Zenaida POV
Me and father stand at the main door of the palace and saw the two royals and i bow to the Obelian royals

"I welcome you at our Perionne empire, my name is Zenaida De Diosa Perionne and the first princess of the Perionne Empire" I said while bowing down and then i get up

"I hope you have a nice trip" I said to her with a little smile 

"Yes, even though it's exhausting, it's a nice trip" She said

"Right Papa?" She turned to look her father beside her but only saw that her father and my father is staring at each other with an awkward atmosphere surrounding them

"Uhhhhh...." 

"They're still awkward between each other huh?" I said to Athanasia

"Well it's understandable since they're childhood friends and get reunited in a meeting 4 months ago...so yeah" Athy reply

"We should get inside now" Dad said and turn to head inside and behind him followed by Claude without saying anything

Me n Athy face palm 'How long do they want to stay awkward like this?' We both thought in sync and followed our two dads who is very uncomfortable with each other

Dad and Athy's father have already started the meeting along with a few nobles and now i want to spend my time with Athy in my garden that Dad gifted me as my present on my 5th birthday

"Come here Athy" I said while waving her to come here

"What's wrong Zenny?" 

"I want to show you smth and i think you'll like it" I said while walking to a door in the garden to show her smth

"What do you want to show me?" 

"You'll find out, it's just behind this door" I said as i put my hand on the door and the door changed into a light purple color 

I turned to Athy and saw her shocked face because of the color changing door

"I'll explain to you later but now..." I said and open the door to reveal a gorgeous garden that doesn't even look real and Athy's face become more shocked now

 "Welcome to the Mythical Garden" I said with Athy following me behind with a sparkling eyes and a wide smile

 "Welcome to the Mythical Garden" I said with Athy following me behind with a sparkling eyes and a wide smile

(This is the garden Zenaida show to Athanasia)

"Wow, what kind of garden is this?" 

"Well it's basically a garden that is filled with mana and that makes it look like this"

"A garden that's filled with mana? Never heard of a garden like that but it's gorgeous" Athy said

"My father gift me this garden on my 5th birthday as a present and he also said that my mother always took care of this garden before she died"

"Oh...i'm sure your mother are a great person" 

"Mmm" I nod in reply

'Maybe...but i think she is consider how much Dad loved Mom since i saw a beautiful portrait of her inside his room'

Athanasia POV
How can a garden be this gorgeous??!! If a garden are this gorgeous i would take good care of them and look after them everyday!!

"Wow, what kind of garden is this?" I ask Zenny who is now looking in front

"Well it's basically a garden that is filled with mana and that makes it look like this" She replied

"A garden that's filled with mana? Never heard of a garden like that but it's gorgeous" I said while look at the water that doesn't even looked like water  

'Why does the water look like that? Is it the reflection of the garden's color or it's naturally that color?' I thought but i snap out of my thoughts after heard what she said

"My father gift me this garden on my 5th birthday as a present and he also said that my mother always took care of this garden before she died" 

I look at her but not with pity eyes because i remember what she said when we met four months ago when she told me about her past

"If i ever tell you about my past. it's never because i want you to feel sorry for me, but so you can understand why i am who i am"

'That's what i remember she said to me back then before me and papa leave to go back to the Obelian empire'

"Oh...i'm sure your mother are a great person" 

We really have a lot in common huh? We're both motherless and they died when we don't even have a chance to see them in real life that means they died right after we're born, have a psychopathic father who is an emperor and probably more

"Mmm" She nod as a reply and she turn to my direction

"We should get going now, you said you wanna learn magic right?" She said

'Oh yeah, i almost forgot about that'

"Yea let's go" I smile at her and then we exit the garden

"How many skills you have in total Zenny?"

 "Hmm....idk...probably more than i can count but i'm sure you can catch up to me so don't worry"

"I'm not that worried since i don't really mind if i don't learn much, besides i just want to learn basic magic" I smile to her who is now walking beside me

'HOW CAN SHE LEARN SO MANY SKILLS AND MAGIC WHEN SHE'S JUST A 7 YEAR OLD??!! Plus she also have much more control over her mana and magic while i'm here who is 11 years old and only learn a lil bit about magic and more and my grimoire have only a lil spells'

"Athy?"

"Huh??" I turn to Zenny's direction

"Is there smth wrong?" She ask with a confused look on her face

"Oh nothing, just think about the magic that we could learn" I said with a smile 

"But who's the teacher Zenny" I ask again

"Me and Rimuru"

'Rimuru? Who's that? The name sounds like a japanese name so he's probably not from here'

"Rimuru is a magic teacher of mine and he's a magician but also my personal bodyguard. Even though he wears a butler looking outfit, he's not really a butler"

"I see" I said and starting to wonder what this 'Rimuru' guy looks like

"We're here, come in"

I came into Zenny's room which i've seen it before and i still thinks her room is beautiful

"He should be here any mome-" Zenny said but was cut off by a man behind her

"I'm here your highness" A man with long blue hair and golden eyes said

'Is it him? I would've mistaken him as a girl if it's not for that butler outfit'

"Right on time Rimuru"
