Day Seventy-Six…

When Spade mentioned Black Rose's name, Alexander finally recognized the woman standing next to Hanabi. He failed to notice her presence since his attention was focused on Hanabi.

After that, he cast a glance at Spade, giving him a questioning gaze. 'What is the meaning of this?'

Spade just smiled at him sheepishly, feeling apologetic. He deliberately kept this intentional meet-up from Alexander.

"I'll explain to you later. Just smile, Alex. Don't scare them away," Spade softly mumbled, begging Alexander to behave and act friendly.

Meanwhile, Hanabi and Cherry exchanged meaningful glances with one another. Both of them had the same thought in mind. 'Wait? Is he the Dragon Lord?' The two ladies shifted their gaze back to Alexander who still had an indifferent look on his face.
