Morning came far too early for Louise. Her body attempted to yawn but instead she got a headache and cough instead.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTugqNA6TVM
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRryiuf3q5
Louise: ‘What…happened? Why do I feel so…empty.’
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhzAjghOLz
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXNguXwTY0
Looking for some answers, Louise forced her eyes open and scanned around her room. The room was dark, only lit by a sliver of sunlight passing through the small gap between the curtains.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnrJQPC264
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqzL4401BT
Despite that, Louise can feel it. There is someone else in the room. Louise turns her head to the sensation and sees a beautiful woman in a maid’s uniform.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgEiC1Bcdz
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpbfZ2yUEE
Many thoughts rushed through her mind. Like why is there a maid sleeping in her room? But the answer came when she noticed the woman’s fiery red hair.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxK9NWEzwI
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3ml041mLj
All at once, the events of yesterday flooded into her mind. She gripped her head in a vice grip as the memories resurfaced. She bites her lip to prevent any screaming.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡan4uaO5lj7
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdhPdRYCpk
She won’t be found lacking in front of her familiar, even if she is asleep.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAyUzSvBqe
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVd0XiWicwH
Louise: ‘Wait…familiar…’
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyXN6UMnqM
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8eowK4LJY
The thought of summoning not one but seven familiars eases her headache and feeling of emptiness.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYg5lYi2Hj
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEYimcmbfH
Louise: ‘I did it! But no, I didn’t finish the bonding ritual. I need to finish it otherwise it won’t count!’
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlUeaE2hQV
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPKZL7j92C
Louise felt the need to kick her familiar awake and get to business. But that emptiness returned once again. She just didn’t have that much energy right now.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0hWQbnBrf
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHmQwpEPQ7
Louise: ‘Is it because of that fake me I saw? Did she do something to me?! When I get my hands on her…’
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZUk1VxjiZ
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDvb6EVakj
Shaking her head, she returned to the main issue. She forced her body to move to the curtains. She pulled them apart and gathered her strength for a command.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tHMH5xJlQ
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLMx1rZ6nB
Louise: “Rise and shine, familiar! You have a job to do!”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJfe0yyvVt
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVwXRfF9pp
Her familiar tossed and turned on the hay before opening her eyes.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2l3uPkdmI
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgy4iMIC7Q6
Flamma: “Morning already. Shame, I was having the best dream.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbHe8W0f1f
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8rfeMzH4O
She said weakly before recognizing the voice that spoke.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJZ0aikGX3
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7d4ovFw2ap
Flamma: “Louise! Are you alright?!”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMciSwz1ZV
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kcIu5wTEm
Flamma quickly got up and rushed to Louise’s side.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrWedHaXzl
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNrps42tCG
Louise: “Of course, it will take more than whatever that faker did to slow me down.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWYv9BXq6G
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvUrvrLGnc
She says while using all of her strength to just stand up.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOchp3lbdZz
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpzoeRgFE4
Flamma: “Are you sure?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxikxmncsae
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Nvh01oPWr
Louise: “Yes! Now, we need to finish the bonding spell so can really become my familiar.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49hj2ADehc
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNEctci1uT
Flamma: “Well, if you have the strength.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSW0mJQgVp
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3w7LfKlPk
Louise: “Good, now bring me my wand so we can do this.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Ahj8Xc56D
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzHkIXZ0zo
Flamma quickly retrieved her wand and gave it to Louise.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Fa3OcmOlJ
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMOqSPMBQv
Louise: “Kneel.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNENLQlIVzJ
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lRyLeSmwn
Flamma: “Excuse me?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzoCC3t6DH
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrM8d79Gmx
Louise: “Kneel so I can complete the spell!”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsD7g1uImnX
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dQiShoaEy
Flamma took a few moments before doing as Louise commanded. Louise then placed her wand on Flamma’s forehead before chanting.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwnXXr4vQK
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gSpNXgyu9
Louise: “My name is Louise Francoise le Blanc de la Valliere, Pentagon of the Five Elemental Powers. Bless this humble being, and make her my familiar.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFb3jeQQls
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6nOU3ANrS
After chanting, she removed her wand from Flamma’s forehead and kneltdown in front of her. Both of her hands moved to touch her familiar's rounded face.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8scXsTO8C
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAmzjMzG37
Louise would’ve blushed and wished her first kiss was with Wardes. But right now, she just wanted to get this over with. As for Flamma…
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0mnM7xPlg
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSJNELY8tQ
Flamma: ‘Okay, why is she leaning in for a kiss? Is this how familiar bindings work? I mean, this isn’t my first time kissing a girl. Maybe it’s Louise’s first time?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvSl4QefLZ
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8es2z8h3q
She wondered with amusement as Louise's plush lips made contact with her own.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1o8v2zEtIz
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHGYdLn7yV
Flamma: ‘Yup, it’s her first time. Makes me wonder if Dovah ever kissed a girl. Or would be willing to…’
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZeLfJVgp17
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfcr7rkAZf
Louise pulled away with a slight blush before Flamma made her thoughts known.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZ5gWFGIB3
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAqTURkZTp
Flamma: “First kiss?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4izVrfYYmb
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUjjUrRa8D
Louise: “S-Shut up, familiar!”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjXUiU5cNE
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlMea9Iffx
Flamma: “I have a name Louise. It’s Aeterna Flamma.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwFNAyxqdp
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvEyvN6ebA
Louise: “Whatever, now we have to brand the rest of those disobedient famili-”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNT1OgOUvE
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIqhH0aaPP
