I was in the hallway when I passed a young man with auburn hair, he looked enough like Fancy for me to make the connection between the two.
The latter stopped in front of me and curtseyed, as a sign of respect, which tickled my mind.  Something else  caught my attention was the fact that I had the impression  I had already seen the young man somewhere but where, I couldn't put my finger on it.

“My Lady, it is an immense honor for me to see you again since the last time…”

I remained contemplative for a long time before the obvious hit me: this man was the same man to whom I had given the letter for the Solsten home.

"You are?"

“I am Rahan, Fancy’s older brother…”

“Ah I see... and you walk around here without being worried?”  It's true, given how annoying the butler is, I'd be surprised if he let the brother of a simple servant, and mine at that, wander around the manor so freely.  Certainly Karl's condition monopolizes all his attention, making him incoherent.
Such attachment and dedication commands admiration I must say.

  “The thing is…” he caught my attention “I was called by my sister, and when she told me that you were going to hire some staff, I rushed over.  And I’m not the only one, in the backyard, many people came in droves for the chance to be engaged.”

I was silent for a long time, Fancy really fulfilled my expectations by being so proactive.  She had already understood with her investigations that as soon as I started, many people were going to jump and with what I had gathered as "proof", it was obvious that I would need new staff, especially loyal to my cause  .

“Okay, I see, but you're not here for the same reason as them, are you?”

“Yes my Lady, Fancy told me that you need me for a case and I came to tell you that I managed to carry it out.”

"Already ?"

“Yes my Lady, this kind of thing is very easy for me so yes I am already finished.”

“Alright... you don't need to go through the auditions you're already committed... For now you'll just be in charge of certain errands but know that that will change shortly.”

“It’s an honor my lady”

“Okay, go find Fancy, tell her to show you your room and if you have any problems come see me.”

With that, I separated from Rahan and ran to my room to find Azef.

“My darling~~~”

Azef was surprised by the surprise attack on him but managed to contain it putting Mylène on his thighs.

“Mylène…”

“My darling, I’m quite satisfied with my day, how about we go for a walk?”

“But I have to go do what you talked about…”

“You will do it at the same time”

"GOOD.  .. so let's go."

We both climbed out the window, surprising me to find myself up in the air, the wind blowing through my hair.

“Azef?”

I had closed my eyes without realizing it and when I opened them again, I was above the clouds.
I felt the surface I was sitting on and encountered a rough surface like scales.  I immediately looked down and could see that they really were beautiful sky blue scales.  There was a deeper blue dorsal mane along the body and on the head, golden horns.

“The Azure Dragon Seiryu.”

“I feel more comfortable in this form”

“Isn’t it risky if people see you like this?”

“Humans know we exist, some have already seen me flying through the sky so it wouldn't really be a surprise.”

" I see."

“Hold on, Mylène.”

The pace picked up and I felt the wind hit my face hard.  I closed my eyes, preferring to hide my face against Seiryu's back.

We flew like this for many minutes before landing in a clearing near a small village.  This village, after investigations, turned out to be the one where Claude had come to pick up Sofiane and Gabrielle.

I walked for a while, Seiryu advising me to change my appearance so as not to attract attention.  Thanks to Seiryu, I had changed the color of my hair, from red to black and my eyes had become green like my mother's.

Seiryu, becoming Azef again, had kept his appearance.  No one would recognize him, especially in this remote area, so he was sure to go incognito.

“Okay, let’s go.”
