The festive atmosphere was palpable as soon as one stepped into the ballroom of the luxury hotel, which could accommodate around 1,000 guests and was the perfect venue for this year's Halloween event.
The hotel ballroom had been transformed by the Empire Gakuen student council members, with help from the art club, who had decorated and designed the space. Because of this event, Renji had been coming home late for the past two days.
All the event organizers worked diligently, each fulfilling their respective roles to ensure success. They couldn't afford to embarrass the school, especially since Tetsuya Ishikawa was the event's main sponsor. In contrast, the school only contributed time and effort. In a way, Tetsuya was indirectly behind the event.
