Kapitel 285: Into The World Of 'Elites' [2]

The inside was far from an empty hall—it was a lavish restaurant, a dining area that could only be described as the epitome of luxury. Ornate chandeliers hung from the high, vaulted ceilings, their crystal facets scattering light in every direction. The floor was a polished marble mosaic, depicting scenes of legendary battles and triumphs, each tile worth more than most people would make in a lifetime.

Round tables, draped in rich velvet cloth, were spread throughout the hall. Each table was surrounded by high-backed chairs upholstered in fine leather, and the guests who occupied them were just as refined.

The Elites—men and women adorned in the finest silks and jewels—sat engaged in quiet conversations, most of their voices barely above a whisper. Golden candelabras illuminated their faces, highlighting the sharpness of their features and the haughtiness in their eyes.
