2 years later.
At the Royal Garden.
A boy sat by the flowers, he had black hair and and a beautiful pair of purple eyes. His face was adorable and he was dressed like a noble. He was Earl Roth, son of Ari Roth.
Across from him was a little girl with silver hair and blue eyes. She was the cutest girl in every sense of the word, dressed in her pink princess gown. She was Princess Sharon Ablax, the youngest daughter of King Ablax.
"Again! Again!"
The two children were currently playing. Earl was now 6 years old while Sharon was 7. Even though Sharon was the older one, it appeared as though Earl was the big brother.
"Okay, I'll do it again." Earl said amicably. He pointed his finger and summoned a stream of water at his finger tips before drawing it across the air. Everywhere his finger went, a stream of water would follow in which he could manipulate the shape of it. This completely wowed the mind of Princess Sharon.
Earl manipulated the water to do loops around Princess Sharon, encasing her within and then changing it into the shape of a blooming flower. Princess Sharon was like the most beautiful flower princess with Earl's water magic.
"Wow!" Sharon reached her small hands out and tried to get a solid grasp of the water around her. But water is water. He fingers went through the water as one would expect. "When will I be able to do this?"
"Maybe next year, Your Highness. I was told that children typically starts learning magic when they turn 8."
"That's not fair! How come you're learning magic already?" Sharon threw a tantrum.
"Well, as the son of my dearest mother, I am considered an exception. This was supposed to be a little secret between the two of us, wasn't it?" Earl patted Sharon on the head and easily calmed her down.
"Okay..."
Earl's and Sharon's relationship has not always been this amicable. Earl remembered when he first met Sharon how haughty and stuck-up she was. It was also at that moment that he came to realize what kind of setting he was in.
The Kingdom of Ablax was ruled by King Ablax under the assistance of his advisors. King Ablax was known throughout the lands to be a kind and understanding king. Under his rule, he has encouraged the widespread use of magic among nobles which earned him the support of many mages. Along with this, were the Court Mages. The Court Mages were the pillars of the Kingdom of Ablax and there were only 4 of them. Among the Court Mages, Court Mage Ari was known to be the strongest.
Because of Court Mage Ari's reputation, even the King of Albax could not order her around easily. This gave Earl an idea of how powerful his background really was. The fact that Earl was adopted was also a major secret that even Earl did not know. This is helped by the fact that Ari and Earl had many similar traits. Namely, their black hair, purple eyes, and fair skin.
Ever since Earl became Sharon's playmate, his reputation has spread far and wide within the Royal Palace, being known as a young genius. This not only benefited Earl's standing, but Ari's standing within the Royal Court as well. With many nobles offering marriage alliances to Earl, Ari's standing was elevated to another level.
"Don't be so down, Your Highness." Earl plucked a flower from the garden and tucked it above Sharon's ear. "You are prettier when you smile." He flashed a smile.
Earl's killer smile caused Sharon to blush. She pressed the flower close to her head and looked down, averting Earl's gaze.
"As a princess, you need not learn something like magic so soon anyway."
"T-true. I am the princess of the great Ablax Kingdom after all!" Sharon continued to avert Earl's gaze and said haughtily.
"That's the spirit, Your Highness." Earl chuckled and lifted himself off the garden floor after catching sight of Ari at the corner of his vision. "It seems our time today is over now, Your Highness. I must return with my mother."
"O-okay. See you!" Sharon waved her goodbyes and finally looked at Earl in the eyes. She really did look like the most adorable princess with a white flower tucked on top of her ear.
Earl smiled and saluted before making way to his mother. They made eye contact and Ari's purple eyes looked at him fondly. She was as beautiful as ever in her black mage robe. He reached his hand out for her to grab and they left the palace together while holding hands.
When they returned home to Ari's magic castle, Earl immediately jumped into Ari's breasts while exclaiming, "Mommy!"
His previous elegant self which he showed to Princess Sharon was completely gone. All that was left was Ari's favorite Earl.
"Oh dear, never growing up are we?" Ari lovingly hugged Earl while petting his head.
Earl had grown taller over the two years and he could now almost reach Ari's breasts while standing up.
"I'm a little sweaty from going out. Shall we take a shower? Fufufu."
"Yeah!"
