After the Fight

Lucas just looked at Ruby for a few seconds as she disconnected her arms from Lucas's.

"I don't see your fierce companion here." Ruby suddenly remarked.

Lucas shook his head. "She's not here. And by the way, you still didn't answer my question. Are you part of the Xiao family, or the five great families, Lady Ruby?"

Ruby shook her head as she scoffed over Lucas's speculation. It wasn't that insulting, but for Lucas, it was confusing just how she scoffed at it as if it was a joke.

"I am not part of that crappy circle. However, I have power, and a prominent one as well."

Lucas just snickered. "Yeah, with a tailor shop that disappears out of nowhere."

Ruby gave Lucas a sweet smile as she faced the city below. She breathed out, then started talking once more.

"I am powerful, but I am tired of it. That's why now I am only an owner of a tailor shop, Lucas." Ruby said, making Lucas snicker again.
