Harley worked hard at the library of the Magic Academy, researching about what could have happened to Lylia. "Red eyes...it must be some sort of Abyssal magic," he murmured. Just then, Barats strolled up to him.

Harley tensed. "What do you want with me? Can't you see I'm busy?" he growled, readying his wand for an attack. Barats seemed surprised.

"I wanted to check if you were okay! I saw Lylia out there just now..." he said. Then, he whispered conspiratorially, "I know you like her."

Harley's brows furrowed. Somehow, everybody seemed to know that! He crossed his arms. "I'm fine. Now please leave me alone. I need to work."

Barats stepped back. "Fine. I would offer my help to rescue Lylia, but you obviously don't want me here. I want my victim back too. But I'll give you a tip. She's being controlled by that vampire woman with white hair." Then, he left the library, his dinosaur trailing behind.

"A vampire with white hair..." Harley mused. "Carmilla has white hair, but I have a feeling it's not her." Something struck Harley and he gasped, realising who it was. The flying woman leading the demons! It had to be her! Now, Harley just had to figure out who exactly she was.
