"Understood." With Samantha's invitation card, Hera could only access the fourth-floor balcony. Once the staff left, she sent a Whatmessage to the Grandmaster of Astral Nova. "I'll cto the seventh floor at 8:30 pm." Then she called Bernard.
"Bernard, are you here yet?" At that moment, Bernard was sitting in the grandmaster's office. He held his phone and looked at the Whatconversation with Shadow on his computer screen. "Where are you? I'll cfind you," he said.
"In auction room 404," Hera replied.

"What's with all the secrecy? Who are we meeting?" Bernard asked despite already knowing the answer.
"Someone on the seventh floor." Hera pointed upward.
Bernard feigned surprise.
"The grandmaster? How do you know him?" "We met by chance," Hera answered vaguely.
"He's quite interested in you. You should have a good chat with him. Astral Nova has considerable influence. You can use this opportunity to make friends with him." Bernard was rendered speechless. He wondered if he was meant to hang out with himself.

They left the auction and headed toward Skyscraper. They didn't m counter any staff on their way. most likely because of the ongoing auction. They walked through the corridor and reached Skyscraper. The main door was closed, but lights were on inside. No one was around.
Hera suddenly stopped, clutching her stomach.
Bernard asked, "What's wrong?"
"My stomach hurts. You go on in first. Just tell them that we arranged this meeting on WhatII-be right back after using the restroom." Before Bernard could refuse, she ran off in the other direction. She trusted that he could handle whatever cnext and would explain her identity to him later.
