-- Grasslands outside Andromeda --


*twush!*


Andromeda's city children were fluttering with agility in the air as if nothing could hinder them at all, coupled with their laughter echoing throughout the city


But sure, I've installed protective magic in the air so that their height does not exceed the safe limit. Plus so that no royal warrior could see them


Hm... It's really incredible. They learn faster than I thought, and can instantly be as agile as that


Although the main key to using Mana Fae is stable and bright emotions, it still takes time to get used to it


I feel sorry for them. Seeing that they can easily adapt, it means that they have also gone through a difficult time while in this city. A person's adaptability is driven by a strong desire to live, right?


And look at how they fly. Flying speed, altitude, agility. Everything has been very good


"Son! Fly slowly!"


"Please stop now!"


"Don't fly again! I can't see you in the air!"


Hmphc... Noisy...


They should have calmed down a bit and let the kids stay happy without interruption for a while


But I don't blame them for knowing that those kids might fall. But anyway, I would also catch them in case anyone lost their balance


"Oberon, this is enough! They can fall and their way of flying is very reckless!" A woman protested against me, followed by several other women


"Why do you think I chose a large field for their training ground?" I said with ******* distracted, while continuing to pay attention to children with focus. "Not to worry. They'll come down if they're tired"


"And when are they going down try?!"


"If they're tired" I repeat


The women could only stare in annoyance at me, then watch over their children again with agitated faces


Hm...


They are all natural in this. I didn't expect that humans would learn Fae's magic faster than us Elves. It took me half a full year to master how to fly, while they could do so proficiently in less than a day


Then, my eyes turned to the ground, to the children who had come down because of their parents' coercion


"It's a shame..."


What can a child do is completely restricted by their parents huh...?


I understand they are worried, but this is also done to prepare themselves for later, right?


...


Ah yeah. The children, even though they already look proficient, still need practice


I want to add to the difficulty of the training, but I can guarantee that their parents will not be happy


Eleanor is now on the other side of the field addressing those who protest with her decision. Seeing that, I knew immediately that I would not be able to ask for his help to convince the townspeople again. At least for now, when the atmosphere is in turmoil because of Eleanor's decision


Hmphc...


"Yes!!!"


Verdea suddenly shot towards me at full speed while waving her hand


I was immediately startled and tried to dodge backwards, then he landed right in front of me upright and safely


"The kids are great!" Verdea said enthusiastically


"That's right"


I already knew that...


"So, how about we increase the difficulty of this exercise?" Ask Verdea


...


Ahahahah... Some of the townspeople listened to his proposal. And they don't look happy at all...


Verdea also made no attempt to hide her intentions at all, nor did she feel regret for proposing it


"No. We will prohibit you from doing anything in the middle of their training" one resident protested again


"I-i"


"Why? They still have to practice to know?" Verdea interjected, replacing me with the citizen's answer


"You crazy?! I know they look good or something, but it's still dangerous!!"


"Huh...? If you use that logic, how are you going to let them fly to Miralius while our plan is in motion?"


Oh for the great tree...!


He'll make this debate a long one...


"D-HO!"


"Please, gentlemen, tell me what's going on in this place?"


*twush!*


Everyone turned their focus towards the person who suddenly appeared between us, who was none other than Albert, Eleanor's maid


...


What the fuck?


I could not even feel the air of his coming through the land or the wind. Her... Just appeared while making a wind blow when it appeared before us...


Residents who want to make a fuss can only irritate, then leave without a word again


Albert just kept staring at them with a sharp gaze until they left from before us


"... Thank you, Albert" I told him


"It's not what Your Majesty. I honestly don't like the noise either" He replied, followed by a small laugh like a senior. "And also because it only makes Mrs Eleanor disturbed" he added


"... Then, I want to ask Eleanor something. I beg you to deliver it"


I also told him what I wanted to do to train the children


After listening, He went straight away and politely stepped back towards Eleanor


"There's something strange about him"


Is correct. That guy's weird


I realized that she was quite good at doing things, and that all her work would be done every time Eleanor gave her


But, there was something else that made that person... 'Scary'


I can't believe I should be wary of him. But we do not know the full extent of the man's abilities, so we must be vigilant, even if he is Eleanor's trusted person


"Don't approach him for the near future, my friend. I can't let any loopholes break into your security"


Verdea nodded in response to me


"Then, I ask you to spread this seed in the middle of the training area. Then, tell them to rest and end the exercise today. After all, their parents were also already very worried" I said, then handed a seed to Verdea's right palm


I then pulled it and brought my lips closer to Verdea's ear


"Then tell Veskal to keep an eye on the guy" I whispered softly


"alright. I'll do it"


He then called a Fae to help him fly up and immediately did what I asked


The problem is over. Now another problem


There can be no suspicious people among us


......................


-- Night Day, Eleanor's House --


Calm. Only the sound of crickets could be heard between the sunyinya this quiet night


They chanted a beautiful song, followed by that soothing atmosphere


However, amidst that beautiful voice, the sound of footsteps rang out in the hallway of the house, approaching to a room


The door of the room that had the sound of the foot was headed began to open slowly, as a pair of eyes behind the darkness sharply looked at Verdea who was asleep on a soft bed
