The Book Of Flowers

Sailing Assistance

"Agh!!! I hate studying politics"

"Oh come. It's my schedule to teach you, and as we fill time"

"-- 'We better learn', I know!! But it won't change if I hate politics!!"

He started scratching his head aggressively while continuing to complain loudly

I wonder how I can understand and learn more about the politics of his kingdom than he does

I also learned to help him! And if this keeps up, it'll all be for nothing because my brain is so over-ripe after everything I've learned!

"Verdeans... Here's a sweet" My mother said, then served a wooden bowl full of fruit sweets

"Ah, thank you aunt"

In an instant he could calm down!

Mama! Teach me how!

"Sweet is something that kids love the most, so just use it when they're upset" My mom replied as if she knew what I was thinking

I immediately let out a laugh when I realized that he was being sarcastic right now, while Verdea just stared in surprise

My mother came out with a smile and a headband

"... Now I understand where your circus nature came from" Verdea sulked at me

"She is a wonderful mother and woman. It's a shame she can't have a child"

"... What are you then?"

"I am a child born of their Mana, so it is logical not to go through the womb"

Verdea looked curious. And I forgot that we're studying politics right now

But no one can stop him now. I have to say everything, because otherwise, he'll keep pushing until I can't resist

...

My mother could not have children through her womb because her body was arguably weak. My fearful father did not force my mother to have children. But on the other hand, my mother was eager to have children

They ask around to find a way to get a child. If you think 'can't adoption?', there can't be. We live in peace and can barely die, so how can you find an abandoned Elf child?

Not to mention Miralius at that time was undergoing renewal and experiencing a period of chaos due to the loss of many residents also an Oberon

But, that one day, they asked a senior. Yep. That big man is Cyrus

My teacher had a vast knowledge of the living things in the world, not just about Elves. No exception is also a method to create a creature with a combined Mana of 2 people

The principle is the same as the creation of the Fae. They need an intermediate device, and the fairy powder belongs to Ayahanda. They immediately sought his intermediary, the lotus flower

That's how it became. They found the method quite difficult to do because of the need for the power of the Father, where communication with him could not be done at that time with the absence of an Oberon. You cannot hear, see, or speak to the world outside the Great Tree without going through an Oberon like me

My mom told me they had to wait 5 years and 5 months. There was not the slightest sign, and the powder that Father produced was not at all numerous. And if even a little wind blows, they must reassemble the powder from scratch

But a miracle happened. After years of waiting for an understanding from Ayahanda, Ayahanda suddenly sneezed and sprinkled her powder into the ground with a large amount

Without hesitation, my father immediately scooped everything up and placed the powder on top of a lotus flower, mixed with their Mana

Also, he might put too much. That's why I became so strong and able to have a close connection with Ayahanda. It was a miracle that also made me born today

"A little weird, isn't it? Maybe if Dad hadn't sneezed, mom and dad wouldn't have me right now

Why are you laughing trying!? What kind of funny story do you think?!" I exclaimed

"But--imagining that you were born from Alf's sneeze makes me a little-Pffft!!"

He laughed after that

And I remembered something seeing him laugh...

My mother also thought my birth was funny because I was born with a sneeze, and sometimes she also laughed amusedly when recounting...

But it's still a miracle, isn't it?! That's an amazing story!

Yep... I have to admit, it's a little funny...

Argh!!!

"Already! Just do the job I gave you, then-!"

...

"What's up, Vainzel?"

There was an echo coming from my shirt pocket. When I pulled out the contents, my guess was correct

Edwin is trying to contact me right now through the seeds of the communication I gave him

"What's wrong? Did something happen on the way, Edwin?" I opened the question through that seed

"You could say so. Did you send the Elves... This wind is here?"

Oh, they've arrived? Faster than I thought

"Where are your positions? If I'm guessing, it might still not be too far south-east of Hortensia"

Is that so...?

"Give the seed to a ship captain. I want to speak directly to their leader"

A rumbling sound could be heard later, and a faint Edwin could be seen walking to and fro asking where the captain of the ship he was on was

"You sent the Sylphs there? What's for?" Verdea asked, half whispering

"To help them get to Gong quickly. I'd like to at least be quicker to execute this plan"

"Good answer"

Veskal's still not with us, so...

Well

"Vainzel, I found the captain of this ship" Edwin said

"Give him the seed"

...

"Hello. Is there anyone in this seed?"

"There must be a captain. And don't be surprised because I know that you almost threw that seed right now"

His behavior was easily guessed by the sound he made...

"S-Who is this?"

"I? I'm Oberon"

"Oh you. What do you want"

"I'll make this short. The Wind Elf squad that I send to every ship that departs, I want them to help you sail safely and quickly. So don't try to think about being rude to them, because I know they won't just shut up if they get angry

You may refuse, and I will not be angry or at a loss. It's just, we better get this done fast, right?" I said

"Give the seed to Edwin, our conversation is over" I added without further ado

"T- Wait-"

"Give. Seeds. That's. To the. Edwins"

...

"Hello, Oberon"

For a captain, that fellow turned out to be quite obedient. He didn't even have a second thought and immediately gave it back to Edwin after I forced it a little

"I have delivered my message to the captain as proof of the duty I have given to the Sylphs. You will be helped by their wind, and it may take only 4 days to get to Gong at a safe and regular rotating pace. Make sure no one bothers the Sylphs or greets them, and everything's fine"

"4? It's amazing"

I know, I know. No need to praise

"Once, our conversation is over. There's a kid I have to teach you A LITTLE structure from his own kingdom..." I said, glancing towards Verdea

Verdea immediately put on an annoyed face and rolled her eyes

"Don't be rude to him. He's a kid"

"I can't keep that promise, because he doesn't know politics at all..."

Verdea now started snorting, while I could feel Edwin who was just laughing awkwardly

"alright. Take good care of the prince. I'll let you know after we sam-WAAAAA!!!"

Oh, they've been sped

"Oberonian!! I'm fine, so are the seeds!" He exclaimed with a loud tone, while being surrounded by the sound of the wind roaring loudly

"Then don't die on the way, Hortensia's greatest knight"

"Just calm!! This is nothing to me!!

I'll call you back! Bye bye!"

The sound of screaming was loud

The conversation stopped, and I put the seed back in my pocket

Then, I immediately turned back to Verdea who was still sitting with a frown

"Ehem. Where did we get to?"

"Until now, 'it's time for rest'...?"

"Oh no~ Your break time is still 20 minutes away, so work on it now"

"Yeahhh!! I don't want to!!"

Boy, kid. And like this, you want to be king?
