~~~(POV: Cera Adamo)~~~
~~~(Location: Capital City Ezhearts, The Fairy Kingdom)~~~
~~~(Time: 7:17 AM)~~~
My eyes flutter open as I wake up. Finding an Inn to sleep in last night was the best choice. I spent extra Gold for getting a room so late. The Innkeeper wasn't happy about someone coming in at midnight.
I'm kinda nervous about heading to Capital City Zenith. It's been a long time since I saw Amelia, and she doesn't even know I'm coming. That's probably for the best.
When I get there, I don't want to be met with swarms of nobles and people looking to meet me or talk to me. Just going to see Amelia and finding Kris Martim is the best step.
I lean up from my bed and stretch my body. I'm not going to waste any daylight, but skipping breakfast is a no-no. I heard the food is fantastic here in Ezhearts. Food that you can't eat anywhere else in all of Gaia.
I'd like to sample one of these rare and unique dishes. But none of the restaurants that serve anything are opened yet, so that means I'm leaving without something good to eat, which sucks, no doubt.
After making my way out of the Inn, the streets are quickly filling with people getting ready for their days. There are some Players scattered among the many fairy people. I waste no time and toggle my wings on.
People stop what they're doing and see me, and before anyone can do something. I launch off the ground and head for the clouds. Fairies can fly too, but not nearly as fast as me. I turn towards the direction of the marker heading for Capital City Zenith,
The solitude of the sky is a part of me now, and I don't think I can live a full life without it. I'm exaggerating, but when you're able to fly. It's not something you'll give up lightly.
"Players will never be able to fly as freely as I can... Some will gain spells that allow them to fly... But not soar through the clouds and feel free..."
Sally is also a big fan of my ability to fly, and while Hailey didn't like the trip over that large ocean. I'm betting she knows how good things for her would be if she could fly.
It'll be around 4 hours before I make it to my destination, and that means it's a trip I can make in a single day. And still, have the rest of the day to meet up with Amelia and search for Kris Martim before the day is over.
I don't know if I'll be able to find Kris Martim today, but I'm hot on his trail, and it's only a matter of time until I meet the man that's tied to my tier-up quest. I still don't know with 100 percent certainty what Kris Martim is, but he's likely a God.
Or a direct servant of a God. I don't know which. And that's okay. It's true that I don't like not knowing things, but it's not the end of the world when I don't know something.
There are other things on my mind, and these 4 hours alone will give me time to think about them clearly.
~~~(POV: Amelia Zern)~~~
~~~(Location: Mansion near Capital City Zenith, The Kingdom of Zenith)~~~
~~~(Time: 9:40 AM)~~~
This morning has been nice and calm. There are no responsibilities today since it's a day off all over The Kingdom of Zenith. Meaning I can ignore the paperwork that's on my desk.
"Lady Zern, you've been invited to a party tonight that's being hosted by The King and Queen. It'd be rude to not attend. This isn't a regular meeting for the nobles after all."
All except for one thing. King Jackson and Queen Tessa have decided to host a party at the Palace tonight, and I'm not wanting to go. But my butler is making it a point to go...
"I know they're my friends, but I've been so busy lately that I'm just wanting to take a day and do nothing. Days off like this are rare!!"
I can't help sounding like I'm whining about things. But considering my life before becoming a noble, this is hardly a challenge. Besides, my kids are having too much fun today to have them settle down while I leave for a party.
They earned a break from behaving perfectly for today. Just like I've earned a break from being a noble. So I'm not going, I'm staying home, and there is nothing that anyone can do about it. Besides, what's with throwing a party on such short notice?
We have the noble meeting a couple of days, and they're doing this today. Sending out invites the day of! How come they get to inconvenience everyone, and I can't say no!
"I'm not going, today is a day off, and I'm going to enjoy it. No extravagant dresses, no timetables to keep track of. I'm sorry, but my answer is no, and I don't care what anyone thinks!"
He can't help but chuckle to himself. He fixes his glasses before leaving the room and me to my breakfast. I was even able to sleep in today. That's something that I never get to do, even when I was taking care of all my kids at the orphanage.
But since I have help in people by taking care of my kids, things have gotten easier. They've helped ease the pain I feel about not knowing where my son is. He hasn't contacted me at all, and I'd be lying if I said it didn't hurt.
I love my kids, but I care for my own child far more than them. It feels wrong to admit that, but it's the truth.
"I hope you're okay out there, my son... You're girlfriend better be taking care of you..."
I didn't kike the thought of my son traveling alone everywhere, but when he introduced me to Sally, things became easier to handle. Knowing he wouldn't be alone.
Another thing I've been worried about is Players. My son is one of them... Said to have come from a different world... I don't know why my son was taken from this world and placed in the other. Just to return here again, but I won't question things.
At least, that's what I hope has happened... Cause if not, then I can't explain who he is or if he's actually my son...
~~~(POV: Queen Tessa)~~~
~~~(Location: Royal Palace in Capital City Zenith, The Kingdom of Zenith)~~~
~~~(Time: 10:05 AM)~~~
"Lady Zern has decided not to come to today's party... I'm sorry, my Queen. She's insistent on resting today. If one of the rare chances she gets a day off from working on the new land."
I shouldn't be surprised. She's been so busy with everything that she'd take the day off and not go anywhere whatsoever. I'd do the same thing in her shoes.
"Thank you for informing of the noble's decisions on the parties. Everyone is coming except for Lady Zern. I was looking forward to talking with her, but that doesn't seem to be happening."
If she doesn't want to come, we can't force her. Not like we want to anyway.
"Don't worry. She'll come to one of the meetings or parties one of these days. She's got the most responsibility in the Kingdom right behind me."
Jackson isn't wrong. She's developing the land that we won in war, and that's taking a lot of work and dedication. Besides, it's not like the party will be any less fun without her there. She takes the attention on me when she is there, which I appreciate.
