The eerie pink moon hangs on the horizon of Kokoro Island. In Kurenai Village, inside a particular large residential house, documents scatter over the carpet. Lila, the one causing the mess, frantically moves from one drawer to another, trying to find any useful information. However, the result remains the same, prompting her to throw papers over the place, obscuring the fancy Japanese furniture.
—This is bad! Why does his Tama have to be Wisdom tier?
Anxiety can be traced in each move Lila makes around the room —it's big, but today it's oddly small.
The matter isn't something to scoff at. Wisdom Tier Tama users are hunted all over the world. Worse be it, a Tama like Shinji's, which can produce Rei —her man would be made into a lab rat, before having it taken away.
The Tama's ability to produce human bodies can be exploited by the old guys, who would transfer their souls into them to prolong their lives.
—No! No! No! This can't be happening! Not to my soulmate
Her eyes scan the surrounding papers. Although she has never taken her brother and father's research seriously before, now she is. Despite those two being under tight surveillance, no one knows what their initial Tama are. However, she suspects that both have Wisdom Tier Tama.
Her face turning grisly, her green eyes turn over to Shinji, who peaks his head out through the curtains to get a view of the outside world, with his hands behind his back. Although his face is blank, his mien is equanimous, not caring about the consequences of having a Wisdom Tier Tama —the best friend of Lila's big brother is in the White Room because of it.
Meanwhile, Shinji mutters with a smile:
"For a Shojo you live in such a poor house. I almost forgot, you're no longer the Shojo."
"I have my reasons!" She said, frustration visible in her voice, "Aren't you going to help me?!"
"Eh..."
The man in the scholar robes shrugs his shoulders, and her heart sank. Lila asked him to explain how his Tama works, but Shinji was oblique in his explanations, saying that she wasn't listening to him at first.
The two fought because of it. Thanks to seeing everything as a joke, Shinji won, without even raising his voice.
Lila looks at his innocent back, and tears start to form in her eyes.
—If only it were that easy. Although, the world is at peace, it's at its cruelest point. People randomly disappear because of saying or having the wrong things.
Sensing her gaze, Shinji shows a saturnine smile. Despite him acting nonchalant, he has been delegating a plan in his mind. Although he has confidence in his plan, he has to ask Lucien for assistance later.
At the moment, he has to calm down this mad girl before she loses her mind.
"Do you know why we like the First Tama-Artist?"
Lila's fury deepens upon hearing that question. She smacks her lips:
"Stop being delusional! He is just a fictional character. Can you believe, a world with moving objects that can carry more than 25 people without Tama?! The world is, and was always like this!"
Shinji sighs, he wants to tell her that his Tama proves that this world used to look that way. However, he answers his own question.
"Removing the fact that he was a hero, I like him because he was reckless. Born dirt poor like me, nothing ever went his way, and when he started growing, he was targeted by the strong. He had to lose a lot, to gain nothing, but kept on pushing through. Although he gave up on a lot of things, he didn't give up on what is dear to him. It's thanks to that he was harrassed and tortured, but they couldn't break him."
"It's a sad story, but his sarcasm covers it."
"Stop acting like my crazy brother! I don't want to hear those words!" Lila's voice becomes weak, as pity coats it, "Please focus on reality."
Shinji puts a serene smile.
"Do you know why they want to kill Dernier?"
Lila cringes, and moves some papers away from her thighs, in preparation to get up.
"This has nothing to do with my half-brother."
Although curious why she called his best friend half-brother, Shinji decides to ignore her.
"Lucien Derniere Etoile knows more than what meets the eye. He knows the events of the last Great War. I, for one, want to know more than him. I want to unravel the mysteries of heaven and earth. All the things they hide from us, I want to make it known."
"That's crazy."
"My dream is even more crazy."
Lila ignores him, as she stands up.
'I need something to cool my mind. My half-brother told me he is not serious, but I never thought its this much.'
Sighing, she turns around, only to see Shinji standing right in front her. As the raspberry scent penetrates her nostrils, Lila's heart skips a bit, forgetting her previous predicament.
"Are you with me?" Shinji asked.
His hands went over to her waist, but the thought of him suffering made Lila tear up. Meanwhile, Shinji kisses her for a few seconds, and whispers in her ear.
"There is no need to worry about me. I can use a single function of my Tama. Also, I can get another Tama to hide it."
Although trembling in delight from his sweet intonation, Lila blinks a few times.
—Isn't that the method my brother uses?! Why didn't I think of that?!
Her hands going over to Shinji's neck, she starts crying. She was worrying about useless things! There is no rule stopping one from having many Tama, and one wouldn't suspect him of awakening a Wisdom Tier Tama if he uses a single function on his Tama!!
Suddenly her tears stop pouring out, as she feels something loosen around her chest. Instantly, a pink blush covers her face, and her hands go over to Shinji's chest in an attempt to push him away.
"Wha...what d...did... you do?" Lila asked in a stuttering tone.
Shinji shrugs.
"I'm a man."
As Shinji's hands try to go somewhere precarious, Lila jerks back, saying: "Shinji, I wasn't honest with you before. I was born with the [Lust Body], and the more my lustfull desires are met, the stronger I get. So, you see, I'll only be using you."
Clicking his tongue, Shinji brings her closer to him, as his lips curl into a sly smile.
"Who cares about that? Woman, didn't I tell you about The Tree with Leaves of Many Colors? Now, it's time for the Main Character and the Female Lead to be immortal, together."
Before Lila can say a thing, Shinji suddenly gains the strength to carry her into a certain room, and the rest is history.
