The grand prize was wrong.
Upon hearing the grand prize's exclamation, all of them quickly rushed towards the front. When they reached the platform in the front row, only then did they realize their opponent had not crossed the sea and invaded their territory yet. Like them, the woman stopped at the first row of platforms in the white camp.
Both sides stared at each other from across the billowing sea for a long while. Eventually, the woman did not cross the sea. She turned and leaped to the next platform beside her. She kept moving from one platform to the other until she completely vanished from their sight.
They were clueless about why the woman did not initiate her assault. Was it because she was outnumbered? Was it because she was afraid of crossing the sea, or was it simply because she did not have the intention of coming to their side in the first place? Nobody could tell.
