Extra 1: Getting to know the Crescent Moon Alliance

It had been a few days since Serara and the gang had been in Akihabara since the rescue mission. As they came back with Serara, Maryelle announced to the whole guild and group that they will be celebrating the comeback of Serara as well as Shiroe's group.

Nayu was walking down a hallway watching people pass by her with either ingredients or boxes of decorations. She eventually stopped as she faced the door of Maryelle's office knocking on it as she let out a breath she didn't know she held. "Maryelle, may I come in?"

"Ah Nayu, here come in." Nayu heard from inside.

With the okay, Nayu moved her hand to the door knob and opened the door walking into the office to see full stacks and yet more stacks of white paper that filled almost half of the room. Right in the middle of the stacks was Maryelle sitting at her desk stressing out, until she saw Nayu. As Maryelle got one glance, she stood straight up from her desk and landed a bear hug right at Nayu.

Maryelle was in the air with her arms wide out. "NAYU!"

Nayu tried to move away, but it was too late as she was caught by Maryelle and is stuck in a bear hug. Nayu is now on the ground on her knees with Maryelle hugging her by the waist.

"Ah Nayu~, I am glad that you came to visit." Maryelle held Nayu tightly as she snuggled into her side.

Nayu moved her head downwards and looked at Maryelle with a blue face. "A-Ah...H-Hello Maryelle."

Nayu was going to faint until Maryelle eventually release her hold, to her relief. Nayu looked at where Maryelle jumped over to see Henrietta with a gleam in her eyes and a clipboard in her arms. Seeing the situation, Henrietta must have slapped her clipboard on Maryelle's head. Nayu stood up letting out a breath of relief thinking the chaos is over, until she meet eye to eye with Henrietta, one thing...bad move.

Henrietta looked at Nayu with a hue on her face and went over to her and hugged her. "Ah! NAYU!"

While Henrietta was hugging and petting Nayu's head, Maryelle got up and was pouting because of Henrietta. Maryelle walked over and stood next to Henrietta rubbing the spot on her head that she got smacked on. "Man Henrietta, even if we've known each other for a long time, you still do this in Elder Tales."

Nayu widen her eyes and did a double look at the two guild members. "Eh! You guys know each other outside of Elder Tale."

After saying that, Henrietta and Maryelle grabbed Nayu by one arm each and dragged her and sat her at one of the sofas with one of them on each side. When they sat down, they let go of Nayu's arms and looked at the set of tea and snacks set on the coffee table. Feeling the nostalgic atmosphere, Nayu looked at the two from her spot. "Then, how did you guys meet in the real world?"

Maryelle took a plate with cake and gave it to Nayu before looking at her. "Henrietta and I met in our university days and since then we've been very close."

"Eh...I see." Nayu took a bite of cake.

"It's great that we were able to be together even after the apocalypse." Maryelle looked over to Henrietta.

Nayu looked up from her cake and noticed that Maryelle and Henrietta looked at each other with soft looks that showed that their relationship as friends was really close. After a few seconds, Maryelle stopped looking at Henrietta and looked down at the nibbling Nayu.

"Nayu, I hope it's not a bother but, can you maybe help our guild members prepare for Serara's party?" Maryelle looked at Nayu with a bit of worry.