Before she could finish, her strength finally gave out and she began to free fall toward the floor. But before she can hit it, Flamma catches her.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSlVduszx3
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutiqF4buA0
Flamma: “I don’t think you have the strength to brand anyone. And what do you mean by brand anyway?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wu0VpBpew
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2krjj2QQVz
Pain.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvFoDw9UsY
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGERlkJfbo0
That was what Flamma felt flaring from the back of her left hand and lancing all the way up to her elbow. Flamma almost screamed in pain as the stinging sensation throbbed violently on her hand.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAWm7ZolvR
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9h4fU8ARv
She might have dropped Louise if the pain didn’t stop all of a sudden. She inhaled and exhaled sharply before carrying Louise to her bed.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5CW5poCOT
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5xoEerjr6
Flamma: ‘Damn, should getting a familiar binding rune really hurt that much?!’
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZBKDTJQ5W
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKS0lqpI4Wb
Louise: “Let me…go.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgkZL48DE4
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9jeK6sZdP
Flamma: “No can do. You are clearly too weak to-”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzZc9kq90R
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Dzo6BV3Vr
Louise: “I’m NOT weak!”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGcVHwj7mWK
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4sa8kZXED
Flamma: “Louise, you could barely stand.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJNzo8SixO
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2F8od0N5gT
Louise: “I just need a moment, that’s all.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmm09Yz8ktA
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySUJox3OgM
Flamma: “Well, you can have that moment on the bed.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOSPJ8wZFP
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXjkWVlPEl
She says as she deposits Louise onto the bed.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZmpPgh3l5
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX02LIzSBKJ
Flamma: “I’ll stay with you until you can stand again.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xzhqp17rU
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmRIOmYUeC
Louise: “As you should. A familiar should protect their master.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNnw5mgndl
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5wrj9w0EQ
Silences descends into he room as Flamma sat down on the hay pile. For 5 minutes, it seemed like they would spend all day in the quiet. That’s until Louise broke the silence.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAzI8BkH3j
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wwbReuT9m
Louise: “Tell me…what happened while I was out.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sHj03eKy2
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQCCSeLHlf
Flamma smiled before replying.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUl9Iq7VSb
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5QvkhQGHx
Flamma: “Well, I have a story for you.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1CezQpTVX
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfI02Vdmhka
Colbert: “Is he any better?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5Tbae0iUz
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgpWblb3oM
Colbert is once again outside the nurse’s office, checking in on the boy. He also checked on Louise 2 but there was little he could do in that situation. At least until Louise’s family arrived. Will the headaches ever cease?
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwJRvnMeeb
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡongzDwK9F1
“Better we think.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDPCkOJN3m
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoma2hNEa6
Colbert: “Think?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFUT7lVxdp
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWijgdpakc1
“Well, the boy has what looks like a weak heart, low muscle strength all over his body and damaged lungs. In all sense, he is beyond our abilities to heal. But…”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfeKdxoHVo
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9npMEB88jK
Colbert: “But what?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0Kau1Fk7d
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPh2ljpSC2
“The steel plating covering his body is somehow holding him stable, even aiding him. I do not know what it is or how it works. But it seemed to have healed him over the night. We’re afraid of removing it because doing so may just kill him.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOvWl2UOU7
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEDGIKcfia
Colbert: “That was a smart decision. He seems to be like Louise 2, beyond what we can understand. Maybe I can ask Bench to-”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNmp3nUiCE
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNU6vhzwvw
Before he could finish that thought, a nurse opened the door in a panic.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX95jKamZ4r
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnNII67EmN
“He’s awake, and having trouble breathing! He says to get his bag!”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtOiRU78ZL
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVr6MdjHop2
Colbert: “Where’s his bag!”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxYgpCq7w1
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPYdYvYKG5
The 3 rushed inside, disparately looking for his bag. Colbert quickly found it under one of the beds. Someone must have placed it there to make room for a student who got hurt doing something stupid.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tcGnofuPl
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBEBdByZpj
When Colbert rushed to give the bag to the boy, he desperately pointed to the bag.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzOLh210jo
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZtepMTJvI
Colbert: “What? What should I do?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lTMWzPgIX
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05FsLmz4sl
The boy pointed at the metal tab at the bottom of the line of teeth. Colbert observed it and tried pulling the tab. It opened the bag and revealed another steel plate, like the ones on the boy.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyFIGjilzA
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9O8p6Yapq6
Colbert didn’t understand how it all worked, but he could tell the boy needed this steel plate. He removed it and handed it to the boy.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ocufQqMwb
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWQsBPiTsL
The boy hurriedly ejected the steel plate glowing red instead of green before carefully inserting its replacement. Once it was in, it glowed green and he took a very large gasp of air. He did this a few more times before lying down, coughing and gasping as he did.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Xd90g0H3C
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2SPRUNPhH
After a minute of breathing, he sat himself up.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOieEP7zH6p
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsgHOFF1A9
Colbert: “Are you alright?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZXoTrXnwi
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQdUEBePh2
No reply. Instead, he looked around until his eyes landed on his earmuffs and glasses. He pointed to them. Colbert understood and gave him what he needed.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FmruUUYF5
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEAKpQJbiJ
The boy put the accessories on before tapping the earmuffs a few times. A small stick with a bulge at the end appeared out of his earmuffs. He then bent it in front of his mouth.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCI5yhRyUO

