ραΠdαsΝοvεl.cοm The airship descended into the city's small port, as the gates leading there slowly opened, bringing forth a dozen royal guards wearing white and golden armor, which escorted grandmother down the stairs. At her side there was also some familiar faces, my aunt Aina, and her daughter and my cousin Susanna, who was about a year younger than me.

It was nice to see them again, it has been a year since the last time they visited. Aunt Aina was just as pretty as always, resembling my mother quite a lot, but with a gentler smile and a longer and fluffier hair. Susanna was like her mother, but smaller, the same blonde hair and bright green eyes, wearing a frilly and cute dress.

I've had some time to bond with my cousin, Susanna seems like a rather carefree girl. Maybe a bit too carefree I would say. She doesn't act like her age at all, and it feels like she never grew up since the first time I saw her…

She's gentle and nice but she really needs to start studying something or trying to think about what she should like to do, but she often spends her days going around the garden, eating snacks, and trying out new dresses, or maybe playing with dolls…

Ah, maybe that's what someone at my age should do instead? I can't really guess. But I thought that in this kind of world you're supposed to focus on growing stronger, even if a bit.

And grandmother, of course, she was as radiant as ever, waving her hand at the large group of nobles gathered in the port to greet her. Alongside some high ranked civilians.

"Hello everyone! How have you been~?" Grandmother said while smiling happily, slowly descending the stairs.

"It's Queen Arlayna!"

"Queen Arlayna, she's here!"

"She is so dazzling!"

"Watching her is a privilege, her very existence is divine!"

"She's like a goddess…"

"T-Those wings, they're so pretty!"

"Wow your grandma's a celebrity, everyone's crazy for her." Aquarina said at my side.

"Hahahah… Yeah." I sighed.

Aquarina and her family were here, alongside the rest of my friends with their families behind us. When grandma arrived downstairs, she happily greeted us with hugs.

"Uwaah! My daughter dearest!" She said, hugging my mother. "My granddaughter dearest!" She hugged me and gave me a kiss in my cheek. "And my adorable grandson dearest!" And then she went to Zephy.

"You're all so cute together!" She celebrated, her very presence emanated a rainbow radiance around her.

"Good morning mother, I am happy to see you again." My mother said.

"Hello grandma!" Zephy said.

"It is nice to see you again, grandmother." I said with a smile.

"Now, mother, if you could-"

"Oh my! Zephy! Have you become even cuter when I was out?!" She asked, petting his head, and giving him kisses over his face. "So cuteeee! So tiny and precious! You're like a little doll, hehe!"

"Uggh… H-Heheh…" Zephy felt slightly overwhelmed by grandmother already, but he was holding back really well.I think you should take a look at ραΠdαsnovel.cοm

"G-Grandma, mommy was trying to tell you something, don't be rude!" I said with my most adorable voice, while pouting.

"Oh my! R-Right!" Grandmother snapped out of it. "Yes, my dearest? Oh right! We must go eat! And look at this city! So pretty and colorful! Far gone are the days when this place was known as the backwater city." She laughed.

"Y-Yeah, I've been working myself to death to recover it to its former glory." My mother said with a forced smile. "Now, if you-"

"Sylphy! You have a stronger aura! Have you grown stronger? Your Magic Power feels like it is overflowing! Girl, you're truly becoming a new Hero!" Said my grandmother, ignoring mother once more.

"Yeah I've been training diligently! Now grandma we should greet everybody here politely." I said with a smile.

"Very well! Hello, good to see you all!"

My grandmother, who had a terrible attention span, finally got to greet the rest of the nobles that were being ignored, and my father and Arafunn too, which she didn't even noticed were with us… And then Aquarina which she noticed because she was very cute, and then her parents, and then the rest of the children because… you guessed it, they were cute. At the same time, we greeted Aina and Susanna.

"It is nice to see you all once more." Said Aina. "Sylphy and Zephy have grown quite a lot- Oh, Aquarina as well."

"Hello auntie, it is good to see you again as well." I said with a smile.

"Yes, all the kids have grown quite a lot in a single year, I've heard it too many times…" My mother sighed.

"Y-Yeah, it is a bit hard to deal with her but do your best, sis." Said Aina.

"I'm trying my best." My mother sighed, looking exhausted already.

"Hello Sylphy! I like your new dress! Do you like mine? It was super expensive!" Susanna said, showing me her dress while doing a little spin.

"O-Oh! Yes, very pretty!" I said, smiling at Susanna. "It looks especially dazzling on you, Susanna! You're already like a princess!"

"Heheheh, really?" Susanna giggled while feeling embarrassed. She loved being praised.

"Y-Yeah!" I reaffirmed her.

I had to be nice with her and also treat her very well. I don't want to make her grow angry at me or something and then grow an enmity. She is the daughter of Aina, one of the most influential children of the King and Queen of the Kingdom.

In the future, her friendship might help me a lot to deal with royal and nobility stuff I might have little clue about, so curry favoring her is essential.

"Allan! I hope you're taking good care of my daughter dearest. At first nobody was really happy about your marriage with her, but I always had good opinion of you." She said with a smile. "You've also brought to me so many adorable grandchildren!"

"A-Ah, yes, thank you very much, Queen Arlayna." Said my father.

"Just mother-in-law is fine for me!" She said with a giggle. "Now- Oh!"

Grandma kept getting lost by seeing every single thing around the city, until we finally made our way to our house, where a banket prepared by Jonathan was awaiting us.
