The rising sun gave a rosy hue in the morning sky. Golden fingers of sunlight illuminated the scene. The light of dawn seeped into Ella's room. A girl woke up from her sleep even before the alarm clock had done its job.
Elysia opened her eyes and rubbed her slightly hazy eyes, then looked at the things around her. There were shining stars and various other beautiful celestial objects within the Soul Realm.
She woke up on a canopy bed, and Elana was still asleep beside her, hugging her body lightly. With a sudden blush, the shy girl moved the mischievous hand that lay full of well-being over her twin peaks and placed it on her tummy.
"Sister Elena, morning has come~ Let's wake up and enjoy the day." Elysia slightly shook the golden-haired girl's body with enthusiasm.
"Uhm... Ely, is it already six o'clock?" Elena answered without opening her eyes as if she wanted to sleep a little longer.
"Umm, not yet. It's still around dawn." Elysia checked the clock in the outside world before responding to that.
"Then let me sleep a little longer. The magic research class starts at eight, right? It's not seven o'clock like our first class last week, correct?" Elena gave an excuse while finding a comfortable position to get back to sleep.
"Well, if you want to sleep a little longer... Please take over to my body first. Ella and Eve will be surprised when they wake up if my body doesn't have a heartbeat, pulse, or warmth." Elysia denied the reason with plausibility.
"Good." Elena opened her eyes, nodded once, then closed her eyes again. She immediately took over Elysia's body as agreed.
As soon as she opened her eyes again, she realized she was lying on the canopy bed in Ella's room.
'Good morning, Sister Elena. Are you going back to your sleep for an hour longer?' Elysia conveyed her lovely morning greetings from within the Soul Realm.
'Good morning to you too, Ely. Hm, yes, that's a great idea. You can also sleep an hour longer. Later, the alarm will ring, and for sure I'll be woken up by Eve or Ella.' Elena didn't mind anything other than agreeing to the offer.
Simultaneously, she sought a comfortable position between the two girls, then closed her eyes again.
Elysia's attempt to remind girls about using blankets before bed was helpful. Her body was no longer flanked from both sides, but only the girls slept literally next to each other.
Elysia could only smile with a helpless expression when Elena had gone back to sleep in that short time. Even so, she also had no other choice but to go back to sleep. Today didn't have much activity, so it was better to use that short time to make up for the lack of sleep.
One hour didn't mean much for that extra sleep. The evil alarm sounded its ringing sound to signal that it was time to wake up.
Ella became the first girl to wake up. She reflexively turned off the alarm, then rubbed her eyes gently. It only took a little until her vision was clear. What she saw the first time was her friends. However, the girl who slept in the middle was still sleeping comfortably in the same position since last night.
Although wondering why Elysia slept peacefully without moving that much flustered her, Ella simply lifted herself into a sitting position. Well, she and Evelyn were moving in their sleep closer to the middle... They almost flanked Elysia one more time if the cuddle dolls weren't there.
"Ely, Ella, it's six o'clock. Let's get up, or we'll be late." Ella reached out her hand to slightly shake her friend's body in turn.
"Uhh... Let me sleep for five more minutes. My spirit is still in the world of dreams. Let her come back first." Evelyn squirmed a little and refused to wake up with a silly excuse. What could she do about that? Last night the girls went to bed quite late.
"Uhm, is it six o'clock? Ahh, Ely isn't up yet. Let me sleep five more minutes." Elena spoke like she was delirious. She slightly opened her eyes and realized that Elysia was still sleeping in the Soul Realm.
"He-hehe... What are you saying, Ely? You're still half awake. Yes, take your time and wake up when you're ready~" Ella softly chuckled because it sounded a little funny.
"You are a good girl. Thank you for your understanding." Elena smiled slightly, then took her hand around Ella's waist. Clear and sure, she pulled Ella into her arms as she used to do with Elysia's spirit.
"Kyah! Ely, what are you doing?" Ella was quite surprised, and her cheeks flushed slightly. She laid on her stomach on top of her friend.
"..." Unfortunately, Elena couldn't answer that because her face was immersed by the two heavenly twin peaks. Ella's fall position failed to predict. Elena was silenced by something soft without being able to breathe.
