"Yes," Johann replied. "Aren't you curious as well? About his choice."
"Hmph, what a futile effort! The answer is obvious to all. He will surely prioritize me."
Johann's lips curled into a thin smile.
"We shall see. This is a situation Percival has never faced before. His power has never been so thoroughly threatened until now. For now, you will be our guest. And you will remain under our surveillance until we meet your father."
"Take her away," under Johann's signal, the guards seized her arms and Sarika was escorted to the room prepared for her.

After being thrown inside, the door behind her shut.
She immediately tested the door handle but found it was securely locked.
Her attention then turned to the window.
