Background

Unbeknownst to Sherry, they were somewhat in financial trouble, they received a visit from a mysterious man named, Lhuteran Banertt, who introduced himself as a good friend, who would help her mother and her in their work and funds for other things. What was she doing, during that time her mother began to study the artifacts she received and that Mr. Barnett gave her, including the "Eye of Greed" and since then, a very affectionate relationship began to form since then.

But without knowing anything, one night, Sherry secretly witnessed the death of her mother at the hands of a mysterious man (without realizing it was Barnertt) and was traumatized by that fact that would mark her entire childhood, and she cried hard at death. After her mother's funeral, Sherry was taken in by Mr. Barnett who treated her like his own daughter (not knowing that he was manipulating her), and Sherry began to try to recover from the event, and decided to continue her mother's investigation and work. ever since, while spending the rest of his childhood with his adoptive father, Mr. Barnett.

As she walks in the cafeteria, Cid gives her a chocolate he doesn't need. Later, Ruslan sees the chocolate and she explains a boy gave it to her. He tells her that its hard to obtain such good chocolate, so the boy must really like her and she must consider well what she will reply.

Sherry goes to see Cid at the tournament and after his loss, she checks on him. She gives him cookies and asks if they can be friends and he accepts. Learning his name, she realizes he was Alexia's boyfriend and goes to speak with her, but Alexia explains that they are no longer together and were pretending to be a couples. That makes Sherry happy and she gets excited to work even more harder to decipher the text.
