"Look there", the old man is telling with the middle-aged man from inside of Nepenthes' house while showing Jas and the remaining through the window, who has been standing in front of their house. 

"New faces want to enter inside, out of the blue", says the middle-aged man by shaking his head horizontally.  

"Your estimation is totally wrong", the old woman enters behind them. "Have you noticed the stone on that young lady's hand?"

They take a quick glance at Jas' bracelet. "As...Aster?" The old man widens his eyes.

"Spitting image", the old woman says. They both have looked puzzled. "Like mother like daughter", She hints at them.

"You...You mean...Princess...", while the old man is about to split out the name, "Jasmine, Aster's child", the old man confirms by completing his sentence.

"It's a great opportunity for us. Let's help them to reach the main chamber of Nepenthes", the old man suggests. "But how?"

"Stepping inside means stepping in hot water", says the middle-aged man. 

"Yeah! Water", she provides them an idea. 

"You mean, illusions water?" the old man asks. It's highly impossible to enter that way. They may hurt themselves due to the non-stop illusions."

"But, the only short cut it is", that middle-aged man agrees.

"I'll help in visualizing the house to them", she says and disappears.

"Since the princess is with bluestone like mine, earlier, I can communicate with her brain directly." The middle-aged assures.

"Great, then I'll guide them once after they enter in", that old-man winds up the matter.

Like that, with help of them, Jas and the remaining have stepped in and met them. Now, a fight with Crystals, a monster, keeper for all these fairy souls.

"Jasmine? Rose? Watch out at your back", Lily and Violet alert them. That monster gives them a call with a loud roar.

"What are you watching? Get the ball rolling", Violet says and attacks the monster with her magical whip along with Lily.

"It's showtime", Jas and Rose exchange their smirk and start the action with a nod at each other. While Rose attacks with magical rings, where Jas attacks with her sword.

But, Max watching the fight behind a pillar with tense. When the monster about to fall due to Violet spreads the whip around its legs, "Bend Lily", Rose climbs on her back and sprinkles the magical sand with a jump over the monster. It seals the monster only for a little time. Later it breaks the seal with a roar and pushes and throws four of them with its arms.

"What's this? It didn't work at all?" Rose is in confusion.

"Looks like it's stronger than us", Violet says.
