Once Ainsley saw the box, she was instantly curious. The baby eyed the box with sparkling eyes as she circled Finnie.
"What is this? It's so big..."
"Well, you have to open the box to take a look!"
Finnie urged Ainsley to open the box, really wanting to see the baby's reaction when seeing the gift.
After all, he used his connections with the fairies to get this item...it's so hard to collect!
Ainsley nodded at Finley's words and slowly opened the box's lid...and the first thing she saw was two rows of palm-sized transparent jars.
But the jars were all shining, sparkly, and beautiful.
There were various colors inside the jar, but because it was too sparkly, Ainsley almost couldn't see what was inside the jar.
"This...?"
"Take one jar and look at it." Finnie guided Ainsley to take one bottle and put it on her palm.
When Ainsley took a closer look at the jar, she finally saw tons of floating sparkles inside the jar.
It was so small that it almost looked like dust...
Wait, dust?
Dust that could float freely like this, colorful and could sparkle or shine brightly....
"Is this fairy dust??" Ainsley almost couldn't control her voice volume.
A fairy dust, ah. That's the sparkles that fairies drop from their wings whenever they fly.
But fairy dust would always disappear in the air in just a few seconds after it appeared.
Thus, almost no one could collect fairy dust unless they had a contract with a fairy.
The fairy dust was really magical. It could allow a person with no wings to fly as if they had wings.
They could also summon any fairies they wanted, as long as the fairy dust belonged to the fairy that they wanted to summon.
The one owning fairy dust only had to sprinkle the dust onto their palm, creating a tiny circle and then call out the fairy's name.
The dust was usually used by those who had a contract with their fairies to summon their fairies in emergencies.
After all, the fairies were free creatures and they often left their partners from day to day.
Thus, in emergencies, the fairy's partner could summon the fairy to their side even without teleportation, all thanks to the fairy dust.
Owning fairy dust was equal to holding a chance to summon fairies.
Of course, the fairies had to be willing to be summoned and come to the summoner's place.
Else, the fairy wouldn't appear, and the fairy dust would disappear in the air– wasted just like that.
Usually, it was hard to collect fairy dust without special jars as the one Finnie gave to Ainsley.
With the special jar, the fairy dust wouldn't disappear and could be used anytime, anywhere.
It's just that the moment it came out of the jar, Ainsley had to use it before it disappeared.
Now, now, what Finley got for Ainsley wasn't just mere fairy dust.
The fairy dust he collected was all fairy dust belonging to royal fairies!
There were twelve jars, and it should be half the number of the royal fairies that Finnie knew.
Finnie also gave a label to each jar, allowing Ainsley to know which fairy dust this one belonged to.
After checking the twelve jars, Ainsley was silent before she looked at Finnie with a strange gaze.
"Say, Finnie. How come there isn't any library fairy's fairy dust? Where's your fairy dust?"
It's weird for Finnie to give out the fairy of time and fairy of space's fairy dust, but not his own fairy dust!
Finnie instantly got a heart attack and almost fainted.
Oh my God! Of course, he didn't send the library fairy's fairy dust because that would call the real library fairy and not him.
Wouldn't he expose his own lie, then?
But he didn't know how to explain to Ainsley about why he didn't give his own fairy dust to Ainsley.
...it was simply because it didn't exist at all!
Finley was already sweating bullets while Zev and the Godfather floated over Finley's misery.
[Heh. Who told him to deceive my good host. Hmph!]
[Right. Maybe he wants to chase after Lil Lass and use this trickery to get her favor. But one day, there will be a backlash.]
Finley had thought of this scene when he didn't give Ainsley his fairy dust. But when it really happened, he didn't know how to face it.
"That...if I send you my fairy dust and then you summon me...the elders at the fairy world would notice something amiss, and then I might implicate you."
After all, Finnie was 'grounded at home.
"Besides, even if you use my fairy dust, I won't be able to answer your summon...because I'm still locked at home."
Oh, Finnie, that's a good answer!
Even Finley himself was suddenly proud of his brilliant mind.
Maybe he's born to be a liar...
Ainsley believed Finley's explanation because it was just too logical.
"Okay, I get it. It's just a pity...I want to know the color of your fairy dust..."
There were a lot of fairies and a lot of fairy dust types, but none of them would have the exact same color.
Even if both fairy dust were yellow, it would be a different shade of yellow.
Plus, the higher the level of the fairies, the more color combination there would be in their fairy dust.
The twelve fairy dust Ainsley had, each of them got three or four color combinations, creating beautiful and complex fairy dust.
It wasn't single-coloured fairy dust, unlike the commoner fairies.
Ainsley really wanted to know the color of Finnie's fairy dust, so she acted on an impulse.
"Then, after you're free, can you give me your fairy dust?"
Impending doom, everybody!
