When Marc gets out of the house with Lily and Kro, he quietly leans over Lily and whispers: "I have something to tell to you, Lily."
"Somebody didn't show up?" Lily asks quietly turning her head towards Marc.
Marc nods quietly and Lily asks again, "Who?"
"Storm," Marc replies, looking around.
Lily huffs softly and stands by the door, "Warn the towers. Close the city borders. If she's gone somewhere, it's critically important that he doesn't get away."
Marc nods quietly and grabs his phone and waits for Kro to walk behind him and then walks steadily through the hall door.
The look in his eyes is icy, but the stand is firm. The expression on her face is calm and emotionless, and her handshake is loud, but attention-grabbingly strict and firm.
Everyone turns their eyes to Lily, except for Adrian, who is quietly staring at the table in front of him.
"Can we start?" Lily asks looking at her team.
Marc quickly rushes to the other team members and presses himself against the back side of the wall with a loud thump, upon which Adrian leaps into the air out of sheer fright, and pushes Shadow to the ground from the edge.
"Imbecile!" Snake hisses angrily and pulls Shadow towards him.
Than, who has remained silent until now, asks with a grin, "Well, what now, Frenchman? Nerves out?"
"Do you have a habit of reacting so inadequately to another's fright?"
"Speaking of the person who dared to whip my stomach," Shadow mutters as she clutches his stomach.
"That's enough!" Lily says, slamming her hands on the table again, and mutters, "All activities not related to this meeting will be resolved between you."
Kro takes a step closer to Lily and Lily leans her back closer to Kro and says, "We don't have time for petty squabbles like this... Especially now that we have a chance to take over the World Empire."
"And how do you plan to take over this empire while you're here?" Lev asks, raising an eyebrow.
"Because I can't take on the world alone. I need allies. At the same time, we should also wait for the right moment when to attack," replies Lily, stepping forward.
"We've waited enough! If we don't attack now, then when?" asks Alina, standing next to Lev.
"Because we only have one chance. And if it is thwarted, it is not very possible to get a second chance."
"You have been promising us such things for years! When are you going to do it? Or you live purely for the sake of manipulation," asks Electra, tilting her head.
"You chose me. Now let me finish it," says Lilyoma, trying to keep calm.
"We have the opportunity to do so. If only you would trust Lily, then..." Kro begins to say.
