Tess closed her eyes and inhaled deeply, and when she reopened her eyes, her gaze was intense and captivating. She declared, "Warriors, let us fight valiantly to vanquish our enemies!"
After Tess completed her performance, Saul nodded and instructed, "Wait for the results over there."
Tess smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Campbell."
After that, she strutted off to await the results with a proud smile.
She was sure she'd get the part because of her fantastic eye-acting skills.
“Effie, come here," Saul called out with authority.
With a confident smile playing on her lips, Effie approached him and greeted, "Mr. Campbell."
"It's still the same script. You can start now," Saul instructed.
"Okay," Effie responded with a nod.
She took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and when she reopened them, they blazed with murderous intent and unwavering determination. Her voice thundered through the room, commanding like a general rallying her troops.
"Soldiers, this is the last battle. For the sake of our Land and our loved ones, we must fight to the death! Until we kill the enemy! Charge!"
Effie's final roar sent a palpable shock through everyone present.
Lilah watched Effie's transformation with a nod of satisfaction, her expression serious.
Saul was so captivated by Effie's electrifying performance that he was rendered speechless, his gaze fixed intently on her. He couldn't help but admire her prowess.
Tess seemed lost in another world, her stern face reflecting the gravity of Effie's words. It took her moments to return to the present.
The fans in the audience were equally stunned, their astonishment written clearly on their faces.
“Mr. Campbell, how was it?" Effie inquired, her tone hopeful as she emerged from her role.
"Good, really good," Saul praised.
He had to admit, Effie had completely drawn him into her vivid portrayal of the battlefield.
Effie's dialogue with Saul snapped the fans out of the immersive scene.
“Thank you, Mr. Campbell," she said graciously.
Then, Saul announced, "The winner is Effie."
The hall fell into an awed silence.
Lilah's face lit up with joy for Effie.
