As soon as Elaine left the room, Irethiel, her hands folded, looked at Ares with a blank expression and questioned, "...You enjoyed it very much, didn't you?"
Ares smirked at her comment. "If you're jealous, then I can give you a kiss as well," he responded mischievously.
"....."
Irethiel's face flushed, and she quickly averted her gaze. "A-And who said that I'm jealous?" she retorted, trying to hide her embarrassment.
Ares chuckled, deciding to stop teasing her. "Alright, let's focus on the task at hand," he said, passing the tablet screen to Irethiel.
Irethiel gave the tablet a puzzled glance, unsure of what Ares had in mind. But he continued, explaining their mission. "You and Meira will be heading to that dungeon to check on Mika, Helena, and Aegis," he instructed. "If you find them in trouble, do whatever you can to assist them, even if it means revealing your true identities to Mika. And if by chance they're safe and don't need your help, then simply observe from the sidelines."
"....."
Irethiel hesitantly took the tablet from his hands, her gaze still fixed on the screen.
"I will do as you wish, master!" Meira suddenly appeared from the shadows, kneeling before Ares.
'Mika, Helena, and Aegis are a formidable trio who can overcome any tribulation thrown at them,' Ares thought to himself. 'But the idea of sacrificing one another for a power-up is troubling. I hope they won't go to such lengths.'
"...I don't want to take any chances and see one of them sacrificing themselves to give a power-up to another, especially Aegis. I know she is capable of that," Ares muttered to himself.
"Don't worry, master. I will do everything I can to keep them alive," Meira spoke resolutely.
"....."
Ares smiled at her and gently patted her head. "I don't want you two to sacrifice yourselves either. Take care of yourselves," he replied, his gaze shifting to Irethiel.
Irethiel scoffed, her expression confident. "Hmph, do you really think I would sacrifice myself for someone else?" She retorted. "If things get dangerous, I'll simply fly away."
Ares nodded, understanding her perspective. "You don't have to worry about me, Master. I'll be using my clones, so I should be fine as well," Meira added, blushing slightly under Ares's touch.
"That's good to hear," Ares nodded, satisfied with their responses. "I would have liked to accompany you two, but I have an important conference to attend in a few days."
".....'
Irethiel's thoughts shifted, realizing the benefit of Ares not being present. '...It's for the best that he's not coming with us. If there's a chance to gain power by sacrificing someone, I'm certain he wouldn't hesitate to sacrifice us,' Irethiel thought to herself.
On the other hand, Meira's thoughts took a different turn. 'It's a myself to make him stronger,' she silently reflected.
"Alright, you two can leave right away," Ares said, standing up from shame that Master couldn't come with us. If there truly is an opportunity to gain power through sacrifice, I would willingly offer myself to make him stronger,' she silently reflected.
"Alright, you two can leave right away," Ares said, standing up from the bed. But before they could make their way, Ares's tone turned serious, and his aura shifted, causing Meira and Irethiel to take notice.
!?
"...Oh, there's one more thing I want to make clear before you go," Ares began, his voice firm. His eyes began to glow with intensity. "While I don't mind if my women have their differences in normal circumstances, but... when I assign you a task, I expect you to put aside your differences and work together as a team," Ares warned, his voice carrying a stern tone. "I don't want to see any bickering or distractions while you're on the mission I've given you. Is that Clear?"
Gulp—
Meira and Irethiel exchanged glances, their initial surprise giving way to a shared understanding of the seriousness of Ares's words. They both nodded in unison, ready to set aside their differences for the mission at hand.
"Y-Yes, Master. Your words are absolute," Meira replied, her voice slightly trembling with nerves. "I-I will treat Irethiel as my sister until we complete the mission you've given us."
Ares then turned his gaze towards Irethiel, who responded with determination in her eyes. "...Yes, I heard you loud and clear. There will be no conflicts between us while we are on this mission," she affirmed.
Ares's intense aura gradually subsided, and he nodded in approval. "Good. Now go, and may success be with you," he said, his voice returning to its usual warmth.
Swoosh—
Upon hearing his order, Meira swiftly vanished into the shadows, utilizing her stealth abilities. Meanwhile, Irethiel transformed into a crow and flew out of the open window, disappearing into the night sky her wings carrying her towards the Sacred Forest.

As Meira and Irethiel departed, Ares found himself alone in the room. His gaze drifted to the snake-coiled tattoo on his hand, a symbol of the hidden secrets and power of Escratia Kingdom.
"...This will come in quite handy," he muttered to himself, a mischievous grin playing on his lips. "I never thought there were such secrets hidden in this Kingdom."
With a swift motion, he called forth his status screen, the familiar ding signaling its appearance.
