Despite how Althea had informed Seika beforehand that she’d be “executing evasive maneuvers”, it seemed like she still hadn’t been prepared to be moved manually by the blonde! Well, no matter how much of a lack of care Althea treated Seika with, it wasn’t like she’d die. Heck, that time she almost drowned in a public swimming pool was way more dangerous than being carried! Wait, had the slayer apologized for that incident? ...She couldn’t remember if she had or not. Isn’t that kinda bad? Seika was her friend, but what if Althea was sued for emotional reparations!?? I mean, to be fair the swimming pool thing was at least 30% Seika’s fault. She was sure she could use a few of her connections with the Magic Council or even all that money that’s stored in her elusive bank account to sway things in her favor.
Anyways, what the heck was this so-called “turquoise” light Seika was giving her for the operation? If red means stop, yellow means slow down, and green means go, then… Well, turquoise was a combination of blue and green, and Althea had never seen any blue traffic signals. And the bread light thing was even more confusing??? When did this ever become a conversation about bread? And then Seika started bringing up… multi-colored lights? Huh? The slayer was having difficulty following this train of logic. Well, she was called smart, so whatever her employer was talking about, she was probably correct. Whatever! She was the one on the job, she only really asked Seika for her input because she thought it’d be fun too! All she had to do was smile and nod along, pretending she understood what all these lights were about!
“Yep, yep! That’s right! Yes, indeed!” Althea bore her best smile and nodded confidently. “Anyways, I’m gonna start Operation Goose Removal, so please step away from the premises. We probably don’t need the building, right?” The mage patted the cracked cement of the (almost) abandoned structure. “I’ll get started then, please step away, Miss Employer!” It wasn’t like Althea was planning to be super destructive or anything, but who knew what could happen? Seika seemed to be capable of using magic, but the blonde wasn’t positive to what degree she would defend herself. It wasn’t like she was planning to blow up the building, that’d leave too much evidence of the former goose occupation. No, she needed to keep things clean and simple!
Althea reached out her bandaged hand, a pitch-black sphere with an eerie silver glow forming above the building. Despite its size, it didn’t cast a shadow over the earth, sitting in the air motionlessly. “Oh, and don’t worry, I won’t hurt the geese!” The blonde said with a smile. And technically, she was right, those avians would be dealt with too fast to feel any pain. It was a bummer, Althea would much rather just go in and mutilate them all by hand, but she wasn’t sure what kind of impression that’d give. Anyways, the black sphere began descending, swallowing the ruined building before slowly condensing, leaving only a crater behind as it receded into nothing. Then, it simply popped out of existence. “Bam!” Althea grinned, turning towards Seika and giving her an energetic thumbs-up, “Geese have been removed! We do have a big hole now though, this can be where the water goes!”
