After Helio expressed that he did not hate Dahlia, a cool, soft sensation touched his lips.
Dahlia had kissed him, not out of guilt but from the purest of emotions.
Through days and nights of companionship, Dahlia developed feelings for Helio long ago.
Dahlia then stood up with her cheeks flushed, unable to look at Helio before her.
Helio seemed not to react much, just staring blankly as if still processing what happened.
When he finally came to his senses and looked at her again, she appeared to be waiting for an answer.
"Dahlia."
Her reddened face quickly turned to look at the boy.
"Y-Yes?"
"I... I like you too."

It was already evening when Nash set out for the farm.
There, he encountered the other members of the Universal Top Seven, and of course, Sterling also bumped into Nash.
They both said almost simultaneously, "Why are you everywhere?!"
Seeing their attitudes, Mallory could not help but ask curiously, "Terry, who's this?"
Sterling explained, "This is Master Nash Calcraft. We've solved quite a few crises together before. I didn't expect to meet you here as well, Nash."
Nash smiled.
"Well, can't be helped. It seems we're destined to keep running into each other, dear nephew!"
Then, Mallory continued, "Next is this." She pulled out a map of the building.
There was one spot marked with a red dot.
"This is where Puelo is being held," Mallory explained.
Everyone looked at the map as Mallory continued, "I discovered this while undercover. Puelo doesn't seem to be held with Helio and the others but in a mysterious room on the 80th floor.
"I sensed Puelo's presence using my blades. Plus, I've checked every floor, but there's no sign of Helio and Dahlia—"
"Um..." Nash interrupted again.
Sterling said impatiently, "What is it now, Master Nash?"
Nash said expressionlessly, "I thought Fabian told you, but apparently not. Helio and Dahlia have already returned to Universal Group."
