◆ Wendy, daughter of Sunshoth village

My mother in my dreams tells me a story.

A boy with a small fairy will take him to Chang Young's country.

If there is such a country, I would like to go and see it.

Why do you have such a dream?

I'm sure he remembered that Nana was taken.

I don't want to be an adult.

Because if you're a kid, you won't be taken by scared people.

I wake up.

Watch the view from the window.

The sky is dark as usual.

I've never seen a beautiful blue sky since I was brought to this Sunshoth village.

Even after dark, the sky remains dark in this land.

Cold winds from the northern sea reach the mountains and snow the village.

I'm fine now.

I get up from the bed.

My brothers in the same room are still asleep. It's time to wake him up.

After Nana's sister is gone, I must be the elder's mother.

But there's something I have to do before I wake my brothers.

I'll get changed and be ready to go outside.

"Wendy Oneechan...."

Mikal, who was sleeping with me, calls out my name.

Mikal is four years old. Sweetie wants to sleep with me.

But it's time you learned to sleep alone.

I'm twelve.

It's time for me to disappear.

"Sorry, Mikal. Oneechan just goes to her usual place, so you can still sleep."

Relax the Mical.

It's a boy, and you have to put up with it.

Mikal was a little cheap, but at the end, he was convinced that it was the usual thing.

When I go out, I go somewhere.

Abandoned house where no one lives.

Here is a secret garden.

Beautiful flowers do not grow in this land because of its thick atmosphere.

But this is the only place where flowers bloom.

It seems that someone raised this flower many years before I came here.

And now I'm taking over.

Nana's sister looked after me before me.

Nana says this flower is strong and doesn't need a lot of care.

But I make it a routine to see these flowers every morning.

I enter the abandoned house.

The roof is broken into skylights, and the floor is peeling off and the ground is bare.

A small purple flower is blooming on the ground of the strip.

I like to see this flower.

I want to be as strong as a flower.

It was then. I notice something strange.

"Who's there? Who's there?

There's someone behind the abandoned house.

I stare into the back with my eyes closed. Someone is lying down.

Scared grown-ups?

But it's not like that.

Approaching, a man is asleep.

I've never seen that face before. I'm not a scared adult.

And when I laid my eyes slightly from that face.

Something is moving on the man's chest.

At first, I thought it was a beautiful cloth or something. But it seemed to be working on its own volition.

I sat down next to a man and looked closely.

It was a small man with butterfly wings on his back.

The rugged butterfly wings are light and very beautiful.

It was the wings of the butterfly that I thought it was a beautiful cloth.

"What? A lie? A fairy?

The little man was like a fairy in a fairy tale.

Fairy sleeps gently on a man's chest.

It must be a fairy that comes out of the gaga story.

My heart is pounding.

Why? Is there a fairy here?

A lot of emotions come up inside of me.

I've never felt this way since I was brought here.

Look at men.

She has a good look on her dark hair. Looking closely, he looks so beautiful that he can't beat the lord.

Men are tired or asleep as if they were dead.

Who is it?

At least not adults in this village.

You're not one of the adults in this village. If so, you wouldn't be sleeping here.

The man with the fairy must have come from outside the village.

And then I came to this village.

Something was about to start.

I want you to take me into the story if you can.

That's how I reach out to men.

"Mmm...."

A fairy speaks.

The fairy wakes up and rubs his eyes.

And then you and I meet.

"Shh?! Humans?! Why? Why? Didn't you notice?! Master Kuroki! Master Croki! Oh, my God! Please wake up!"

The fairy panicked at me.

And try to wake the man in a hurry.

I panic when I see it.

If it stays the same, we'll find it. These people must keep secrets from adults.

That's what I feel.

That's why you have to be quiet.

"Wait! I won't do anything! Calm down!"

When I say so, the fairy looks at me with surprising eyes.

"Funny! I can't believe what people say! I'll do it magically!

Fairy waved his hands at me.

"Wait, Tibel...."

When I see the voice, the man is awake.

The man stood up a little and shook his head.

Mr. Kuroki You have to be asleep yet ~ "

The fairy sounded worried.

