At this moment, the ministers of the Northern Lands were meeting with the current Empress of the Northern Lands, Empress Angelina.
The sound of the sword's cry echoed from behind the wall, followed by a sudden quake of the earth!
The ministers, caught off guard, stumbled to the ground one after another.
What they saw next left them terrified beyond measure—
The wall behind the throne suddenly collapsed, rubble crashing down in a heap.
"Protect Your Majesty!" Sulya darted forward, shielding Empress Angelina, "Your Majesty, are you all right?"
"I'm fine." Empress Angelina's eyes changed instantly upon seeing the empty sword sheath behind the wall, "Don't worry, it's not aimed at me."
The tremor didn't last long, and the ground soon returned to calm.
Yet the ministers were all deeply frightened.
"Your Majesty, this must be a punishment from the heavens, Your Majesty!"
