The room features a crystal table surrounded by six wooden chairs opposite her throne is a pair of simple wooden double doors that are the only entrance to the room. Several crystal formations surround the room with white candles on their tops, and behind Salem's throne is a crystal table adorned with several white candles. Above the table is a chandelier made out of branches and crystals with the floor is being made of square, reflective tiles.

Salem slams her hand on the large table, the fall of Union was both a victory and a defeat for her. Union, Vale fell to her hands and the Villans but it was also her defeat due to her trump card has died and the maiden powers now in the world are held by a random woman instead of a member of her Circle.

Her remaining members are Arthur Watts, Tyrian, and Hazel who are in separate missions trying to find members for the circle leaving the empress alone in the castle, though with a side mission for each of them trying to find the new Fall Maiden and convince her to join.

A bullhead fly over the deep waters of the ocean as inside it are the top hunters of (Y/N)'s Academy while the rest stayed in the dream preparing for (Y/N)'s beck and call. The head hunter tells them to prepare as Summer and Ruby use eye drops to try and help their eyes.

The waters slowly turned black.

"Boss, you might want to see this," Auburn tells him.

(Y/N) enters the cockpit and sees land but... it's black and reeks of darkness. "Looks like we are near." He comments. "Find a safe place to land."

"Roger that." Auburn replies and (Y/N) leaves to the cargo.

"So?" Yamato asks.

"We are near, prepare your weapons." (Y/N) answers.

It didn't take long until the bullhead lands opening its doors opened and they landed on the somewhat normal but different shores of Salem's lands. They began to venture forth leaving the bullhead on the shores.

It didn't take long until they reach the dark palace gripping the handle of his chikage he slashes the air summoning a silvery portal. Footsteps were heard as hunters enter from the dream and now he has a battalion.

Each hunter held a cannon on their shooting arm Each splitting up into ten having 9 groups to work with.

"Three of you go up the roof. Another three will be on one side and the last will be on another. Don't shoot until I rang the bell." The Hunters nodded and began to split off.

(Y/N) turns to his elite hunters. "Prevent her escape I'll greet her head-on."

They nodded and they began to walk towards the entrance.

'All that stories Master, I'll use it to my advantage.'

Salem was sitting on her throne thinking about a plan. What if she works with the hunters? She has talked to people and can provide them what about the hunter's the want something right? Right?

She was cut off as there was a knock on the door. "Enter!" She yelled.

The door opens by none other than the head hunter himself, (Y/N) wearing Gerhman's outfit.

"The queen of Grimm herself, Salem. We finally meet once more." (Y/N) greets as he bows before walking over to the large table and stand on one end.