Apparently, the man is not feeling well.

You look pale too.

But he seems to be conscious.

Look at me and the fairy with kind eyes.

"It's okay, Tibel. She's not dangerous. 'Cause I didn't notice till Tibbel got this close."

That's how a man strokes a fairy's head.

The fairy called Tiber still seemed anxious.

"But, Kuroki...."

"I believe in Tibel's power, she's not dangerous."

And look at me.

"I'm sorry, I went into your garden on my own..."

A man apologizes to me.

I shake my head in a hurry.

Yeah, that's okay.

Perhaps your sisters will forgive you.

"Yes, thank you. If you can, I'd like you to just let it go...."

Look at me like a man called Croki screams.

"Yes, it's okay! I won't tell anyone!

I nodded funny.

The man and the fairy looked surprised at me.

"That's me! My name is Wendy! Stay here until you're cured, if you like!

◆ Raina the Goddess of Wisdom and Victory

The land of Alemania.

Northern Luvania, controlled by Zalxis.

Alphonse and the others are standing by over here now.

Coming from Ellios, I will embark on an empty vessel in Alphonse.

"This is Lady Lana. Welcome aboard."

Hiasis, Alphonse's closest associate, will welcome you.

He looks like a girl at first sight, but he is a clean man.

"Where is Alphonse? I came to see how you were doing."

When I ask, Hiasis looks in trouble.

"Mr. Alfoss..."

Looking at the face of the hiasis, she exhales.

"It's always the same. Let me in."

Enter the empty ship.

When you enter Alphonse's private room, you'll be greeted by a half-naked Alphonse sitting on his bedside.

When I heard that I had come, it seemed that I wore the least clothes.

I don't know the woman next to me sleeping on the bedside. They must have picked it up somewhere.

She must be some princess from the clothes she's taking off.

"Hi, Lena. I didn't expect you to come yourself. [M] You were worried about me?

Alphonse says happily.

I was definitely worried.

But that's not about Alphonse.

"Sure, I was worried. The angels you sent to Modgar must have returned. How'd it go?

When I say so, Alphonse thinks.

"Oh, I'm back. I'm glad we're all safe. But there's something I'm curious about. They were helped by the Dark Knights when they fled. And for some reason, there was no chaser. It's weird."

I am disturbed to hear it.

Stupid Croki. I wish I had abandoned Alphonse's men.

I came here because I thought I might.

Croki is hurt. I can tell from Kuna's information.

That's why we need your help.

That's why we need Alphonse to move.

"There's no chaser? I'm sure Zarxis wasn't anywhere near chasing the angels. Perhaps the Dark Knights got important information. Maybe we should explore a little. Alphonse"

I don't know if this will move me.

My brother Alphonse has some whims.

"Of course it moves. Lena. Apart from infiltrating Modgar, there are a lot of people spying on Luvania. I think I know what's going on."

"What? Really?

A little surprised.

"That's terrible, Lena. You thought I was just playing."

I'm sorry. I thought you were just playing. I apologize in my heart.

Alphonse explains.

They're not conspicuous angels, they're infiltrating large numbers of covert, superior humans.

Some names may be discovered, but if we don't destroy them all, we should definitely have information.

I see. So you're getting the information right now?

"That's a bit harsh. Some of them grabbed by Zarbut's minions and remained enemies."

I know the Order of the Maggots, which worships Zarbut.

This congregation is hated by humans.

Because after they pass, a serious plague spreads.

The plague decays the body and becomes a seedbed for maggots.

Most of those who suffer a plague die. But rare survivors become new maggots and act to spread the plague even further.

Some of Alphonse's men must have lost their lives.

"Yes... So you don't have any particularly important information?

"No, that's not true, Lena. The Dark Knight is apparently hurt. And the silver-haired kid isn't with him. This is an opportunity."

"Ha?! No way, Alphonse! You?!"

Maybe they're after the weak Croki?

It must be stopped at all costs.

"No way. If the Dark Knight is dead, I have to comfort him. Let's go to the silver-haired princess."

I was about to die of the words of Alphonse.
