Inside the gzae Empire's Elder Council Hall, everything was dark and solemn. The top of the huge dome was coated with a yellow glow, reflecting the great hall in an abnormal manner. In the center of the great hall was a solemn Mu's stone platform, on which various mysterious symbols and patterns were carved. Arranged at the end were three rows of tall seats, twelve in total, each representing the identity of an elder.
At this moment, there were three Elders seated within the great hall, of which the Second Elder and the Third Elder were bowing their heads in event of a report from the High Priest. The High Priest was a member of the Council of Elders and the High Priest of the gaze Empire, who had the status of the country's chief and the four elders. The High Priest was old and his face was covered in wrinkles, but his eyes were wise and calm.
"High Priest, what is the matter you have come to report?" The Second Elder asked.
The High Priestess stood upright in front of his seat and bowed deeply to the Elder, "Regarding the woman who came from the other world, our people have confirmed that she is in the city and inquired about the location of the Great Elder. However, the Grand Elder is currently not in the city."
The Third Elder frowned in dissatisfaction, "Is this information reliable? This woman is someone we haven't seen before, and her appearance in our empire is just too bizarre."
The High Priestess smiled and bowed, "This woman is indeed mysterious, but she has not shown any threats. Our people have been watching her in the shadows, and she hasn't made any unusual movements. I think she is just a traveler of the Lost Ones."
The Second Elder and the Third Elder looked at each other and seemed to be somewhat hesitant.
At that moment, the High Priestess continued, "I have already reported the situation to the Grand Elder, who is dealing with some important matters and is not in a position to respond to this matter. If there is any emergency, please report to me immediately."
"Understood." The Second Elder and Third Elder nodded together, signaling the High Priest to step back.
The High Priest bowed deeply to their Elders before hastily leaving the Great Hall. He knew that this woman would likely cause the gaze Empire to become alarmed, but he did not think that she would pose a threat to the Empire. However, he did not dare to take it lightly...
The Second Elder frowned and pondered for a while before speaking, "We must handle this matter carefully, we need to know who she is, why she came to our world, and what her purpose is."
"I agree with Second Elder, we need to investigate her identity and coming before we make a decision." The Third Elder said thoughtfully.
"Then what should we do?" The High Priest asked.
"I'll have my men start gathering information about her." The Second Elder said in a deep voice, "At the same time, we need to notify the Arbitration Court and the Emperor about this situation."
"Alright, I'll go inform the Emperor and the Arbitration Tribunal." The Third Elder nodded.
"Alright, then we're settled." After the High Priest finished speaking, he clapped his hands to signal the end of the meeting.
After the Third Elder left the Great Hall of the Council of Elders, he headed towards the Imperial Palace, ready to report this situation to Emperor Mitsuko. Meanwhile, the Second Elder went to his own office and arranged for his men to conduct an investigation.
Shortly afterward, the representatives of the tribunal also got the news, and they began their own investigations. In the entire gaze Empire, whether it was the Elder Council, or the Arbitration Tribunal, they all attached great importance to this woman from the Otherworld.
