Heueye and Leonard are lazing around the palace much to Rachel's chagrin as Ange is sent on her next mission to planet Kirieveru to retrieve the Guardian of Darkness. Ange finds Francis, an escort and playboy, at an old mansion, where he believes her story very readily much to her surprise. However, his playboy exterior makes Ange believe he is not taking her seriously. At a ball, it is revealed he cares about his city and wants to make changes to better improve the smog conditions. Ange attempts to convince the mayor, but comes up short, and Francis makes things worse by acting like his playboy self again. She returns to his mansion and confronts Francis. Francis ends up falling off a balcony due to the decaying rain, and Ange grabs him but both are pulled over the edge. The Sacrea of Darkness activates and saves them, and Francis agrees to come with Ange, as long as she promises to stay by his side as much as possible.
