Morning came far too early for Louise. Her body attempted to yawn but instead she got a headache and cough instead.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrUZ8v0tTz
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9ZSCBhz6G
Louise: ‘What…happened? Why do I feel so…empty.’
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHFnvKzJdh
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwigTRaQlu9
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2s2T2iUQT
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkh7qyAUTPT
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBrUKEd8P5
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJY1BTjh6N0
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93Nr2to2TK
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzwzbi0yAT
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqiyK4nTlfK
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHle8D3YSIu
She won’t be found lacking in front of her familiar, even if she is asleep.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1piDWh7oy
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUZ0AXXGtu
Louise: ‘Wait…familiar…’
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dMaT2rRDR
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvrmbBozdT
The thought of summoning not one but seven familiars eases her headache and feeling of emptiness.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWILCQTEJ0
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2BLyeHAfy
Louise: ‘I did it! But no, I didn’t finish the bonding ritual. I need to finish it otherwise it won’t count!’
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNRg5RruW2
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhf7fn0QHN
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNKesaiY8i
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrMpEFl1cG
Louise: ‘Is it because of that fake me I saw? Did she do something to me?! When I get my hands on her…’
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2tqfLniiR
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEKljWrowK
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGZYQo6HIY
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAcCKL3aTz
Louise: “Rise and shine, familiar! You have a job to do!”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtzVBzb83h
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqcSuna7RT
Her familiar tossed and turned on the hay before opening her eyes.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzfy0zFETv
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4MhW7q1S3
Flamma: “Morning already. Shame, I was having the best dream.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgPCElEsKh
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXbSyvctEB
She said weakly before recognizing the voice that spoke.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMeqWb2hF3
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjbU453pvo
Flamma: “Louise! Are you alright?!”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimiEExCBBx
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrl4CW075j4
Flamma quickly got up and rushed to Louise’s side.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6T0MEWchE
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrCfAEI1tR
Louise: “Of course, it will take more than whatever that faker did to slow me down.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAA0WiCx2J
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCK4IQCHfOB
She says while using all of her strength to just stand up.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTnUNeWvNY
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Gie9AMCvO
Flamma: “Are you sure?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOiflvYPEt
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNi7fPi6g4R
Louise: “Yes! Now, we need to finish the bonding spell so can really become my familiar.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUBHOvmsyb
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfljYK35Av
Flamma: “Well, if you have the strength.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKNqj9BRqw
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3oH3ckVbGu
Louise: “Good, now bring me my wand so we can do this.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhxQ0Bd8kQ
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODR4S7Ubs5
Flamma quickly retrieved her wand and gave it to Louise.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXaZdB0ZhD
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCv2ZBT7znR
Louise: “Kneel.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFtLJWR0eX
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUNNmFbBGp
Flamma: “Excuse me?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUTWwc9vCS
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIu7AjF5hVZ
Louise: “Kneel so I can complete the spell!”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCXQTXckEf
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SlcFNZY7D
Flamma took a few moments before doing as Louise commanded. Louise then placed her wand on Flamma’s forehead before chanting.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6y6qWeq2Q
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnr5sxABEx8
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.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2FHEPLSIM
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqDtAKfTrS
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQYBbW0Jtu
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUFau9xMzK
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…
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWhk8OlTYa
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9b7Y2Y6fV
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?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7kiYjSy9v
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSiyWMzyJIz
She wondered with amusement as Louise's plush lips made contact with her own.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7pbJb5gB7
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBTifGkHoa
Flamma: ‘Yup, it’s her first time. Makes me wonder if Dovah ever kissed a girl. Or would be willing to…’
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4jo73doR6
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGYMJ3H6lk
Louise pulled away with a slight blush before Flamma made her thoughts known.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz93DNUMLF7
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbfKllytJR
Flamma: “First kiss?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lv8zAF01t
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6SQik77f5Z
Louise: “S-Shut up, familiar!”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLak8aiFR4
