Meet Up

"Where is Niti?" Rudy asked Lilim.

"I don't think she is coming. Neither is Vriti."

"Because of the sun?"

Lilim moved her gaze to Rias and uttered, "Have Rias told Niti that she knows everything?"

"I have," Rias nodded. "She plays an important role in my revenge. But as soon as I told her, she ran away and has been avoiding me since."

"She is probably worried that you might take revenge on her, too."

"Oh, I do. Part of me wanted to do something, but she is… Niti and Vriti are like my mother and aunt. I can't hurt them."

"And Jane is your blood-related sister."

Rudy spotted Maria and Ruby near Reina's office and said, "Where have they been?"

"They went shopping. Even yesterday, they bought so many things."

"Money at its expense…"

"Miss Maria told me they are buying stuff for their rooms in the castle," Lilim informed.

"No doubt. I have never been in Ruby's room, but Maria's room was… well, if I have to say it… it was the most girly room I have ever seen in my life."