“Thanks, I was almost a goner.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiFSyHjBIW

418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAavcVLGvHP

“Yeah, for now.”

418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKb4eakEfW

Tech: “Name’s Tech, now my turn. Where am I?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡke2mcfOP8s
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKLrPTkwXj
Colbert: “In the country of Tristan, and you’re in the nurse’s office of the Tristan Magic Academy. I’m one of the teachers.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkHzpLlEBM
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXNBC6oeEQ
Tech looked at Colbert like he was crazy.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdK6i3WWRv9
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLwgkbtvwm
Tech: “Magic? Puh-leez, no such thing.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80kNeUvc3V
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGXZiBGYGS
He said as if that was a universally understood fact. Colbert, to prove magic does exist, created fire from nothing. Tech was not impressed.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUEpaiz6FC
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahEW2CDWGf
Tech: “For all I know you’re using a holoprojector. Try doing something more impossible.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2lgD61ZK8
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnq4vqcEi6
Colbert tried levitation.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHirchAO0J
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YQHfqpYkg
Tech: “Anti-gravity disks or even strings and wires.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKgB5iWI7n
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzMdaPZXEC
Colbert tried many other things but nothing managed to convince Tech. Even mentioning Dragon transformations didn’t get him to budge. Maybe raise an eyebrow but nothing else.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSgsxkiQkG
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXDuzJYKBB
Tech: “Okay, enough fake and tell. How did I get here?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVckWyUzZOM
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ987aYtkOVg
Colbert: “You were summoned by Louise as her familiar. One of seven, something that has never happened before.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqBOHsRzIZ
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDpu8IuyKG
Tech: “Summoned? Can you send me back?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGTFtsEmND
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4R6SGuYzh
Colbert: “I’m afraid not. But one of your fellow familiars did say she might be able to. You just have to learn her magic or wait until she finds where you came from.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrmGybNQaw
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyegEOwEYj
Tech: “Great, another loony. Where is she?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmCv7r4VgC
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClWXVAIvOf

