Packing up [59]
"nngh.."
Sarya finally woke up, the sun's tip was about to pop up from the ground. She felt a ticklish feeling on top of her exposed stomach, it felt like fingers were touching her with the fingers numbering in eight. However Sarya can't count the fingers based on feeling plus she just woke up so her senses aren't in the most sharpest condition.
The fingers quickly but surely went up towards her chest, it was certain that Sarya was about to commit murder when she finally gains control of her body. Before sleeping Sarya took of her leather armor so it wouldn't turn her into an oven while sleeping, leaving her with only basic clothes for the night.
Finally her neurons obeyed her. she lifted her body up to investigate however something was wrong, defienetly wrong, no one's hands were touching her or any people around in fact but when she looked down to check her chest that still had that ticklish feeling it was something else entirely. Every muscle fiber in her body tightened, blood cells rushed to their stations like soldiers, her heart slowly beated faster like a combustion engine's pistons.
A tiny but at the same time a giant huntsman spider was casually vibing on top of her chest doing nothing, it just sat there while casually staring at Sarya probably because it was curious. Sarya let out an ear bleeding scream that alerted almost all animals close to her, the spider jumped away and it's pretty sure that its not ganna let itself get beaten by curiosity.
Sarya was clearly awake now after that small incident, she breathed heavily with an expression that has seen the grim reaper face to face.
"oi.. Anything wrong?" Sieg asked
".... It's just a nightmare" Sarya quickly answered while scratching her bed hair
All of the party except for Sarya already ate, bathed, and ready to leave.
"uugh, why didn't you guys wake me up" she exclaimed
"isn't it rude to wake a sleeping person up? Besides we have all the time in the world" Kai answered
".. Fair enough..." Sarya mumbled
Egam was always alone, she had to do something in order to live. Magic has almost infinite possibilities and branches to freely explore, why not a branch that's dedicated to let magic take over your daily chores? like cooking, eating, taking a bath etc. Maybe this is one of the many reasons why Sarya wanted a mage in the party.

"hey.. Is it me or I feel like a maid" Egam said while grooming Sarya's bed hair
"no no you're contributing so much for the team" she said happily while enjoying herself
"..."
Egam really felt like a maid but she did felt a reward for doing this, something missing in her life suddenly filling up. A new group of friends? Or perhaps something similar to a family, nevertheless she did felt a missing gap in her body slowly filling up.
"aren't you ganna remove those scars?" Sarya asked
The streaks of scars was still clearly visible on her cheeks, it had a pinker color so it stood out from the rest of her skin. She stopped grooming Sarya for a while to touch her scars, it wasn't painful or anything but it did had some sort of meaning to it, maybe remembrance is the right word for it she thought.
".. nah, I think I'll keep it" Egam replied while continuing to groom Sarya's bed hair
"well..your choice" Sarya answered
After a good ten minutes or so, Sarya finally caught up with the rest. It was finally time to head out and leave the forest, Sarya wore her normal leather armor, Sieg wore his long sleeves with a small cape surrounding his back and chest, Kai had no fashion sense and Egam wore mage robes without the iconic wizard hat that everyone knew.
They walked away but they had the chance to check out the massive school once again from afar, the massive towers that pierced the sky were still there, the giant floating colosseum was quietly hovering above the clouds. It's like nothing ever happened, what once looked like hell was returned to normal by Harry's magic in a matter of seconds. Other than the school itself there was alot of dragons, airships, and whatever type of transportation the world had to offer was constantly going in and out of the school like busy ants.
"that must be the death aid Harry was talking about" Egam said to the others
The party quietly watched the ants going about their death aid and suddenly Sarya's scabbard interrupted them, she slowly unseathed her white blade only to find the same thing again.
"not this agai-
The sword started to violently drag her towards the east again but this time she was prapared to tame the blade. Sieg and Kai quickly followed Sarya while Egam was caught off guard by what just happened, soon after hesitating she grabbed her staff to fly towards them like a witch.
