While she and Leticia were walking, many people noticed their presence. Although they were curious about them, they only looked in the direction of the two. It was natural since even the clothes they wore were different from what they were used to.
Even the aura around them was different. Mostly Zaira, she had a noble aura, many felt like revering in her presence; especially the magical animals and those with animal traits.
Even though she had gotten used to it, Leticia was still surprised by their reaction. But she did not think it was in vain, for Zaira's noble and elegant aura was very strong. If she wasn't used to it, she herself would already be bowing at the stage of her aura.
Of course, Zaira was aware of this, she already knew more or less why this is happening. It all started when Theo went through the tribulation and she and the girls were surrounded by a strong light and something inside them changed.
At first, she thought that only her cultivation had increased, but in time she discovered that it wasn't as simple as she imagined...
After being silent for a while, Zaira suddenly closed her hands and gently closed her eyes. So she opened them. A faint glow shone in her eyes, uncertainty.
Her exceptionally calm voice came through: "I'm not sure what to do, but I promise to think about it. At that time, I realized it's no use running away from my own feelings, but I'm still not confident of chasing him anyway..."
Leticia: "But..."
Zaira interrupted: "Leticia... I don't want to be a dead weight for him. At the moment I have no use standing next to him. Although I know he doesn't care about those things, it still affects me..."
She took a deep breath and sighed, "But... yes, I'm not running anymore!" She gave her good friend a gentle smile: "I'll make an effort to be by his side; if I can... I'll confess all my love for him."
She shook her hands even harder, making her knuckles white. If you looked into her eyes, you could see that they had turned into two slits and shone with determination. She promised herself not to run away from her feelings anymore, at least she wanted to be able to hold her head high in the face of her love.
"Even if I can one day hold my head high next to him... it's not right to say, he'll match my feelings." Zaira already knew that he did not love her as she loved him, but even so, he always treated her very well. At least now she didn't want to give up before she even tried.
Leticia was also able to understand this, the two often talked about it when they were alone. But seeing that her friend was determined not to repress her feelings anymore made her happy.
It wasn't that she cared about being Zaira's fake girlfriend, it was that she had already realized how much her friend loved Theo and trying to hide her feelings would only make her sadder.
Leticia was happy to see Zaira's determined gaze, she hoped her friend would overcome her low self-esteem and not give up on her feelings. It was not right to give up before even trying, especially when the other party was someone so exceptional and worth all the efforts, she made for him.
"I'll always be by your side, rooting for you!" Said Leticia. A beautiful, gentle smile blossomed when she looked at Zaira.
Zaira was moved by Letícia's words, even if her relationship with her was false, she was happy to have spent all this time with her and that she could meet her and become good friends with Zaira. She kind of thinks it's funny how close they got.
They were initially only a little friendly to each other, but now the two have become true friends. Zaira could feel how sincere Leticia was when she spoke to her, just as she did with Leticia.

The Little Queen and her subjects. That was a good description to give Little Yui. She walked around town while a huge group of children faithfully followed her. Wearing a beautiful sky-blue dress, with her long hair tied in a beautiful princess braid, she looked very cute.
The sight of her and the children who followed her made everyone who saw her have a gentle smile on their faces.
"Attention! Sense!" Little Yui spoke in a cuddly, authoritative, shrill voice.
"Yes, General!" The children's voices resounded. Soon after, they all stopped walking while they held their hands behind their backs.
After watching a soldier's film, she was fascinated and wanted to imitate it. The children who heard her idea were more than willing to cooperate. It was fun for the children to pretend to be soldiers while Little Yui played the general.
But the truth be told; she looked more like a beautiful, cute princess. Even more so with his gorgeous face with a serious look, wanting to look like someone with the authority of a general.
"Princess Yui is so beautiful..."
"So cute..."
"She's gorgeous...!"
A lot of kids started whispering. But when Little Yui's eyes landed on them, they went silent. After all, she had a high cultivation level and an extraordinarily noble aura around her. Making her look different from other people, giving her an air of nobility and making others fascinated by her charms.
Seeing that they were all looking serious now, Little Yui nodded in satisfaction. She smiled beautifully without realizing it, stunning the poor hearts of those who saw it.
Sighs of admiration were locked on this little girl. She was already known all over the city and they knew she was the daughter of the city owner. Little Yui showed no arrogance, she treated everyone kindly.
That earned Little Yui a lot of admiration from everyone. The children that were following her were also the same. Because of her personality, they were willing to follow her and always be motivated when interacting with her.
