[6 year after the first portal of devil opened]
[12 years old Charlotte point of view]
"Tyrant Megalodon, chomp it down" [Charlotte]
The portal of devil, summoning an icy devil from the demon race open up at the Rock and Sea dungeon. There are other adventures and knights here as well to help me, but they're simply unnecessary. I have told Sis Diana about it, and yet she still insist on sending the 13 year old 4th prince Zaidi with few back-ups to help me
"GAAAAAH!" [Icy devil]
"The devil, it's struggling to even beat her Tyrant Megalodon down!" [Zaidi]
"That's the power of the raging water magician, Charlotte!" [Apprentice knight]
Time to end this, as I signal the Tyrant Megalodon to ripped down the neck of the icy devil, decapitating it in instant. When all is done, another portal open, and this time, an army of the same devil enter the fray, quickly marching toward us
"All knight and adventure! Prepare to back her up!" [Zaidi]
"Yes!" [Other]
"No need. This is my domain here, plus, they're weak" [Charlotte]
"What? You can't be serious!" [Zaidi]
"You should put a little bit more trust into me" [Charlotte]
This is after all, the rock and SEA dungeon. There are water literally everywhere! Even the air in this dungeon contains abundance of water mana that I could easily manipulate, but the real advantage of me fighting the devils here will be manipulating the sea water
"Raging sea! Swept them to the bottom of the sea!" [Charlotte]
And thus, a mini tsunami swept the army into the depth of the sea. Drowning is a horrific way to die, even if your opponent is the devils themselves, thus, using the pressure from the depth of the sea, I quickly crush their skulls, ending their lives instantly. Their blood can't even make it to the surface as bloody sea leaches already eat it. Suffice to say I also kill the sea leaches as currently, we have no exact idea about what will happen should a monster eat any part of the devil. Some scholars claim nothing happens, while some reported the monster becoming highly violence. Better be safe than sorry
"And that's that" [Charlotte]
"Unbelievable, simply unbelievable" [Zaidi]
"Told you that I don't need any help" [Charlotte]
"Can you please take whatever loot the devils carried?" [Zaidi]
"Eehhh..." [Charlotte]
"Please" [Zaidi]
"Right..." [Charlotte]
The loots only consists of few armors and weapons, but they're of great quality, but I don't think it will be of any use for me, and thus, I let the fourth prince take it and distribute it for the knight and adventure here. My staff and pistol that Brother Ash made are more than enough for me

Taking the lead, Zaidi and I went back to the dungeon entrance. Greeted by the same old guard that us siblings come to know from six years back, we quickly use Zaidi's personal carriage and went to the castle to report the incident to Sis Diana.
Strictly speaking, this matter fall under the job scope of the Ministry of Defense, but since the first prince had attempted to use us for personal gain in the past, Sister Diana quickly take countermeasure and thus, both the prince and princess take the matter into their hand, though Sis Diana has a better response, as Zaidi once said, it's a hassle to request the Ministry of Defense to deploy their knight, and by the time they're deployed, damage is already done
"Dear sister, we are here to report the incident at the Rock and Sea dungeon" [Zaidi]
(Can't he report it by himself, why am I getting drag along...) "Chocolate banana cake!" [Charlotte]
"There you are, come here and eat with me, Charlotte" [Diana]
"Yes!" [Charlotte]
Chocolate banana cake! Chocolate banana cake! The head chef of the castle always make the best chocolate banana cake. A bite of it, and I can feel the melt of the chocolate sip through the very deep layer of my tongue, spreading evenly. The smell, the taste, it's heavenly
"There's my cute Charlotte. You aren't cute when you try to imitate Ash you know" [Diana]
"I ain't imitating Brother Ash!" [Charlotte]
(Yes you are) [Qis]
"Well, you quickly changing from imitating Ash to your true cute self has it own charm I suppose" [Diana]
That again! I swear, I'm just Charlotte!
Eating the remaining of the chocolate banana cake all for myself, I quickly make the report about what transpired inside the Rock and Sea dungeon.
"I see. Thank you Charlotte for all your hard work. You too Zaidi, I'm proud of you" [Diana]
"You're welcome. Plus, they're coming after all. As their sister from another orphanage, it's my job to protect them" [Charlotte]
"True. Before you leave, here take the cake and give it to your siblings" [Diana]
"Right" [Charlotte]
"Can I join, I feel like using the training hall" [Zaidi]
"Someone having a crush on Charlotte" [Diana]
"I'm not! And Charlotte, what's with the disgust face!?" [Zaidi]
No, let not talk about it.
As the two of us quickly went out, I take Zaidi offer to use his personal carriage, and before going to the orphanage, it's my turn to do the shopping today, when
"Ahh, Sis Charlotte!" [Green hair boy]
"Can we join you?" [Orange hair girl]
"Sure, but don't buy too much sweet, Sis Diana gave us enough Chocolate banana cake for dinner" [Charlotte]
"Right!" [Orphans]
Taking our sweet leisurely time, I almost forgot that there is someone else with us, and when I told him that he can go ahead to the training hall
"Don't worry, this is also part of my daily breather" [Zaidi]
"..." [Charlotte]
"I told you I don't have any crush on you!" [Zaidi]
"But you're blushing?" [Orange hair girl]
"That's!" [Zaidi]
"..." [Charlotte]
"I give up..." [Zaidi]
That's fun, teasing him like that. I wonder, is this what Brother Ash and Sis Diana did to each other back then? Probably a big yes
After the shopping, we quickly went back
"I'm tired..." [Elise]
Looks like her daily routine as the vice leader of Valkyrie once again leave her tired.
Out of the twelve of us from back then, only Elise, Kara and I are currently in Estel, while the rest went out to other countries to do some work. I wonder, what are they doing right now
