Minerva glanced at Marcus when she heard him call her. She sat on the swing on the balcony of her treehouse with Harika by her side.
"You're here." She said in surprise. Marcus shrugged his shoulders and sat on the other swing beside her.
"I couldn't stand their noise, hence I left." He said and sighed in exasperation. Minerva couldn't help but chuckle.
"I heard from my father that Uncle Santi built the Butterfly Mansion, the Butterfly Garden, and this treehouse based on your liking. And he even started to build it months before you were born. "
Minerva looked at him in her peripheral vision, but Marcus' attention was on the butterfly lights that hung on the balcony.
"I guess you also met Uncle Santi in your past life."
"Well, sort of." Although they met in her dreams, it still counted, right?
"Mm." He grunted but did not say

"Goodness! Minnie, Marcus, please!I was looking for you all along and yet the two of you were just here?" Zinnia exclaimed as soon as she stepped onto the balcony of the treehouse.Minerva awkwardly smiled at her. Actually, she wanted to take Zinnia with her when she decided to leave the Butterfly Garden. However, Zinnia hastily went into Sancho and Serena's side to separate the two. The situation became so chaotic that she decided to leave on her own."They weren't fighting anymore?" She asked. Zinnia shook her head."No. Uncle Santi arrived and said that since they were all energetic, he would 'play' with them.""Uh…"She didn't need to ask further. Surely, those four became scared at her father's suggestion that they decided to stop."Let's go! The feast was about to start! Minnie, you were the star of the night, so you should come with me

Minerva felt that within just five years, she had already experienced a lot of things that she could only imagine in her previous life. A loving father, a warm home, a friend, a caring relative, and her low confidence were all slowly being built up thanks to those who surrounded her.Although there were times that she experienced some life-threatening circumstances, she still managed to get through them.And now, of all the trials that she got through, she would finally face the most dangerous of all. For her, the Dawn of the Fifth wasMinerva exhaled as she laid on her bed. Her father, who was on her side, held her hand tightly. His hands were cold and a bit shaky, so she couldn't help but smile a little. It was obvious that her father was nervous for her."Baby, you remember what I taught you, right?" He asked. Although her father's voice sounded calm, she stil

"You are truly a funny child." The gentle voice said and chuckled. Minerva gulped. Laughed...The tree chuckled!"How about we'd talk first?""I-I…""Were you that shocked?"Minerva coughed for a bit. She glanced at the huge tree warily before she replied."I-I'm just shocked…"The tree chuckled. "It was understandable." It gently said,"Uhm… How to... How should I address you?""Mm... I wonder too. "Minerva just remained silent and looked at the tree with wariness. The huge tree once again chuckled before it spoke."This was your Dawn of the Fifth, right? How about we’ll play? If you won, I’d grant you a wish. If you lose, you’d stay here for a longer time until you win. ""But... Wasn’t that an advantage for me?""You can say so. But it was still an advantage fo

"My wish… was to make my mother wake up."She looked at the huge tree when she said her wish. Minerva did not know the identity of this tree, but since it said that it could grant her wish as long as it wouldn't hurt anyone, then this was what she blurted out.But honestly, this was the first thing that came into her mind when the huge tree said that it would grant her wish.Minerva already had everything she could wish for. What she only lacked now was for her mother to wake up.Besides, she didn't understand, but she could feel that this huge tree was too capable. Hence, she tried to gamble for this wish of hers.Moreover, she wouldn't lose anything if she tried to wish for that. Aside from the expectation, that is.Still, Minerva was nervous for the huge tree's reply. Would she agree to her wish?"Your wish… I wanted to grant

"So you were just done with your Dawn of the Fifth?"Minerva nodded her head as she munched on the cookies that her mother fed her."Ah! So your birthday was just recently! ""Yes." She answered and nodded her head.Her mother smiled gently at her and caressed her cheek."Happy fifth birthday, my baby. I'm sorry if mommy wasn't with you when you were just growing up.""I-It's okay... I understand." She said in almost a whisper."Aww. My baby's too understanding." Her mother said and smooched her left cheek a bit louder. It was a bit ticklish that she couldn't help but to laugh."Of course, she got it from me." Her father said this from behind her and kissed her right cheek."What were you talking about? She got it from me! You already got her physical appearance, yet you still tried to fight with her personality on me? " H

