Autumn slowly woke up and yawned while rubbing his eyes lazily. He was thinking about to sleep again until her mother grabbed him and bathed him.
Now he was fully awake while being clothed by his mother. He wore a black shirt, pants, and a pair of simple black shoes.
He looked at himself in a mirror and saw a 5-6-year-old boy who had black hair and a pair of crystal red eyes. The boy had an above-average look and the boy seems to be satisfied with how he looks.
While a beautiful woman was standing behind him. She wore a simple but beautiful red dress, she had a willow waist, charming eyes, small cherry lips, and a bountiful chest.
Sophia looked at her son with amazement as he was still 2 years old but he looks like a 6-year-old child. With his son's growth now she was sure that by the time he is 8 years old he will look like a 20-year-old young man.
As she was thinking that to herself a beautiful girl suddenly ran to her son and lifted him while twirling around and laughing happily.
Autumn was enjoying the growth of his height and muscles as he was very satisfied with the half a year of training he did. But suddenly he was lifted and got twirled around, he was shocked at first and was ready to retaliate but only saw a young girl laughing happily while playing around with him.
He can only sigh and said to his mother "Mom, can you please help me. I'm getting dizzy."
As soon as he finished speaking, a light breeze then covered his body and he slowly floated to the bosoms of her mother. Jean was happy that he could play and relax with her little brother but when her mother took him she could only pout and crossed her arms.
Sophia only smiled at her daughter's antics and then looked at her son. She was sure that he was fine with not a look of being dizzy but she had an inkling of a feeling that if she didn't help him her son would probably smack his sister to the ground.
If Autumn knew her mother's thought he would clap his hands to her as she was a hundred percent right.
"Now let's get the royal carriage to have you guys explore the empire. Don't let anyone do anything to your sister, Autumn, protect her, and don't let anyone harm her, understood?" Her mother said strictly to her son.
Autumn nodded while saying "Sure, but I don't think anything will happen to her."
"Even if nothing happens to her, you should still be vigilant, okay?"
"Fine."
Sophia nodded her head in satisfaction and she then turned to her daughter and said "Okay, you two go now and enjoy your time together."
Jean nodded happily and immediately grabbed her brothers' arm and dashed off outside the castle.
Sophia shook her head lightly as she looks at her daughter running like her life depended on it.
Outside the royal castle.
A beautiful and luxurious carriage was waiting outside the royal gates.
The carriage had a simple design, it had a rectangular shape with beautiful runes carved around the carriage. Usually, a horse should be pulling a carriage but the thing that's pulling the carriage was an Earth Walker.
Earth Walkers are elemental beings that can change shape into any shape they want and is commonly used as a guard, sentry, or pulling a carriage. There is no definite shape to what is an Earth Walker as it usually is a floating blob of earth.
A young girl then suddenly arrived at the carriage while she was pulling a 6-year old looking boy with her.
One of the royal guards then opened the door of the carriage for her. She and the boy then walked inside and waited for the departure of the carriage.
"Are you ready to depart, princess?" said the coachman
"Yes, royal coachman, how long will we arrive in the city?" Jean asked in an excited tone.
"Around 30 minutes or so princess." The coachman said respectfully.
"Okay, let's depart then. I want to explore the city before lunchtime." Jean immediately ordered the coachman.
"As you wish princess."
The coachman then chanted "Let the earth mold and change into my command, Shift."
The Earth Walker then turned into a massive 3-meter lion and immediately pulled the carriage at a fast speed.
Jean and Autumn didn't feel that they were moving but with Autumn's senses, they were traveling so fast that it would probably suffocate Jean.
As for why would she suffocate it's because they are traveling inside the earth.
'Suffocation would be an understatement actually, it would be more like her head being crushed into meat paste.' Autumn thought to himself while nodding at his conjecture.
On the other hand, Jean was fidgeting with excitement. Her violet eyes shone with enthusiasm, her hair light blue lilac hair matches her deep violet eyes. A porcelain doll-like face, phoenix-like eyes, and a small cherry lip.
'My sister is indeed very beautiful at such a young age. I wonder how is she gonna look like at age 16 or 18. Maybe she would either surpass or be on par with mom in terms of beauty.' He thought to himself while looking at her sister.
25 minutes later...
"Princess, we have arrived." The coachman's voice sounded inside the carriage.
Jean excitedly opened the carriage door and pulled Autumn along with her. She dashed off immediately to explore the city while the guards followed behind closely, they don't want the prince and princess to be in any shape of harm or danger.
As Jean was dashing around, Autumn noticed a couple of shadows stalking them but they didn't exude any ill intent, they were just watching them.
'Hmmm...must be mother's shadow guards.' He mused to himself and then ignored them.
Jean suddenly stopped in front of a shop. It was a pet store...no, it's more of like a monster pet shop.
