Ruby and the other Fairies from the Garden tagged along with Ethan, Luna, and Lilian to the lake area to meet the Water Fairies and the High Pixie, Nika.
Aria was also very happy to see her friends again because she was overwhelmed with everything in Brynhildr Academy.
Most of the time, she just hid inside the pocket of Lilian's robe because she didn't want to talk with anyone, so this was her first time seeing so many humans.
But, because Lilian liked to talk to people, Aria was gradually getting used to their presence. However, she still refused to talk to others, unless she was with Ethan or his lovers.
Ruby and Nika hit it off right away. After a while, the other Fairies noticed that the Water Fairies had two bags of candies each, so the former surrounded Ethan and demanded more.
Fortunately, Ethan expected this to happen and had come prepared.
He wasn't allowed to leave the academy, so he had asked Dantalion to go to the Candy Shop he regularly visited to order candies in bulk and have it delivered to the academy.
That way, he would have plenty of treats to give to the Fairies, who had become extremely friendly with Ethan and were now calling him Your Highness.
Even Ruby and the other Fairies in the Garden referred to Ethan as their "Sugar Daddy Prince," making Lilian giggle from time to time.
While the Fairies were happily chatting with each other, Ethan spread out the picnic blanket that he brought so that they could sit down and relax properly.
There were still three hours before sunset, so they had plenty of time to spare.
But aside from letting Ruby and Nika meet, there was an experiment that Ethan planned to conduct in a place where only those who were close to him could see.
"Lilian, I'll need your help," Ethan said. "I want to do an experiment using Queen Celestia's Domain."
"What should I do?" Lilian asked.
"Kiss me."
"Gladly."
The young lady cupped Ethan's face and kissed him twice before letting him go.
Naturally, Ethan also kissed Luna despite the fact that she didn't possess any magic power, which the latter appreciated very much. S~eaʀᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
When he was ready, Ethan sat cross-legged and pressed his palms together to invoke the Water Fairy Queen's Domain.
"Celestial Aria."
A ripple spread across the surroundings with Ethan at its center.
Soon, Lilian, Luna, and the Fairies found themselves inside Ethan's Celestial Domain.
The three teenagers sat at the center of the lake. Intrigued, Lilian and Luna looked all around them.
This was their first time seeing a Domain, and they were very curious about the manifestation of the Fairy Queen's power.
But it didn't take long for them to realize that the Domain looked very plain.
Aside from the lake and the night sky above them, the only thing of interest was the constellation of Hydra hovering above their heads. It was radiating a presence that was very hard to ignore.
This wasn't the first time that Ethan had summoned this Domain. However, even now, he still didn't understand what kind of power or advantage he could wield inside it.
The Tide Bringer's Domain was quite easy to understand.
The moment Ethan activated the Domain, he and his targets would find themselves in the sea. After that, Ethan could manipulate the weather and create a storm, overwhelming his opponent with the power of Sea, Thunder, and Lightning.
But the Celestial Domain didn't have any of that.
No matter what Ethan tried to do, nothing happened. Even the lake, which was filled with water, didn't answer his command whenever he tried to manipulate it, which surprised him completely.
He was hoping that Luna, Lilian, and the Fairies would be able to help him better understand what his Domain was capable of.
"Wow!" Nika spun in the air. "This presence reminds me of Queen Celestia. It feels like she's here somewhere, hiding in plain sight."
The other Water Fairies nodded their heads in agreement because this was what they were feeling as well.
As for Ruby and the others, they felt that they were in a place that belonged to the Fairies, making them feel happy as well.
Aria, who was seated on Lilian's shoulder, looked at Ethan as if she wanted to say something.
But since she was shy by nature, she found it hard to voice her opinion most of the time.
Fortunately, Lilian noticed her Familiar's feelings, so she encouraged her to say what she had in mind.
"This is just a guess, Your Highness," Aria said softly. "But this Domain might be a Creation Type Domain."
"A Creation Type Domain?" Ethan tilted his head in confusion. "What do you mean?"
Aria, who suddenly felt countless eyes looking in her direction, felt anxious and hid behind Lilian's neck, using her hair as a blanket to cover herself.
"It's okay, Aria," Lilian said. "Take your time and share what's in your mind when you have regained your calm."
Ethan and the other Fairies didn't pressure the little Fairy and simply waited for her to share what she was thinking.
Fortunately, it only took Aria two minutes to calm down once more and gather her courage to say what was on her mind.
"Creation Type Domains allow their wielders to create things," Aria explained. "For example, we who belonged in our Queen's Domain, were born from the power of her Legacy.
"While not all Creation Type Domains are equal, most of them exist using the same set of rules. The simplest form of ability that you can do is to bestow the power of Fairies on the people inside of your domain.
"Also, I am not certain with this either, but I believe that you are also capable of creating Fairies, while you are inside this Domain. Lastly… that thing in the sky… you can manifest it as well."
Aria pointed at the Hydra Constellation, making Ethan frown.
"Creation…" Ethan felt that he had finally grasped something, but it was a very fleeting thing.
Like a word that was at the tip of your tongue. Unable to remember what it was, it played at the edge of Ethan's consciousness.
It wasn't running away, but it also made sure that it was outside his reach, as if teasing Ethan to try harder to catch it.
'For the time being, maybe I should try that first,' Ethan thought as he looked at Luna and Lilian. 'I think it's worth a try.'
Magic was the power of imagination.
As long as he could imagine it, he would be able to manifest it.
Ethan then imagined the thing he wanted to happen before snapping his fingers.
A moment later, Luna and Lilian suddenly grew a pair of Fairy Wings on their back, making them look like Fairy Princesses.
Perhaps feeling a little bold, Lilian tried to flap the wings on her back, making her body hover on the ground.
"Wow!" Lilian exclaimed. "It really feels like the wings are part of my body."
The young lady then flew high in the sky and circled around Ethan, with Aria flying beside her with a smile on her face.
Luna, who was also used to flying in the sky, flapped her wings and joined Lilian in flight.
She then waved her hand and tried to create something, just like she normally did with her Moon Magic.
And to her and everyone else's surprise, the Water Dragon she imagined manifested.
Ethan tried to summon a Water Dragon as well, but nothing happened.
Lilian, who suddenly felt competitive, summoned a Pegasus, which she rode around the Domain.
Ethan suddenly remembered what Aria had told him earlier about them being born inside Queen Celestia's Domain.
Although he believed that it wasn't possible, he thought that it wouldn't hurt to give it a try.
Picturing an image inside his mind, the water in front of him rippled, and a beautiful white lotus appeared in front of him.
A moment later, the flower bloomed, and at its center, laying in the fetal position was a Water Fairy, whose eyes slowly opened to look at the face of her creator.
