"Shall we go back to Valeria?" Ferdinand offered his hand.
It was time to go back to the Imperial Palace. A lot of work was surely waiting for them there.
Ferdinand spoke with Rendell to get updates about security matters regarding Arabella but she did not leave the palace so there were no issues.
They then teleported to the Magic Tower and just seconds after they arrived, Raymond teleported with Riley.
It was vivid in their eyes that they were eager to hear from Ferdinand what happened in Umbra for him not to return for more than two months without any form of communication with any of them, especially Arabella.
"Welcome back, Your Majesty," the two bowed.
Before Ferdinand could even reply, the Great Elders appeared as well.
"Your Majesty, you are finally back," the two elders sighed in relief. They had also been waiting for Ferdinand to return. They were ready to listen for an explanation about his absence.
