"Talk"
'Thought'

"So the one that commissioned the job lives here?"

Nero and Bianca stood before a random ordinary door that could be seen in many other homes, nothing stood out to them, which made him more doubtful on what they are doing

"Mhm, it says it here in the mission details."

Bianca, who was wearing her mask again, was reading through the files carefully and making sure nothing was misinformed or if she overlooked anything, despite her excited and childish actions before, she was clearly taking this job very seriously, which honestly made it hard for him to say she was wrong or anything like that, especially since he knew so little of what was happening.

"I see…"

Nero decided to say nothing for now and let her work, which she then knocked on the door and waited for someone to answer

"By the way, what's the name of the person we're meeting?"

"Jeanne."

"Wait what?"

Before Nero could realize what Bianca said, the door suddenly opened and revealed a very attractive, tall, teacher like woman, with white hair, yellow shirt with red jacket and pants, and cute glasses, the beauty in question was none other than Jeanne, the person that the Masked Imp mentioned, and said mentioned woman couldn't help but hum as she looked at the two young ones before her with careful curiosity and interest

"What a unexpected visit from the son of Belladonna and the daughter of the Xiao Long, plus a Sammael Hellhound, definitely an odd bunch to be in front of my door."

What Jeanne said definitely surprised him, not expecting her to say his true name, though at the same time, he kind of expected her to know something, despite being a trusting teacher who helps out her family, specifically helping out Circe with her magic, he definitely saw her as a mysterious know it all person who works in the shadow

'Hm, I wonder if she has a different life outside of Fortuna…'

Nero now couldn't help but be more interested in what this woman does outside of his home, instead of wondering why she seems to know a lot about him, though his thoughts were quickly interrupted by said lady speaking to them again

"So, I'm guessing you're not here to learn some 'Special Lessons', am I wrong?~"

Jeanne gave them a teasing smirk, which made the devil arm lad blush lightly in slight embarrassment and annoyance, though Eva Xiao Long was too young to get the joke and simply showed her a piece of paper

"Were you the one who submitted this mission to us?"

Bianca tries her finest to speak to her client with such professionalism, not beating around the bushes, to which the person she was talking to took the paper and looked it over a bit

"Ah, I see, please come inside and I'll explain everything that I know."

Seeing as the child was taking this seriously, Jeanne decided to respond the same way, letting the three inside of her home, she took a moment to look around for a bit before closing the door and locking it

"You know, when I made my request, I expected to meet the infamous Son of Sparda and his teammates, not his daughter and nephew."

Jeanne then turned around and looked at them, who made themselves comfortable on the couch in the living room, the nephew leaned forward as he took this seriously while the daughter looked more lax and tried to be cool, but was still obviously paying attention

"My Father, Mother and Aunties were busy, so I decided to take over for them, will that be a problem?"

Bianca crossed one of her legs over the other as she spoke with authority and bravado, which made her partner raise an eyebrow, all the while she was petting and rubbing the head of Sammy, who simply sat on the floor in front of his owner
