     Lilliane was missing. The initial thought they had was that their benefactor would be disappointed. However, it was quite the opposite. He simply laughed and claimed that it can't be helped.

     It was a bit confusing, Ruki thought. He still had so much to learn about the Demon world. It seems like the girl entrusted to them was a resident of this realm after all.

     "She's in good hands, that I am sure of. By now, she must be aware of her responsibility as the queen of the carnival."

     He didn't know how to explain it to his brothers either. Especially since Kou has been making a huge deal about her missing, and Yuma's attitude wasn't helping either.

     It was none of his concern, he convinced himself.

     Her head was being tilted, mouth opened, some form of liquid entering her throat. Every single drop of blood from the vial was transported inside her.

     Opening her eyes, she felt warm.

     Memories started flashing in her mind; what happened in her life the years before; the hardships she endured to be the person she was today.

     That's right.

     She was the second princess of the Royal Family of the Monster Kingdom. The Phoenix Clan.

     She wasn't human.

     How can she forget such a trivial thing?

     "How long was I out?" She asked. Elizabeth had brought her another cup of tea, which she accepted gratefully.

     "Quite longer than expected Hime-chan."

     "I see. It seems like my mother's idea to name me the queen of this carnival. Seriously. What a troublesome task I've been given."

     Elizabeth stared at her with wide eyes. Did she plan on joining the final event after all? It was too risky. But knowing Lilliane, nothing can make her change her mind.

    First, she needed to meet up with the Mukamis. Disappearing like that is rude, even for her. She doubt that they would be worried; probably only troubled that their Livestock went missing.

     Ha. Livestock. What a funny word.

     For most of her life, she was anything but that. She stood on top of anything else, a name given to her the day she was born. It wasn't something she wished to have. The status she had to bear with as she grew up.

     "If you're planning to show up in Eden, I have the perfect dress for you."

     "Oh, Eli. You always liked to treat me like a dress up doll."

     She recognized it at the one displayed on the corner; the dress she was staring at. Now that she got a closer look at it...It was gorgeous.

     A dress befitting a Princess.

     "A corset huh?"

     "I've trained your body long enough for it to be able to handle this thing Hime-chan." She said giving her a mischievious smile.

     "It's been a while since I've worn a corset. Please go easy on me."

     "Hmm...No promises."

•••

     It was definitely her. That woman in the dress shop. She may be able to change her hair color, but not her face. No matter how many times she denies it.
