Siesta was blown away by what she was seeing. A white clean world with strange tasting air unlike anything she was used to. Regardless, she stepped onto a strange large platform with her dearest friends. Then it shook before sinking down, making her grab onto Dove.

Once the platform was deep enough, two sets of steel doors closed over head. Then the door before them opened revealing a very large room.

All around, the group saw things being moved about by metal arms moving on their own. Little metal golems flew about, fiddling and carrying things around the complex.

To everyone but Dove, it was strange and alien.

After saying his piece, Tech made his way over to an another platform and spread out his arms, waiting. After a second, hands and arms came out and aided in removing his armor then reassembling it on a nearby rack. They then gave him back his goggles and headphone before he came back down. But something was off, he was a little…pale.

Tech led the group to another lift which took them to another room above. Not as large as the last but it was more organized, something like a dorm room.

Dove opened the closest door and to her surprise, it had a medieval style design. Not quite the Nord design she’s used to but it’s better than everything else here.
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUEF6MtkrL

183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqF9gEihAx

Tech: “And getting branded like an animal, I might add.”
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjy4ZolAVcp
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazgykXXhMK
Flamma looked at them and wondered if she should reveal what she felt. Would they use Louise and abuse her potential? After a moment, the answer was clear to see.
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoHm4a7rBz
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rZBxEgx1X
Tech is too proud to do it, Dove has no need of it and Siesta is too sweet. But how much to tell, that’s the question.
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQngtgrjNp
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWqGFbJ7xN

183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ziiFXkFU9
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDYezi6YAy
Flamma: “Yes, Louise has Void Magic but it’s more than that. The power I sensed within her is…incredible. It’s may even surpass my power.”
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJX9r1w9zx
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Oly7efMUk

183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWI5a1Aez7

Dove: “I’d rather a sword.”
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhY8F0FayrV

Before Flamma can quip herself, a thin sheet of harden light shot out from the side of the rod.
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSkvULpqfz

Unbeknownst to everyone in Tech’s base, something had slithered in. A snake on a mission. But even Aeron had to admit that the place was well secured and impressive.
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCU9X4J3HJr
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmesK6FFJA
But it’s magical defenses were lacking and made it easier than expected to invade. At first, he was going to get in, kill Tech, and get out. But he lucked out and heard some interesting information about Louise.
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOC4EcCQqQ
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOSgRUIKkC
Aeron: ‘Her value just went up. If I’m lucky, I may even be able to steal this Void Magic for myself. But first…’
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8kxEz5HIC9
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjX59RRiu5
Aeron made sure to follow Tech to his room. The room was the cleanest he’s ever seen and was covered in soft shades of white and blue. Tech went to a strange capsule and taped on a panel with bumps. The capsule opened and Aeron saw his chance. While in his invisible snake form, he used a modified Ray of Sickness on Tech.
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIuracztzX
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3hRpnes5K
Tech slumbed forward a bit but catching himself. He shook his head before regaining his footing.
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6XXXT9Sjq
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tiF9rxd8x
Tech: “Whoa, I might need this more than I thought.”

Aeron: ‘That’s one threat dealt with.’
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRlv2lPClN
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUGfhqkM4o
Aeron slithered away with a smile while Tech got into the capsule. The poison was made slow but this way, no foul play would be suspected. Tech is sickly after all.
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgIUsms2uh
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDciEjNEGe
Thanks to a small A.I sphere named NAVI that emerged from the data pad, the maid trio learned much more about the world of Tech. And it was…a lot to process.
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIGAxNm7si

183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUag1mpYmbl
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJa74lFaeTe
Flamma: “I’m more surprised that Tech was sick like this his whole life. For him to then spit in destiny’s face and still succeed at life is badass. Even becoming whatever a CEO of Innovation Industries is sounds impressive.”

183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tYqxT6lNs

183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyA4QuuCjFX
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ850fbktIO8

183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMBQ3rGuMt
As for Siesta, she couldn’t help but feel some dread. This world was already so terrible to commoners like her. But after learning about Tech’s world, the world became so much more dangerous.
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF32rx8kHJU
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wH6Y2MU1p
What if more like Tech came here and weren’t as nice as him? What would happen to her and her friends? What if one of the nobles got a hold of this power?
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6aGxL4y2VV
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMdXWvVuEC

Jake came up from behind and unlike everyone, he could see the snake making his escape.