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhi57sgRCx5
Flamma: “I have a name Louise. It’s Aeterna Flamma.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GB1GM82pT
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkcYHGrBW9
Louise: “Whatever, now we have to brand the rest of those disobedient famili-”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KyLTB5ZAd
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKGJBAdCcx
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHJ3jLjEBY
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2tdE6q1ku
Flamma: “I don’t think you have the strength to brand anyone. And what do you mean by brand anyway?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡku5b85zigH
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDmL0uSwFQ
Pain.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6dwyIILO9
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGShDt7xhtJ
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMNHjGKktn
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtvtZDuZZP
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUhIjwBtbh
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6RpL8gDBw
Flamma: ‘Damn, should getting a familiar binding rune really hurt that much?!’
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Cny0fmLMD
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBlaB5bIB7
Louise: “Let me…go.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjszQZglafN
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tlJc5zdzA
Flamma: “No can do. You are clearly too weak to-”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1URIRh4UEF
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iyIVCjEaV
Louise: “I’m NOT weak!”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMC3iykUeEX
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWdkRReiyc
Flamma: “Louise, you could barely stand.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3UqaKz5E89
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNNkXQAM01
Louise: “I just need a moment, that’s all.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCH56lKjUFh
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdyY52nLjF
Flamma: “Well, you can have that moment on the bed.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdWJiZJAZl
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gn76BcoNZ
She says as she deposits Louise onto the bed.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8g43rFdims
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxd2wyIrd8U
Flamma: “I’ll stay with you until you can stand again.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5yAmA11iJ
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcopYTYvsa
Louise: “As you should. A familiar should protect their master.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2laGZaPgb4
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjV1XvdVSj
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2JYE25pXo
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7MYkA4965
Louise: “Tell me…what happened while I was out.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNUHTbbjhR
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbT1eof8JB
Flamma smiled before replying.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPPOVOhG6t
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6MlGWnI3t
Flamma: “Well, I have a story for you.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkq7XfdHay
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJeCKHNDSJ
Colbert: “Is he any better?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjz9xhy4lI
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMnjxDEghL
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?
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4209660di
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMdsJnOqcG
“Better we think.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4R1QqJpEMG
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSTcyyBbsO
Colbert: “Think?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EEHE3vkPj
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fRrnmbCUw
“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…”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8qkRFbBHb
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtx13bHsQkW
Colbert: “But what?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gbg2K0ZZL
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggT0Yl8v0T
“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.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Do1NI5Srw
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCSt5j5UJB
Colbert: “That was a smart decision. He seems to be like Louise 2, beyond what we can understand. Maybe I can ask Bench to-”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxASMT2U8P
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJI0yPIRmuM
Before he could finish that thought, a nurse opened the door in a panic.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fZpVG5Uur
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQc2deClHq
“He’s awake, and having trouble breathing! He says to get his bag!”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xjLqxsQw0
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95aI5A7dFc
Colbert: “Where’s his bag!”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HthLBQvmD
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzhNu5JqcSd
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKTnA1ATk5
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OISxYU2s8
When Colbert rushed to give the bag to the boy, he desperately pointed to the bag.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvFDYphmkF
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWzlmLr6OD
Colbert: “What? What should I do?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qFaHwUHp6
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ735C2dlH4Q
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnMni7iEXm
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0kZfgZAKW
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2j8YdKtvxb
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZE1v3MkF4
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCFjN4HMp5
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhgAsup4KH
After a minute of breathing, he sat himself up.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZ53SwHbdz
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxrWNp4tYV
Colbert: “Are you alright?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxt7sb9GXI
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PreCSqgxq
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ulhNXnfoc
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6icz00SHK
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOQFkwQx7H

