Chapter 32 - Chapter 32 Thomas the Wizard of Wrath

Ting… ting… ting

Liora: "Hahhh."

Step

She went into her room.

Liora: "…So, Gerrard…"

Memory

Liora: "Hehehe."

"Hehe… Liora… what is it, hehe… you are laughing again."

Kaboom

Liora: "Dad… Dad…"

"Run away, Liora… run… from that monster…"

Liora: "Ugh… no… do not leave me alone… Dad."

"Run away… you have no chance… against the Big Bad Wolf… you have no chance… run away!"

Liora: "Ugh…"

"Go!"

She ran. She ran toward the forest. While she ran, she heard her father screaming.

Liora: "Huh?"

A few hours later

She returned to the village… but… it was already… over.

Liora: "Ugh… ugh…"

Bodies were torn apart everywhere. Severed limbs… including her father's… He lay dead on the ground, his body split in two. His organs were visible.

Liora: "Ugh… hahhh… aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh!"

She started crying and screaming loudly.

"Oh dear… oh dear…"

She heard it suddenly. She turned around and he was standing there.

Gargamel: "…You poor… girl… what did they do to you… Look at how your parents were murdered…"

He reached out his hand.

Gargamel: "You want revenge, don't you. Come with me. I will give you power. But… say out loud what you want."

Liora: "I… I want… everyone… everyone dead… I want the ability… to kill people… and to avenge my father… especially… the Big Bad Wolf. I want to kill him… with my own hands!"

Gargamel: "Hehehehe."

A book floated in front of her. It said: Grimoire: The Crying Woman.

Gargamel: "Here is your grimoire. Now come with me, and we will take revenge on humanity. Gahahahahahaha."

End of memory

A few hours earlier, before the visit to Thomas Albert

Liora: "Big Bad Wolf… I will find you… and kill you."

She said it while lying on her bed.

Liora: "…Hahh…"

Knock knock

Liora: "Yes."

The door opened. An armored soldier came in.

Franzoa: "Liora… come. It is time for the meeting of the Seven Deadly Sins."

Liora: "Oh… yes… um… can you turn around."

Franzoa: "Oh, of course."

He turned around and waited while she got dressed.

Liora: "You can turn back now."

Franzoa: "Oh, okay… huh…"

She pulled on tight pants.

Liora: "What?"

Franzoa: "Are the pants not a little too tight?"

Liora: "Oh dear… does that turn you on?"

Franzoa: "Hey!"

Liora: "Then let's go. Where do we meet?"

Franzoa: "As always, in the hall."

She put on her armor.

Franzoa: "Alright. See you there."

He left the room.

Liora: "Hahhh…"

She put on her helmet and walked out, toward the hall.

A few minutes later

Franzoa: "Alright. As I see, we are all here. The Seven Deadly Sins. I will call the names. Liora Kapanadze, sin of wrath."

Liora: "Yes."

Franzoa: "Good."

Liora: "Hahh."

Franzoa: "Maya Lemosel, sin of lust."

Maya: "Yes, here."

Franzoa: "Medusa, sin of pride."

Medusa: "Mhm."

Franzoa: "And lastly, the Frankenheim siblings. Hans Frankenheim, sin of envy. Max Frankenheim, sin of gluttony. And the little sister, Cossette, sin of sloth."

Hans Frankenheim: "Hm."

Max: "Yeah…"

Cossette: "Hahh… yes…"

Franzoa: "And of course Ken Akihiko and Juko. Together they form the sin of greed."

Ken: "Hehe."

Juko: "Hehe."

Meanwhile

Kisa: "Nacht… Nacht?"

Diego: "What is it, Kisa?"

Kisa: "Where is Nacht? I cannot find him."

Diego: "Huh?"

Kisa: "I… I do not know… maybe I was mean to him lately…"

Diego: "…"

Mona: "Strange. Charlotte is missing too."

Diego: "Oh… oh."

Kisa: "Oh no…"

Mona: "Do not worry. This time he wants to help her."

Kisa: "Oh… how do you know that?"

Kisa looked at her. Mona's eyes were glowing, as if she wanted to cry.

Mona: "Can you stop being such a cute girl. It is fine. He only wants to help her get revenge on the person who killed her family."

Kisa: "Oh."

Diego: "Huh?"

