At least Material-L kept true to her word and set her electricity based spells to stun the opponents rather than kill. “So, do you know your way around here, Sette-chan?”
The Combat Cyborg had to be careful not to give into the urge to point out the dozens and dozens of mistakes in Rai’s ‘Escape Plan’. “I believe I had previously stated that I have not memorized the prison layout outside of the low-risk wing. I cannot assist in navigating to the airlock.”
“Airlock?” asked the Fate replica in a puzzled tone. “We don’t need no stinking airlock!”
“You… did not park your vessel there?” Sette could only ponder what military authority would have someone such as this Material-L carry out an apparently vital mission that could have ramifications across the universe.
“Nope! I just need to get back out to the stars and we’ll be on our way! And to do that, I gotta find one of those outer walls or whatever they’re called.” She looked around, not finding any familiar places she passed. “Looks like I’ll have to do this the Ken-chan way.”
“…… what?” For some reason, Sette had an odd feeling about this.
**********
“Just what could those things be?” mumbled the Lord of Darkness under her breath as she continued observing the behaviour of those cloaked objects that orbited the hidden world. They had been dormant at the beginning but now, it seems that they shifted to standing by for a possible order from whoever is controlling them.
“What things?”
She had been so lost in thought that she didn’t hear the door behind her open. “How is the peasant doing, Material-S? Has he calmed down?”
“Yes, he has. In fact, he believes that he has discovered a way to ensure that we stay on our flight path. Apparently, the reason why we kept jumping off course each time was our power levels naturally distorting the space-time fabric,” replied the Nanoha replica.
“That would make sense-” She paused when she saw how differently her companion moved as she sat down right beside her. Her movements were no longer sluggish. In fact, Yami could probably say that Material-S moved with the grace of a nightingale. There was only possible explanation. “I see you took the time to get a proper recharge. How did that go?”
“I didn’t realize you were interested in finding out more details about my intimacy with Yuuno-san,” said Seikou with the closest thing to a mischievous smirk on her face, causing Material-D to turn around and conceal her blushing face.
“I’m only asking to make sure that your mana levels have been properly replenished and to make sure that the moron hasn’t been left in poor condition after you finished with him! I’m not interested in hearing your perverted stories!”
“Then, why don’t you tell me yours?”
“Excuse me?” She was caught off guard by that question and by the way Material-S had asked her. “What do you mean by that?”
“Back on the planet Tenrei… the spell that you used to disintegrate those six bodies, how much mana did it require?” asked the Starlight Destroyer.
“What does that have to do with anything?” snapped Yami.
“If my memories on that spell serves me correctly… you need 200,000 for the base damage plus taking into account multiple targets to be affected by the spell… I would say one would be looking around a total of 800,000 points. Am I correct?”
The Hayate replica nodded. “That sounds reasonable but you still haven’t told me where you’re going with your reasoning.”
“Back when Yuuno-san performed the emergency transfer procedure on me, I was able to feel the aura of his Linker Core while we were linked together. I can estimate that his total magical point values are somewhere around one million points at most. And after that skirmish near Mercadia, your levels must have dropped to around 200,000 points since you entered a high state of mana burnout. If Yuuno-san had done the exact same transfer process on you as he did to me a few days ago, then you never could have cast the spell on those bodies in the first place without reverting back to a burnout state. I have to conclude…” Seikou pointed a finger right in front of the other woman’s face. “… that you have bedded him as well.”
‘Why is she playing detective all of a sudden?’ Yami sighed in irritation before addressing the Nanoha replica. “Okay… I admit that I did those things with him. Are you bothered that you were not his first?”
The red clad woman lowered her arm. “A little but there’s something else I would like to discuss with you. More importantly, how exactly did you convince him to use that alternative replenishment process in the first place?”
“…… so that’s what you want to know,” murmured Material-D.
“Yuuno-san seemed quite adamant not to go through with that method initially. He said that the first time should be shared between those who care for each other deeply. So I am curious on how you managed to make him see otherwise, Lord of Darkness.” Seikou’s words were polite but there was something in her body language that made it clear that she knew Yami had influenced their male companion in some way and she wanted to know the exact nature of that influence.

‘Whoever this Ken-chan person is, he certainly has no sense of subtlety if Material-L’s method of navigating is any indication,’ thought Sette to herself as the Fate replica gleefully brought up one of her legs. “If I may, I would like to point out that this is extremely counterproductive to our objective of escaping the facility without a trace.”
“Doing things quietly? That’s ninja stuff. When it comes to Magical Girl Warriors, the audience expects lots of explosions! Powered by Truth! Justice! Freedom! Reasonably Priced Love! And a hard-boiled egg! I can’t disappoint the readers now, can I?”
*CHOOM*
And there went wall number four.
Sette could only wonder how many more walls Material-L is going to kick down until she got to where she needed. She passed through the newly made access and noticed how plain the hallway. No signs of technology anywhere. Just a few plain cells… with one of them holding a familiar face that had waken up after the loud intrusion from Material-L knocking down a wall.
“Sette?”
“…… Uno…”

Oh, right, there were two Numbers at that place. Hmm, and what would Seiko do if she finds out the truth?
