"I'm sorry, but you have to die tonight," the woman said. Instead of panicking or feeling threatened, Klaus raised one of his eyebrows. "Wait a minute. So, you're an assassin? And I'm your target? Hm, but how can an assassin not recognize their target?" The woman twisted her face in confusion. "You should be concerned about yourself." "Ha ha ha, no…

"Performing a sudden attack against a woman. What a coward," she said. Blood was dripping from her white mask. "You hide your face behind the mask. Are you too afraid to show your ugly face?" Suddenly, her hair floated in the air. The masked woman emitted a dark red aura, akin to blood. "I will kill you." Edward grinned. "So, it's true that your face is ugly." The woman in the white mask spread her hands, and a strange aura emanated from her. Then, loud noises were heard from every corner of the…

"Arrrggghhh!" The white-masked woman screamed in pain as her hand twisted suddenly. Meanwhile, Joanna narrowly escaped death, falling to the floor and coughing as she tried to catch her breath. Enraged, the woman in the white-masked woman turned around only to find Olivia standing with one hand half-twisted. It turned out Olivia had used to save Joanna.

The joyful music suddenly stopped. The mansion sank into complete darkness, leaving the guests in confusion. "Oh no, what happened?" hissed Sylvia. "Relax, there seems to be a problem with the electricity. The servants will take care of it soon," Klaus said in a calm voice, trying to give Sylvia comfort.
