A few days have passed back at Sakuru as Lily and the rest of the girls were trying out theri new equipment which were created just recently.

Using their method of fighting, Lily managed to use these clothes as a way to boost not only their mental strength but also their general reflexes.

“This is amazing! My body feels so light!” Chloe expressed her thoughts in astonishment while moving her body around.

“That's because the crystal is providing you with pure energy. Using the element within the suit you are wearing, you are not only able to pull the limits out of your body, but also go beyond it to a level you have never thought you could reach before.” Lily explained as she was checking Chloe’s vitals, using her own tablet which was connected directing to her suit.

Chloe was wearing a dark tight cloth which had green lines connected at the center of the costume which provided the necessary energy for protection and strength.

As a weapon, Chloe had two dark daggers with green glowing blades which could even cut steel as easy as cutting butter.

That's what amazed Chloe the most as she understood the sharpness that was held in those two blades.

“That's amazing… I can’t wait to try it out.” The assassin girl said as she looked at the equipment she was wearing.

On the other hand were Ichika and Hina who were also handed similar clothes. And as for their weapons, was given a dark modern bow and a powerful crossbow on which were also boosted by their own suits.

“We can make our own weapons, so why do we need this?” Hina asked out of her curiosity as she was looking at the small girl that was looking at her own tablet.

Everyone had already experimented and explained their own powers to Lily, that's why she found it a bit confusing on why she had to use physical equipment.

“Try pouring your own energy within those weapons.” Lily suggested without even bothering to see what those girls were doing. But on her tablet, it could be seen as she was carefullying observing everyone in case that something would be going wrong.

Failure was not an option for her anymore.

“Huh? I-It’s really warm!” Hina’s form went rigid in shock as she noticed the way her crossbow reacted to her.

“It's also really light…” Hina also reacted as she gently pulled the string of her own bow, releasing warm green particles at her sudden touch.

“By using them, you now will be able to create even more powerful attacks. I’ve been observing the core of your ability, and created these tools which are adjustable at will.” The white coated girl continued explaining while pointing her finger to their weapons. “Your bow is specialized in both long and close ranged shooting and it causes destructive damage upon landing on your target.”

And as she finished explaining Ichika’s bow, she looked at Hina who also was listening with great care. “While your crossbow is used for long range shooting, it is really precise with its aim and it can pierce anything that finds in its way. You may as well call it the most powerful sniper. Also, it has an automatic reload so you don’t need to pull the string just like the girl over there.”

After Lily was done explaining her weapon, she glanced towards a certain white haired girl who had cat ears and a tail.

When she first tested Shiro, she was a bit surprised to see that her cat parts were actually attached to her own body. And what she discovered was how her ears and tail were actually the source of her power.

“....” But what surprised Lily the most was the fact that Shiro had the same blood type as her own brother. Their genes did not match any part of her family, that's what she found a bit confusing at first.

[ But leaving that matter aside, this girl seems really stupid. It's almost as if she was a five year old in a grown ups body… ] Lily thought as she continued observing this catgirl who was sulking at the thought that she wasn't able to show off her new outfit and weapon to her beloved master.

After having this catgirl tested in different ways, Lily had managed to develop some kind of bracelets which would boost her inhuman strength and a strong barrier to help her move with her flexibility.

While the twin sisters, which were the weakest from the whole group, were also provided with a special kind of suit and bracelets which could boost their own abilities ten fold.

[ Now… lastly… ] Lily said to herself as she was observing the silver haired dragon with unsure looks.

What she found shocking was her insane amount of energy that this girl held within her body.

It was amazing for such a young girl to have such unbelievable powers.

But even her surprise was absorbed by her curiosity as she soon figured out the reason why Akemi held this much power.

[ None of the suits fitted her…] Lily thought while trying to figure out a way to help her out. [ She is indeed a dragon, but we need to find a way to boost her abilities to the fullest. We can’t go unprepared. ]

“I’m not wearing that weird cloth no matter how much you stare at me. They bother my skin and they are hard to move.” Stated Akemi after noticing the gaze from the white coated girl.

“No, I don’t plan on doing such a thing anymore. It was obvious that your body was absorbing all of its energy no matter how complex I made it.”

Akemi slightly smirked as she understood how much the young girl underestimated a dragon.

“But I think I have the best thing for you…”

But to Akemi surprise, Lily responded back to her with another soft smirk as she started taking notes on her tablet.

The next day, the whole group, which was fully equipped with their new protection and costumes, were led to a certain underground open arena where they would be testing their new gadget they had received.

And seeing this as a great opportunity to get used to their new powers, all of the girls were at least sparring with one another.

Chloe was sparing with Shiro, Hina with Ichika, and the twin sisters which were on standby in case someone would get injured.

Or that's how it was supposed to go until some individuals could be seen entering the area as well.

While to others they may seem like some random students with uniforms, but to Lily… Let's just say that she wasn’t in the mood to see them here.

“That's unexpected to see people in here.” Tatsuya commented while from behind him, some of the strongest students of the country were following after him.
