"Are you going to trust Emperor Maidas, Your Excellency?" My personal assistant asked me this right after my long meeting with the Emperor, to which I responded with prudence, as always. "I only trust that this anti-magical child exists as to his reasons. You and I know that Maidas would never do something so altruistic."
"I see, my lord, so what will you do?" My assistant hit another good question right after my statement, which made me think. What will I do? Should I order the arrest of this Annabel kid, or should I try to bring them to my side? There must be a reason Maidas wants them so badly, and I doubt it is to do us all a favor.
That man would never do something so noble for the good of the world, and there's no way. Therefore, there must be other motives for him to be so desperate to get the kid before I do. Is he thinking the same thing I am right now? Will I become an even greater threat if I get my hands on them?

From the images Maidas showed me, it seems like this Vampire demoiselle possesses a power beyond human comprehension, a power so scary it would make the entire world tremble. A power capable of deflecting all types of magic, no matter the strength of her opponent's magic attacks, will not damage her; she has such exceptional talent.
"I know what I will do now. Order the troops to apprehend every single teenage girl with red hair in the kingdom!" My words seem to make even my assistant nervous as he brings up a fair point. "But my lord! There are thousands of red-haired girls throughout the nation! How are we supposed to know if we got the right one?"
"The one we will be looking for has Orange hair and red eyes. The red hair might be easy to spot, but the eyes are what give her away. I've never seen anyone with red eyes; not even the Emperor with his red crystal power has red eyes. Stop every girl with red hair and inspect their eyes; only one has red eyes."
"Understood, my lord! It shall be done as you wish!"
