“Who… who are you?” Her face turned pale, “Identify yourself!”

“But your… your hai…”

I set Arnold wondering by himself and went up to Dior’s roomAs I suspected, the door was not lockedDior Merlin was behind her dresser,her pretty face through a mirror, “I mentioned before I left that I will reveal my true identity to you in tiuessedThat blatant s activity, you did that way purposely for the City Hall to discover, am I correct?”
“Uh-huh, and I did that purposely for you keeping me here all by myself!” She toyed with a coe a to cover your identityI researched and put all the evidence together, guess what I found”

“Ist all the families of nobilities, the ones who had a son close to your age are numberedIf I add your style to the criteria, the answer is extremely obvious” A hint of proud was added to Dior Merlin’s tone, “And you forgot the most obvious one: only Cohen Kheda, viceroy of Dark City has 3 wives, a pair of sisters and an elf”

Dior Merlin darkened her face, which made me flinch about what she was about to say
“Where is er, petty thief?”
“What…thief?” I winched and I did not feel good about it, “What are you talking about? What dagger?”
“You look surprisedWere you always treating me like I’er!” Dior Merlin’s sharp vision hurt ave it away the moment you entered the door”
“I… I don’t quite understand what you were referring” I assumed my face showed traces of panic but I held on to my lie
“Just stop it, Viceroy Cohen, since the , your voice reminded me of a certain man with this weird Divine City accent… your black hair, he more” She approached the bed I sat on and huer written on her face, I read erShe ained upper hand on the duel between usWell, this rerand plot to trick her into ht today’s confrontation for myself
Dior Merlin was certainly happy for herselfI grery faceMy wives together were no less than the collective minds of the entire Asmodian Alliance
“Okay, okay! Dior, ht boot then put the handle on her tiny hands, “Let’s call it a tie”
“A tie? You lied toon the bed, one elbow against ht? Coo!”
“I suppose I should do the sa to see youGosh, this fragile soul of mine can only take so much”
“Humph, I’ll let you slip this tier to her belt, “Remember it won’t end this easy next tientle tothe war, but as that about earlier?” She gazed at me fiercely, “How could you ask such a question earlier? I cannot take the insultI need an answer, explain or I’ll never forgive you”
“Calht, with a s our relationshi+p when sohere in this cityI can’t make sure there were no spies here in the castle and neither could I put you in any sort of danger for saying nothing in front ofelse to say between a viceroy and a businesswoman? Why do you have to poke ly attractive and I was temptedI can’t help it, hey, that’s your faultIn order to not fall into an aard silence during the inspection period, I’ve prepared a huge aotten the moment I saw your deadly beautiful disposition”
“So you azed at me with her playful eyes
“Absolutely”
“I doubt itHuet away this easilyViceroy Cohen, the P/A War has ended and how many days since you were back to Dark City? If what you said were true, you won’t wait a day to not see me”
“I wished I could”
“Petty thief, that was your faultEven your friend Raven didn’t remind youBy the ho is this Raven, exactly?” Dior pinched loomy as she mentioned Fischer, so I took her in my arms and whispered, “Before I left here, he was Prince Fischer; and now, he is King Fischer,”
“Wait, you meant the one who Fischer?! King Fischer Su Fischer is currently in Dark City and Luhr usAre we in such a hostile moment?”

Dior Merlin shook her head
“I knew you didn’t have time forthat timeYou didn’t lie on this, I’m truly thankful” She laid her head onto oodable to be with you when you were in danger”
I could do nothing but to hold her tightly
“And I don’t want to stay here any longerWhatever it takes, I’m not!” The next reeSafety aside, I want you to meet my families” I nodded
“It’s all your fault!” She raised a pinky fist but it never hit me, “You have 3 wives at home, how could I face them?”
“That shouldn’t be a problem because you’ve worked one of them out alreadyFlynn did notice your unusual activities very early onHave you received the ingenious gift they sent you?”
“I did and I responded the favor”
“Couldn’t be betterOnce this war is over, you’ll see yourself in Dark City”
