I am more or less responsible for what happened because if the Chamber of Lords approved your plan, those commoners might still be alive. It seems that despite all my efforts, and no matter what I do, people keep on dying because of me.”
Viscount Tom saw the gloom in Alex’s eyes, and he quickly interrupted, “Nonsense, Earl Alex! Things always happen for a reason, and the deaths in the Baron’s manor had nothing to do with you! It was other people’s wrongdoings. You don’t need to get depressed because of that! Even if it was true, you helped far m

Alex took a sip from the glass of water that was in front of him and spoke, “I did all of them during the past few years and I got better with each. I started drawing when I was little because I didn’t want to forget the face of my mother, and I took a liking to it.” Anika made an awkward smile. “Oh, I am sorry… But… do you mind drawing me one of these days? I would love to be your muse!” “I already made one, but I don’t have it here. I can do another if you want, and I will even let you choose where you w

When the last Noble entered his carriage and followed the others through the main gate of the Castle, the King took one deep breath and said, “Now, that was tiring! I don’t know about everyone else, but I could go for a visit to the hot spring. Who is with me?” James Macdonald faced Alex and asked, “When are we supposed to return to Bouria? Today or tomorrow? Because I wouldn’t mind joining the King in the hot spring.” “I was thinking that we could go tomorrow after lunch because I want to go to the Capita

Anika acted immediately. With a quick movement of her hand, a ball of frozen water appeared in front of Alex, stopping the arrow that was shot at him. A dagger came from a few centimetres to the left side of the frozen Water Ball, and Wenammy caught it with her bare hand, by moving at an incredible speed to place herself in front of Alex, pushed by her Wind Magic. Pearl Pearson pointed her open palm to where the arrow came from, and a man dressed in dark brown clothes knelled on the ground, pulled by the sudden increase in gravity under his feet, making him unable to escape.

Anika held Alex’s arm again and walked beside him, looking around at the stalls. As they went out of the Market and into the main street on the opposite side of where they entered, Sara Perry saw a peculiar shop and took Kagu with her. She stopped in front of the window and pointed at a stuffed, dark-yellow teddy bear. “I am saving money to buy that as a birthday gift for my little brother! There are a bunch of toys and stuffed animals in this shop, but I once saw him drooling at this window, staring at that teddy bear.” “

Alex called Sara Perry and Kagu-tsuchi waved at the older Cat-kind woman, and they ran to him. They left the warehouse, making a quick stop at the weapons store for Pearl to buy her new bow. She refused to let Alex pay, and they then went back to the carriage again. They squeezed themselves in the seats to give room to Sara and Kagu, but then Sara jumped into Anika’s lap and Kagu to Wenammy, making her look at him completely red because she knew he was not a little boy, especially when he used one of her boobs as a pillow and closed his eyes with a big smile on his face. Sara saw him and adjusted A

Sara shouted, “No way! I am half-Fairy? For real? But I don’t have wings like you, Milady!” “Well, it’s unusual, but it can happen if the Fairy blood is diluted over generations. I can’t believe I found the Human family of Tyly! My family went mad with her when she abandoned everything to live a simpler life with the Human man she fell in love with, and she was not mentioned ever again for several years. She never returned to our family, but she always sent messages on special occasions, like birthdays and marriages. I know she was once considered the most powerful High Fairy in the World! She is a legend among my kind! Oh, the stories I could tell you about her!”

By the end of dinner, everyone wanted to have tea and talk with Sara Perry some more, but Anika approached Alex’s left ear and whispered, “Do you want to go for a walk outside? I bet the moons are beautiful tonight.” “Sure, we can go for a walk.” Alex got up and excused himself, leaving with a smiling Mermaid on his arm. Pearl winked at Wenammy and whispered, “He won’t have a chance against her. He will try to resist her, but Anika will get him in bed. What about us? Shall we leave, or do you want to stay
