The group was teleported back to〈S.T.E.L.L.A〉, leaving the now released human chair free. Mia didn't see the portal the first time Cole and the party arrived because she was just getting into her hiding position.
When she saw Felicia open up a portal, she was left dumbstruck. She had always believed that only she had such power. No, she knew in her heart that there could be other people who could way better than her in the places called 'Zones.'
However, because she believed that she would never have the chance to meet someone from outside Fantasia, she just gradually let such thoughts fade away from her memory.
But when faced with the fact that the person named Felicia didn't seem to have to shout any incantations or write a spell to activate her portals, she felt inferior.
Coupled along with how she was treated within the few minutes of meeting them, she felt a deep-seated hatred coursing throughout her body all of a sudden. The jealousy she felt when she saw the flies buzzing around her Hero couldn't be compared to what she was feeling now.
She engraved the woman's face into her memory along with the brats that showed up with her. Unfortunately, she wasn't able to see the silver-haired man's face because of the angle she was at.
But with such noticeable hair color, she figured she would be able to spot him from a mile away.
She clenched her fists and teleported to the only person who could help train herself to be a worthy opponent.
A Hero.

When everyone went back to〈S.T.E.L.L.A〉, Gemi had a slightly guilty look on her face. She nudged her brother's arm which was still holding onto his tablet and asked.
"You know, Nii, maybe we shouldn't have done that to that bystander."
"Well, would you rather we have silenced her forever?"
"Slightly, because I have a feeling that it'll come back to bite us in the butt later."
Both of the twins would prefer to live a life of peace and quiet. If there was anything that could potentially threaten their days of laziness, they would kill them in a heartbeat.
The reason they didn't do that to Mia was because they felt that a person who wasn't even able to properly hide a behind a bush would in no way be a threat. It would also be an excruciatingly long and difficult journey if a normal person were to venture out into the〈Neutral Zone〉
The Xeno would eat them the moment they fell asleep.
And then again, it's not like she knew how to teleport into the nowhere that〈S.T.E.L.L.A〉was located in.
"Don't worry, just fill her body with a barrage of bullets when the time comes."
"Okay."
Mini reassured her with one of the most powerful things of all time, modern firepower. The Val who happened to hear this felt it weird for a pair of 14-year-olds to talk about killing a random bystander.
「I don't think murder is something that a pair of 14-year-old twins should be talking about so casually.」
"But, Mr. Dragon, don't young Dragons kill people too?"
When Val was faced with such a question by the twins, he paused for abut and thought for a while.
「Point. What we eat during adolescence can affect what kind of Dragon we grow up into after all.」
"Really? Tell us more."
Gemi and Mini seemed to be interested in the topic of how Dragons grow up. Meanwhile, Cole seemed to have noticed something and asked Felicia.
"Felicia, I have a question."
"Hmm? What is it, Cole?
Felicia had just closed the portal and turned her head to face Cole.
"I had this question earlier when you first teleported us to the〈Fantasia Zone〉, but I thought that the people you were going to teleport had to be in contact with you?"
"Ah, I only have to do that if there are only 2 people. I can just open up a portal if 3 or more have to be transported."
"Heh..."
'There a lot of things I still don't know about you yet, huh?'
Cole thought of such a thing to himself. Unfortunately, a certain AI was smiling at the back of his head. Cole shrugged off the thought and went to ask Gemi and Mini, who were now engaged in a heated discussion about Dragon biology.
"Anyway, what do we now?"
Mini excused himself from the conversation and explained to Cole.
"We have to register Mr. Dragon here as an additional party member for the mission."
"We should then go to the Armory and prepare for any things that might come our way."
When Cole heard the word 'Armory.' He felt excited. Although such excitement didn't show on his face. He had wanted to go visit the Armory in his spare time but he had to deal with the piles of unfinished work the previous Libra Department Head left behind.
"Hmmm... Then how about we split the work? Gemi and Felicia will bring Val to register him and we'll go to the Armory?"
"Sounds good.
Overhearing this conversation, Felicia tapped Cole on the shoulder and asked him.
"Um, Cole? Do you think I should head back already?"
"? What do you mean?"
"Eva should be waiting for me back home right? She'll also be lonely without me..."
"Oh yeah, I didn't tell you."
"? Tell me what?"
It was as if there was a question mark floarting over Felicia's head. Cole responded wiht a calm voice and had a tone that made it seem that what he was about to say was an already established fact.
"That we're taking you on the Mission with us."
Felicia took some time to proccess the words that had just entered her ears. A few seconds later, her face was filled with shock and she said with the fastest voice that Cole had ever heard come from her mouth.
"Whatdoyoumeanbythat?!"
"You don't expect us to walk there, right?"
In truth, Cole wasn't actually traumatized by accidentally making a fifty meter wide crater in the front of his house. He's had experienced doing that multiple times on an entire planet.
He just brought her because he was ned becactually told beforehand that he would have to report to Rory's office the next day. He also acted that he was stunned by his own feats because he felt a bit bad for Felicia and Libra.
"No, but--"
"You do realize that Libra is with Eva and you can just teleport back anytime you want?"
"Ah-- Okay then."
When Cole reminded her of this fact, peace returned to Felicia's face. She was on the verge of physically cursing and had already mentally spat some many times.
The group split up and went to their respective destinations.

"So this is the Armory..."
Cole looked at the numerous kinds of weapons hooked upon the numerous amounts of shelves in the room.
He and Mini were currently in the Neutral Section of the Armory. It was the section of the Armory that housed weapons and armor that could be used in all the Zones. Unfortunately, although they could be brought anywhere, they didn't have the Zone Bonus other items had.
The Zone Bonus was an enchantment that boosted an item's performance if they were used in the Zone that it originated from.
Cole had read about it in the Mechanica Book he had been given. The reason why it was included was because although it was called an 'enchantment', it could range from an actual magical enchantment to pure weapon modification.
Thye had decided to visit the Neutral Section first because most Mechanicas generally chose thier general use items here while they changed their weapon or armor depending on the Zone they would go to.
Cole took his coat off and checked the different pockets he had sewed inside them. He viewed the available items and thought of what would be the best assortment of items that he could fit in his coat.
The weight wouldn't bother him in the slightest. If he could run thousands of kilometers straight without feeling tired, he could easily carry a few more kilograms on his back.
'Is that a drug dealer jacket?'
When Mini saw all the pockets inside Cole's jacket, that was the first thing he thought of. He decided to shrug it off and look for more energy ampoules to fuel his energy guns.
He needed to freshen up his mastery of them after all.
Cole thought that he also needed a proper set of equipment. He could just modify them himself if the itme in question wasn't up to standards.
He thought that he needed to at least have a pair of boots that helped with the booster at his feet. Although they were more combat-oriented than a pure Support-type Mechanica's boosters which gave great burst speed so they could get away quickly.
Combat Mechanicas boosters usually focused on making sharp turns when needed to in battle or to shorten or widen the distance between enemies. It had longevity in it's design so it was made sure to last a while before a Mechanica needed to fuel it with an energy ampoule.
"Oh, that's perfect."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
