"What?" The Aurai nymphe said as he immediately got off the bed. "Who are you?"

"Hey," The child king of the Aeolian clan said. "Please, do not be afraid. I am sorry that I yelled."

Canossila looked at the child king of the Aeolian clan and realized that the boy was utterly unaware that he had rendered her powerless a moment ago.

"Who are you?" The Aurai nymphe asked. "Why are you here?"

"I am Henry, king of the Aeolian clan."

"A king?" Canossila replied. "Surely, you are no ordinary king I have ever met. And, so young." She paused. "Please do tell me that you didn't mean what you said about Hippotades being dead and all."

The child king of the Aeolian clan did not know how to respond to what the Aurai nymphe had said. He did not know it was a compliment or an insult, however, he thought it was irrelevant.

"I don't know who this Hippotades is, but the god of air in our world had been long dead. His name was Aeolus."

"So, you are from another world." Canossila was in awed as she stared curiously at the child king of the Aeolian clan. "I heard that other realms exist, but I haven't met anyone. Well, how could I? We've been imprisoned in this castle for centuries."

She paused.

"And, how did you know this Aeolus?" The leader of the Aurae nymphes asked.

"Well, I don't know him exactly because he was long gone when I was born. But I am his descendant."

"A god, eh?"

"I doubt it. I am just royal brat who became king because my father mysterious disappeared from our world."

"And, what do you seek here, then?"

The child king hesitated for a bit. However, he knew there was no other way to say it but straightforwardly.

Canossila studied him and her face suddenly became gloom.