418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFa9g4tm2W9
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KU9iFQfFz
Tech: “Damn it! For all I know, she might have tricked you all! She’s probably not coming back. Alright, one thing at a time. Why did you summon me?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7KmtM75z5L
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytesmtcQJw
Colbert then proceeded to explain to him the familiar system.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdnoZCgaiM
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0hsUqW32EX
Tech: “Hell no! I’m not being anyone’s slave. The one chick that agreed must have been desperate or stupid.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxziWpfH2jI
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNmsOsFQHb

418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0cJdXWV1r
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UaJQcCBAQ
Tech: “I won’t lie, the story about this Ravager does interest me. But I won’t let anyone I don’t know help me with my repairs.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhkfLaMXKx
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdlJmor2jL
Colbert: “Understandable.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oXVAEiRG0

Dovahkiin blinked blearily after being shaken by a gentle but firm hand. Dovahkiin fully opened her eyes to see the sun through the clouds.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ONzBIKjfH

Dovahkiin: ‘Morning already. Or is it afternoon?’
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvwvOfgir4
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAw4AkMoKmH
Looking over at who woke her up, she is greeted by a black-haired girl in a maid’s uniform. The harried look on her face surprised Dovahkiin, then she finally registered what the man said.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXKwa52PuB

Dovahkiin: ‘I guess the disguise worked.’

The girl pulled Dovah up by her arms and darted out of the hall. When they made it into the kitchen, she was surprised by all of the activity. Servants were carrying large baskets of what looked like cherries to cauldrons that were suspended over the fire. The head chef was standing next to them, adding sugar. Glancing up at the two new arrivals he immediately pointed to the table.

418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YaFrFDLNy
Siesta: “Lay out the rolls of dough so I can get them flattened out.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7T2z23raSk
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡseFFyARlWC
Dove: “Got it.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIpdTfA87H
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bF5TzVIV2
Dove got to work alongside Siesta and even got into a comfortable rhythm. That gave Dove a chance to ask a question.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5dp10CuCp
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTV8IIfRMy4
Dove: “Hey Siesta?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5KslkEnkv
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfH7ysVbfVY
Siesta: “Yes?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEv7WuOeXN
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYqfuQm19P
Dove: “Is the academy hiring anyone? Maybe an assistant Chef?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83cOMMCuXZ
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJHnsTwlcd
Siesta: “I heard that the headmaster was asking the Chef to find someone who could help him. He wanted to appoint someone as the assistant Chef but Martone said that he didn’t want just anyone poking around his kitchen. Why do you ask? Do you know anyone who needs a job?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJHMRN5RMB
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFNdoQH768
Dove: “Yes, me.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTAW7ymzZF
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTr6OKNy1ab
Siesta blinked and looked up at Dove.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvCdoYxSYr
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghE9b7macv
Siesta: “What do you mean? You’re already a maid.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9BQuTiGAE
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllqKqhtmhh
Dove: “Well actually…I’m a traveler and needed a place to sleep and some new clothes. I kind of snuck into the hall after…temporarily borrowing the outfit from a chest I found. The rest you know.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxfchHyDjz
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2mjekfxQk
Siesta hadn’t moved since the admission, frozen in surprise. Dove moved to the left, Siesta didn’t respond. She moved to the right, no response.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IPzvmb37U
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMqSZFHHDR
Dove: “Was what I said wrong? S-Should I leave?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtJ5RK8JJ4
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbDqYIMjr6
Siesta finally blinked and shook her head.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmU4sBDd50
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNEHvMgAGp
Siesta: “No no, you just caught me off guard. I thought that you were a maid and I was embarrassed that I forced you here.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPX0fJw7T5
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEViYrtp7r
Dove smiled gently before giving a reply.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYL3c7y7V5X
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpWSwdsiFH
Dove: “So, do you think I could get the job if I ask for it?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0A30eR8XY
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhLanTGA5Kt
Siesta: “Yes, I think that you could get the job.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1wt16Q5Vs
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlBYVWm6jO
Dove: “So when do you think I should ask? Obviously, I should wait for this to be over but do you think I should wait a little while or-?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7QgbpbMvj
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPTJ7cq9Zs
Siesta: “You should ask right afterwards, while the rest of us are delivering the pies. You should have time then.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9v3MDlQ5L4
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEz5YCXEdfv
Dove: “Got it.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3d6acv01qE

