Shin Yoosung had a private attribute 'Beast Tamer', which allowed her to tame the monsters. She would be a great help for them if only she could control her power. As someone who also possessed the ability 'Diverse Communication', Lee Gilyoung was the most capable to help her evolve.

When Kim Dokja wondered why it seemed like Lee Gilyoung disliked Shin Yoosung, Kim Namwoon said bluntly "Boss Lady, you should not be surprised. It's only the jealousy and insecurity from the first adopted child towards the second adopted child".

Both Kim Dokja and Han Sooyoung said in unison "We didn't experience it".

Lee Hyunsung cautiously asked, "Ah, speaking of which... what did Joonghyuk-Ssi mean with... In the second thought, no, never mind".

Kim Dokja turned her head behind, only to find Yoo Joonghyuk who narrowed his eyes before gesturing her to follow him "Kim Dokja, we need to talk".

With a thin smile, Kim Dokja stood and followed him "Okay".

Once their sister and brother had gone out of sight, Han Sooyoung started to eat her lemon candy lollipop "Good. At least, they still have some dignity left to talk privately out of our sight".

Yoo Mia wondered "The continuation of their Lovers Quarrel or reconciliation?".

"Both", Han Sooyoung snorted "Since when Unnie could be angry for a too long time to your Oppa?".

"Sooyoung Unnie, which round is it now?".

"If you ask me about which round their Lovers Quarrel is, I don't know and I don't care", Han Sooyoung shook her head "Unless your brother hurt my sister, that, I care".

"It's not like Oppa would hurt Dokja Unnie deliberately", Yoo Mia rolled her eyes before she had an idea "Ah. Why don't we ask the constellations later? They always watch us, right?".

Thinking this was their chance to speak, Jung Heewon asked "Han Sooyoung, about what Joonghyuk-Ssi said just now...".

"Ah, you're curious about it", Han Sooyoung spoke clearly to the people in this group "Well, I and Unnie are not related by blood. Our adopted mother, Han Youra, was a widow who lost her husband and her children due to the accident. When she wanted to start over her life, she met with Unnie who lived as her neighbour. Strangely, not only my Unnie looked exactly like her deceased husband, but Unnie also has the same name as her dead husband, 'Kim Dokja'. Then, our adopted mother, Han Youra took Unnie when she was 11 years old. She adopted me when Unnie was 15 years old".

Yoo Sangah narrowed her eyes "...And that kind-hearted woman who adopted you two had...".

Han Sooyoung nodded her head and closed her eyes "Yes, she passed away 5 years ago. For a half year, I and Unnie were totally lost and Yoo Joonghyuk was the one who helped us with letting us stay in his house. It didn't end quite well, though".

Lee Jihye pondered "What do you mean with 'it did not end quite well'? From what we saw, Master and Mistress are on good terms".

At that, Yoo Mia added, "...It's because of us. Because we were too childish and selfish".

Before Yoo Mia finished her words, though, they saw the indirect messages from the constellations.
