Today is the first day of the winter and it has been a week since grandma came.
And honestly speaking, our lives have been more lively than before. Grandma spends all day with us. And thanks to her I was able to travel through the castle. Sometimes she even let me explore the rooms by myself, but I always end up tiring in 5 or 10 minutes. Crawling is hard and requires a lot of stamina which I lack tremendously.
Sometimes I even fall or hit something and injure myself. Grandma would instantly appear in front of me and heal me at least three times. Although it will be healed on the first try, and I'm not a crybaby, the other two are for 'safety reasons' according to her. Yeah, she is a bit overprotective as well. But she let us be free so it's good.
Besides, these healings are nothing for grandma. She can use it all day without even breaking a sweat.
Why? Because she is powerful!
She is an [-SS] rank, a legendary Healer after all. Yeah, a powerful awakener indeed.
I also can say Mother is just like grandma. Their looks and ways of speaking are the same. They even have the same type of talent - which is related to healing. Besides it was Grandma who taught Mother as well.
However, her talent is a slightly lower rank than Mother's. She has a [S] rank talent called [Eternal Vitality].
From what I know, [Eternal Vitality] grants its possessor the extraordinary ability to heal others with unrivaled power while preserving their own youthful appearance indefinitely. This talent is a rare and coveted gift, making its possessor an invaluable asset to any power or community.
Even though we have to note while [Eternal Vitality] bestows immense healing powers and halts physical aging, it does not grant immortality. The possessor may still succumb to non-healing-related ailments or injuries like any other individual.
So she has to be careful and stay out of danger!
And there is more as well!
Grandma is also widely known throughout the continent. She goes by the titles of 'Helene, the Eternal Beauty' or 'Helene, the Eternal Healer'. Although it may sound exaggerated, it is the truth.
Aside from being a powerful awakener, she is also the former Queen of the Aelerion Kingdom! She ruled the Aelerion Kingdom with Grandpa for nearly 40 years together!
But now uncle is the one who is in charge. He is the only son in the family by the way. I also have two aunts from my mother's side.
And yeah!
My mom was a princess before!
Sometimes I wonder how lucky I am to be surrounded by such big, loving, and powerful people!
But I won't forget to be grateful.
By the way, where are Albert and Brother anyway? Grandma and Hazel disappeared as well. Will I be imprisoned on this chair? Ah, yes. We are 'playing' right now. And I'm a captive held by the 'monster', a demonic dragon.
Grandma somehow changed the table into a dragon using her affinity with the wood element. It must have been a 4th or 5th-rank spell.
"Neigh!" (Albert)
"Go, my horse!" (Somir)
Huh? Am I actually seeing this? Hahaha!! They are so funny!
Brother is running toward me while riding Albert. He has a little wooden sword in his hands which was gifted by Grandma. Their postures are so hilarious! Haha!
"Let's rescue the little princess!" (Somir)
Huh?! What the hell did he call me?!
A princess-?!
That punk!
I will show him who is a princess!
Just let me be free from here!

"Hehe..." Hazel laughed as she watched the children and the unicorn playing. "They are so funny and cute."
"Yeah, they are." Lady Helene smiled as well. She was feeling nostalgic right now. The children reminded her of her own youth when she raised the children by herself. Although maids could do the job, she didn't want her children to grow up like that.
They also used to play games like this, except her son didn't like being the hero all the time.
"My Lady, can I please-?"
"Ok, ok, you can take a picture of them." Lady Helen smiled. "But don't overdo it, ok?"
"Yes! Thanks, my Lady!" Hazel happily replied and tapped the air from time to time.
{This girl sure has a weird hobby...} Lady Helen chuckled internally seeing Hazel's actions.
"Let's save the princess!"
Her attention was drawn to the children once again. As little Somir approached and started 'rescuing the princess', another chuckle escaped from her.
Little Somir was struggling to defeat the 'monster' as he slashed at its head. Albert would also help him by encouraging him with his neighs.
{Guess the baby is angry...} Lady Helene thought looking at Samiel's furious expression. {Weird... Did he understand their words?}
As Somir, the hero, finally defeated the monster, he held the baby in his hands, albeit struggling to carry him.
"Yes! We did it!" He shouted loudly.
"Neigh!" Albert jumped around them in joy and happiness.
"We rescued the prince-!"
"Argh!"
Suddenly Somir screamed out in pain as the baby Samiel started attacking him by pinching his face, nose, etc...
"Wah!" After another painful cry, Somir let go of the baby, clutching his face.
"No, Young Master-!" Hazel screamed. "Cushion Barrier!"
Before Samiel fell to the ground, a blue pillow-like cloud appeared below him. With a slow thud, he landed on the Cushion Barrier, which was soft and resilient.
"Hoo..." Hazel let out a relieved sigh. "Thankfully, I managed this time."
Then she went toward Samiel and picked him up.
While 'the injured' Somir ran toward his grandma asking her to help him. "Grandma!!!"
"Ok, sweetie, come." Lady Helene laughed seeing her grandson's condition. It looked like he was attacked by a little furious cat.
"Aura of Restoration!"