Flamma: “Well, who do we have here?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfi7erUUr4N
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgETnsZXGT
From behind the two came Flamma, standing out easily with her red hair and unbeatable curves.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MdXFmxs2q
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4IcHm8q5k
Siesta: “Hello Miss Flamma.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eOU0T6jBz
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOwbmrKJXt
Flamma: “Please, no miss Siesta. Thanks again for helping me bring food to Louise’s room.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJtZSncCYm
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKyfDfrS8wl
Siesta: “It was no problem. I hope she gets better.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMYF6Cn3RW
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5vKzitv9d
Flamma: “As do I. Now, who is this lovely lady.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpsvPZIvBa
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxj5FEhCV2
Siesta: “This is Dove, soon-to-be assistant Chef.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJC5jIUePfv

Flamma: “Oh really?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWORghHUFHD
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77NPhTKl4R
She says with a smirk.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFtBp2oEbv
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiBNyDjBQR
Flamma: “Mind if I borrow her for a moment Siesta? I would like to get to know my future co-worker.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoua4nFpM4

Siesta: “Don’t be too long.”

Flamma: “I won’t.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3ScpEP84Z
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21JJHlNsM5
Before Dove could protest, Flamma grabbed her arm and dragged her to someplace more secluded.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj078KubORh
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBT5m4COKn
Once there, Flamma whispered into Dove’s ear.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6q5y97a2YK
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVh9nvgrpw
Flamma: “Dove is it? Should I take you adopting the pet name I gave you as a sign you play for the other team?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemHwNfALZG
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nKZ0sAeXf
Dove: “No, you should not take that as a sign. It was a good name so I used it. That’s all.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0ULxsoFtA
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacNC64Sldr
Flamma: “So you say.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHrlyWBqRs
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46Aq4bTtgC
Dove: “Anyway, why are you here anyway? Shouldn’t you be working someplace else?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNy0rtL2aBH
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDv6fNMeUTO
Flamma: “I’m a maid to remember? Also, I’m a great cook. So why not help out when needed? Face it Dove, you’ll have to get used to working with me.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64En92EjCc
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJtmTcRKTw
Dove: “As long as you don’t flirt with me while working.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNIIu86P6r

Flamma: “Off the job is fine then?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwlr3HInOc
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbg2zR7SX2N
Dove sighed before trying to redirect the conversation to someone else.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVbvzuHXbe
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFosonUhS4
Dove: “I thought you were pairing me with Zander?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2huk3JHR7K
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtND6o2fS4
Flamma: “That was before a certain ebony beauty got the hots for him.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTzYypDuS2
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkQM0NJpjr
Dove: “…What?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAQ345b1ut
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0j9MqeazB
The morning was good for Zander. After a restful sleep under the stars, nothing can bring him down. When the sun came up and he awoke to a new day, he had a good feeling.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbED2AP0Gw
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91r6zPRwa4
He spent most of the morning just relaxing and enjoying the scenery. Even the students gathering around and having fun was enjoyable. Sure, he kept an eye on Jake who he could sense in the nearby tree. He just sat up there practically motionless. Even he can admit to being a bit freaked out by his behavior.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkVg9KHzVu
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmg7mrO2hs6
Zander: ‘Based on what Dovahkiin told me after I brought her food, he’s probably waiting for that girl from before to come back. I have to admit, her portal ability is greater than mine. I can only go back to my own realm, not find and transport to others.’
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ztmXPzj7B
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfamTvgIPQ8
Aside from moments like that, all was well in the world. That was until a tall and seductive ebony woman approached.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZwKioig8d
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvb4g1Np6CF
Zander: ‘Oh, here we go again.’
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9pYcpSy60