“Thanks, I was almost a goner.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLuVa2CDr2
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRiZA6Nhmh
Colbert: “Happy to help. Are you alright?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgqJcJXF7U
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6H3YT5Svg9
“Yeah, for now.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9eGpwEYyvG
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjGp15XTDd
Colbert: “Can we have your name?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmapIYEvu22
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd84EZfMEkK
Tech: “Name’s Tech, now my turn. Where am I?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCXBcmnDcy
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBa7Fla7OUb
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.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUtEh36N1H
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJbSGHGwfm
Tech looked at Colbert like he was crazy.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaE2xKnyKGv
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDdvnDfYUp
Tech: “Magic? Puh-leez, no such thing.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0Kk3GufZI
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmM8wOLcKj
He said as if that was a universally understood fact. Colbert, to prove magic does exist, created fire from nothing. Tech was not impressed.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RUHQUANtX
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXk0B1oBYM
Tech: “For all I know you’re using a holoprojector. Try doing something more impossible.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cPP8ZoCgN
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlyIzN3mut
Colbert tried levitation.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQW00wGR7qE
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYMZrxsPFo
Tech: “Anti-gravity disks or even strings and wires.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcPsmiiJ2x
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6CwA6Ycqd
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqKII2NZNA
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKR7GNmsmIg
Tech: “Okay, enough fake and tell. How did I get here?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0p5VGhYa8S
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUqdUo9KxR
Colbert: “You were summoned by Louise as her familiar. One of seven, something that has never happened before.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0grAEGdseP
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGuPs4uWHzw
Tech: “Summoned? Can you send me back?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSMa3WlXqW
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlCCy3PxBn
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.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8F8VWQxjX7
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88pUW0hj3u
Tech: “Great, another loony. Where is she?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrn00XsVVdk
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtijRlMyEhN
Colbert: “We’re not sure. She used a portal to go back to her own world.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGasgTSITMr
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrn6eCQ52W3
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?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrhoTntEPQ
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOG6UxvFAm
Colbert then proceeded to explain to him the familiar system.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdOr0ZhzBm
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5LS338XHK
Tech: “Hell no! I’m not being anyone’s slave. The one chick that agreed must have been desperate or stupid.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaV4CZasDG
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCx90MOJkIU
Colbert: “Well, since Louise already has a familiar we won’t force you.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HixZGdcKM

