Shikra and Valentino are inside the library, spending almost two days on research about the cores in their body.144Please respect copyright.PENANAlO3ECJZT1s
“I think I know how we can test it!” Shikra said excitedly, “It won’t hurt, right?” she asked.144Please respect copyright.PENANAV1xHj2HA5G
“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.144Please respect copyright.PENANA3rCwGpdscg
“Okay... but if we succeed, I will owe you one. One big one,” Shikra grinned mischievously at Valentino.144Please respect copyright.PENANAJNTZ0ICwyW
So the two tested what is inscribed on the book they have collected.144Please respect copyright.PENANASQG7bihSaq
144Please respect copyright.PENANAgbWdD4sb3G
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.144Please respect copyright.PENANABoMfOviqLw

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.144Please respect copyright.PENANAQf8GDsotNC
Shikra suggested that they should go there.144Please respect copyright.PENANAZbWJdgjnT5
When they arrived in the town, both were surprised to see there are so many people here.144Please respect copyright.PENANA0p0k7CeU2u
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.144Please respect copyright.PENANAVxfFqYhiF6
“What are we going to do first?” Shikra asked Valentino as they walked around.144Please respect copyright.PENANANM7ysWjYjs
“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.144Please respect copyright.PENANAYvmwr7jy2B
"Aren't you a little excited to dance with me, Mr. Valentino Sarimiento?" she teased.144Please respect copyright.PENANAqRSuDnimpe
The conductor started tapping his baton, signaling the start of the dance.144Please respect copyright.PENANAl8uTZ52GCx
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.144Please respect copyright.PENANA8RXvLJbHQe
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.144Please respect copyright.PENANAYqXVBO73o9
"You're excellent, Mr. Valentino!" Shikra exclaimed.144Please respect copyright.PENANAYRmcnDbUYj
"Thanks," he said shyly. "Are you enjoying the festival?"144Please respect copyright.PENANACXLSdDpZ7v
Shikra nodded energetically. She pointed towards a stall where people are still handing out sweets.144Please respect copyright.PENANAfCcyH8oT05
“Do you want some? I bought some yesterday.” Shikra said as she took the candy from the vendor.144Please respect copyright.PENANAE72ktwMJbZ
Valentino looked at the treats.144Please respect copyright.PENANAXWncgkmHMs
"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.144Please respect copyright.PENANAHENGAU7Lm1
"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."144Please respect copyright.PENANAg7kSM5dp3M
144Please respect copyright.PENANAuNbvUwPeOf
Valentino smiles at Shikra's words. He takes a chocolate covered strawberry from the vendor's hand and puts it into his mouth.144Please respect copyright.PENANAC9vEwfR8Fr
"It's not as good as mine, but this is fine," he says quietly, and Shikra giggles.144Please respect copyright.PENANAybIpoUgVnL
They walk around the town and enjoy the festival.144Please respect copyright.PENANAOLl5h3kcsQ
