In the tomb of Cereus, a familiar long white hair can be seen standing. He wore a black suit and brought white flowers.

He put the flowers on the grave in silence with a face that nobody can explain what he was thinking.

"Yo, Argentum, or shall I say, Lyle, if you prefer?~" A man with red messy hair and red eyes look at Argentum with snickering eyes.

He wore a lab coat and noticeable black circles in his eyes can be seen.

"...." Argentum looks at the man with fierce eyes.

"Woah~ Don't get angry at me, ok? Who would have thought that this child is the host of the embryo?~ Anyways, she can't live more than a few weeks when the embryo started forming you know~" The man said as he raise his arm, hinting that he means no harm.

"..."

"Even that girl, I believed her name was Aya? To think that the nourishment in blooming the flower that cures all diseases is none other than her sick sister! How funny fate is! Don't you think?"

A sharp pointy big needle pops out from nowhere and points it toward the man with red hair.

Argentum looks at him with an angry expression for a moment before going back to a poker face.

"Shut up, Daemon. Your voice is very annoying to hear" Argentum warned him as he looked dangerously on edge with a calm exterior.

Daemon felt shivers on his back, but that feeling made him smile more sinisterly than before.

The atmosphere was filled with dangerous intent and silence filled them.

Suddenly, the rain started pouring but this didn't make the two flinch in their positions. A loud click of wooden sandals can be heard, making both looks in the direction.

A man wearing Japanese kimono is composed of haori, nagagi, and hakama. He was carrying an umbrella called wagasa and had a samurai sword with its scabbard on his waist.

(Author's note: I just get my inspiration on the outfit from google, if I have wrong names in the male Japanese kimono, forgive me and please let me know, so I can correct it ^_^ Thanks!)

His hair is cleanly cut. His black hair is like a deep night colored while his eyes look like a diamond shining from the sunset.

"Everyone is called upon. I'm here to deliver the message" He said curtly.

"Hah~~ Such a shame, we were just going to the good part-" Daemon stopped when he heard fast steps towards them. When the sound took a turn toward them, he was shocked by the person's appearance.

Argentum was shocked as well as a familiar face appears in front of him.

Lena who was wet from the rain, walk fast towards Cereus's tomb since there is a roof on the tomb.

Lena thought that there was someone in the tomb since she heard voices, but it seems she felt like her mind must be tricking her.

Because of the rain, the fight between Neoteros and the Crow's group was held.

Neoteros wants to shield Lena from the rain, but since Lena is quite paranoid after the event where Rowan saw Neoteros, she suggested that he should hide for now, and since the tomb is near, she would just make a run to it.

Lena wipes herself from the rain. She looks at the flowers and thankfully, it was safe and sound.

"I should have brought an umbrella next time" Hearing her voice, Argentum looks guilty making Daemon look at him with no expression on his face.
