You are right. Maybe there really will be some deep interaction betweem them. Considering the author's words about focusing on KiriAsu, I think we can be sure these two things might be connected somehow.

Anyway, I saw you discussion about future events in light novel.

It seems your predictions might come true. If next volume will act as conclusion to whole Underworld arc, and thus we will have eternal farewell to Alice, I am all for it.
