Hearing someone call out the princess's name, they soon saw an elf maid with peach colored hair blowing in the wind, rushing towards their direction. "Princess, this is where you've been!" Stopping to catch her breath, the maid placed a hand over her beating heart, happy to see that the princess was well and unharmed.
A second later she realized that the princess was not alone, taking notice of the children. "Umm, princess, who are these people?" The maid kindly stepped closer to the princess, bending down her head to whisper into her ear.
Opening her mouth, Luna was ready to respond only to have the school bell cut off what she was about to say. The maid standing by her side hastily grabbed the princess's wrist. "Princess, you can not be late. A tardy mustn't ruin your perfect attendance!" After saying this, the
The day before the camping trip, Countess Rosendrey could be seen hastily pulling out every article of clothing in Maria's dresser or closet and piling them on top of the mountain of clothes already in her suitcase. 'S-She's overdoing it!' Maria didn't know how to put a stop to her mother's madness; luckily Shirone tried to lend a hand by speaking reason to the countess."My Lady, the ojou-sama will only be gone for a week. The number of clothes you're packing exceeds that length. I urge you to please put some back." The neko white-haired maid tried to explain calmly to the countess, who childishly refused to listen."No way! My darling Maria will be away from her mommy for a whole week! I must make sure she has everything she'll need
The next day, the students were harshly awakened from their peaceful dreams when a blaring alarm rang throughout the lodge. Maria was so startled that she got tangled in her blanket and clumsily fell out of her bed. The only person who was not startled was Mai, sleeping like a log and unaware of her friend’s turmoil. 'I envy you, Mai.' Maria shot the blonde a half-hearted glare before walking up to the bed where the blonde was sleeping and shouted,"Look, someone is about to take the last piece of meat!" Right on cue Mai's eyes shot open, leaping from out of her bed."Don't you dare touch my meat!" growled Mai, fire burning in her eyes with the intent of defending her precious meat. Seeing this, Maria could
Once the group's breakfast was finished, they were to call over Ms. Riddle, who would ask about which of their materials they incorporated into their breakfast. She would then sample their meal; if it was good, the reward was smiling stickers, which she plastered to their cheeks."Not bad, and if I'm honest, one the best breakfasts I've sampled today~!" complimented Ms. Riddle after sampling the breakfast cooked by Maria's group, which consisted of flavorful fruit juice made from berries and oranges, crispy, well-cooked bacon, a fluffy yellow omelet divided into eight portions, and sponge pancakes drizzled with either honey or maple syrup.Now that their meal had been checked and graded, the group made their way to the Dining Hall to finally have breakfast. In the midst of breakfast, Maria noticed that a large num
After a few rounds of searching, Maria and Luna finally settled on a magical plant for their research paper. The name of the plant was Euryale, and strangely, Luna only had limited knowledge about it. Nodding her head towards this, Maria suggested that the two should head to the library and search for more information that would help them with their research paper.Luna agreed with Maria's suggestion, and the two girls set off towards the library, only to stumble upon another pair along the way. 'Tch, of all the people I could've run into, why these two?!' groaned Maria, mentally counting herself as unlucky. The figures standing before her were crown-prince Alan and Eira, who were partnered together for this activity."If it isn't the
Scoffing at his sister's words, Alan turned on his heels and left with Eira trailing behind him, but not before throwing one last glare at Maria. Feeling a bit childish, Maria pulled down the lid of her left eye and blew a raspberry at their receding backs."Let's go to the library so that we can get started on the assignment,"suggested the princess, surprising Maria when she felt the other girl reach out and grasp hands with her, taking the lead by walking them towards the library's location. Along the way, Maria felt a little flutter in her heart; staring down at their conjoined hands, a sprout of happiness bloomed in her heart."Thank you for sticking up for me, Luna~!" Maria was grateful for the princess's courage, knowing that it was not easy on the poor girl when it came to confronting that half-brother of hers. U
"What are you guys doing here?" asked Maria.A hand placed on her hip, feeling a bit happy and surprised upon seeing the younger girl from a couple of days ago, Paige answered Maria's question. "Down at the foot of the mountain, there's a village not that far off who sent in a request to the guild. Concerning a phantom-type beast that has been terrorizing their fields, feasting on their animals, and causing the residences to have nightmares or insomnia for the past two weeks.""P-Phantom-beast?!" The reason behind Maria's shock was that she was reminded of the words her grandfather once said to her concerning this specific type of creature. Of how they loved feasting on human fears and flesh, and if she was ever to encounter one, she should run."Oh, I'm
While Diamond Academy was in the middle of their annual fall camping trip for third and fourth graders, a person dressed in a cloak, concealed from head to toe, walked down a cold and sketchy alley, which smelled of rotten food and booze. Trash, broken beer bottles, and drunken men hitting on prostitutes littered the person's path before they walked through a back door.Once inside the bar filled with all types of dangerous men and women, some couldn't help but point their suspicious gazes on the cloaked figure walking towards a booth occupied by four men. Still, the cloaked person was only interested in the large bald man with scars all over his face; his thick muscular arms were wrapped around the waist of two young giggling beauties.Chatting them up, he sang praises of his recent and past victories of plundering vil
It was a new day, and students gathered outside, curious about today's activity. Maria talked with Mai and Julian when she spotted Princess Luna, greeting her with a wave and smile. The princess acknowledged her greeting with a nod of her head and an awkward yet cute hand wave."Alright, students, for today's activity, you all are doing a scavenger hunt, but not just any scavenger hunt. The location for today's activity will take place in Amber Cave." Announcing today's activity was Mrs. Riddle. Curls of soft orange locks ran over her shoulder blades as she pointed her finger to behind where the students stood.Behind them stood the large opening of a cave. "Each student given a list will see five types of eggs that each of you must collect to complete your task for today. But note inside this cave lurks various l
