"The Ratri clan is not able to betray the demons. If anyone is discovered doing so, it's the whole clan's blunder. The previous head, James Ratri and his comrades, posed as Willian Minerva and his supporters, led cattle children to escape, personally helped them, and were conspirators in the destruction of Lambda." Norman said.
"You don't say?" Cislo gasped.
"So they're hiding it, trying to cover it up..." Barbara said.
"Right. That's why the Ratri clan won't work with the demons. They'll be independent through and through. In order to deal with us escapees, they have no choice but to move in secret. They're completely isolated because of this." Norman explained.
"Therefore, we'll strike the Royal Capital first. They're desperate to catch us, escapees, without arousing suspicion from the demons. So first, we'll take down the Capital and royalty. I'm sure Peter Ratri will start to get impatient. And for a partially unrelated reason, he's been stalled on this matter. Even after death, Minerva is helping us cattle children. William Minerva has been the most oversized shackle to the Ratri clan. Everything that's played out has been just as he thought it would. Or at least, it should be."

Somewhere else, a long-haired man kneeled in front of Legravalima who stared down at him from her throne.
"I have something to tell you." The man said.
~Flashback~
"You're going to tell the Queen everything?!"
"Lord Peter?!"
"Dealing with this behind closed doors is no longer possible. It's already too late to change this situation." Peter said to the group ahead of him.
"But, wouldn't that mean, we who are supposed to mediate between two worlds, are robbing her, no, them of their food?"
"If this is revealed to them, our order, no...the order between the two worlds will be broken!"
"But it's still not the worst case for the Queen. 22194, 94194, and 2 other premium quality goods, along with the others are still alive, carefree. "You can still have them". If we're talking about the Queen, she won't think with reason or morality, but with her feelings. The only thing that can pique her interest is her own selfishness." Peter said.
"But...Isn't 94194 not to be eaten? Aren't we supposed to-" A man tried to reason with Peter.
"It doesn't matter! You want me not to speak? Not to act? Ah, that would all be according to those traitors' calculations. So, we'll demolish those calculations this time around. No matter the risk. To protect the order, to honor our clan! That is all. I won't allow the cattle children to do as they please. I'm betting everything on one move." Peter grit his teeth.
~End of Flashback~
"That is all." Peter said to Legravalima.
"I see." Legravalima said.
"The destruction of Lambda was not the work of bandits. The likelihood is very high that the Lambda cattle children and Grace Field escapees are still alive. And they're the ones destroying the plantations and hiding out." Peter explained.
"And?" Legravalima questioned.
"Please lend me half of the expeditionary force that you are sending out. I will capture all of the escapees and offer them up to you without fail." Peter said.
"That's absurd. Why must I lend you anything? My troops? Wouldn't that mean that you lot are incompetent?" Legravalima sneered.
"That is correct." Peter said.
