Chapter 1-1: Rayria and Vlada

Beautiful blue eyes looked into the telescope.

Rayria, a beautiful girl with snow-white hair, translucent white skin, and slightly pointy ears, wears white pants and climbs to the top of the church tower, which has the best view in the village. She was looking through her telescope with her little butt sticking out.

Her beautiful snow-white hair has a hint of blue on the inside and is long enough to frame her face.

There were six moons in the Zielenbelt sky.

The view was good that day, but only five were visible in the midday sky.

A moon the same size as Earth's moon, and a larger azure and scarlet moon, each floating in the sky as half-moons. Additionally, two large satellites can be seen sinking in the southwest and southeast directions.

This is Heimer village deep in the mountains of Zielenbelt. It is a small village with a population of about 170 people.

Heimer Village is a village built high up on a steep cliff. Topographically, it is a natural fortress divided into a valley cliff area where buildings are lined up along the cliff, and an upper plateau area.

The upper plateau area has gentle slopes and terraces, with a river running through the center and the famous giant water wheel. There are waterfalls on the cliffs, and a river at the bottom of the valley flows into nearby Heimer Lake.

Heimersee is approximately 10-15 kilometers wide and shaped like a heart. There is a small island near the center of the lake.

There is a church at the highest point. This church was built by hollowing out part of a large rock, and has a school attached to it. It is said that this church was originally a temple dedicated to the god of thunder in ancient times.

The view from the church was truly spectacular.

"Hey, Vlada! Look! Look!"

"What happened?"

From the window of the room directly below, Vlada, who was taller than Rayria and had dark blonde hair, looked up at Rayria and reacted. She wears traditional costumes that give her a neat look.

"Look, it's a rock floating between the 'Sister Mountains' deep inside the Crescent Ruins! It's really big!"

Lelia looked through the telescope and saw an "ancient ruin" called the "Crescent Ruins" to the northeast across Lake Heimer. As the name suggests, it is a ruin where a huge crescent-shaped object was built. It is said that it was originally a perfect circle.

Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings.

In the background, you can see a strangely shaped rocky mountain. It is a concave rocky mountain divided into two parts called the Sister Mountains, and there is a huge floating rock floating in the concave part. In the foreground you can see Lake Heimer, the surrounding valley and an area with small floating rocks.

There is a mysterious "magical power" in the land of Zielenbelt, and unlike Earth, gravity is unstable, so some of the rocks are floating.

Vlada uses her palm as a eaves to look into the distance and asks a question.

"Hmm? Were there big floating rocks like this before? Has the shape of the mountain changed?"

"It fell during the last earthquake! But it looks like it'll fall yet doesn't fall... Maybe the gravity there is really unstable? Wanna go take a closer look?"

"Huh...? Wouldn't that be dangerous? Papa would get mad at us too."

Vlada says suspiciously. Rayria only answered that.

"It's okay! I don't need Uncle Jonas's permission! I'm an adult now, right? I've learned powerful magic, and the two of us can do it easily!"

"Adult...Rayria is a half-elf, so her physical age is only 14 years old! you're still a child..."

"...Ugh, it's so troublesome! Please stop being so cocky even though I'm your little sister!"

Rayria objected in frustration.

"And I'm already 17. My body's more mature than Rayria's, got it?"

Vlada teased Rayria by flashing her voluptuous breasts.

"Mmm..."

Rayria was disappointed.

Next to her in Rayria is her pet magical creature, Aruru.

Aruru is a puppy or hamster with lemon yellow fur, cupid-like feathery ears with curled roots, a curly tail, a round body like a baby panda, and red eyes. Or it has a cute face like an axolotl. She has a heart-shaped pink pattern on her belly.

"Ku~n"

Aruru pressed itself close to Rayria's to comfort her.

(When is she going to mature emotionally...?)

Vlada is stunned.

Rayria is a so-called [half-elf].

Therefore, her actual age is 28 years old, but her lifespan is twice that of humans and her growth rate is half that of humans, so her physical age was around 14 human years.

Somewhat sulking, Rayria stroked Aruru's fur.

Then she suddenly looked at the southern sky. Two large moons can be seen in the southwest and southeast directions.

The moon in the southwest is called Luna Forte, and is about twice as large as the azure and scarlet moons, and its color is close to white. It has rings like Saturn, but they look like double parallel dashed lines.

The moon in the southeast is many times larger. It is called [the Giant Moon Ovum], and it is a mysterious moon that swirls just like Jupiter and changes color before you know it.

[the Giant Moon Ovum] is the size of a 20-30cm sphere that you can reach out to.

One more thing: [Svart Mani] was the only thing I couldn't see, but it's actually rare for this moon to be visible.

Vlada asks Rayria.

"Should we ask Hardy to come too?"

"Wha-?! Why Hardy!? No way! He's probably already drunk and chasing women's asses somewhere!"

Rayria snapped irritably.

"You're still mad?"

"It's not that I'm angry or anything...I'm just fine! About Hardy!"

Rayria sulked a little.

"Okay, okay. Got it. Well, next time we'll go check it out."

"Yeah!"

(Yes! Now I've got an excuse to go to the Crescent Ruins!)

What Rayria really wanted to go to was the Crescent Ruins.

Usually her adoptive father, Vlada's father Jonas would scold her severely saying, "Don't you dare go there!"

But Rayria had her reasons for wanting to go to the Crescent Ruins no matter what.
