Manga World: Bringing Steam Technology to the World of Sanctuary

Although Usagi was thinking of taking the bus, Christel opted to take a taxi. She is a person who prefers to spend money if it saves time, so they quickly arrived at the Tsukino family's house.

Ignoring the -tails- that chased her in the shadows, Christel greeted Mrs. Tsukino, Usagi's mother is called Ikuko, and leaving aside the dark violet hair color, she has a great resemblance to her daughter Usagi, dark brown eyes and freckles. She is a very strict but very loving mother, this is demonstrated when she greets Christel with a hug when she meets her.

"What a beautiful girl, I just talked to your mother Lluvia-san, she's waiting for you to send her a message when you're here."

"Of course Mrs. Tsukino, I sent you a message now"

"Just call me Ikuko, you don't have to be so polite, you can make yourself at home"

"Okay, Ikuko-san"

"What a cute girl, I can't believe you're barely 11 years old and you're already in your third year of high school, you should learn something from her Usagi-chan..."

Mrs. Tsukino looked at her daughter beside her who she has always been struggling with to study.

"I'm not as smart as Ikuko-san thinks, I'm just doing my best..."

"Mom, school is so hard... Wait, what do you mean, 11 years old? Christel, are you 11? Did you skip grades?"

Usagi was surprised to hear the news of Christel's age. She always thought she was the same age as Christel is in her third year of high school while she is in her second year of high school, so she has always believed that Christel is at most a year older than her. Now she knows why she is 10 centimeters (actually 15 centimeters) taller.

"Actually, well, previously my schools wanted to advance me in years, but mom never agreed, but now that we moved and changed schools, some things led to me being advanced in school years..." 'Actually it was because Sona and Tsubaki confused my age with Koneko's so they enrolled me in their class, when they realized it was too late, plus my exam grades and competition diplomas proved that I was ahead in school grades'

"Well, come in Christel-chan, don't stay at the door. Let me introduce you to my son Shingo, he is also very intelligent and has excellent grades unlike his older sister..."

"uhg" (imaginary) arrow in Usagi's chest.

"...He is very responsible, and all his classmates and teachers at his school love him, unlike his older sister..."

"ugh, ugh" another (imaginary) arrow in Usagi's chest.

"... But on your mother's recommendation, it is better not to advance him in school years, and let him mature in his same social environment, and live with children his age, Shingo come and say hello, this is Christel Oudara Velky, a friend of your sister, she will stay with us tonight."

A little boy was in the living room sitting on the carpet, apparently doing his homework next to a little girl. The boy has green eyes and blond hair, Christel doesn't know where the blond-haired children of a mother with violet hair and a father with dark brown hair came from, she can only attribute it to hidden European genes somewhere in the family ancestors. The girl has reddish-brown hair and beautiful blue eyes, she looks like a little porcelain doll in her light lavender dress with a white blouse, white knee-high socks, and flat shoes of the same color as the dress.

"Christel, this is my son Shingo, and his classmate Mika Kayama"

"Heee, are you friends with my older sister? I heard that you study at Kuoh Academy where they say it's difficult to enroll since you have to have excellent grades to study there. How did you become friends with someone like my sister?"

"Shingo! Your older sister, Yo, also has her prestige and connections, perhaps after I graduate, I will enter Kuoh Academy to study in high school..."

"Sister, you? With what qualifications?"

"Usagi-chan, if you manage to get into Kuoh Academy, I myself will have no qualms about paying for your tuition and an apartment near the Academy for you to live in."

"You... have no confidence in your eldest daughter or elder sister..." Usagi, with (imaginary) arrows on her body, feels dejected by her family's lack of belief in her and her studies, although she herself doesn't know if she would be able to get into Kuoh Academy, since her grades are terrible.

'Poor Usagi, hehehe, but this girl, if I remember correctly, should be attacked by Nephrite soon. I don't know if she has recovered from her beating last weekend, but she must be in a hurry to gather energy. The mud golem she creates hasn't made a move yet, but I better leave another one safe. And at the same time test its effectiveness...'

"I think that if Usagi wants to enter Kuoh Academy it won't be difficult for her, and if she wants I could help her with her studies. Besides, the Academy has just opened its doors to male students this year, so there's no problem for Shingo to enroll if he wants." 'Also, Kuoh Academy's admission line has dropped a lot or people like Issei and his team with whom to form the Perverted Trio would not have been able to enroll,' Christel said with a smile and clear support for Usagi Tsukino.

"Hello, Shingo-san, Mika-san, you can call me Christel, Mika-san I have a gift, I hope you like it..." With that, Christel opened her suitcase and took out a small black cat doll with a moon on its forehead and handed it to Mika.

"...I was going to give it to Usagi, but since she already has the original Luna, I'll give you Pocket Luna, her name is Poke-Luna."

"It's very beautiful, thank you Christel-san"

"Shingo, I have one here, it's called Poke-Sun, do you want it?" Christel pulled out another cat model, but it's white with a sun mark on its forehead.

"Miaou?" 'Sun? But we cats are all children of the moon...' Luna, in Usagi's arms, was first excited to see that Christel had made a doll version of herself and it made her feel happy, but when she took out a white cat with a sun mark on its forehead she felt strange, since Artemis is white, but with a moon on its forehead like her.

"Heee, No. I don't like cats Christel, in fact I'm afraid of them..."

"But if you have a cat, Luna, in the house, then I will keep it..."

"...But Christel, aren't they supposed to be for me, because I haven't received it?"

