"oh where my manner.... i am just too excited!"
"Master can't even sleep yesterday because the excitement lady cyrilla"
an old lady... coming after lord Regulus, she is wearing a maid dress with black and white color.. her hair is grey with 2 cat ear and even though she looks old, her eyes has a different aura... fierce and wise.
"Figures... anyway long time no see myrilla!"
"long time no see lady cyrilla... but please come inside the mansion. I have prepared everything for your guests and also our new young mistress"
"ahhh.. thank you, lady myrilla you are so nice..."
"oh my... please call me myrilla, i am just simple commoner don't deserve a "lady" name..."
“Then.... thank you myrilla...”
After all the pleasantries, we are come into the mansion... there are a lot of space inside the mansion.. it is more like fortress then a mansion of noble family. In the lobby there are many weapons wall accessory.. some sofa facing the windows and fire place... on the second floor has many rooms that make me wonder for whom. All I could see, there are just 4 people who lives in this mansion... at the backyard there are small combat fields with armory in the corner...
“say, what or who is grandpa big sis?'
“well, our family mainly involves in the military... our grand father used to be one of three supreme commander of Eiditch kingdom... but now, he just manage oure territory. In spite of that, he still retain some power in the kingdom”
“ah... no wonder...”
“fufufufu father doesn't like to lives like nobles... he is a military man after all”
“Lady Hekate please follow me to your room...”
“Cyaa hek, I recommend to try the bath room... even though, your new grandpa doesn't like nobles on contrary his mansion has a superb bathroom!”
“as Sera said please relax take a bath after that we will have a delicious dinner...”
“okay then cya everyone...”
Ahhh such a large room.... comfy bed... and nice view of the city...
I walk slowly and enjoy the view of the city from the window..
I feel a bit of nostalgia... I miss my own city Elent'dhur... the view when the sun down much more glittering.. the streets full of gold statues combine with the red sun is breathtaking... I always cherish those memories....
“such a large city... and yet compare it with my city was...... less extravagance.”
oh in contrary, they have flying palace in the sky...

Lord Regulus Magna Ziira'eel Pov
When I received the magic letter from my dear granddaughter.. I was really happy but also at the same time surprised... she decided to adopt a girl to our household and more importantly she is the last descendant of elves kind....
She said that, they found her in the ruins around the unexplored area... alone inside the horde of ice trolls turf. That's piqued my interest.. at first I was suspicious about her story. However, when I met her I could see the darkness and sadness inside her eyes the same with cyrillia used to be....
Now, I know the reason why cyrillia adopt her... but something peculiar about her...beside her uniquely beautiful figure with white ash hair and those enchanted golden eyes, her demeanor is so proud and full of dignity like those high king or queen...
now i am having the talk with cyrillia...
"so grandpa, how's your impression of lil sis?"
"hohoho so fascinating.... she really has hard impression on me... her looks and aura both so dignifies and beautiful at the same time.... are all elves like her?"
"i am not sure... i never saw an elves besides her...."
"so what are your plans for her?"
"she said that, she wants to explore this world learns a lot of things... so i want her to go to school first learn about the world currently is.....and friendship..."
"So Combat and Mana Academy?"
"Yes that is why i am coming back for your help grandpa please...."
This child... if she doesn't need my help... she will never come back.... hmmm.....
"It is already time for dinner... after that we discuss this matter with her... cyrilla..."
"Please grandpa... i need your favor!"
"......Sigh.... Cyrilla now you have come back... and you need my favor... i will help you..however.. i am getting old. Our household and our territory need to be managed... you can't run around in the wilds anymore... your responsibility as ziira'eel family needs you..."
".........................."
"I know... this responsibility will always haunt me.............then I am in your care grandpa..."
it seems the wilderness and life as adventurer make her matured... she has her father gaze now...
"of course my dear with pleasure"

Now we are having dinner... gajeel as always has many plates on him and still continue on eating despite the look of the maid looking at him... i bet she is worried all the food supply will eaten by that black hole stomach....
After all done... Cyril ask me to come with her to the library with grandpa....
