Hearing the strange noise from the party hall, both Mila and Prince Makar rushed back inside. To their surprise, they saw Muffin dancing on stage with a group of mermaids. The performance brought laughter and joy to everyone in the hall.
After that, Prince Makar’s Tiny Jinn took the stage for an enchanting magic show, followed by Feba’s beautiful singing performance. Finally, Prince Makar himself demonstrated his sword skills, which were admired by Mila and Muffin’s family members.
Following dinner, Mila began to sing a song — one that Ethan also knew well. As she sang, Ethan instinctively joined in. Their duet became the highlight of the entire evening, leaving the guests in awe.
King Alamkheer Raushan of Tortonia was impressed by Ethan’s performance. Curious, he asked,
“Tell me, what would you like in return?”
Before Ethan could answer, Queen Nagushiya whispered to him to ask about the Kevarat Box.
Taking her advice, Ethan said,
“Your Majesty, I’d like to know about the Kevarat Box.”
The moment he said this, King Raushan’s expression darkened. He rose from his throne, drew his sword in anger, and was ready to strike Ethan.
Sensing danger, Ethan instinctively raised the snake-shaped sword given to him by the Moonflowers.
Seeing this unfold, Mila realized Ethan was under a magical influence. She quickly pleaded with Prince Makar,
“He’s under a spell — remove the sword from his hand!”
In the chaos, Muffin transformed Ethan into a tiny version of himself once again. Simultaneously, Prince Makar seized the glowing sword from Ethan and handed it to King Raushan.
Suspicious, King Raushan turned to King Rishab and asked,
“Is this… Poxin?”
King Rishab looked toward Kanushi. She stepped forward, took the sword, and it glowed brightly in her hands.
Muffin, wide-eyed, asked,
“Why is it glowing, Kanushi?”
Kanushi explained,
“Poxin is a rare and pure celestial metal. Only good and true-hearted people can hold it safely. When an angel touches it, the sword glows. That’s how we know it’s real Poxin.”
Curious, Mila asked,
“What happens if someone evil touches it?”
Prince Makar replied,
“It burns their hand.”
Upon hearing this, Muffin proudly told King Raushan,
“That means Ethan is a good man!”
King Raushan nodded slowly and asked Ethan,
“Then why did you ask about our Kevarat Box?”
Ethan replied,
“Because Queen Nagushiya told me to.”
King Raushan immediately handed the sword to Nagushiya — and as soon as she touched it, her hands began to burn.
