Lycus followed the familiar scent, which was leading towards the window. Without further ado, he quickly opened it.
"Hey," his Master's first Servant called as he leaned on the wall beside the window. He smirked at him when their eyes met, "Long time no see."
"You should have come earlier. You know how our Master misses you."
"Well… I attempted not to come back, but there was something that caught my attention. I had to return immediately."
Seeing the Vampire Servant's serious expression, he asked, "What happened?"

"Stealing is evil!" Lycus exclaimed, "Do you want to taint the holy Servants' reputation?"
