Meanwhile, in a small room, where the floor and wallpaper were adorned with all sorts of cute characters, and lace curtains that seemed as if they belonged in a princess’ room hung beautifully from the ceiling... Below the very lacy curtains, a girl was playing house with several adorable dolls.

“Pssssh, boom! Teddy Bear said, ‘Mwahaha, anyone who challenges me gets eaten! I’m the king of this mountain!’ Teddy Bear was very scary, so the shepherds and puppies were really, really scared of Teddy Bear…” the girl cried out as she picked up a teddy bear that was as big as her torso. She then swung the teddy bear’s fist, destroying a toy block castle. She continued, “The people on the mountain became scared too, because Teddy Bear told them, ‘Give me something tasty right now.’ Then…”

“My lady! My lady, my lady!”

The girl’s doll play quickly came to an end as she was suddenly interrupted by an uninvited guest. With a thud, the door to her room slammed open, and Sebastian, the girl’s butler, hurriedly ran inside.

“Ah, what now?! I was in the middle of my…!” the girl began.

“Now isn’t the time to care about that kind of thing! It’s an emergency!” Sebastian interrupted her.

“…That kind of thing?” the girl suddenly asked.

“They showed up at the end…!” Sebastian shouted.

“…What I’m doing is just stuff?!” the girl continued.

Sebastian was about to continue, but he realized that his tongue had slipped after hearing the girl’s voice turn cold. Up until a moment before, she had been a very adorable and lovely girl, but as her gaze turned chilly, the air around her became wicked and gloomy.

Whoosh, whoosh,...
