Now, an awkward, gaping space lay between them and the four people at the front.

No one dared to question it.

But everyone knew what it meant.

With the seating finally settled and tensions still lingering in the air, the grand ball resumed.

But just as people were beginning to regain their composure, the lights dimmed once more.

A hush fell over the hall.

Then—BOOM!

A dazzling explosion of golden lights erupted from the center of the ballroom, sending shimmering sparks cascading through the air.

Gasps of awe rippled through the crowd as the royal performers of Lionara stepped forward, their vibrant costumes glittering like stars under the chandeliers.

It was time for the Grand Welcoming Performance.

A troop of agile acrobats leaped onto the grand stage, flipping and twisting effortlessly through the air before landing in perfect synchronization.

They moved with precision, their movements both graceful and powerful.

The audience, already captivated, barely had time to process this before a parade of exotic creatures was led in, majestic white lions, adorned in golden armor, prowled forward, their powerful forms radiating dominance.

Trained falcons swooped down from the ceiling, weaving through flaming hoops, their wings cutting through the air like blades.

The music swelled.

Drums thundered.

Then, a group of dancers twirled onto the stage, their silk ribbons flowing in hypnotic waves.

The movements were mesmerizing, each step executed with breathtaking skill.

“Magnificent,” one noble gasped, clutching their chest.

“This is beyond anything we’ve ever seen at a royal ball,” another whispered in awe.

Even the indifferent Carl gave a nod of approval.

“At least their entertainment is decent,” he muttered.
