"I suggest we act in the nights." Akane said while eating her pancakes, "don't speak while eating!" Senov said scolding her, "the main problem is. It'll be hard to find the caster." Akane said placing down her plate of pancakes. "When did you know that, Theresa's life in danger?" She ask her gaze menacing them.
"Ah, right. Ashley tell us that. She and Zeolite meet someone named Commander D. From what she tells, Commander D tells them that her life is in danger." Hector said explaining to them, "mhm, stop there. Commander D huh?..." Akane said, she seems to lost in thoughts. "Oi, don't spaces out!" Senov said shaking her shoulder a bit.
A knock was heard on Theresa's door. "Wait a seconds!" Theresa said hurriedly goes to the door. When she open it, there stood Brittany. "Um, what do you need Brittany?" Theresa ask, "can I talk to you?" Brittany ask smiling, "s-sure." Theresa said a little nervous, since Brittany seems to always hates her. "Wonderful!" Brittany smiles, Theresa then let her go in, a wicked smiles forms on Brittany faces when Theresa not looking.
"Wow, this kid does make this looks more fun than before." Xander said amazed, "I should probably try to recruit her later~" he said happily.
"…Hm? What hours now?" Ashley yawn waking up from her sleep, she look at the couch in front of her to see Celine sleeping peacefully there. "Theresa…Theresa!" She quickly goes upstairs to check on Theresa, but she was nowhere in her room. "She probably go home already…I should check on her." Ashley said, she goes to the bathroom to take a bath then get dress.
"Now, go fetch Ashley to tell us where the shop is." Akane said standing up, "right, we'll be back." Zeolite said bowing a little, as Hector does the same. "Return by afternoon. We'll start the plan afternoon." Akane said crossing her arms.
Ashley is about to knock on Theresa's door, but stop when she hears Theresa talking with someone inside, "Who?..." She ask herself, she peeked trough the window and see Theresa talking with Brittany, "that woman! What does she planning?" Ashley bit her lips, getting worried. 'I shouldn't barge in. That's makes Theresa worried. I should wait until that woman go out by herself…' She thoughts sitting down. 'But it's also a bad thing to leave these two…what to do?' She thoughts panicking.
"Did Hector and Zeolite talks to you?" Master Fang ask sipping on his drink, "Yes, these kind of magic is troublesome." Akane said annoyed, "have you know where the caster is?" Master Fang ask, "Not sure. But Senov can locate them well. What I concerns about is…Xander. He's here." Akane said his words echoing in her head. "Xander? He's a huge problem…" Master Fang muttered frowning, "He is. His magic is annoying." Akane said leaning on the wall. "if things go wrong. Please don't hesitate to call me there." Master Fang smile, "hmph, I don't need your help, rest assured, we got this." Akane said smugly, "be careful then." Master Fang remind, "no promises. I can accidentally destroy the city." Akane said grinning. "Please pay the bills then…I don't want miss Asagi to come here again…" Master Fang said sadly. "Asagi? I can handle that girl. I won't let her disband the guild." Akane smirk before exiting the room.
"Theresa. Did you know what your friends is doing this week?" Brittany ask a mischievous smiles on her face, "I…I'm not sure." Theresa said looking down, "aww, they didn't tell you? My, my what a bad friends." Brittany snickered, a hint of pity in her voice…or mocking. "B-But I'm sure it's a good thing! It's bad for having a bad thoughts!" Theresa smiles trying to erase her worries. "Are you sure? Hector and Zeolite hadn't talk to you right?" Brittany ask leaning onto the couch.
"T-They must be busy about something!" Theresa said trying to laugh it off. "What if I say…they hate you?" Brittany ask smiling devilishly. These words hit Ashley like a truck, "I…" Theresa tries to answer but not even a word come out from her mouth. "I happened to overheard a couple of things before. They were talking with the Master." Brittany said, happiness fills her heart, she can't wait for the things to happen.
"W-What? Master?" Theresa ask trying to control her emotions. "Yes! The master! Ehem. So I've heard, that something, will make you…die." Brittany said the last word with malice. Theresa widened her eyes, shivering slightly, "what? Pardon?" Theresa ask her voice cracked. "My, my, you're voice cracked, how cute." Brittany giggles, Theresa shivers when she hears her giggles.
"Well, my times done. Let see if I can see you again tomorrow~" Brittany said walking towards the door leaving the frozen Theresa behind. When Brittany leaves, Ashley quickly goes in from the window. "Theresa! Did something happened?" Ashley ask worried, she didn't hear their conversation well, Brittany probably aware of her presence. Brittany is good with Realm Magic.
Realm Magic is a kind of magic that works likes example, only the people in the room can speak and hear each other conversation. While people on the outside can't hear what they says. It's really like speaking in the middle of empty realm with a lone room. And you are inside. The people outside can see them, but can't hear them. You can still read their lips movement, but Ashley here, is suck on lip reading.
"Ashley…did you hates me?" Theresa ask looking up at her, tears slides down her eyes. Ashley widened her eyes, "No! What kind of nonsense your talking about? Please calm down!" Ashley said panicking, "H-How about them?" Theresa ask sniffing, "Hector? Zeolite? They did not! We all don't! What kind of nonsense that b*tch tell you? Don't trust her!" Ashley said hugging her, while patting her back to calm her down.
"S-She said…I will die…" Theresa said her voice muffled by Ashley's shoulder, "die? What an absolute nonsense! We won't let you die! If you're going to die, we're gonna fight the fate itself!" Ashley said comforting her. "I guess you're right…" Theresa sniffles smiling. "There, there! Cheer up!" Ashley grinned looking at Theresa saddened face.
The door was kicked open, "did something happened?!" Hector shout worries filled is voice, Arkus sit on his shoulder with a look of worries in his face, behind him is Zeolite holding his sword. "Theresa?" Hector ask mouth agape looking at her sad face.
