plants to sleep again.

Anyway, Arianne is Arianne.

“I told you to go to sleep.”

After finishing my conversation with Calian, I was about to go to bed when Arianne came to see me. So, we heard the story on our way out together to the terrace provided on the highest floor of the cabin. It is said that he put the crown prince of a neighboring country, who suffered from severe motion sickness, to sleep.

After hearing his fiancée’s confident confession, Chase raised his hand and covered his face. Soon a soft laugh came out of the long-fingered bird.

“Ah... really. Arianne.”

“He was so seasick that his face turned white and stubborn was like a whale. The reason he said he didn’t want to sleep was because he and I had the medicine you gave him. That’s why I gave it to him.”

Arianne did not know the inner thoughts of the Crown Prince, who was approaching the end of a very sensitive period. If I had known that I had been sleeping for a long time and was afraid of not seeing the whale even if it appeared, I probably wouldn’t have given him tea with such an extreme prescription.

“Now that I think about it, it’s good that your highness is sleeping better than before. Thanks to you, I have some medicine left over.”

“If you use sleeping pills on someone other than me, you’ll be in big trouble. Don’t do that again, Arianne.”

“I won’t do it anymore. But anyway, he will never drink the tea I give him from now on.”

“I’ll probably drink it again if you give it to me again.”

If you don’t suspect anyone around you, isn’t he a Plants equivalent to Calian? Therefore, Chase, who answered with a smile on his face, straightened Arianne’s bangs that had become disheveled in the wind blowing against her. It was a habit I developed because I spent a lot of time with my mother, Louise.

As Chase was taking care of Arianne, her hair was also fluttering here and there, so Arianne, who let Chase’s hand touch it, held out something.

“Your Highness, tie your hair too. You’re crazy.”

My hair, which had been short since I went to Kairis last year, has grown back a lot. It has grown to the point where it can be left loose or tied loosely. Not because of her memories of Verne, but because Arianne really liked Chase’s long hair, so she was growing it back.

However, because what was handed over was a bright red lace string that would go well with Arianne’s hair, Chase burst out laughing again when he saw the shape of the string on his palm. Arianne asked, pretending not to know the reason.

“If you forgot how to tie your hair, should I do it for you?”

“Okay. That’s good.”

I didn’t forget it though.

I like the black night sea, the gentle wind, and the rustling of your hands.

I sat with my back to Arianne and slightly closed my eyes.

“majesty.”

“huh.”

I immediately responded to the voice ringing behind me, but no words came back.

Even though there were no tangles in her hair, Arianne just kept combing it out with her fingers. Instead of calming down, Chase quietly waited for Arianne to speak.

“I have a lot to do and a lot of things I want to do.”

Arianne, who had been smoothing her silver-blue hair for some time, opened her mouth like this.

“I’m going to see lemons growing on the lemon tree I planted at home, and I’m going to raise a lot of fish in the new pond I made. I’m going to learn more about what my mom does, drink more, have more fun, and show up in front of people more.”

“huh.”

“So wait. Don’t have a civil wedding.”

“huh.”

“Do it with me later.”

“okay.”

Chase turned and looked at Arianne.

The beautifully knotted red ribbon is a little crooked.

“I will. Arianne.”

Arianne, who always heard the answer like a calm wave, laughed. The wind had died down before I knew it, but I nodded without knowing it.

“huh.”

The wind that had been blowing stopped, as if time had stopped.

The calm waves no longer rise.

In the middle of the vast sea, silence comes.

As if time had stopped.

It was said that they looked different from Sispanians.

Brilliant scales that look like a mixture of finely ground sapphire and black pearl. A trunk several times thicker and longer than that of an oak tree that has lived for well over a thousand years. A pair of black, pearl-colored wings made of a thin film that makes you worry that they will melt in the sun and be torn apart by the wind. Sharp and huge claws that look like they can cut into pieces the largest sailing ship on the continent in an instant.

That was the sea dragon Arnaizel described in the book.

They looked different from the Sispanians who protected the continent and the golden young dragons Silestians who made their home in the Great Desert. Rather than the well-known dragon, it was said to resemble a blue snake with bat wings.

