Victor didn't do anything after he managed to find Rose, he just lay in bed staring at the ceiling of his room. He was thinking about Rose. Has she already eat? Where is she going to sleep? And so on.

Not only that, he also thought about his conversation with Natsume a.k.a Beta after Rose defeated Alexia. About his true identity which is a half-demon human.

"Will she still accept me after learning about the real me?" He mumbled, staring at his palm.

KNOCK

KNOCK

His room door suddenly knocked. The Son of Sparda got up immediately and opened to see who had visited. And it turns out to be a beautiful girl with long black hair and red eyes, a.k.a Claire.

"Claire? What are you doing here? It's nightfall already," said Victor, referring to the sunset.

"I'm here to give you this, Victor. Please take it" Claire handed him a ticket. That ticket wasn't an ordinary ticket, it was a ticket for the VVIP seat of the Bushin Festival tournament.

"Why did you give it to me?" Victor made a confused face.

"What did you say? You are my friend, so take it. It's hard to get it you know? I have two, so I gave one to my brother. Tomorrow I have a match, so you and Cid have to watch it" Claire replied, with the intention of being forced.

"Hahh, okay. I'll come and watch it, even though I doubt if you can win" Victor teased her.

"Don't look down on me, Victor!" Replied Claire with a smirk.

"I'm not look down on you, I'm just stating the facts" he teased her again.

"Whatever. Anyway, you should come and I will prove to you that I can win!" Claire showed seriousness through her eyes.

"Yeah, I look forward to it"

"Umm...about Rose. Are you really all right?" Claire's question was completely unexpected by Victor, just now he thought about Rose, and now she brought it up.

"If that's her choice, I can't do anything. I can only support her. But, I also hope that the path she chooses doesn't lead her into darkness. That's all. Now can you go? I'm sleepy and want to sleep" Victor said while yawning.

"Okay. See you tomorrow, Vic" Claire said goodbye from his dorm. Leaving Victor alone.

Son of Sparda stared at the VVIP ticket in his hand. Suddenly thought of something. The VVIP seats are the place for the honored guests who will watch the tournament. And that means, Doem Ketsuhat will definitely be there too.

"You can't hide anything from me, Doem Ketsuhat. After what you did to Rose, her family, and the people of Oriana"
