Mars looked around the main living area before he asked Kaitlin

"the elders sent me another gift, do you know where it is?"

"err... there was a chest sent to the building, it's in the main storage area right this way"

"lead the way please"

Elsa looked at Mars' face and asked the other 2

"is it just me or does he seem even more excited then when she was showing us around the building?"

"kinda?"

Chloe gave a knowing look and nodded

"....it must be magic beast cores or mana stones they gifted him"

"oh right, he uses them to get stronger right?"

"yeah"

"I see..."

Mars left the girls and Victoria that had showed up at some point and followed Kaitlin soon they reached a rather empty storage room were a single chest stood, Mars walked up to the chest and... poked it before he jumped back

"...what are you doing?"

Mars looked over at Kaitlin with a oddly serious face

"checking if its a mimic"

"I-I see"