Meanwhile

In the city of Telsford, a large city surrounded by three statues. One statue was Angelicas, representing respect. Another was Claudi, representing honesty. The third statue represented decency and was called Themins. All three statues belonged to a former queen who saved many lives in wars. The three statues were mages. In some cities they are celebrated as heroes, in others they are feared as a bad omen.

Charlotte: "…Hmm."

Nacht: "So this is the city… I already thought it would be big, but this big…"

Charlotte: "Can you explain to me now why you are doing all of this?"

Nacht: "I just want to help you. Alright. The castle should be over there…"

They started walking.

Charlotte: "I do not understand it. Why does your family hate mine so much. What did we do."

Nacht: "My father was obsessed with being the number one mage. Your family was not the first. My father was a narcissist. If there was one thing my sister was good at, it was killing people."

Charlotte: "…Hmm… you do not like your father?"

Nacht: "…Hmm… I will never forgive him for what he did to my mother. He had multiple women, so we were never a complete family. Same father, not the same mother. I do not know my mother. I only know my father did something that made her disappear forever. She was a famous mage…"

Charlotte: "I understand…"

Charlotte and Nacht kept walking until they came across something… a statue.

Charlotte: "Huh?"

Nacht: "Hmm… what kind of statue is that?"

Charlotte: "It does not look like the ones in the city."

Nacht: "Anyway, we have to keep going."

They walked on, without noticing the statue's head move.

Liora: "…I found you…"

Liora vanished quickly.

Liora: "Hmm… what are they doing here…"

Suddenly, a dark figure appeared behind her, with purple eyes and a huge scythe.

Liora: "Calm down, Pechtina. This is not the order we were given. Also, the Big Bad Wolf does not seem to be with them… from what I can see. Nacht von Zephyr, the tale of corruption, and Charlotte, the tale of curses. I would say we keep watching. Let's see if Thomas Albert manages to kill them."

Pechtina: "I say yes."

Liora: "I say no."

Pechtina: "Hehehe. This will be interesting."

They moved on.

Nacht: "Does your eye hurt?"

Charlotte: "Hmm."

She put her hand over her eye.

Charlotte: "Listen. Just because you help me does not mean I want to talk to you. You almost blinded my left eye."

Nacht: "Hmm…"

Charlotte: "Are you jealous because I have prettier eyes than Kisa?"

Nacht: "Hey…"

Charlotte: "Huh."

He grabbed her chin and pushed her against the wall.

Nacht: "If you bring Kisa into this one more time, I swear I will make sure you cannot see, cannot smell, and cannot hear."

Charlotte: "Ghhh…"

Nacht: "Do you understand?"

Charlotte: "Ghhhh…"

She held his hand.

Charlotte: "I got it…"

He let her go.

Charlotte: "Cough… cough…"

Nacht: "That is better. By the way, unlike some people, I do not mind hitting a woman."

Charlotte: "Screw you. Believe me, once this is over, I will make sure you are the next one I kill."

Nacht: "Tsk…"

Charlotte: "Your family took everything from me. Because of your family, I never got to know my mother and father."

Nacht: "Thomas Albert did it."

Charlotte: "I do not give a damn who did it. It was your family."

Nacht: "Huh. Shh."

Charlotte: "What now. Want more trouble."

He covered her mouth.

Charlotte: "Mmm."

Nacht: "Shh. Damn it. Can women never be quiet."

Charlotte: "Mmm."

Nacht: "Someone is here."

Charlotte: "Mm?"

Nacht: "Be quiet, okay."

Charlotte: "Mmm."

Step step step

"I am so tired."

"Hehe. The night is still young. Come on, that is not why you hired me."

Nacht: "A pleasure district in this city?"

Charlotte: "Hey…"

Nacht: "That is strange…"

Charlotte: "Hey… could you stop… your hand is touching my stomach."

Nacht: "Huh?"

She turned red and he pulled his hand away.

Nacht: "Oh, sorry…"

Charlotte: "Hmm."

Nacht: "I have to say… it felt wet… do you sweat a lot."

Charlotte: "That is not funny. I just have very moist skin."

Nacht: "I think you should find different wording. What would people say if you said that."

Charlotte: "Ugh… I am not a prostitute."

Nacht: "That is obvious. I just mean… be glad I am not Diego. He would lick his hand where your sweat is."

Charlotte: "Is he that perverted."

Nacht: "Leave him alone with five women in one room and come back in five years, and it is a village."

Charlotte: "Sweat… um… okay, I heard enough."

