Dinner ended two hours later, after which the servant cleaned up the table and served the fine flower tea to everyone. Dayton is famous for its abundance of flowers, and the flower tea that is dried and flavored by taking all kinds of flowers is a must in Dayton. The girls all choose their favorite flowers to make tea, and after having the servant tell the servant three times about all the types of flower tea, they still have no clue, and finally choose jasmine tea.

Colorful teas are placed in front of everyone, exuding the fragrance of various flowers. Ness ordered gardenia tea, and the fragrance wafting from the almost colorless tea was refreshing, but under the cover of the strong fragrance of the rose tea ordered by Rui and Nerfi next to her, it was only a little floating and was masked.

During tea time, everyone no longer talked about the previous annoying things, but talked about all kinds of light topics. As Jasmina asks Ness about some interesting things that have happened to her since she left the Mage Tower, the two princesses talk to Nerfi and Rui about various anecdotes about Canrito, who has never been to Canrito and is full of curiosity about the kingdom without a king. Lucius is talking with Stan about the details of the knighthood ceremony, and Stan's face is one of pride and pride, and the other is respectful. The queen listened attentively, interjecting a sentence or two from time to time.

Fern was silently drinking tea alone, and since there was no one across from the seat he was sitting on, he was unsurprisingly left alone. But Fern didn't feel uncomfortable, and loneliness was a pleasure, without anyone to disturb him, and he could think about things that he didn't have the opportunity to think about on a daily basis.

Ness, who had just finished answering one of Morena's questions, remembered Fern who was sitting next to her and was left behind. "Fern, it's just you and Stan who are going to Canrito this time, but we have four girls, won't it be a little difficult for you to protect us?"

"This ......" Fern was interrupted by Ness's sudden question. "You're all different now, and there's an archmage, so I don't think there will be many people who dare to trouble us. ”

"Yes, Fern, I think of our first meeting in Deville, as if it were just a few days ago, when I didn't understand anything. Ness smiled shyly, her shy face and the scent of gardenia from the girl's mouth made Fern a little confused.

"Yes...... Yes, I've grown a lot too......" Fern shifted his gaze to his teacup.

"You will grow more, and you will have to go through no less than you have before. Jasmine held the teacup in both hands and slowly sipped the tea.

Fern looked at Jasmine strangely. "You speak like you're a whole generation older than us, but you're not as old as I am. ”

"You need a mage like me, Fern, and only I can bring out your potential. Even in front of Ness, Jasmine was not shy about showing interest in Ferne.

Ness couldn't sit still. "What do you mean by that, Molina?"

Jasmine didn't care, the archmage put down the teacup and looked at Niss seriously. "Ness, every female mage needs a guard, but good warriors are not so easy to find, and it is even harder to find a seamless warrior who can work with you, but I think Fern is the one I am looking for. ”

"How...... How could it be?" Ness was overwhelmed.

"Don't listen to her, Ness. Fern brought his tea to Ness. "This jasmine tea is good, do you want to try it?"

"Ah...... This one. While Ness was still hesitating, Ray overheard their conversation and secretly stepped on Ness under the table, and Ness reflected and took the teacup. "Thanks, Fern. ”

Fern smiled and handed the teacup to Ness, then casually picked up Ness's gardenia tea and took a sip. "It smells so good, Ness, and may you always be as spotless as a gardenia. Fern looked at Ness tenderly, and only she was left in his eyes.

Ness felt her face heat as if she had a fever, and the girl panicked and took a sip of jasmine tea and put it back in Fern's hand. "You...... Your tea is also delicious...... Vern. ”

Morena waited for the two of them to change back the teacups before she said lightly, "Are you doing this for me? Do you know what it means for men and women to drink each other's tea?"

Ness blushed with her head down, not daring to answer the archmage's words, and Fern simply didn't bother to pay attention to her, drinking tea to himself. Rui decides to give his friend a hand. "Jasmine, maybe you don't know it yet, but even though Ness and Fern are separated by half Wallis, they can still sense the danger that the other is encountering, and even feel each other's feelings.

"Really?" This time, Morena's face finally changed, and the half-moon-shaped eyes widened. "You ...... Have you done anything?"

"We haven't done anything!" Ness replied categorically, looking up.

"Really?" said Morena with a noncommittal expression. "I won't believe it unless I see it with my own eyes. ”

Ness didn't reply, and the three of them remained silent until late at night.

Lucius seems to have lost track of time, and he has forgotten who he is when he talks to Stan, as if he were a young man who had just been knighted. After Queen Leopold had reminded him several times, the king had finally ended the party, and the two princesses were still unsatisfied, as if they could not wait to go to Canrito with Fern and the others to-morrow.

Fern deliberately walked around the garden, wanting to wait for Morena to go back to the bedroom in the inner room, so as to save some embarrassment. It's okay to survive tonight, just one night, Fern thought to himself. The garden was silent in the middle of the night, the cold night wind blew on his body, and Fern wrapped his cloak tightly.

The sound of neat footsteps came from behind, and the patrolling guards quickly passed by Fern's side, and after the last sneak attack of the demons, the patrol guard squad was now increased to a group of ten, and the guards held torches, and after confirming that the figure who was still hanging out in the middle of the night was the king's guest, they left without looking back.

Fern had just regained his thoughts when a small and rapid footstep came from behind, and the mercenary looked back alertly, only to see a thin figure running towards him.

The figure of "...... Fern" ran closer, and at the same time, there was a peculiar scent of the girl's body.

"Ollie...... Weina: "By the faint moonlight, Fern could see the girl's face clearly. "Why are you here when you don't go to sleep so late?"

"Why don't you even say a word to me!" Olivia's eyes glistened with tears.

"I can't promise you anything, we are not people of the same world, you should listen to your mother and choose a suitable person from among the princes who will propose marriage. "Fern didn't give Olivina any leeway.

Two lines of tears slid down Olivina's cheeks. "As I said earlier, I don't want a prince at all, only you are the only person in my mind. ”

"We're not going to have results, Olivia. Fern decided to relentless and turned away.

The princess's shoulders shook. "I don't know why, the first time I saw you, my whole heart was filled with you, I can't hold anyone else in my heart anymore, Fern, even if you leave me, I won't accept anyone else!"

Fern stopped. "Time will erase everything, princess, you will forget me after all, and then someone more suitable for you than me will come into your heart. With that, Fern stepped again.

"No, Fern, no!" Olivina shouted, ignoring the risk of being heard in the garden in the middle of the night, behind Fern's fading back. "There will only be you in my heart, there will be no one else, do you hear, there will be no one else!"

Fern quickened his pace, and finally returned to Morena's room, the bedroom door was lit by a faint fire, and Morena had already entered her bedroom, and Fern closed the door and threw herself on the bed, her whole face buried in the pillow. Why, O Seven, isn't the Dark Tide troublesome enough? and give me this test? I'd rather fight the Ethereal Spirit again than face this situation.
