The black car stopped at its destination, while nearby cars also stayed a little far away from the car.
"We have reached the destination, princess," the guard says politely.
"Hmm." Alexia nodded.
The guard walked out of the car first and opened the door for the princess.
Alexia walked out of the car elegantly.
While the guard stays a little far away from her but keeps his eyes on the surroundings.
Alexia walks to the VIP gate of the concert.
"You can enter, miss."
While the guard let her in without checking her VIP ticket.
The guards at the concert are not dumb people, as they can see the guards and the luxurious car of the girl.
Alexia sees at least twenty to fifty seats on the VIP.
There were a few empty seats near the concert.
While taking a right turn and walking to the empty seat.
She looks around to see if she can see her sister.
"There she is." Alexia can see her sister dressed beautifully.
Her sister looks beautiful among everyone.
"Why is she so near the concert?"
Her sister's seat was very near the stage of the concert, while her seat was very far among the VIP seats.
"Did the twenty minutes difference makes a big change?"
Suddenly, the light goes off at the concert.
As a light came in the middle of the stage.
A person with a white mask covering his whole face except his eyes and nose
The beautiful purple eyes are looking attractive.
But Alexia is indifferent to the purple eyes.
With an indifferent expression, she looks at her sister.
There was a delighted smile on her face.
"Is that real?"
She can't believe her sister fall for him.
The dance and singing were not very interesting to her.
But then, strangely, the person on stage let his hand stay near her sister.
"Can I?" The person asks her sister.
"Umm," her sister nods.
'No'
Alexia is screaming inwardly, hoping that her sister doesn't put her hand on his.
But unfortunately, her sister put her hand on his.
There was a pleasant smile on Kylia's face.
"Nooo!!!"
Everyone looks at her for a while.
But Kylia didn't look behind her as she kept her hand on him.
She keeps her eyes on his face.
The person performing the concert looks at Alexia before he looks at Kylia.
As he took Kylia to the stage.
He puts his hand on her waist while dancing around the stage.
Then Alexia walked out of the concert.
"Go back to the mansion," Alexia says with an irritated tone.
....
At the end of the concert.
"Was it the correct thing to do?" Javier asks Ren.
"Hmm ?"
"Was holding the girl's hand a good decision? You even put your hands on her waist? Don't you think you did too much?"
Javier looks at Ren with an expression as if saying, It was the wrong thing to do.
"She was my regular fan who pays for VIP tickets every day."
Ren says as he takes out the white mask from his face.
"Give me some oil," Ren says to his manager as his face feels sticky.
"Hmm, you might regret it one day."
"It was just holding her waist and dancing around the stage for a few minutes."
"What about your internet fans?"
"It's not a problem, as there will be some posts saying that he dances with his loyal fans."
"Will it work?" Javier asks, as he doubts that normal fans will take it easily.
"It depends on how you show the presentation." Ren just smiled with wisdom.
"You may regret it one day."
Javier says this because his gut feeling is correct about this matter.
.....
Meanwhile, in the white mansion
Alexia lay on the bed with an irritated expression, as she didn't believe her sister would do this.
She feels a kind of betrayal from her sister.
"You broke the promise," Alexia mumbles with a sad expression.
A sound of doors getting unlocked makes Alexia jolt out of bed.
As she sees her sister having some bags around her.
There were some packages around her.
It looks like she bought a lot of things today.
"Ohh, sister. Thank you for the money. I will return it later," Kylia says before leaving her on the second floor and entering her room.
There was a happy smile attached to Kylia's face.
...
In this way, at least one month passed.
Alexia used her authority to check the background of the person who was on stage.
There is a big difference in the face of the person.
"Hmm." Alexia smiles as she finds this interesting.
The person on whom she kept her eyes was a student from the Supreme Allstar Academy.
Ren is a decent student with good swordsmanship skills. But with no mana in his body.
It was not hard to get information about him.
But how did he change his face to that person?
She can't accept the fact that a person's face can change so much.
