Young Magic I: Shoujo and Shounen Wars

Four: Hopeshire Castle

After Millard Moth has agreed to cooperate with the Young Magic Peacemakers, the young secretary was immediately landed on by his cartographer who have descent from the sky after being sent soaring upwards into it, the small crash awkwardly producing a squeaky sound.

The battlefield inside the Hopeshire Castle was to continue.

For now, the god Leafy and Princess Veronica Hopeshire was eye to eye, a conversation they held with tension present within the atmosphere.

The others watched as the two made their impressions.

"Young Magic Peacemakers? That's what you call yourselves?" Princess Veronica scoffed slightly, holding onto her tall, sharp spear. "You... truly wish to make peace, Leafy?"

The green-haired god of trees nodded, walking up the stairs that led to Veronica's throne. "Just like last time we met, where we spent time together nurturing the castle garden and experienced peace. As well as happiness and friendship."

"That truly is a delightful dream to experience, but I must refuse. It's not that I'm acting selfish. Most importantly, Hopeshire Castle will not tolerate the region of Young Magic Shounen, and instead I, Princess Veronica Hopeshire, shall show them the consequences of their actions. Young Magic Shounen needs to learn some lesson of respect." Veronica stated.

Leafy seemed gloomy and ominous as he glanced down at the floor. "T-Then... w-would you at least cooperate... if we settled this over the combat?"

Princess Veronica paused slightly, staring observantly and stunned at Leafy.

Both Andy Nightingale and Claudia Rivers stood up, watching the scene in uneasy silence.

Then Andy's eyes widened and gasped quietly when their reverse fortune telling began acting up on them about the ominous tree deity and the white-haired Hopeshire princess.

Princess Veronica wandered around the castle garden. She was in her younger years, specifically the age of six years.

Her white hair was tied neatly in pigtails as they swayed at each step she took on the rocky path of the garden.

Several flowers and plants bloomed beautifully, and they were separated and distinguished in a container of their kind and species.

All of a sudden, the little princess sensed that someone else was with her, and so she followed the source of where she had sensed the presence.

She found a green-haired child who seemed to be the same age she was, who was using a kind of magic to grow out the roots and branches of larger plants much faster, and she was amused by his ability that she can't help but approached him.

"That's so cool! How are you doing that?" little Veronica gasped.

The green-haired child seemed surprised by how the little princess found him.

He uneasily glanced at her and made a gaze of nervousness and regret.

He blushed in embarrassment and backed away, then spoke up and revealed a soft voice. "I-I'm s-sorry! I-I'm intruding! I-I'll leave right away-"

"Ah, don't go yet! First, I'll introduce myself, okay?" Veronica politely smiled.

Sheld the frilly edges of her dress and curtsied out of respect. "Pleasure to meet you. I'm Princess Veronica Hopeshire, daughter of King Victor Hopeshire and Queen Victoria Hopeshire and Hopeshire kingdom's royal princess."

"A-Ah... Hello... I-I'm Leafy... The god of trees." the green-haired child replied.

"Oh, you're a god! That's why you can do that? That's really great!" Veronica complimented. "Now you can help me properly raise the castle garden. We'll take care of it together!"
