( Days after Mrs. Clarent's deliverance. )

[ Unknown Remote Medical Facility, outside the Capital of Eliopolis. ]

" I had.., a daughter...? " Mrs. Clarent asks as she cries.

She is full on trauma, her heart is broken after one tragedy over another.

For now, rise a new problem for her, since her child is Arthur's daughter, she begins to recount that the Calibur House is not a safe place on raising a daughter.

" The Calibur House is the house of Absolute Patriarchy... " Mrs. Clarent recounts.

" If they found out, this baby's mother is from the Clarent House, she will... " Mrs. Clarent shivers while holding her daughter whom she named 'Charlotte Antares', which she add the name with her real family name 'Clarent'.

" I'm sorry my daughter... " Mrs. Clarent cries.

" I could've given you a better name, but this the one I could think of right now, for... "

" For that is once my 'public name', back then, your mother is known as the S-Rank Hunter, Charlotte Antares. "

" A name made by my parents to disguise me to the public, to make me escape my House's cruel fate. " she sobs.

* Baby Charlotte cries. *

" I'm sorry, I'm sorry my dear... "

" Forgive your mother's foolishness, I... " Mrs. Clarent then hears a voice of destruction, she panics as her room's door is opened so hard.

" Mrs. Clarent! " said one of the people whom she paid with the last of her money to guard her deliverance.

" We're under attack! " said the person as he orders his people to carry Mrs. Clarent out of there.

" What's going on? who's attacking!? " Mrs. Clarent asks as she then get a glimpse of the attackers from her far sight.

" Those... robes... "

" The 'Leones Sagittarii' (Lionesses of Sagittarius)...? " she sees them, recognizing them as the Calibur House's elite.

Mrs. Clarent panics while she was taken away, the men immediately secured her into a vehicle, immediately let her escape with the baby she holds now.

* Baby Charlotte cries. *

" Mommy's here, mommy's here... " she tries to calm her down.

" It's alright sweetie, mommy's her with you... "

" My baby, baby... "

" Mommy assure you that mommy will not just stand by during this disruption. "

" After we escape, mommy swear will prepare our revenge... "

" For you, for me... "

" For us... " she said to her daughter as they managed to escape, using the split second of moment until those from the Caliburs destroys the remains of the place they were earlier.

...

( Back in the present time. )

"( I've been prepared for this... )"

"( I even risked myself to use others to keep an eye on you Caliburs, even some Hunter-days' contacts whom secretly cared for me... )"

"( Always getting informed of your every moves, even had to change my plans thousands of times for the change of success... )"

" Kukuku... " Mrs. Clarent chuckles as her husband, Arthur Calibur approaches her with his full dominating presence of power.

" Are you already mad, woman? " Arthur asks her, who just chuckled happily after her whole attempt to hurt him fails miserably.

" Hmph, right... "

" You better escape this reality... " Arthur says as he mocks the Mother of his Son's mad laughter.

" For if you still remember me, you should've known that to challenge me is courting death. "

" One you will receive for even trying to do so, and no one will be beside you this time. "

" Not even your Hunter Associates..., for I had secretly dispose of them as I forced the Association's Higher-ups. "

" Despite some of them still exists now, like that Commoner Prodigy friend of yours, Grimshaw... "

" That one, he was lucky he's with the Richters... "

" I should've had him then, but... "

" Now that I found you, Witch... " Arthur approaches and then choked Mrs. Clarent, he raise her up with his choking hand.

* Mrs. Clarent struggles. *

" Now, tell me, Witch... " Arthur says it.

" Where is my son!? " Arthur asks her, while she could only laugh so hard over the things happened.

* Mrs. Clarent laughs so hard, as her mind are getting more maddened. *

" Answer me, Witch! "

" Where. Is. My. Son!? " Arthur asks her with the loudest voice he could muster, his voice is so loud, like that of a lion's roar.

" Ahahahaha! " Mrs. Clarent laughs while her tears and blood continues to flow from her body.

As Arthur's hands gripped her neck even more, he began to loose his patience, he begins to release more of his power, channeling it into his other hand, preparing to stab the crazed traumatic woman with his bare hands, putting aside Excalibur in the ground for a while.

" It seems your mind already escaped reality after all of that... "

" I really want to bring down the greatest of judgments for you, but it seems, that kind of thing is worthless... "

" To even think I should slay you with Excalibur in the first place... " he mocks the pitiful woman's existence.

" You never deserve it. " Arthur tells as he shakes his head.

" Just like the False Son, Mordred who will never deserve the sword's handle then neither should you, his Pitiful descendant! " he grips her neck the hardest.

" ...to even be briefly honored by the stab of its blade. " Arthur charges his Star Magic into his other hand.

" Thus, I will only end you with a 'mere' hand... "

" A fitting end of your 'mere' pitiful, existence... "

" O 'Charlotte Antares'... " Arthur says Mrs. Clarent's name, the name he knows her with in the past, as a Hunter back then.

" Former and failure S-Rank Hunter! "

" Now, die in the greatest of shame! " Arthur shouts it as he begins to do it, in briefest of moments, in the splits of second.

" Wait! " a voice stops him, a little person comes out from the Clarent's Mansion.

The person runs towards both of them, as the person then bows down from the very ground.

" I'm here, do not hurt my mother! " said the little person, the hood is opened, showing the hair and the face, a little boy.

" Who are you? " Arthur asks as the boy shows his face to his eyes, making him surprised when seeing it.

The golden blonde hair, the same radiating blue eyes as himself.

" You... " Arthur sees the boy, noticed the boy's very features.

" My name is 'Carlos Antares Clarent'... " the boy says as he pleads to Arthur.

" Please, please let my mother go! I beg of you! "

" Father...! " said the boy as he kneels with tears in front of Arthur Calibur himself, his father.
