"Mommy, why is that dy angy?" A kid a few seats away from them asked her Mother.

  And while she would love to cim that she also didn't know, she knew. "Shhh...Let's move away from the pretty dies okay."

  Nooooo, take me with youuuuuu.

  "Is everything all right Elizabeth?" The red-haired girl to her left asked.

  Rena had awakened after only thirty minutes of their arrival at the teleportation station, the girl hadn't made a fuss or anything, really. She only looked at Rossie, then at her, checked the state of her clothes, and then sat.

  On the chair o her.

  "Everything is just fine." She answered, trying not to think too much about the red-haired girl.

  Nor why she was as close as possible to her without ripping apart the chair from the floor or removing the armrests of the chair. She didn't ask where she was, what had happened, why they were at the teleportation station nor why she had her passport.

  Nothing.

  Rena was just there with a smile on her face breathing evenly as she grabbed the hem of her skirt and looked straight ahead.

  Oher hand, her girlfriend, Rossie. Was hugging her right arm, resting her head on Elizabeth's shoulder, and gring daggers at Rena. How could someone look so cute snuggling but also make one shiver from the tained bloodlust behind her gre?

  She had thought that Rossie would be okay with her resg Rena, mostly because she hadn't pined nor said anything about their pn, and a big part of it depended on Rossie taking care of Rena's body and [Soul] while she wrestled trol away from Akira.

  "Amm...Rossie? Love?" Elizabeth said trying to get her girlfriend's attention, but the pink-haired girl only tinued gring at Rena.

  So since her right hand was busy being wrung out by her girlfriend, Elizabeth thought, 'Well, that's what lefty is for!’ And tried to use her left hand.

  "*swish* * grab*" Only for a terrible vice to tto her left hand.

  "...." Rena didn't say anythiher.

  She didn't turtention from whatever point in the distance she was fog on, her eyes never wavered nor wandered anywhere. A.

  *squish*

  "Rena?" Elizabeth said turnitention to her left, each timeter she turned her head was several extra on’s of force exerted intht hand. "Do you need something?"

  "I'm fine Elizabeth." Answered the red-haired girl, not relenting for even a sed irength of her grip, her fingers interced with hers in a soft, yet firm grip.

  "..." Rossie was still gring at Rena, even though no matter who saw them, she was closer to Rossie, her hand was being crushed between the pink-haired breasts even!

  She wasn't enjoying it at all since her arm was numb from all the strength Rossie lying to her arm though. And she suspected her left hand would end like that too unless someone came to rescue her that is!

  ...Anyone?

  "Travelers with number #831, please e to reception for a st-minute check-up." The speakers called, heh. Imagine being called to s when you only want to move.

  Sucks to be them...Actually, if it was their group it could be a good way to release some tension from it...

  "...That's us Eli-Eli," Rossie mumbled on the low.

  "One of us o check it out." Rena said too, without a care in the world, then turned her head towards Rossie, "And I'm still rec from the soul damage, I seem to have trouble trolling my motor funs. Perhaps part of the healing didn't work well?"

  Good thing they weren't some weird love edy anime or manga, if not she probably would see a lighting show goiween both girls or the image of a snake and a tiger maing behind Rossie and Rena ready to pou each other.

  Of course, Rossie would be the cat, since she is adorable.

  But that wasn't the problem here! THIS WAS HER CE!

  "I will go and che what they need." She said as she funneled her shadows at the floor. What? [Skills] and [Magic] don't work here?

  Pfft, that is for people whose lives aren't at risk. When you are in danger because two highly unstable girls don't want to share you, of course, you go above and further beyond. Plus ultra!

  "Be good with each other or I will get mad at you!" Elizabeth said as she felt her body turn into shadows and ge pces with the blob of shadows that she created five meters in front of them, "Take care of the [Minions] while I'm gone!"

  And leaving a shadon for each girl she ran. Away, as fast as possible without tripping the mana sensors. She did get a few stares from those nearby as they too, tried to move their own [Mana] to make [Skills] or [Magic] work without much success.

  She had thought that it should be possible since she noticed how the [Restri] seemed to apply to mana from [The World] that most people used.

  And while her [Mana] was made, refined, and created by her [Heart] it was something that was hers alone. So she guessed that this particur restri wouldn't work for her. She had taken notice of this when Nyx was summoo the arena a few ho. How all the [Mana] had escaped from the trol of the people around the [Arena], and how Nyx had used it to impose his [Will] upon the world by using the gift from [The World] that he had.

  Would she be able to do that?

