[At Orphanage in Malsia]

[Director of the orphanage, Mira, Point of view]

Mira here, bringing you another sneak peek of daily life at Malsia's Orphanage, which basically means playing with the kids every day while also having to be strict with them when it comes to studying and magic practice. Every day is filled with laughter of children from various races and background growing up properly. It's true, but... If only it was that simple...

"Another wedding proposal from a horny noble. This one from a horny merchant" [Mira]

I kinda remember how Ash snapped back then by calling one of the noble horny old man, so now, every time I received a wedding invitation, I subconsciously label them as horny. Well, time to torn this wedding proposal apart, and set it on fire. I wanted to spit on it as well, but let us not do that, it will set a bad example to the kids should they see it 

Honestly, these nobles and merchants, do they really think I am that easy? The crystal spawning blocks is one of three spawning block that function as source of income for orphanage, and those nobles and merchants with their greedy attitude wouldn't appreciate something so valuable to be given for the sake of the orphanage. Of course, there are various ploys going behind my back, with the sole purpose of bringing me down, but that's not gonna work. 

Well, I am not alone, my best friend, Princess Nurhaliza really helps me a lot, so does Kana, Qudus and Naoto. So...

(As long as I am alive, I won't give them the Spawning block, no matter what!) [Mira]

.

.

.

A letter, with the seal of royal emblem from Kiserre. Looks like Queen Rinz and The Saga Khamishah wanted to open an orphanage at Kiserre as well. It's mentioned in the letter that they had been referred by Ash regarding this matter. Well, I am the Director, so anything related to the orphanage should be referred to me

(Not that I couldn't help them, but...) [Mira]

This kind of discussion is better when you're facing them face to face, or when the telephone functionality is crystal clear. Ash did mention it's becoming better and better, so let just hope by the times the kids and I went to Princess Diana debutante party, it's all sort out. For now, I should reply back about the organisation structure of the orphanage, the daily expenses, the necessities, the role of orphanage, vision, mission etc. Ash did give them a tour but as the director, I have to elaborate more on all of these in details

"Sis, it's time for the prayer" [Seo Ah]

"Coming!" [Mira]

Nobles and merchants aside, this old follower also brings nothing but trouble to us thus far, but that would not be a good excuse to skip my weekly prayer. 

.

.

.

As I keep praying at the beautiful diamond carving of Goddess Achalasia inside the church, the kids started to play around. Thank goodness Kanji, Kana and Seo Ah manage to make them behave properly

(I just hope I can do this every day until my very last breath) [Mira]

(Such a sweet child. I'll lend you my support) [?]

That voice! Who is it

"The goddess orb!" [Nun]

"It's bright!" [Kanji]

It's glowing ever so brightly. Someone must have got a title from the goddess, but who?

"Mira, the light, it's directed towards you!" [Kana]

"Me! That, that means!" [Mira]

That voice, it couldn't be...

Everyone stares at me in disbelief, but those from orphanage have a different kind of stare, it's like they were expecting this to happen. As I slowly walk towards the goddess orb, I can see the title that I received from the goddess

"Same as him" [Mira]

Mira, The Guardian of Children

[Captain of the female knights and magicians squad Valkyrie, Bladel point of view]

"Captain Bladel! Over there!" [Valkyrie A]

"Excellent! Get the taming powder from Mr Claude ready!" [Bladel]

"Right!" [Others] 

"Gotta catch them all!" [Valkyrie C]

Right now, my squad and I are trying to catch and tame a group of pegasus. It's a very rare, usually good mannered monster that will avoid people at all cost. Well, thanks to the Receptionist Alice and the adventures that spotted it, all of us quickly get the permission from Princess Diana to come here, and incidentally, when the ghost butler, Mr Claude catch wind of this, he prepared a taming powder that's love by pegasus, that way, our chance of catching them will increase

"That's!" [Valkyrie E]

"A dark pegasus!" [Valkyrie F]

"Perfect!" [Bladel]

My most proficient elements are darkness, and my heirloom sword is called as Night Blade, so getting myself a dark pegasus will be fitting! I can't wait to catch them! We slowly approach them, not wanting to startle any one of it, but

~Neighing~

"Shit!" [Valkyrie B]

"Everybody calm down!" [Bladel]

Well, they're still a monster, so we shouldn't be careless. Plus, they can easily range from C to S rank monster, so cautious is always necessary. But no matter

(This struggling Should then be passed down as a legend, where the newly form Valkyrie bravely tame a group of pegasus, and use it to protect the princess!) [Bladel]

"Ahh, it just wanted to eat the taming powder" [Valkyrie G]

"Here, here" [Valkyrie C]

"Ehh..." [Bladel]

Wait, where's the struggle? Shouldn't there be one? 

"Oh my, they're so cute!" [Valkyrie A]

"I want this one!" [Valkyrie B]

~Happy neighing~

Struggle... legend...

"Ahh, the black pegasus" [Valkyrie D]

"It's approaching Captain Bladel" [Valkyrie E]

"Feed it quickly!" [Valkyrie G]

Taming them through sheer hard work, with our sweat and blood...

