Episode 28: Great-Grandchild (Olivia)

"Where did you get these?" I asked.
I knew their origin, they were from Xeleria.
Yet, importing them to our world had to have costed him a fortune.

Elliot grinned.
"I got these from back home. You see, I come from a country called Xian."

"Xian?"
That name sounded strangely familiar.
"Ahh! That's the clan of the wife of the former Magus Maximus!"

Elliot nodded.
"Right. Those two are my great-grandparents."

Did I really end up dishonering royalty?
"No way. You don't even look like Ventus."

He narrowed his eyes.
"I am. I'm the second oldest son of the former leader of our country. She was his grand-daughter."

I just continued to stare.
"Wait, so are you third in line?"

He scoffed.
"How little you know about us. Only women can rule. The current ruler is my younger sister. But right now our aunt, Grace, is taking care of the country while my sister attends a school abroad."

"What are you doing so far from home?"

"I..."
The images of fire returned.
"My father was raised here for some time. I wanted to see the world which he at one point called home."
