"Where are Alex and Yulia?" Kaito asks Meliora, who is sitting next to him.
Meliora nods seriously. "Sir, I believe Alex and Yulia are in the main reception room. Yulia is still trying to calm him down after his encounter with Cute."
"All right, let's go. I want to see how they're doing."
When Kaito enters the reception room, where there are only a couple of iron sofas with red padding and an empty bookcase, he sees Yulia standing next to Alex, who is head down, sitting on one of the sofas, with wide eyes, rapid breathing and trembling hands.
"Kaito, you're back!" Yulia says with a sigh of relief, and a drop of nervousness, because they have no idea what to do to support Alex. "He's nervous. It seems that the experience in the basement has left him in shock."
Kaito approaches and puts a comforting hand on Alex's shoulder, and he looks at Kaito with a look of mixed relief and anxiety.
