Battle Harem of the Heavenly Sword

"Body. Locked in time. Can't grow. Infertile." Jade commented, the voice seemed more lifeless than usual.

*Clap Clap Clap*

"Hai! Hai! Stop it with the pity party. We don't know what will happen yet. We can ask him later when he comes back. For now, I recommend moving our stuff together."

Vanessa who saw that they would only go into a downward spiral forced the conversation to a topic that they needed to address. Because they made Starfall lose face, the odds of them returning to settle the score were very high.

"I agree, we should do that before Maximilian recovers. Take these, these are simple one-way messaging bangles I made. If you run into any issues, tap the gem and I will come to you."

Raylene gave Jade and Vanessa simple metal bangles that didn't look that good but made both the maid and the mummy look at them in awe.

Bewildered why neither was commenting on her present Raylene murmured in a low voice as she believed they didn't like them. The bangles came in a set of three with Raylene already wearing the third.

"I planned to give them to the first friends I made, but since I never got that far, I didn't have a use for them until now, It's fine if you do not like them."

Vanessa then embraced the fidgeting woman in a skull mask who was on the verge of crying. "I love them, Raylene, I can't believe you gave us something so precious. I will cherish it. And I consider you also as my sister so am extremely grateful."

Jade took hers and raise her other hand over the other bangles. She then chanted in a small voice. "[Silent Echo]."

The mage then tapped the gem. However words didn't reverberate out loud like normal, instead, the sounds came directly into the minds of Vanessa and Raylene. 'Added array. No voice needed. Works for one week.' Amazed the other two sent messages before praising Jade. 'That's amazing Jade!' 'I agree, that's amazing chibi-chan!'

Vanessa then crossed her arms as she thought of something. "Hmm, I need to add something too. Give me your bangles." She then pulled out a vial with orange liquid from under her skirt and popped the cork.

"I was saving this, but as my sisters, your lives are just as important as mine." The maid then spread the contents equally on the three bangles, the liquid didn't drip to the floor but instead bound itself to the bangles.

As the owner of the items, the moment the clear liquids were absorbed fully. the three women got a status alert.

When the system came into the world, It not only gave information on people but items as well, Jade who saw the information started to gingerly caress the bangles.

"Sisters…. Amazing. That fluid. Dragon's blood?"

Vanessa didn't say anything and just smiled. Raylene who saw the transformation that her bangles took, started to cry, her tears leaking from behind her mask. Although none of them stated it, the feelings behind their actions all showed one thing, they valued each other like family.

Rare couldn't even begin to describe how valuable Dragon's blood was on the market. Arrays were expensive, grafting arrays to objects even more so. While she did work on the bangles for months in her spare time, the value of their contributions made hers seem negligible. When she thought about how they gifted it to her for free, she couldn't help crying in joy and gratitude.

The system felt the emotion behind their actions and bestowed a miracle on the three girls. It also never lied; the item description gave the three of them insight into each other's hearts. Thus any hesitance in opening up to each other disappeared. Funny how, despite being near each other, it was only after falling for the same man that their bonds slowly started to form.

When the maid saw the tears of her masked sister, she also grew emotional and started to cry. Unable to endure anymore she then pulled Jade and Raylene into her arms as they shared a group hug. Even Jade who could no longer shed tears, trembled in happiness as she returned their hug.

The system got one thing right it was that they were all extremely lonely and looking for salvation. Now after finding both love and sisterhood. The three couldn't help but silently give thanks to the man who made it all possible.

Wiping her tears, Vanessa then exclaimed. "Let's get our things and bring them back here, I want to say 'welcome home' to Hiro when he comes back. I live in a dorm so moving is no issue. What about you guys?"

Raylene who still kept her hands on her mask answered in a low voice "I live in an empty stable in a barn, I can move immediately."

"Attic. Alchemy house. Can move too." Added Jade.

"There is only one room, but we can share the bed, we can just have Hiro sleep on a mat or something." The masked sister commented as she finally calmed down.

Vanessa then pumped her metallic fist in the air as she exclaimed. "Okay! Our first errand as sisters, let's pick up our stuff and come back here!"

Unfortunately, her cheers were met with silence. Raylene was mostly serious and didn't like noise. Jade became silent due to her condition, neither cheered usually. But due to seeing the deflated expression on their maid sister. Both raised their fists while making deadpan emotionless cheers.

Undeterred, Vanessa pulled the hands of the other two and started to run outside. She felt glad to be alive for the first time in a long while. Soon she will reunite with the man who stole her heart. Just thinking about him made her have butterflies in her stomach. She couldn't wait.