Jake: ‘If she won’t help me, why should I?’

Jake: “Rask, call me when you have a lead before start I losing it.”

Jake jumps over the school walls and disappears into the coming night.

Raskreia: “Such a troublesome kid. Makes me wonder what made him this way. Sorry, everyone, maybe I made mistake. False alarm.”

Zander: “Are you sure?”
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3PTAjkKLp
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymTEjKDSqx
Raskreia: “Yep. But enough of my blunder, Flamma, got a moment to talk?”
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZomIrEIfi
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTk7Q7af9Q5
Flamma: “I’m on my way to Louise, we’ll talk on the way. See you tomorrow Siesta.”
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgf6pdfsDaf

Siesta: “Have a good night Flamma.”

183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2Yy8LYtE4
Raskreia and Flamma proceeded to leave the rest of the group behind. However, despite outwardly focusing on her conversation with Flamma, she couldn’t help but think back to what she sensed before.

It was a sight that nearly drove Louise to hurl. Hanging in the air with some sort of strands keeping her afloat was her fake.
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubmO4eShOo
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsFKxITLCe
She was a mangled mess but the pink hair made it clear who it was. She wanted to destroy this mockery to herself but her sad state…stayed her hand.

Bench: “If it wasn’t for the fact that you are Louise, I would have kicked you out. But I won’t tolerate you endangering…yourself.”

183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFiHzdgGJjy
Bench: “I don’t have much time to explain but the short answer is I don’t know and it’s a long story. I have some ideas to explain the first one but they are unscientific. Right now, I just want to finish my repairs for today. I already wasted a day trying to get the local clinic to work for me and then transforming this shack into something manageable.”

Louise: “…Will she be fine?”
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffJTPLZqoZ

With nothing more to say, Louise leaves the transformed shack confused and dejected. What was really distressing was the pulling feeling she got when around her fake. As if she was being sucked into a whirlpool.
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjT8NZoa23
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZO5b7W4ao
The thought of giving into the sensation…terrifiedher. She wanted…no…needed to escape this feeling.

Louise: ‘Where’s Aeron when I need him? Learning a new spell should help get my mind off this…’

But instead of the dark star, the sun instead appeared before her.

Louise: “Flamma!”

Louise quickly regained herself and pushed down her unexpected excitement.

Raskreia: “Oh, she got it bad huh? Understandable.”

She whispers into Flamma’s ear.

Flamma: “Shush you.”
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6R4SvsXPtn

Flamma: “Don’t worry master, I was just learning somethings from my friends. I won’t leave your side for anything less.”
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5vLAfzIlb
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJtoetV5L2
Louise: “I-I-I know. It’s only natural for a familiar to be there for their master. Now, why is she is here? Is she ready to become my familiar too?”

Raskreia: “Buy me dinner first and maybe I’ll think about it.”
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xXWHrD1AV
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3JHA77VHI
That got Louise to fume red while Flamma giggled at how adorable Louise can be.
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8CW0owmCe

Raskreia: “Don’t be like that kid, I was just learning more about Flamma. Congrats by the way.”

Raskreia: “You didn’t just bond with a dragon, but apparently one that was worshiped as a Goddess long ago. Nice job!”

In the shadows of the night, Aeron was collecting himself after his brush with failure. He wasn’t scared of a fight but he’s unsure if he could win if he was revealed at that moment.
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeLT52rd5h
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmnEQZWAUE
Raskeria alone may be his equal. That’s not even counting Zander and Flamma. But Jake is interesting…
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPP2X0J00UD
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8P4pCAOIB
Aeron: ‘He noticed but didn’t do anything, interesting. Maybe he could be a good tool for later. Speaking of tools…’
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2Ca2KV3BX

He needed to step his plans up. He needed Louise firmly on his side and maybe another pawn in this game if he is to survive and win. He can’t afford to be caught now.
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7v1gpgWoIi
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTVEJt5y4B
Luckily for him, the pieces were already in place.

Guiche is probably bitter about his lose, a perfect mind to send over the edge.

Siesta was alone and vulnerable, a useful pawn and possible ally depending on how he pulls this off.
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsa3j8saea
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TXJOxDZGF
Finally, night was coming. Flamma and the other familiars should be asleep soon. It would be risky but what’s life without some form of gamble.
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4eky4VoKw
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2I5VwPU8b
Aeron casts alter self so he looks like Siesta before making his way to Guiche.
