They questioned why the grandmaster would concede the Eclipse Stone just like that. It was hard to believe Astral Nova would allow such a bold move. If Hera could do it, they surmised they could also do the same. Hera stated, "If you're fine with the outcome, I'll head down to handle the payment." With that, she turned and departed.

She wondered if he was trying to win her over After sthought, she couldn't see what else the grandmaster, whom she was meeting for the first time, could want from her aside from her medical skills.

"How did you do it?" Samantha asked excitedly.
She heard the host's announcement dat Hera had managed to snatch the Eclipse Stone from Bernard "I simply took a chance, Hera replied.
As she recalled Benard's subtle shift in his disposition and his three demands, she concluded, "Maybe the Eclipse Stone isn't that important to him." "Really? Is the grandmaster really that easy to deal with? Did you really not have to sacrifice anything, like your looks?" Samantha asked suspiciously. Hera paused, then responded, "ts that how you see me?
