Fleur had been waiting for this moment to tell about the leech to all those present in the hall . She wanted hash it out in front of everyone.

"Fleur, how would these people know? This needs to be investigated by us," said Adrianna trying to stop her stopping her from announcing it in public.

​​

"Wait and watch Adrianna," she replied. Then she looked at the judges again. "I would like to call the tailor master. Only he can reveal as to who had fixed the leech on Adrianna's mannequin."

"Fleur, why you trying to delay our results? Adrianna is wearing a great dress. As far as we can see, there isn't anything anyone that would say that there was a leech. A dress is majorly affected if there is a leech on the mannequin," said Lile who was standing in the third row. She looked irritated.

Fleur went to the corner of the hall and picked a bag in which she had stuffed Adrianna's old dress, which was badly damaged. She took it to the judges and showed it to them. The judges were baffled as to who could do this kind of cheeky underhanded trick thing. They promptly summoned the tailor master.

The tailor master had been busy counting the mannequins that had been returned by the participants when he was summoned. he appeared right in front of the judges and he looked very annoyed. "Why have you called me? I have so much work to do and when the work won't finish in time, the organizers are going to point fingers at me."

The judges bowed in respect to the tailor master and called him forward. They explained the problem to him. He called Fleur and Adrianna. "Do you have your suspicions on anyone?"

"No…" replied Adrianna.

"But I have the leech with me!" said Fleur.

Suddenly Lile shouted from behind. "You are wasting our time too. Let the judges first announce as to who is the winner and then you all can take your own sweet time doing whatever you like. Because of you, we all don't have to won't wait for a long time. We have a lot of other things to do as well"

The judges looked at Lile and one of them replied in an annoying annoyed tone, "We will not reveal the results until this matter is sorted. The person who had fixed the leech was trying to cheat her way into the competition. Once we know who that is, we will disqualify her and then announce the winners."

Lile became quiet. She pursed her lips and and her gaze turned downwards, trying to hide the well of emotions in her eyes.

"How will they come to know who had fixed it?" asked Adrianna softly.

"The tailor master has the powers to know everything that goes wrong in the wizard kingdom as far as dresses are concerned. He is the head of all those who want to become tailors and controls all the issues regarding our dresses in this realm. He knows how to do it," replied Fleur in a low voice.

Adrianna was amazed. She looked at the tailor master. He was an old bald man with thick rimmed glasses.He had an inch-tape hanging around his neck. He was wearing a white shirt that was so beautifully stitched that Adrianna was impressed. Beneath the shirt, he was wearing grey pants with golden motifs. Although, it appeared off to her, she liked his appearance. Although the ensemble gave off a disconcerting feeling, she liked the overall look.

The tailor master took the cloth from Fleur in which the leech was tied. He kept it on the floor and stood behind. He took his wand out from the his pant's pants pocket and pointed it towards the cloth. A soft breeze blew and the knots of the cloth opened up on their own. Slowly, the sides of the cloth spread out and the black translucent stone could be seen. It was not emitting any red light now.

"Is it the same stone? There is no light," asked Adrianna.

"Yes."

The tailor master made a circle in the air and blew air. A white light passed through the wand and hit the stone. The black stone jumped in the air and turned green. Suddenly someone shouted from the rows behind. "Lile!"

Lile had turned green in color. Her skin was looking like as though it was painted in the same color as the stone.

As soon as the tailor master had cast the spell, Lile had started sneaking out of the place. However, she hadn't even reached the door when a girl near her shouted. "Lile, you have turned green!"

Lile tried to make a run for it, run out but the doors of the hall closed automatically. She couldn't escape. She looked up in front of her as everyone else stared at her.

The tailor master said, "Come here, Lile and accept your wrongdoing, otherwise the stone here will keep jumping and you would not regain your original skin color."

Adrianna's eyes widened in shock were wide with shock. "Why has Lile turned green?" she asked feeling nervous.

Fleur was surprised. She said, "It seems that she was the one who had fixed a leech onto your mannequin. She had fixed the leech on your mannequin. The leech can recall who had done it and the only way the culprit can be revealed is by imparting same color to its handler."

Lile covered her face with her hands, as she came near the tailor master. "This is ridiculous. You are framing me!" she shrieked at Adrianna.

Adrianna glared at her. "Lile, you have done such a cheeky dastardly thing. Go see yourself in the mirror – that this face of yours is that of a cheat! But even mirrors can't talk. Lucky for you, they can't laugh either."

Feeling insulted in front of so many people, Lile ran to Adrianna to push her down, but Adrianna snapped her fingers and Lile slipped onto the floor. She crashed slumped right on her buttocks with a loud thud and everyone present burst into jeers and laughter.

The tailor master collected the cloth and the leech and looked at Adrianna with a kind smile. He disappeared soon after in a vortex.

The judges announced the result. The Belle of the Ball was Adrianna for wearing the most beautiful dress, while another couple got the best dancers award. Best Dancers Award

Liam was seen comforting a teary Fleur.
