As the days passed, Juna continued to train and hone her skills with the guidance of Loka and Nira. She learned new techniques and strategies, and became even more confident in her abilities. But despite her progress, Juna couldn't shake the feeling that something big was coming. She had a sense of unease that she couldn't quite explain.
One day, as Juna was practicing her swordsmanship in the forest, she heard a loud noise coming from the direction of Edondel's capital city. She quickly sheathed her sword and ran towards the noise, her heart pounding with anticipation.
As she approached the city, she saw that there was a large group of people gathered around the entrance to the palace. Juna pushed her way through the crowd and made her way to the front.
There, she saw that the palace gates had been smashed open, and a group of strange creatures were making their way inside. They were like nothing Juna had ever seen before - they had large, scaly bodies and sharp, gnashing teeth. They were attacking anyone who got in their way, causing chaos and destruction.
Juna drew her sword and prepared to fight, but as she did, she heard a familiar voice behind her.
"Juna! What are you doing here?" It was Ryo, the legendary hero.
"I heard the noise and came to investigate," Juna replied, her eyes fixed on the approaching creatures.
"Good timing," Ryo said. "We could use your help."
Together, Juna and Ryo charged into battle, their swords flashing in the sunlight. They fought side by side, cutting down the creatures one by one.
As the battle raged on, Juna couldn't help but wonder: who were these creatures, and where had they come from? And more importantly, were there more of them out there, waiting to attack?
But for now, she pushed those thoughts aside and focused on the fight at hand. With Ryo by her side, she knew that they could handle whatever came their way.
