The Storm Begins

 A sharp sound echoed throughout the empty manor the king had set up for the Grand Order's top executives. They were staying in the noble district which was close not so far from the castle.

"What if someone saw you Heldra? What if Eris saw what you did?" Teresa rasped after swinging her hand at Heldra who was now looking away from her leader.

She said nothing. And instead, Gus jumped in and spoke:

"Forgive the young lady on my behalf. I should have stopped her. It won't happen again." He fell on his knees and bowed with his head as low as the floor itself. 

She looked down at him and let out a harsh sigh before she scoffed. "Well at least he got the invitation"

"My lady if I must say…Arthur is very strong." Heldra spoke hesitantly. "His wind magic cracked my water barrier. That's not supposed to be possible, considering how strong my mana core becomes when I add aether to the mix."
