Chapter 136: The Sumr Nights
Since there will be the Fireworks festival that will be happening the next night, Elaina decided to take it easy for a while until tomorrow. Now that the upcoming festival will be held late at night, she thinks that she should take it easy for a while and lessen her overall work. It is not that she is getting lazy, she just wants to relax for a bit and have an easy ti. After all, if a person just keeps on working without any sort of rest, then things might go grim in the process. She left the work to the Feys by giving them twice the amount of pay they would receive every day.
Right now, despite Elaina relaxing, she is still not fully relaxed and is currently spending her ti fishing on the stream.
"I thought you would be relaxing? Why are you even fishing right now?" the Harvest Goddess asked as she rocked baby Mier to sleep.
"Eh, I am still relaxing. Fishing is a relaxing task you know? And I also wanted to slowly fill up the fishing catalog as well. There is nothing wrong with what I am doing. I should be the one who should be asking you. This is pretty rare for you to be the one doing the task of making a baby sleep. You usually just go and lie down while eating and relaxing, what about Mier’s Mother?" Elaina asked curious as to what was currently happening with the rfolk that the Harvest Goddess accepted in her domain.
"She is working hard on my domain. She is very eager to pay back all of what I have done for her baby and for
taking them in. She felt guilty if she couldn’t sohow pay
for everything."
"And you gave her work?"
"Yep. Although it wasn’t tough work, it would take a while for her to be done with it. So in the anti, I am the one currently babysitting this baby. Even though this shouldn’t be my job, well, what can I do?"
"Well, you took that job without a second of hesitation then you deal with it, of course."
The Harvest Goddess said nothing else as the baby finally fell asleep.
"Alright then, I will go back to my realm. If you plan to drop so offering or sothing to ask , just do the usual, alright?" the Harvest Goddess then dived back into the water and disappeared.
"Looks like she didn’t realize that she is slowly awakening her parental side."
Elaina can only smile at the slow change of the Harvest Goddess. Elaina continued to fish for a while until the sun set on the horizon. If the sumr days are very hot, the mont the day shifts to the night, the air becos cold and chilly. Perhaps this is the way the world is currently "sweating" and cooling off from the whole day’s sweltering heat.
After gathering all of the fish she caught so far, Elaina returned to the farmhouse and started to prepare dinner for everyone. Tomorrow is gonna be another day.

The next day, Elaina did the sa thing as yesterday except watering the crops and caring for them for a while before relaxing for the rest of the day. Instead of fishing, Elaina just decided to remain on the patio and observe the massive farm that she still can’t believe to be hers now. She is enjoying the work that is being done by the Feys as they move around the field with extre professionalism. Elaina is lucky that the Fey decided to ask her to hire them, or else, she will have to resort to Julia doing all of the work while she also does her own set of works as well.
Elaina continued to observe the farm until she didn’t realize that she slowly drifted to sleep.

"Sis? Hey Sis...Wake up."
"H-huh?" Elaina rubs her eyes as she slowly tries to adjust her vision to her surroundings.
"You are finally awake, Sis. That took so ti before you fully awakened," Julia said as she wiped off her sweat.
"Eh? I fell asleep?" Elaina just realized that point after she finally adjusted her eyes to her surroundings.
"Looks like the fatigue has dawned on you sis that you didn’t realize you fell asleep."
"I guess. I an, I feel refreshed after that little nap that I just did just now."
Elaina then looked around and noticed that the surroundings were getting dark already.
"I already prepared dinner, Sis. So you don’t need to worry about the food. Princess Margaux and Zaza are waiting for us at the mont."
"Right...tonight is the day of the Fireworks festival," Elaina stretched her arms.
"Yes. I suggest eating lightly tonight Sis. After all, we might be eating a lot of food later on since Guy will be the one cooking for free."
Elaina then rembered about that bit and she felt energized hearing that. "Yeah. Let’s go."
The two girls chatted as they entered the farmhouse, not aware that tonight would be the night that Elaina would never forget. At the mont, things are still innocent. But later, it will be a literal bloodbath.

After their preparations, the three went on their way to the beach. This is the first ti that the three ventured out to the town at night like this. At first, they thought it would be gloomy and dark but contrary to their expectations, it seems the festival is currently blooming quite well and the nightti beca a bit lively.
Villagers are gathering around with both friends and families gathered at one another. They even saw a few familiar faces currently attending the fireworks festival.
As Elaina is about to head to the stall that guy is cooking, she sees Troy currently enjoying his ti with none other than Doctor Fey. Elaina was surprised at first but she didn’t find it strange. After all, she has seen signs of her brother currently hinting at his feelings for the doctor.
Instead of crashing and disturbing their "date
