She gave Justin to one of the guards and asked him to be taken to one of his two grandmother's.

"Bye mummy," he kept waving and shouting loudly as he left.

"Mmm, bye baby." she waved back and shouted just as loudly. Both mother and son ignored the first library rule which was maintain silence at all times. The head librarian was a stern looking woman that Scarlet hired because she adhered to the rules in every situation no matter who the person was. Originally, she was supposed to be the head of all castle maids recommended by her mother but Scarlet diverted her to the library.

The woman, who insisted on being called madam Olga was reserved and she liked keeping to herself so library work suited her perfectly. Olga made it no secret that she was frowning at Scarlet for violating the most important rule of the library.

"Sorry madam Olga," Scarlet ducked quickly out of the library and found a spot outside to answer the call. Esong must have really wanted to speak to her so desperately if he was this persistent.

She smiled, took one deep breath and answered the video hologram call. "Hey," she said which was followed up by a quick "You are not my husband."

"I am his assistant, Dez Mino." the other party replied.

"Okay," Scarlet nodded, "Where is my husband Mr. Dez Mino?"

"He is sleeping currently which is a good thing because he has not had any good sleep ever since winter arrived. I apologize for using his terminal to contact you, I did not mean to violate your privacy or his. I wanted to discuss the new internal heat medicine which you sent the mecha warriors association. Did you personally make it?"

"Yes," she replied, She could not say that another grim reaper that you cannot meet or talk to made the pills. "Is there a problem with the pills?"

"Seriously, you guys don't even rest in the virtual world," a woman that was sitting next to Scarlet pushed the reporter to the side. "No press is allowed here, beat it or I will report you for violation of player's privacy."

The reporter unhappily backed away, but not before taking a picture of both women against their will.

"Stupid paparazzo." the woman muttered. "They are not even real reporters. Are you okay?" she looked at Scarlet with that question.

"I am okay, thank you for your help." she replied. "I did not know that reporters or paparazzi could work in this world. It's a virtual world after all."

The woman laughed and raised one eyebrow which was pierced, three piercings to be exact. "You don't spend much time in the virtual world, do you? Come to think of it, I have never seen you here on the benches. I have heard about you of course, the female fighter in weird black armor that has a picture of a fierce dog, you are the hound."

"Or you just heard the paparazzo call me hound and now you know who I am." Scarlet countered with a smile. "But you would be correct on that. What's your name?"

"Alice, the sweetest." she replied.

Scarlet was a bit surprised because this was a name from the virtual roll, number two in division one as a matter of fact. "You are the one with a picture of her back instead of her face."

"Yeah," Alice laughed casually, "Why expose my pretty face when my skills are all in my hands and feet?" she folded her fists and wriggled her feet.

"Why that name, Alice, the sweetest?" Scarlet was curious about that. She had been curious ever since she first heard the name.

"Because, my pain is sweet sweet pleasure." she winked. "But I guess you will never know because after number ten tonight you will be challenging number one. Which means, you and I will not be getting a chance to meet in the division one fights, right?"
