"Finding that stone was way too easy," Maverick said

"Yeah, since we know all the things that'll occur in the future, life may be easier for us," I said

"How did both of you know that this stone was there all along?" Asmodeus asked

"Cause we're smart, duh," Maverick said

Asmodeus glared at him

"Hey, Camelia, I found something interesting," Damian said

"Hey Erebus, why are you floating like that? don't you supposed to stay inside her necklace?" Maverick said

"Shut up you brat! Camelia, do you want to see it?"

"Sure, show me then"

Suddenly, A small black fog came out from Damian. Inside of it, there's the Duke and a man was talking.

"Wow, it's like a projector," MAverick said

"More like a mini cinema, did you bring popcorns?" I said

"No, it's a pity though"

We both look disappointed

"Shush, both of you, there's the Duke," Asmodeus said

This morning, the Crimson's Manor

"She left?" the Duke said

"She did my lord, also I found something interesting," a man said

That man is the Duke's secretary, his name is Elliot. He served the Crimson family throughout the years. Also, he's very loyal. But he had quite a personality, that's why Camelia tried her best to avoid this person.

"What is it?" the Duke asked him

"I heard that the young miss was a successful businesswoman, and she always bring a man with her. Even on this day, she had a meeting with some unknown people. They looked like nobles, but it seems that the young miss favored them much," Elliot said

"A businesswoman you said? what did she sell?"

"Based on the rumors, she sold gemstones and invested in some jewelry stores. Also, those gemstones are from the Crimson's family mine"

"W-what did you say? the Crimsons mine? how did she know it was hers?"

"I have no idea, my lord. But I think we should be more aware of her plans rather than this"

"You're right, even I'm her father, I don't know what kind of person she is. She's right, I failed. I didn't raise her well"

Another man entered the room, he's VIscount Berkeley. Green eyes and blond eyes, those are the characteristics of a Berkeley.

"Did your daughter say that? that's not like her, did she changed recently?" the Viscount said

"I don't even know how she was like, how did you know her?"

"I'm her teacher anyway, she's a naive girl without any bravery to talk back. I took a liking to her because she's an obedient person, why the sudden change? did you perhaps do something to her?"

"No, she did change these days. I don't know the reason why, but she's more like a wild rose," Elliot said

"Oh yeah, you should know that your daughter is going to the academy right?" The Viscount asked

The Duke and Elliot were surprised

"Don't tell me that you didn't know?" he said

"Which academy and what major?" the Duke asked

"The Kylan Academy, the best academy for nobles and royals"

"Is she crazy? she'll take the test tomorrow right?"

"Yeah, I'm pretty sure she's going to take the swordsmanship major"

The Duke sighed, he really raised a wild rose in his family. But now, he will only watch her from afar since she doesn't want to be involved with this family anymore. 

"Then, I can't do anything, but you can still inform me about her movements," the Duke said to the Viscount

"Why so sudden? don't you usually get mad?" the Viscount asked

"Do you remember what happened that year?"

"The day when you throw her sword away?"

"Yeah, I regret it. As a father, I was supposed to support her no matter what decision she makes. But that year, I only think about status and my selfishness"

"I'm relieved that you said that. But you know? Lennox's princes are going to the same academy as your daughter. I hope they won't make a ruckus with prince Apollo and your daughter though"

"What do you mean?"

"A triangle love story, I had a feeling that your daughter may suffer a bit because of it"

"What makes you think so?"

"I don't know, it's just my instinct"

"Did his majesty know about this?"

"No, so better keep your daughter's identity safe, and I'm sure that she's going to do the same"

Present time, the Camelia's carriage

"That's what happened, so I'm going back"," Damian said while returning to my necklace

"Yeah, take care Damian," I said

"AHAHAHAHHAHA XD, I FEEL LIKE I'M WATCHING A REALITY SHOW," Maverick laughed hard

"PFFT, What a shitty play," I said while laughing

"But, the Viscount was right, you should keep your identity," Asmodeus said

"It may be hard to hide my status, but I can hide my appearance"

"Just change your hair to your original color," Maverick said

"What? isn't her original hair was silver?"

"MAVERICK, WHAT THE HELL?" I said

Asmodeus shouldn't be suspicious of us. He is our ally, if he found out that we're hiding things from him, he'll leave us. No, that can't happen.

"I've been suspicious with both of you, how did you know each other well?" Asmodeus asked

It's better to say the truth

"We know each other from our past life," I said

"How did you know?"

"We've just realized it recently though," Maverick said

"Oh so that what happened"

"Are you disappointed?" I asked

"No, why would I?"

"Don't worry, we'll still be friends" I said with a genuine smile

Asmodeus flinched, and he blushed.

"Aren't you supposed to change your appearance?" Maverick asked

"Oh yeah, Let me start now. Damian, help me a bit," I said

Damian's spirit then flew out of my necklace. 

"Sure, I'll change your appearance," Damian said

Damian used his magic to change my appearance. My hair changed into black, and my eyes looked brighter.

"That was fast," I said

"I'm an expert anyway," Damian said

"Thank you," I said

"So then, I'm going back," he said and he flew back into my necklace
