Today's weather: Clear
Astrological report: No rain expected within the next day
Yvonne took a deep breath after retrieving the package,
Finally...
Finally, this day has co—
She carefully opened the parcel,
Inside this ribbon-decorated jewelry box lay a ring, quietly resting.
When opening the box, Yvonne couldn't help but hold her breath, fearing that her exhalation might blow dust inside, ruining its flawlessness.
Apart from the word 'perfect', she couldn't think of any other adjective to describe this ring.
However, before she could admire it for a mont, this tranquility was broken.
"—Young Lady!"
Parcy hurriedly pushed open her door.
This sudden loud voice startled Yvonne, who quickly hid the ring behind her back,
"I've encountered sothing strange! Why is your schedule for today completely blank?"
As usual, she had checked and arranged her mistress's daily schedule in the morning, but found that there wasn't a single task to be handled today.
"How many tis have I told you not to be so startled... And it's early in the morning, lower your voice."
"I'm sorry..."
Realizing her rudeness, Parcy quickly covered her mouth,
"There's no problem with the schedule, I deliberately left today open."
"Alright, I understand..."
Although Parcy was puzzled, just a few days ago she had been pushed to the limit, ti compressed to the extre, leaving barely enough ti to eat and drink. But today was suddenly so relaxed... It really wasn't like the Young Lady's style,
Could there be sothing particularly important yet unwritable on the schedule today?
"Young Lady, are you planning to go out?"
Seeing Yvonne dressed and ready to leave, Parcy asked after performing a maid's curtsy,
"Yes, I won't be having breakfast at the mansion... Oh right, please take care of Bebe today and take her to play at Chieftain Kukur's place... I have to go out for a while."
"Understood, I'll take care of Miss Bebe! Have a safe trip, Mistress—"
With that settled, next—
Yvonne pushed open the bedroom door,
"Return to Erald Port? Why so suddenly..."
Woken up early by an inexplicably excited Yvonne, Elsa blinked her confused and sleepy eyes, letting out a big yawn,
"Even if we're going back, it's too early now, can't I sleep a bit longer..."
She tried to fall back onto the pillow, but was pulled by Yvonne.
"No more sleeping in, look at the ti, get up quickly!"
"Just a little more... ow"
"If you don't get up, I'll help you change clothes?"
Yvonne wiggled her fingers, indicating she might use so forceful thods to get her out of bed.
"Hehe, if you do that, I might start sleeping in every day?"
Her face clearly said 'Is there such a good thing?', as she hugged Yvonne's arm and lay back down in a comfortable position.
This girl...
Yvonne was quite troubled,
It seems being undressed by her wasn't a punishnt at all for Elsa, but rather a form of play.
She began to reflect, wondering if she had spoiled her too much before.
"Besides... Evie, I think it's better for you to stay at ho today."
"Why?"
"Doesn't 'Silver Eye' magazine have a column that calculates fortune based on birthdays and zodiac signs? I calculated for you, and today you'll be quite unlucky... You might need 10 bad things to happen before you get one piece of good luck."
"Hmph, 10% good luck... Is my luck a precipitation probability? I don't believe in such superstitions."
Yvonne snorted at this,
"I think it's quite accurate, everyone says it's accurate!"
"That's just survivor bias! Only people who find it accurate would eagerly give feedback and submit entries, right?"
"But..."
"No buts, get up quickly, we have a lot to do today!"
Elsa wanted to say more but couldn't resist Yvonne's insistence, finally leaving the warm bed with tears in her eyes.
In this world with magic, divination results should still be believed to so extent.

Originally wanting to try the teleportation gate, they unexpectedly encountered the monthly maintenance day for the transfer network points, so they had to choose to use the Silver Shoes for teleportation.
Actually, Yvonne didn't really want her to use this tool, as continuous use was quite taxing on her body, and not everyone could withstand it.
"If you feel unwell at all, you must tell
imdiately!"
"Just occasional teleportation like this is fine..."
Elsa felt sowhat helpless, Evie was always like this, worrying too much about her.
"But... This place has changed a lot too."
This quiet seaside town had changed considerably,
Compared to when they left, there were many more buildings with a magical industrial style, and the shops on the comrcial street had beco more nurous.
Due to the convenience of the teleportation gates, many scenic cities began vigorously developing tourism based on their religious culture and historical stories. Places with beautiful scenery like Erald Port were very popular among various backpackers.
"We've reached Fish Tail Street, can I go say hello to the owner of 'Sea Breeze Pavilion'?"
"Mm, go ahead."
While Elsa went to greet them, Yvonne had to prepare well herself.
She went to a dark alley on Fish Tail Street.
A month ago, Yvonne had arranged for the 'Phantom Light Magic Band' to set the mood, truly making thorough preparations for this outing.
Speaking of the Phantom Light Magic Band, they were a popular performance group known to everyone in Oz Kingdom. Their performance style combining magic and band music was eye-opening. With them present, it was equivalent to having lighting and BGM.
Yvonne had already planned that at the right mont, she would give these people a signal, and that would be their cue to appear.
However, upon reaching the eting point, only a small rabbit-eared girl holding a mandolin timidly stood before her, greatly disappointing Yvonne:
"Wait? Why can't the other mbers co?"
"I'm sorry, employer... The band leader's wife is having a divorce dispute with him, so he couldn't co..."
This rabbit-eared girl who called herself Mimi seed to be a new mber,
At least she wasn't there when Yvonne signed the contract with that group last ti.
"Then why are you the only one here? Where are the others?"
Yvonne rembered the band leader was a kind-looking chubby man who played the drums. Even if the drumr wasn't there, if the others were present, they might still manage
"The bassist Vic broke up with his girlfriend of 7 years and said he couldn't bear to see a proposal scene..."
"Then what about the keyboardist... no, the pianist?"
"It was the pianist who stole Vic's girlfriend, and got his bones broken by him..."
After hearing this information, Yvonne held her forehead in distress,
...It seems the internal relationships in this band are quite complicated?
"Um... Employer!" Seeing the employer's disappointed expression, Mimi felt quite guilty. She raised her beloved mandolin, actively seeking ways to redy the situation.
"If you don't mind! I can do it alone!! I'll try my best to heat up the atmosphere!!"
This small rabbit-eared girl was the band's new guitarist and lead singer. She didn't look very reliable, and Yvonne didn't know how skilled she actually was.
However, her willingness sowhat comforted Yvonne,
"What type of songs are you good at?"
"How about you listen to this!"
Saying this, she set up the mandolin strapped to her body, and after a professional strum, began to sing
Yvonne listened to Mimi sing a song on the spot and nearly cried.
The destructive power was no less than "Mother in the Candlelight" and the folk song "Little Cabbage
