Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation | Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Yarin’s POV:
I imdiately replied loudly, not daring to look Lily in the eye, so I said without looking up, “Ti’s up. Let’s go.” Then, I pulled her and ran toward the house.
Lily let hold her hand. As we ran, I seed to hear a soft and helpless sigh.
As soon as I entered the door, Kara silently appeared in front of . I felt a little nervous, especially when I thought that Kara might follow all the way. The excitent of the Moonlight Festival was not as intense.
I subconsciously wanted to complain to the people around , but I realized my hands were empty. Lily pulled her hand away and walked to a corner from the crowd.
I felt lost.
“Mom said we can eat as much candy as we want today!” Heller whispered to eagerly, “It’s said that Silver Moon Pack would make many special flavors of soft sweets and put them in the candies distributed on the streets. I must collect all the flavors!”
“I will help you.”
I was not interested in candies. Heller liked candies very much. However, ever since he ate too much sugar in the third grade and got tooth decay, my mother had strictly limited the sugar intake of the three of us.
The Silver Moon Plaza had a long history. When the ancient Silver Moon Pack was still small, it was used for social gatherings, sacrifices, and other important occasions. Over ti, the once-heavy work here gradually faded away and beca a symbolic landmark of the Silver Moon Pack.
Silver Moon Plaza was packed with people on the day of the Moonlight Festival. The dia had already set up their broadcasting equipnt. Reporters were randomly interviewing the laughing crowd on the roadside. The police were maintaining order. The float was parked in a temporary garage by the roadside. The n, won, and children who participated in the performance were either nervously tidying up their makeup or chatting excitedly with their companions.
All of this had a novel touch. I could finally forget my identity and responsibilities and beco a true mber of the Moonlight Festival, enjoying the annual festival with the people.
I was supposed to stay with my parents, but Lily was alone in a corner. So, Heller and I also went to accompany her.
“Return to His Majesty, princes.” Lily said, “Don’t mind . I prefer to be alone than to be busy.”
“I promise that we will be quiet and not disturb you.” I pleaded. “I don’t like small talk. Those officials have had to chat with my parents for a long ti. My face is stiff from smiling.”
With our persuasion, Lily finally agreed to let us follow her.
Soone was already giving out candies on the roadside. Heller gazed at those delicate baskets as if his soul had flown away.
“Do you want so candy?” Lily asked.
Heller nodded. Closely after that, she led us out of the tent and ca to a lady disguised as a water swamp fairy.
“Happy Moonlight Festival!” said the lady happily. She took out so sweets from the basket and handed them to us. Heller took them happily.
He looked at it and shouted excitedly, “It’s one of the unique flavors! I got it, I got it on my first try!”
He held up the Silver Moon’s unique flavored moonlight fudge. It was the flavor of ‘Morning Clouds’. The mint-green candy wrapper had the Silver Moon Family’s emblem printed.
“Congratulations, child!” The lady did not recognize us. She was as happy as if she had obtained the unique flavored candy herself. “There are a total of twenty unique flavors this year. The unique candy wrapper will have a unique pattern of the Silver Moon printed on it.”
“Twenty flavors?” After hearing so many novel candies, Heller beca more excited, “Dear fairy, do you have any other flavors for ?”
‘Water swamp Fairy’ smiled but didn’t reply. “The joy of collecting lies in the surprises, right?”
Although rejected, Heller was not disappointed. After bidding farewell to this lady, he almost couldn’t wait to run to another person who distributed candies.
Lili and I imdiately stopped him. I said, “Mom and Dad will start their speech soon. Let’s go later. Moonlight fudges won’t run away on their own!”
Back in the tent, our parents had already exchanged greetings with the officials and the local nobles. Kara was still guarding our seats.
But I knew she had been watching us through the window. After the initial awkwardness, it was quite good to have soone by our side. At the very least, this way, the number of security personnel going everywhere for our safety on the surface would be greatly reduced.
I knew it was not really reduced, but I could relax a little if they weren’t that obvious.
We observed the hidden soft candy that we had just obtained. What did the ‘Morning Clouds’ taste like?
I looked at Lily, but she wasn’t as familiar with the Silver Moon Pack as I was, so she didn’t know either.
“Do you want to try it?” She suggested, “You’ll know what it tastes like after you eat it.”
Heller was a bit hesitant. Of course, he wanted to know the taste of the soft candy. However, ‘this was a limited edition’. Holding that delicate candy, he hesitated, “If I ate it, I wouldn’t get the sa one again. What if I can’t get the sa one later? Then, I will lose it forever.”
Lily seed to want to say sothing; however, when she saw Heller’s conflicted look, she finally swallowed her words..
