Chapitre 183: Dinner With You

Dante walked up to the head table and sat down next to Laina. Once he was seated, Laina turned to her subjects. She stood up and raised her glass of wine. 

"Let us commence our dinner," she declared as she gently hit on the glass with her knife. 

The doors to the Dining Hall opened as two neat streams of attendants, each carrying a dish on a silver tray, entered the Hall. They carefully set the food down in front of each guest. The first dishes were served in quick succession. 

Everyone ate the same dishes until it came to the main course and tonight's menu had two choices. 

It was between a slice of seasoned grilled codfish on a bed of buttered mashed potatoes or a fire-grilled steak with asparagus. Laina had chosen to go with the codfish for tonight's dinner while Dante chose to have the steak.