Meanwhile

Diego: "Hmm…"

Kisa: "Hmm…"

Mona: "Hmm…"

Diego: "…"

Everyone sat silently.

Diego: "Aaaaargh. I cannot take it. I cannot take it. What are they doing for so long. Do you think they are doing something perverted and lying to us?"

Kisa: "Huh?"

Mona: "Your imagination is only perverted. Think about something else."

Kisa: "Huh?"

Imagination

Charlotte: "Hehe… let's get married…"

Nacht: "Yes… and make twenty kids."

Charlotte: "Oh no… that turns me on."

Kisa: "Huh!"

End of imagination

Mona: "Just stop. Charlotte may be a girl who likes to show herself, but she would never do perverted things."

Diego: "Maybe they are perverted."

Mona: "You have no right to speak. You are perverted enough to turn the whole school into a maternity hospital."

Back to Nacht and Charlotte

Charlotte: "…So this is it."

Nacht: "Yes."

Charlotte: "Listen. I will kill him."

Nacht: "Wait. You should not underestimate Thomas. His magic is terrifying."

Charlotte: "Which is."

Charlotte looked at him.

Nacht: "His magic steals people's mana. And he can use both nature magic and striking magic."

Charlotte: "What, an element and an attack magic."

Nacht: "Yes. Even my father did not allow him to go to wars. Thomas is brutal and abuses women and children. He might not even really see us as enemies. He looks like a nice guy, with long dark brown hair, but he is dangerous. He also likes selling the organs of his victims. My father called him the mage of brutality. You must follow rules."

Charlotte: "Hmm?"

Nacht held up three fingers.

Nacht: "Rule one. If he asks you a question, answer immediately. Thomas gets angry fast. Rule two. Do not let him get close to you. Rule three. Under no circumstances should you tell him you are a virgin or that you are Charlotte Eichenwald. Virgin means delicious prey to him, like a bear finally finding honey and taking it all."

Charlotte: "You should work on your comparisons, but fine. I got it."

They went inside. It was a large castle full of armor and paintings.

Nacht: "Hmm…"

Charlotte: "Please do not tell me these paintings are ghostkeepers."

Ghostkeepers are spirits that live inside paintings. If they get used to you, they live in the same house and protect anyone, as long as you have a contract with them.

Nacht: "I do not know."

Charlotte: "Hmm."

Step step

"Attention, attention. It has been a long time, my lord."

It was Thomas, clapping his hands the whole time.

Nacht: "Thomas."

Thomas: "Greetings, my lord. Oho, and a girlfriend. What a pretty woman."

Nacht: "She is underage."

Thomas: "That does not matter. Age is just a number, have you heard that saying. Hehehe. Anyway, my lord… as I see, this is Charlotte Eichenwald."

Nacht: "Ugh. How."

Thomas: "The wound on the neck. I made it when she was a baby. Do you remember."

Charlotte: "Tsk… so you killed my family."

Thomas: "Indeed… on the order of a master… hehe… so do not…"

Charlotte: "You will regret it."

Nacht: "Ugh."

Thomas: "Listen… did you just dare to interrupt me. That is an injury to my dignity, my rights. It is written in the rights of humans!"

Nacht: "Sweat… what is he even talking about."

Thomas smiled.

Thomas: "You can be glad. Honestly, I got an order some time ago… to kill you."

Nacht: "Hmm?"

Of course, neither Nacht nor Charlotte knew who or why. They had not heard about the five Cinder Tales yet.

Thomas: "Hehehe. So tell me, young lord, why are you helping an Eichenwald."

Nacht: "I have to help her because you messed up."

Thomas: "Tsahahaha. Come on. I only did what your father ordered."

Charlotte: "Tell me one thing. Why. Why did you do this to my family."

Thomas: "Oh. Story time. Fine."

He snapped his fingers. Music began, and a large board appeared.

Thomas: "Three thousand years ago, when there were still dragons and demons and the world of Grimm was somewhat peaceful, there existed five kingdoms. Britanika, Deleresso, Antika, Krasnau, Stonehold, and Wunderturm. Those kingdoms ruled the world of Grimm. Of course, one kingdom after another fell. But each kingdom had a mage company that fought wars. Von Zephyr was the one of Britanika. Deleresso belonged to the Eichenwald family. The Eichenwald family also existed in Wunderturm. Meanwhile, Krasnau and Antika had the mages Monet and Kafka. Naturally, Von Zephyr and Eichenwald were the greatest enemies because the two kingdoms, Deleresso and Britanika, always fought. Then, when the wars ended, Deleresso and Stonehold were finished and were completely destroyed, and the Eichenwald family lived near the Fairy Tale Forest as a hiding place. That is all. The reason is simple. A hatred between families that has existed for a long time. Long story short, the sin of your parents was that they came from that family."

