Location- Sky Blossom City, Southern Watch military base.

"Hi, I am Corey Bright. Nice to meet you." Corey introduced herself and whispered to me, "Anna had a twin sister?"

"Apparently, she does," I answered.

"You are not like your parents described you." Ann found Corey cute. With her feisty and tomboy demeanor.

"I have grown up a lot since the last they saw me," Corey answered. There was some truth to her words. Leaving her origin card aside, it has been years since Corey and her parent meet each other.

"I can see that. The little princess, in their words, has grown up to be a fine card apprentice. I heard you are a gold-grade card creationist and can see that you forged your ego gem. Your talent is nothing short of what they described. If you join Southern Watch, you can meet them at the Way beyond." Ann praised Corey and smoothly tried to recruit Corey using her parents as a bargain

"I suddenly lost all respect for you." Corey was disgusted hearing Ann try to recruit her using her life's deepest trauma.

"..." Hearing Corey be so straightforward, Ann's eyes twitched.

"Hey, little girl. Watch how you take to her highness. Even if the commander is your godmother, you have no right to talk to her sister so rudely." Ollie once again rushed his nose into other people's business. And hearing him say the word godmother, Anna had made a mental note to teach this righteous sob a lesson later in the training drill.

"Fuck off!" Ollie was rash, but Corey was an edge lord who could be easily triggered with any word in the dictionary.

"..." Ollie has never been given the finger by a girl, much less a beauty like Corey. He was having a hard time processing it to figuring out how to react to beauty cussing at him.

His pondering face triggered Corey, who mistook his pondering eyes as judging eyes, "I challenge you to a deathmatch."

"What? I am not going to fight you. I don't like to bully the weak." Ollie was reluctant to accept a duel put forward by a teenage girl.

"I don't care. I will pluck those eyes off your sockets. And see if they are still judgy." Corey almost pounced on Ollie. If not from me, holding her back.

"Corey, let go of your anger. He is a simpleton. He didn't mean anything by his words." I consoled Corey.

"Ollie, go back and give me another five hundred pistol squats for each of your legs." Anna's voice sounded as she walked hand in hand with Susan towards us.

"Yes, commander" Ollie didn't complain and returned to complete his punishment along with the other two young soldiers.

"Good morning, Susan. How did you guys know that I was here? Is there anything urgent for you guys to search for me? You could have just called me." After greeting Susan, I asked if there was something urgent for them to look for me in person instead of making a grimoire call.

"We tried calling you, but we couldn't reach your grimoire. Corey's cousin informed us that last he saw you was when you were heading out to drop her highness at the Southern watch base. So we came to check on you. To see if everything was okay." Susan explained.

"Yes, we were worried that these people had imprisoned you here. But it seems you are enjoying your company." Corey said the last sentence eyeing the twin princesses.

"..." I rolled my eyes at Corey's words. But I was happy that Susan and Corey went out of their way to find me. The first time when I revealed my prowess to the southern royal family, I was worried that they would lock me up in a secret base. What bothered me even more was that nobody would be looking for me. And the royal family would get away with it. Today seeing Susan look for me, I felt warm. And knew that I, too, had a person who would miss me.

"Your call could not reach his grimoire because of the anti-eavesdropping array covering the base. But, you guys have a rich imagination." Said Anna looking at Susan. Even though it was Corey, who spoke about the conspiracy, something is going on between these two. It feels like a rivalry. But I can not put my finger on it because Susan and Anna are people of two different worlds. They do not have anything in common to have a rivalry between them.

"Boy, I finally figured out the entire cleansing array formation you came up with. I tried to modify it to get more efficiency, but your model already had the highest efficiency. I was surprised to discover that. But this proves that your capabilities are beyond an advanced array master. If you don't mind, I will help you apply copyright for your recipe." After accepting his defeat in his wager against me, Old Lorenzo began deciphering the temporary array I had set up. Until he finally mastered the array itself and tried to modify it to get more efficiency, only to find that my array already gave the highest efficiency.

After analyzing the cleansing array formation I set up, old Lorenzo was astonished and impressed. He even offered to help me apply Copyright for my array formation recipe.

"Sure, but not yet. Because it utilizes the new nature of the temperature soul pathway, we can apply for its copyright after our joint venture in acquiring the copyrights of the various array formations reaches a conclusion." The reason I did not bring up applying copyright to the cleansing array formation recipe I created is that it made use of the new nature of the temperature soul pathway I discovered.

"Okay. And have you thought about applying for an array master certificate?" Lorenzo agreed with me and asked if I would consider becoming an official array master.

"Wait? Can I apply for that? I haven't even received my high school diploma yet." I asked Lorenzo in surprise.
