In addition, I shall now announce my future projects:

For those of you thirsty for a Tanya or Toaru fic, you don't have to wait too long as I promise they should be started in 2022!

Look forward to those!

I woke up to a brown ceiling, along with my whole Battalion in the room as well, sleeping. Sphinx has somehow found a way to snuggle next to me, and Omega was beside me as well.

Careful to not wake the girls up, I snuck out of the room to go downstairs after getting dressed, and I checked my left arm. It's still pitch black, along with the pulsating skin.

If I remembered correctly, Dragon's Blood should heal you even after you cut certain body parts off, right? I personally don't want that disgusting substance covering me anymore, so, this might do it.

I suddenly slashed down at my arm in one fluid motion, severing it. Within moments, the severed arm suddenly disappeared into thin air, before my arm started regenerating without the Authority of Deceit. This time, I peeled off the black skin that covered my left arm, and underneath it is an arm with the silkiest skin I've ever seen.

"Unbelievable. I guess this is what it means to be compatible with things. You will always have great advantages." I said before entering a room, and surprisingly, there was someone waiting for me.

"Hm? Ana? Did you not sleep?" I said to the purple-haired girl, who sighed and rubbed her scarf a little.

"Well, Y/N-san, you definitely have to stay awake if you have to manage the safe shelter as it's leader, you know?"

"Come on, Ana, we all know even the best leaders need some sleep. Having rest is part of being strong. Besides, we need every single person to stay healthy, so leave the rest to me, 'kay?"

Anastasia chuckled a little in response and suddenly put her head on my shoulder. I was surprised by this intimate act, and for the first time in months, my face flushed.

"Uh... Ana, what are you... doing?"

"Aw... look at you, Y/N-san, being so caring yet also so dense at the same time..." Anastasia said as she leaned in closer. However, before she could continue, she fell asleep as she slid down onto my lap.

"Sigh... you are one workaholic." I said as I laid Anastasia on the couch in the room, before leaving. However, before I could step out of the door, a voice stopped me.

"Honestly, I couldn't tell at all if you actually like to help Ana or not..." The voice said as I suddenly went on alert, before realizing the owner of the voice.

"Oh... it's you. To be honest, I didn't think you would talk to me alone." I said as I faced the scarf of Anastasia, who began transforming into a white fox.

"Huh. Most people would be very shocked whenever I say something. Could it be that you knew of my existence?"

"Well, I have been indeed cursed with knowledge, in a sense. But, it was more of my contractor, since she gave me the hint. With a few things here and there, I think I was able to piece things together."