  She wasn't sure, nor did she know if she should even attempt to do something like that. What Nyx did to Akira with that power...She didn't regret it, nor thought she would do anything different, but having that kind of power... And being able to do it...

  Would she do something like that to all the people she didn't like?

  "Miss?" Someone spoke to her breaking her out of her musings, "What I help you with?"

  It was the s officer manning the desk, "Oh sorry. I'm one of the Travelers with the ticket #831." Elizabeth said while bringing the ticket from her belt pouever travel anywhere without a belt pouch! Especially if you use [Iory - Garage] to cheat and make it bigger than it should!

  "ht, we fgged you because it seems we need extra data on some of the travelers with you." The woman at s said while cheg her monitor. "Here it is...We don't have an address of residence for two of the travelers...her Miss Elizabeth Starbright nor Miss Watanabe Rena has an address."

  Well, she didn't have one because no one ever remembered or could even perceive her older house! But Rena didn't have one?

  "Sorry about that, we are orphans so our current address is the apartment we share at the MPI," Elizabeth said nontly. It was teically a lie...Since she wasn't really an orphan, it was only that her parents went through apotheosis and fot to leave her a house that anyone could remember.

  ...

  "Oh...right...here there is a note saying that...Let me...Yes, after pinging the system it does seem that you were granted a temporal reside's on Britania, Camelot. urgis Street #8001" The woman said while showing the information. It had been updated...five minutes ago. "Hmm...Oh there it is, Miss Watanabe Rena also got the update. So you share a house with a friend, that is cute."

  ...Rossie could never find out about this.

  "Yes, so was there something else you needed?" Elizabeth asked, hoping for the woman to turn the s in another dire, she didn't need Rossie to go on a murder spree because of this information.

  "Hmm? Oh no, that is all..." The woman said while writing some extra things on her PC. Then after a prompt from the monitor she added, "...No wait, we need some mana samples. Just ihe mana here."

  A small little crystal orb rose from the reception desk, it was round and crystal clear. Elizabeth pced one of her fingers on it and willed some of her mana to leak into it.

  "Hmm....Blue huh." The Woman said while reading the monitor, "A...it says you have triple elemental attu... [Shadow], [Lighting], and [Fire]. That's...some weird attu."

  ...What?

  "Is it w this thing? I know of my lighting and shadow, but fire?" Elizabeth said raisiher hand, "I don't have [Fire], if I had I could just..."

  Elizabeth said while making a blob of mana and willing it to turn into [Fire], just like she did with her [Shadows] or [Lighting], she didn't include any formue to her mana nor use any skill. Just willed the mana to morph into the element of choice.

  "Yes, that looks like fire...also how are you doing that? Are the jammers not w?" The Woman said while hitting something uhe desk, Elizabeth took this as a ce to snuff the small orb of fire that her mana had turned into. "Weird...I will o ask mainteo check the jammers, someone also pihat a girl had used some kind of space or teleport skill too...Imagine, having movement skills not blocked from nonemployees here."

  "Yeah...Imagine..." Elizabeth said while ughing too with the woman. She would remember to not do it again...Unless she was in the same spot, again.

  "Now I need your other friend's samples, you send the ohe Woman said.

  ...Yeah no...That would require her to either take one of those two a her here, or send both together, her was something she thought would end well.

  "I provide their share too," Elizabeth said while eling the mana she had from Rossie first.

  "Look here, I appreciate it, but the mae detects and matches the mana sample with what we..." The woman started saying while the mae dinged again. This time the s ged the information. "...Rossaline Singh, Healer. Attu, holy, divine, light..."

  Sounds like Rossie yes, she was, after all. Divine, her presence was holy and she was the light of her world.

  "...As for Miss Rena...?" The Woman said, ht. She hat too...Could she funnel her mana though?

  Elizabeth tried to focus on the sword or the other apartment within her [Soulscape], then with some prodding tried to ect a mana thread to one of the outlets within that apartment and fuhat mana. She, once more, felt the fiery red mana travel through her [Heart], it went from there to her hen spread across her body.

  With some effort, she fu towards her hand even as she felt her body grow [Hot], and thehe release of energy into the orb.

  "....Watanabe Rena....Swordswoman, Attu. Fire." The woman read as she filed the information that the monitor showed to her. "That is oeresting talent you have...Is it a [Skill] that lets you stockpile mana?"

  "...You could say it's something like that," Elizabeth answered as she separated her finger from the crystal sphere ahe raging mana within her body settle down. It was...[exhirating], feeling Rena's mana.

