Helena felt her feelings getting more uncomfortable when Meghan's face still looked uneasy. Likewise, Harika, who was between the two, looked alternately between Helena and Meghan.

Harika approached Helena. Instinctively, telling her to come closer. Maybe Helena would faint or something, seeing the tense look on Helena's face.

"Please, tell me quickly! What's the matter?" Helena asked urgently, still feeling sinking in discomfort.

"Alright, Empress Helena. I'm sorry because at this time Irina can't be saved," Meghan replied with a face that showed regret.

"What?!" Helena seemed to hear thunder during the day. She drew closer to Meghan in annoyance.
