"So what do you plan by taking the kids" Vesper asked Ezenta whose sitting on a cushion beside the bed while looking at the asleep kids. After having dinner and making both take a bath they sent them to there new room and made sure they fell asleep.
She shrugged her shoulders as she fixed their blanket then stood up.'For now there's nothing yet but there's something curious about'.
"Let's go" she walked out the door followed by Vesper who turned the light of the room before following.
'Vesper an unknown character in the story. He have an impressive combat ability by just by observing him a few days I can say that. But why is he not in the story?
Next are Cimmerian and Zion they are also not in the story. But it does not make sense there capabilities at a very young age is just... Is it because it's romance, it can't be that do not make sense then Vesper would have been one of the secondary male characters.'
"Milady is anything bothering you?" Asked Vesper as they reached Ezenta's room. Ezenta who snapped out of her thoughts replied"nothing you should go rest ".
After sending away Vesper she sat down her bed and looked at the other side of the room where you can completely see the night sky as the curtains are raised.
She stood up and walked towards the terrace. She looked up at the night sky while leaning her back at the railing at the same time held onto it.
"Parallel worlds, is it what call this"she murmured and raised her right hand towards the moon as if taking it in one hand.'It must be but if it is, then I might not be the only one who managed to cross dimensions.'
She lowered her hand and sighed at that thought since it would be troublesome in any cases.
'Lets just focus on my family issues for now'sge told herself and as she thought of her family she smiled. She properly stood up then went back to her room again and slept.

"Vere where are you?"
"Hello there long time no see,miss me?"
Replied the man sitting Infront a communication device.
Communication devices are made by alchemists which can either be used as a recorder or for communication as stated by the name. Mana is needed to activate such but for those who have no mana they usually use Mana stone which can be directly absorbed by the device.
Mana devices also defer in prizes by the size of it. The bigger one is where you can see the other person in the orb. It's size have the same size of a basketball ball.
While the smaller one the size is just as big as a coin. A screen would appear while at use where you can see the other person but it also needed more mana. And has higher price than the bigger one.
"Vere! your traces are found inside the kingdoy where are you?" The man onth either side coldly asked.
"I have a proper job now so don't worry I won't color this place red" he smiled but contradicting that his eyes held irritation at the person in front him.
"Who is it this time?"
"That's off the limits you can ask and as I said I am not painting anybody." He answered in a flat tone.
"...."the guy eyeed him with doubtful eyes and just nodded but opened his mouth.
"The papers have arrived but you better not cause trouble."
"Sure thing say my greetings to Lux and you're the one painting someone so don't warn me like that".

"Who the fuck is it?" Ezenta mumbled as she open her eyes as the Cimmerian and Zion waked her up.
"What does the fuck mean? Zion asked as he stared at the half asleep Ezenta who flinched at the question.
"Ah.....it's not something a kid should know or say get it!?" She responded as she looked around.
"Where Vesper?"
"He said he's informing the kitchen to prepare a table for three for breakfast since we are eating together" Cimmerian said followed by Zion saying"so we woke you up we're hungry by the way".
Ezenta quite dumbfounded answered"kids your quite shameless aren't you?"She answered but she likes it since they are not being pretentious.
"Habit,since things happened here and there" Cimmerian answered.
"Let's talk about those later let's go eat first wait for me here I'm just going in the bathroom to fix myself".
After fixing herself along with the kids they went down to the dining room. As they sat down the servants started serving breakfast.' I should get more money to hire more people' Ezenta thought as she looked at the three servants which are also inchatge for cleaning and usually kitchen maids are different from servants.
The breakfast was silent as they all ate at the same time Ezenta would watch the two eat and continue eating.
"Milady a letter arrived" Vesper said as he came towards me.i fixed my kitchen utensils before getting the letter from Vesper. As she sensed the two children's eyes on the letter she told them to not mind her and just continue eating.
"Seems like my order is done already" I said cheerfully.'The letter was sent to notify me that the weapons that I ordered are already ready to claim'. She folded the letter and put it back in the envelope before passing it back to Vesper.
