Rainforest - Frontier of the Afreda Region
A sunny afternoon with the cool air of the forest, Sebastian walks with Aron who is covered in mud for chasing his game animals taken by the forest wolves. The peaceful atmosphere of the forest they rarely felt made them happy.
"You're just there. Why are you chasing. The wolf's life was a herd, your actions were dangerous Aron!" lamented Sebastian.
"Yes yes... I'm going to the river first. This titip take it home," replied Aron casually as he threw his luggage at Sebastian.
Aron runs into a river not far from the hiding lodge and Sebastian enters the hiding lodge with the luggage on his back and in front of his chest. He thought about preparing their little party one by one while taking off his shoes.
"Fruit exists, vegetables exist, rabbit meat and wild chicken exist. Oh, we need to make juice." Sebastian said slowly. Then he greeted Miss Mariana and the two teenagers who were sitting casually in the living room. Seeing Mark and Lucas, who were his helpers, he began his party preparations.
"Hey, Mark! Mash these berries and then add water. You're also Lucas making water into ice the size of a dice, okay?" sebastian orders while bringing the harvest he got from the forest to the kitchen.
"Ready, Vice Chairman!" mark and Lucas answered.
They were busy in the kitchen making drinks and skinning the game meat. Mariana also wanted to help them but since she was only a disembodied spirit then there was nothing she could do except to encourage them.
"By the way, Miss, aren't you going to call Miss's granddaughter here?" asked Lucas who was curious about Miss Mariana's granddaughter.
"You mean Marni?" mariana answered immediately because she was amazed at the speed of Sebastian cutting vegetables.
"Yes, is it okay if we party without the granddaughter Miss? Will he not be sad and feel alienated?" mark is busy destroying berries with his magic.
"Ah You're right too. Let me telepathize him first..." Mariana realized the importance of the words of the followers of the Arkhaya clan, began to focus her mind to connect with Marni.

The magic portal appeared not far from Aron's standing position. He is ready horses to attack if only they appear in front of the enemy or muster. However, Aron's vigilance declined when the two teenagers he had already considered as his own children appeared.
"Sir Aron!" Yu Qin waved his hand then dashed towards Aron with Yu Gi walking leisurely behind him.
"Just come home this afternoon? You guys shopping using the magic portal all the way to the capital? Too slow? Tired of the latest makeup or fragrance oil from the Atelier store again?" ledek Aron who was walking while drying his wet hair.
"Hmmp, who said. Ah, but come to think of it! This is the day of the Atelier store's spring product exit! Arrrghhhh, I missed. Too bad..."
Nah!
Sentilan on Yu Qin's forehead was landed by Aron while waltzing into the house, "Later if our position is safe. You can shop as much. Now go in, hurry up"
"Hoiii Sir Aron, you are too cruel. Auh, Miss Mariana! Sir Aron was violent towards me huhuhu.." Yu Qin lamented when he saw Mariana welcoming them.
"God! The long-awaited bumbum is coming too! Where have you been! You know how long we waited for you, Heh...." Lucas flanked the flat-faced Yu Gi. Then Mark approached them instead of separating them but only came to snatch Yu Gi's luggage to take to the kitchen.
"There is a precarious thing going on in the capital relating to the Arkhaya clan." Yu Gi replied flatly but his telepathic voice was clearly heard in the heads of all of them including Mariana.
Aron who was looking for a cardboard game owned by him also stopped his search. He calmly ordered them to gather. As the leader of the discussion, Aron began walking to the dining table and sitting in a chair with the other members. Yu Gi and Yu Qin started to tell what they found some cities and capitals.
"Is this possible for your granddaughter, Miss Mariana?" lucas asked the ceplas-ceplos who was finally reprimanded by Aron, "Lucas, what a polite talk."
"It's okay, Aron. I'm not so sure. In the modern dimension that I explore through space and time, I have never seen the power of witchcraft turn people to dust. The maximum effect is to damage the organs, brain or nerves of the intended object so that they are frightened, stressed, angry, or feel themselves exposed to constant misfortune. Nothing makes an object end up in dust" Mariana said as she continued to browse through her memories.
Suddenly when they were about to comment with the other speculations, there was a magic fluctuation in front of them. They prepare for each other, through the eye code Aron gives a signal.
"Ma-marni?" mariana asked doubtfully and answered nodding by Marni. Marni walked towards the remaining empty seats.
"You changed?"
"Changed? I didn't even realize that I had just re-formed because of your call earlier" Marni Cuek said.
"Your facial structure is changing like your face in the modern world, but your eyeball color, hair color, and skin color remain like mine once did. It's as if you're really my granddaughter, Ooops sorry. You mean you're my granddaughter but like us, my granddaughter is so hehehe." said Mariana nervously.
"Maybe due to acculturation?"
"Ck. You think culture. What's with your vocabulary... Ah yes! Are you making people dust?" mariana asked after remembering what they were talking about.
"Em yes, I originally wanted to torture them with witchcraft but I was too lazy so I directly used time acceleration magic on them. I remember those humans coming from the ground then if we accelerate their change...."
"Ahhhh! They are finally dust!!!" yu Qin Sahut.
"I'm sorry to interrupt Miss, but is it possible to use such magic remotely? Or, Miss met them one by one?" ask Aron.
"You meet them one by one?! Heh! That's dangerous Marni!" Mariana is aware of the danger Marni is facing.
"Calm Grandma Mariana, I didn't meet them one by one. Just imagining it makes me tired" replied Marni lightly.
"Ah, so maybe doing magic turns people into dust and keeps lightning sounding for days at a distance?" Yu Qin tried to deduce all these events.
"But are you okay, Miss? That kind of magic requires a lot of mana energy right? Is your body okay? May I check on you?" sebastian's worried look at Marni.
"Don't overdo it, I'm fine. The blood of the Arkhaya clan has already been outlined as overpowering in magic and contractual talent," replied Marni but Sebastian kept his eyes on her with concern until Marni sighed, "OK, "Okay, you can check my health later. Satisfied?"
"Marni darling, don't be fierce. Sebastian is good."
"Ughs. Grandma, don't call me that."
"Here hug Grandma first...." Mariana began to hug Marni even though she actually joined her arms together as if hugging Marni. However, Mariana is only a spirit that can penetrate Marni's body.
"Stay-away from me!!!" Marni tries to get rid of Mariana but her hand instead penetrates Mariana without touching anything.
"Sorry to interrupt again Miss, but how do you do all these revenge sequences? How come you are alone and the enemy is almost 500 people with a third of them being aristocratic and imperial?" aron asked filled with analysis in his brain thanks to the data he received from Yu Qin and Yu Gi.
"I combined the time acceleration magic theory in Grandma Mariana's memory and the amateurish witchcraft theory I studied first, then made some small experiments to make lightning, artificial rain, echo sounds. After that I made the scenario as if we were making a sacrifice with the blood of the entire Arkhaya clan left so that it struck their minds that we had completely disappeared with our enemy," marni answered while remembering what she did a few months ago.
"Miss, you're so cool hohohoo.." Lucas said with admiration as he held out both thumbs.
"Hehehe... So, this hard work is worth celebrating. What if today is a celebration and self-introduction? I have not properly introduced myself and neither have you introduced yourself. Oh, he said you guys were having a little party too? How about being merged into one? Where's the food or do I need to go?" ask Marni who saw the dining table without food or even drinks.
"Ekhem. We'll serve him soon, miss," said Sebastian, glancing at the plain teenagers as if to quickly follow me into the kitchen.
"We will also prepare the dish first, Miss," said Mark, Lucas, Yu Qin, and YuGi.
