[Butterfly beastman, Motra, point of view]

"So you wanted to do that in front of the fallen paladin? Fufu, twisted as always" [Witch]

"If everything going according to what I mention, the children will be unable to fulfill their future roles, which is beneficial for us" [Motra]

"That, if they truly will become the ten heroes in the future, otherwise, it's a risky plan" [Witch]

"True, but if it's for our god, then it's a small sacrifice from my part" [Motra]

"You do know what you should do right, should you fail" [Witch]

"Don't worry, us insect are no stranger to life and death" [Motra]

Insect, they only know eat, sleep, excrete and mate, they live a short live before inevitably succumbs to death, and unfortunately, insect type of beastman are almost the same. That's why

"I can't wait to play with them. Kara and Mara... fufu" [Motra]

When someone like us, whose life is short, having a toy to play with, is a delightful thing

"Well, let get you bless with the power of Drant" [Witch]

[At entrance side of Kiserre]

[Saintess Rumia point of view]

"Thank you so much Mrs Saga for doing all of this for us" [Rumia]

"It's my pleasure to do so O saintess" [Khamishah]

We had been detained by the guard near the dungeon entrance. It's a mistake from my part to hope that things will proceed smoothly. I should have foreseen that those guards who follow the old teaching wouldn't appreciate having someone like us inside their country. Still, I wouldn't be mad, they're simply inadequately inform, and plus, new things will always put the heart of mortal in unease, as we mortal live our life in comfort surrounded by familiarities 

As our carriage pass through the street of Kiserre, old wound of battle happening here are still visible. Above all the streets that are badly damage, houses being torn apart, and stalls having to increase their prices, the sour faces of their citizens strike me the most. I could understand that if it were because they're feeling betrayed by the royal, but it wasn't. Instead

"It has always been like this. They're rather fanatical, so having a non human as their neighbours are rather insulting for them" [Khamishah]

"I'm worried about the kids" [Rumia]

"Don't worry. The kids are fine" [Khamishah]

"You mean?" [Rumia]

"Well, I am the Director of Kiserre's orphanage. Their nerve has to be made out of Vibranium if they think they're strong enough to create trouble to us" [Khamishah]

Strong as always. She really is one fine example for us ladies. I'm glad my admiration for her prove to be right

"Can we..." [Rumia]

"Sure, Queen Rinz is there as well, together with the orphans" [Khamishah]

Another night to try and resurrect a dead person, slowly. The person that I tried to resurrect is after all, their best friend. No, to begin with, I don't want to rudely awaken someone from their eternal slumber in imperfect state. Plus, the consequences will be deadly. 

(Well, with the God of Death power, thing shouldn't become too haywire, but, let us not take any unnecessary risk) [Ash]

There's no guide for me, even though mom and dad souls inside the scythe seems to know about it, but as usual, their favourite word "homework" is the answer. Sigh... I'll appreciate a tip or two since we are dealing with life hear

(Well, technically, we are bringing someone dead back to this realm, so yeah, we are dealing with life) [Ash]

~Yawn~

"Feeling sleepy? Let just go back for today" [Ash]

"No, please, take your time" [Elise]

"I don't want you to have a panda eyes, so let just call it a day" [Ash]

I lift Elise up, and of course she would be mad at me, quickly telling me to put her back, but

~Swaying~

Yeah, she is really sleepy now. I'm not surprised should he suddenly fall asleep while walking

~Stumble~

"Kyaa!" [Elise]

"See, told you" [Ash]

"But, it's embarrassing" [Elise]

"Well, I will carry you like this, so just go to sleep" [Ash]

Well, she's blushing now, but as expected, she quickly fall asleep. When she stumbled back then, I use air cushion magic, don't want her clothes to get dirty from touching the ground. So now, she comfortably fall asleep on my air cushion magic. Entering the bus golem, I quickly start the engine and drive back home

Along the way

(The fairies really did an excellent job) [Ash] 

The leave of elemental trees, they are shining rather brightly. Good thing the neighbors doesn't complaint about the bright light emitted out from it. Maybe the magic core that I installed play a role here, they do emit dark mana into the surrounding, so the light doesn't bother those inside the house much. Maybe, again, I'm no genius

Once arrive, I quickly let Rafiah bring Elise into her room. I munch some butter bread and chocolate drink that Claude made, offering it to Mahsuri as well, but as usual

"..." [Mahsuri]

"Don't worry, I won't ask anything. Not even a clue on how to resurrect someone" [Ash]

"..." [Mahsuri]

Sigh... well, more for me than

"Claude, Rafiah, let us check that "treasure chest" before we go to sleep" [Ash]

""Sure"" [Claude, Rafiah]

.

.

.

Huh, interesting. Once again, the thing that we put multiply, filling the box, but

"I'm starting to see a pattern here" [Ash]

"Same here" [Rafiah]

"Let just put the next set of thing, but let me record our finding first" [Claude]

""Got it"" [Ash, Rafiah]

"Empty treasure chest". Glad they didn't realize what it actually is

.

.

.

"Morning" [Elise]

"You're rather late today" [Rean]

"Sorry about that" [Elise]

I can see Elise clearly sleep deprived. I wanted to tell her that it's ok to sleep a little more, but I guess her pride as the eldest sister wouldn't let her do so. 

"What are they doing?" [Elise]

"The younger group? Who knows" [Ash]

Elise quickly check them up. Well, they have been rather secretive but

"This birthday card is for Brother Ash" [Charlotte]

"This one for the princess" [Savel]

If you want something to be a secret, maybe don't shout about it. On other related note, I have been preparing for Diana's debutante party so much so that I forgot the two of us share the same birthday. Plus, they're also one year older now since we first met. Time sure flies