486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Cgi4WEIY5
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNkM4rJZGA

486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzjbaffmUk
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBStKoz4uO
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.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1y5cuIIYf
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5AMSapidG
Colbert: “Understandable.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSvCwHWfq0

486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yTYFGhG44
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1M8IwZfv5U
Colbert: “Alright, let’s give him some space everyone.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7gpJUo5HQ

Colbert and all non-essential workers left Tech to his business.

Dovahkiin blinked blearily after being shaken by a gentle but firm hand. Dovahkiin fully opened her eyes to see the sun through the clouds.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukM8dgAEKi
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKUZ12zXFx
Dovahkiin: ‘Morning already. Or is it afternoon?’
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakPvMzjaKo
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpw6VWGvLt
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdi0G0f6iK

Dovahkiin: ‘I guess the disguise worked.’

486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbv9xAzhTI
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.

486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCVgLpLm5v
Siesta: “Lay out the rolls of dough so I can get them flattened out.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5ZfcH3fPG
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR95r4R5hvb
Dove: “Got it.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40DEBzy6cw
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxezGPFL2ag
Dove got to work alongside Siesta and even got into a comfortable rhythm. That gave Dove a chance to ask a question.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNbGEha0ji
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQl3Yt9g41
Dove: “Hey Siesta?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNB9odAJ4B9
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1JI4TYm8n
Siesta: “Yes?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubercqKJjH
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbP9bM2vDH
Dove: “Is the academy hiring anyone? Maybe an assistant Chef?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaJYmLyqea
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvoF9FJA0J
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?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlGwuMX2wK
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUF59FvWqF
Dove: “Yes, me.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgzFbOZ6Dq
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHMOMqF3um
Siesta blinked and looked up at Dove.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPUF2odPza
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNYX5YT7ox
Siesta: “What do you mean? You’re already a maid.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlyjeYGEQx
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSXEMOqgB2
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.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFmyDdnnjg
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdR9L8xdBOk
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKZdrvfhTa
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVKVMSc6z7
Dove: “Was what I said wrong? S-Should I leave?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJlgFLWVN0
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Kam7N8ns3
Siesta finally blinked and shook her head.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlPaqgP4sx
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeLvuwbYdx
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.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJh4kGrYsU
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYtc6AUJs0
Dove smiled gently before giving a reply.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDpzyUPHzO
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjYkiGfX7Z
Dove: “So, do you think I could get the job if I ask for it?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡym6LoYGuiP
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPID2gjCXVs
Siesta: “Yes, I think that you could get the job.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9xoKmzFKC
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIBcHIDWbn
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-?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrLikVuwtE
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXL2A8hCMa
Siesta: “You should ask right afterwards, while the rest of us are delivering the pies. You should have time then.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrZjONh1yu
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8JAmmeI1u3
Dove: “Got it.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavYOWaIpBK

Flamma: “Well, who do we have here?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXbO9Iaijj
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgXJN6ewzJ
From behind the two came Flamma, standing out easily with her red hair and unbeatable curves.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXARx2QvGV
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnykuks7Is2
Siesta: “Hello Miss Flamma.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVBzLya2PB
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBUPF4XP7b
Flamma: “Please, no miss Siesta. Thanks again for helping me bring food to Louise’s room.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpsEAaXO1h
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWHmxc8PrD
Siesta: “It was no problem. I hope she gets better.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOruum2SX5
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJmEVniyib
Flamma: “As do I. Now, who is this lovely lady.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmV6ZFffhB
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjNHN2xAPt
Siesta: “This is Dove, soon-to-be assistant Chef.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWiTIWQOn9k

Flamma: “Oh really?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslhBE0DzMO

She says with a smirk.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnmT7KmZgF
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ681fvlhavS
Flamma: “Mind if I borrow her for a moment Siesta? I would like to get to know my future co-worker.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hT3uALbTE
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcb6k6Ti9o
Siesta: “Don’t be too long.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoVFWEtsyO

