"So let me summarize what you said to us" Djeeta said to Richard.
"You accidentally bumped into a woman..."
"Then when you wanted to apologize to her, you fell in love with her..." Lyria continued Djeeta's words.
"But when you wanted to ask her name, she had already disappeared because you were too busy staring at her beautiful face..." Katalina finished their sentence while holding her forehead.
Richard just nodded and replied, "Yes, and I want to ask for your help so that she will like me too," while fixing his hair with a comb that appeared out of nowhere...
"You don't even know the name of this woman and you already want to win her heart?? Moreover, if she is as beautiful as you described, are you sure she doesn't already have a partner?" Vyrn said to Richard.
Hearing this Richard fell silent because he hadn't thought about it at all. "Ah... but... there's no harm in trying first," Richard replied hesitantly.
Djeeta and the others is really not sure about all of this, but because Richard already helped them before they had no choice but to help him. "Alright, we'll help you," Djeeta said while shaking her head.
"Eh!? Really? You want to help me? Thank you so much, Captain!" Richard feeling happy immediately held Djeeta's hands and swung them up and down quickly.
"Hmm, I'm starting to think that this is a bad idea..." Vyrn said as he watched Richard's behavior.
While Djeeta and the others were busy with Richard, now back to Rei and Theresa.
After the two of them found the Casino Liner and registered themselves to participate in the duel because Rei saw that the prize money they offered is very high so he decided to join.
Now they just needed to wait for the event to start, and they were both walking together, enjoying this festival.
"Is it delicious, Theresa?" I asked Theresa, who is beside me.
Just like before she still linked her left arm with my right arm while eating the food she bought from one of the stalls at the festival.
"Quite good, but this candy is too sweet for me," Theresa said while licking the candy that I bought for her.
After saying that Theresa then offered the candy to me. "Would you like to try it?"
Hmm? Without much thought I accepted Theresa's offer and licked the candy she's offer. "Hmm, indeed, this candy is too sweet," I said to Theresa.
"Oh..." but strangely Theresa just answered briefly and quietly which made me look at her.
I could see that Theresa is now looking at the candy she was holding, and I could see that her face is also slightly red.
Is she embarrassed? Why did she offer me her candy if she's embarrassed just because I licked it?
When Theresa offered her candy to Rei, she didn't think too much and just wanted Rei to taste the candy.
But after Rei had licked the candy, she realized that what she did is like an indirect kiss only done by couples.
Thinking about all that made Theresa feel very embarrassed, and her face turned red because she really had no experience in this area.
Meanwhile Rei not knowing what Theresa was thinking, just staring at her red face with a smile. "Kinda cute," he murmured when he saw her blush.
But Rei's words only made Theresa's face even redder, and in the end she decided to just bite her candy to distract herself.
"Let's continue enjoying this festival," Theresa spoke quickly and then pulled me to go to another stall where there were many games we could play.
The two of us continued to have fun playing many games at the festival while also trying out some food as we waited for the duels to begin.
But as we were walking suddenly someone approached both of us. "You two! From your appearance and the weapon this girl is carrying, are you fighters?" We heard a hurried voice that made us look in their direction.
"Yes, I can be called that," Theresa responded to the person.
Hearing that the person immediately put on a happy expression. "Finally, I found someone! Please help me. Some monsters have escaped from our circus of horrors!" The person said to us in a panic.
"What!?" I didn't expect that there would be someone using monsters as entertainment in the circus at this festival?
"We managed to get them out of town, but they're lurking around the main gate. Who knows when they might try and break back in." The person said while pointing to a certain direction.
"And while they're still there, people leaving town are in danger of being attacked."
Hearing this Theresa immediately put on a serious expression. "Don't worry, we will help you. So just leave those monsters to us, and for you, you should inform the other people not to use the exit through there."
After that Theresa turned to me with her serious look. I knew what she wanted to say so I just said, "Let's finish this quickly and then return to the casino liner" to her.
After that Theresa released her arm from me and ran towards the exit where the monsters were. I also ran with her towards where the monsters were.
A few moments later Theresa and I arrived at the town entrance and were awestruck by the massive horde of monsters before them.
"Wow, that's a lot of monsters," I said to Theresa when I saw so many monsters in this place.
But strangely some of the monsters were also shrouded in raging fire. I had never seen monsters like that in Port Breeze.
"Can you fight, Rei? I saw you also register yourself in the duels event, so I assume you know how to fight too, right?" Theresa said to me as she took out her sword which had a very unique shape from behind her waist.

"Don't worry Theresa, you can leave half of the monsters to me," I casually said to Theresa because fighting monsters like this wouldn't be too difficult for me.
Theresa just smiled and nodded, "Lamina Indicam," and then I heard Theresa murmuring something.
Not long many magic circles began to appear around her sword and started revolving around it. After a while the magic circles entered her sword and her sword began to glow green.
"I'll go first then!" Theresa immediately attacked the monsters, and I could see that she could defeat the monsters with just one slash.
Theresa's movements were quite agile, not as agile as Djeeta, but enough to avoid all the monster attacks coming at her.
"Well, now it's my turn..." I raised my right hand forward, making a gesture as if holding a weapon.
"Please let me borrow your power Luminiera, Luminiera Bolt Credo." After that golden light appeared in my hand forming a gun.
Shortly after the light disappeared once the gun is fully formed, and I could see Luminiera's gun in my hand.

"Glauki Aktis." I pulled the trigger causing green light to emerge from the tip of the gun that shine brightly.
The weapon then shot the light towards the monsters in front of me. When the light was about to reach them it immediately split in various directions hitting all the monsters.
All the monsters hit by the light disappeared in a golden glow and vanished from this place.
There was no explosion or trace left of the monsters they all vanished without a trace.
Seeing that all the monsters were defeated, I dispelled the weapon I used and turned towards Theresa.
I could see that Theresa had also finished defeating all the monsters and is currently wiping her sweat. "Good job, Theresa," I said as I approached her.
Theresa after hearing me immediately turned towards me. "Oh, Rei? Are you done?" She then looked behind me and saw no monsters left.
"What!? How did you manage to defeat all the monsters without leaving any trace at all?" Theresa looked very confused because she heard no sounds of battle at all, and there were no remains of all the monsters.
But I just smiled while shrugging, "I used my weapon that can eliminate all traces of the monsters."
Theresa became even more confused because she had never seen a weapon like that, but she eventually decided to let it go considering the vastness of the Sky Realm where many people might have unique weapons like hers.
"Since we're done, let's go back to the town and inform the people there that the monsters have been taken care of, and then return to the Casino Liner," I said to Theresa.
"Ah, you're right! Let's hurry before we're late," Theresa put away her weapon and then pulled me as she ran towards the Casino Liner.
