Present time...
Qiang had someone to exchange his gold bullion; and he was given a "mountain" of paper money.
She bought Akame clothes and make-up and dressed her in casual shorts, flannel and alohas and tied up her hair. That was enough to make everyone who saw her gasp in awe...for Akame was infinitely beautiful and as supernaturally beautiful as Mek su.
-- We'll wait here for a few days to come back," Qiang told her, while Akame looked at the wide panoramic glass of the apartment and saw the magnificence of Hong Kong at night.
Akame turned and hugged Qiang tightly, with genuine love.
They both looked at each other and a soft kiss brought them together. A real kiss, a kiss of lovers, perhaps the first real kiss of the two.
Gently Qiang led her to the bed; and if it is true that lovers make love differently. It was different the way Akame and Qiang loved each other, it was romantic, intense, sublime, infinite and deeply romantic.
At the end they were both silent, they embraced each other and Akame whispered, "You won't believe a letter.
-- You won't believe a word of it, but I have fallen in love with you," he said sincerely.
Finally the count whispered.
-- I don't know how it happened, but I must confess that you are the mistress of my heart... I have been a blind man... I have chased a chimera... today we are here and we will continue together...
-- What will happen?
-- We'll have a beautiful girl like you and I'll be an overprotective father.
-- I don't want to break the magic of the moment. She is here. She is real and she has rights over you too. You love me here... in this horrible world... when we come back... what will happen to Mek su?
--More than 10,000 men will come to ask for her hand.
Akame was silent. He placed his face on his beloved's chest.
-- We are human...mistakes, fears, assumptions, struggles and a small moment of happiness...I never want to leave this room...-- Akame said in a whisper....
MEK SU... TIME
--Hang Hing is coming with another army to attack the castle.
He declares Mek su illegitimate and proclaims his authority in the territory of Qiang ling..." said one of the guards of the fief boundaries at the foot of the protocol chair where Mek su was seated...

MELISSA FENG'S TIME...
3.5 kilometers from the refuge apartment where Qiang and Akame had just discovered their feelings....
-- Miss Melissa, what a great pleasure to greet you! Your husband sends his regards," said the voice in a mocking tone.
The four stopped dead in their tracks. 6 men cut them off. Five men prevented them from continuing, and eight were ready to corner them.
-- These guys bring the catalog of the 18 types of ancient weapons of war," said Rai with his legs made of paper.
-- I'm not going to run. I've faced better than these jerks," said Ye Ye, returning to her usual cruel self.
-- A gigantic security mistake. These guys want to turn us into little pieces.
-- As you know, nothing personal. This is just a game," said the man and the group stood on guard.
Ken pulled out an environmental spray.
-- I imagine the smell in the air changed because of your sector," said the group leader, practically on top of the four victims.
The men laughed.
Ken shot a jet of the aerosol, which had a range of about 12 meters; dissolving like a melted candle the first group of men, who turned into a red liquid mass, which spilled onto the floor. The remaining group gave a shriek, dropped their weapons and fled immediately...
One of the men, totally hysterical and terrified, tried to flee, but was hit by Ye Ye....

Kathy listened to Mek su; and discovered something regarding her.
It was true...she had died...she had come back to life. What was true was that Mek su without knowing it was the queen of "gaslighting"....
Kathy felt affinity towards her; she assumed it as a consequence of falling under the influence of the other's supernatural beauty, but she could not quite swallow the expression said by the woman.
-- I came here as a child and understood that I was a slave; that I already had a master, that my future was to give him pleasure regardless of my feelings. It turned out that he fell in love with me. it was not my fault. i was afraid of the overwhelming force of his uncontrollable passion. here i found another slave, just like me. he deceived me and there was a consequence. i paid for my mistake with death. today i have returned; the feelings are still confused in me.... i am again in one way or another a slave of circumstances...and i don't know if i am a slave of his love....
