[At Kiserre castle]
[Crow point of view]
It doesn't take a genius to understand how severely damage Kiserre is right now. The royalty that they trust betray them, their own citizen kidnapped for their own benefits and those from outside are getting involved as well. The church where they go to find peace and pray did a 180 degree action, unbefitting for those carrying out Goddess Achalasia will.
One side do it for power, another side do it to get ever so close with the goddess of light, Theia through angelic transformation. Needless to say, their citizens are the one getting all the bad things in the end
"How could we trust Queen Rinz?"
"She got cursed so easily and now, she wanted to rule once more? She is a woman yo begin with!"
"Plus, why aren't they taking any action on the church!"
"Are you sure the church is involved? Their statement said they're the one helping liberating the slave and all"
"Don't you hear what your neighbor said? Her son get kidnapped by them"
Those are the topics that have been discussed among their citizens for the past one week. As an outsider, there's nothing much left for us to do
"Thank you to all of you for helping me" [Queen Rinz]
The queen bowed to us, to show us her gratitude. The four queen of Estel never bother to show any sign of gratitude, but she's different
"You're welcome your highness" [Other]
We bow back to show our due respect, and a short private ceremony is held to award us with medal of honour, before resuming our talk
"So all of you will leave by tomorrow I suppose?" [Queen Rinz]
"Most likely. The headquarters will be in total havoc should I wait any longer" [Saint Louis]
"I should report all that's happening here to King Druser personally. Plus, there's the issue with those two traitors" [Aries]
"I will depart to Malsia as I believe there's not much left for me to do here. Of course, I will report it to the king" [Naoto]
"As for Lisa and I, there are really nothing much for us to offer anymore, thus I believe going back to Estel and discussing it with the king will be the best course of action" [Crow]
"True, we are sorry we can't be any more of help" [Lisa]
"It's fine, on the contrary, you guys have been helping me so much" [Queen Rinz]
Just as we are about to continue our discussion, a royal maid come to deliver a letter from Mrs Khamishah to the Queen
"Oh my" [Queen Rinz]
I wonder what happen

[Farhah point of view]
A fairy! How cute! And she's small as well. It has been a while since I last saw once. Back then, I was with my parents before they are...
Now, the fairy demand a new home for her. Tree of life! Let us make a tree of life!
"I want to help!" [Farhah]
"Sure! A pure Avery like you will know the best!" [Calypso]
"!" [Farhah]
"?" [Other]
"Huh, I didn't know that" [Ash]
"What is, an Avery?" [Diana]
"Nothing! Nothing!" [Farhah]
This little fairy! How did she knew that? It isn't strange but I thought the function of this bracelet is to hide something within us? Brother Ash never really explain what is it but I thought my blood as an Avery can be kept a secret with it! Thank god they didn't know about Avery, but Brother Ash seems surprise about it, and from the looks of it, he knows what is an Avery.
"Brother Ash..." [Farhah]
Time to use my secret weapon! Begging eyes! Brother Ash biggest weakness when it comes to us, and it works! That's why we love you Brother Ash!
.
.
.
We search for a suitable soil to plant our magical seed, and the place will be just beside the pool, and as per suggestion from Kara, we move it further a bit as to prevent the leave entering the pool, that's when
"Cool! An A rank wood magic core!" [Zerolith]
"Haha! My previous master did stock quite a bit of it. Unfortunately, most of them are deteriorating and I could only bring out this one" [Calypso]
Unauthorized tale usage: if you spot this story on Amazon, report the violation.
"Do you want to make a fortress defense magic?" [Ash]
"I do! And I won't need your meany help!" [Calypso]
"Sure" [Ash]
"Eeh... I mean, if you could help, I would be thankful!" [Calypso]
"But you say you don't need my help" [Ash]
"I don't! But, please..." [Calypso]
"I'm too drowsy, maybe later" [Ash]
"Fine! I won't ask your help ever again!" [Calypso]
They're both so childish. Can't they act all grown up and mature like Mrs Saga there or Princess Diana and her royal guard.
After more and more arguing (with Rean, Elise, Muse, Ray, Lily and Liyana chuckling), Brother Ash started the process of making another fortress defense magic, and this time around, he uses a wood magic for it. His mana is quickly decreasing, I should help as well!
