The servant led to the garden, and I smiled a little. As a Druid, I’m more comfortable when I stay close to nature, and the garden is good enough for .
"This is the garden, Grandmaster. If there’s anything else, please let know."
"Thank you. As for my request... Can you get so juice?"
"What kind of juice, Grandmaster?"
"Orange or apple will be fine."
"Of course. I’ll be back with the juice."
"Thank you."
After saying that, I walked around the garden. Most of the flowers in this garden are decorative, serving no purpose other than making the area look pretty or being used as ingredients for perfu.
However, there are quite a few fruit trees like apples, oranges, and pears. I also noticed a box full of honey bees at the edge of the garden, far away from people.
"Grandmaster."
I looked to the side and saw a servant approaching with two glass jugs filled with orange and apple juice. Not only that, but there was also a platter of fruits, cheese, and three slices of cake. I smiled at her and noticed her blushing a little in response.
"Thank you. You can go back to whatever you were doing."
"Of course, Grandmaster. I’ll wait here if you need my help."
I nodded and watched her walk away, leaving with the tray of juice and snacks. Why did she bring all of this here? Moreover, she brought three cups for . No one other than was in this place, but she set out three cups. Oh well.
Also... there’s too much juice here. I released a sigh and took the food tray trolley to the biggest tree in the garden. I poured so of the juice and sat underneath the tree. While enjoying my silence, I decided to summon [Fenrir] and [Okami].
After the magic circle disappeared, I saw the two wolves appear in front of , and they ran toward . I let them lick my face as I laughed happily. I took out the pet food from my inventory and gave each of them a treat.
"Here you go."
I smiled a little when I saw them happily eating the treats. I continued patting their heads as I enjoyed the warm day. Winter would soon co, and the weather would start to get cold. I needed to enjoy this warmth before it turned into chilling cold.
While basking in the sun, I heard the servant talking to soone. My eyes widened when I saw that the person she was talking to was an elf. She had silver hair and green eyes. She was slender, just like any elf, but unlike the elves at ho, she didn’t have the muscles showing through her clothes.
However, the woman behind her was not soone you could underestimate. She was slender, but her body was packed with muscles. She could crush skulls if she managed to grab her enemy’s head. I noticed she had a rapier on her belt, and I could feel the blade was enchanted with a complex spell.
I patted Fenrir and Okami one last ti and walked toward this group. As I got closer, I overheard them talking about using the garden. Well, the garden was massive, and two more people wouldn’t hurt.
When I got close enough, I said, "You didn’t need to forbid others from enjoying the garden, you know?"
The servant turned around and quickly bowed her head.
"I’m sorry for disturbing your peaceful day, Grandmaster!"
I waved my hand and replied, "You didn’t disturb or anything. Let them enjoy the garden as well. It’s a massive garden, after all. Two more people won’t disturb my peaceful day."
"Of course, Grandmaster! I am sorry, Grandmaster!"
"As I said, you didn’t need to apologize."
After saying that, I looked at the two elves, who were staring at with wide eyes. I waved at them and gave them a bright smile.
"Good afternoon. My na is Gwyndolin Alexander Cunningham, Grandmaster of dicine of Gipan Kingdom, S-rank Adventurer, Leader of S-rank Adventurer Party called Six Stars Party, and Heir of Cunningham County."
The King and Duke Verqur had asked to introduce myself with all my important titles. Those four were the most important titles for . I didn’t like introducing myself this way because it was too long of an introduction and too formal for .
I only wanted to use this kind of introduction for soone who pissed off. These people were not doing wrong just yet, but because of the King and Duke Verqur’s request, I needed to do this. I shook my head and looked at our guests just to see them looking at in shock.
I waved my hand in front of them and said, "Hello? Anybody there?"
I even snapped my fingers in front of them, and it seed to snap them out of whatever they were thinking. Wait. From the length of their ears, they were High Elves, huh? The creatures with the most connection with Nature.
Were they shocked at the amount of mana inside my body? That must be it.
I gave them a smile and said, "Are you guys okay?"
The young woman was the first one to snap out of it and gave a bright smile.
"We are doing great, Grandmaster Gwyndolin. I am sorry for staring at you earlier. We are creatures of magic, and we cannot help but look at you in surprise. You have a large amount of it. It is like seeing a massive waterfall with an infinite amount of water."
"I see. That is not a problem."
It looked like I was right. High Elves, elves with the longest ears among their kind, were creatures with the most connection to magic, and they were so sensitive to it that they could imdiately determine how powerful soone was by looking at their mana.
"You want to enjoy the garden, right? Follow . I will show you around the garden. As the Grandmaster of dicine, I know a lot about plants and animals."
The woman nodded her head quickly and said, "It will be our pleasure, Grandmaster! Thank you for taking care of us."
"It is not a problem. Co on. Ah, you did not need to worry about those two. They are my companions. They will not attack you as long as you do not attack ."
Seeing her nod, I took her and her guard around the garden.

|Ashryn Erharice Ozawen – Princess of Ozawen Kingdom|
I looked at the man in front of us with admiration and confusion. Admiration because I knew how powerful he was, not rely because of the mana contained inside his body. While that was a factor, many magicians with large mana reserves had fallen in battle to weak monsters or even weaker opponents.
Grandmaster Gwyndolin, on the other hand, possessed a depth that I could not see or feel. I could sense a massive tree, the Tree of Life, and the ho of the Elven Gods within his soul. Moreover, I perceived an infinite void filled with stars that moved around as if dancing to the rhythm of his breath. It was beautiful and terrifying simultaneously.
The man before was a formidable Champion of the Elves appointed by the Gods.
Last year, all the Oracles of the entire Elven Kingdom in the Central Continent had a vision—a vision of the birth of the Champion of the Elven Kingdom. They only needed to see a silhouette of Mother Nature hugging the champion as proof of their identity.
The Elven Champion would hold the highest authority over all elves. Due to this, many kings, including my father, aid to establish a good relationship with the Elven Champion. Unfortunately, they had never t this champion. So individuals attempted to impersonate the champion, but the Gods prevented them from doing so. Lightning, Fire, or Wind would strike them down in the most brutal manner. After the fifth occurrence of God’s Wrath descending upon the mortal plane because of these sinners, they ceased their attempts to deceive others into believing they were the champion.
If the first factor did not convince to trust him as the Elven Champion, the companion standing by his side would have dispelled any doubts within .
I could see them—the Guardian of the Moon and the Guardian of the Sun standing between the Tree of Life. This sight sealed any remaining doubt inside . I didn’t know how he had encountered the guardians of the Moon and Sun, but I was aware that the Gods were the ones who reunited the two guardians with the champion.
"And that is the last plant in the garden."
"I see. That is very interesting knowledge, Grandmaster."
"I’m glad that you like it. Anyway–"
However, before he could finish his sentence, a servant walked toward us and said, "I’m sorry to interrupt you, Grandmaster. However, the king is ready to receive the guest."
Grandmaster Gwyndolin nodded and looked at .
"Shall we?"
"Yes. We shall."
I needed to adjust my objective for coming here a little bit. I knew that my father would agree with this decision.