Kirche: “Good afternoon.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfwcVQn6uy

Zander: “Hello, good afternoon. Is there something you need?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRF6QyahT4Q
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZM3ZEr95HB
Kirche: “I can think of a few things. But first, introductions are in order. My name is Kirche Augusta Frederica von Anhalt Zerbst. The quiet girl behind me is Tabitha. It’s a pleasure to meet you.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTSbV2o43b
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lHpwZDDHh
Zander looked behind Kirche and noticed the blue-haired girl reading a book while holding a staff larger than her small frame.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwlMG0RQIS
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55DTwQsSac
Zander: “I am Zander. Likewise.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjrdBwu13A
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoycZO5iMg
Kirche: “So the talk of the school is that one of Louise’s summons was a noble. More than that, a prince.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEm4pkNIFmG
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DXBWvM2XA
Zander chuckled before answering.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKV5wxpEwP
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUoOGt9WRwk
Zander: “A prince? Perhaps. I don’t have an official title like that since I’m not affiliated with any one specific Haven. But my colleagues all insist that I have a formal position in each of their Havens.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9ubP4PIWj
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmA16vkzp4
Zander frowned before continuing.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAer7DS86VV
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoo64QXX3c4
Zander: “I guess I’m more of a king consort than a prince. Even if we’re not married.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazUHkCC2SM
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKaIIC2eY9S
Kirche: “Colleagues? You mean the female summons?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCoCatuDEpc
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBpsA8E9v6
Zander: “Oh no, I mean the priestesses of my home.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDlApy5apU
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOoUc5tJDw
Kirche: “Priestesses?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xTGL1fXeL
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4jovgUGfw
Zander: “Well, they’re more or less like queens.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuREcImG6b
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqY102urFG
Kirche eyes bulged with lust, imagining a future where she is one of these queens.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8fnqr3VTe
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlDhjw8C3R
Kirche: “Queens you say. I would love to know more, how about over dessert? Are you hungry?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxs31PWyPzO
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQk73JVir2n
Zander: “…A little.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5PRLwFxSa
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8bJXiET3E
Kirche: “Great, follow me to the outside dining area. Dessert should be arriving shortly. Tabitha, come.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDly2U4hiMT
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1XQmtCGgJ
As the trio walked to their seats, Kirche started with her questions.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13UDQsrU1E
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIftgNfcmM9
Kirche: “Your Majesty, If I may be so bold-”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12C6ukgMP7
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlfA4J6hM3
Zander: “Zander is fine.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8htcklZeph
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfA1KqBO5E
Kirche: “Then, Zander, if I may be so bold, how many queens do you have?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WWtrhHSjz
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfm50L9lOQx
Zander: “If you’re asking what I think you’re asking, then none. We’re not in that kind of relationship.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYWhZbrqfq
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPs7SZ9Fgi
Kirche: “Then how does one find himself the king consort of several queens?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmivHKpTGdk
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCtBaljweM
Zander: “From where I’m from, few men can perform magic.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmPIjsYQDQ
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoX2X0T0tal
The trio made it to an open table and sat down. Flame stayed near Kirche while Slyphid lay near Tabitha. Zander took a moment to collect himself before continuing the story.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7jw2sOKWg
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡua9ijQaGZE
Zander: “Well, nowadays I’m the only man who can. Men who can use magic are called magisters. Few magisters have ever existed, but all of them have been known to have done great things.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8Ea1IDQDN
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckAMqeuZqI
Kirche: “Such as?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyrn5gZjUH
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMx0PpjpTcD
Zander: Magister Adom was a hero who single-handedly drove the demon armies back into the north. Magister Berth constructed the Great Barrier that spans the entirety of the north, keeping the demons from ever returning. Magister Calin built the Havens.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYauijTn0s
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNonRGgaxh7
Kirche: “And what did you do?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBwQjB2J3t
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4nlhOtWLB
Zander smiled bitterly, recalling old memories through glazed eyes.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9r78MS2vZ
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DfsvKV29t
Zander: “I suppose I united the Havens after a civil war. Restored the honor of the Magistrum after the Magisters were exiled about 900 years ago. Defeated the demon armies from the south and…”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXWMoFI8Ur
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgiNG6xcmmz
Zander sighed before ending his list of accomplishments.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNv3oMYl7l
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydS3oom5NW
Zander: “I founded immortality.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Hbkm1rMw4
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWvR6245gW
Kirche’s mouth hit the table while Tabitha dropped her book. All was silent for a good minute before Kirche could pick up the pieces of her mental state.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84tN5IKfGn
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZTctLZGKD
Kirche: “W-What do you just say?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRdHcR6Vbq
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo29mI1GNqQ
Zander: “I was busy and I’m not eager to meet the Gods.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAc75dGuzz
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQiZo8o3TU
Kirche: “But immortality?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJBJXM92RN
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvB71oBMOD1
Zander: “I’m 756 years old.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zRvRRYXE5
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43GHKFR2Ka
Tabitha: “Old.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPhGKtkYCg
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydFqeBap9c
Zander: “There were circumstances. After we dealt with all of our problems, my colleagues and I realized that dying could risk everything we worked so hard for. So I found immortality. We’re now Othland’s immortal rulers.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiP8VcgQO2U
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAmFvcjVkX
Zander: “It’s also why the Gods are displeased with me. Turning the priestesses into immortals ruined the Gods’ traditional ceremonies. The priestesses are supposed to be sacrifices, you see.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoh1Hz9pJ5M
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnrY7q76AO
Kirche: “Sacrificing the queens?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZNEvcD0Ht
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwV171OKzO
Zanders: “It’s a religious thing. Sacrificing the priestess lets her become an avatar of her God after death. Pretty stupid if you ask me. I don’t regret stopping it one bit.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqamIo0IoW
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTt6gL1K0G
Kirche: “How romantic. Facing Gods to spend eternity with your beloved.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT12gYkhDYb

