Aba and Sansa were peacefully asleep sharing the only bedroom in the warehouse. Both had cried themselves to the bed as hearing Sansa's cries expressing her pain Aba who tried to console her ended up tearing up too.

With Anna and Ann gone, the warehouse was under the constant watch of Agatha Lavender. With the boy's death, she had become extra strict with her work.

Though Agatha did not spend a lot of time with the boy, the times they shared were all memorable as she hasn't been so open to anyone since Demigod Windsor. No matter what others say Agatha considered that boy her friend. And the failure to save his life had hit her hard.

Agatha has been repaying the entire battle over and over in her mind thinking of things she could have done differently that would bring a different result. Yes, she blamed herself for the boy's death.

As someone who has seen her share of fights and war, Agatha knew better than to indulge in such fantasies but for some reason, she could not bring herself to stop thinking about those thoughts. As she was riddled with guilt.

This unresolved guilt of not being able to protect the boy had made Agatha focus more intently on protecting Aba. This was not about redeeming her failure to protect the boy by protecting Aba, rather she was worried she wasn't capable of protecting Aba.

Carrying all this guilt Agatha failed to see that Anna and Ann were awfully quiet about the boy's death. Not only did they compromise on their word about killing Aba if something were to happen to the boy but did not even bother her about the details of the mission and what went wrong. It was as if they did not blame her for the boy's death. If only Agatha were to look past her guilt then she would find that Anna and Ann were acting very suspiciously.

Wallowing in guilt, Agatha suddenly felt the presence of four demigods and a semi-demigod in the airspace. Agatha's first instinct was to hide her and the warehouse's presence using item cards given to her by the demigod Windsor. With this card, unless one physically spots them they will not be able to tell them apart from the rest of the city.

When she probed to check what the demigods were up to she made a shocking discovery, she felt the presence of the boy. Yes, the boy they all thought was dead. He was alive.

Impossible, Agatha instantly denied any possibility of the boy being alive as she had seen the slime drop his grimoire after its death. But then once she entertained the question of how the boy was still alive, she began to notice little things that she had never noticed before, from the suspicious circumstances surrounding the boy's death to the suspicious behavior of the southern emperor, it immediately became clear to Agatha that the boy had faked his death.

'That son of a gun,' Agatha thought as she forced every fiber of her being from rushing toward the boy, grabbing him by his collar, and asking him, 'How could you do this to me?'

While Agatha was cautiously spying in the direction of the demigods and the boy, she found some activity in the warehouse. So she immediately checked it out only to find the teenage Card apprentice from the adjacent warehouse making her way into their warehouse.

Suspicious, Agatha immediately arrived behind the teenager and asked, "What business do you have here?"

Spooked Corey turned to look at the voice behind her but was immediately frightened by Agatha's intimidating eyes and semi-demigod realm. But she still managed to speak, which did not help her case, "Who are you?"

"Answer me or I will kill you for trespassing on this property," Agatha warned Corey to not waste her breath and answer her or the consequence will be dire.

"I work here. Who are you and what are you doing in my big sister's warehouse?" Corey had her methods to track Susan and they were telling her that Susan was in the warehouse bedroom.

"I have been here for days now and never once seen you come to work here. Either you are a bad employee or you are lying," Agatha focused her intent on Corey not knowing how to handle her. If not for her having felt the presence of this girl I'm the adjacent warehouse since she came here, would not be so tolerant toward her.

"Um, Corey, what are you doing here?" Sansa who was sound asleep woke up hearing the commotion and came to check it. A drowsy-eyed Aba also tagged alone.

"Big sis, who is that little kid?" Seeing Susan come out of the bedroom with a little kid in pajamas, Corey forgot the demigod in front of her and I enquired about the kid. But then she noticed dried tear stains on Susan's face and immediately asked, "Were you crying? Who made you cry? Was it that asshole, Wyatt?"

Aba's dropping eyes opened wide being called little kid by Corey but hearing her call Wyatt an asshole she immediately looked at Sasan only to find her rush into Corey's embrace crying, "Corey, he died, Wyatt's dead."

