### Summary
The chapter pivots from the unresolved family tension of the previous installment to the boisterous arrival of new, friendly allies. The introduction of these characters was met with overwhelming praise from readers, who celebrated the positive and realistic representation of dark-skinned people in the manhwa, a rarity they found refreshing. Fans lauded the artist's attention to detail, such as accurate skin tones and lighter palms, viewing it as a respectful and non-stereotypical depiction. The guests, particularly the loud and affectionate Lady Tepentel, inject a dose of chaotic, comedic energy, with Tepentel immediately doting on Leslie and humorously questioning how the formidable Duchess Azela could have such a "cute" daughter. This event also highlights the Salvator family's continuing, almost excessive, devotion. Leslie's brother, Bethraon, is shown still carrying the now 16-year-old Leslie, a detail that has divided readers. While many find the gesture heartwarming, a vocal portion expresses concern that the family is "babying" her, potentially hindering her development. Overall, the chapter’s focus shifts to world-building and forging new alliances, temporarily shelving the internal conflict for a more lighthearted, character-driven interaction.
