The moment the golden aura gleamed down from above, the atmosphere shifted. Viktor and Celia froze, their eyes widening as they instantly recognized the figure floating effortlessly before them.
It was none other than Galisk, the Union President.
Viktor quickly straightened, his hand snapping to a crisp salute as he yelled, "U-Union President Galisk, sir!"

Alister and his team were completely taken off guard.
Beatrice's mouth hung slightly open as she stared, unable to comprehend the sight before her.
Axel blinked rapidly, his usual smug demeanor faltering. "Wait… what? Is that the Union President?" he blurted.
Blitz simply stared upward, shaking her head. "The Union President... here? Right now? What the hell's going on? How did he even get here? When did he arrive?"
