Her breath caught in her throat, and her heart pounded violently.
She kept her eyes fixed on the man before her because she wanted to know whether he was real or just an illusion born from years of sorrow and longing.
When she heard the distant cheers of his subordinates echoing like background noise, she finally knew the man in front of her was real, not an illusion.

Like a dam holding out for years before finally breaking apart, she threw herself into his arms and embraced him tightly.
Her entire body trembled uncontrollably, and tears suddenly welled up in her eyes.
Of course, they were tears of happiness because the man she had always longed to meet was standing before her.
