The next morning, Sakura woke up extra early to get the daily Konoha Times. She then took a warm shower and dressed in her normal clothes. When she was ready for breakfast, her parents have already woken up.

Sakura quickly greeted them and sat down on the breakfast table. She took the literature page and gave the rest to her father. This action had already become a daily routine for the Haruno family. Not noticing her parents' curious glance, Sakura quickly found her way to the name 'Nakamura Tenzoi' and began savoring the new poem. As she had thought, today's poem was a continuation of yesterday's Daughter of Evil. This one, however, was titled Servant of Evil.

O my Queen, you have me as your faithful servant alone
We were twins, torn apart when our fates should have shone
O my Queen, to shield thee from danger's deadly call
I will sin, I will kill, I will sacrifice my all

"I knew it! That servant who looks like the evil girl is foreshadowing this! He's her twin!" Sakura exclaimed. However, another question rose in her mind. From these four lines, she could tell that this servant loves his twin sister very much. So would he really allow her to be punished and killed? Would he do nothing to stop it?

Fourteen years ago we were both born into this hell
Praised and blessed by the people and the church's bell
Being in our family we must play by the rules
Even if we look the same, I am destined as your tool

They can swear you their enemy, or curse all they want
They can brandish their swords, and be on the hunt
Never fear, never cry, I will always be near
Let not your smile, my sun, turn into icy tears

"What a faithful servant... Such an evil girl doesn't deserve his loyalty..."

O my Queen, you have me as your faithful servant alone
We were twins, torn apart when our fates should have shone
O my Queen, to shield thee from danger's deadly call
I will sin, I will kill, I will sacrifice my all

While running errands in a peaceful town nearby
I ran into a pleasant lady with emerald green eyes
Smiling with her face so fair, singing with her voice so bright
I was captivated then, knowing love at first sight

Sakura suddenly stopped, her hands began to shake. "Please don't tell me..."

But this love will remain locked deep inside
For the Queen gave orders, "The girl must die"
I will answer her wishes, her mind I will ease
So why, my Lord, do my tears fail to cease?

"Oh god no... He fell in love with the Green girl... So why! Why does he kill her!? Is the Queen that important to him!? Does his loyalty to the Queen matter more than his love towards the Green girl!?" Sakura didn't even notice her mother's placing her toast in front of her because her eyes were glued onto the words on the page. These magical words seemed to have blocked her from reacting to anything else that was happening.

To be ordered to kill your love, and to know that it's impossible to avoid it... Sakura doesn't even know how to describe what the boy must be feeling at the moment. Agony, pain, suffer... None of these words was powerful enough to be on par with the servant's feeling.

O my Queen, you have me as your faithful servant alone
We are twins, like two seeds in the soils of madness sown
"O my Queen, your dessert for today is brioche"
And you smiled, and you smiled, innocent without a flaw
