In the guild house, 

Lucious was sitting in the meeting room again. 

The number of paperwork kept piling up day by day.

[These reports...just how many more?]

He stopped for a moment.

[Town Aster, Town Bet, Town Char, and now Town Del] 

He closed his eyes and sighed. 

[Focus] 

Suddenly, a knock could be heard.

"Come in"

His right hand man came in.

"Lucious, another report came, you probably want to hear this"

Lucious sighed.

"What is it now, Forma?"

[Please...be good news] 

"The Count family was seen in Town Eplon" 

His eyes widened.

"Continue, Forma" 

He took a breath and exhaled. 

"Several of the injured victims and guild members confirmed that the Count family were at the scene for the several town attacks"

Lucious closed his eyes. 

[I...didn't want to believe it] 

"What else?"

"Some of the victims said they were attacked by them, and the slash marks and mana remnants showed at least Barry and Sarah were there, however..."

He stopped for a moment.

"Hmm?"

Silence filled the room.

"Some also said they were defending them from demons"

[...What?]

"I...see, anything else?"

"Some of our injured members stated that...the next attack will probably be in Phi"

"Where did they get this information exactly"

Silence filled the room yet again

"They said...Barry told them" 

[So, that's how it is]