Snap

The music stopped and the board vanished.

Charlotte: "You mean… my family was murdered only because of that."

Thomas: "Indeed. Hehehe. I can understand why you are so angry. It would stink if I were you. Nehehehehe. Anyway, I am done with story time. Hehe."

He suddenly stood in front of Charlotte.

Thomas: "I got you."

He started choking her.

Thomas: "Hehe."

Charlotte: "Ugh… gahh…"

Nacht: "Oh no…"

Nacht attacked him, but at that exact moment, a slash opened Nacht's chest.

Nacht: "Urk."

Splat

Thomas: "Forgive me, young lord, but you are not like your father, whom I admired so much. He was like a monster. In wars, he allowed children to die and women to be abused. Working under him as a soldier and butler… hehehe… was fun. Your family was too kind, that is why they lost. Kindness is not always good. Hehehe."

Charlotte: "Urk… gahhhh…"

Thomas: "Hehe."

She managed to touch his stomach with her magic staff.

Charlotte: "El… fredes…"

Thomas: "Ugh…"

Kaboom

He was thrown back several meters.

Crash

Charlotte: "Ugh… cough… cough… ugh… hahhh…"

She stood up immediately. She finally took out her fairy tale, Alice in Wonderland, and her weapon appeared. The hat made her outfit change.

Charlotte: "Ghhh… regret it…"

She raised her staff.

Charlotte: "Tepleso."

Rabbits burst out of the hat and attacked him.

Charlotte: "Attack him."

She rushed to Nacht.

Charlotte: "Hey… what is wrong… wake up already."

Meanwhile, in Nacht's mind

"I see… you died again."

Nacht: "Hmm…"

"It has been a long time, Nacht… since you died."

Nacht: "Not long enough. Not even two months."

"Aww… did you not miss me."

Nacht: "Witch of Corruption, Lemosel. Of course not."

Two hands wrapped around him. A woman with violet skin and white hair appeared.

Lemosel: "My dear Nacht… I missed you."

Nacht: "You are always someone who likes bothering little kids."

Lemosel: "Do not talk like that. Be nice and drink the tea."

Nacht: "Tea made from your sweat and tears?"

Lemosel: "Well… we could do it another way. You could kiss me. But you do not want that."

Nacht: "Can you not just leave me alone."

Lemosel: "Corrupted boy… Nacht… at age fourteen, you have died more than ten million times. Your body is starting to rot. You should not keep searching. My sweat slows it down."

Nacht: "Hahh…"

He took the cup and drank.

Nacht: "Disgusting… I will never get used to that…"

Everything began to float. The table, the world, the trees. She hugged him.

Lemosel: "Hehe. It is time again. Nacht… we will see each other at your next death. I love you."

Nacht: "Ghh…"

He woke up.

Nacht: "Ugh… damn it… Charlotte… ugh!"

Charlotte: "Ugh… urk…"

Nacht: "Ugh…"

Charlotte was lying on the floor.

Charlotte: "Ugh…"

Nacht: "No… Charlotte."

He ran to her and lifted her a little. Then he noticed plants that were slowly closing her wounds.

Thomas: "Nehehehe… what is wrong, young lord… you are back again… so it is true… you have the resurrection curse…"

Charlotte: "Ugh…"

Nacht: "What did you do to her."

Thomas: "Nothing. I only made her mana flow unstable."

Nacht: "Ugh."

Thomas: "That confuses the plants. Instead of healing her, they attack her organs."

Nacht: "Ugh."

Charlotte: "Ugh… gahhhh…"

Nacht: "Thomas, stop it right now."

Thomas: "Tsk. Do not give me orders. You are still a child. Who do you think you are. That is against my dignity, my rights."

Nacht: "You have no rights or dignity. A man like you, who abuses women, who enjoys torturing people because he does not want to show his fears and weakness, you are a coward."

Thomas: "Ugh… ghhhhh."

The whole building started shaking.

Thomas: "Who are you calling a coward. You miserable brat. I will abuse your girlfriend in front of your eyes and make her beg. I will enjoy her body."

Nacht: "Try it."

