Shikra and Valentino are inside the library, spending almost two days on research about the cores in their body.260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnb88qIsJuA
“I think I know how we can test it!” Shikra said excitedly, “It won’t hurt, right?” she asked.260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPiyqHAkJJ
“Not at all! Why do you think I was researching about them?” Valentino replied, “We need to be careful though because we don’t want to use it too soon. Not until we have more knowledge about what this power does to the core itself,” Valentino explained.260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MEylgOjvO
“Okay... but if we succeed, I will owe you one. One big one,” Shikra grinned mischievously at Valentino.260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNTzmtAdYC
So the two tested what is inscribed on the book they have collected.260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWNgkN0B4k
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPzd0164UF
It said that when you want to directly manipulate Magika towards your core, you need to force it out of your body. The two did it, and they are successful, with minor issue of exhaustion.260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5HEClPr36

After minutes of practicing, Shikra got reminded about a certain festival at their place called Rose Quartz. It is a festival where they dance along with the music together with their partners.260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwvAMSdtHf
Shikra suggested that they should go there.260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySkUJFrTsh
When they arrived in the town, both were surprised to see there are so many people here.260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGL4FdlCqgu
There is a small stage near the center of the village. There are also many stalls selling food and drinks, as well as dancing partners.260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBL1OCm9u5k
“What are we going to do first?” Shikra asked Valentino as they walked around.260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhG7gDK2Hv
“Well, I guess we could start with our usual tradition,” Val said, and then grabbed Shikra by the hand and pulled her into the dance.260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTckN2b2rR
"Aren't you a little excited to dance with me, Mr. Valentino Sarimiento?" she teased.260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoU8zEV7hLd
The conductor started tapping his baton, signaling the start of the dance.260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7HsoKXB4zf
Valentino didn't respond to Shikra's teasing. He just kept smiling while watching how beautifully Shikra danced. Her moves are precise and graceful like always. They keep moving to the beat of the music. Gracefully responding to each other's movements and carefully guiding each other to the next step on the dance. They are like swans in a glistening lake.260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40GORYv0V7
They keep dancing until they reached the end of the song. Valentino let go of Shikra’s hands and smiled proudly at his work. He turned his head to look at her, only to find her smiling widely back at him.260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnqRWOGteO
"You're excellent, Mr. Valentino!" Shikra exclaimed.260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9yI5UGR1X
"Thanks," he said shyly. "Are you enjoying the festival?"260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2aEojQScco
Shikra nodded energetically. She pointed towards a stall where people are still handing out sweets.260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKMVFIFKpP
“Do you want some? I bought some yesterday.” Shikra said as she took the candy from the vendor.260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYY786ohCNb
Valentino looked at the treats.260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEjOsuFx1u
"Can we stay for a bit longer in here, Shikra. I'm... enjoying the festival," he whispers at Shikra with a hint of stagger in his voice.260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡee7v0jvEuF
"Of course we can! Nobody's stopping us. And besides, best friends do things together, especially when they are enjoying the company," she said as she offered the treat in front of his face. "I will always be with you, no matter what happened."260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyR48Con5HT
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNrPbXx0Ra
Valentino smiles at Shikra's words. He takes a chocolate covered strawberry from the vendor's hand and puts it into his mouth.260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZsDudek8F
"It's not as good as mine, but this is fine," he says quietly, and Shikra giggles.260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8ThHJi1SI
They walk around the town and enjoy the festival.260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKki2CFN5U
