While Althea and Lady Cynthia continued having a good time with each others and Lady Nefeli already left to go somewhere.
At last, it was just the two of them again, Lady Cynthia keeps looking at Althea to make sure she doesn't wander around and going too far away from her.
" Dear, would you like to go buy some of that..." Lady Cynthia says and she point at a lady selling cotton candies.
" Yeah! I want to try and eat some of it! " Althea says with a smile.
" Alright, we shall buy one for you." Lady Cynthia says while smiling back at Althea.
While Lady Cynthia was busy talking to the woman in front of her, Althea on the other hand she saw a white furry running into an alley.
Little Althea then looked at Lady Cynthia before she thought of following the white furry friend who she just saw running.
Which is something you probably shouldn't do in reality...

Meanwhile, Archduke Willard is having a private meeting with the knights and the nobles that he trusted from the Khisfire Kingdom.
" We're currently keeping an eye on them, one of their people was caught by Red. He was about to runaway after getting caught by him, but he failed. " ---
" Well, it seems like the Quandaz are people we shouldn't look down on, what do you think about this you imperial highness? " ---
All of them then looked at Archduke Willard.
" We should keep tracking them, find out how many people they have and where's their hideout, before we plan to make a move at them. " Archduke Willard
" Also make sure that they wouldn't notice that we are tailing them, one mistake can cause a huge damage. " Archduke Willard says and everyone nodded their head.
" I've heard about the Quandaz before, they are an illegal merchants, they travel everywhere..." ---
" Well, it seems like they were able to smuggled themselves in this land and out of all places they could go, it had to be where we are all are present," ---
" The Quandaz are criminals that runs quite a sizeable organization and just like what his imperial highness mentioned, we should keep an eye on them and make sure they don't know about our plans, if they find it out, it'll be hard to capture all of them." ---
" But we should also consider the fact that we may not be able to capture all of them in one go, one or more of them could possibly be able to escape from us. " ---
" That is why we will have to make a thorough plan on this, to make sure none of them will be able to escape alive. " Archduke Willard says and they all agreed.
" And while interrogating the captured criminal, Red sent a new information to me," ---
" But didn't the criminal died? " ---
" The criminal died after telling the truth, it was caused by a dark magic. " ---
" According to the criminal, the Quandaz has changed their strategy and with that, they were able to established an operation by infiltrating other nations." ---
" Goodness... " ---
" In fact, some of them have already infiltrated the Lazourel Empire," Archduke Willard says
" But wouldn't it be too hard to infiltrate the Lazourel Empire since this is a land that is heavily guarded? There's even the all mighty dragon that resides at the top of a mountain, it was said that the dragon belongs to the royal family of this land. " ---
Archduke Willard then looked at the noble red haired woman and just kept quiet about the truth of the mighty dragon... Keilbuss, who is staying in his residence, friend's with his only daughter.
" Ahem. Anyway, it seems like there are also nobles who participated in buying illegal goods from those criminals." Archduke Willard says
" And those illegal goods that those criminals sells to the nobles... " Archduke Willard
" It includes selling demonic creatures who are still young, to be sold at a high price to the nobles as a pet. " Archduke Willard
" Oh my goodness, demonic creatures? Those criminals were able to capture demonic creatures?! " ---
" Not just one, hundreds of demonic creatures who are still young were all captured. " ---
" Those criminals has raided other regions to capture slaves to sell to the nobles. " Archduke Willard
" That also means...The Quandaz has also captured a lot of beast people. " Archduke Willard
" This is truly a serious matter, how come no one has ever thought of capturing these evil criminals?! " ---
" There are also other nations who are keeping an on the Quandaz but so far, they were never able to capture any of them, those criminals aren't really normal merchants." ---
" Also, this is a classified information, only a few people knows," ---
" We will have to find out where's their hideout and how many people who also participated in this, we will have to capture all of them. " Archduke Willard
" I'll gather all of my best people to also keep an eye on them," ---
" Also there will be an auction at the black market tonight, the Quandaz will be there to sell goods to the nobles, in fact they have a private event for specific nobles who are invited." ---
" His imperial highness, will be there to go undercover, " ---
Everyone then nodded their head and they reviewed their plan to capture all of the Quandaz members.
While on the other hand...

" Althea? " Lady Cynthia looked around but couldn't see where is the little lady have gone to,
" Althea?! Dear??? " Lady Cynthia says as she panicked because she couldn't see Althea anywhere.
" Althea! Dear, where are you???! " Lady Cynthia calls while the other people on the street only looked at her and ignored her, they didn't even care to ask if she needed any help.
And so, if you have a little niece and you're in a street where there are a lot of people walking and passing by, put a leash on your niece so that they wouldn't go anywhere far from you.
And for Althea, don't worry she'll be fine.
Somewhere.