Nacht touched Charlotte's throat and stomach so her mana flow returned to normal.

Nacht: "I am sorry. I will handle it."

Thomas: "Ghhh…"

Nacht: "I gave her a little of my mana. I hope you are not annoyed."

Thomas: "You bastard!"

Nacht pulled out his fairy tale, Sleepy Hollow.

Nacht: "Ichabod."

Ichabod: "Yes. Let us finish him."

They forced the transformation.

Nacht: "Ugh…"

As always, the pale white skin and dark brows.

Nacht: "You are finished. I will make sure of it."

But they did not notice.

Charlotte: "Hahhh."

Roots wrapped around Charlotte, and large red flowers appeared around her. The roots went into her heart.

Pump pump pump

Crash

Thomas Albert: "Nehahaha."

The fire paintings and sword paintings became real and attacked Nacht.

Nacht: "Ghhh."

He dodged them.

Thomas Albert: "Oh, my little lord. You are a disgrace to the Zephyr family. Hehehe. You still do not know your mother, do you."

Nacht: "Ghhh."

Thomas Albert: "Selawi… hehehe… come on…"

Nacht: "Arms of Darkness!"

They grabbed at him, but Thomas dodged.

Thomas Albert: "Hehehe."

He stepped into a painting.

Nacht: "Ugh… he can travel through paintings."

Ichabod: "That is Thomas's magiya. He can influence anything he touches. Organs and objects. That is how he killed Charlotte's mother, by making her organs burst."

Thomas Albert: "Gahahahaha."

He appeared behind Nacht. Nacht dodged quickly.

Thomas Albert: "Fooled you."

Chain paintings captured Nacht.

Nacht: "Ghhh."

Thomas Albert: "What is wrong, my lord. Stay right there. I do not want to focus only on you… huh?"

Nacht: "Ugh."

They turned around. Flowers were everywhere.

Thomas Albert: "Huh?"

A huge flower appeared. It opened, and Charlotte came out, lightly dressed, only in an undershirt and short pants.

Charlotte: "Hahhh…"

She stood up. One of her eyes had a red flower coming out of it. Her wounds were healing through the roots. Her heart was even visible.

Pump pump pump

Charlotte: "Luckily… I have my plants…"

The plants attacked Thomas Albert and held him in place.

Thomas Albert: "Your heart… should be…"

Charlotte: "You barely missed my heart. The plants protected me. Have you ever heard of the Thorn Curse."

Thomas Albert: "Huh?"

Charlotte: "It is not as strong as Nacht's curse, but it regenerates my body by turning roots into my veins. It is not cool though. I can still die. The Thorn Curse can only happen once a month. You were unlucky."

Pump pump

Charlotte: "There are many ways to kill me. Still, your effort was not enough. I just cannot age. And my wounds heal. That is all."

Thomas Albert: "These plants… gahhhh…"

Charlotte: "Fangroot plants. Forget it. Even if you break free, you will have to sacrifice at least an arm and a leg."

Thomas Albert: "Annoying. You damn brat. That is an insult to my dignity, my rights. Gaaaaaargh!"

He broke free.

Charlotte: "Ugh…"

Thomas Albert: "Ghhh…"

He sacrificed one arm and even an eye, but the paintings replaced them, and painted arm and eye became part of his body.

Charlotte: "But… what…"

Thomas Albert: "Hehehe. I will ruin your body. You have a great figure. Abusing you…"

Then a loud voice appeared, saying that is enough, and footsteps came closer.

Charlotte: "Huh?"

Nacht: "Ugh…"

It was Liora.

Liora: "Hmph. You are really not that strong."

Thomas Albert: "Wait… this was not the deal."

Liora: "We knew you would lose. You are not a real mage. You cannot even take down children."

Thomas Albert: "Ghhh. Do not insult me. Do not interfere."

He attacked her, but she simply walked past him.

Thomas Albert: "Huh…"

Splat

His skin ripped away, leaving only flesh. He screamed in pain. Then his flesh exploded.

Splat

Thomas Albert: "Urk…"

His heart was not visible.

Thomas Albert: "…"

Liora: "Probably in that painting over there, right."

She stuck her hand into the painting and pulled out the heart.

Pump pump pump

Liora: "…"

She crushed it, and he fell dead to the floor. Nacht was freed.

Charlotte: "Are you okay?"

Nacht: "Yes… but who is that."

Liora looked at them.

Liora: "Hmph. You were lucky. We will see each other one day."

