Auror: Oh, I know that look, Rayla. It's the pessimistic look.
[img]https://i.imgur.com/Fyjw6aT.png[/img]
Marina: W-What do you mean, pessimistic?
[img]https://i.imgur.com/9S6co1u.png[/img]
Umbra: It means she believes that we might be leading you all in a trap.
[img]https://i.imgur.com/QZND1Zn.png[/img]
Auror: I do agree with her, though. You two do sound trustworthy, but the fact that you forced a pact on a kid and now are so desperate to bring Lucent with you sounds awfully suspicious.

Kiragi: T-They didn't force me! I wanted this!
[img]https://i.imgur.com/4b0HCfQ.png[/img]
Kaito: Kiragi...?
[img]https://i.imgur.com/hm1aRZU.png[/img]
Kiragi: I'm sure Umbra and Ictio are not lying! They gave me a chance to help everyone! And like I said, Mr. Icy Messy Hair, I wanted this!
[img]https://i.imgur.com/M1d5nMl.png[/img]
Auror: Icy... Messy Hair?
[img]https://i.imgur.com/4CNGJSh.png[/img]
Marina: Lucent, what is your opinion on this. Are you willing to believe in them?

[i]It did seem like it could be a trap. However, Lucent wanted to give a chance to the idea. If he's able to help people, he will take it.[/i]

[img]https://i.imgur.com/3jccryV.png[/img]
Lucent: I... I am.
[img]https://i.imgur.com/7FHpAOX.png[/img]
Kiragi: Yay!!
[img]https://i.imgur.com/RclEVRN.png[/img]
Auror: That fast?
[img]https://i.imgur.com/83cdpUp.png[/img]
Lucent: There are so many things that I don't know either. But if this is the chance for me to do it, then I'll take it. Even if I might... fall into a trap.
[img]https://i.imgur.com/otQYiPp.png[/img]
Auror: Well, if you say so, guess I just need to keep my eyes open then.
[img]https://i.imgur.com/3xK7Mbp.png[/img]
Marina: We might not need to keep our guard up. At least, not too much. We still need to understand how this exactly works, but I am sure they are on our side.
[img]https://i.imgur.com/DzNjiXy.png[/img]
Kaito: Well, I don't have anything to say on this. If Lucent decided to trust them, so will I.
[img]https://i.imgur.com/hayOLFX.png[/img]
Ictio: YAAAAAY!! WE DID IT!!
[img]https://i.imgur.com/iIczHsM.png[/img]
Umbra: *sigh* Please forgive my idiot twin who gets overexcited about a lot of things...

[i]*BGM stops*[/i]

[i]Steps could be heard from the stairs. As they looked, Xaizor, Tiane, Theo, Kaori and Azrel came.[/i]

[img]https://i.imgur.com/8OuRFcP.png[/img]
Marina: Xaizor! Everyone!
[img]https://i.imgur.com/ciEjqb3.png[/img]
Auror: And a stranger arrives on the field, folks. Who's the guy?
[img]https://i.imgur.com/vK3uHoL.png[/img]
Lucent: Y-You're... from the morning...!
[img]https://i.imgur.com/a532uBK.png[/img]
Kaito: You know this guy?
[img]https://i.imgur.com/WZcK3d6.png[/img]
Xaizor: This Azrel dude here says he has something to speak with Lucent. So, we've brought him up here.

[i]After a long fight, Lilina and 5T dispatched all the soldiers. She tried to take her breath, as her hands trembled a little.[/i]

[img]https://i.imgur.com/nZB3q8A.png[/img]
Lilina: So... this is the meaning of fighting...
[img]https://i.imgur.com/7iCdopA.png[/img]
5T: It scares when you first do it, huh? I can't understand that.
[img]https://i.imgur.com/0IpFNdD.png[/img]
Lilina: W-What do you mean?
[img]https://i.imgur.com/WYIYmuh.png[/img]
5T: I was... well, raised for fighting. That's what I mean.
[img]https://i.imgur.com/A5qNxbR.png[/img]
Lilina: Quill...

[i]An answer to 5T's signal reached him. It was a direct order to bring Lilina to the Guild. At the same time, Lilina reverted back to her normal form.[/i]

[img]https://i.imgur.com/JUZWKZU.png[/img]
5T: Alright, we're heading back to the Guild now. I got orders to bring you there right now.
[img]https://i.imgur.com/g9IEQQT.png[/img]
Lilina: W-What do you think it'll happen?
5T: I don't know. We'll know when we get there.
