-Tower Master's Office-
"Well, I can understand Yuno..." Father Orsi start. "But are you really considering allowing Asta to take the exam, too?"
"Well, he's saying wants to do it." The older man simply states. "And the ones I was counting on.." He trails off remembering two other candidates who have forfeit from joining the Magic knights. He sighs loudly. "..decided against taking the exam."
"Again, I believe Yuno will be fine, but I don't think Asta's up for it." The priest state.
"Well, he's saying he wants to do it." The Tower Master dismissingly state, repeating his earlier words.
"Again, I believe Yuno will be fine, but it'll be pointless for Asta to take them."
"Well, he's saying he wants to do it." Again he simply answers then he grins teasingly. "Actually, the idea of Asta going to royal capital makes you feel lonely, doesn't it?" He playfully pokes the priest who nervously sweats from the correct accusation.
"Aw, Father!" Sister Lily join in amusement.
"Th-that's not- I just believe that if he's going to fail anyway, he's better off not taking it in the first place." The priest nervously splutters out words. "A-and you know- The little ones will miss him, too. Not me! But they'll have one less person to play with!"
Sister Lily gave him a close eye smile saying that she knows all too well his real meaning behind those words.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" He sweats heavily.
It didn't help as the oldest man keep on patting his shoulder while smirking teasingly.
"Not you too, Tower Master!"
"Well, I'll feel a little lonely with both Yuno and Asta gone, Father." The water magic user fondly smiles.
Father clear his throat. "Well, of course, I raised them, and I've lived with them ever since they were babies." He states as he turns his back from them walking over the door. "I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a bit sad to see them go."
"If possible, I'd like for them to stay at the church." Sister state. "But I also want to let them do what they want to do."
"Indeed." The tower master adds. "Besides, you know, Yuno will be fine, and Asta might fail the exam and come right back anyway. You also still have Kana over the church."
"Y-you're right. Right!" Father's face brightens up. "Yuno will be fine, but the other one will come right back." Tears of happiness run down his face as his hands clench together. "And my fiery angel will still be here."
"Ano... About that-" Sister Lily intercept with a smile on her face.
Both of the men glance over her in confusion.
"Eh?"
The red hair girl suddenly sneezes and glance around in confusion. "Did someone talking about me?" She mutters rubbing her nose.
Yuno glance over her with a large number of chopped woods floated right behind them. "Are you catching a cold?"
"Don't know?" She tilts her head but a loud voice catches her attention only to see Asta running over them at a quick pace. "That boy." An irk mark appears on her forehead.
"Training's not over until I'm back at the church!" Asta shout and add as he runs past them. "Eat my dust!"
Kana glance over Yuno who held a look that she knows so well and smile. "Go on, I will be fine."
The black-haired boy looks over her, giving her a nod then took off catching up with the ash-blond boy.
The fire magic user sighs in amusement as she watches them racing each other leaving trails of dust behind. "Never get bored with those blockheads." She mutters as she continues her journey with a basket full of ingredients for dinner along with moguro leaves for Asta knowing that he would be requesting for her to brew more of them.
"Yuno can be pretty childish sometimes."
Upon arriving at the church, Kana watch as Asta fall flat on his back and heard Rekka commenting over Yuno's antique.
"Sometimes?" Kana sigh. "That guy has always been childish."
Her words catch the children's attention who spun and happily greet her.
"Welcome back, Kana-nee!"
"Kana-nee!" Hollo and Aruru run over her with a big smile on her face.
The older girl smile lovingly and she lowers herself. "What have you two been doing when I'm not here?"
Aruru jump with her fist clench in excitement. "Ruru has been helping Rekka-nee-chan and Nash-nii chan cleaning!"
"Hollo too!" The youngest blond hair boy raises his hand.
"That's great!" She ruffles their heads making them giggle along with her. "Fine then. As a reward, I make something special for dinner!"
"Yeah!" The children happily cheer.
"And finally, he defeated the demon. The mage's light shone ever so brightly upon the whole world. The long, long night had come to an end. This was the dawn of our world. The end." Kana close the storybook that she has been reading countless off times but the children still didn't seem to get bored by it.
She chuckles lovingly as she watches them already fall asleep. She quietly repositions the blanket so that they would be covering the four youngest children. She then glances over Asta sprawling form, snoring as he already falls asleep, tired from the training.
The main problem for her, however, the same age of her but his act didn't match his look as she glances over down over the boy who has been using her thigh as a pillow.
"Oui," An irk mark appears on her head. "I know that you're awake, now move."
Yuno grumble lowly as he moves a little closer so that he would be hugging her stomach.
Kana sigh. "Yuno, come on now. How many times do we have been going on with this?"
"Then, mar-" The messy black hair boy eyes snap open and stare directly to her eyes.
"I refuse." She cut him off.
"Then I refuse to move."
Her eyes twitch in annoy as her fist clench, itching to hit the boy but he was smart knowing that she won't be hitting him since it will only disturb the other children which would awake them.
With a sigh, she ends up smothering her hand over his messy hair which surprises him. He peeks over her and watches as she looks in deep thought. "What's wrong?"
The red hair girl glances down and smiles at him. "Don't worry, it's nothing."
Sensing there's more behind her words. He sits up starring directly at her eyes. "Tell me."
Kana look at him with a surprise expression over the seriousness in his tone and at the look he was giving her. A smile that didn't reach her eyes appears as she nervously fidgeting her fingers. "You see... I was thinking of taking the exam with both of you." She watches as a look of shock morphs on the messy black hair boy's face.
"Eh?"
