Despite how it seemed Avery's and Sabine's mommy was even more mysterious and secretive.

What terrified many was the fact that they weren't sure if she had left for The Ancestral World or not. Resulting in both her and Avery coupled with that of her sisters being quite terrifying to many.

And for good reason mind you!

The fact that they could create death mazes and torture towers on The Continent of The Gods with zero to no oversight said as much, they were simply terrifying beyond belief.

Thankfully enough Sabine was their second baby brother and the youngest, who was still watched over by their mother for that reason alone.

As for his other brother, he had only met him once, he had apparently had a child named Colin decades before.

Causing Sabine to then helplessly sigh and Asher to then happily get to know his new little brother and big sisters! Which funnily enough resulted in Asher already knowing the young prince was a boy without even needing to be told.

Surprising the young prince and making him really happy knowing Asher could tell! Resulting in the two adorably conversing.

While Octavia questioned Sabine about Avery since apparently she never visits them before then mentioning the young prince's mortal avatar made from the Ancestral Bloodline whatever, named Auriana surprising Sabine.

"That's impressive! However, fair warning, big sister Avery isn't at all simple, and I'm not allowed to 'repeat' what she had already said her plans, or anything related with those two things for a reason! You should always be precautious!"

"Thankfully enough since I haven't heard anything about mortal avatars coming from big sister, I should be allowed to give you my thoughts?"

"Chances are if those 'are' big sister Avery's fragments even if they came from your Ancestral Bloodline, I'd suggest you watch her or else she'd become a mini Avery or something equally absurd!"

Sabine helplessly explained surprising both Octavia and the young prince causing him to then adorably nod, and after several mental messages back and forth Auriana had soon made an appearance!

To put it simply she had been sleeping more and more and didn't wish to involve herself unless truly needed, due to her still undergoing her transformation and wasn't in any mood to be social because of it.

Surprising her and causing her to then surprisingly frown.

"Little Sabine, before your arrival, did 'Avery' by any chance ask you to report back to her about my progress?"

"If so I'd be quite happy to inform you it's all going to her plan, whether I like it or not it seems? Now if there isn't anything else I'll return to The Imperial Quarter and keep Hanah company"

Auriana strangely confessed before then simply disappearing once more and ultimately returning to Hanah's room surprising everyone even further by how puzzling her words truly were.

All the while confirming everyone's suspicions, while Sabine couldn't help but let out a helpless sigh, having apparently got it right.. again!

It's gotten to the point that given enough time he'd eventually just know albeit fragments of Avery's intentions and projects.

Which despite sounding quite impressive was still less than anyone else who knew her.

The only real difference being she was his big sister, and because of it, he knew her quite a bit more than anyone else. At least in some aspects meaning Avery was still very much a mystery.

While as what she had spoken to him about, and even what his other big sisters had, he simply couldn't reveal them. He did love his mommy and big sisters after all, so being entrusted to such information was even more important to him now!

And funnily enough, he didn't know of Auriana until now, resulting in his 'fair' warning essentially turning into an arcane missile and hitting its target in the most comical way possible.

All the while revealing something awful as if a pandora's box containing a letter explaining 'just' that, ultimately souring the mood.

"Big sister never mentioned this, so despite how it may seem, big sister Avery may not even know. As for Auriana, I believe even after the transformation she'll still remain your mortal avatar?"

"Mommy's bedtime stories mentioned how the mortal avatar of a Celestial Princess was transformed into a Blood Demon, despite the new transformation outside of her appearance, teasing, and pure concentration of blood lust, she had remained how she was before for the most part?"

"I've even met her! They were like twins and her mortal avatar remained herself at the core, and she's the only Blood Demon I truly respect! I don't know much else involving mortal avatar transformations, so I can't say for all certainly"

Sabine adorably reassured, trying his best to reassure whoever was interested in listening.

Causing the young prince to then worriedly nod while Octavia curiously fed both him and herself as if taking turns. while Rory and Aubrey focused on playing with both Iva and the young prince when they could.

While for Octavia, she curiously listened to it all! While suspecting yet another conspiracy?!

Causing Maema having long noticed the curious glances and even pouts to then reveal her terrifyingly refined if not surprisingly gorgeous razor-sharp teeth as if perfectly uniformed and maintained.

Before then simply munching on a spicy fried chicken cutlet whole in but an instant as if done intentionally or to deliberately scared them for a giggle.

Before then gracefully wiping off her mouth followed by Asher's before then looking down to the happy Asher and kissing his forehead quite a few times.

Resulting in him ultimately melting under such kisses resulting in Octavia having felt both surprisingly impressed by her teeth and even challenged to then immediately do the same!

Resulting in both Asher and the young prince feeling that of utter bliss, unknowing of the reason to 'why' it all started.

Resulting in Iva pouting followed by Rory and Aubrey following Octavia's example and kissing Iva's adorably little cheeks while Emilia having noticed poor Sabine was left out gently kissed his forehead resulting in a surprising blush out of everyone's favorite Ancestral Prince.

Albeit no one truly noticed aside from both Alfina and Sura who had adorably done the same meaning now everyone was included in these adorable affairs!

All the while towards the end of the breakfast Sura had adorably extended the table, and prepared for even more seats causing the young prince and Asher to then happily help despite Sura's adorable pouts and her pride of being a strong independent Bos!

But she allowed it! If both the young prince and Asher were so excited to learn and help then she didn't want to rob them of this experience!

