Valerius moved to intervene, his "God-like" aura flaring in a protective arc, but Elara placed a steadying hand on his forearm. She knew that if he fought for her, she would forever be seen as his pet, not his Queen. Stepping forward into the center of the hall, she used her "Superb Intelligence" to turn the Arbiters' own laws against them. "Under the Solstice Decree of 1842, a Sovereign is granted the 'Lucky Magic' of a three-day grace period to stabilize their aura," she said, her voice calm and sharp as a scalpel. The Arbiters froze, shocked that a "human" girl knew the ancient protocols of the Lords of Chaos.
This was the "high tension" of a different kind of battle—a war of words and "Intelligence". Silas narrowed his eyes, his "Dark Obsession" with the law meeting a master of it. "You speak of decrees you cannot possibly understand, little ghost," he hissed, moving closer until his face was inches from hers. Elara didn't flinch; she leaned into the crisis, letting the "long suffering" of her past betrayals fuel her current resolve. She wasn't just defending her life; she was building the foundation for her "God-like Retribution". She could feel the "Hidden Exceptional Power" swirling in her gut, a violet storm waiting for the right moment to break the chains Silas was trying to wrap around her soul. The problem was rising higher, the Arbiters' patience wearing thin, as the entire room held its breath for her next move.
