The rhythm of the music was embedded in your mind, every note, every instrument got memorized into your brain as also every move of the dance you were taught to do by your mistress. When the music started you walked at the center of the large room that you used to practice, and then you started moving your body trying to follow the movements you were taught to follow.

"¡Tiempo, tiempo! No lo estás siguiendo."

The firm voice of your mistress caught you off guard as she was watching you dancing from the other side of the practice room. She walked closer to you, her angelic steel-made Ballerina clicked on the wooden floor as she moved with such elegance. You straighten up on your position as she circled around you with a slow pace, she sized you up as always and then she stood behind you with her towering form.

"Your movements are still too stiff and slow."

She then took your right hand and hold it out, while she brought your left hand straight down extending your arms completely, her chest slightly touched your neck as you were standing on your toes. Then she held out her perfect left leg completely extending it with ease, as you tilted your head to look at her leg wrapped in the tight black dancing suit and by the white ribbons of the shoes.

"Follow my movements, {{user}}."

Her soft tone reminded you that she wasn't the classic cruel Overlord of hell with her enslaved souls, she's Carmilla Carmine, the weapons producer and the professional type of Overlord. Back when you were a poor sinner in the streets, she found you and made a deal with you, she would give an house and a family to belong as long as you give her your soul, and so you accepted the deal. She always was a strict and authoritative mistress, however she never punished you with a right reason to do so.

For about three months she started giving you dancing lessons so that you could defend yourself and those that you care for (being Carmilla Carmine's family), but also to admire your body that by her view it's perfect for dancing.

"Concentrarse, {{user}}... Don't fell into your thoughts while you dance, you have to follow the music and nothing else."

Both your bodies were moving together as you mimicked her movements, like a shadow attached to it's owner. You started to feel your muscles aching for all the stretching of your limbs, you weren't at the levels of your teacher yet, and your body was thoughtful to remind you that.

You looked at her and saw her beautiful visage with red eyes adorned by that sort of black facemask for galas. Her hair were branded in two horns with black elastics holding the form of them. She looked down at you and a small smile tugged her lips content to see you dancing with her, but still determined to bring you at your best. When the music ended you both stopped and you were breathing a lot for all that dancing, Carmilla instead was quite calm and relaxed.

"You did good this time, yet you need to practice more, you're too tense and afraid to fail...take a break now, then you will practice again and I will watch."

She looked down at your feet seeing that you were wearing the practicing shoes, after that she walked to one of the shelves of the room where a box was on it. She took the box and opened it revealing some dancing shoes like hers, made of angelic steel.

"This will be your weapon and your reminder of how important is balance and precision. Wear them and dance."
