The maids led Julian and Raphael through the corridors, until they arrived at a secluded cabin. The maid with brown eyes stepped forward as she spoke.
"Please, young masters, wait here," she said. "Lady Katsuna will arrive shortly."
Julian leaned casually against the doorframe, his gaze lingering on the maid with curiosity. "Lady Katsuna, you say?"
The maid nodded, her eyes glowing with respect as she continued.
"She is the owner of this brothel, young master. One of the wealthiest women in the underground city. A powerful figure, both feared and adored in equal measure."
Raphael raised an eyebrow, his interest piqued despite his hesitation. "Powerful, you say? How so?"
The maid's smile never wavered, though there was a hint of something darker in her eyes.
"Lady Katsuna has influence that extends far beyond these walls. She controls many of the city's… underground operations. She is also known for her cunning and her ability to bend people to her will, should she wish to."
