Andres looked at Emma, whose cheeks were pink and nervous. He tilts of his lips. He was a boy, and he understood why the waitress was behaving like that. "I ordered the best food here. Whatever it was. Probably the most ordered food." Andres shrugged his shoulders. Actually, he wasn't hungry, he came to this cafe just because he wanted to chat with Arion and Auristela. His stomach was already full of two pieces of bread made by Jemima, his regular baker."Me too. Whatever it is. Because I'm not a picky eater. I'll eat everything as long as it's not poison." Anthoni smiled shyly. Before becoming Andres' friend and bodyguard, he used to eat carelessly, the important thing being that his stomach was full.Emma nodded in understanding. She saw Auristela, who was eating voraciously. "How about grilled venison? Like Auristela eats."Auristela, deliberately avoided Andres and Anthoni's faces because of embarrassment; her voice that was fighting with Arion was heard outside. She turned to And
Anthoni told Almeta to sit next to him. The chairs they sit on are elongated and can be occupied by four skinny people. Almeta pouted and Anthoni gave her half a glass of iced orange, Almeta drank it in one gulp.Andres smiled at Almeta who was snorting. Almeta knew who had made him exhausted and like a madman for looking for the two men. It must be Andres who wants to meet Arion and Auristela."Hi, Almeta." Auristela greets Almeta who smiles at her."Hi, Auristela. We meet again, shall we." Almeta is happy. Finally, she has a female friend! She is lazy with Madam Belanca because the witch often reads her mind without permission and Veloxa did not live in Grassland.Andres glanced at Arion who was stroking the dove in his hand. "When are you guys going to start work?"Arion raised his head and his green eyes stared at Andres. He thought hard to determine the day and time. "Maybe tomorrow afternoon? I'll be working from noon to evening."Andres nodded. "It's okay. Anthoni or Almeta and
The look in the eyes that radiated pain and the voice pleading for mercy sounded pathetic. The black boar that was in the cage lay limp. His leg was bleeding from being hit by a trap made of wood. Don't know from what time the wild boar was hanging on the tree.The farmers were happy because they had again caught the wild boar that had been destroying and eating their crops. In total, they had caught four wild boars and they ate the pigs. Are they evil? Well, not completely. Because animals were created to be eaten by humans.Arion and Auristela get rations of roast pork in large quantities because the farmers are very grateful to Arion who has helped them set traps for wild boars so that they managed to catch wild boars one by one and of course have an impact on their thriving plantations and they can harvest. Every night the farmers do not have to worry and think about the fate of their plantations.The sun was overhead, sweat soaking their clothes. They decided to take a break and
A gust of wind blew away Auristela's golden hair. Her robes were slightly parted and revealed the arrows and bows she always carried behind her back. Actually Auristela was too lazy to wear robes, but her father told her and Arion always to wear the robes made by their mother. At first, they thought, this cloak serves to hide their wings. But when they sleep, their wings don't come out. They didn't know their father's spell to hide their beautiful wings. Branches that symbolize that they come from the royal family or from a noble family."Where's Andres, Anthoni, or Almeta?" Auristela looked around the relatively large farm. Some of the goats were chewing grass, and some were sitting relaxed. No one looks after the goats. "They say someone else works here besides the three of them. Why are we here, the farm is always quiet? Does Andres really believe that no one will steal his goats?" Auristela was confused and scratched her itchy head. "So reckless."Arion walked around the farm, lea
"Well, I've only taught you once; you're instantly proficient." Anthoni clapped his hands, and his eyes sparkled with admiration for Arion, who was milking the goats. The elf clan is known to be friendly with nature and animals. Anthoni, Almeta, and Andres have proven it. The goats obeyed as Arion and Auristela approached them to milk them. The goats were calm and did not rebel at all. There were so many privileges that the elf clan had; no wonder the witches learned magic spells from them.Arion stood holding a container of goat's milk. He patted the head of the white and black goat. "Thanks for the milk." The goat made a sound as if it was answering Arion's words. The green-eyed man smiled brilliantly, and Almeta, sitting a meter away from him, was mesmerized by Arion's good looks."Good work." Anthoni patted Arion's shoulder and gave a thumbs up. "I've been working here for a year, but I'm having a hard time trying to milk them because they can't sit still, and out of frustration,
Rain fell on the Grassland sky. It had been a long time since the sky had sent down water and black clouds overshadowed the sky. The rain always brought a cool breeze, and there was no sign of lightning coming to startle the people of Grassland. Some people choose to sleep, others look up at the sky and let the strong wind slap their faces, and others continue their activities as usual. There are even some people who hate rain for various reasons.Auristela sat on the chair by the window that was left open, which was her favorite spot. Her green eyes are not tired of seeing the sky so dark that it can hide the stars and the moon that never forgets to replace the sun to illuminate the sky at night slightly. Auristela stretched out her hand and let the cold rain water wet her hand. "We used to often play in the garden of the crown prince's residence when it rained," Auristela recalled the memories when they lived in the palace."Miss him?" Arion responded jokingly.Auristela turned and
The elven royal palace was always quiet like any other kingdom. The elven clan only had one kingdom led by king Dawson. Elves were known as noble and perfect beings, and they had handsome and beautiful faces. Their faces are different from creatures from other clans, their faces are unique with pointy ears that add to their uniqueness. They are admired by almost all beings from other clans. Pure magic comes from them, witches learn magic spells from them, then the spells are modified by witches. But the ones who studied magic spells more deeply were the royal family and the nobles. Ordinary people only learn spells that are used to guard and protect themselves and those around them.Adena is just a mother who always misses her twins who have been away from the palace for a few days because the king–who is her husband's eldest brother–has not allowed Arion to live in the palace. Every night she would sleep in Auristela's room or in Arion's room in turn. Like it or not, her husband went
Yesterday's heavy rain that occurred from afternoon to midnight made several rivers and lakes in Grassland almost overflow the water they were holding. Some rice fields are inundated with water and make the soil soft.Arion helps farmers to remove water from their fields using buckets and ensures that the soil doesn't get carried away. The farmers can only take a deep breath, and they are resigned if they experience crop failure again. Luckily there was still a lot of the wheat in the warehouse, so that they could sell half of it and the other half for their consumption."Grassland has always been like this." Mr. Smith said as he adjusted the slanted position of the wheat plant to stand back up. "It rarely rains, but when it rains, it rains very hard and sometimes causes flooding. This area has experienced flooding in the past."Auristela, who sat crouched on the edge rice field, listened to Mr. Smith, who was telling the story. Mr. Smith is 70 years old but still fit and strong. Mayb
