Coming Of Age Ceremony

When Vera called "aunt" everyone realized, the Empress of the Glorious Empire was none other than the younger sister of Duke Dressrosa.

Everyone followed, Vera's steps to meet the empress.

Luis also backed out maintaining his eye contact with the Statues.

"Xiao Wei, do you feel it"

"Yes, Boss. Those statues were very spiritual. Maybe, these are the sealed ones"

Luis nodded hearing the evaluation of Xiao Wei.

He knows the knights and mages above 4th stage are truly not dead but sealed to be awakened later on.

In the whole sealed continent there are more than 6,000 sealed warriors.

"Silence for now, we will talk after returning to barony. It's not safe here."

When they reached the castle's main gate, a large gathering of nobles had already formed. Even Duke Dressrosa himself had arrived to welcome his younger sister.

The rhythmic sound of hooves echoed in the air as a grand procession of carriages approached.
