At the same time, in one corner of the Human Realm, in a luxurious mansion filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, a young lady who was enjoying tea suddenly paused her movements and looked up.
"Lady?"
Beside her, a girl dressed in a maid uniform, resembling the young lady almost identically, stood ready with a teapot, slightly puzzled as she spoke.
The young lady did not immediately address her twin-like maid, instead keeping her gaze fixed outside the window, as if she were observing something.
After a moment, the young lady gently put down the teacup in her hand and, with an inexplicable tone, spoke to her maid.
"It seems that the 'test subject' who once took my power has appeared."
This simple sentence caused the maid, poised to pour tea, to suddenly freeze.
For she knew very well what this statement meant.
Thus, the maid remained silent for a long time before finally speaking.
"Are you sure?"
The maid asked only this one question.