"Ely? Are you all right?" Ella lifted her body again after Elysia didn't answer and went limp after a few seconds had passed.
"Fuah. Huff... Puff... Is this what is said to be short of breath if immersed in heavenly welfare? I thought I would go to heaven if I was buried there a minute longer..." Elena gasped for breath with flushed cheeks.
She had never felt this way when hugging Elysia's spirit, not even for the night they had just spent together. It was like what her sweet little sister said last night.
"You're the silly one, Ely. Of course, you'd run out of breath if you buried your face in my cleavage. Never mind, now you're awake. So it's only Eve who needs to wake up." Ella blushed even more, following the girl who was blushing because of lack of breath.
However, she immediately dismissed it because they were both girls and only thought that her friend was just playing around or delirious.
"Eve, wake up, or I'll tickle you~ Now it's only you who haven't woken up yet." Ella hummed, trying to wake the girl who was still closing her eyes.
"Ella, you naughty girl." Evelyn opened her eyes while trying to protect her body from being tickled. She accused Ella because she heard the conversation a moment ago.
"Me, naughty? Why?" Ella tilted her head slightly with a large question mark.
"Uhm, nothing. Ely, let's wake up. What breakfast are we going to make, hmm?" Evelyn shook her head and refused to answer. She switched the topic in an instant.
"Okay, I'm awake. Hmm, the good breakfast for today is one that is rich in nutrients. The magic research class needs a decent brain performance... Yeah, today is big brain time!" Elena cheered on her assumption as she lifted herself against the gravity of the soft bed.
"Yay! Oatmeal and smoothies can be considered. Let's go to the kitchen and cook it together." Ella joined in the cheer with enthusiasm, following the atmosphere.
"Let's go!" Evelyn got carried away with enthusiasm that had some origins in it.
After that, the three girls went to the kitchen, but after Elena took the white cat. Vanessa could not be left behind because the scent of cooking from the kitchen would not reach Ella's room.
It was a delicious, healthy, and nutritious breakfast to start a wonderful morning. The girls eat their breakfast together and leave some dishes for the Pope.
Pope didn't come even after the girls waited for a moment. Maybe, because of last night's thing, about the two ancient books that were finally read in the full version.
The three girls rushed to get ready for the academy morning class. But Elena only woke Elysia while she was taking a shower... So naughty for the big sister.
Until the girls were lovely with their neat uniforms, beautifully styled hair by Elena, and fragrant scent. They went outside the Holy Cathedral with morning chirps of pleasant small talk.
"Ely, Eve, see you later. I hope your magic research class will be fun." Ella sent her prayer when they would part ways.
"En, have a nice day in your magic class too, Ella." Evelyn gave a light hand wave with a subtle smile.
"Hmm-hmm, see you later. Are you going to visit our class, Ella? Or Eve and I will do the opposite and visit your class?" Elena also waved her hand.
She questioned it for the sake of this good girl so that things like yesterday wouldn't be repeated. Waiting alone without prior notice was a bad idea.
"Ah, for that ... Today I'm going to finish with the magic class a little late because I want to take the extra class. En, you can go without me. I'll just go home after class." Ella thought for a moment as she put her finger on her chin, then answered with a smile in return.
"Extra class? Did something happen, Ella?" Evelyn asked with concern.
She didn't expect a platinum rank student to join the additional classes of the academy. Not to mention, the student in question was the Holy Princess.
"I just feel a little dissatisfied with a few things about my conventional magic. At the very least, I want to try my luck with the additional class." Ella confessed without hesitation or embarrassment.
"Oh, well, you are a vibrant girl. My prayers are with you for your success, Ella." Elena was happy to hear that, even Elysia agreed with her opinion. People with their passion were always splendid.
"Un, thanks, Ely. Bye-bye~" Ella waved her hand lightly, then walked away after receiving a response from her friends.
"All right, we need to hurry to the magic research class too, Eve." Elena lowered her hand, then turned away.
"Un." Evelyn nodded and put her hand on Elena's arm. They walked away together towards a specific building in the main academy building array.