Zander: “I look after my-”

“Would anyone like some pie!?”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9o55FEeO5
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3mlPWc4MN
The trio were surprised by the voices of the maids nearby. Turning they saw a trio of maids.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGoZ6KVcis
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZ8J0zDOr8
One a common sight around the academy, black-haired and sweet, Siesta.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf875RCTrUo

One a recent sight around the academy, red-haired and Louise’s familiar, Flamma.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbUssMlhNF
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyKWFsJhU1
Between those 2 was a completely new face, one that was gunning for the table where Zander and Kirche were.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fH4ZYghNc
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxDmN6XJTm
Dove: “Would any of you like some Cherry Pie? I made it myself.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vguptQB7t
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9p0MVZDZA
Her voice was nice, some nearby boys wanted to hear it sing. In all the right ways. She ignored them until her business at this table was done.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3s8H99Zgz
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOG7YL3kRRv
Tabitha: “Please.”

Tabitha: “Pie.”

418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEl4W1XpEza
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdVjpzI67t
Tabitha took the offered pie and started eating. IT WAS DELICIOUS! Tabitha quickly finished it, immediately asking for seconds.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPT5iNBU9pm
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOiYzzR51qb
Dove was surprised and then laughed at Tabitha’s stone face with a smudge or two of cherry smeared on the corners of her lips. Tabitha reached for more.

