Akaashi sighed before placing his cup back on the table, keeping his gaze on the woman before him as he spoke, "Would you mind to elaborate?"
Kei shook her head in response as she forced out a chuckle, "Not at all, that's the reason I invited you after all"
Akaashi nodded, motioning to let the woman continue. Kei sighed, fiddling with her thumb as she organized her thought, "This time, it's still a woman, I couldn't remember much but she was being executed"
The raven-haired male raised his eyebrows, "If she was being executed then I'm sure it was for a good reason"
"I guess so, but I couldn't help but worry. I don't know exactly why she was executed, but that would mean she committed a serious crime"
"True," he let his words trailing off as he tapped his chin, thoughtlessly staring into his tea, "Then I'll just have more of my men on guard if that help to ease your worries"
Kei smiled, "It really would, thank you"

Kunimi marched down the hallways, past the servants and into the dining room as requested. There sat Loretta, still preoccupied with her books and failing to notice the younger male.
Kunimi cleared his throat to get her attention, smiling when he saw Loretta's face brightened at the sight of him, "Akira! It's good to finally see you"
"I'm glad," Kunimi invited himself to take a seat, glancing at the book she was previously reading, "How was the journey?"
"Nothing interesting," Loretta chuckled, "I was too excited to see my student again, and to know you got something huge to work on!"
"I doubt murder is something to be glad about, but I guess it was something huge indeed"
"Then? Have you listed down possible suspects?"
Kunimi smiled apologetically at the elder female as he spoke, "I apologize, but unless you have a solid alibi, I'm not allowed to disclose that piece of information"
Loretta waved him off as she returned to her book, "Need not apologize, but could I at least know who you're working with?"
Kunimi shrugged slightly as he helped himself to some tea, "Well, he was no one special, I suppose. Lord Kuroo, have you heard of him?"
Loretta froze momentarily, her eyes widening before looking up to the dark-haired male in front of him, "You mean Kuroo Tetsurou? The witch hunter?"

Kuroo knocked lightly on the door of the chamber, tapping his foot lightly as he waited. Looking around, he acknowledged the trace of the protection spell cast on the door, more so the trace of the domain set up by the witch resting behind the door.
The male immediately shifted his attention back to the task at hand as he heard the door creaking open, revealing Kira and three sleeping from behind her. The witch smiled as she leaned on the door frame, already expecting the male's visit, "To what do I owe the pleasure?"
Kuroo smirked as he motioned to the males behind her, "It's not ideal for a woman to share a room with three men, is it?
"Perhaps, but that's not the reason you're here, is it?"
"You caught on quick," Kuroo's smirk widened, "I suppose you knew who I am?"
"I'm not a fan of dying, I knew who you was the first time we met"
"Then I don't have to bother with the introduction," he dropped his smirk almost immediately, glaring down at the shorter female, "I want to talk to you"
Kira sighed as she looked behind her, watching as Terushima shifted lightly in his sleep, unaware of whatever happening outside of his dreamland, "Then, let's talk somewhere else"
