The word of Shara's victory against the other 3 candidates spread like wildfire. It wasn't even 10 minutes later that the city knew of the event and the victor.
"Cheers for Princess Shara!"
"Long live Princess Shara!"
The people of the city began chanting her name, the town square growing rowdy with cheers and jovial shouts.
It had become clear now that Shara was going to become the next Empress of the empire.
Ning and the rest moved immediately, acting on behalf of Shara. They gathered the remainder of the individuals in the palace, taking them under arrest. They promised no harm would come to them, so long as the soldiers left the empire without harming anyone.
The order was given, and soon every single soldier who had come here had to go back.
The soldiers were tired. Having to walk all this way for so many days, to fight throughout the night when they should've been resting, only to have to return the very next day.
