Mimi and Delya spar playfully until Liana enforces strict training. Gloria challenges Liana to a sparring match, revealing their intense rivalry. Meanwhile, Javier works on a new, advanced knight, capable of manual piloting, remote control, and autonomous combat.

"Husband?"

"Hmm? Yes, Felicia?"

Felicia glanced up at the huge, nearly finished orange-bronze knight, her tail swaying thoughtfully before looking back at Javier.

"Why haven’t you secured it yet? The parts aren’t screwed, welded, or reinforced with magic. It looks like it could fall apart if you just leave it like this."

Javier grinned, still standing on the ladder as he glanced down at her. "Ah~ Since this is a prototype, I want to take my time and enjoy the process. Putting it all together piece by piece before completely sealing it with magic or screws feels more satisfying. It’s like building a puzzle!"

Felicia tilted her head, her tail flicking curiously. "But why not just fuse it completely as you put each part together? What if a strong wind blows and knocks the parts over?"

"Heh~ No way the wind is going to blow this knight away. This one is heavy." Javier patted the frame proudly, a smug grin on his face. "It’s built with the finest materials. A little breeze isn’t going to do anything to it."

"R... really?" Felicia glanced up at Javier, who was humming happily while carefully placing another part onto the frame, his movements slow and deliberate, savoring every step of the process.

He glanced down at her with a warm smile. "Don’t worry, Felicia. This is how men like me enjoy our work. Taking it slow, appreciating each piece coming together, it’s part of the craft. Rushing it would ruin the fun."

"Oh..." Felicia nodded, her expression softening as she watched him work.

"Don’t worry! Once this is done, I’ll show you the finished product. I’ll even let you ride with me around the estate for a test run!"

"Oh... okay~" Felicia smiled warmly.

Javier checked his pocket, then glanced around before noticing one of Buddy’s feathers lying a short distance away.

"Felicia, could you get that feather for me?"

Felicia smiled and gracefully walked away, her steps light as she headed toward the feather.

While in the distance.

Liana and Gloria were still locked in their intense ’training,’ their movements sharp and precise. As Liana blocked one of Gloria’s attacks, she smirked, her voice calm and teasing.

"Your attacks are becoming predictable, Gloria."

Gloria smiled sweetly, her glasses glinting in the light. "I could say the same about yours, Liana."

Both leaped back, landing a short distance apart, their auras flaring.

"Perhaps we should settle this by seeing whose magic is more powerful."

"Agreed~"

Countless magic circles flickered to life around Liana and Gloria, glowing with intense energy as they stood casually, their expressions calm and focused.

Delya glanced at them from a distance before gracefully standing up, turned to Mimi and Gracelle, her voice calm and measured.

"It’s going to be dangerous if we watch from here. We should move toward the personal workshop area. There are seats and tables there, and the barrier is stronger."

"Nya?" Mimi tilted her head, a mischievous grin spreading across her face. "Delya, you’re just being paranoid, nya! There’s no way Big Sis Liana and Big Sis Gloria are using their full power! Besides, we’re wearing the best training outfits! I’m staying here, nya! I want to see their magic up close! Watching from a distance is no fun!"

Delya shook her head and exhaled before extending her hand toward Gracelle. "Gracelle, would you like to join me? We can sit in a safer spot and enjoy some chocolate and hot chocolate drinks. The workshop has a hot water dispenser and chocolate powder."

"Okay~" Gracelle stood up, dusting off her pants before following Delya toward the personal workshop.

After they walked away, Mimi mumbled under her breath, her voice teasing. "Delya is just being a worrywart, nya~"

Magic spheres materialized around Liana and Gloria, swirling with raw energy as they launched their attacks simultaneously. The air crackled as their spells collided, exploding in bursts of light and force. They continued their assault, each casting advanced-tier magic with instant precision, countering and deflecting each other’s attacks with fluid ease.

Mimi’s tail swayed in excitement, her eyes sparkling as she watched the display.

"Uoohhh!!! This is a real battle, nya! Eheheheh~"

The clash of magic intensified, the air crackling with energy. Gloria delivered a swift side kick, only for Liana to block it with her palm, their eyes locking in a fierce glare before both turned to Mimi.

"You should move further away! It’s going to get more dangerous!" Liana called out, her voice sharp.

Mimi just grinned, waving a hand dismissively. "There’s nothing to worry about, nya! I’m wearing the best training outfit, and I can dodge anything, nya!"

"Suit yourself!" Gloria said, shaking her head before leaping back, her hands glowing with concentrated mana.

They resumed their close-range combat, exchanging blows before they leaped back, palms raised. Mana surged around their hands, massive magic spheres began to form, glowing with beautiful, intricate patterns of light, swirling with energy that hummed with raw, destructive force.

Liana and Gloria smirked at each other, their eyes glinting with playful mockery.

"I’m a little worried..." Gloria said, her voice dripping with mock concern. "Will you be okay if this hits you?"

Liana smiled, her eyes gleaming with confidence. "Please~ I’m not weak that a magic sphere of this level could hurt me."

Both launched their magic spheres simultaneously. The two orbs met in the middle with a deafening crackle, their energies locking together in a violent clash before they veered off course, straight toward Mimi.

"Nyaaaaaa!!!! Why is it chasing me!?" Mimi shrieked, scrambling up and start bolting across the courtyard as the twin orbs pursued her like angry hornets.

"Reflect it toward the sky!" Liana and Gloria shouted in unison.

"Eeeeeeepppp!!!" Mimi’s white ore battle gauntlets materialized onto her hands in a flash of light. She spun around, catching both spheres with her gauntlets, the energy crackling violently against her palms.

"Nyaaa!!! Big Sis!!"

"Pull them up! Use your gauntlets to launch them skyward!" Liana yelled.

"I... I can’t do it, nyaaaaa!!!" Mimi strained, her arms trembling as she tried to force the spheres upward. With a desperate heave, they slipped from her control and rocketed away...

Straight toward where Javier stood.

"Young Masterrr!!!" Liana and Gloria screamed in unison.
