In another location, the Foxia empire. Maria and the others girls arrived ahead of schedule. Kuina who was eager to meet Alex sent someone to lead the way, they took many shortcuts and for this reason they arrived faster than expected.
Kuina who was expecting Alex ended up disappointed.
Because of it was already evening when they arrived they couldn't meet the empress. Gracier and Luna went to sleep, Incursio disappeared somewhere while Maria got a call from her master Freya, leaving only Sakuya and Kuina alone.
After heaving a sigh Kuina said to Sakuya.
''Let's go to the garden.''
Sakuya nodded before following her and soon they arrived at the garden where they sat around a table and a maid appeared and served them teas.
While enjoying her tea, none of them spoke, it was only after drinking half of the cup that Kuina asked a question which she was wanted to ask.
''Where is Alex and that bitch Saeko?"