Flamma: “I won’t.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCgvInw4HF
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrk1IiEi2tD
Before Dove could protest, Flamma grabbed her arm and dragged her to someplace more secluded.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7DcBi8TXC
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5oaSyNinP
Once there, Flamma whispered into Dove’s ear.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQqNfdh2bR
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJc32szio2
Flamma: “Dove is it? Should I take you adopting the pet name I gave you as a sign you play for the other team?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9f7tzZY4vP
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRP2fJO3hQ6
Dove: “No, you should not take that as a sign. It was a good name so I used it. That’s all.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkH0aqH09Kp
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSK2HPZcAZK
Flamma: “So you say.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklZJ4uZXiV
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhi5aQAqFb
Dove: “Anyway, why are you here anyway? Shouldn’t you be working someplace else?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAN6pFUeZv
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QIaX55V0e
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.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcWirWiKHG
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvm0pV7IJ6X
Dove: “As long as you don’t flirt with me while working.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHGQETLOpo
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYICAU9Dj5
Flamma: “Off the job is fine then?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dPUatuFbn
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRZjZESz2X
Dove sighed before trying to redirect the conversation to someone else.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUHJmAPxQ0
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktNXiMwMJ3
Dove: “I thought you were pairing me with Zander?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeFl6FXVi6
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOd5Q5S5sr8
Flamma: “That was before a certain ebony beauty got the hots for him.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLvwgKRFwS
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNV4hTZM4a
Dove: “…What?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZH24ufsjd
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9eTFezt8dO
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORyAyB2mtq
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKw96mLNmX
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ422FwzmfAH
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjVReHvBmi
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.’
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafHEseyJlO
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFb9oNqqi4
Aside from moments like that, all was well in the world. That was until a tall and seductive ebony woman approached.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJLj9MAKln
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaIEEiCJ5R
Zander: ‘Oh, here we go again.’
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8DNzBkpbx
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhv5xaRX0Fy
Kirche: “Good afternoon.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdQyZHRTMu
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmsEDMMaOg
Zander: “Hello, good afternoon. Is there something you need?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHvBoQmqBZ
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzId2rqWGil
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.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVwhQNrvQU
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yWh1e5jlq
Zander looked behind Kirche and noticed the blue-haired girl reading a book while holding a staff larger than her small frame.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZ7Q88NtVq
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92DCkevEYq
Zander: “I am Zander. Likewise.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkaKu4d1vr
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRN0leacSV
Kirche: “So the talk of the school is that one of Louise’s summons was a noble. More than that, a prince.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTJiOczoIg
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUU8pc8gYA
Zander chuckled before answering.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgMfNdAJl4
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJAHUVh1mF
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.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1gWDVJKCp
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34nrzwXbF5
Zander frowned before continuing.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYalI3KTX0
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYudJrPIE4
Zander: “I guess I’m more of a king consort than a prince. Even if we’re not married.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRSPc0HqlS
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9OHjMy6A0
Kirche: “Colleagues? You mean the female summons?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBPAlsmaen
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUh9mqFHgO
Zander: “Oh no, I mean the priestesses of my home.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdm3NaEuVF8
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJyg8aAQ4v
Kirche: “Priestesses?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU25DJGhI3o
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtmPPZZqBJ
Zander: “Well, they’re more or less like queens.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jbCCLCmRB
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwQsC4FPhM
Kirche eyes bulged with lust, imagining a future where she is one of these queens.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHr7c2KiSyh
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSOHE0V0Sv
Kirche: “Queens you say. I would love to know more, how about over dessert? Are you hungry?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xFhL28pH2
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBBigFlUyX
Zander: “…A little.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdBWKlfvE1
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VsB7AR3HU
Kirche: “Great, follow me to the outside dining area. Dessert should be arriving shortly. Tabitha, come.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkoUvs1NFY
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXVSlR0TEM
As the trio walked to their seats, Kirche started with her questions.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5xr7rF3nx
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3iBJhC1hS0
Kirche: “Your Majesty, If I may be so bold-”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzluMAEi8Nk
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyat9Zkpyx
Zander: “Zander is fine.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrk2Fnjgdle
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVeHod9hf4
Kirche: “Then, Zander, if I may be so bold, how many queens do you have?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGaft43VJu
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVy7ae320K
Zander: “If you’re asking what I think you’re asking, then none. We’re not in that kind of relationship.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlyBEdqeCA
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxCw9atRef
Kirche: “Then how does one find himself the king consort of several queens?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorulmrhSiq
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TuUY8Pigq
Zander: “From where I’m from, few men can perform magic.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2Ch0c1d7C
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkWgyaq8xQ
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49Id441hxQ
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0j0Zd1K3I0
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.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKNafijNU1
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQP8V2hjfp3
Kirche: “Such as?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwgqQDvWZWs
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEZacbJrqX
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.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOirO7GoKn
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfr3H5uqel
Kirche: “And what did you do?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3o2SscScfj
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFi6kfhIGI9
Zander smiled bitterly, recalling old memories through glazed eyes.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNC7b0K40Nz
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbKcAgj2ez
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…”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOArFncfSN
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTE5ZNCX3xq
Zander sighed before ending his list of accomplishments.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqDiV1JoPR
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRKpPLPjZQ
Zander: “I founded immortality.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCY85X8jdZ
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhiBJh4k3S
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42j5WG4ERa
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6Tg3KLMgt
Kirche: “W-What do you just say?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvURZ4Hadyg
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRsZORB8ZB
Zander: “I was busy and I’m not eager to meet the Gods.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64FPgMNfiL
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKTbDa9bgN
Kirche: “But immortality?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuiofKnbgA
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIKWpRv12Q
Zander: “I’m 756 years old.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEP83hsw891
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxiAgUEx4g
Tabitha: “Old.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AqQgOFYwJ
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd54frAFphX
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.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjs4jbPBmu
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsvhYx5O8M
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.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvXjYq7Mzu
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtw8TIci6R
Kirche: “Sacrificing the queens?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jCdwZ1K4G
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3nG3AhGKf
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.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3ZMgwscjM
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcrglNtAMK
Kirche: “How romantic. Facing Gods to spend eternity with your beloved.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARE2TUu0iu
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8ReFfxT5z
Zander: “I look after my-”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYrk6zkFWI

