Chapter 24: ...My Armpit

After their talk with Reyna, the forest nymph who was watching over Hesreth town, she led the twins to their rooms.

The moment they entered the room, their mouths were instantly agape and their eyes opened wide to have seen their room the same replica as to what they had back at the orphanage.

Reyna leaned on the doorframe as she appreciated the look of awe and astonishment on the two girls' faces.

"Aurelia specifically told me to make your rooms exactly the same as your room back in the orphanage. With a little difference, though."

With what she had said, Reyna snapped her fingers and in the middle of the room, on the wall, in between their beds, was a framed photo of the latest picture they had with the others from the orphanage.

It was a picture that they had before they left for Mystic Academy.

"Oh... because of this, I will be homesick and I will miss them dearly," Elenea commented, tears forming in her eyes as Aranea nodded in agreement.

"Oh, I want to see them, too..." Aranea turned her body to face Reyna and asked her a question, "Do we have like... internet connection? We would like to talk to the people from the orphanage..."

Reyna playfully rolled her eyes as she thought that the twins were like backwater people with the thought of the magical world not adapting to the advances of the mortal realm.

"Of course, we do! Every house in Hesreth has internet, okay? What has Aurelia taught you two? Did she say that the mages don't cope with the changes on earth?"

Aranea and Elenea laughed as they heard Reyna's comment.

"Well, maybe during their time there wasn't," Aranea replied, making Reyna nod as she giggled.

"You're right. Well..." Reyna heaved a sigh as she looked satisfied helping the twins. "I will be off then. If you need me, I'll just be in the biggest tree found in town. The tree is my home. I may be busy, but if it is urgent, I'll directly go to your aid."

With that, Reyna did a spin the she did a little curtsy, disappearing in a blink of an eye as gold glitters glistened around the room, making her disappearance seem like Tinkerbell, a fairy, had visited them.

Elenea walked towards the biggest wardrobe near her bed and when she opened it, she was surprised to have seen the same clothes she had from the orphanage--with only her uniform added to add distinction.

"Magic is amazing," she mumbled, but it was enough for Aranea to hear as she looked at Leonel who was standing behind him.

"How do you sleep? Do you sleep in your form or do you sleep in your human form?" Aranea asked, making Elenea turn her back to look at them as she was curious about it as well.

"Oh, I can do both," Leonel answered, a small smile appearing on his face. "But since my form is a smartphone, I would rather sleep on my object form since you might need me every now and then," he added, making Aranea wander off in her thoughts as she thought of "touching" his "object form" as she used her phone.

'Would that mean that I would have to put my fingers everywhere on his body when I touch my phone? Would that mean that when I play with my apps, it would seem like I am 'playing' with his body? What if that icon on the phone is his private part!? How would I know!?'

"Ah!"

Aranea seemed aghast. Her face was beet red as she frustratingly pulled her red hair, making Elenea and Leonel furrow their brows as they watched her getting insane with whatever she was thinking of at the moment.

"Aren't I violating your body if I use my phone every time!? Aren't I touching you with m-my... fingers?"

"Oh!"

Elenea blushed as the thought of Aranea was said out loud, making Leonel's ears red as he listened to what the Summoner had said.

"Y-you were right about you touching my body but--"

"Oh, jeez!" Aranea's eyes were about to pop out of their sockets as she interrupted Leonel. "C-can't I have a new phone instead? I don't want to--"

"A-Aranea, listen..." Leonel interrupted her, the attention of the two girls on him as he continued talking. "You were right about... touching... BUT--but... that doesn't mean that you're touching me in the places where you thought of," he added, Aranea furrowing her brows.

"But that doesn't erase the fact that I am not touching your body! Imagine... what if I am in a call with someone? What body part am I touching against my ear?"

Leon went silent for a while until he mumbled to answer her question, "...my armpit."

"I don't want your armpit against my ear!"

Elenea stifled a laugh as she continued listening to the funny conversation the two have been exchanging even though the two didn't mean to be funny.

With Aranea's curiosity and with Leonel answering her truthfully, Elenea really couldn't help but find it amazing how these things are possible in this world.

"Then... what am I touching when I tap on my screen?"

Aranea narrowed her eyes at him, making Leonel slightly blush as he averted his gaze, answering her question.

"My torso..."

"That's it." Aranea threw her hands up in the air, not taking it anymore. "I want a new phone where I won't have any malicious thoughts."

Elenea couldn't help but laugh out loud anymore. She held her stomach as she roared, her laughter resounding in their room as Leonel and Aranea watched her.

"D-don't change your phone," Elenea said, trying her best to speak. "Mother bought a phone for you," she added, Aranea sighing.

"I'm not saying I will disregard this phone. I just don't want to think that I am touching his body and that his body is touching a part of my face as I do calls," she answered, Elenea rolling her eyes at her.

"That's why we have earphones," she commented, making Aranea say aloud her absurd thought.

"Don't tell me the jock where to insert the charger or the earphones is your butt--"

"Aranea, p-please!" Even Leonel could no longer handle her sudden outburst of thoughts. "It's not what you think! S-stop it!"

Elenea laughed once more as Aranea sighed, shaking her head as she thought how could she possibly go on living with the thought of her phone having his body touched by her fingers.

"Fine, never mind... I'll just live with this and get used to it," Aranea said as she extended her hand as if to get something from him. "Transform back into being a phone. Elenea and I would have to speak to our mom."

With that, Leonel approached Aranea as he held her hand with his left. The moment he closed his eyes, he had transformed back into being Aranea's phone, the girls blinking their eyes a few times in wonder as they stared at the phone.

"I wonder which part of his body I am holding now," Aranea mumbled, making Elenea cough as she thought as well.

"Wh-who knows," she mumbled, remembering that they have to make a call. "Just call mom..."

Aranea now started to hesitatingly click on to her phone's screen, wondering what she could be touching on Leonel's body.
