Arai jumped down from her horse.
She unloaded some toys and snacks for the children from the back pocket of her horse saddle and turned towards one of the humble houses in the Imperial Capital she visited.
She walked over to the door, took a deep breath and knocked softly.
When the door opened, Arai showed her best warm smile.
“Sister Arai… welcome,” a teenage girl greeted her.
The house looked deserted, and there were only the children, the teenage girl and an old maid looking after them.
“Thank you for coming every day to visit us, Sister. But… we're really okay,” said the teenage girl.
Mia Amethyst and her two siblings, Tammy and Robby Amethyst lost their parents at once.
Yes. It had been three days since the funeral of their parents, Caitlyn Emerald and Paul Amethyst.

The two basic levels of <Aura Awakening> also divided the Awakening itself into two types.The first type was <Aura Sensory> which allowed one to feel the faint flow of <Aura> of others and oneself. This awakening was common among physicians who learned <Aura> based medicinal techniques on the Varanus continent.Considering that everyone had a subtle <Aura> flow in their bodies, physicians used this to help heal their patients. It would be even easier if their patients were someone who had also experienced an awakening.Zaha had awakened his <Aura Sensory> when he was young because he was determined to heal others, not the determination to become stronger.Then, the second level, and the second awakening type was <Aura Manifestation>. This was the type of <Aura Awakening> that was most common among fighters.Unlike <Aura Sensory&
As he finished his examination, Zaha shouted at the clinic door."Yesha!" Zaha called to his assistant… but after waiting a few seconds, the three adults realized that the three teenagers who lived with them had not yet returned home."Oh dear, it's past lunchtime already..." Harriet muttered. She walked briskly out of the clinic and tried to look if the teens had returned or not. But as they thought, they had not come back yet."Where do they go…?" Zaha asked quietly.Little did the three adults know that when they left to finish the war, the three teens started befriending the other teenagers in this port city.And now, they were facing a problem.***“What do you mean steal?! Grandpa White is not someone who steals!” exclaimed Molly.“Then why did we find our shop's book in his bag?!
When Ezra suddenly pushed her way through the crowd and embraced a white-haired old man, Ezekiel and Heinrich were somewhat surprised. They didn't expect to find Grandpa Eirwen so soon. They felt relieved...However, the fact that there was a crowd around them signified one thing.A problem.Heinrich whispered the facts he had gathered from the people in the crowd to Ezekiel, and quickly, Ezekiel knew what problem Grandpa Eirwen was in.The three teenagers who had accompanied Grandpa Eirwen had defended him to the fullest, while the bookstore owner continued to accuse him of stealing.And from the facts Heinrich had gathered, Ezekiel decided."Enough! Everyone, please return to your respective activities. Mr Shop Owner, and the three of you, come with me to the nearest government office,” said Ezekiel.Yesha, Yelan and Molly gasped.
After these important figures of the Empire met accidentally in a place like this, for such an unexpected reason too, things quickly became clear.The three adults heard the details from the three teenagers about everything that had happened.They heard how Ezekiel made sure that everything the shop owner had done in the past would be brought up to the light, and in doing so, he imprisoned and ensured proper punishment for him.Meanwhile, the three teenagers were asked to sit down and wait until Ezra and Eirwen were ready to speak to them again after catching up with themselves. After that, they chatted for some time, until the afternoon came. They had completely forgotten that they had to go home.By the time they remembered, the sun was almost setting, and so Ezra asked a guard to summon their guardian. But it seemed that there was a misunderstanding. The guard thought Ezra asked for their guardian
"Do you know what you did wrong?"Yesha, Yelan and Molly knelt on the floor with their hands raised up. Their faces were pale and the three of them were facing the wall. They were being punished by Harriet."Answer me," Harriet said sternly from behind them.“W-we were wrong!”“R-right, we were wrong…”“We were wrong…”The three teenagers knew they were wrong.“Because we were not coming home by the time we said we're going to come home…”“…because we made trouble in the market…”“…and… ummm…”The three of them weren't sure what their fault was that made Harriet angry."And?" asked Harriet again.The three fel
"To think we'd meet them here," Heinrich said to Ezekiel in the sitting room of his room.He smiled triumphantly because the hotel he found was better than the one Ezekiel had rented. The room was more spacious and had a sitting room, although there was only one room left.He was still upset about not getting a room before, but it seemed he was reaping his luck now."I never thought that they knew the people who helped Sir Beryl either," said Ezekiel flatly. "This is such a bizarre coincidence."Heinrich smiled warmly. “How about we visit them tomorrow, after stopping by the foundation? We don't know why they're here, and it wouldn't hurt to find out either, right?”"Maybe it has something to do with Duke Almandine's treatment," said Ezekiel. "We know that they told everyone they are in the Almandine Duchy and can't be bothered, but the truth is, they are here."
"Okay, let's play Truth or Drink," said Ezra, setting up a fairly strong northern gin in three small shot glasses. “We replace the dare by drinking one shot. We'll take turns playing, okay?"The two princes looked at Ezra with raised eyebrows. They were interested.Ezra clapped her hands enthusiastically. "Okay! I'll start first. Ask what you want to ask."Hearing Ezra's words, Ezekiel felt unsure. What would he ask Ezra?"I'll ask you, is that okay?" Heinrich asked.Ezra nodded confidently.“You said this was an 'Unrequited Love' club. That means, Your Highness, your love is also not reciprocated. Who's the person that doesn't love you back?" asked Heinrich, who immediately dug a pit for Ezra.Ezra's confident expression immediately turned into one of shock. Her eyes widened and glared at Heinrich who was smiling warmly with
"Because he always falls for another woman every time I try to get close to him."Celine Diamond, and now Harriet Goldlane.Ezekiel had always fallen in love with women other than her. His eyes never looked at her, and his love was never hers. Six lives had passed, and now, as before, Ezra had given up hope.She was already happy enough to see Ezekiel happy—even though in her previous lives, she had always wanted to try to save Ezekiel from himself and Liam Almandine's wrath. Only to fail and be killed at the hands of the man she loved or those closest to him.She knew this was a different world.She knew that maybe another future was waiting for her.But there was still Sorcery in this world, and there had been a blatant war against Sorcery. Ezra didn't want to let her guard down and let all the happiness blind her.She wanted&hell