"You want to go to the Halen Empire?""Yes, mommy."Her mother, Kristina Zariah, just smiled at her before she nodded her head in agreement."Okay, baby.""Right, the Halen Empire's founding festival was just around the corner. We could disguise ourselves to play around." Her father said as he fixed the pillows.Minerva rested her head on her mother's chest as she looked at her busy father."Will mommy be okay?" She worriedly asked. She didn't want to complicate her mother's situation. On the other hand, she wanted to bond with her parents.Her mother was only awake for seven days per year. Therefore, she wanted to make the most out of it."Why can't I? Don't worry, baby. This wouldn't hurt me at all." Her mother assured her in a gentle voice and kissed her on the top of her head.Minerva hugged her mother and nodded

"Good morning, Your Highness." Julia greeted her as soon as she woke up. Minerva rubbed her eyes as she looked around.Last night, the three of them slept in her room, cuddling together. But as soon as she woke up, her parents were not around anymore, leaving only her.Well, it was kind of understandable on her mother's part as she did not want anyone to know that she was already awake nor to let them know that she was "alive". After all, it'd be a great controversy that the spouse of the Saint Archmage managed to survive after giving birth to a jeweled eye wielder.However, despite their resolution to make this a secret, Minerva still doubted if it'd be only her, her father, and Harika knew that her mother was now awake.How about Uncle Khalil? Uncle Khalil knew that her mother was only in a state of unconsciousness. Would they tell him that she was now awake af

"Welcome to the Halen Empire."Minerva lightly raised the hood of her robe as she glanced outside the carriage. Her blue-jeweled eyes, which had become brown due to her father's magic, shone in glee as she looked around. Her wavy silver hair that turned brown came in between the views when she raised her hood."Daddy, it was so different from Azenla and Toen." She exclaimed in surprise.Unlike the Azenla and Toen Empires, the Halen Empire was located in the far west of the continent. Hence, the vast sea could be seen as soon as they arrived on the Halen Empire's territory. As they needed to climb a mountain before they'd arrive on the Halen Empire, the twinkling vast sea could be seen in a clear view.Minerva could not help but sigh. This was too beautiful. This was the first time that Minerva saw the sea with her naked eye in both of her lives.Back then,

"Minnie?"Minerva snapped back from her thoughts as soon as she saw Marcus waving his hand in front of her. She was too lost in her thoughts that she didn't notice that he was calling her name."Oh, you were finally back from thinking deeply. Seriously, Minnie, you were the only one I knew that would often daze even in the middle of a tense conversation. Sometimes, I couldn't help but wonder what was running on your mind." Marcus said as his right cheek rested on his palm and looked at him with unmasked curiosity.Minerva scoffed and smacked his arm, which she often did to him."Shut up." She rolled her eyes, "And what was that about what was running on my mind? Seriously, Marcus, if you only knew, you wouldn't have wished to know."Of course, she was only joking. But Minerva didn't want to entertain Marcus anymore with this topic hence she ended this

"Do you perhaps understand this language?" Minerva asked. Marcus raised his head to look at her."Kind of. I was still studying that language but I don't have enough time. There were words and phrases that didn't make sense for me so I decided to take that books when I return home." He answered, "But if you wanted that book, you could borrow that before me.""I see." She muttered as she caressed the book."This language was rare. How did you learn about this?""Oh, that." Marcus knitted his brows as if he was recalling, "He had books that had the same language as that on his private library. I was curious about the book hence I asked him to teach me how to read that language. Although father didn't personally teach me how, he instead gave me an old book that teach how to read that language."

