Priorities of an Admin

"If it's for her, it's gotta be the best! Top quality everything! Hehe. Even this crystal, I just gotta make it work together!"

Symphony stood alone, her usual attire replaced with a set of soothing gear. Her slender back was left open to the elements, while the majority of her body was heavily clothed with flame resistant gear and high powered tools hung from her waist. Her forge was blazing, lighting her face in the dim room. Beside her, ingots and vials rested alongside the crystal. Nearby, a sword with a soft orange hue rested against the wall.

"Got my mats. Got my gear. Let's do this! Hehe."

Her soft giggles and movements no longer matched as her hands went to work. The forge, heavily lit, had the Counter Blade thrust deep into the coals. It slowly began to glow, not a molten color but a vibrant blue shining wildly.

"Good, good. Now to melt the ingots over here..."

Placing the five Spectral Ingots into a second forge, lit even more fiercely than the first, Symphony watched them melt slowly. The liquid left behind was quickly given the very same treatment, the Counter Blade deeply plunged up to the hilt.

"Hmm. Treating this sword like this is weird. The instructions say to do it this way, but really? 'Make the Counter Blade counter the flame.'... the hell? Ugh... just need to work with it. She will definitely be happy, but maybe the side project will get me some extra love? Hehe."

Her eyes shifted to another pile of ingots, as well as a special mold. Symphony had her smirk fade as her eyes grew serious.

"What the... how?! I couldn't even scratch these guys at your level!"

Justice pulled her sword from the body of the last monster. It's body began to fade as Noa scowled towards her sister.

"You seriously... ugh. No fair! Counter damage is way too OP!"

Rosa watched with her arms crossed, but her eyes betrayed her feelings. Even she was surprised by the power held by Justice at the moment.

"Rosa! This isn't fair!"

She could only nod, her eyes never leaving Justice as she quickly delved back into the hostile monsters.

"She's evading almost everything. The passive regen I put on her is barely even being useful at this point. Your sister is crazy, my love."

Her eyes flicked towards Noa, who was excitedly watching Justice mow down her opponents.

"To think she's only just become a Champion, yet she's already going wild against these things."

Justice pulled back, shifting her hair back over her shoulder. With a tiny huff, she sat down near Noa and Rosa.

"Hair is weird here. I kept feeling like it'll get in my face, but it kept stopping just shy."

Noa teased her own hair.

"Yeah. It's how it works. How haven't you noticed before?"

"Had helmets. The hair was hidden under it, but this is what it's actually like since I got my Vengeance Tiara."

As monsters began to spawn, Justice got back to her feet and dusted herself off.

"So... hit level forty, then head back to Sym?"

Noa and Rosa could only nod as she dashed back into the thick of the enemies.

-

"Hnnnngghaaaah! Yay! Finally finished the sword. It's... really heavy. Oh?"

[Only equippable by a Vengeance Knight.]

"Pfft. Damn straight. Can I set it... yes! It's in my inventory. At least it didn't say anything about that... and her special present is done too! Hehe!"

Stretching a little more, Symphony allowed the forges fire to die out. As she left the room, she let out a long breath with a bright smile on her face.

"Champion gave some small boosts, but it's still pretty good. Now I just need to hit Vengeance Knight, but I need some more of the gear. Any ideas?"

Rosa had her hand on her chin.

"Maybe a small raid? Might need to wait until you get your sword, but your little lady on the team should also help a good deal."

Noa approached Justice with soft steps, her face holding a small bit of worry.

"Your arm... erm... I know it hurt you in our world, but now?"

Tilting her head, Justice could hardly hold back her laugh.

"I know you get ditzy, but really? This is an avatar, not my actual body. I don't think... wait what?"

Looking down at her arm, she saw a strange glow emanating from it. She reached out with it, the glow growing until she felt as if she touched a wall.

[Would Upper Admin Justice like to access the Warp Station?]

"Erm. Warp Station?"

Noa and Rosa seemed clueless, but Justice gave a small nod in confirmation. A stream of light appeared under her feet, prompting a new message.

[Warp -player name- to -destination-?]

"M-Mai! What the hell is this?! I can force warp other players?!"

Noa and Rosa's jaws fell as they heard her words, although a small smile spread on Justice's face.

[Warp -Symphony- to -my position-.]

"She already said she finished, so let's try this!"
