As soon as Hera and her friends stepped inside, curious eyes followed their every move. Whispers spread through the crowd as people speculated about who she was and what role she played in the prestigious event. Unfazed by the attention, Hera remained composed, gracefully making her way backstage where the event organizers were gathered to check in and confirm her attendance.
Most of the contestants had already arrived and were busy reviewing the event sequence—carefully noting when they would be called onstage to present their designs. Compared to the competitions held in Hera's home country, this one was far more elaborate. It wasn't just a local showcase; it was being broadcast live on an international television network and streamed globally. Every detail had to be flawless, every moment timed to perfection.
