β 2 Days Later β
Two days later, Daniel returned from Long Xing Island to The Stora Kronan Hotel in Sweden. In front of his room, he encountered a group of people forming a long line through the hallway, as if queuing to buy the newest U-Phone.
"What's with this long line?" Daniel asked the hotel attendant overseeing the queue.
"Huh? Oh! Mr. Emberweave, welcome back," the attendant bowed politely to Daniel.
But the moment the people in line heard the name "Emberweave," they quickly turned toward Daniel as if looking at a treasure.
"Oh! Lord Emberweave!" "Lord Emberweave, it's an honor to meet you! My name is..." "Lord Emberweave, please accept my allegiance!" The people in line competed with each other, declaring their allegiance more humbly than the last towards Daniel.
As they approached Daniel, Michaela quickly stepped forward and brandished her flaming sword, immediately revealing her angelic origin.
