"You look beautiful today," Ben handed a glass to both Luke and me.

"Thank you," I accepted the drink.

I accidentally chugged the drink instead of taking tiny sips. I desperately needed more sugar into my body to survive through the rest of the night. My face almost melted when drizzles of honey dropped onto my tongue.

Luke's eyes widened when he felt a tiny bit of his mana levels replenished from the beverage. In fact, everyone who had a drink chattered with amazement from the new invention. The operation of today's event was a success!

"In fact, it was Rika who-"

I turned my back from the sudden loud noise of clinkering glass with Luke and Ben. Someone was grabbing all the drinks and pouring into one glass. I frowned as there wouldn't be enough drinks this rate. I immediately discerned this person must not be from a strict family.

When the drinks were all mixed together, mist surrounded the top of the goblet. Tiny clouds formed inside the glass as it swirled around. I had goosebumps on my arms as I tensed from what would happen. Somehow, I didn't have a good feeling about this.

Without hesitation, he drank the beverage in one shot and fog erupted in the ballroom filled with the aroma of flowers. Some guests covered their eyes to defend themselves while others stared with curiosity. Since this was something Sienna and I came up with on the spot, we had no idea what would happen if someone combined all the drinks together.

When the fog cleared, the boy had grown a few inches where he was taller than her by a head when he was the same height of his partner before the drink. I couldn't tell if this was a good thing or not as he gasped with amazement.

"I feel like the limits of my mana has increased," He studied himself.

But who knew if there were side effects from this. Sienna and I only determined it would be safe when the drinks were consumed in small separate amounts. Sienna softly groaned as she asked the guest if he was alright.

He brightly nodded and shamelessly continued to brag about how his mana increased. I apologized to Sienna inside my heart if something bad did happen as I feigned ignorance to what happened. I had my own problems where I couldn't walk without Luke's support.

"Maybe we shouldn't include the drinks anymore," I mumbled out my thoughts.

"Is there anything wrong with the drinks?" Luke's face contorted.

"We didn't test what would happen if someone combined the drinks altogether," I confessed softly enough for only Luke and Ben to hear.

'But the guest appeared fine, right?' I shot them a look.

Ben stiffened from the sudden news, knowing this meant anything could happen to the guest. If something bad did truly happen, the neutral fraction would have to deal with the consequences. This was why Sienna glued onto him since she knew the truth.

Luke stared at the guest holding himself from jumping in the air. He energetically joined in all the conversations on the floor while others had asked how he felt. To answer, he combined the available drinks into one glass again and held it out for another guest to drink.

Irks of annoyance formed near my forehead as he was creating more victims. Sienna desperately tried to lead him towards another drink that didn't have mana brewed into them while asking for the glass. But, she was soon shoved out of the conversation as she helplessly looked in my direction.

"I thought all the guests would follow proper etiquette," I blamed the guest.

Didn't he know the common sense in the first district? He was born here unlike me who was lectured by Luke about it almost every day. Nobody except for him greedily drank the glasses like they were disposable potions.

Plus, all the desserts and drinks on the buffet table were mostly decorations. Luke never let me touch them if he had the chance. Unfortunately, I stared at the partner of the guest drinking the glass with the pestering urges from the guest.

"Most fractions do," Ben gulped.

"Can't we just kick them out?" I came up with a lovely solution.

"If they're not following the rules, then as the hosts we can use that as an excuse," I explained when both were silent.

"If this was a simple party where we had the most power, maybe." Ben feebly sighed.

"But, there are also other extremely powerful fractions here," Ben hinted they were preying on any weaknesses.

The room was covered with the same fog again when the girl drank the glass like she was undergoing a transformation. This time, instead of glowing with power like her partner, her aura strengthened. Her clothes vibrated from reacting to the magical particles that stuck onto the mana crystals.

Wasn't that identical to the creation of a magical artifact in those animes? It was like she was benefiting from wearing the clothes that fuelled her with more power. It did make sense the result would be different since the guest didn't have mana crystals attached to his clothes.

The crowd's chattering and gossiping immediately increased. Sienna stood frozen behind the girl as she studied her intensely for any side effects. Was it a good thing no bad side effects were seen yet?
