After the Holy Master's orders were issued, Melina thought about sneaking over to protect Hilia.
But she encountered significant resistance in doing so.
Not only was her movement constantly watched by the Elf Race, but even within the Holy Court, the Law Enforcement Knight Order contained many who opposed Melina's actions.
Because the border situation required a Tier Six Mage to be stationed, and as the chief of the Law Enforcement Knight Order, Melina was the most suitable candidate.
Additionally, she had already appeared at the border, so if she disappeared, it would surely provoke various reactions from the Elf Race.
So she spent some time making preparations at the border, before pretending to return to the Holy Court for a period, yet there was still resistance from within.
Only after the news of Hilia's first assassination attempt came through the exchange between Hilia and Benovia did she obtain the Holy Master's consent to quietly enter the Elf Race's territory.
