It is located on the top of a mountain. With vast and lush greenery spreading out, a brisk, breezy wind flutters the dead and fallen leaves and petals withal. The crisp and the fresh smell of forest with honeyed-like scent of various types of flowers swirled in the air and warm sunlight that shone like a glittering halo.
The scenery is magnificent and had the most dazzling spectacle, especially at night. The dark sky is surrounded by glittering stars. Whereas the moon itself will be shone with pride, illuminating the rest of the world.
The Balzatine Kingdom has four seasons, summer, winter, fall, and spring, unlike the Grandia Kingdom, which only has two; summer and rainy seasons. Both were built on an island and separated by a vast ocean. There's only two transporta

{Curse you, host!!!!!!} Mochi's screaming reverberates in the night sky as the wind playfully flinging and twinging the blue energy ball like a wet towel. The wind juggling Mochi from one cloud to another until the system became nauseated and its voice faded into an audible whimper. Its eyes are spinning like the spinning of the carriage wheels. The four tiny limbs resembled the fluffy feet of puppy twitching from time to time, trembling from the sudden stimulus. Mochi is lying in the air, like a deflated balloon. The wind finally stopped its ruthless attack and slowly bringing the limp system to its caster. Danial smirked. He felt utterly satisfied as he looked at the pitiful appearance of the system. (Having fun?) He teased the half-dead system. {I hate you!} Mochi roared in anger. It's struggled to get up with a barely rekindled vigor, glaring at Danial with glowing eyes. { You wait for yo

"Can we talk?" A mellow voice ringing in the room, made Andrea who prepared to sleep to pause her action. Andrea turned around and was shocked to find the girl is sitting closer to her bed. Huh? Did she teleport? How comes she didn't hear her footstep? "W...what?" She managed to croak out her flustered response. Seiran tilted her head, sizing up Andrea with her lips pursed out. Andrea felt uncomfortable. Isn't it rude to stare at others? At least be subtle in your action, girl! (She didn't seem to recall that she also had done the same.)

Danial entered his pavilion. He casually surveyed his surrounding with an expressionless face. He strode along the magnificent hallways with the shadow guard trailed behind him. The whole place seemed to paint in white. Only the curtains, the ornaments, and decorations were in different colors. The floor beneath is made of glossy wood. The surface seemed translucent and glistened when the light reflected on them. When you stepped on them, the footstep reverberated across the peaceful residential palace. In the center, there is a pond with a beautiful fountain. The Kois swam with great vitality, splashing the water around and sometimes creating waves after waves. The pond separated the palace into two parts and sturdy black fences barricaded around it. To the left side, you will reach the Prince's residence. And, to the right side, you will be entering the princesses'. At this time

Danial arrived at the outskirt of the Main City when the sun had spread its comfortable and soothing light on the boundless horizon. He left The Knight Residence when the dawn itself was welcomed by the world. The bright sunshine shone above him with its warm light. The sky is clear, and the weather for today is as spectacular as yesterday. The beautiful ambiance is befitting for anyone to take a stroll with family or friends, leisurely spending time together. Danial strode over the bridge, walking in a steady gait while evading the rush of upcoming carriage from his front. The luxurious carriage bypassed him in a flash, and he managed to catch a glimpse of a slender hand that lifted the white curtain. The long, golden hair shimmered under the sun as a head peeked outside the carriage's window. Danial scrunched his nose, left in a daze and astounded. The remaining nostalgia feeling of the good old days hit him on t
