Hours later, Reve and the twins could be seen laughing on one of their topics. 

"Yes. I was just as flabbergasted as you were. I had referenced every note on historical swords only for me to realize that this sword was just a normal iron sword with a fancy design," told Ciaran. 

Reve giggled, "And did you still get the commission?"

"Of course, I had to. A week of blindly searching for answers couldn't go in vain. In fact, I petition for a higher commission seeing as he wasted my time," said Ciaran.

He was talking about one of his weirdest missions. This was the topic that the trio was conversing on.

"Yeah, I remember back then he asked me to assist him with his mission. Thankfully, I declined or I would have been left stunned to death," commented Lyra.

They engaged in another round of laugh. 

Suddenly, Reve looked sideways and noticed the scarcity of nobles in the hall. Somehow, they had all dispersed somewhere. 

Understanding it was time, Reve stood up and lightly bowed, "You have made this banquet edged in my memory. Unfortunately, it is time for me to depart. I look forward to continuing this conversation."

A sad gleam coursed through the twins' faces as he said that. Lyra spoke, "I understand. I reckon it is about time for me and my brother to take our leave. Godspeed, Reve."

Reve gave his farewell and exited the scene with Lithia in his arms, carried like a princess. 

He remembered something, "Oh damnation, I forgot Karmin. On second thought, we should leave without her…..hehehe, that will get rid of her annoying arse."

Sadly, Reve knew he could not do that. 

He hissed and went into the corridor of the hall. At the sides of the corridor were rooms. Coming from the rooms were sounds of intense moans that Reve absolutely didn't want to hear, but he couldn't exactly block them out, could he?

Suddenly, the corridor seemed to be an undesirable location for him akin the fabled river of death. Yet, Reve had to bravely cross it!

He began opening the doors, one by one, checking inside to see if he could spot the face of Karmin. 

"Ehh, it's you, care to join us?" squealed one of the nobles when they saw Reve. 

Reve looked at the female dish they licked from head-to-toe and mercilessly slammed the door, "No, thank you."

He went on to the other doors.

"Hey there, Reve of Azea. You know, we could really use–"

"Nope."

"Hi, handsome."

"Nope."

"Ahhh–Incoming, flower,"

"Hmm…..you can go on."

In less than thirty minutes, he had ransacked half of the doors. He was starting to become weary as he did all that while varying Lithia. 

Quickly, he opened the next door. 

There, he watched as a group of males tried undressing a woman but she kept beating their hands. 

"Damn, what is wrong with her?" cursed one of them.

"We have been at this for hours. Fuck, this is useless," cursed another. 

They continued trying to undress the drunk women to no avail. 

Reve closed the door after watching a bit. 

His brain clicked in a few seconds away from the door. He dashed back and pushed it open, yelling, "Stop."

The drunk woman the noblemen were battling with was Karmin. It seemed that her drunk self was even more troublesome than her sober self. 

"Hey, go away," shouted one of the nobles. 

"Go, fuck yourself. We are more than enough for her."

Listening to the rain of curses, Reve sighed as he vowed to never attend a banquet with Lithia and Karmin. Nevertheless, he walked closer to the nobles with his mouth kept mum.

All the nobles saw was a flash of light before their entire world descended into a state of chaos. They mysteriously fell to their knees, holding their stomachs. 

After Reve was done with his quick work, he attempted to lift Karmin but she slapped his hand away. 

"Damn!" shouted Reve. 

With evil intentions, he tapped her nape, sending her to sleep. 

Then, Reve focused on the few nobles that were still awake. He did not know why, but seeing their faces aggravated him. 

Reve raised his leg and beat them till they lost their memory and collapsed. Finally, he felt lighter. 

"Hah, what do I do now?"

He had to signal Morgan, Lithia's attendant, to drive the carriage to the entrance of the manor. 

"Hmm….I could do that."

Reve placed Lithia on the bed and screamed in her face, "Wake up!"

The only thing that did was make the lady flip around on the bed. No matter what, her sleep wouldn't be compromised.

Receiving an epiphany, Reve moved closer to her ear and sang melodiously, "Lithia, wake up."

It was a soft tactic, but it would work for sensitive people. 

Slowly, Lithia's features became defined as her eyes drowsed open, albeit it didn't seem like she was fully awake.

She mumbled, "Who is it?"

"It's me, Reve."

"Oh, Reve. Did we sleep together today?"

"..No."

"That's a shame. I already made plans."

"..."

This was what Reve was talking about. The soft tactic he employed was only capable of bringing out the semi-consciousness of the sleeping person. They would think they were still in dreams and might reveal secrets they wouldn't normally reveal. 

Reve did not want to take advantage of the young lady. He got straight to the point, "Lithia, can you contact Morgan?"

"Oh, yes, Reve. I will do anything for you."

"..."

Her speech slurred again, "Morgan? Who is Morgan?"

"Your personal attendant."

"I have a personal attendant?"

"Yes, you do," sighed Reve. 

It was hard dealing with a drunk person. When he gets back home, he would demand compensation from Lithia and Karmin for the hell they put him through.

"Oh, Morgan. Old Morgan. Okay."

After saying that, her body jolted. Reve reckoned that was her way of sending the signal. 

He whispered into her ear, "Thank you. You can sleep now."

"Huh? No, I want to sleep with you."

"....."
