Jon stopped playing, and on stage, Flafiel naturally ceased singing as well. She cast a puzzled look toward the petite little girl.
Upon seeing the girl's appearance clearly, Flafiel seemed to realize something, and she suddenly froze.
On the other side, Jon, noticing the girl didn't respond, turned his gaze to Adar: "When did she come in?"
Adar shook his head: "I don't know. I've been listening to the teachers play and didn't notice what was happening around me. I thought Shanni was still sitting next to me, but I didn't expect..."
As Adar spoke, he sneaked a peek at the little girl who seemed to still be immersed in the song, then quietly took a step back.
Jon then looked at Shanni, whose brows were furrowed with confusion: "I don't know either. Adar was nagging next to me, so I got annoyed and went to the side. I didn't notice anyone was there."
As Shanni spoke, she pondered.
