"I’m finally here."
After she teleported, her head felt a little painful. When she made certain that her spiritual beast and storage bag did not fall while traversing through the array, she lifted her head and glanced at her surroundings.
A crowd had somehow gathered below the walkway. She sensed different pairs of eyes falling on her figure, both curious and shocked, but Aisha only glanced at them with disinterested eyes.
After scanning around and being sure that she had indeed arrived at the Association, Aisha finally took her first step out of the array.
"W—who are you?"
"Mommy, is the admiral a girl?"
"Shh! What are you talking about?"
"Then, who is she? So pretty."
A young boy held onto his mother’s hand and was looking at Aisha with admiring eyes. Even children at his age would be vulnerable to pretty faces.
Aisha’s steps faltered briefly before she continued. She forgot that she was no longer wearing her scarf. Thus, everyone outside the teleportation array she had just come out of could see her face. But she was used to the looks people gave her. So, it didn’t give her any reason to stop and greet these people who were curious about her identity.
Though she thought it was strange that even the guards on duty were looking her way.
As much as she wanted to hurry and find her older brother, Aisha had much to consider.
A queue had formed before the huge gate that led to the entrance of the Association. One by one, these people showed their teleportation permit to the guards in front of the gate before being let through.
Aisha intended to go to that same queue and wait for her turn, but just as she lined up, a guard with an intimidating aura appeared before her.
"Show me your permit."
Her eyebrows creased. "Don’t I have to line up before showing my permit?"
The man was at least in his mid-thirties and wore a guard’s uniform. But the star badges on his coat told her that he was by no means just an ordinary guard stationed here. He must be someone with a higher position than the rest.
Still, she didn’t like to be treated differently when she was obviously following the rules here.
"That is correct." The officer nodded. "But you just came out of the Admiral’s teleportation array. Unless you have a permit to use it, I will have to bar you from entering the Association’s inner barrier and detain you here."
Murmurs broke from the surrounding people. They glanced at her a few times, lingering on her face and body, before they came to the conclusion that she must have done something illegal to be able to use the Association Admiral’s teleportation array.
"And here I thought I’d finally see His Excellency come out of the array; turns out it was just some woman."
"But how could she use it?"
His Teleportation Array?


Seeing that, the high-ranking guard pursed his lips. He carefully inspected it with his eyes and finally gave a sign.