"Hehehe, Usagi-chan~ On second thought, I have a more suitable gift for you to have... Taran, her name is Poke-Diana, and she is the Daughter of Poke-Luna..."

"Miaou!!?" 'Daughter? What daughter do I have?' Luna almost jumped out of Usagi's arms.

"Calm down Luna, she said she's Poke-Luna's daughter, not yours..."

"Meow Miaou Miao~" Luna has to pretend she's a normal cat.

"Hehehe, I don't know, maybe in the future Luna will have little kittens and one will be called Diana..." Christel playing a trick on the purple-black kitten while she pets her and gives the small doll of a gray kitten with red eyes to Usagi.

"hehehehe~" Obviously Usagi is happy to receive something from Christel, and she will keep it along with the moon ring that she has in secret, but that her mother has already seen, but since she did not examine it in detail she does not know that it is expensive thinking that it is only a toy.

These dolls that Christel has made, have a rune-based enchantment from the world of Sanctuary, with the teachings of Akara, Malachar and Lyara, she has practiced enchanting weapons and armor with various attack and defense attributes. Leaving aside the enchantment of weapons with elements and poisons, these cats have a passive purification enchantment and help the owner to have better vision in the dark, and have an active enchantment that creates a mana shield around the owner when in danger.

The main and most basic enchantment is a small array that gathers energy from the environment, absorbing and refining this energy to turn it into mana and thus maintaining the passive enchantment and recharging the active enchantment. In the near future, Christel is not only planning to add attack enchantments, but also to create better enchantments and add them to the rings she bought so that those close to her are safe.

So, Christel put her luggage in Usagi's room, who convinced her to sleep together, they went downstairs to have lunch, prepared by Mrs. Tsukino, and then upon her recommendation and Usagi's reluctance, took Shingo and Mika to the movies with them, ruining the thought of having a date alone with Christel.

Meanwhile, not far from the Tsukino family home.

"Sona-sama, according to the informant we have within Serafall-sama's company, Christel's assistant Reiko has made arrangements at the hotel -The Ritz-Carlton- and I have already reserved all the rooms on the floor where Christel-sama will be staying."

"...ara~ Sona-chan, it's unbelievable that you have a spy in your sister's company, but it's good that you've fixed up all the rooms in the apartment where Christel will be staying this weekend in Kyoto."

"ara~ Rias-chan, it's amazing that you have a house near the location of the girl called Usagi Tsukino. And you didn't even know it, if not because you just called your subordinate. Also, those rooms are mine, don't think about it..."

"Sona-chan, you're staying at my house, why aren't you going to share the rooms you just booked with me..."

"Rias-chan..."

"..."

"Tsubaki-san, we can order food to be delivered, I don't think our Kaichos-samas are in the mood to arrange meals."

"Mmmm. Well, what do you think we should order..."

"I want Chinese food.."

"Anything for me..."

"Italian food..."

"Anything with meat is fine..."

"Eating meat is good, but you should also order salads..."

"How about fish and seafood..."

And so, while the group of demons organize what they are going to eat today, and watch their presidents fight as usual, in a park near the location of the Gremory (newly acquired) and Tsukino family demon houses, there is another group of four girls and a white cat.

"Isn't it strange that Usagi didn't invite us out today and instead met up alone with Christel-san?"

"He's been acting weird this week, he just looks at his phone and smiles, he also has it as his wallpaper and other photos of Christel"

"Do you think he likes it?"

"I like it, and Minako has already kissed Christel..."

"Be... Bes... Makoto, that was an accident, it was the fault of that clumsy boy named Rito..."

"It is impossible for Usagi to fall in love with that girl, Her destined love is the prince of the land Endymion..."

"But Artemis, like everyone else, that prince was also reborn and he doesn't necessarily have to be reborn as a man, couldn't he have been reborn as Christel?"

Rei proposed a theory and was pretty much right about Christel's rebirth and the theory that you won't necessarily be reborn in the same sex as your previous life. But he is wrong about Christel's past life and her origins.

"Rei-san is impossible, if Prince Endymion is supposed to have been reborn along with us, he should be the hidden character who calls himself Tuxedo Mask, and that day, he was at the same time as Christel..."

"Ami, remember that when Tuxedo Mask appeared, we were separated from Christel and the others, so we can't be sure that they are different people. Also, don't you think it's strange that Tuxedo Mask followed us as if he knew we were going to be attacked..."

"Rei, but..."

"Well, are we going to stay here or are we going to Usagi's house to ruin her date..."

"Makoto, don't say things like ruining their date."

"But if it was Minako's idea to interrupt Usagi and Christel's date because she was jealous..."

"Makoto! I'm not jealous of Usagi and Christel being alone or going on a date or staying over at her house..."

'... Yes, she's jealous' x3 + a cat.

"..."

At the Tsukino family home.

"Even though I don't like the idea of going to the movies with my dumb sister, I'll reluctantly agree to go with Christel to help me finish my math homework."

"Shingo-san, you shouldn't say such things about Usagi-senpai..."

"Thank you Mika-chan..."

"...you shouldn't tell people they're stupid, even if they are stupid"

"Ugh" 'Mika-chan, why T.T'

"Mika-chan, what movie do you want to watch?"

"Uhmmm I think it just came out..."

And so, a group of four people left the Tsukino family home to go to a nearby mall to watch a movie in the theater, then go play and shop, or whatever else was coming up, unaware of Usagi that her long-awaited date with Christel will be further thwarted by her fellow magical warriors.

"ugh..T.T"