“Would anyone like some pie!?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHkzfdpqHKQ
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfBhdI0PsZ
The trio were surprised by the voices of the maids nearby. Turning they saw a trio of maids.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeAzhYcfdf
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8PVepbsMk
One a common sight around the academy, black-haired and sweet, Siesta.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9R4qchz0p
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlJQXuC90m
One a recent sight around the academy, red-haired and Louise’s familiar, Flamma.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡysD76VJN28
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oLDlc4Nta
Between those 2 was a completely new face, one that was gunning for the table where Zander and Kirche were.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAreZzqfIz
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQySwlGsz6l
Dove: “Would any of you like some Cherry Pie? I made it myself.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDzgYSkpSg
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNs7MAxabQ6
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fclfKqggc
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMTLv2vz3E
Tabitha: “Please.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGfnUBqflN
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSLQ2D6xsb
Dove: “I’m sorry, what do you mean?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWqzSvlhIp
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAA7XjVyWO5
Tabitha: “Pie.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmWKjO02X9

Dove: “Oh, sorry I didn’t understand you.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjQD8q4EKY
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0tFSAhZAA
Tabitha took the offered pie and started eating. IT WAS DELICIOUS! Tabitha quickly finished it, immediately asking for seconds.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxkJUouyN4
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BQlvd2uM8
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CDGHJkp37

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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqmOLlDIgg
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawigGUgexn
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLB1AJhQMAA
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYB9McqMta2
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZr02P0FQf
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZhngoyZq2
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTkQoCIHry5
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wN23R3fg1
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoF8gETsnZR
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXq9GWpk8B1
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNx4jSjUKk
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IFao14KFL
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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJLgwxzWyg
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLn8U4hnoA
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.

486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaZAU54iEW
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?”

“Now that I look at it, yeah, isn’t that what she uses every time she walks into class?”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCAb5moHkf
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10KKJGmvwG
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.

Montmorency: “Guiche, who is this?”

486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBB5jr2wBq
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0XqyL4jpH
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.

Before Tech can give a witty comeback, Flamma and Dove come to stand beside him.

Flamma: “He said no or are you hard of hearing?”

Dove: “Not only that, he probably has difficultly thinking too. Why else would he blame Siesta? Those two girls were crying because of what you did, making this your fault.”

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.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqS61uiO64

Tech and Flamma couldn’t help but laugh at that. While Dove only further narrowed her eyes.

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…

Siesta goes to help him but Guiche made another gambit to save his image.

Guiche: “A-A prince?”

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

486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWWgwI8svU
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.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAONcNMbiu

Now that Tech is in a better position, he regained the floor with his next words.
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vaoHj7Ljx
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPirDMhY7f
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.”
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRdTUNr3hi
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZdKELBUH8
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.

486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rEjXRyH1x
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0ygGJOVfG
Guiche tried to regain his strength before agreeing. But he couldn’t muster a word, so he just nodded.

Tech: “Great. Siesta, could you help me to the nurse’s office? I need to do some more repairs to my systems. Dove and Flamma, you should come to. If we’re fighting together, I should make sure you don’t slow me down.”
