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

    For the past few weeks, Belanca has felt happy, and her life is peaceful because she doesn't see the faces of Andres and his men and hears their conversation, which only makes her head spin. She didn't want to burden her brain after hearing their discussion. The more secrets she knows, the closer she gets to Andres, the crown prince, and she is afraid that one day Andres will threaten her with prison because she already knows all the secrets of the crown prince if she refuses to use her magical abilities to carry out Andres' plans. The first time they met, Belanca could feel the intimidating aura from Andres that brought everyone to their knees. The crown prince pretends to be weak so that he can judge everyone around him, and Andres recruits martial arts and sword experts to be his men.Andres' eyes, which were hidden behind the thin cloth that was on his mask, glanced at Belanca, who was supporting her chin. He also glanced at Anthoni, who was playing with Belanca's eagle in the cag

    Auristela laughed with the goats that were standing around her. She did not know why the goats always wanted to be close to her. Like on her father's horse farm, the horses loved approaching her and inviting her to play. Ah, Auristela misses horseback riding. "Hey, you're the smallest goat. Come over here." Auristela hugged the smallest goat and stroked the belly and head of the submissive little goat.This afternoon the sky is blue. Birds flew here and there with joy, like those who were on Andres' goat farm.Auristela is busy playing with the goats while Arion is milking. Almeta chewed grilled corn while sitting on the bench, and she smiled at Auristela."Auristela," Almeta yelled. She was amazed by the two elves, who quickly became familiar with the goats. "Have you ever liked a boy?" She asks a random question. She always wanted to ask her female friend about this—a private conversation between women.Auristela frowned. Almeta's question was beyond expectation. She never thought t

    Auristela and Arion had lived in Grassland for a long time. So far, Arion has been busy working, and Auristela has only followed her twin brother while learning to cook with the farmers' wives. Today the farmers don't want to see Arion in their fields and gardens because they know Arion needs to rest and enjoy life while still young. Because the farmers didn't want to accept Arion's presence and they worked on Andres' farm during the day, Auristela pulled Arion's hand to the market, which was in the northern area, which was a few hundred meters from their inn. Auristela has wanted to go to the market for a long time, and this morning she will not waste her chance.Auristela walked happily and a big smile formed on her beautiful face. She was happy to see all the food and products sold in the market; it felt like she wanted to taste all the food. Back in the elf clan, she was forbidden to go out of the palace alone; she always went out with her mother and sat in the horse-drawn carriag

He didn't want to lose a single piece of information entering the palace. Usually, he would know all the news from Anthoni, who would report to him at night. It was the morning and he had already had breakfast; usually, he would go straight from the palace to tour all the Grassland areas. But this morning, he was trapped here, in the king's throne room.

    Arion and Auristela's goal decided to stay in Grassland because they felt Grassland was the closest place to the elven clan and a safe place. After all, the original citizens of Grassland were humans. Although some of them were not pure humans, some were from the Abdian clan, who were humans who were bestowed with the boon of longevity. One that is originally from the Abdian clan is the royal family, and it is said that some nobles are also from the Abdian clan.Arion and Auristela just want to find a country that is comfortable for them to live in and a place where they make money. But they did not expect to meet all of them. Who are they? Andres, Anthoni, Almeta, and Madam Belanca. What made them most uncomfortable was Madam Belanca because the witch knew their identity. Even though Madam Belanca had promised not to reveal they are true identity, they didn't really believe it and were afraid that one day Madam Belanca would use their secret to threaten them or something.However, Ari

    The market was getting busier as several people gathered after hearing the screams of the person who told him he had found a thief's wallet of a mother who was shopping. Market visitors surrounded the thief. Some whispers questioned the truth of the news because the young man accused of being a thief didn't look like a thief.Andres took a deep breath. This is the most unlucky day of his life. He had already explained that he wasn't a thief; someone had bumped into him earlier and didn't know how the stolen wallet fell on the ground next to his feet. A thief hit him; he wasn't the one! But the older man wearing the green shirt didn't believe it and told him to tell the truth. Andres was innocent, so why would he lie? Just because the clothes are the same as the perpetrator!Anthoni's face turned red with anger. He glared at the older man who was accusing Andres. "Don't talk nonsense! He's not a thief! He's my friend, we've always been together since we entered the market. Don't just b

    Andres's routine every morning is walking around Grassland. Usually, he would start walking from the Northeast region, but today he wanted to start from the North region because he was in the mood to buy food. Anthoni is always worried that if Andres buys food at the market, he is afraid that the crown prince will have a stomach ache or have problems with digestion. But so far, Andres had never experienced anything like that, even though he was used to eating highly nutritious foods in the palace.Andres waited for his favorite food, which was being fried. His eyes looked around him. He pays attention to every activity of the citizens he will lead. King Dustin isn't going to give him power any time soon, and he's still too young to be a king anyway. Andres smiled at the sight of small children fighting to feed a bird."Do you remember the first time we met?" Seeing three small children laughing made Anthoni remember the past."I always remember it." Andres nodded. "I can't possibly fo