"Prepare yourselves to go out after breakfast well be going out."
"Where are we going?" the two asked.
"We're gonna get something then let's go buy some clothes for both of us" 'since even if we can make our own clothes we do not have much time so let's go shopping for now.'
The kids looked around the shop with shining eyes as they looked at the weapons.
"Please just let them be"
She said and opened the box containing a pair Italian stiletto dagger.
"Then I would like to see any bow you have and Cimmerian and Zion is there anything you want?" She tilted her head looking at the two who also looked back at her.
"Ian,call me Ian"
"Ion" they simultaneously answered with a smile.
"So is there anything you would like?" With that question they both looked at each other. After a while of silence they answered at the same time.
"A staff and a sword" 'Sword?how old are they they seem to small to hold one" Ezenta thought in her mind contemplating wether to buy them a real sword or a wooden sword to train.
After giving it a thought she thought of buying a wooden sword for now and of course the staff.
She looked at the owner then asked him to show them bow's,staff's and a wooden sword for the kids.
The first one he showed was staff's but nothing caught the eyes of the two.
"What's in that box" Ion asked looking at the box kept on the cabinet.
The owner looked at the box and answered."It been a year since that was given to us by the merchant who delivers materials to us. But we have the same problem we cannot open it so we just put that there."
Ezenta looked at the box and went near it. 'I can sense mana in it but a different one at the same time it's the same ones as the children'.
"Did you try opening it by applying mana?" She asked and the owner nodded. The children looking at it looked at Ezenta with pleading eyes. She sighed and decided to buy it along with the bow that she chose and of course the wooden sword.
After finishing their business in the shop they bought some clothes and decided to go around since there's still much time left. They went to parks bought some food and tried watching operas until it's dawn before they decided to go back.
Tired Ezenta sat inside the carriage and looked at the children messing with each other.
"Ian,Ion how old are you?" She asked and both stopped then sat properly before answering.
"We're seven" Ian answered
'So young at the same time it's quite....if you think about it a seven years old killing people. No one would ever believe that,who would anyways'
She breathed in and looked at the kids before talking."Do you have a teacher?"
"No we are war orphans" she nodded and thought of the information if'uf they're war orphans then I should be able to find some informations about it as far as I know it had been peaceful in the kingdom so far. So there's a high possibility that they come from other kingdoms'.
"Well would you like to serve under me? But since you are still young you can say I will be adopting you since you cannot serve me as a knight nor a servant." The two listened and contemplated.
"Does that mean you will be our mom?"Ian asked.
"Er yeah you can say that but if you don't want to I can just adopt you you don't have to call me that" 'its uncomfortable being called that since I never raised a kid' .
"I will provide you of your needs such as clothes, money and ofcourse education" she smiled 'though I'm still in need in money now you have at least one year before entering the academy. And that's enough for me.'
'I should talk about Vesper about my future plans soon. He didn't come with us since he said he have business to attend to.'
"Why?"Ion asked 'why go too far and adopting we just met not just that she already saw our capabilities so we can still serve her' Ion thought.
'After observing them till now Ion have very mature mind well Ian is also clever but he is more matured but Iam still not sure about this two. In reality I am someone who always makes plan but at the same time I'm flexible. Adopting this two us not really a plan I, just like last time in getting Vesper as my butler it's more if a decision I made at that time as it is now maybe you can call it intuition.'
While looking at the kids she decided to be honest.
"Maybe intuition since I'm far from someone who liked kids or you can call it unknown greed after knowing your capabilities."
They both grinned and a sudden light wrapped around them then their hair and eye colors changed from the black hair and brown eyes they previously had Ions tanned skin before also became a fare skin. She admitted in her thought that it's quite astonishing to watch.
Ian's previous short black hair turned to silver, his hair is also reaching his waist his eye color that was previously brown turned to red he also have a fair skin.
And Ions hair color also turned silver. While his eyes that was previously colored brown became silver which is really rare and his past tanned skin also became more fairer.
"Hi nice to meet you I'm Cimmerian"
"Hello I'm Zion"
They both smiled.
