“Hmmm!!!”

Nox wakes up from her 12-hour sleep.

“Mmmm….”

She looks around to find Cirrus already gone to whatever this day had for him.

She gets up and walks out and into the bathroom.

Brush!

Gargle!

Spit!

She finishes brushing her teeth and takes a shower.

“Mmm….”

Scrub!

“… Damn, my shampoo and conditioner are running out. Guess I have to stop by the store and get more.”

She gets out and dries herself off.

“(Genesis Light.) [White Night].”

Water on her body instantly vaporized off her body.

“Little hot.”

She opens the window and the heat and steam leave the bathroom.

She reaches into her shadow and dresses in inconspicuous clothing and returns to Cirrus’s room, where she does her hair.

12:42 PM

She comes down for breakfast.

“Mmmmm~♥!! So good!!! Aunty Lenoa they're so good!!”

“Kihihihihi!! You are very welcome Nox sweetie! When you're out, can you get me some of the new books on herbs at Alma’s Herbs?”

“Sure thing! I was going around that area, anyway!”

She finishes eating and puts the plates in the sink.

“Say, where did Cirrus go?”

“He said he had a warehouse to bust with those of the Astraea Familia.”

“Them…” she said quietly in a bitter tone. “No matter so long as they don’t say something so heartless like last time, they won’t see what I or Cirrus are-!”

In her hands, she noticed the plate started to get cracks.

‘Shit.’

She calms herself down with a deep breath.

“I’ll buy some new ones.”

“Better or else I'll slip a little something into your food next time,” Lenoa said with a grin.

1:29 PM

Walking through the streets in an outfit that covers all but her face, she walks towards the west main street.

“Hey there, pretty lady! Wanna—“

“Hey—“

“Wanna spend—“

Nox ignores all the catcalling as she walks into the bookstore.

“Do you have a new book on herbs?” She said to the blushing store owner.

“Y-yes! I’ll go get it!”

He hurried along as Nox looked out the window to see several adventuring heading to the dungeon and a few-

“Stop! Thief!!”

Crimes.

“Here you go, miss!” said the shopkeeper with a smile.

“Hmmm, here you go.” Nox puts down the precise amount of Valis and takes the book and places it in her bag.

“Thank you for your patronage!” he said.

“Bye-bye!” she said with a smile as she leaves the store.

Once outside, she could see a light gray-haired werewolf with dark skin running along the rooftops and jumping down.

“You're under arrest!! If you continue to struggle, I will use force!!!”

“Y-you werewolf bitch!!!”

“I told you!!”

With a kick to the back of the thief’s head, he was knocked out. She got the stuff that was stolen and handed it back to the seller.

As she dragged the thief away, the people clapped for her duty.

Nox didn’t pay it any mind and continued with her list of things to do.

1:57 PM

Now in the north main street, she walks down a set of stairs to find several beauty stores. She enters one called Lucidum.

“Ah! Nox!!” said the cashier.

“Hello!” Nox said, removing her hood and letting down her hair. “I’m here to get some shampoo and conditioners.”

3:42 PM

After getting her beauty supplies and some new plates, she goes to an alley and puts her stuff in her shadow. She then makes her way to the east main road and enters a rather unpopular café.

“The usual miss.” Said the elderly man.

“Yup!” Nox puts down the Valis and goes to her spot by the window that had lovely flowers growing.

As she waited for her food and drink to come, she rests her head on her right arm and looks at the sea of adventures.

“… Hey sir, how long have you been running this shop?”

“Hmm…. about 20 years now, I suppose.”

“20 years, huh?” She looks around to find only people around the owner's age. “Do you have any new blood?”

“Somewhat, but they always come in trying to meet you, Miss Nox.”

“Fufu… I hope you charge them expensively.” She said with a slight smile.

“Hahaha!! These children always go after a beauty far out of their reach and end up regretting it!”

“Then let’s hope you emptying their wallets is one of them.”

He comes and brings her a slice of cake and a cup of tea.

She enjoys her peaceful time in this shop until it is time for her to leave.

“It was a nice cup of tea and cake, sir.” She said, giving a slight bow.

“Not at all! Come again soon!”

4:21 PM

Nox arrives back home and gives Lenoa her books and plates. She placed her stuff in the bathroom. She walks outside and takes a deep breath.

“Haa… Cirrus, where are you at?”

‘I’m currently busting an illegal item warehouse. Turns out they had a few more extra places.’

“That’s good, but where are you? I finished all that I had to do.”

‘Ah sorry, I’m currently in the east-south section of the city. It borders Daedalus.’

“Shit really? That place is pretty much a thieves' paradise from how complicated it all is, with all the nooks and crannies to hide.”

‘Yeah… it's annoying, at least I’m fast.’

“I heard you're also working with the Astraea Familia on this one, they’re not… you know?”

‘… They're fine for now. It seems they learned to keep their bounds.’His voice held some displeasure, but nothing too bad.

Nox sighed a breath of relief, but she still wanted to be there.

“I’ll be coming to help!”

‘Thank! Do you want me to summon you or…’

“It's fine. Flying feels better!”

In a quick flash of light, she turned into an owl and flew off.
