The Moonlight Swordsman



Aizel found himself within the confines of a spacious room, accompanied by Edumont and Soren.

He considered staying on his own but ultimately decided to stick with the team in order to show unity before the upcoming event.

The room was spacious, and the four beds it included ensured that everyone could relax and rest.

Right now, he has a considerable sum of money. 

The princess had given him a storage ring, which contained fifty magic crystals and two thousand gold pieces in addition to the potion. (Siren Requim)

While he didn't know the crystals' true value, he understood their potential and their future use.

Aizel's thoughts were racing with all the ways the magic crystals could be used. He knew that these crystals were essential to the power of magic circles, especially teleportation circles. 

Still, he speculated that other magic circles might also be able to tap into the energy of these stones.

Perhaps there were circles capable of instantly transporting individuals to distant kingdoms or circles that could bestow powerful buffs or even alter one's appearance.

Aizel reclined on his bed, turning away from Soren and Edumont, deliberately avoiding any interaction with them. He closed his eyes and succumbed to the comfort of sleep.

Meanwhile, in the other room,

Zareena, Seraphine, Daisy, and Raven were all lounging on their beds, wearing comfortable clothes and having a great time chatting with one another.

"Princess, your informant from the seafolk will visit us tomorrow, right?" Raven asked.

"Yes, I have contacted him. He will pay a visit in the evening tomorrow." Zareena replied.

ƥαṇdα-ηθνε|·ƈθm "Can we trust him? What if there is a chance of a trap?" Raven further inquired.

"He won't do it because he knows what will happen after that. And I have an artifact with me that can help me know if he's lying or not, so don't worry." Zareena assured her.

"That's great, princess! Raveena exclaimed.

"So now we only need to find out about cursed magi and hunt them." She further said.

"Yes, but we need to pay attention to one of them, who is a Grade IV mage." Zareena reminded.

"You are right, princess. We might have to plan and trap him in some way so that we can kill him easily together." 

Zareena nodded.

"By the way Daisy, I am impressed with your capabilities. 

"I knew Princess couldn't be wrong in noticing talents," Raven said while looking toward Daisy.

"Thank you, Miss Raven. I hope I can help as much as I can," Daisy replied.

"Don't call me miss, just Raven," she chuckles a little.

"Daisy, how did you meet Aizel and Vespara?" Zareena asked. 

Zareena's eyes narrowed as she focused them on Daisy, waiting intently for an answer.

"I met Aizel in Chester town. He was in some trouble, so I just provided him with a little help. 

"And I met Vespara in Felgur City. It was Aizel who took me to her, saying that his master wants to meet her," Daisy replied.

Does she really think I am that stupid?" Daisy thought.

"Okay. So how strong is he? You should really know his true power, right?" Zareena further asked.

Seraphine's eyes fluttered open, her gaze veering towards Zareena and Daisy as she caught the faintest hint of their conversation.

"I have never seen him fight before, and he rarely tells anyone anything about that," Daisy replied.

"I am sure that asshole is lying about his power. He had no origins; from where did he appear, and how did he become the student of the War Goddess?

"You should be more careful around him, Daisy. You can't trust a man who appeared out of nowhere," Zareena said.

"If you want, you can come to my place with the kids after we reach home. I will arrange a safe, separate place for you," she further said.

"I am sorry princess, but I can take care of myself," Daisy replied, trying to stay calm.

"The offer will be open for you anytime."

"What are you doing?" Seraphine spoke suddenly.

"What? I am just trying to help her," Zareena replied.

Seraphine's gaze sharpened, her eyes narrowing for a fleeting moment as she shot a sharp glance in the princess's direction. 

*Tsk*

"Fine,"

"I am going to sleep now. Be ready for tomorrow, everyone," Zareena said, and then went to sleep.

"You, come with me outside for a second," Seraphine said as she left the room.

Daisy rose from her bed, her curiosity piqued by Seraphine's reaction.

She quietly excused herself from the conversation and began trailing behind Seraphine.

Always on the lookout, Raven watched the two people go with intense curiosity in her eyes.

Seraphine led Daisy through the crowded inn, dodging patrons until they reached the restaurant.

She led her to a secluded corner, where the noise and commotion seemed to fade away into a distant murmur. Taking a seat in the tranquility of the corner, they settled in.

"Don't involve yourself too much with them," Seraphine said.

Daisy met Seraphine's intense gaze for a brief moment before finding her voice to respond.

"I know that."

"And stay away from the princess. Don't give her any chance to have an upper hand on you,"

"Why are you telling me all this? Don't you have a good relationship with your sister?" Daisy suddenly questioned her.

"Good relationship? huh... Do you think I will have a good relationship with Felgura?

"She is a bitch, just like her father," Seraphine replied.

"Then why you...

"It's better for you to not pry into other people's lives and their relationships. 

"And don't tell anyone about what I said here. If you utter a single word about this, then you know what can...

"Know what?" Suddenly, a voice behind her resounded.

Seraphine turned around and saw Aizel standing behind her, his eyes staring right at her.

How wasn't I able to sense him? Seraphine thought.

"I am just trying to tell her not to get close to the princess," she replied.

"Daisy, go back to your room."

Daisy nodded and went back to her room.

"Stay away from her. She doesn't need your or anyone's advice," Aizel said.

"Do you consider me the same as them?" Seraphine asked.

She closed the distance between them, locking her eyes with Aizel's unwavering gaze.

"I don't give a shit about you or anyone else. For me, you all are the same, "Scum."
