After talking with the Archduke, Michelle was relieved to hear that as long as he was still in the Land of Exile, the Soul Seeking Pendants wouldn't be able to harm him as the power restriction between realms suppressed his power just below the Spirit rank, so she went to her room to rest, but she was wondering where Cold Flame went. He didn't tell her where he was going when he was leaving.
At first, she didn't worry too much, but when Cold Flame didn't return for a few days, she got a bit concerned. Even Nyxaroth, Snow and Mare had returned from the middle realm, but Cold Flame was still nowhere to be seen.
Michelle wanted to use the contract to pull him back to her, but he sent her a message that he was fine and that she shouldn't worry about him, so she didn't pull him back, but she was still worried.
