Annan was still in front of the mirror wall, tidying up the final part of the ceremony, without leaving.

After Annan advanced to Gold rank and came out from the nightmare of "The Long Night Has Come," and gradually became familiar with his new abilities, his perception power had further improved.
Annan could now do more than just see through everything within his field of perception.
If someone, from a comparatively far distance, called Annan's name, he could sense their existence. This "comparatively far" distance, for the time being, could not cross a grand barrier, but covering most of the United Kingdom was not a problem at all.
As long as he could sense the target, Annan could perform any ritual, ignore the positioning part, and directly bestow the ritual's effects upon them.
