Surrounded by survivors, villagers, village councilors, soldiers and royal squads; the head of village council bestows gifts to Raume, the young prince of Jelfyr. Among the gifts is a fine wine made from wheat and grapes. Those gifts have been received by Shaira and she turns over them to her subordinates. "We will see you off, prince of Jelfyr," has said by the head of village councils. "Thank you for your kind visit, specially your help in time to time. We hope your generosity shall continue. Your actions prove you are fitting in the throne."
"I must do what must be done," has replied by Raume, the young prince. "It's only natural that we support each other. Without the people support, the kingdom will crumble. I just did my purpose. Well then, if you would allow. We may depart now." Accompanied by the soldiers and royal squads, the prince begins to walk, to travel back to the kingdom.

—End of Intro.
Despite of being wounded, Jaino rises and walks to his office. There outside the door, few people are in the lounge. The swordsman standing near the door salutes at Jaino, and he does back. He walks inside the office and finds clients accommodated by his men on each different table.
He goes to where Taila, speaking to a soldier of Renze. And where a bearded swordsman is standing while leaning in the wall.
"Do not force yourself," has said by Taila to Jaino.
"Don't mind. So, who needs me?"
"Right, it's me," has responded by the bearded swordsman.
Taila follows up, "Speak to him."
"Speak," has demanded by Jaino to the bearded swordsman. "I had already told you. Do what's necessary. Just don't step beyond our boundary. The underworld is beyond our realm. But if that would affect me personally, it doesn't matter to me."
"You are right... It'll affect to you, yourself and the surroundings around you," has responded by the bearded swordsman. "We have recovered alive victims from the mansion owned by a nobleman. They are to be used for feast."
"Seriously, imbys was supposed to be exterminated."
Imbys, they are norims cultured cannibalism and insane in nature. They do what other norims do for their safety and also to lure their prey.
"I'm afraid. The criminal is not belong to the race. He is currently member in the council of congress. He is currently guarded by his paid security. I supposed this may cause disturbance in public. It may affect your clan."
"That will never happen. What they're doing is completely wrong. I stay as the third for the meantime but that doesn't mean you will halt because it'll affect me."
"That's what I'm afraid of..."
"Then do your job. Taila is behind us. My limitation is the underworld."
"Uhm, you're not doing your job," has said by Taila to Jaino. "You're making me in-charge. By the way, the prince has requested protection for Judith. One of our men studies your history and keeps Judith under surveillance. Aren't you stepping beyond our boundary? Notwithstanding that woman, Criselia, is so mysterious. I wonder what you're afraid with her." Her words strike Jaino with a bash.
"Mind if I asked?" has asked by Jaino. "Is someone still need me for?"
The bearded swordsman replies, "Not much. The others can manage themselves. Your approval is enough. We're lucky to have you for the meantime."
