Hawkmoth releases a deep sigh as he feels his connection with Dark Owl disappear and looks at a spec of the magic that made him go into his cane's glass bulb.
"So, I've finally lost Stormy Weather along with Fashionista. That is unfortunate. She was one of my stronger choices. The trade may have been worth it since Dark Owl doesn't need his butterfly on him." Hawkmoth muses before changing his topic of thought to the one that led to his defeat this time, his eyes narrowing as he does so.
"So, a new Miraculous has entered the game. This is sooner than I expected. Luckily, it looks like another new user instead of someone experienced. But this still makes my life more difficult. It seems she can steal the possessed object by hitting it with that ball. Not only that, but she can also control my Akumas if I'm not careful. It looked like she knew martial arts, too. She'll be a dangerous foe." Hawkmoth analyzes Canine's abilities from what he saw through Dark Owl and Stormy Weather.
He releases a heavy sigh while walking through his base until he reaches a specific area. In that area, Emillie rests in a white-framed glass-top coffin surrounded by nature.
"It seems things have gotten more difficult since I started, my dear. Another Miraculous wielder has shown up. It has become a three-on-one situation where I'm fighting the two strongest Miraculous and another. My only reassurance is that all three users look young and new." Hawkmoth explains to the sleeping woman.
"I won't give up, though. I'll find a way to save you, even if the Butterfly Miraculous isn't enough." Hawkmoth states with a tone of finality before walking away.
Before he gets to the stairwell leading away from her, though, he turns back one last time and says.
"I love you."
With that, he leaves.
Above the lair in Adrien's room, the teen is shocked and relieved to know that Ladybug managed to defeat the villains without his help.
"Well, looks like your friend stepped up her game." Plagg nonchalantly says while relaxing on his cheese.
"Yeah, it's surprising that she beat Stormy Weather and the new Akuma too. I mean, it makes sense. She does have a cool power that lets her pretty much do anything. But still." Adrien says while rubbing the back of the head.
"Don't be too hard on yourself, kid. You've been doing good as a hero, too." Plagg tells him, quickly realizing what Adrien is thinking.
Adrien winches when he realizes he's been caught and nervously laughs.
"Sorry. It's just crazy to realize we started at the same time, but she can handle two Akumas while I barely handled Simon Says last time." He apologizes to Plagg.
Before Plagg can say anything, he can feel Ladybug message Cat Noir.
"Hold that note, kid. Your partner just sent you a message." Plagg says before summoning Cat Noir's baton into Adrien's hands.
Adrien is nervous when he hears this, thinking it's Ladybug being angry with him for not showing up. He opens the message.
"Cat Noir, I hope you're okay. There were a couple of Akumas at Françoise Dupont." Ladybug's voice informs him through the recording.
Adrien winches before Ladybug goes on.
"That's not the important part, though. Barkk found a wielder, and she arrived to help me fight. I don't think I would have won without her help. One of the Akumas didn't have their possessed object on them and hid it. We have to be on the lookout for those now." Ladybug's message explains.
Adrien's eyes widen in shock at what he's hearing. Ladybug had just dropped two different bombs on him.
"If you're okay, please meet me at our usual meeting spot around seven or eight. So we can talk about everything. I'll try and get Canine to come, too. So I can introduce you to each other. Hope you're okay, bye." Ladybug says this last part worriedly before the recording ends.
