Ananda Disappeared

Inside his study, Sunders picked up Angor's "Monument Loop" and examined it.

He soon found a mark engraved at the bottom of the item's base, which showed a lion trapped in thorny vines. Almost immediately, Sunders knew what this meant.

"Oh ho. The boy is steadily becoming a professional."

Instead of testing it out right away, he placed it at one corner of his desk where the demon falcon statue was located. The two items of different qualities easily showed Angor's growth in skills.

"Keep going, Angor. You need it." He smiled in content.

The door to the study was knocked open, and Flora barged inside in rage. "Damn it, Little Red! Why would you give Angor those roses every time you see him? You ruined my plan!"

"Did Angor trouble you?" Sunders raised an eyebrow.

"No. He's not the problem here." Flora was glaring at Sunders openly, so her meaning was obvious.

"I asked you to take the door so that you learn how to stick to the rules."