"Big sis, are you trying to trick us? It's not gonna work because I can feel his presence near his parent's grave. But I wonder what the demigods are doing next to him?" Park's fire incarnation walked out of Corey's body and said. Surprising Susan, Aba, and Agatha.

Surprise of seeing a sentient fire incarnation apart, Agatha was shocked to hear that she could feel the presence of the boy from her in the warehouse. As for Aba, she looked at Corey and Park unkindly for having been called a little kid and said, "Girl, have you gone Crazy?"

"..." Susan also looked at Park in confusion, thankfully Agatha finally stepped in to explain, "She is speaking the truth, the boy is alive and in this city. It seems Wyatt faked his death in the sun blossom city and the Southern Emperor was somehow a part of it."

Coming out of initial shock, Susan immediately said, "I am going to see him."

"No, manager Susan, you can't. Boss has ordered me to take you to the central region asap. He said will be contacting you soon," ordering his subordinates to make the arrangements as per his master's orders Old Ben then visited Susan's house and then the warehouse to pick her up.

Agatha knew Old Ben was Wyatt's subordinate so she did not bother him as he entered the warehouse. But Corey and Park were not that happy about his arrival, "Who the fuck is your boss to make plans for big sis? Besides, did we not decide to go to the southern royal palace first?"

"Corey, honey, shut up. Captain Ben, is Wyatt alright?" Susan asked as she was still worried that her young boss might still be wounded.

"Boss is fine, please don't worry about him. But manager Susan, we have to leave the city and head to the central region immediately," Old Ben declared seriously.

"Fine, let's go," Sansa did not hesitate to follow Old Ben because, after last night's false scare, she had vowed to be the girl who gets the boy.

"What?" Susan's answer shocked Corey, Park, and Aba. As for Agatha, she wasn't close to Susan, and besides, she was more concerned about why the Boy asked his subordinates to leave the city immediately and head to the central. Did he have a falling out with the southern royal family? That doesn't seem to be the case. The boy did show a cautious approach toward the southern royal family, what was the boy up to?

"No way. You can't go to the central region just because a boy asked you to," Park yelled. Unlike Corey, she had a 'let's wait and watch' attitude towards Susan and the boy's relationship progression but Susan moving to another region on the whim of the boy was too big too soon.

"Park," Susan shouted and then shyly said, "This is my job, if it needs me to move to the central region then I will."

"I think you should go," Aba said. As someone who lent her shoulder to Susan to cry, Aba knew how much Susan cared for the boy.

"Who asked you, shorty," Corey and Park, both instantly snapped at Aba for supporting Susan's idea.

"That is it, I am going to kill you two," Aba pouched on Corey only to be stopped by Agatha and began to yell, "Let go of me Agatha I will kill these two today."

"Princess, calm down. Remember what you resolved," Agatha tried to calm Aba.

"Corey and Park, apologize to Aba. She is my friend. I will not stand by watching two friends insult my other friend," Sunan ordered Corey and Park to behave and apologize to Aba for their comments about her body build.

"Tsk" Corey and Park reluctantly apologized to Aba and then returned to convincing Sasan not to leave for the central region.

"Park, stop it, nothing you say will change my mind," saying that Susan left with old Ben.

After Colleen and Uri vanished in Colleen's domain, the atmosphere I'm the graveyard became tense.

Agent Lois glanced at Ann and provoked her saying, "Give up, you are not my match."

"I don't have to win, all I have to do is hold you back," Ann did not fall for Lois's obvious provocation because a defensive stance was a better fit for her task.

"So, I take it you are the smart southern emperor," Agent Lois said, seeing Ann not take the bait.

"Ladies," General Baylor addressed the two, and then turning to Backster he added, " and gentleman, how about we take this fight somewhere else? I would hate to disturb the dead in the cemetery and living in the city."

Agent Lois frowned but Ann and Backster readily agreed with General Baylor's suggestion because Sky blossom city and its citizens were their responsibility.

Being outvoted and also knowing that General Baylor would flip if anything were to happen to his friend Ellen's grave Lois had no choice but to follow the majority.
