A sacred aura carrying boundless majesty burst forth from within the doors, and a scene of azure green came into Xiao and Leon's view.
Seeing this, Leon and Xiao neither hesitated nor showed any apprehension. One after the other, they entered.
Inside the palace.
A woman with azure-blue eyes, breathtaking beauty, a tall figure, and long snowy silver hair sat imposingly upon the central throne, radiating an unimaginably lofty presence.
A High-level Elf who had lived for a thousand years.
The absolute ruler of the Magic Dynasty, its sovereign, hailed as the "Heavenly Emperor":
"Emesia Elu Sallion."
She was a true True Demon King-class powerhouse and a supreme existence possessing an Ultimate Skill.
Standing beneath her at that moment was Elado, a great noble of the Magic Dynasty and Elaine's father.
Without the slightest reservation, Leon strode into the very center of the palace. Although the guards by the entrance were surprised upon seeing him, they did not attempt to stop him.
It was as though they had received some sort of instruction.
Leon, clearly accustomed to this, passed the guards and walked directly toward Emesia.
Likewise, Xiao, who was responsible for guarding Leon's safety this time, followed one step behind Leon the entire way.
Although the Magic Dynasty's palace was both breathtaking and pleasant, Xiao had never cared much for such things.
After all, even the Imperial Capital of the Eastern Empire, the foremost human power, was nothing remarkable in Xiao's eyes.
Neither the Eastern Empire nor the capital of the Magic Dynasty could compare to the Divine Temple on Sky Island, created by the Geo Archon.
Leon charged all the way in, arriving directly at the true inner sanctum of the Magic Dynasty—the main hall where the Heavenly Emperor held meetings with her ministers.
Xiao followed alongside him
