The Roder card tournament at Lakeside Manor was one of the most important games of this banquet, especially since Shard, the Big City Player 1853 champion, had promised in advance that he would participate.
The Roder card tournament would take place at ten in the evening, so the three of them reading together in the room only lasted until around half-past nine.
Once everything was tidied up, the door that had been closed for over an hour was opened, and Dorothy, with a flushed face, was the first to leave the room with a book tucked under her arm.
She bumped into Tifa head-on, but because she was shyly walking with her head lowered, she didn't notice who was wearing the maid's dress.
Miss Writer brushed past Tifa in the hallway, and the black-haired Miss Maid curiously stopped to watch Dorothy's retreating figure. As she turned around, the just-closed door was opened again, and the spirited Lecia with skin as fair and glossy as milk also stepped out.
