|-|Mona=
Gyrate Commercial Center
Ife paces back and forth in the arcade. Her eyes fix on limited agent doll, the special prize for the balloon shooting game, "Wanna try your luck?" You can take this doll home if you can break the record. Ife blushes upon hearing the stall owner's offer before hearing a loud voice from behind her.
"That doll will be mine!" Mona confidently takes the bow from the owner, yet even 15 minutes later, she's yet to break the record...
"Arrrgh, one more time!" Mona says, unwilling to give up. She raises the bow and gets ready to try again. The stall owner looks at her impatiently. "Miss, you've tried a dozen times already. Not that I want to discourage you, but this record was made by a professional sniper with over a decade of marksmanship experience. So, you may as well give up."
The owner's discouraging comments only ignite a stronger passion in Mona's heart. "Shooting isn't just about someone's experience!" She pulls the bowstring back again, the sweat on her forehead revealing her tension. She takes a deep breath and fires multiple arrows at once, breaking the high score.
Ife feels disappointed when she sees Mona win the special prize, but she's suddenly surprised as Mona hands over the doll to her. "Y-you worked so hard to win the doll. I can't take it." "Nah, I only cared about breaking the record. I know you like spy movies, so just take the doll as a gift." The two girls hold their prizes, walking out of the arcade under the setting sun.

She hears a voice of a child urging his father to come home.
"Manager, it's the spring holiday. You should give your workers some time off." The workers cast an expectant look upon hearing Abigail's words, but the manager seems a bit reluctant, "But... but that would slow production down..."
"It would just be for a few days. You'll still gain enough profit, and I don't think you've submitted an overtime allowance for this holiday. Surely, you'll pay them their overtime, right?" The manager nods his head as he faces Abigail's cold stare.
When they step out of the factory, Alexa, who has been standing behind Abigail, comments: "I thought you would acquiesce to the manager's decision."
"Paying a bunch more for overtime during a holiday isn't a good deal." "You want to give them a few days off so they can unite with their families, right?" Abigail shrugs her shoulders, knowing Alexa has seen through her, "Come on, let's go back. We've got a lot of official documents to deal with."
"Mayor Abigail, shouldn't you take a break?" Looking as the lights of Utgard turn on as night falls, Abigail smiles warmly, "All right, let's go out. I know a wonderful restaurant."

"Jenny, aren't you going to play with the others?" Jenny pouts and shakes her head forcefully. "I-I have strange horns on my head. I'm not like them..."
"And I have a very long snake tail."
"I don't like my horns, and I don't like my strange powers..."
It seems like the child is struggling over her changed appearance from her transformation. Feng Nuxi gently touches Jenny's head. "Let me tell you a story." She takes out some paper dolls to get Jenny's attention.
"Once upon a time, Gods created humans with clay. In the beginning, everyone looked the same. One day, Gods gave humans different skin colors and body types... and a minority of them were bestowed with special powers."
Feng Nuxi folds the paper dolls into different shapes as she speaks. Jenny raises her head and looks at Feng Nuxi curiously. "But why did the Gods do that?"
"Because they wanted to let everyone know that each person is unique. Our transformations are just proof it."
The girl's eyes brighten upon hearing this. Suddenly, they hear the anxious cry of a child not far away. It turns out that a soccer ball has a gotten stuck in a stone crack. Jenny walks up and smashes the stone with a single hit. "Whoa, you're strong! So awesome!" "Your horns look amazing. Can I touch them?" Hearing their praise, Jenny scratches her head in embarrassment, but soon she's mingling with the others.
On their way back, Jenny slips something into Feng Nuxi's hand with a smile on her face. "Here's a gift for you, teacher." Feng Nuxi smiles upon seeing that the gift is a paper doll with a snake tail.
