Chapter 41 - Chapter 36: The Sacred Grounds (1)

Suddenly, a blinding light enveloped Regis' group forcing them to close their eyes. The next moment they opened their eyes, the scenery in front of them already changed and refreshing smell of leaves and flowers tickled their nose.

Green grasses, green leaves, thick woods, and different-colored flowers entered their sight. It's like they are inside a huge inhabited forest.

"Finally, we're here. Let's go." Said Regis with a smile plastered on his face. He leads Arias by the hand and headed towards something like he knew the place very well.

Reena excitedly follows Regis while skipping around like a little fairy. It doesn't matter to her if the place where they are unknown to her. As long as her big brother is with her, she can move freely as much as she can.

For the other girl's cases, Cecil and Clarabelle just followed suit behind the siblings without saying anything making Elizabeth who wanted to ask something abandoned her thoughts and trailed behind them.

After several minutes of walking, Regis finally stopped. He suddenly turned around and grabbed Reena right hand with his left as his left hand is holding Arias. Then, he pulled them gently to walk with him together. The girls wondered what Regis is thinking but they can only follow him.

Few moments after that, a beautiful scene appeared in front of them…

Lush green plants and trees, swaying colorful and fragrant flowers and dancing butterflies surrounded them. But the amongst beautiful things in their line of sight, there is something that is more beautiful that captured their eyes...

In the wide field of flowers and flying little dots of golden lights entered their visions. Looking closely, those dots of golden lights in the air are the fairies! That is the legendary Fairies!

Fairies are just like the legends said, they are beautiful creatures that was small in size with a height of three inches. They have golden hair, golden eyes, and very white skin. They really love nature and was also being loved by nature. They are the guardian of the forests, creatures that are not affected by time and has a high affinity on the six main elements of magic. Fairies' body is constantly glowing with a golden radiance that enables them to fly and they can turn their body in a small ball of golden light to move very fast.

Aside from Regis, all the girls with him are truly captivated by the scene. Beautiful creatures like fairies, matched with a peaceful and very colorful field of flowers. There's no way a girl, be it young or old, to be not attracted to this.

"...Is this for real?" muttered Arias while staring at the fairies in front of her.

Elizabeth unconsciously pinched her own cheek to check if it's all just a dream. But the force she applied almost made her scream in pain, there's no way it was unreal.

"Hehe~! Fairies are such cute things~!" Reena said cheerfully as she tugged Regis' hand, implying that she wants to see them closely.

"Come, let's greet them." Nodding at his sister, Regis let Reena pull him forward as he also dragged Arias. Cecil, Clarabelle, and Elizabeth immediately followed behind them, also looking excited.

Sensing a group of people approaching, the fairies started to gather at the spot in front of them. It seems that they are not afraid of outsiders.

"Hello, little fairies~!" beamed Reena to the floating fairies.

Arias and Elizabeth suddenly tensed a bit when they saw the fairies in a very close distance, while Regis, Clarabelle, and Cecil doesn't show that much reaction.

[Greetings humans! It's been a while since the last visitor came here.] said one of the fairies.

The fairies can communicate to each other through telepathy. They are simple-minded creatures and they also have the same opinion about everything so only one needs to talk for everyone and fairy can be the one to do that. Because of this, all the fairies are equal with the exception of their queen.

The Fairy Queen, the oldest and the very first fairy to ever exist in the world. She is the one who gives birth to the other fairies and she's also the main source of life for the other fairies. Since it was like that, the Fairy Queen almost never reveal itself from the others and only shows herself to the world when there's a very special scenario that concerns the balance of the world was happening.

"Fairies of this sacred land, we came to appreciate the tranquility and beauty of this land," Regis said as he takes a step forward indicating that he is the leader of the group.

The fairies stared at him for a moment. After that, the fairies began to cheerfully fly around Regis while saying...

"—Oh! It's the same human again~!"

"The human king, welcome!"

"You're welcome to come here anytime, King~!"

The one by one, the fairies delightfully greeted Regis and welcomed him. They also happily welcomed Arias, Reena, Cecil, Clarabelle, and Elizabeth as they were his companions.

"As expected of my big brother~! Even the fairies know of him!" Reena said proudly as she skips around Reena.

"Princess, why did they call him a king? Is Regis perhaps a royalty from another country?" Elizabeth asked Arias who is standing nearest to her.

Elizabeth expected that much considering that Arias being Regis's very close friend. But much to her expectations, Arias shakes her head.

"No, they can't be. Regis and Reena are orphans and I met Regis during our childhood so he can't be royalty from a faraway country." Arias looked at Regis. She came to know him in the past so there's no way it could happen.

"Eh? But you said that they are orphans. And maybe ever since he traveled around somewhere, he found the other members of their family." As she says that, Elizabeth turned at Regis with a suspicious look.

'.....This Regis.... maybe these siblings are hiding something.'