Resulting in her Sura adorably explaining the simplicities, elegance, and placement all the while causing both Asher's and the young prince's eyes to sparkle in a new light!

Of course, both of their eyes would adorably sparkle before, especially after learning 'anything', but what made this truly unique was that this was Sura!

And despite appearances, Sura was an amazing teacher! And ensured no matter how little the lesson, it would no doubt be enjoyable and even easier to learn.

Resulting in just that! Soon enough however after the adorable little antics and random filler, it appeared everyone had woken up much earlier than anticipated, resulting in Bradley and Colin making a surprise appearance.

Causing the young prince, Rory, and Aubrey to then adorably smile and Octavia to pout?

For Octavia, it was just a reactionary pout if anything else? Surprising Sabine after seeing Colin and seeing glimpses of his big brother.. only this time Colin was quite happy instead of radiating sadness much like his mysterious big brother..

Causing Colin to then curiously shake his head and continuing his passionate discussion with Bradley.

"Imperial Princess 'Galen' Vale Claret, was indeed our first pick? However, I suppose Gora is still not willing to commit to such a name. All the while, it seems the same could be said for other matters, such as where and when the wedding will truly take place?"

Colin curiously explained, resulting in Bradley playfully nodding, and Colin after noticing Sabine, Asher, and Maema to then surprisingly smile.

"Young Sabine, Avery had already mentioned you to me three years later after your birth through her letters, I truly hope both you and your mother are faring well"

"This should be your first time within The Kingdom of The Celestial Vale, if you have any questions involving magic you need only ask"

Colin curiously reassured, causing Sabine to then adorably nod.

"I went against mommy's suggestion and left for The Endless Abyss, she wanted me to come here first but I needed to explore you know? Thinking of Mommies, do you know of Asher's or Maema's? Mommy spoke highly of you and told me how similar you are to big brother"

Sabine adorably explained, all the while causing Colin to then curiously examine the two before then surprisingly nodding.

"Lady Aumara is indeed an interesting character! To my knowledge young Maema should be the oldest while as for her two younger daughters, I'm afraid I know very little of them. And as for young Asher's case, please don't take it to heart young Asher"

"However, Lady Aimee is an irresponsible enigma, while also an incredibly brilliant and wise mage when she so wishes. It's truly a shame that despite being an extraordinary mage she prefers the more chaotic paths of magic that are considered too dangerous for the majority of mages"

"But, despite this, I do hope she's faring well. She has always been quite pleasant so I'd imagine she would no doubt be a pleasant mother. Young Asher, if you have any or all questions relating to your ancestry or magic you need only ask"

Colin surprisingly confessed surprising everyone including Maema and Asher, resulting in both going pale for several moments resulting in Asher naturally repressing such memories and thoughts and adorably nodding.

While as Maema remained pale before then ultimately pretending such discussion had never occurred. The mentioning of such sisters came with its own trauma, a trauma she didn't need now.

Surprising Colin before then being informed of their situations by Celestine who had soon done the same for Emilia, Alfinia, Bradley, Bromley, and the mommies having not explained in full detail beforehand due to how truly delicate all of it truly was, surprising them all in doing so now.

And causing Colin to then surprisingly frown having essentially gotten even more details involving Asher's and Maema's traumas, before then reassuringly shaking his head.

"Young Asher, I do hope you're feeling well. From my knowledge your mother should be attending the festivities as soon as it hits sunset, she'd no doubt be quite happy to see you so you needn't worry. Thinking of such things, a young base human, who Lady Celestine had referred to my Academy, had sent me quite a few letters asking about you?"

"One hundred and fifty in the last three years to be exact? She's indeed quite interesting! My apologies, it seems I may have rambled more than I should have, if you wish you can speak to Lady Norna through this communication orb, or Lady Celestine if you're truly lucky?"

Colin curiously reassured, causing Asher to then excitedly nod and causing Lady Celestine to then reassuringly shake their heads while Sura just waited for who's gonna be a baby bully!

Resulting in Lady Celestine having wanted to surprise him with her later to then happily do it now instead! And soon enough Lady Celestine had done just that! Resulting in Norna finally making an appearance.

Norna looked to be fourteen years old, she wore what looked to be an elegant golden, white, and brown fusion of a gorgeous huntress attire and that of a refined academy uniform and boots.

All of which looked seamless and matched perfectly with her white stockings, and cute yet delicate features.

Complimenting her short blonde hair, delicate white skin, and blue eyes giving her both a surprisingly normal yet adventurously pretty charm.

Causing her to then without a second moment worriedly rush to Asher before then worriedly feeling his head, and examining his eyes, and after several moments of what felt like a very real check-up, she had soon tearily sighed with relief as if exhausted beyond belief.

"Three years.. and only one letter. Asher.. you shouldn't worry a girl like that! I doubt you could've even realized what could've happened in three years!"

"So much had happened, and I had to ask Lady Celestine for a blessing of youth on my fourteenth birthday! I was so worried you wouldn't recognize me if I hadn't! Even if I have an immortal lifespan now that doesn't mean I wasn't prepared to wait decades!"

"Every year was torture not knowing where you were or if you were even ok! I barely survived that palace, if something would have happened to you I wouldn't know what I would've done! I'm not a member of a 'Greater' Race I'm only human so even with these three years I've only managed to become a Highmage!"

Norn teary rambled.