  Unlike Rossie's arm and seemed to want to hug her i, Rena's mana was like a raging storm that wao destroy everything, like an inferno released upon the world.

  "Well, that is probably how you mao mahe fireball. Si's stockpiled mana." The woman said while writing something else oation. "Here it is. Try to not use much of that stockpiled mana unless you want to get into trouble with the guardsmen."

  And like that, she was hahree tickets, they stated their mana attuo the elements and their grades. Both of the schools and the ohat stated their tier.

  Rossie with her level 35 came as: Rossaline Singh, Magical Girl - Healer [B-Tier].

  Rena with her level 40 came as: Watanabe Rena, Hero - Swordswomen [B-Tier].

  And then, her own ticket...

  Elizabeth Starbright, Magical Girl [A-Tier].

  She had been surprised at first, mostly because just after the fight against Akira she had gotten some extra levels... First for her fight, then for summoning Nyx...For summoning Aura...For summonirice...For wrestling Rena away from him.

  For stripping him of his [Hero] status...She had rewards for almost everything she did in that fight!

  And that wasn't eveing into the whole debacle with the weird gems that had e from it. She was feeling weird about those things, she was gd that they weren't near her, because if they had stayed near more time...She would probably have tried to eat them.

  And what would have e from that? She ate one simir enough from Rena whe it from Akira's soulscape. And that was enough to make the e to Rena.

  But if she ate the ohat was made from Rossie's soul fragments... Would her e to Rossie be strengthened?

  Would she get lio Michael if she ate the ohat represented him?

  "What did they need Eli-Eli?" Rossie asked as soon as she got close enough to their seats. Rossie didn't move from the spot, that was weird.

  Or so she thought till she noticed how Rena also didn't move, were they keeping each other in check or something? What was this? A couple of cats?

  ...Rossie did purr like one when they were sleeping though. Rena...Didn't look that much like a cat, she seemed closer to a dog, so would she wag her tai-

  *sp*

  "Is everything okay Elizabeth?" The do- I mean, Rena asked. Why did she ask that?

  Well, that was mostly because Elizabeth spped herself, blessedly Rossie didn't say anything and only narrowed her eyes at her, was the game up?

  "They wao firm our address for the tickets and wanted some mana signatures," Elizabeth said while the tickets to each girl.

  Rossie for her part took the ce to iwined her fingers with her hand and very slowly take her ticket as she toyed with her fingers...LOOD THIS GIRL IS TOO LOOOOOOOOD!!!!!

  Rena for her part, with the utmost care to not touch her hand or fiook the ticket and hugged it close to her chest, she almost could see her having a tail made of mana waving at her back. With cute animal ears flopping everywhere. Even while her face remaioid serious.

  It was kind of cut-

  .......ASDASDFLHSAFDLKFJASFSDF.

  NO!

  WE DON'T ENCE NTR HERE ELIZABETH STARBRIGHT!

  WE ARE LOYAL TIRLFRIEND!

  WE WILL NOT CHEAT ON HER!

  "ht, I fot to give you the address of my house so you could update your residence, what address did you give them?" Rossie said bringing her back to the world of the people who didn't cheat on their girlfriends in FRONT OF THEM.

  "Oh, that? I tried to give them the MPI apartment address, but it seems that Agatha provided us with an address in Camelot already, so I only o give them [Mana] samples." Elizabeth answered as she sat down.

  To the right of Rossie, leaving one open spot where she left her backpack resting. Not like she he thing, it was mostly a dummy luggage so people wouldn't question them about why they were traveling so light. Most of their stuff was in the [Iory - Garage] anyway.

  And Rena only had a pair of uniforms and some spare underwear, so they would o buy her new clothes. Also, Elizabeth wasn't doing her best to not think about how the imaginary tail of Rena was restiween her legs, nor how her imaginary animal ears flopped on top of her head.

  Nor how imaginary dog Rena was whimpering like an abandoned puppy.

  Totally.

  BUT SACRIFICES WERE TO BE MADE.

  Especially since Rossie seemed to perk a little at this obvious decration of how she was the favorite of the two. Not like there was mueed to state the obvious, but Rossie was obviously angry at the addition of Rena to their circle.

  She would o address that, but sihey were traveling to Rossie's house... ht, they were traveling to Rossie's home. And in the rush of all of it, she had brought Rena...

  "Do we o go and give a sample then?" Rena asked from the other side, turning her head and staring at her, through Rossie...The girl was fearless if nothing else.

  "No, I already gave them samples of all of our mana. Since you two are ected to my [Soulscape] I funnel your mana in my body." Elizabeth answered.

