BRING IT ON

HANNA smiled while watching the citizens of the Great Moonasterion Empire get entertained by the flying Sea Serpent and Blue Whale above them.

It was a success.

Thanks to the faith that their people had in her, everyone trusted her when she said that the Elemental Guardians were their allies.

Now no one was really looking at the palace where Neoma (still possessing Nero's body) was picking a fight with Calyx (still surrounded by the White Lion Knights even though Commander Ruto had already disappeared).

But, to be sure, she put a very thin Shadow Veil around the palace.

[With that, people can still 'see' the palace. But they won't really be able to see the fight happening inside.]

"You did well, Hanna," her father, the former Duke Rufus Quinzel, said proudly while patting her back. "We're so proud of you."

Hanna smiled and nodded politely. "Thank you, Mother, Father."