An eye appeared and she stepped into it.

Liora: "Send my greetings to the Big Bad Wolf and tell him I will kill him with my own hands. You five Cinder Tales will die."

Then she vanished.

Nacht: "…Hmm."

Charlotte: "…Hahh."

She almost fell to the floor after Liora disappeared, but Nacht caught her.

Nacht: "Hey…"

Charlotte: "Hahhh…"

Nacht: "Your wounds are not fully healed."

Charlotte: "My flowers only heal the dangerous wounds, and the red Thorn Curse… I can only use it once a month. I was lucky… hahh… but it hurts."

Nacht: "I will carry you."

He carried her.

Charlotte: "Why are you doing that. I thought… you hated us Eichenwald…"

Nacht: "Before… but now…"

He looked at her.

Nacht: "Now I think you are kind of okay."

Charlotte: "Huh."

She blushed, then sighed.

Charlotte: "What is that supposed to mean."

Nacht: "That I want to be friends with you… like the others. Do you agree."

Charlotte: "You almost made my eye burst, and for some reason it does not heal even though it is dangerous."

Nacht: "Not exactly. It does not kill you. Also my magiya makes healing not work."

Charlotte: "Hahh… tell me…"

Nacht: "Yes?"

Charlotte: "Do you really want me to be with you."

Nacht: "If you want to."

Charlotte: "Hahh… can I think about it."

Nacht: "Yeah. Let's go back first."

A few days later

After the death of Thomas Albert, things became quiet for a while, but not for long.

Liora: "Hmm."

Frandriskus: "You killed him? Why?"

Liora: "Because he did not succeed."

Frandriskus: "Are you serious? He could have beaten them. You cannot just do whatever you want."

Liora: "Hmm."

She kept walking. Frandriskus grabbed her arm.

Liora: "Hmm?"

Frandriskus: "I hope it is not because he belonged to Zephyr… and because he was involved in your family's death?"

Liora: "If it was, I would have killed the boy Nacht von Zephyr. It would be boring if they died that fast, wouldn't it."

Frandriskus: "If His Majesty finds out, what happens then?"

Liora: "His Majesty gave me these powers, which means he trusts me. Nobody is allowed to…"

Frandriskus: "Hmm?"

Liora: "I will personally kill the five Cinder Tales. And I will avenge my family by killing the Big Bad Wolf, and destroying his fairy tale, Little Red Riding Hood and the Wolf."

Frandriskus: "Hahh. Anyway, he failed. We overestimated him. The five Cinder Tales are not even strong right now."

Liora: "Then we should use that."

Frandriskus: "Hmm… that is difficult. And we are not sure how strong they truly are. They defeated Thomas Albert, even if we overestimated him. Two Ages said the weakest Cinder Tale is Kisa Pushkin because her fairy tale is not especially dangerous."

Liora: "Hmm…"

Frandriskus: "Anyway, we will leave it for now. Two Ages is watching them already."

Meanwhile

Kisa: "We have a new friend. Hehehe."

Charlotte: "…"

Charlotte turned red.

Kisa: "Hehehe…"

Charlotte: "So… um… I am glad… if I can… be friends with you."

Nacht: "Hmm."

Diego: "Oh…"

Mona: "Hmm… do you realize this is weird."

Charlotte: "Hm… so…"

She looked at Nacht and blushed.

Diego: "Ugh."

Mona: "Huh!"

They started looking at each other and whispering.

Mona: "Did you see that."

Diego: "Yeah. Definitely. Something is going on."

Mona: "Did she…"

Diego: "It could be that he did something to her… maybe it happened by accident and she is pregnant."

Mona: "Sweat… you realize if someone would do something like that, it would be you."

Diego: "You are right… true… but still, it is weird. She likes him."

Mona: "Shh… not so loud."

Kisa: "What are you two talking about."

Nacht: "Hmm…"

Charlotte: "Huh?"

Mona: "…"

Charlotte: "What is wrong with me… why… why do I feel this pressure in my heart… I did not… did I…"

Nacht: "Is your eye better now?"

Charlotte: "Huh… yes…"

Kisa: "Welcome to the Phantoms."

Charlotte: "Phantoms?"

Nacht: "That is the name of our group."

Charlotte: "Are you in it too, Mona?"

Mona: "I would say yes."

Charlotte: "Oh…"

Nacht: "How is your eye."

Charlotte: "Ugh… yes… good… better. I can use it again now."
