-Inside Bastian's Ship-
In Leona's room, Desmond was seen on Leona's lap, having breast milk. She smiled at her son, "Ah, my baby," and said while touching Desmond's cheek, "you are so cute."
"Whose son is this so handsome? That's my…."
Hold it… hold...
"Baby," she said while kissing Desmond on the cheek.
This is so embarrassing.
Desmond, who was on her lap, suddenly heard a noise from outside the room. Desmond saw his mother's expression change from a smile to a frown. His mother then clapped her hands, and immediately, a female servant entered.
"Why is it so noisy outside? Can't you see it's still early morning, and I'm breastfeeding?" Leona said, looking at the servant with narrowed eyes.
"Sorry, my lady, but…."
Before the servant could finish, Desmond heard loud footsteps and saw his father enter the room.
Bastian immediately turned to his wife. Smiling, he said, "Unfortunately, we have a guest. It looks like a messenger from the Grandmaster because they come with many guards." Bastian then looked at the maid and motioned for her to leave.
When Leona heard this, her expression became ugly. She took a breath and then began to smile and spoke, "So it's from the Grandmaster. Honey, you go and greet them first, I'll catch up when I finish breastfeeding Desmond."
"Yes, honey," Bastian answered directly and walked out of the room.
A few minutes later, Desmond saw his mother stand up and put him on the bed.
"Wait a minute, my baby, mother, has to do something first," Leona said in a loving tone with a smile.
Desmond saw his mother standing by the window and looked outside. Afterwards, her mouth began moving and an heavy pressure formed around his body.
She spoke an mysterious langunge in fast before suddenly stopped and a light suddenly covered Desmond's vision.
As soon his vision back to normal, Desmond saw that her face, which was previously energized, had now become a little pale.

Desmond saw his mother come to him, and she said, "Now it's safe, my baby, let's continue."

-North Empire Harbour-
This morning should be busy because many goods were ready to be delivered or sent, and many people had opened their shops to make transactions. But strangely, the people at the port were all gathered by one ship. They noticed a woman who was guarded by many royal guards. It could be seen that the woman was waiting for someone in front of the ship.
"Eh, isn't that Master Wizard Noel?" whispered one of the people in the crowd.
"Yeah, that's right. It's unusual. What is she doing so early at the port?" asked another person in the crowd.
"Could it be that someone caused trouble with her?"
"She indeed causes a lot of trouble, but people will accept it and never fight back."
"Who would dare to beat a Grandmaster's student."
"Yeah, that's right, but yesterday I heard from the guards who were patrolling around the church that they received a report that said there was an assassin attacking near the church.
"The guard said that the person who was attacked suddenly disappeared and came back injured."
"Is that true?"
"Yes, if I'm not mistaken, the ones who were attacked were the newcomers who arrived here yesterday."
"That is why Master Wizard Noel must have come to investigate this matter."
While the crowd continued to discuss, the woman called Master Wizard Noel waited with an irritated expression on her face in front of the ship.
"Oh god, I've been waiting for a few minutes. Why haven't they come yet?" Noel said in a high tone while stamping her feet on the ground several times.
A few minutes later, an adult man was seen coming out of one of the ship's rooms and disembarking while looking at the crowd.

After Bastian left Leona's room, he headed straight to the stairs going to the ship's deck. He saw many people crowding around his ship—the crowd pointing their hands in one direction.
There, he saw the figure of a young woman with a lot of royal guards behind her. The young woman's age was around 22 years old, with yellow hair in pony style, reaching 160cm in height. Bastian's first impression was that there was no way a woman like this could become a Grandmaster's subordinate.
To make sure, Bastian approached and asked the person behind the woman, "Hello, are you guys here by orders of the Grandmaster?" Bastian asked in a polite tone, ignoring the look of the woman behind him.
The soldier did not answer but gave a signal by tilting his head towards the back of Bastian. Bastian, who saw this, understood and immediately turned around.
When he turned around, he saw the young woman's angry face while a fire flower was floating around her body. When he saw this, Bastian immediately lowered his head and spoke, "Sorry for my manners, I did not recognize you."
"Hump," the woman who wanted to burn Bastian alive canceled her spell. She remembered her teacher's warning about not causing a problem with this newcomer.
"I apologize for the previous incident. May I ask you a question? Are you the messenger sent by the Grandmaster?" Bastian asked with a polite tone while pressing his palms together.
The woman calmed down her anger and replied in a polite tone, "Yes, we were ordered by the Master to escort you to the inner city."
Hmm? Master?
Bastian felt strange on hearing this and asked, "Pardon me, is the person you are calling 'Master' Grandmaster Weston?"
"That's right, Grandmaster Weston is my teacher," answered the woman proudly.
"Oh, so be…."
Before Bastian could finish his words, the woman interrupted and said, "Let's stop these pleasantries and call your family to start preparing."
"Ah, please wait a little longer because my wife has just started breastfeeding my child.
"Let's wait in the living room of my ship." Bastian could see the woman biting her lips while she frowned.
Bastian and the woman and her guards boarded the ship. Bastian saw the woman instruct the guards, and then he saw only four guards boarding his ship while the rest were guarding the port.
Bastian then directed the woman and her guards to the room. Only Bastian, the woman, and two guards entered while the rest stood guard outside the door.
-In the Living Room -
This room was quite large; it was shaped like a square, with a long transparent glass window that fitted the wall, allowing direct sunlight to enter. There were a large dining table and ten chairs with a huge carpet located under the dining table in the middle of the room. In every corner of the room were ornamental plants as high as 100cm. Combined with the chandelier hanging on the top of the dining table, this room looked very comfortable and beautiful. The woman walked in and looked at the living room for a moment in awe.
"Please treat it like your own home," Bastian said as he clapped his hands together to awaken the woman as well as calling the servant.
"Prepare drinks and food for our guests."
"Yes, Master," the servant answered while calling another servant to help him.
Bastian and the woman sat opposite each other while the two guards stood behind the woman.
"Ah, sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Bastian; I am a merchant," Bastian said with a smile on his face as he crossed one hand over his chest while the other was on his back hips and bent slightly.
"My name is Noel, and I am a Master Witch in the kingdom of the North Empire," Noel replied in a firm tone as Bastian introduced himself.
The servant came in and put the food and drinks on the table between Bastian and Noel. After a few seconds, Bastian finally asked, "So Ms.. Noel, may I know where we will be staying?" he said with a serious tone, staring straight at Noel and smiling faintly.