"Where did you get these books?" Minerva asked Marcus who was crouching down on the floor. Piles of books surrounded him as he reclined his back on the couch. There was a throw pillow on his lap while above it was an opened book.She didn't want to disturb Marcus. Minerva wanted to quietly sit in front of him as he looked too immerse on what he was reading. But as soon as she saw the title of the books that was piled up, words subconsciously blurted out on her mouth. And before she could react, she had already questioned him."Oh?" Marcus raised his head and looked at her, "Which of these?""Those at the back." She answered as she pointed at the four piled up thick books who obviously looked worn out."Oh. I found that inside the box at the library's storage room. It was interesting hence I took it." Marcus nonchalantly answered. As he looked at Minerva who had a complicated look at the old books, he

"Dad, I heard that the faculty wanted to talk to you." Minerva said in a small voice once she managed to connect the communication device to her father.Although he admonished her earlier and they already made up, Minerva still spoke carefully at her father in case that his mood hadn't dampen yet."I see. I'd talk to them later." Her father answered which made Minerva hummed. She didn't know what to say next and it seemed that her father had felt her discomfort as he sighed."I'll just finish my things first and I'd head there. Take care, okay?""Yes, dad. You too."Minerva watched as the light of the stone began to wane until it appeared to be a common rock. She placed the stone on the table and sighed."Chill out. Nothing would happen to your father. The faculty were obviously just followed the protocols as Master had breached it. At most, he would need to compens

Minerva was looking at the window on her bedroom. She sat on the chair and leaned her body to the desk. Her right cheek rested on her right palm as she gazed outside. However, although she looked like busy admiring the chipping birds on the tree and the clear blue sky, she was actually immersed on her thought.Her father had already left after he talked to Claire and the board of directors. Although Minerva wanted to follow, her father had forbid her to do so. He also said that she didn't need to meet the board of directors when it wasn't necessary. And if they insisted, her father would make sure that they'd understand what "no" meant.Minerva couldn't help but let out a sigh. Her father didn't reprimand her for strolling around the academy. But since Zinnia hadn't returned yet and Marcus was nowhere to be found, she decided to stay here for the meantime."Minnie?" She heard Zinnia said after three consective knocks.

Santi just got home after he talked privately with Sora. With that, he found out thoroughly what actually happened on the day that Minerva and Zinnia was attacked.He couldn't help but purse his lips. He had eyed this organization for years yet he couldn't find anything. Adira had already helped yet the results were the same. Even Winter, the Pope of the Church of Larin, secretly sent out information about this unknown organization yet they couldn't find anything at all. Worse, Sora had been unable to track those three who attacked Santi, Kristina, and Minerva while they were on the Halen Empire ten years ago.Although they hadn't found anything despite their combined efforts, Santi had a little bit of an inkling on who might behind all of these. After all, nobody in this world was capable enough on hiding away from Sora's radar unless it wasthem.If it truly wasthem just like what Santi a

Out for Santi's courtesy, Marcus excused himself so Minerva and Santi could have a time to talk. Although the tension increased as soon as Marcus left, Minerva chose to remain silent and let her father vent out. After all, it was her fault that she didn't say a word about the incident."Minerva Chrysalis, didn't I tell you to report to me immediately if something had happened to you? We talked last night before you went to sleep, right? I asked you if something happened but you just told me that you and Zinnia went outside to stroll. Nothing more. And yet just this morning, Claire had talked to me about the attempted assassination that happened yesterday? When you and Zinnia went outside?"Minerva bit the bottom of her lips and lowered her head. She knew that her father would certainly be mad about her hiding this for him. However, now that she had faced his anger, she couldn't help but feel regret on her decision."Wh

The breakfast was over and Serena, Parker, and Sancho went home. Although Serena and Parker were sent together in a mission with Vernon and Hansel, it was also the same case for Sancho. He was sent into an A rank mission. Therefore, what was left was Minerva, Zinnia, and Marcus."Lady Zinnia, a student sent a message saying that the young lady was summoned by Professor Claire." A maid said after she knocked three times on the dining room."Ah? Okay." Zinnia stood up and looked at Minerva."I'll be back. If you want, you could go with Marcus.""It's fine. I'll just wait for you here." Minerva said with a smile. Then, Zinnia left leaving Minerva and Marcus."So…" Marcus began, "Uncle Santi didn't permit you to go outside the Larin Continent?""Huh?" Minerva took a bite from the cake before she answered, "I thought you already knew?""I had a h