"He came out of the academy," a guard says, looking at the footage from the cameras.
"Hmm, keep your eyes on him," Alexis says as she is trying to find out how he can change his face.
"There is no information about the blue candies in his hand," said a guard who came with a few documents in his hand.
"How is he getting candy then? Alexis looks at the guard while reading the document about the candies.
"I don't know," the guard says with a stiff tone.
"Look for more about him."
A voice came from the side.
"He entered a mall."
"He changed his face and his outfits."
"He enters a cafe named Happy Cafe."
Alexia nodded while sitting at a table near a corner and reading a book.
"A girl came to meet him."
"She goes near the table, where he was sitting."
Alexia's eyebrows narrowed as she said," A girl?"
A chilly atmosphere filled the surroundings, which the guards could feel in their skin.
"Y-Yes"the guard nodded.
"What is the conversation between them?" Alexia says with her narrowed eyebrows as she looks at the camera.
"There is no camera in the table, as the table is locked."
Alexis face got hardened at the mention of a locked table.
"Find out what they are talking about!
"We can't," the guard says with a pale expression.
"It is not possible to find anything about the conversation at the locked table."
"Do something, then!"
"We can try to find the identity of the girl."
"Then find it! Why are you looking at my face for?"
"Y-Yes"the guard swiped the sweat from his head while taking a relief breath.
.....
in the middle of the day.
The guards of the cameras, keeping their eyes on Ren, say this to Alexia.
"He left the cafe and walked near the car of his party member."
"He goes back to the cafe after some conversation with his party member."
"Then he returns to his party member while sitting in the car."
"They reach a portal."
At the mention of the portal, Alexia looks at the guard.
"A Portal?"
"It is a portal filled with monsters, which some hunters hunt for money.
"I know about this. Did you take me as a person who doesn't know this?"
"S-sorry"
"Why is he near a portal?"
"We don't know."
"Hmm." Alexia nodded, before thinking for a while.
He has enough money; then why does he go to the portal to hunt monsters?
Is he short of money?
It' shouldn't be.
Then the guard says more about Ren.
"He is with his party members."
"There are some problems with the portal."
"What??" Alexia said this in a loud voice.
"The internet got disconnected from the camera of the portal."
The guard says he is trying to connect the internet to the camera near the portal.
"There are some issues with the portal."
"The portal has been broken."
"W-What?" Alexia's eyes widen as the current situation is happening too fast for her to understand.
"Send the guards to look for him quickly, as fast as you can," she says with a loud voice.
.....
Around two hours later.
"The issue of the portal has been resolved with the help of the Ninth Sword."
The guard says this whole thing while looking a little breathless.
"What about him?"
"There was no presence of him near the portal."
"No one has seen him coming or going out of that place," the guard says, gulping down his saliva.
It means either Ren gets eaten by the monsters or he dies horribly while in the fight with the monsters.
"His....body?" Alexia speaks with a quiet, lifeless body.
"Sorry," the guard says with a pale tone.
They didn't find his body or anything near the portal; he hadn't even left the place.
It means he is no more.
Alexia's thoughts got chaotic as the situation was too unrealistic for her to believe.
How ?
How did this happen?
It was all fine this month.
But today's incident
"How....?"
Alexia can't believe this situation.
She could see his face every day.
She kept her eyes on Ren the whole month.
She was interested in Ren's identity.
But now that doesn't matter.
Because he is already gone.
Her face looks lifeless, as if she has lost something precious.
Before Alexia's thoughts got more chaotic,
A guard started running, came near them, and stood near another guard.
"We have found him at his concert."
'Him' only means Ren.
For a while, Alexia didn't believe what she heard.
But still clinging to that little hope, even if it is a fake hope.
"Where...?"
"We have found him in the concert," the guard repeated the words he spoke.
As if the vitality came back to her face as she said this.
"At....concert?"
"Yes"
"Hmmm," she said, nodding for a while.
.....