  She didn't eborate more on that e, not in public at least.

  "...You funnel [Both] our mana?" Rossie asked.

  ....should have probably worded that better.

  "That is a ve use of this [Link]," Rena said raising her hand above her chest and [SOMEHOW] materializing a rope of mana that seemed to be visible to only them, as no one else reacted. "Was w why I felt so well and warm. So is this how you did it?"

  Rossie was staring at Rena's rope, then towards Elizabeth's chest, and how a small red sigil seemed to ma above her chest. Red in color too.

  Then frowning the pink-haired girl raised her hand above her chest and tried to do the same, to no effect.

  "Was this how you...[helped me]?" The red-haired girl asked her, ign Rossie's attempts at doing the same.

  How had she dohat anyway? Not even Elizabeth could do that.

  "...Yes...I tried to get you free, but...Actually, we better speak of this in a more private setting." Elizabeth said this was something way too important to speak in publi a pce where she was half sure they were monit them.

  "Were? You two will travel to [Camelot] to Rossaline's house. I have no house to stay there, so I will not be able to have a private pce to discuss this. Should I wait until our third year at the MPI then?" Rena said.

  Right...she half hoped that the girl had a pce to stay there too.

  "You will stay at the Singh resideh us. We discuss important matters at my home... Such as what is expected of you...And what your pce is... And what your retionship with Eli-Eli will be." Rossie said with her hand gripping hard her breast as if she wao cw out the that symbolized their link.

  And while Elizabeth was thinking something along the lines of 'Rossie...please...don't rip them out...they are adorable (even if small).' She didn't say anything.

  "...I see. I'm thankful for your sideration Rossaline." Rena said letting go of the mana rope that was ing from her chest. "...Also I apologize for all my bad manners so far. While it is no excuse the fact that I wasn't in full trol of my body, mind, or [Soul]. I am sorry."

  ...It was so weird seeing Rena apologize since she had been quite...stuck up so far, even ht hostile to them.

  "It's fine. I would have been er if that had happeo me too. 't imagine having someone I don't [Love] toying with my body, soul, and mind like that. So it's okay, even if you aren't [Pure] anymore. Eli-Eli is magnanimous." Rossie said with a mog tone.

  *sp*

  "ROSSALINE SINGH!" Elizabeth said as she felt the sting of her hand, "There are things that are okay to say, but that isn't one."

  Rossie turo look at her with her usually cute and inquisitive eyes, only this time, there wasn't any aspect of warmth that she had beeo. Instead what turo her were empty eyes.

  That wasn't right.

  "Apologize." It hurt her, seeing her lovely and bright Rossie like that, but she o set things straight. "I know you don't like Rena, and that this was mostly my problem and I dumped it on you... But Rena is a victim of this too."

  "See?" Rossie said turning to Rena, "Even though she loves me, she is willing to get angry at me because I'm mog your pain. She still sees the best in me and is angry because I'm bringing things that obviously aren't your fault."

  What?

  "So if you take advantage of her. Or make her suffer. I will make you [Wish for death]." Rossie said to Rena, ign Elizabeth who stood there with tears in her eyes.

  "That is fair. But I will return those words back to you. Should I notice you toying with her feelings or making her suffer. I will cut you down." Rena answered back, she almost could see the outline of a ripple in space as Rena's sword seemed to want to ma in the real world. "And unlike you. I fun like a human being even while only a fragment of my soul remains."

  What?

  "Deal," Rossie said as both girls shook hands.

  "What?" Elizabeth said as both girls seemed to have e to an agreement.

  "So what is on our schedule Eli-Eli?" Rossie said turning to her, the empty and cold eyes o be seen, instead Rossie's eyes had returo normal.

  "...I'm going to sleep and che the notifications I have pending," Elizabeth said moving the backpack that was in the middle of both girls.

  She was angry that she had been used by her girlfriend to reassure Rena but was happy because they seemed to have e to an agreement. So how to deal with her cheeky girlfriend?

  "Don't wake me up before it's time to leave." She decided that she would reward herself (And maybe both girls) at the same time!

  How?

  First, she rested her head on her girlfriend's thighs, it was a nid fy spot with an awesome view, as for her legs?

  She rested them atop the red-haired thighs, she was sleeping using her girlfriend as a pillow and her pet as a resting stool for her legs!

  Yes, she was winning in life. Anyone who said otherwise was wrong!

  Befoing to sleep (And her [Soulscape]) she felt like she had crossed a line of thought that she didn't want to cross, but she wasn't sure what it robably it wasn't something important anyway.
