Chapter 30 - The Ark Of Triplet Holder

"There, there. Don't have to cry..." cooed Minwoo, carefully snuggling the girl.

Baldwin and Gillian looked at each other in astonishment. How on earth did Minwoo manage to soothe the crying Valkyrie so easily? Just days before, they were both fighting tooth and nail about food, with Minwoo getting bitten mostly. So how were they getting along so well?

"Time for your nap," said Minwoo, promptly bringing her back to her room.

The fact that the Valkyrie allowed Minwoo to carry from the table to her room baffled the Mages, excluding the fallen Time Mage. She did not bite him but merely stifled a sob and closed her eyes.

"He played with Mavislin last night. It ended with no one getting bitten or crying," explained Ysaabeau, getting up to do the dishes.

Gillian shrugged his shoulders while Baldwin shook his head. The Angry Man with a loud huff picked up the scrawny boy and tossed him over his shoulder.

"Come on, let's get this boy a bed to sleep on," said Baldwin, heading upstairs.

"I'll make him a room," replied Gillian, following the Angry Man.

As the two head up, Gillian stopped at an open space, located right beside Mavislin's room.

Currently, when they headed up the spiral staircase, it would lead to a hallway, with a huge window at the end of it. On the left and right sides of the hallway has space for three rooms on each side. Facing the large window from the staircase, on the right side would be Baldwin's room.

After that room would be a space. followed by Ysabeau and Gillian's room. Opposite of the couple's room would be Mavislin's room. The rest of the left side is left empty. Until now.

Gillian placed his hand at the empty place beside Mavislin's room. He then muttered a few words and out came a blue and green door. As the duo opened the door, the room started to blossom.

Its ceiling was azure while the walls were lime. It was sparse, having only a desk and chair with a cabinet. A bed with a white blanket appeared, allowing Baldwin to place Raiyen down.

"I apologize for having to undergo that. She's just a kid after all. Humans are very different from Valkyries," explained Gillian, sitting on a chair beside the awoken boy.

"I'm no typical human either," replied the Time Mage, steadying himself up.

He looked around the room in wonder. The room, it felt odd. It did not strike him as one of the owners' rooms. It felt like it was his room.

"Yea, but your body is withal of a human. Mavislin possesses the body of a Valkyrie. Her body is way stronger than any of us. They were probably fed with blood instead of milk as an infant."

"Oh please, they are not that terrifying. Their bodies are sturdier, but they don't consume blood as infants..." murmured Baldwin.

"From what I've known, Valkyries are just gentle giants. They are made out of Light, the Element for Healing. Sure, some of their spells can rival the stars but they are just harmless," explained Baldwin, sitting down beside the Time Mage.

"Compared to others, the Valkyries are more understanding. Besides, Vakis, Valkyrie babies, are known to eat meat right after birth," added Baldwin.

"Were you part of the Congregation?" asked Gillian, out of curiosity.

"I got kicked out from Time but I managed to enter last year's tryouts. They sent me to the Teuton Domain but got rid of me when they found out that Headquarters had fallen," replied Raiyen.

"Earlier, you mentioned about having other Elements as well. Was that the cause of the dual colors in your Aura from earlier?" asked Baldwin, tilting his head to the side.

The Time Boy nodded slowly. His left and right hands then lit up in his Aura's colors. The duo gazed at his hands in wonder. Compared to Mavislin, this boy was certainly talented. Mavislin knew how to wield the Core Elements but could never properly balanced as evenly as this boy could.

"It's not the Earth Element, it's called Nature. I utilize that to be smooth with my movements, no matter where I am. Whenever I'm forced to be underwater, I would be suited to manipulate my surroundings to my advantage," explained Raiyen.

"Accordingly, are you capable of producing a tree?" asked Gillian.

Baldwin stifled a laugh, in which he failed miserably. The poor guy looked confused as Raiyen shook his head in misery.

"Not all users of Nature Magic must produce a tree be that Element Holder. I use Nature Element to notice my surroundings and adapt it to my will to carry out my daily tasks. In a way, I can utilize all Elements as well. But only in strict conditions," explained Raiyen, rolling his eyes.