~Happy neighing~

"It taken a liking to you!" [Valkyrie G]

"Good! Plus, there bound to be more of them!" [Valkyrie B]

"Let us keep searching!" [Valkyrie A]

"Yes!" [Other]

What an anti climatic legend...

"I can't wait to march together with them during the princess birthday!" [Valkyrie D]

An anti climatic start of our legend...

[At Dungeon entrance, Beast Kingdom]

[The butterfly beastman, Motra point of view]

"Thank you Motra, for helping me out" [Aries]

"Anything for my friend! Make sure to stay safe, you have Lisa, Kara and Mara to take care of!" [Motra]

"I will. Thanks" [Aries]

There she goes, going to her next destination, the Demon kingdom. 

(Sigh... Aries, Aries, Aries... You shouldn't trust someone so easily... Well, I did get a good information, and I feel good that someone good like her can trust someone like me, but now I feel bad about it) [Motra]

Ash, someone that Agnes says having the blessings of Goddess Achalasia as well as God of Death, not to mention, 12 kids under his care. Could it be, 10 out of those 12 kids are...

(Very well. It wouldn't be fun if our god resurrected but couldn't enact his revenge to the ten heroes) [Motra]

I should proceed to tell Agnes first, but let just confirm all of it first and foremost. A false information is nothing but a liability to those who believe in it after all

"I wonder how I can use Aries this time? Maybe have her kill her families with her own hand?" [Motra]

[Diana point of view]

"Honestly, you're such a childish person!" [Diana]

"Geez... stop babbling at me Grandma" [Ash]

"That's for your own good!" [Diana]

"Fine..." [Ash]

"Kids, don't follow this bad example! Got it!" [Diana]

~Nodding in fear~

Honestly... I know I shouldn't blame him 100% but what he is doing is simply inappropriate, and not to mention, he has the title of the guardian of children, so kids around him bound to learn from his example, so someone need to keep him in check as well

"Rafiah, please make him behave properly next time..." [Diana]

"I will, your highness" [Rafiah]

"Fine..." [Ash]

"Sigh... Maybe you should find yourself a wife, that way she can correct your wrongdoing" [Diana]

"Well, unlike you, I'm not that popular. Plus, It's way too early for me!" [Ash]

"What about Princess become Brother Ash's wife?" [Charlotte]

""Charlotte!!"" [Ash, Diana]

(That sound fun! I'll whole heartedly support it!) [Kara] 

(Traveler and Royal love. Sound like a nice romance story!) [Alice]

"Now now, it's a topic neither of them comfortable with, so let not tease them" [Ceanu]

"Tease? I'm serious! Want princess to be my sister!" [Charlotte]

"Don't worry Charlotte, I have already become your sister" [Diana]

"Yay!" [Charlotte]

"Nice safe" [Ash]

Well, that nice safe he mentioned is because years of rejecting multiple marriage proposal. It started to peak after young Rumia left and Alaric and his keen join me as the hidden guards. Dear mother will always try to force a marriage into me, as to make her influence grew larger, but alas, me and my rebellious streak at that time will find a way out. Father was also quite protective of me during that time, so I am really grateful for it. 

"Marriage proposal once more..." [Young Linda]

"Sorry, because of me, you three got into trouble as well" [Young Diana]

"That's our fate as a lady, either commoner, merchant, knight or noble. But indeed, it's getting ridiculous once they knew about our relationship" [Young Qis]

"Well, it is not your fault, your highness. Still, I'm just glad my dad is protective" [Young Alice]

"Honestly, it's hard..." [Young Diana]

"It's might be hard now, but that's why we need to take our first step, as to change the future!" [Young Linda]

.

.

.

"AAAHH!" [Diana]

"What's wrong!?" [Qis]

"I just remember! What Linda say!" [Diana]

"Sister?" [Liyana]

"It's might be hard now, but that's why we need to take the first step?" [Alice]

"That one! I keep on forgetting it recently, I wonder why" [Diana]

"Maybe because of stress, but she used to say that" [Qis]

"The three of you, knows my sister?" [Liyana]

"""Well...""" [Diana, Qis, Alice]

"We have arrive! Now move move move!" [Ash]

Ash shout startled Liyana. He quickly drags her out alongside others. He must have realise that we are quite reluctant to say about it. Her parents did forbid any interaction with the three of us, but somehow, they gladly court Liyana here to my brother. Well, no doubt dear mother and step mothers also involved in it as well. We should probably tell her about our relationship with Linda but

(Is it alright if we tell her now?) [Alice]

(I'm not sure...) [Diana]

(She will find about it sooner or later, and it's best to say it to prevent her getting any false info) [Qis]

Qis is right but...

(Sorry, I'm still, not ready...) [Diana]

(It's fine, take your time) [Qis]

(Plus, it wasn't your fault) [Alice]

Sorry. And thanks

"Alright, let us start the tour for Ceanu here!" [Ash]
