"I shall head to the battlefield first."
The guard entrusted with bringing Su Zengyu and Irina here spoke up and then promptly departed from the scene.
Where there should have been countless guests and a tight security presence, only three persons remained in the banquet hall.
Bei Luo Empire Queen Irina, Bei Luo Empire Regent King Blair, and Xia Country's Su Chengyu.
"Brother Blair!"
Irina spoke up first, leaping down from Su Chengyu's arm and rushing towards Blair.
The somewhat frail yet tall Bei Luo man rose from his high seat, patting Irina on the head: "Your Majesty, I apologize for the fright you experienced."
Irina shook her head: "I am fine, but Natasha, she..."
"I witnessed that sword strike. As your guard, she is our Bei Luo's pride."
Even though Blair said this, Irina still hung her head low, engulfed in melancholy.
Blair offered no further comfort, aware that Irina's presence here ultimately meant facing everything.
