After Theo and the others placed the last dish on the table and cleaned the kitchen, they all had satisfied faces.
They all were happy they were able to finish everything in ti, and after tasting the dishes, they were certain that they would be a success at the party.
Theo nodded and looked at them before saying, "Guys, thank you for helping . I think I'd not be able to finish in ti without you guys." He said gratefully.
"No problem, boss."
"It's our job."
"It's the least we can do, Theo."
They replied with smiles.
Theo shook his head helplessly before saying, "Girls, Aurora and the others are waiting for you in the beauty salon. You can get ready for the party there."
He then turned his head as he added, "Max, Kin, you guys can go to the gym here on the ground floor. There's a whole section where you can relax and get ready for the party."
They all nodded in understanding, even though the house was enormous, they still had a notion of where they should go.
Just like that, the girls picked up their bags before climbing the stairs and the two boys picked up their bags and headed to the gym.
Theo nodded in approval when he saw that before he said out loud, "Sylph, clean up anything that we missed, and do not let the dishes get cold." He asked before he started climbing the stairs as well.
But the difference was that he was heading to the third floor where his bedroom was located.
He wanted to take a shower and relax before the party.
Differently from the others who rested and slept a little during the day, Theo had been awake since early morning. Nevertheless, he hadn't slept much the night before because of the party they threw in the restaurant. This ant that Theo only slept for a couple of hours in the last 24 hours.
And to make matters worse, ever since he woke up in the morning, he had been working non-stop. He cooked breakfast for everyone, cleaned the restaurant, produced the 'bad guy' video clip, recorded the video clip, and cooked dinner for almost 9 hours.
Thankfully, with his enhanced body, he still could hold on.
But it wouldn't be the worst thing if he was able to rest a little before the party. He wouldn't sleep, as he wouldn't wake up for the party if he did that, but laying down on his bed and relaxing his mind would be already enough for him.
That's why as soon as he entered his bedroom, he headed straight to his bathroom to take a shower.
He spent 15 minutes in there taking care of his hygiene and taking a long steamy shower.
"Ahh!" Theo sighed in relief when he exited the bathroom.
He was only wearing a towel around his hips and his silver hair still dropped water into his toned body.
"Sylph, turn on the TV." Theo asked as he walked to his closet.
"Yes, master." Sylph replied before the sound of the TV was heard in the room.
"What to wear..." Theo muttered as he looked at his closet.
In the end, Theo decided to wear blue jeans and a yellow long-sleeved shirt.
He dried off his body before putting up the jeans, shortly after, he exited the closet wearing only the jeans. He wouldn't dress up the shirt before drying off his hair.
His hair was too long, and it would get the shirt wet if he dressed at that mont.
His toned abs were visible as he sat down on his head and looked at the TV.
He had a hair dryer in his hand blowing his hair off as he paid attention to the TV.
"...we are here in Akatsuki Beach, at Catadrid. And Joey, the last estimates from the police said that there are more than 3 million people gathered here for the New Year Celebration. There are 20 ferries filled with fireworks all around the bay, they will illuminate the night sky when the clock hit midnight." The reporter said as he looked at the cara.
Theo was surprised to hear that there were not many people gathered.
'I guess they really value this holiday.'
Theo was not surprised that these were on the beach instead of their hos. That was because, if soone lived in a coastal city, the people preferred to commorate the New Year at the beach than at their hos. After all, what better way to commorate this holiday that worshiped the sea than being at the sea themselves?
They all asked for the mighty sea for a great new year, and the closest they were to it, the better.
Every coastal city in the Sakura Abode Country had crowded beaches filled with citizens looking forward to the new year.
Elffire City was not a coastal city, so the citizens preferred to commorate with their family and friends at ho.
But there was still a commoration that was happening at the river.
A river was seen as the claws of the sea in the legends, so it was costury that people who had no access to the sea would commorate the new year next to a river.
A stage was built next to the Sunshire Stone Bridge at the Tinuviel River passing next to the old part of the city. Local artists would perform and entertain the crowd as they commorated the new year.
At midnight, fireworks would be released from the ferries floating along the Tinuviel River.
The fireworks would be possible to look at from everywhere in the city.
Theo changed the TV channel to a local channel, he could see that the reporter was at the Sunshire Stone Bridge.
"...at the mont, the Michaelis Band is playing on the stage. The last estimates from the police said that there are more than two hundred thousand people gathered here for the celebration..."
Theo was surprised when he heard that number, even though the city had more than 2 million citizens, he expected that only a tiny fraction would venture into the cold weather to commorate by the river.
'I guess I underestimated their obsession with the sea.' Theo thought as he observed the crowd while drying his hair off.
He imagined that because they were far from the sea, there wouldn't be many people by the river. But more than 200 thousand people were braving the cold weather so they could be close to the river at midnight!
This showed how much they valued the sea during this holiday.
Just like that, Theo watched the news as he dried his hair.
When he finished drying his hair, his long silver hair was shiny and silky. He dressed up his yellow long-sleeved shirt and put on a yellow slipper. Then he was ready for the party!
But before he got downstairs, he had so things to check as he relaxed in bed.
He hadn't checked Moonlight's stats that day and he was super curious to check it out!
