Ever since the last misunderstanding, Monte and Rocky had drifted apart. Although Monte didn't leave early while in the Eternal City, he didn't continue following Rocky in the days that followed. The two of them hardly spoke since then.
And just after returning to Thunderhawk City, Monte went to find Liliya to tell her he was leaving.
It was evident that the previous incident had indeed left Monte deeply disappointed with Rocky. He even abandoned the original idea of observing for a while in Thunderhawk City, planning to leave as soon as they returned.
Although Liliya knew Monte misunderstood the weapon, she couldn't explain it to him and had to seek out Rocky.
"You go bring Monte to the City Lord's Mansion, straight to the lab to meet me."
"The lab... Rocky, are you going to?"
Hearing Rocky's words made Liliya slightly stunned, as she was the only one who understood what he meant.
"Go ahead, I have my own plans."
