"Found it, Nanoha!"
When Nanoha and Yuno arrived at the spot where the Jewel Seed was activated, they saw a beam of light shooting into the sky.
"Oh no, this is a bustling area! That girl actually used this method to forcefully awaken the Jewel Seed?! "
Yuno was shocked when he saw the people around him discussing the matter.
"Nanoha, I'll set up a barrier. Seal the Jewel Seed immediately!"
"Okay!"
Upon hearing Yuno's words, Nanoha sped up and dashed toward the Jewel Seed. Yuno landed on the ground and extended his hand. Shortly after, along with a faint magical radiance, the colors of the world changed instantly. The entire area was isolated and the pedestrians on the streets disappeared one after another.
At that moment, Nanoha arrived at the area where the Jewel Seed was located. As it was forcefully awakened by magic, the Jewel Seed didn't transform into its monster form. It floated quietly in the air and didn't move an inch.
As Nanoha approached the Jewel Seed, another young lady with long, blonde hair in twintails landed on an electric pole not far away from her.
"Wait a minute!"
Nanoha called out to the blonde young lady hurriedly. Upon hearing Nanoha's voice, the blonde young lady came to a halt and turned around to look at Nanoha. Looking at the blonde young lady in front of her, Nanoha said.
"Last time … I haven't introduced myself. My name is Nanoha Takamachi. I'm a third-year student at the private Shengxiang University Affiliated Elementary School. What's your name?"
"…"
However, the blonde young lady remained silent in response to Nanoha's question.
"Why are you collecting the Jewel Seed?"
"…"
The blonde young lady didn't intend to speak, but Nanoha wasn't discouraged at all.
Instead, she continued, "Although you said that 'talking won't solve any problems', I think some things must be said. Only by talking can we understand each other. Perhaps we can't help it if we fight each other, but I don't want to fight without understanding anything! "
"That's right."
Fangzheng nodded in satisfaction when he heard Nanye's words on the screen. Then, he looked at Xiao Ying and the others.
"Just like what Nanoha said, no matter if it's her, you, or anyone else, we're all likely to fight. Fighting isn't a problem. What's more important is that we need to know why we're fighting. At the very least, we need to let others know why we're fighting, or at least know why they're fighting. Of course, many times, even if we know the reason, we can't eliminate the conflict because of it. But it's still better than a fight between both sides, only to find out that both sides have the same goal …. That's not a funny joke. "
"Hmm …"
Hearing until here, Xiao Ying also clenched the key in her hand tightly and nodded with force.
At the same time, Naga's voice continued on the screen.
"The reason why I collected the Holy Stone Seed was because You Nuojun was looking for them. It was You Nuojun who found the Holy Stone Seed, so You Nuojun had to ensure that they were returned to their original place. That's why I helped it. Even though it was completely accidental, I was collecting the Jewel Seeds with my own will! Because I don't want the city I live in and the friends around me to be in danger! That's my reason! "
"…"
The blonde girl's expression changed slightly. She hesitated for a moment, then closed her eyes and said, "I'm doing this for …"
"I'm doing this for …"
However, before the golden-haired girl could finish speaking, a voice suddenly appeared and interrupted her.
"Don't answer her, Buffett!"
Following this voice, a big red dog suddenly appeared and landed in front of Naiye, glaring at her fiercely.
"There's nothing to say to a little girl who lives a carefree life. Our most important mission is to capture the Jewel Seeds!"
"…"
The blonde girl shut her mouth again. She took a deep look at Naga, then flew towards the Jewel Seeds again.
"Stop her, Naga. I'll handle this!"
At the same time, Yuno also rushed over and blocked the big red dog. Hearing Yuno's words, Naga nodded and quickly rushed towards Buffett.
The battle instantly became tense, but for the people in front of the screen, it was not that simple.
"What's going on? Why did that dog come out and cause trouble?"
Blackie clapped his hands in dissatisfaction.
"The atmosphere was so good just now. That girl was tempted by Naga's words, so why did she get interrupted by that dog!? How much time does it take to say a few words!? "
"That's true. She was so close …"
Xiao Ying also sighed, looking at the screen in front of her with a complicated expression.
Naga and the blonde girl started fighting again, but this time, the blonde girl did not seem to have any intention of fighting Naga. Instead, she focused on the Jewel Seeds. Naga obviously noticed this, so she kept blocking the blonde girl from getting her hands on the Jewel Seeds.
"Get out of my way!"
The blonde girl finally couldn't hold it in anymore.
"If you don't get out of my way … I won't go easy on you!"
"I won't get out of your way!"
Naga gripped her staff tightly again and looked at the blonde girl in front of her. Then, she seemed to have thought of something.
She said, "You and I are both aiming for the Jewel Seeds, so … let's make a bet!"
The blonde girl frowned again and looked at Naga, as if she did not understand what the blonde girl meant.
Naga did not say much. She opened the Heart of the Rising Sun and revealed the Jewel Seeds that were previously sealed. The blonde girl's expression finally changed when she saw the Jewel Seeds. She stared at the Jewel Seeds in silence for a moment, then asked.
"What bet?"
"It's simple."
Naga heaved a sigh of relief when she heard the blonde girl speak again. She put away the Jewel Seeds and looked at the blonde girl again.
"Let's have a match. We'll decide the victor in one match. If I lose, I'll give you these Holy Stone Seeds, but if you lose, I want to know your name and the reason why you're collecting them!"
"…"
This time, the blonde girl did not answer immediately. She pondered for a moment, then nodded as if she had reached an agreement with someone.
"Okay, no problem."
"Phew …"
Naga finally heaved a sigh of relief when she heard the blonde girl's answer. She smiled. At that moment, the blonde girl spoke again.
"But …"
"But?"
"I can tell you my name now."
The blonde girl looked at Naga as she spoke in a low voice.
"My name is Fayette, Fayette Testerosa."
"Then … can I call you Fayette?"
"… Sure."
"Okay, Fayette!"
After finally being able to converse with Fayette, a happy smile appeared on Naga's face. Then, she raised the Heart of the Rising Sun in her hand.
"I'll definitely know the reason why you're collecting the Jewel Seeds!"
Fayette did not say anything else. Instead, she silently raised the magic device in her hand.
"I won't lose."
