The afternoon.
The queen of the oceans is still taking care of the remnants of the chaos, she has also informed her son that she will be in the Mystic region for days or maybe weeks.
His son inevitably could only sigh, he was really tired of being in the palace without his mother.
The one who always accompanied him was only a servant, his name was Eri. The servants of the palace numbered in the hundreds, but the closest and most understanding of Vania was Eri.
Although their status was different, Eri and Vania were arguably like best friends. During childhood, Vania was treated as well as possible by Eri, he also always relied on Eri in many ways, which made their relationship even closer.
Because of their close relationship, Vania once called Eri 'brother' but, obviously Eri felt uncomfortable being called sister, especially Vania is the child of the Queen of the sea, she felt more comfortable when called Eri.
"Daughter, you have not had lunch, eat" the maid or more briefly called Eri, was putting the cup on the table.
Princess Vania, who was looking at the paper notes from her mother's handbook, turned her head and said, "Yes, just put it there"
Vania looked back at the notes.
"Good Princess"
"I've told you several times, call me Vania if it's just the two of you"
Eri chuckled softly and said, "Sorry Vania, I always forget"
Vania once again turned her head, she exhaled lightly and responded to Eri's apology "The reason you always forget, Eri"
"Hahaha, sorry-sorry" Eri laughed lightly as she walked over to Vania "What do you read Princess?"
Hearing Eri's words, Vania sighed heavily like a person who was complaining of being mentally tired "Huh~"
"???" Eri was confused, his expression was so neutral.
Vania immediately shook her head and tried not to worry about what she had said before.
"Letter from the mother" replied Vania.
"What did the Queen write?" The question that Eri was asked was supposed to be in the presumptuous category, but because their relationship was so close, Vania did not care about it.
"In short ... mom is not going home anytime soon, mom is busy taking care of the mess in the capital of the Mystic region"
"Thus ... The queen of the seas will not return" Eri understood then rubbed her chin and nodded in response.

Clark, Clara, Elena, Flera and Vivi have entered the desert desert sand that is located in the Valcke region.
After the chaos in the capital, Clark decides to explore the Valcke region, preparing essentials such as groceries and drinking water in the ring for the next few days.
This time they faced the same scorching heat of the sun, and fortunately Clark made special clothes that could reduce the heat.
Other than Clara and Elena, the rest were wearing special clothes.
"Huhh ... Master, it's hot!" lamented Elena could not be hidden, her legs were so limp and a little trembling.
"Don't complain" said Clark neutrally.
"Master, why don't we use the horse carriage?" Elena doesn't want to be complicated, she can't stand the heat of the sun.
"We can buy a horse to ride alone" Elena was too lazy to scold him.
"Remember?, are we paired with ballast?"
"Ah right as well" Elena was stunned then realized that the two of them were being paired with weights on their legs and hands while starting to depart from the Mystic realm.
"Looks like the sun's heat is affecting your brain?"
"I'm glad I'm lazy, if I don't beat you up!" Elena was actually emotional, but because of the hot sun plus heavy loads on both hands and feet made Elena lazy to deal with Clara.
" ... "
Due to the quiet atmosphere, he turned his head to the side and found Clara too close to his master, arguably even sticking together.
Seeing that scene, Elena lowered her eyebrows.
A rare smile was imprinted on Clara's ever-flat, her gaze leading to Clark's face. Elena concluded that Clara's condition was too strange since 3 days ago.
Elena was indeed a fool, but it wasn't too stupid to be unaware of her friend's change. From the start his gaze, expression, and behavior towards Clark began to change and of course towards a sweeter one.
Not only did Elena feel Clara's change, Vivi and Flera also noticed, they now more often saw Clara clinging themselves to their Master, sometimes her sweet smile and spoiled nature came out naturally.
"Have he started liking masters?" this was only Elena's conclusion, nothing else. Clark's subordinates were also more or less thinking about the same thing.
Why do they conclude so?. The answer was easy, looking like a girl who had just fallen in love, even though the three of them were inexperienced they were fellow women.
That's normal, anyways the man is Clark. The man is handsome, versatile, strong, and kind. Well, that's a fact that they've known all along, so it's normal that there are a lot of women who like it, especially Clara being by Clark's side all the time.
There was no way a girl could survive by his side, even if there was a single married woman. If resistant, it may be because it does not know the side other than its good looks. Given time, Clark can melt his heart slowly but surely.
Clark noticed someone was staring at him and then he saw Clara "What's wrong?"
"Mm~" looking at Clark's gaze, he immediately hummed and shook his head.
"What's wrong?, is it because of the heat? or because the load is too heavy?" after saying his opinion, Clark continued to pat Clara's head lightly and gently.
" ... " after pausing because he was busy enjoying a warm pat, Clara finally opened her mouth and let her master's hand over her head "not too hot and not too heavy" her voice seemed smooth.
"You sweat, hold it"
Clara chuckled as she could not deny it, she was actually lying. The heat of the sun stung his skin, not to mention holding heavy weight, this was more agonizing than what had been imagined, so heavy his feet to the point of getting into the sand. In comparison, Elena was still light.
Clara does have a regenerating body, but her body still feels pain before being healed and certainly 'where' will always be used up to 'where' in his body slowly began to decrease which resulted in a weak and lethargic body.
"It seems like you two seem closer, did something happen between you?" this question bothered Elena for 3 days, so she could not bear it and waited for immediate confirmation from them.
The subordinates brandished their thumbs in silence, they also wanted immediate confirmation.
Clara once again turned her head towards Clark, she did not want to talk and handed him over directly to Clark.
From Clara's eyes, she did not want to tell him this, including when she was crying, Clark sighed lightly and opened his mouth to talk "Nothing happened, don't think much"
Both of his subordinates were slightly disappointed after hearing that and chose to resign. However, Elena did not give up that easily and asked for confirmation once again "Hmm really?, suspicious"
"We're almost there" before getting a satisfied answer, lucky they're almost there and Clark takes the opportunity to shift the topic.
