Lucy's POV

I walk over to a small billboard and look at the jobs posted on there.

"Hmm.. Oi, Taatara'i, let's go on this job!" I yell, gaining Est, Lily, and Lilac's attention.

"It's taking an item to a town about 20 miles away. It will be good for training, and give us time to catch up," I begin, earning smiles from my team members, "-and the reward is 8,000,000 jewel. It's a hand crafted gold and ruby crown for a Queen in a town called England, or something." I say, making their jaws drop.

"And besides, we can open a portal to the destination. Easy as pie~ And we'll just walk most of it back to catch up." I sung. 

"Alright, let' s go!" They all said in unison.

"Okay." I said, smiling, and opened a portal to the requesting town, Blacksmith. No wonder why they made the crown, it's probably filled with blacksmiths. And I was correct.

"Ahoy there, ladies!"

"Ciao to you~"

"Oi, are ye the ones who took thi' job r'quest?" Wait. That last one... I turned my head in that direction, and saw... a female blacksmith? She saw my confused face and shook her head.

"I suppose so. Noice Sab'rtoo' marks. Very creative, I'll tell 'ya. Anyway, 'ere's the crown. DON'T. Harm or steal it. Else I'll hunt 'ya down and rip out yer liver. Anyway, 'ave a good walk!" She says, walking back into her small home. I smirk and open a portal to 'England''s castle, and walk inside, the others behind me. I walk  past the steps, but weird looking guards stop me.

"Halt! State your business, mages." The first one says. I roll my eyes and hold up the crown.

"We have a delivery from Blacksmith. The crown?" I say. They nod and step aside, allowing us to walk into the building. Once we walk inside, the Queen comes out, wearing a slightly rusty, silver crown. Huh.

"Oh, splendid. Well done, mages of Sabertooth. Here is your reward." She says, and we exchange between crown and jewels. I smile at her and bow slightly.

"Thank you very much, Queen of England. I hope you have a pleasant day. Haere mai, kotiro (Come, girls.). Na wahine ofeina (And adorable wife)~" I sung, making Est blush and turn around, and making the girls giggle. I chuckle and walk outside, the girls behind me.

"So, Lily, Lilac, what have you been doing?" Est asked.

"Well, me 'n Lily have just been doing jobs for the magic council and such. We just got to Crocus 5 days ago. Only the magic council knew what magic we used, but now probably everyone knows~" She said sheepishly. I laughed.

"Est and I have been training very hard. Every month, I have to check on my Constellations, and Estrexia has to check on her planets and galaxies." I explain. They nod and smile.

~timeskip, at Sabertooth~

I push open the doors, and it seemed like Sting was in the middle of an announcement.

"Oi, Taatara'i! C'mere, I'm announcing the S class exam participants for in a week." Sting says, and we hurry into the crowd.

"Now, the 5 people trialing will be...

Orga Nanagear, with his Lightning God Slaying magic.

Estrexa Tetaroha, with her Galaxy God Slaying magic.

Atuana Tetaroha, with her Constellation God Slaying Magic.

Yukino Agria, with her Celestial Magic.

And... Ahi Kaiso, with his Fire magic." Sting says, earning cheers and groans from the crowd.

"Now, choose a partner! We're heading out to the survival grounds in 1 week!" He yells. I smile, and run up to Lily.

"Lily, e hiahia ana ki te hei toku hoa (want to be my partner)?" I ask my amazing daughter, Lily. She smiles and nods, calmly standing.

"Hiahia aroha ahau ki, whaea (I'd love to, mother)." She responded, making me smile wider.

"D'aww, ahau aroha koe (I love you)...~" I sing, making her blush and hug me. I laugh and hug her back. The people listening to our 'conversation' were confused. I mean, who wouldn't be? We were speaking a lost language.

"For those confused, Atuana was asking Lily to be her partner." Rufus said, tilting his hat. I smile and nod.

"Our family can fluently speak Reo'whetu, an old lost language. My father taught it to me." I said, smiling. Rufus looked surprised.

"You can fluently speak it? Even I couldn't understand your full conversation." He says, making a few people gasp.

"Well, it's a lost language for a reason. I'm afraid I can't teach you. Kite koe a tawhio noa (See you around)~" I sung, dragging Lily over to Est and Lilac. As predicted, Lilac was Est's partner.

"Well, looks like we're competing against each other. Also, did you notice?" I asked, putting on a serious face.

"Ne? Notice what?" Est asks.

"How that last competitor's name was 'Ahi', or 'Fire' in Reo'whetu. It might be a coincidence, or it might not be. Be on the look-out." I say. All three nod, with serious faces on. I smile, losing the serious face.

"Pai, kia haere ha haapiipii (Well, let's go train)!!!" I yell, earning cheers from my family.
