By the time Iliana and Stailor returned to the Agency, Juricia had already fell asleep, on the couch.

This earned her a sigh from Iliana and a chuckle from Stailor. "She could've taken a room.. Why sleep so uncomfortably on the sofa?" Iliana commented, worried about Juricia after seeing all the papers tattered around her.

"Well, she looks cute, doesn't she?" Stailor said reflexively, hiding his face after realisation of what he just said hit him.

"Inspector Stailor.. If you wish to hide your relationship with our Advocate here.. Please do a better job at holding your tongue, because that was reflexive." Iliana said calmly, walking away. As she was about to go up the stairs, she stopped looking over her shoulders towards Stailor.

"If there is nothing, then you two may leave. If Juricia does wake up then tell her to wait for a few minutes, I'll be back." Iliana said calmly, then going up the stairs to her room while smiling. She clearly knew what she was doing when leaving them alone.

Stailor, understanding Iliana's intent, sighed and sat down on the sofa, lightly tapping Juricia's cheeks while speaking in a soft voice. "Hey.. Ju, Wake up."

"I heard Iliana already.. We have nothing else to do here." Juricia said with a smile, stretching her back before sitting back up. "Dear.. Your face is red. Don't blush over an expression as simple as stretching." Juricia said while collecting the pages from the table and putting them in order.

Then Iliana came downstairs, looking at Juricia with a smile. "You're leaving?" She asked calmly, with an underlying expression of interest.

"We have everything we need. The Blood sample was collected so Inspector Stailor will take that.. We'll meet the day after tomorrow, before the court hearing." Juricia said calmly before standing up, waving a goodbye to Iliana and leaving the Agency Office with Stailor following her close behind.

Once they were gone, Iliana sighed. Her lips slowly curled up into a smile and a single tear dropped from her eyes, which she quickly wiped down.

The day is arriving soon. I believe I'll deliver justice to all of you. Just you wait.. Iliana thought to herself, as she walked over to the door, locking it before going up the stairs into the kitchen. She was hungry, but then she was reminded that Abel wasn't there and she can't eat her own cooking.

"Uhmm.. I'll order. I'd rather rather not hear an earful from Abel." Iliana said, as she unlocks her phone and orders takeout from a nearby restaurant.

After ordering food, she put down her phone and looked at the Kitchen as a shiver ran down her spine. The last time she and Eluya were trying cook, they wasted a lot of Ingredients.

"Hey, that's not how you cook." Iliana shouted to Eluya, who wanted to put wet potatoes in the hot oil.

The tale has been illicitly lifted; should you spot it on Amazon, report the violation.

Though eventually, Eluya did put the potatoes into the Oil, which caused the oil to splatter on the floor. Hopefully, neither of them were burnt but they did earn an hour worth of lecture and 3 weeks of Basic Kitchen training under her watch.

"I'm not gonna cook.." Iliana said to herself before walking away and going into her room above.

Meanwhile, in the Prison of Aslahan,

"Sir, Please believe me. We aren't hiding anything from you. Why would we? We need justice from that Unknown Proxy's attacks." Zorick said in a rushed tone, as he was cornered by Alpha of the Corps.

"You are hiding something, Major General Zorick. Who's Proxy are we hunting?" Alpha spoke while glaring at Zorick. His tone was stern and he glared into Zorick's eyes, scaring him.

"We.. we don't know, Sir. We only found traces of a Proxy.. We don't know which one." Zorick spoke in a trembling tone. It's clear he didn't expect the omission of what Proxy there was, to bite him back. But it's too late now, he can't go back on his words or the consequences can be bad.

"Hmm.. Don't worry, my partner Beta is in Aslahan too. She'll get the things you omitted. Afterall, why else would the Emperor send us and give us permission to destroy the town of Luminae if needs be." Alpha spoke calmly before turning his back on Zorick and looking out the window into the Northern Forests.

He looked into Northern Forests for as far as it would allow him to. He could feel the gazes of Vampires that were looking at him from a few kilometres in, but they weren't making any move.

But Vampires weren't the only thing present in Northern Forests. There were traces of Elder Gods.

"Was there a Rift Tear nearby, Major General?" Alpha said calmly, as he continued to stare at the horizon.

Zorick was taken aback by the sudden question. The Rift Tear that opened up not too long ago, was a secret he hadn't reported yet and this was one of the things they lost when the supposed-Proxy and High Priest came and closed it while releasing the prisoner that was on its way to Aslahan.

Then Beta entered Zorick's Office with Colonel Mary close behind her. "Alpha.. There is a High Priest of Justifia and probably the Proxy of Justifia." Beta spoke calmly.

"Justifia, you say.. Well, they are Supreme Judge Gerald's Senior.. He told us about them a few times." Alpha said calmly before sighing. His expression turned from anger to calmness.

"We are going to stop investigating this case and report our findings to the Supreme Judge." Alpha declared calmly with Beta nodding, acknowledging the decision.

Zorick was shocked at the sudden decision of Alpha and Beta, his gaze turned to Mary, who shook her head as if saying, 'There was nothing I could do.'

"B-but.. The Supreme Judge is in the Capital City of Melobranch, right?" Zorick said, unaware of the decision Omega took last night.

"Don't be surprised, Major General. Omega told us to pass down a message to The Supreme Judge. 'Dissolve the Jury of Luminae'. And considering that you are hiding details, I guess we'll have an Audit for Aslahan too.. Pray that whatever you are hiding isn't enough to get you killed.. You know how Judge Gerald operate." Alpha said with a hint of admiration towards Gerald and disgust towards Zorick. He wished that he had enough Authority to do something of substance, but he was Emperor's Chosen Warrior, not Judge.

"Beta.. We are leaving. Do you have all the evidence we need on you?" Alpha asked Beta.

"Yes. I have a copy of everything they hid from us. Even the Doctor's statement.."

"We are leaving then." Alpha said as he turned towards the door and walked out. But before leaving, he stopped and turned to look at Zorick. "I hope those atrocities in the basements come to light so you can suffer for them."

Hearing Alpha's words laced with hatred, Zorick shivered. Yet he was unable to do anything. The plans he had made were now backfiring on him. And there was nothing he could do but wait for his turn.. oR cOulD hE?