"I presume big sis and grandpa want to talk about the school thing?"
"hohoho... come here little swallow...."
i walk slowly to grandpa... he looks more serious than last time, his demeanor now has more pressure.. his blue eyes were looking for me passionately...
"little swallow... do you know about the world currently is?"
"Not much... i know there are still a lot of monsters mysteriously spawn all over the world, about adventurer guild, and all the nation agree to cooperate protecting each other from the monsters...."
"then.. there is some basic information you need... first of all this world separated by 5 continents, We are currently in east continent which governed solely by Eidith kingdom. In the far west continent, there are many kingdoms however, they all in one alliance called Eteria United Federation or EU. While the north consist many small kingdoms and still in warring state .However, currently one of the kingdom gained momentum and emerge victorious over many wars... At the center, we called middle earth continent, reigned by Holy Empire Centro and also the place of The Nine Holy Light church.
And the last the unexplored continent. Which has many dangerous beasts and monsters... The rumor said that the continent were controlled by 4 ancient beast that lives in the age of gods.”
“The age of Gods? What is that?”
“In the Bible of Ancient from The Nine Holy Light church said, before all of this. In the past, when there is only one continent... There are many gods living, reign over many kind of races... They battling each other days and nights for the supremacy. The age of chaos happen in many... many years. Then in one fateful day, four supreme being, four most powerful gods among the gods meet. The purpose of this meeting to end this chaos and war, But one of them turn to greed, he betrayed other supreme being and unleash a world end spell that trigger the start of The world catastrophe. The world were split into five, The sky bleed, Monsters rampaging in all over the world, killing and feasting over many bodies.. But then the nine gods come.. they protected us and lead us. They teach us until we could stand by ourselves and survive in that merciful era.”
“Ah.... so after the catastrophe only 9 gods exist?”
“yes lil sis that is only records we have known”
“who are the nine gods ?”
“The Goddess of war and Punishment, Freyja the flame hearth, The God of Sea and water Baruna the high Dragon, The God of knowledge and Technology Brahma, The Goddess of Moon and Love Serenity, The goddess of justice and honesty Justinia,The God of Trickery and Wisdom Loki, The God of Darkness and Tranquility Shiva, The Goddess of light and virtue Lady Lichtiel, and last The supreme one, king of Gods Indra....”
“...............i.... see...................”
“Also in this world there are power ranking such as from the lowest.. Novice, Senior, Master, Grand Master, Sage and Divine... If you aim for become an adventurer you need at least in the Senior stage.”
“So, how do I get recognition to achieve that?”
“First , you need to pass from any school, to do that you need to finish all the quests from the school and gain recognition by masters who teach the classes”
That is weird... Stages were classified not by recognition but by a duel dead and life between two people and also achievement in combat........
“So, if I finish school I got recognition as senior stage?”
“ Yea dear sister... fufufufu but I am sure you will pass school easily..”
“big sister and granpa what is your stage now?”
“hohohoho... I don't want to brag but I am at grandmaster stage while your sister cyrrila still on master stage”
“If passing school you got recognition as senior stage after that how we improve our stage.”
“through achievement of course......, Grandpa has many achievement on the war with the monsters.. and me, my achievement was finished many subjugation monsters quests also the best one we have conquered 4 level S dungeon fufufu..."
"whoaaaaaa........grandpa you are awesome!!! "
"hohohoho of course my dear hohoho"
"hmph just grandpa??"
" no no big sis much more awesome! you are still young but could achieve master stage!"
"fufuufufufufu..."
"but umm.... what is dungeon??"
"Oh well! dungeon is a den of monsters, every monsters usually coming from a rift.. a rift will be evolve into a dungeon... the bigger the rift, the hardest dungeon can get.... dungeon itself divided by five level ...so far..... from the hardest S,A,B,C,and D. If you conquered the dungeon you will get a lot of treasures and the dungeon will become a gold mines. The adventurer who conquered it get 10% shareholder from the mines, because every mines that discovered will be owned by the kingdom who own the area"
