V3-C5: Invitation to Onost Academy The moment Aqua and Azure were about to separate toward their own chambers, much to the dismay of the champion, the usual voice belonging to a certain princess reached Aqua’s ears. “Well, look at that, finally grew a spine and went on a date?” The princess wrapped her arms around the duo and smiled wryly at the blushed expression of Azure. “So did you, you know?” She let go of the duo and stepped in front of them before she made scissoring motions with her hands. Yet neither girl understood what she meant. “Sheira…” Azure grumbled while trying not to fall through the ground out of sheer shame. “Just kidding, you two ladies are too innocent for it.” She placed her hands behind her back and approached Aqua. “I love that hairstyle ~” “Thank you, Azure styled it for me.” “Oh, she did?” Her grin grew wider as she switched her gaze to Azure. “And I guess yours is Aqua’s doing?” Both girls nodded in response. “I see~ Good progress, I am proud of you.” Sheira nodded with apparent pride in her eyes. “You tease me, yet I see you getting rather chummy with that maid~” Azure leaned forward; she finally had a way to fight back. “Ah, her, yes, she is cute. If she wanted, I would definitely show her a good time.” The answer made Azure’s jaw drop. “Y…you really have no shame!” “Shame is for the weak, Azu~” “You are a princess!” “Yes, and I would be someone’s pillow princess without any issues~” Sheira pushed her tongue out slightly before Azure raised her hand and struck Sheira over the top of her head. “Ooow!” It’s always so colorful with these two. Aqua crossed her arms and smiled warmly as Azure proceeded to ruin Sheira’s neatly styled hair. Aqua’s hand slowly glided in front of her mouth, and she let out a soft chuckle, which made both girls stop fighting. “Ah, I almost forgot!” Sheira gasped. Aqua tilted her head slightly, “What’s wrong, Sheira?” “Alright, hear this out.” She grinned before she clasped her hands together. “You two are going to the Academy with me!” Azure stepped back, “What?!” “You and Aqua will be classmates, ain’t that gonna be the cutest thing ever!” “Sheira, you do realize I have many duties to attend to?” “Hah~ Do not worry, Dad has allowed you to go for one semester, perfect time for you to catch up and even refresh on things!” She then turned to Aqua, then back to Azure, and winked. Aqua tapped her foot against the ground, “Why me?” “Well, I thought you might like to see how things are taught to us.” She is right. Aqua nodded as she pinched her chin, “Aren’t there better ways than the Academy?” “Maybe, but it is a good time to socialize and learn! It’s rather short, too. I say it is worth it.” Sheira placed her hands under her chin and stared at Aqua with a puppy stare. Aqua slowly blinked. In all fairness, she would have loved to experience something like an academy, yet it did not make sense for someone experienced like herself to attend an institution meant to nurture those who had just begun their journey in pursuit of knowledge. “I do not mind, but I would like to know a real reason.” Aqua patiently waited for a response. “Do I need one?” “No, but I would like to know why you would want to drag me through the academy.” Sheira sighed loudly, “Because I would be lonely without you two!” Her face turned bright red as she turned toward the floor. “It’s like you just want to fluster me.” Aqua smiled as she tilted her head slightly. Sheira’s reason was adorable, and she had no issue with such. If anyone had deserved to be indulged, it would have been Sheira. “I will go, I am not one to throw away such a unique experience.” “If Aqua is going, then I have no objections either. Though it will be pretty strange for someone as old as me to attend.” Azure raised her hand sheepishly. “Of course you don’t, Azu, and do not worry, I heard some older nobility returned to finish their studies.” Sheira chuckled for a moment before she slid her hands under her dress and pulled out three letters
