Shikra and Valentino are inside the library, spending almost two days on research about the cores in their body.817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4In4yUWxG
“I think I know how we can test it!” Shikra said excitedly, “It won’t hurt, right?” she asked.817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJIqurTr7G
“Not at all! Why do you think I was researching about them?” Valentino replied, “We need to be careful though because we don’t want to use it too soon. Not until we have more knowledge about what this power does to the core itself,” Valentino explained.817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSlnPkbQLm
“Okay... but if we succeed, I will owe you one. One big one,” Shikra grinned mischievously at Valentino.817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jcpn4t3J1
So the two tested what is inscribed on the book they have collected.817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpRqE3li2q
817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHeOBbwAlT
It said that when you want to directly manipulate Magika towards your core, you need to force it out of your body. The two did it, and they are successful, with minor issue of exhaustion.817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbEOuEB62Z

After minutes of practicing, Shikra got reminded about a certain festival at their place called Rose Quartz. It is a festival where they dance along with the music together with their partners.817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDemQYM8NVj
Shikra suggested that they should go there.817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfBySe7WLg
When they arrived in the town, both were surprised to see there are so many people here.817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DYXm5IGv6
There is a small stage near the center of the village. There are also many stalls selling food and drinks, as well as dancing partners.817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ230skd5lfP
“What are we going to do first?” Shikra asked Valentino as they walked around.817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwzDHIuI8e
“Well, I guess we could start with our usual tradition,” Val said, and then grabbed Shikra by the hand and pulled her into the dance.817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa19sUBwFO1
"Aren't you a little excited to dance with me, Mr. Valentino Sarimiento?" she teased.817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSokPBeJ7E
The conductor started tapping his baton, signaling the start of the dance.817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhIRSHJ5iH
Valentino didn't respond to Shikra's teasing. He just kept smiling while watching how beautifully Shikra danced. Her moves are precise and graceful like always. They keep moving to the beat of the music. Gracefully responding to each other's movements and carefully guiding each other to the next step on the dance. They are like swans in a glistening lake.817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgeMUDO42J9
They keep dancing until they reached the end of the song. Valentino let go of Shikra’s hands and smiled proudly at his work. He turned his head to look at her, only to find her smiling widely back at him.817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYQDuHrb2Q
"You're excellent, Mr. Valentino!" Shikra exclaimed.817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnbEXVoyOL
"Thanks," he said shyly. "Are you enjoying the festival?"817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPpsDD5t8V
Shikra nodded energetically. She pointed towards a stall where people are still handing out sweets.817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYF6daOKXPv
“Do you want some? I bought some yesterday.” Shikra said as she took the candy from the vendor.817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe64PBeUysf
Valentino looked at the treats.817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TrIQf9bE2
"Can we stay for a bit longer in here, Shikra. I'm... enjoying the festival," he whispers at Shikra with a hint of stagger in his voice.817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaQ8BZSNI9
"Of course we can! Nobody's stopping us. And besides, best friends do things together, especially when they are enjoying the company," she said as she offered the treat in front of his face. "I will always be with you, no matter what happened."817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNXLPPCIeZ
817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8UZ1VwU8z
Valentino smiles at Shikra's words. He takes a chocolate covered strawberry from the vendor's hand and puts it into his mouth.817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYt7msSQH3
"It's not as good as mine, but this is fine," he says quietly, and Shikra giggles.817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTvOUNrhDV
They walk around the town and enjoy the festival.817Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6X9plPWKLA
