When Athanasia and Jennette left Anasticius alone in the crowd. A certain purple haired appeared beside the man. She had a blank expression across her face while she stares at the distance where the two girls disappeared.
"Ahh, Maui. Did I made you wait too long, dear?" The man beside her questioned which made her glance to him.
He just stared at him with no expression on her face. He stared back before chuckling, he started walking towards a dark alleyway with the girl following him from behind.
—
"...Yes, thank you for being my guide."
Anasticius stated with a smile while waving his hand goodbye to Jennette who looked quite sad to leave him alone, without know that there was already someone behind him to keep him company.
"What do you think about my daughter, Maui?" He questioned as he glanced beside him where the girl is revealed.
"..." She didn't answer like the usual since she can only speak when Aeternitas is possessing her body.
"You were the one who planted a protection spell on her, right? Judging by how familiar her scent was, I thought that it was you and I confirmed it when I finally captured you." He chuckled.
He was too distracted to realize how the girl's dull eyes slightly returned it's glimmer and disappeared after a few seconds.
"He's trying very hard."
He glanced to Duke Alpheus's office.
—
"...Just keep Jennette's interest on Claude. And she'll naturally lose interest in me." Anasticius said which made Duke Alpheus sigh.
"I guess I'll overlook it for now." He sighed which made the previous emperor grin.
Suddenly, a certain girl came out of nowhere which startled the white haired man. The girl had dark purple hair and dull eyes. Anasticius smirked at his reaction.
"This is Maureen, she's the 2nd royal magician." His sentence caught the other male's interest.
"What?" Whitey blurted out in shock.
"It was pure luck since I ran into her when I was trying to help out Jennette with picking a ribbon for the princess. I took that opportunity to capture her and quickly cursed her on the spot." The emperor's brother chuckled.
Duke Alpheus just looked at him with a sweat drop across his face.
—
"..Th-Thank you. I'll treat it carefully." Jennette stated after Anasticius gave her a snow globe.
"I'm glad you like it." He smiled at her before turning around to walk away. "Then.."
He wasn't able to finish his sentence when Athanasia suddenly appeared out of nowhere and bumped onto her. Creating a static between them.
