Only after Shade had disappeared from sight did Siris smile and ask her friend:
"I saw that Luvia, Galina, and the others were all at home. It must be lively over there tonight. Why didn't you go back with Shade?"
"I didn't take part in the operation, so I won't be attending the celebration 'gathering.'"
The blonde female opera singer then asked as well:
"Then Siris, why didn't you stay?"
The equally beautiful blonde girl sighed and looked at the holy emblem of the forgotten old man on the wall:
"Isn't it because I haven't found the right opportunity yet? I want to find the most suitable chance, one that will make him unable to forget me for the rest of his life."
"I don't think Shade would forget you now, either."
After returning home, Shade did not join any gathering. After carrying Little Mia up from the basement to the 2nd Floor, he saw everyone gathered around Tifa and asked:
"What are you doing?"
Galina answered:
"You told Luvia and the others just now that you were separated from Tifa for a while in the middle. Little Mia can confirm that you're fine, but whether Tifa is truly fine still needs to be checked."
"But she has the Fire Seal on her, and my signature too. There's definitely no problem."
Shade wanted to defend her, but Luvia had already reached out and pulled him over:
"Safety comes first. Besides, didn't we learn tonight that the House of False Men can place part of a Doppelganger onto a human? Come again and examine her carefully. After all, you care about Tifa very much too, don't you?"
Shade was pushed in front of the maid. After meeting her eyes, he placed his hand on her forehead:
"Let me see. No problem."
