Rebella stared at James, her eyes dazed.
"I... I'm so confused!" "It's alright," James chuckled. "Just follow my instructions. You'll have to take srisks, but eventually, you'll understand why I've asked you to do these things." Rebella blinked. "Um... What about Truett and the other War Kings?" "Keep this from the War Kings for now," James continued. "As for Truett, he's not the right person for the Grand Steward's position if he can't see through a simple trick like this." Rebella sighed and lowered her gaze.
"I guess I'm the only fool in the group who doesn't have the slightest clue!" "No." Xezal turned her eyes to Rebella. "There's also Wyot and Clayton." Rebella was struck speechless.

The two ladies shuddered slightly before assuming seated positions in mid-air. They swiftly worked on absorbing and optimizing the new powers.
A short while later, intense amounts of Hadufen Light emanated from Xezal's body. She radiated an aura at the SuprEmperor's level as her powers increased.
Meanwhile, Rebella shone with a pink light all over and spun slowly. Her aura had been elevated to a path king's level.
Eventually, the two of them opened their eyes. Both ladies were surprised and delighted by how much their powers had improved.
With a little help from James, they now had powers surpassing even those of the Jademora Empire's experienced grand patriarchs.
"Carry on with your duties after this," James instructed. "You can't reveal my true identity, nor expose the impostor's identity to others. "At your current level of power, even Lord Goyo won't be able to examine your souls." Xezal frowned slightly. "What is your next plan?" James responded, "I'll be doing the sthing as you guys, that is, getting ready and waiting for the right time." "Master!" Rebella said hurriedly, "You've givenprotection this way, but you have many other lady followers, like Xatia and Adair. If the impostor tries to lay his hands on the ladies by using your identity..." "Why do you think I revealed my real identity to you in the first place?" James cut her off.
"Uh..." Rebella paused awkwardly.

"This space exists without a tlimit." James straightened his back. "You two can stay here and use this chance to refine your powers. When you head back outside, it'll still be the smoment you first cin here.".
Then, he pointed at Xezal. "You should teach this innocent lady more things instead of spending your tplotting schemes. After all, she's risked her own life to protect you." After saying that, James teleported and vanished from the spot. Rebella and Xezal quickly got to their feet and glanced around.
"He left just like that?" Rebella muttered gloomily.
Xezal teased her, "He only has eyes for his wife. Besides, do you honestly think the lion and the mice belong together?"
Rebella fell silent. After a brief pause, she shot a glare at Xeal. "Who are you calling mice here?!" X
