Melina stayed outside, talking with her personal guard, who was concerned about her well-being. The door was not fully closed, so Alvarina could hear what Viona and Yeon Hee reported. Hearing the flag description, she felt like she needed to explain the situation because that force was coming after her and her daughter.
However, she was not expecting everyone inside would take off their helmets. After telling them the incoming force was the rebellion army, her mouth gaped open as she realized her mistake. These people tried to hide their identities from her and her niece, and now she saw their faces.
The purple-haired girl disappeared from her sight and appeared again behind her, and she could not see how the girl did it. The door was closed as Viona pushed Melina forward.