Tech was done with his repairs. The process did shock some nurses. He did have to remove and reattach his replacement arms and legs after all. Using nanobots to turn his hands into the tools he need didn’t help. They thought he was another Ravager in disguise or something.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHKsX1Lc7Y
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOMZh9Itzq
This and more clued Tech in that this world was primitive. Only recently getting a taste of higher technology. Regardless, Tech was stuck here for now and so needed to eat and test out his repairs.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvej4Q88Km
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfr7Tux61ow
He found his way to the kitchen and was greeted by a good number of the staff. They were much better than the stuck-up brats he met along the way. Calling him a commoner and such.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMRAMfceKP
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKogn2OEd9h
Tech then politely asked the Chef for permission to use a part of his kitchen to make his own food. His body still couldn’t eat some things until he made some new upgrades.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUwmVwl6hP
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDZnCqmSZr
The Chef Martone didn’t seem to mind to much as long as he didn’t take too long. Tech’s bonny body led credence to his claim that he needed to follow a certain diet for his body’s weak stomach.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6fV6h2AB9q
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1jhnVSj7V
Tech enjoyed the meal he created, he even befriended one of the maids named Siesta. The whole encounter gave him enough energy to further test his legs and arms. He exited the kitchen a bit earlier than the maid trio.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlrQG1p5Ft
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBlwNoKClh
Being outside also gave him a chance too observe how the “Noble” class worked. What he got was nothing but slight disgust. Aside from one glowing exception, they all held themselves very high and mighty-like. Something he didn’t like, even in himself.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJwkJiSq3i
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfXdy5RLHv
This observation and testing went on until a ruckus dragged everyone’s attention. A very loud ruckus that involved a playboy and Siesta.

Flamma kept an eye on Dove and Zander while she did her normal duties. She couldn’t quite catch the conversation but she’ll be sure to get the full details from Dove later.

Usually, she wouldn’t participate in idle gossip but it helped her ignore the other noise. The flamboyant demands, lecherous stares, and envious gazes. Even with Dove around, she still drew the most attention.

Flamma: ‘The woes of being the most beautiful woman in the room.’

So as to not be caught looking too long, Flamma turned her attention to the other maid. She apparently was trying her hardest to get the attention of a blonde noble kid. He was probably talking sweet nothings to a brunette girl given her love-struck expression.

The blonde guy was pointedly ignoring her, but some of his peers around him would recognize the perfume Siesta was trying to give him.

“Hey Guiche, isn’t that Montmorency’s perfume?”

418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xqEHq4JNv
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGP2nXbRPN
This would earn the blond student Guiche a suspicious look from the brunette girl. Flamma noticed the blonde girl with her hair curled to the sides storms up to Guiche’s table.

Everyone, even Dove and Zander was looking at this sad display. As for Flamma, she could only close her eyes in sympathy for Guiche’s failure. Emphasized by two loud echoing slaps.

Flamma, Zander and Dove snapped out of their thoughts. They saw Guiche seething red in anger as he pointed accusingly at Siesta.

Flamma and Dove stormed over to aid their fellow maid but someone else actually got there first. A sickly young boy was standing between Siesta and Guiche. The same one that cooked his own meal in the kitchen.

Everyone was stunned by the turn of events. 2 of Louise’s familiars were protecting one of the maids. But few had hope for their struggle. After all, those 2 were only commoners. Even with an extra maid’s help, it didn’t matter.

There was silence for a time. Guiche smirked while Siesta’s eyes widened in fear and worry for her new friends. But the three didn’t seem scared, in fact…

Guiche finally turned around and faced the man towering over him.

Zander: “Yes. Now, I wouldn’t want to get in the way of Dove and Flamma beating you senseless. You do deserve it. But you will not prevent the boy from sitting down and you will not fire the maids. That’s not within your power.”

Now that Tech is in a better position, he regained the floor with his next words.
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNxNzjl4gu
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGr4Omp7Xzi
Tech: “Guiche, you claim to be a noble, but all I see is a coward whose pride clouds his eyes and whose fear makes him seek the weak. If someone weaker than you gets in your way, you have no problem harming them. But when they’re stronger than you, you back away. As proven by how you practically shrunk in front of the prince. You say you’re a rose, but all I see is a vile weed.”
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdL5eiDJ7Kq
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8quWuc9tF3
Before the impact of his words could fully register, Tech glared at Guiche with his enraged neon green eyes. It almost glowed with fury, so much so it actually forced Guiche to take a step back.

Guiche tried to regain his strength before agreeing. But he couldn’t muster a word, so he just nodded.
