"Sorry, my sister called me," Allen explained, their voice tinged with guilt. Azura turned to them, concern etched on her features. "Emma?" she asked, her tone gentle but probing.
Allen nodded, a sense of urgency creeping into their demeanor. "Yeah, I should go off now," he said, his words rushed.

Arcana furrowed their brow, a hint of confusion in his voice. "That fast? Don’t you want to talk to us first?"
Red_King stepped forward, a suggestion on his lips. "Or maybe take a mini tour of our headquarters?" he offered, his tone hopeful.

But Allen shook their head, a flicker of determination in their eyes. "Nah, thanks," he said, his voice resolute. "I need to go to her now. She looked a bit mad earlier."
Azura cringed sympathetically. "I can imagine it," she murmured, her voice soft with empathy.
With a final nod, Allen bid them farewell. "Okay, bye everyone," he said, his voice tinged with regret. And with that, he logged out, disappearing into the digital ether.
Allen opened his VR device and rose from his seat in the gaming room, the sensation of leaving the digital world behind was almost jarring. Next to him, Azura remained immersed in her virtual adventure, her focus unbroken as she continued her quest. Without a word, Allen slipped out of the room, his mind already preoccupied with thoughts of his sister, Emma.
Navigating the corridors of the mansion, Allen’s heart pounded with a mixture of anticipation and apprehension. He knew that Emma should have been waiting for him. As he looked at her, a servant who recognized him hurried over, a knowing look in his eyes.
"Looking for Miss Emma?" the servant asked, their tone sympathetic.
Allen nodded gratefully, his anxiety mounting with each passing second. "Yeah, is she in her room?" he inquired, his voice tinged with urgency.
The servant nodded in confirmation. "She’s been waiting for you," they replied, gesturing towards Emma’s room up the hall. "Good luck."
With a quick nod of thanks, Allen hurried to Emma’s door, his heart pounding in his chest. Taking a deep breath to steady his nerves, he knocked firmly, the sound echoing through the quiet hallway.
"Come in," came Emma’s voice from within, her tone laced with irritation.
Allen pushed the door open, his apprehension mounting as he stepped inside. Emma was seated at her study table, her expression one of annoyance as she glared at him from across the room. Behind her, the glow of her computer screen illuminated her features, casting shadows across the room. The screen showed that she was checking out the gaming forum.
"So, you finally decided to log out," Emma remarked, her voice dripping with sarcasm as she folded her arms across her chest.
Allen winced at the sharpness of her tone, his guilt weighing heavily on him. "Yeah, sorry about that," he replied, his words coming out in a rush. "I lost track of time."
Emma’s gaze softened slightly, though her frustration was still evident. " You should log out after completing the quest," she reminded him, her disappointment palpable.
"I know, and I’m sorry," Allen said, his voice tinged with regret. "I got caught up with Red_King and everyone then everything turned wild."
"Excuses, excuses," she sneered with a pout. Her annoyance was clear from the tone of her voice.
’Right,’ he thought. He knew it would turn like this. Allen took a deep breath and approached Emma. "That devil emperor is you, right?" he asked in curiosity. He knew the answer, he just wanted her clarification.
Emma’s eyes narrowed at the blunt accusation, her expression guarded as she met Allen’s gaze head-on. "Yes, of course, that’s me. Who else?" she replied curtly, her tone laced with irritation. "You should be grateful since I helped you to cover your identity," she added, her voice tinged with frustration.
Allen couldn’t help but grin at Emma’s sharp retort, his amusement was evident in the curve of his lips. "Thank you," he said sincerely, his appreciation genuine. "But I never thought you could convince the others to make you go with them though," he added, his tone teasing.
Emma’s response was a flat stare, her annoyance palpable as she regarded Allen with exasperation. "And I never thought you could land a hit on me even though you were in disguise," she said, her words laden with annoyance.
Allen held back his internal cringe, forcing a smile onto his face despite the prickling discomfort gnawing at him. ’Ah, she still has a grudge against me because of that,’ he thought ruefully, steeling himself for another round of Emma’s complaints.
"Don’t blame me for that," he said, his voice laced with feigned innocence as he plastered on a smile.
Emma’s response was swift and cutting, her irritation evident in the furrow of her brow and the set of her jaw. "You should hold back a bit," she complained, her tone sharp with reproach.
Allen couldn’t help but cringe inwardly at Emma’s words, his discomfort growing with each passing moment. "That should be my line," he retorted, his tone tinged with exasperation. "You’re the one who plays the devil emperor, not me," he added pointedly, hoping to deflect some of Emma’s ire away from himself.
"Tch!" Emma clicked her tongue in annoyance, her frustration palpable despite her attempts to mask it. She couldn’t deny the truth in Allen’s words, no matter how much she wanted to dismiss them. "So what does it feel like to join a common player group? Is it fun?" she asked, her curiosity getting the better of her.
Allen shook his head slowly, his expression grave as he recounted his recent experience. "It was a mess," he admitted, his voice heavy with regret. "If it wasn’t for Azura, I would have left as soon as possible," he confessed, his words tinged with a hint of gratitude.
Emma’s eyes widened in surprise at Allen’s confession. But then a smirk appeared on her face. "That suits you well after what happened to me," she sneered.
