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."

Her father stood in front of her while holding an umbrella and keeping her mother safe from the rain.

[I\'m glad they\'re safe.]

Hanna didn\'t need an umbrella since she was using a Shadow Veil on herself so that the rain wouldn\'t touch her.

[It will be hard to fight with a heavy dress, after all.]

"What can we do to help, daughter?" her mother asked worriedly. "You\'re working too hard, sweetie."

"I\'m fine, Mother," Hanna assured her mother with a smile, and then she looked around. "Can you guide the nobles inside the palace?" she asked, and then she turned to her father. "I put a Shadow Veil around the palace, Father. Only you can lift it since we share the same blood, so please guide everyone inside. Especially the Hazelden\'s Royal Family."

King Glenn, Queen Brigitte, Princess Monik, and Prince Claude weren\'t getting soaked by the rain because of the thin barrier around them. However, the members of the Hazelden Royal Family couldn\'t keep their gazes away from Prince Skylus.

[And it\'s understandable, of course.]

"Please let them meet Prince Skylus."

Her father took a quick glance at the Hazelden\'s Royal Family, and then he turned to Hanna again and nodded. "Leave it to us, daughter."

"Are you going to stay here?" her mother asked worriedly. "Can\'t you come with us?"

"I have something else to do first, Mother. But don\'t worry because I\'ll be fine."

Fortunately, her father gently convinced her mother to do her bidding.

So, eventually, her parents approached the Hazelden\'s Royal Family. After a quick explanation, the group finally entered the palace.

[Good.]

"Duchess Quinzel!"

It was Duke Jasper Hawthorne, and he wasn\'t looking at her.

Hanna immediately followed His Grace\'s trail of gaze— then she saw it: the damned God of Eternal Darkness attacking an unmoving \'Nero.\'

[Did the twins switch already?]

HELSTOR noticed it when Princess Neoma, possessing Emperor Nero\'s body, suddenly fainted in the middle of the fight.

He quickly took that opportunity to attack again after getting sent flying earlier.

However, this time, another face blocked his attack by creating a barrier— a barrier made from solid divine power.

Haaah.

"Lord Manu," Helstor said through gritted teeth, annoyed that even the Moon Priest was getting in his way now. "You\'re only supposed to act as the new saint\'s babysitter. Are you sure you want to fight me?"

"No, of course not. How could I win against a sly god like you?" Manu said, scoffing. "However, I can stall time until either His Imperial Majesty wakes up, or…" the Moon Priest\'s gaze went past him, and then he smiled haughtily. "Or help arrives."

Manu didn\'t have to say that.

Helstor already felt the hostile presence behind him.

When he turned around, he wouldn\'t say that he was surprised to see Lady Hanna Quinzel— riding on a Soul Beast, throwing a dark spear at him as soon as their eyes locked.

Tsk.

Helstor raised his hands to block the young duchess\' attack. "Should I teach you how to worship me again, you young Quinzel?"

CALYX knew it was his turn to help Helstor.

Callisto de Luca sent him there to become an ally to the God of Eternal Darkness, hence he was willing to put his life on the line.

It was something he had to prepare for when dealing with a de Moonasterio.

[Whether it\'s Princess Neoma or Emperor Nero, I\'ve already learned not to underestimate either of the two.]

However…

"You\'re not going anywhere, Calyx de Luca."

"I\'m not a \'de Luca,\'— I\'m a de Moonasterio," Calyx said, correcting Duke Jasper Hawthorne who had the audacity to block his way. "Get out of my way, Duke Hawthorne. It will be embarrassing for me to fight a small fry like you."

<"What the fuck is this ugly bastard saying?">

It wasn\'t Duke Jasper Hawthorne.

The one who showered Calyx with insults was the Sea Serpent floating above them.

But, almost immediately, the gigantic beast was covered in a blinding light— causing him to close his eyes forcefully. Of course, he immediately forced his eyes open since it was dangerous to keep them closed in the middle of a fight.

What greeted Calyx was an angry duck in the young duke\'s arms.

[I don\'t have the ability to understand Spirits. But the fact that I can understand him clearly must mean he\'s letting me hear him on purpose.]

<"I\'ve lived long enough to confidently say that you\'re the ugliest de Moonasterio I\'ve seen! You should be ashamed to call yourself as one! This fucking ugly bastard doesn\'t know his place. How dare you call my new master a small fry, huh? Come at me, you little bitch! I\'ll make you cry until you realize that you\'re nothing but a— mmmh!">

The duck finally stopped yelling when Jasper Hawthorne closed its beak gently.

"You\'ve heard him," Jasper Hawthorne said calmly despite being insulted by Calyx earlier. "We\'ll make you cry, Calyx de Luca."

Calyx clenched his hands tight. "And I\'ll make you call me a de Moonasterio after this, you foolish young duke."
