Lucia suddenly had a realisation. She gently hugged my arm and, by my ear, asked, Your Highness, you are going to Hilles City next, right?
I caressed Lucias long ears with a smile: Lucia, do you want to co?
Lucia firmly refused the offer: No. My mories in humanitys lands are, frankly, terrible.
Indeed, Lucias mories in humanitys lands were horrendous. I was sorry. I swear, if I knew Lucia was coming over in her wedding dress, I would never have done that with Nier at the ti. Wait, even if I did know, I probably wouldve done it with Nier anyway, as I needed to save her! It was a necessary part of saving Nier! I probably wouldve saved her, but I wouldve told Lucia about it, which wouldve allowed us to avoid all the problems that ca thereafter.
Lucia was still vexed about losing the duel. That was why she never wanted to set foot on humanitys soil. I doubted Lucia would ever go there if Troy City wasnt nad after . Accordingly, I had to abandon Lucia to go to humanitys lands for the baptism.
I wanted to know if the water the humans spoke of was the elven spring water or not. Even if it wasnt, I need to find out what the miraculous water was. If it had to do with magic, then it was definitely linked to elves. The biggest problem was that elven mana should be ineffective for humans. By logic, then, that so-called holy water had to be magic, or it had to be connected to sothing more complex, where it was utilised as a tool. At the very least, we needed to start investigating it from the elven side.
We needed to know if a human ca over to get their hands on it. Elves and humans previously had a trading agreent, but very few humans ca over. After the alliance between the two races was established, more humans visited the elven lands.
I knew Mommy Elizabeth didnt explicitly harbour any ill-ill toward elves. Put another way, Mommy Elizabeth would never send a spy or soone to sabotage elves. If sobody ca and stirred trouble, nonetheless, it would an that Mommy Elizabeth tacitly gave consent. I was cognizant of the fact my two moms didnt have the best relationship of course, that was still because of
It must have to do with Daisy, am I right?
I nodded: Yeah, its about Daisys baptism. I dont believe in their religion, but Mommy Elizabeth really wants for Daisy to go through the ceremony. It is the first ti the royal familys descendant is returning to Hilles City, after all. I bet itll be quite the grandeur event
=======
Fast forward to when Nier and Daisy return to Hilles City for the first ti
Her Majesty has returned! Royal Princess has brought Her Majesty back!!
News of their return sounded as if a volcano erupted when the Valkyries heard of it. With Hilles City as the centre, news of their return instantly spread to the entirety of humanitys empire. Rosvenor Familys descendant was returning to the nation she ruled. Not long after news spread, all of the roads in the city were jamd with traffic. The military nearby entered the city to prepare for a grand parade. All of the vassal states gifts were delivered to the Royal Palace. It was all done to celebrate Daisys birth, and the first ti her family returned to the nation.
Elizabeth proudly went back and forth in the crowds. Elizabeth had been in the conference hall and seldom made appearances the last few days. So people could even hear her cheerfully humming a tune. Nier, on the other hand, was in a tragic situation. She was originally a Valkyrie and, therefore wasnt use to socialising, yet she was by Daisys side the entire ti as her mother and had to welco lots of people. She couldnt give them, the ladies-in-waiting who wanted to see Daisy or the nobles, the cold shoulder. Elizabeth wasnt always by her side, so Nier was driven to the brink of insanity.
The scale of the situation didnt pale in comparison to the Empresss birthday celebration. The vassal states rushed into the Royal Palace to see Niers daughter. Though they were sowhat disappointed to find Rosvenor Familys descendant wasnt a boy, seeing Elizabeths high spirits, everyone thought they saw Elizabeth in Daisy. Nobody knew how Daisy would turn out in the future.

I went to the elven spring. I didnt know why I went there, but I felt as though there was a voice calling out to . I continued to see the spring mouth in my dreams the last two nights. I could always hear the sound of the water from the spring. I didnt know why I heard and saw those things, but I felt Id find out sothing if I went to the spring.
Mom didnt have plans to seal the springs. Before was just an ordinary door. I did hear there was a spell cast on it, though. Had nobody told , the spell wouldve shifted my focus away from the door. When I kept focussing, I could see the door.
The soldiers down imdiately surrounded when I descended. I vigilantly drew my handgun. I was aware that my handgun was useless, but it made my stance clear. The guards, who had surrounded, slowly backed away to allow passage to the path beyond them. I headed to the spring and never looked back at the soldiers.
The spring was the sa as before. The water was still flowing down with a cheerful rhythm. There was oxygen, flowers, birds, bugs and grass down there, but the place would never change, not even the sun. The spring continued to gurgle and flow outside, delivering the limitless power god-gifted power. It ran toward the elven forest and everything in the surroundings, thereby delivering life and beauty to all living things in the land. The place, the spring was the source of everything.
What good was the spring water to humans? What purpose would it serve them? The crops at Troy City couldnt grow, so how did it make changes to humans? Elven mana should be useless to humans as humans werent magical creatures. Subsequently, the question was: would it affect humanitys structures? I, personally, didnt think so; otherwise, my factory couldnt have been built next to the river. So what exactly was their so-called spring water?
Touch
Hmm? I looked around but didnt see anyone. There was grass, shrubs, but there wasnt even a breeze. I pondered, Was that voice I heard just my imagination?
Touch
I heard the voice again. I stood up. I tensely scanned my surroundings. Again, there was nobody in sight. I was absolutely certain that the voice was real.
I contemplate, Wheres that voice coming from? Wait. Could could the the voice be
I looked at the flowing spring. The water continued to cheerfully flow; but nonetheless, it was as though a pair of eyes was intently looking back at .
Touch
I crouched down and carefully reached my hand toward the spring
