It was time to see Queen Alice, she would determine the next mission for the VENOM squad. Once everyone in the squad entered to see Alice's presence, Harley appeared in the middle of everyone, in front of her, bows and smiles sadistically at her. Alice presents Harley with a map of the Celestial Palace. He had informed him that his mission was to get there in order to obtain the blessing of the last sacred orb that was not mentioned in the legend of the Magical Vessel. Harley was so excited that he couldn't wait for the squad and started walking away from them while looking at the map.

Behind the octopus was the whole squad with determined faces to attack whoever approached them. Harley observed that there was a hidden temple in the Moonlit Forest, this would be the Lunar Temple of which they had studied so much at the Magic Academy. They would have to pass close to the Moniyan Empire, but they couldn't pass that close after the recent attack. They needed to go as unnoticed as possible. It would not be that difficult for some professional assassins, so they kept walking until they reached the forest.

Harley's memories weren't concrete, but that didn't stop him. He knew there was something weird going on in his mind, but he just ignored it for the moment. The priority was to carry out Queen Alice's mission as quickly as possible. There was no time to lose, it was very likely that the moniyan warriors were going to be nearby the area looking for clues from the recent attack.

Harith's pov

I can't believe we're here waiting to find Harley and the others. Are they really thinking that they are just going to wait for us to get to them? My family can't be that dumb... (sighs) They are most likely far away now, I can't even smell them, I should have followed them even if I was running ... (looks around to see Alucard and Granger looking around) I know they do it with the best intention, but this shouldn't have happened like that, I only went to rest for 1 hour, 1 hour away from Harley and this happens ... It was to be expected, it was obvious, (facepalms) and ... and I knew it, but I wanted to ignore it. I'm the worst, I can't forgive myself for this, and what if ... he wakes up? If he wakes up ... and I'm not there ... he will feel alone ... abandoned ... because I couldn't do anything to save him. (Sheds tears)

While Harith was crying uncontrollably Alucard, and Granger could only comfort him and ask him to calm down. It was not easy to think that the magician was kidnapped, what would they be doing to him? Would he be alright? Had he woken up yet? All these questions ran through the Inspirer's mind. Inadvertently a sound quickly caught his attention.

Blades everywhere started firing, it looked like a battlefield. The walls followed him from the floor, cornering the warriors, they could do nothing but prepare in an attack position, dodging everything that was thrown at them. Gusion and Hanabi rushed towards Alucard and Granger and managed to pin them to Grock's walls. Harith had no choice but to start attacking them, but just before he delivered his first blow Harith noticed a surprise attack.
