[In Liberty Woods...]

Lilith and Leo stops walking as soon as they were both alone.

"Well... you said you'd explain to me what happened."

"Yes but I can only make a rough guess, earlier Edith said that the virus is a person and it emerged out of the system, correct?"

She asks again.

"Yeah."

Leo answers.

"Then that means that person isn't a human, not many people can put a virus in the system. Except me.... and even if they did Daniel would only eliminate them, except me....."

"Okay! I get it, you're both amazing!"

Leo exclaimed, getting annoyed by how she kept praising herself. Lilith slightly embarrassed, clears her throat and continues,

"Right, point is Edith and I took the safe option of placing a bug and just monitoring the system."

"So do you know what kind of person or rather the virus is?"

Leo asks, Lilith breathes deeply before answering.

"No, but one thing is for sure that..... this could be a threat."

Lilith shows a picture of Blackhole fighting Daniel in the Main System, Leo is shocked to see this.

"And that's not all it seems that Daniel contacted the 7 Divine Envoys after that, not sure what they talked about but it was most likely how to deal with that person."

She assumes.

"So its not just a threat to the Tournament but also to the Envoys, why don't they just get rid of him now?"

He wonders.

"Well, either he is too powerful for Daniel to handle or they need him for something."

"Need him for what?"

He asks.

"I don't know..."

She answers and sees Leo making a worried face.

I understand why he's worried... even I am, after all the trickiest enemy to deal with is one you know nothing about...
Lilith thought to herself.

"For now why don't we focus getting stronger atleast, we have a head start. Unlike the other contestants not knowing about the incident.... or anything at all."

She chuckles awkwardly at their situation.

"You're right, we have to be prepared for what's coming."

He agrees with her.

"While you guys do that, I'll keep an eye on that guy."

Edith informs them and they both agree.

[In another part of Liberty Forest...]

With King and Shidou after hunting a Wild Boar together, they obtained 150 points but still have not changed their rankings.

Just as they moved on to their next prey, a Phantom Dragon appears out of nowhere. It roars loudly to the both of them as if to say they are now its prey.

Shitou who is surprised by its sudden appearance starts panicking.

"Oh no! What should we do!? That's an A-Rank monster, The Phantom Dragon! We can't possibly defeat that monster with just the two of us! Quick! King we have to run away!"
