As for the servants in the room, they don't even understand what these two people are talking about.

They do not understand what pandemonium and Republic is. 

They don't understand what source of power or what prompted such discussion. But they do not care. It is only reasonable for them to not understand 

And along the conversation Azief and Katarina spoke in English. 

Since they have been living here for months and their comprehension is good they quickly have learned the language of the people of this world 

and then when they realize they talk about something that is beyond the thoughts of the servants in the room, Azief and Katarina turns to speak in English. 

After all, Azief could not speak Russian. 

There was never any need before because the system converts all language into words he could understand. 

So, even if he spoke in Malay, and the other one spoke in Russian, Azief could understand it even when he was speaking another language and it is the same situation for the other person

English is at least a language that they both could speak so along the way they changed their language.

The servants also know their limit. 

For things they don't understand, they just try not to listen. As long as the lord and the lady enjoy their breakfast sets, they are happy. 

On the other hand, on the dining table, looking at each other from opposite side of each other, the debate about the Grand Path is still continuing. 

In talking about these things, Katarina suddenly forgot her shyness. Azief simply shakes his head

'I used to think that I was right. That only be removing the mundane world from my eyes and my heart that I could rise higher. But now, after all that I have experienced, after all I have seen, truth is…. I am not sure. But if there is one thing I know….it is that being too attached to the Republic is not good. I fear it would one day become your weakness'

Katarina was silent for a while thinking about it carefully

Sighing he then said

'Katarina…...we could not save everyone. '

Katarina answer simply

'Well, I could very well damn try'

Azief laughed. 

His laugh was so unexpected that the servants on standby looking at each other with puzzled expression, thinking what made the lord so happy that he laughs in the middle of eating. 

'A heart that never lose hope. That is a remarkable trait' Azief mutters and then looking back at his plate he once again eats the food with a smile on his face. 

Once again there is silence in the room and Katarina suddenly remember what happen last night again and her shyness returns and she once again stare down back at her plate

They have their breakfast like this and after finishing their breakfast they both got up. There is eight exit out of the dining hall. 

Since the palace is that big, and there is so many halls and residential area in the area and so many department, this palace is truly a palace that incorporated everything.

Katarina obviously wanted to avoid walking out the same exit as Azief. And Azief could see it.

Just because they debate about the Grand Path and ease a bit of awkwardness during breakfast did not mean that the awkwardness would just suddenly disappears.

Azief also knows that this is not good. 

He was never proactive before. 

And he did try to avoid it. 

And in doing so he felt like he reverted the way he was in the past. He felt a bit pathetic and he thinks he should explain it to her.

Maybe not now, when they just have finished breakfast and the awkwardness is still that strong. But he is done trying to avoid things.

He should face it. 

It is quite ironic when he thinks about it. 

He did not mind facing monster horde or fight some crazed alien from some ancient space race or dueling an invading warmongering alien warrior but when it is about confronting his feeling, when it is about being honest about what he feels and want, somehow, that is harder for him.

Katarina was about to go out using the west exit. 

Azief who was walking toward the east exit stopped, shakes his head and run across the room in almost an instant and grab Katarina hands from behind.

The servants who was in the dining hall and was waiting for the lady and the lord to go out to clean the dining table was shocked when they see the lord suddenly appears beside the lady

To their eyes, the lord walks toward the east exit, look toward Katarina and a second later appears behind Katarina like he teleported there.

He was so fast that to the eyes of normal humans, it appears like he was in one spot in one second and then in another second he was in another. 

Because the distance is short only a small gust of wind sweeps by the area, causing the curtain of the windows to sways wildly for a few seconds before slowly swaying normally again. 

Azief had already created force field to avoid turning the whole dining room into a mess. 

He is more considerate than his sworn brother Will. 

If it was him, this whole dining room would be in a mess as he left a trace of lightning as he runs away from the scene.

Katarina who was walking could only hear a swooshing sound, felt the sensation on her arms and look back to see Azief looking at her.

She immediately blushes red like a tomato. Azief chuckles a bit, with a hint of mischievousness in his eyes.

Katarina looks innocent and timid. But Azief knows she could be every proactive when it is something that she wants.

This is not an inherent trait of her. But a cultivated trait that she had developed after the Fall. Though, Azief likes it that at least when she is with him, she is like this.

Of course…. last night she was not this timid. Last night it was him being timid and innocent. Thinking about it again, he himself wanted to blush in embarrassment. 

That is why he could not help but wanted to laugh. Last night she was very proactive but come morning, it was like she was a different person.

That is why he is very amused to see how she behaves in the dining room. If anything, it would be him that should be embarrassed but seeing Katarina pretending to be innocent all of a sudden, Azief could not help but think that this is just one of her cute side

A side only he knows

'What!' she suddenly said, unintentionally raising her pitch a bit, because of how shocked she was

'Let's talk tonight. I want to clear something with you' he said and he was serious this time. Hearing this Katarina knows what Azief wanted to talk about

'It is just a small matter. It was not the first time' Azief shake his head.

'If that is so, we would not be feeling this way.'

'Let's talk tonight. I don't want you to think that I am doing this to hurt you. I hated myself when it is like this'

'Then you hate what happen last night?'

Azief shook his head.

'No.' he paused for a second and then he said

'It is complicated'

Katarina sighed and shakes her head

'With you it always is. But with me, it is very simple' Azief smiles bitterly at this.

There is silence between them for a few second and then she nodded

'Let's talk tonight' she said and Azief face glows a bit feeling happy.

'let's meet at the balcony.' She said and Azief slowly release his grip on her arms

She then said

'I need time to sort out my feelings' Azief nodded. She knows what Katarina is trying to say to her. It means simply for him to not disturb her until tonight.

Then she walks out form the dining hall and Azief then disappears almost a second later, using his super speed to quickly returns to his room. 

In his room, he checks a few things. He brought out the blue crystal and look at it.

'I need a point of reference' he seems to be saying it to himself. His eyes narrowed and thought to himself

'I need to plan for the future' There is something that he did not tell Katarina, Sofia, Sina and Loki. 

He had been planning a lot of things since he saw his future. 

He also sorts out his thoughts. 

That is why he has been thinking a lot about what he will do when he returns back to Earth.

Measures that needs to be taken, plans that have to be made and schemes and plots that he had to set up beforehand.

There is a grand plan in his mind right now. The blue crystal is also part of that plan. 

He believes that with the assistance of the knowledge hidden in the blue crystal he would be able to slowly perfect his plan

After all, these past five months is not wasted by him. 

There is a lot of time for him to sort out his thought and research some things. 

'I just hope that I am not wrong about this. But even if I'm wrong, I still have time to modify the plan'

The plan he is thinking about is still just a vague plan. He is setting up, thinking of the factors and resources he needed. And perfecting it as he keeps walking on.

He then put back the blue crystal on the secret place only he could access and decided to take a nap before going to the lab.

At the same time Katarina was at her office reading reports. 

She was also not in a comfortable position. Thinking about what would happen tonight fills her with anxiety but it is easily suppressed by her.

That is how morning ended for both Azief and Katarina.