– I guess you can pretend you saw a whale.

Should I call it familiar or unfamiliar?

I have seen it many times in books and even in the fountain in the city of the elves. Another species that I have never encountered in person, with its entire lower body covered in scales and a huge fin split in two.

“...... fish.”

“no!”

“Big fish.”

“No!”

It was a mermaid.

Perhaps because he thought it would be difficult to talk to Calian due to his huge size, Arnaizel took on an unfamiliar appearance that he had only heard about, and voiced his frustration. Forgetting how fast he was swimming around Calian, he finally stopped and looked at Calian. As if confirming that it is not a fish.

okay. If you’re going to talk, you have to face each other.

Only then did Calian, who was ready to talk, smile brightly.

“Stop playing around and explain. Why I called you.”

A boy younger than the child named Riri that we met at Evan’s mansion. No mermaid. no. Sea dragon. Arnaizel waved his tail fin once. And then I swam to a place far away from Kalian.

“I waited for Cispanian, but Cispanian didn’t come. But you smelled like Cispanian. That’s why I called you.”

“If you’re a Sispanian...”

You came to Brigitte’s Forest just a few months ago.

Calian, who was about to say that, closed his mouth.

Arnaizel called Calian because he smelled like a Cispanian. However, the most recent person I met with Sispanian was Allen, not Calian. He came to see me because he almost destroyed the roots of the Mother Tree while dealing with a 7th Circle mage named Adelia. So, I should have called Allen instead of Calian. That’s it.

But Arneizel didn’t call Allan. She didn’t call Plantz, who had met Sispanian’s will among Rosellita. She called Calian, the only

person who had met Sispanian’s true body. She didn’t feel Sispanian’s will coming. It meant that he couldn’t do it. There was no reason to mention that Sispanian came to him without revealing his presence.

“Why did Sispanian wait?”

“To the sea. Something strange fell. What Sispanian is looking for.”

Calian’s eyes narrowed.

“The axis of time.”

Arnaizel’s eyes turned round.

“That’s right.”

As he nodded his head up and down, the sea water that was pushed out was filled with Calian’s air bubbles. He touched it lightly. Is it pure or just because it smells like Cispanian? There was no sign of doubting how Calian knew it. “Where is it?” “I have it.” At that moment, Calian just

said

it

. I almost told him to hand it over to me. I knew where Sispanian kept the axis of time, so I would keep it for him. Anyway, I was the one who would use it someday. I almost said that. I didn’t say that. No, I didn’t

. I couldn’t do it. It’s because my voice didn’t come out.

Arneizel, who saw Calian’s mouth covered, let out a laugh. I don’t know what was so funny, but I laughed so hard that the air bubbles buzzed. “I see you were the child Danu met

. I heard there was a child who was touched by Serenti’s hand.”

If that hand had really touched him, he would have torn the hairs off his hands.

Calian, who was struggling to swallow words that a person who was a member of the royal family of Secretia could not say, nodded.

“Sith . “Can you call Panian?”

“It’s possible. “Maybe.”

If you look for Sispanian in the stone room of the royal palace, he will come. Probably.

“Then tell me. Sispanian’s things are here.”

My thoughts stopped.

Calian’s calm face suddenly hardened. It took quite a while for me to understand what I heard. A cool

voice flowed from Calian’s mouth.

“..... . What are you talking about. “That’s it,”

said Arnaizel, who was looking at Calian with black pearl eyes.

“I was worried that your companions would be surprised when you disappeared, so I borrowed the power of the fragment for a moment. Who did you think was the first to create such an amazing thing?”

Bridget The power of Sispanian, who was said to have restored the ruins of the forest. Arnaizel, who is said to possess the axis of time, has stopped the flow of time. Suddenly, the first time I met

Sispanian It came to mind.

I remembered the expression Sispanian made when he mentioned the axis of time.

“That’s why you treat me like that.”

That’s why he took care of me like that.

Now I understood.

He was the one who went against time because of the thing he made. I think it was because of the deep guilt of the thoughtful ancient dragon I met.
