After the applause died down, Fana began to speak. She said, "Next, the females of Nefertari will perform for everyone. Please come to the front of the stage."
All the mermaids slowly gathered together. Youai wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to leave, but was stopped by the female guard at the door.
Nao, who was also stopped, was also a little confused and said, "What? You won't let me out?"
The guard knew Nao and said embarrassedly, "Her Royal Highness has ordered that no one can leave until the banquet is over."
Nao frowned and said, "There's never a rule about not being allowed to leave a party!"
"This..." The two guards looked at each other, not knowing how to respond. Finally, they said embarrassedly, "Nao, please don't embarrass us. We are just following orders."
You Ai held her back and said, "Forget it, in this case, let's just wait a little longer."
Nao wanted to say something else, but stopped when she saw Youai shook her head, and then she pulled her away.
"This is outrageous, it's never happened before." Nao was still muttering, You Ai patted her arm and said, "Okay, we have Mai Fei. If he really can't handle it, he will find outside help."
"Okay, then wait a little longer. It should be almost over. If it doesn't work, I'll go tell Her Highness Fana."
You Ai smiled and said, "Okay, let's talk about it later. It's not like they'll hold us hostage!"
At this moment, You Ai didn't know that she was really detained, but now they could only return to the crowd and look at the stage together.
Yu Ai was a little surprised when he saw this, because the show on the stage was actually a magic show.
The dazzling movements were so dazzling that it was hard to keep up with the eyes. The double-sided patterned cloth in the magician's hand turned into a piece of completely black cloth in the next moment, and cheers rang out from the crowd.
Then an assistant pushed a rectangular box up, and the magician showed everyone from the front and back. He then stood the box upright, opened the lid, and showed everyone from all angles again.
The crowd's emotions had been aroused by the previous magic trick, and they began to whisper.
"What is this for?"
“It’s so much fun!”
“This show is so fun!”
"Look, look, what is she going to do?"
The magician asked his assistant to go into the box. The long box was just big enough to hide her. The magician pushed the box to show it to everyone, and the assistant waved to everyone from inside the box.
In full view of the crowd, the magician closed the box, then exerted force with his hands to make the box spin at a speed so fast that the naked eye could not follow.
Amidst the exclamations, the magician signaled to everyone whether they wanted to stop, and only after hearing everyone say "stop" did he raise his hand to steady the box.
The magician first knocked on the stopped box, then put her ear close to the box to listen to the sound inside. Probably she heard nothing, so she shook her head at everyone. Then she asked, but the box did not respond to her.
She shook her head and spread her hands at everyone with a playful expression, then walked forward and opened the box. The crowd facing the box exclaimed first because the box was empty.
The magician looked into the box with an exaggerated expression of surprise on his face, then showed the empty box to everyone in all directions, and the crowd began to whisper again.
“It’s gone!”
"Where did you go?"
"It's amazing. The box spins so fast. How did it get out?"
“It’s really gone!”
The magician shook his head and suddenly raised his hands above his head and snapped his fingers. Everyone was quiet, and then there was a burst of exclamations from the crowd. The assistant hid in the crowd and returned to the stage under everyone's gaze.
“It’s amazing!”
"Oh! My Queen!"
"She actually came out!"
"She was right next to me, and I didn't even notice."
The magician motioned for everyone to be quiet on the stage, then said, "Is there anyone who wants to come up and challenge me?"
There were some people in the audience who were eager to try, but they were not brave enough to actually go on stage and try.
Seeing that no one responded, the magician said, "How about this, let me choose it?" She took a small black fish from another assistant.
Then he whispered a few words to the little black fish, raised his hand and held the little black fish to his ear, listening to what the little black fish said.
She nodded as she listened, then said to the crowd, "Blake has understood the rules of the game. Whoever it lands on will come up to the stage."
Then the magician turned around, with his back to the crowd, and said to the little black fish in his hand, "Please choose one to participate in the challenge!"
After she finished speaking, she let go of her hand, and the little black fish swam from the stage to the crowd. It seemed to be very picky and didn't see a suitable one. It swam around for a long time and finally stopped above Fana's head.
The magician didn't turn around, but asked, "Have you chosen yet?"
Someone in the crowd responded that they had chosen her, and then she turned around. She looked around and saw the little black fish on Fana's head, and let out a rippling "Oh~"
Then he continued, "Then I can only trouble Her Highness Fana to cooperate."
“It’s my pleasure.”
Fana expressed her willingness to do so. She went on stage and followed the magician's instructions, doing whatever he asked her to do without hesitation.
The magician showed the box again and asked Fana to enter the box, turning it around so that everyone in the audience could see it clearly.
Then she said to Fana, "Please tell me where you would like to appear from, Your Highness Fana?"
Fana said: "Well, I don't know either. Where do you want me to appear from?" As soon as she finished speaking, many answers came out from the crowd.
"Still the same place as before?"
"Or next to the box!"
"Next to the box? Are you kidding?"
Everyone couldn't agree on the answer, so a magician came out.
She said, "Since everyone has their own ideas, let Blake decide."
She held the little black fish up to her ear, listened for a moment, nodded, and said, "Blake said, come in through the door."
She raised her voice a little more and said towards the door, "Then please guards, please pay more attention and don't be scared by the sudden appearance of Her Highness Fana!"
After saying that, the magician gestured to Fana in the box, closed the lid, and also started to spin the box, still at such a fast speed that only an afterimage was left.
"Is it okay?" she asked everyone again.
Everyone shouted that it was okay, so she stopped the box and knocked on it to make sure there was no sound inside.
Everyone couldn't help but hold their breath, and some of them even started to look towards the door.
Seeing that no sound came from inside, the magician nodded affirmatively and slowly opened the box.
When the empty box appeared in everyone's sight, the guard at the door let out a short cry of surprise, and someone in the crowd pointed at the door and shouted, "Look, it's Her Highness Fana!"
"It's really Her Highness Fana. She came in from outside."
“This is truly amazing!”
“It turns out it really can be transformed.”
Amidst the constant sounds of admiration and exclamations, Fana returned to the stage smiling all the way.