(By my name, Farhah, and by the power within me as the Avery, O mother earth, strengthen this magic core!) [Farhah]
"!" [Ash]
It been quite long since I use this magic. I wonder why I suddenly use it? Still, my mana is quickly getting drained, thus Brother Ash asked me to rest. I guess that will do
"Here" [Karon]
"You're my saviour" [Farhah]
~Gulp~
The expansive mana potion, I feel bad gulping it down in one go, but I'm too tired because of the lack of mana
".. / .-- .. .-.. .-.." [Calypso tree]
"It said I will, that mean!" [Mara]
"It's a success!" [Ray]
And now it manipulate the magical seed
""Make tree of life!!"" [Farhah, Calypso]
"That's plain impossible. Just make one honey tree please, and surround yourself with sweet nectar that can act as a trap when needed" [Ash]
".- .-.. .-. .. --. .... -" [Calypso tree]
".. .----. .-.. .-.. / .... . .-.. .--." [Housey]
"Please help" [Ash]
Guess that will do. The tree of life is where the Fairy Queen, Titania resides after all, and as an elf, no more than that, as a pure Avery, I have to go and visit there one day, as to get her blessing.
Brother Ash then ask the Calypso tree to make an elemental trees, and
~Collapsed~
Brother Ash collapse. He does use almost all of his mana, so he should see that coming. Mrs Khamishah here then ask for a tour, for which not only Brother Ash, but all of us join in as well
Yesterday, she had the opportunity to see our daily routine for a bit as we explain what we do here. She seems shock when she learned that we are free to study and train here however we please, not working nor we have to pay anything for it. It's totally free. I guess we really are a lucky bunch
During the tour, we show her the pool that Brother Ash made for us, and Charlotte here constantly ask all of us to swim together. Maybe next time
~Sulk~
And she's sulking. Can't be help, we have a guest here. Sis Rafiah quickly lift her up and we walk toward the training room.
Since it's weekday, and it's already past noon, the training hall is open. Usually, the number of adventures and soldiers visiting here are numerous, but due to the recent attack, they stopped coming for a while. I ask one of them why, but they simply say that they wanted to give us some time to recover. Recover what?
"I see, to think there are two spawning blocks here, and not to mention, and thank to upgrading Housey, it can now summon an A rank monster without much difficulty" [Khamishah]
"As compared to before, it is, but that doesn't mean we should. It will deplete the mana, and maybe render it useless shall we constantly use it that way" [Ash]
So, upgrading Housey has a tremendous benefit to the training hall functionality. Mrs Khamishah here ask to test the spawning block, for which Brother Ash permitted it. Housey spawn an A rank giant commander zombie, but as expected from the strongest adventure, it didn't take her that long to finish the zombie.
"All she does is wrap that zombie around the neck and punch it repeatedly!" [Kadeus]
"That, and she keeps applying pressure to the neck, causing the giant zombie to be suffocated" [Ray]
"Can zombie even suffocate?" [Kat]
"They are undead, but they do behave the same as living being" [Muse]
"And as to prevent the zombie from attacking due to desperation, she simply detached the limbs through sheer force" [Rean]
"That's the saga for you!" [Adventure]
"I wonder if we can even hold a candle against her" [Ray]
"I don't want to think about it" [Liyana]
"Even Brother Ash can't beat her back then" [Zerolith]
She really is strong. I wonder, is there a secret behind her strength. I should ask for it
"What's the secret behind your strength!" [Spearman adventure]
"Training" [Khamishah]
"That's all?" [Axeman adventure]
"Training and more training. Keep on pushing your limit, identify your strength and weaknesses, do it every day and I can guarantee you, you will see the difference" [Khamishah]
"I see" [Qis]
Princess Diana bodyguard take a note from the advice. Even someone like her still take an advice! I should jot it down as well!
"Interesting, how about a match with me then?" [Mahsuri]
"!" [Other]
Huh? When did she come? And more importantly
"Hey! The training hall will collapse!" [Ash]
"Ash, you join us as well" [Mahsuri]
"Don't you hear what I just said!? Khamishah, say something!" [Ash]
"I accept" [Khamishah]
"EEHH!" [Other]
"But the training hall will really collapse!" [Diana]
Even the princess is worried about it
"Then do it outside, at the dungeon" [Mahsuri]
"I can't, under house arrest" [Ash]
"Then I'll simply drag you there" [Mahsuri]
~Water rope~
"Wait wait wait wait! I'm not ready!" [Ash]
~Dash~
The new twin, Lara and Nara approach Brother Ash. They try to do something
"Ooh, so you two can absorb mana, but too bad, you guys aren't that strong enough yet. Train hard as to increase the proficiency" [Mahsuri]
""..."" [Lara, Nara]
"Now let us go" [Mahsuri]
"Sure" [Khamishah]
"I said wait!" [Ash]
We look at each other and
"Let us follow them!" [Farhah]
"I have a bad feeling about this" [Rean]
"Nah, I'm good! And serve him right!" [Calypso]
We quickly use the bus golem, and this time, it's Elise turn to drive us around
