### Summary
Following a four-year time skip, a 16-year-old Leslie makes a daunting public debut, stepping into a tense social gathering with newfound confidence and "Salvator energy" that inspires pride among observers. Her relationship with Conrad has deepened into a focal point, with many noting his "sly" attempts to prolong their time together and his obvious affection for her. Despite being showered with unconditional love by her adoptive family, Leslie’s trauma lingers, as she still perceives her place within the family as purely contractual. This public appearance is fraught with tension, as readers anticipate sabotage from political enemies like the "vultures" who are already circling. A significant point of criticism is the Salvator family’s decision to let Leslie walk into this dangerous situation seemingly unwarned, a choice that feels inconsistent with their fiercely protective nature. Alongside anxiety for her safety, there is a strong desire to see Leslie finally embrace her dormant shadow magic, with many hoping for a "eureka moment" where she realizes her own immense power.
