"Master Knight, may problema ba?" Megumi asked as she approached King Von who is looking outside the window with a glass of wine in his hand.
King Von smiled and turned around to face Megumi. "Just seeing you makes all my problems disappear," he said and drank his glass of wine, bottoms-up. "Didn't I tell you to call me Von when no one's around?"
"Eh... Nahihiya ako e. Tsaka baka may makarinig sa 'tin," sagot naman ni Megumi habang nakayuko at pinagdidikit ang dulo ng mga sapatos niya at nasa likod niya ang mga kamay niya.
Von and Megumi had been secretly dating for the past two years when Von was crowned as the new king of the Arentsvelt kingdom, which is also the week after Von had recovered from his injury. They both know that Megumi will be dead if someone finds out that she is dating their king. It's against the rules of the anarchy.
"Wala ba talaga akong magagawa para mabago ang walang kwentang rule na 'yan? Hindi ko ba pwedeng baguhin?" He asked as he cupped her cheeks and let his forehead rest on hers. "Gustong-gusto na kitang ipakilala sa lahat."
"If only it was that easy," she said and Von was about to kiss her when they heard footsteps coming and he immediately walked away from Megumi. Dumating na ang mga angels dahil ipinatawag sila ng kinikilala nilang hari na si Von.
"Master Knight," tawag ni Rose sa kanilang master but she immediately stopped when she saw Megumi in the room. "Oh, Megumi. Nauna ka na pala. Kanina ka pa?"
"Oo, ang bagal niyo kasi."
Rose hissed with Megumi's answer and she just sat on one of the chairs beside the long table. Von waited for them to settle down before he started the meeting.
"Salamat sa pagpunta. Ipinatawag ko kayong lahat dahil may gusto akong ipagawa sa inyo," panimula ni Von.
"What is it, Master?" Yanna asked.
"I want you to find the key of immortality."
"Pero Master Knight, medyo mahirap 'yan. Sa tagal na namin dito sa kingdom, ni minsan ay hindi pa namin nasisilayan ang key of immortality. Ni hindi nga namin alam kung anong itsura nito." –Sunshine
"Si Lord Lucian at si Lady Alexis lang ang nakakaalam kung nasaan ang key of immortality." –Georgea
"Wala na ba'ng ibang nakakaalam bukod sa kanila?"
"May isa pa, Master Knight," Megumi said which made the other angels look at her with an annoyed look.
"Sino?"
"Si Zoe. Alam niya ang tungkol sa susi na 'yon."
"If that's the case, we'll be needing her. Then find her and find out what she knows about the key."
"Mahirap po 'yan, Master. Si Zoe ang pinakamakapangyarihan sa amin. Madali lang para sa kanya ang malaman ang pakay namin." –Tanashiri
"Gawin niyo ang lahat."
"Sounds hard but we'll try. Anything else, Master?" Winter asked.
"Gusto kong hanapin niyo si Ezekiel Roswell at ang mga tauhan niya."
"What are you up to, Master Knight? Revenge?" Tanong naman ni Katarina na mukhang mas excited pang pumatay kesa kay Von.
"Hindi ko pa alam. Kahit na muntik na akong mamatay nang dahil sa kanila, ayoko pa ring manakit ng ibang tao," paawang sagot ni Von.
"You're a good man, Master. Hindi dapat nila ginawa yun sa 'yo. Don't worry. We'll seek revenge for you. Kami na ang bahala."
"Megumi, slow down. Wag ka'ng padalos-dalos ng desisyon. And besides, kahit anong sabihin mo, si Master Knight pa rin ang masusunod," alma ni Rose na ikinakunot ng noo ni Jam.
