tristan, to activate your aura at such a crucial point, truly spectacular," Arthur said as he and galaxy walked towards him.

"Though it was amazing, you should have done that from the beginning," Galaxy said, like she was educating a kid. Tristan, on the other hand, fell to the ground and looked at the three of them in a tired expression, but he noticed something diffrent he could see a white line surrounding every part of their body.

"You can see it, right?" Linda said as she maintained her casual smile. "That my boy is life force, and from life force you get aura. Lind explained as she pats Tristan's back.

"You see, Miss Linda here is one of the strongest aura users in the world, well, except Blanc Noir that is," Galaxy said as she sat down on a nearby chair.

"Woah thats so cool!" Tristan said in amazement as he looked like a starrey eye kid who just found the coolest toy.

Linda chuckled as she saw Tristan's innocence at full display. She felt warm inside seeing Tristan staring at her with such admiration.

"You know, when I look at you, you kinda remind me of my kid," Linda said like a mother talking to her son.

"Really, thanks… Mrs linda, that means so much coming from you, but what exactly makes me like him?" Tristan asked as he scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.

"Well your brave and innocent, and you're not too bad on the eye if I do say so myself," Linda said as she shot Tristan a smile. Tristan tried his best to hold back his blush from showing.

"So does that mean you'll keep your promise?" Tristan asked as he stood up and stared at the unconscious receptionist in pity.

"Of course you would think of the girl… well, I should expect that from you, don't worry a thing, child, she'll be alright, so let's go to my workshop to get your new suit," Linda said as she stared at Tristan as if she was staring at an angel.

Even though he had never met the receptionist and her still being rude towards them from earlier, Tristan had still treated her with care and respect.

"Suit ?" Tristan wondered to himself what Linda could be talking about.

"Well, you see, you and I are going to a gala, and you'll be coming as my guest, so I had her make the preparations earlier today," Galaxy said in a dry tone as she closed her eyes and sat down on a nearby seat, crossing her legs.

"Alright, but why me?"

"Quit wasting time and just go try it on already," Galaxy said, as she avoided the question, not wanting to answer Tristan. She had a slightly annoyed expression as she grew tired of the unexpected delays.

Linda took Tristan to her workshop and gave him the suit, and then told him to change into an outfit close to a nearby dresse, on the other hand galaxy had already changed into a lovely red dress that brought out her lovely pink hair, and her blue eyes just added more dazzle to the already beautiful Galaxy.

"Where is he? I've been over here for 10 minutes," she said with a pout on her face, maintaining her calm, expressionless demeanor, "Tristan, be quick—"

"And before she could say anything, Tristan came out of the elevator in a black suit made for a prince with a red sash around the elbow and tassel chains around the sash and the collars, the get-up made Tristan's muscular physique look slim yet fit, the touch of red brought out his crimson eyes, which made him more handsome.

Galaxy felt a slight tickle in her tummy as she stared at Tristan for a long time without saying anything. This was the first time she had experienced such feelings towards a person, let alone a guy, and the same could be said for Tristan as he furiously blushed at the elegant beauty who stood before his eyes.

Both were experiencing such feelings for the first Time and didn't know what to say toward's eachother.

"Go on, compliment her." Linda egged Tristan on as she whispered to him with a teasing smile, pushing towards her.

"U'm y-you look Stunning," Tristan said as he tried to maintain his composure in front of Galaxy.

The once serious Student council president who was known for her strict, ice-cold behaviour was now melting at Tristan's compliment as she covered her face with her hands, trying her best not to show her embarrassment.

Cute. Tristan thought to himself as she watched her squirm with a red face.

"To be young again," Arthur said like an old man remembering his youthful love.

"Let's get Going We're gonna be Late !" Galaxy yelled as she quickly tried to change the uncomfortable situation. Arthur and Linda just smiled at the two as the atmosphere remained lovey-dovey for a while till they left the building and got in the car. Linda waved the three goodbye as she watched them drive off to the Night Gala.

As they sat in the back seat, both Tristan and Galaxy felt awkward as they gave little distance between them.

Tristan quickly snapped out of his awkward mood as he looked out the window, resting his hand on the car door.

"I guess you're wondering what kind of gala we're going to," Galaxy said as she looked towards Tristan. "Well its a Gala for royals, Nobles, and Popular kids to mingle and associate with."

"And I was invited to such a gathering?" Tristan asked, clearly confused as to how someone of galaxy standards would invite a commoner such as himself.

"Well, we're actually on a mission given by the school," she replied, clarifying their reasons for going to such an event.

"Woah you go on missions!" Tristan said in shock and amazement as he stared at Galaxy, who sat down next to him in a calm manner.

"Well, a student goes on a mission according to their rank… that's what it means to be an index," Galaxy said as her student council demeanor returned as she said confidently without looking at Tristan, and Tristan, on the other hand, had the feeling of pure admiration toward Galaxy as she confidently stood close to her duties.
