It was a slightly later morning than usual.
Waking up, Rin leisurely stepped out of her room and headed down the stairs.
And then... she hit a wall.
'Ouch.'
Rin stopped in her tracks, her forehead bumping against something solid. Thinking she had walked into a wall because she wasn't fully awake yet, she lifted her head, but there was nothing in front of her.
However, upon closer inspection, she could discover a transparent veil, nearly invisible to the eye, blocking the way.
Having experienced this several times already, Rin identified the culprit immediately.
'Mika! I told you not to use it inside the building!'
'Fufu....'
At the bottom of the stairs, she could see Mika sitting on a sofa in the lounge visible from a distance. She was clutching her ornate staff and wearing a smug smile toward Rin.
Ever since receiving that staff, Mika had been using magic everywhere, regardless of the time or place.
