TOIRE in the body of a child, is located in a prosperous village, there are people living together, others working, children playing, it is a sunny and pleasant day. 
In the distance, along the way comes an army of strange people, asked for nothing, there was no negotiation, they just started attacking people, in the first attacked region there is smoke, they are burning the place, there is chaos and some who realized have gone to warn more inside the village to those they see, people run to their home or where they can hide , men take their field instruments to try to stop them, among them their father, many women with children, flee to the forest, TOIRE's mother is in the houses looking for children, to which she lost sight of him. 
These beings (some mounted on monsters) are burning and destroying everything in their path, one of the streets you see a group of boys running and are hit by a bomb, only a boy and a girl could keep running, one of them is TOIRE. 
There are bombings and monsters mounted by other beings that burn and destroy everything in their path, see children run and are hit by a bomb (minus 2, one girl and TOIRE is the other boy). 
There's a man running by and grabs them at 2, he's chased, they throw arrows at him until he throws it next to a fallen wagon. Inside it, someone pulls in and covers the children's heads, the man is dead. 
The roar of people running and screaming, bombing, beast noise walking nearby, everything is slowly moving away happens to be a terrifying silence, he remembers that he was crying in silence. 
After a while, the person who held them, speaks to them and uncovers them, is a mature woman's voice. 
Tenderly he says to them: Already, already, my children... from now on I'll take care of you. 
They realize the girl's dead, she's got an arrow in her back. 
They leave the wagon, there is destruction and very few people and children alive. You can see them walking and in the distance a desert in their path. 
A few years later you see the woman in bed surrounded by children and young people: never forget... how much I love them and take care of each other with the same love as her. 
She dies and a young man is the one who covers her eyes, it is TOIRE, he thinks: we love you... Mother. 
Everything fills with light and TOIRE wakes up. 
The first thing he does is try to run to KEKI, the man asks him not to wake anyone. 
He's watching KEKI worried.

Monday, 24th October 1442 EVE
"Let's head back now dear. We haven't spent time with the children since yesterday and we only got to be with them for a little while earlier. It would be best to spend some quality time with them since we had sort of abandoned them last night!" 

"I had also brought back some stuff for the children from the realm the other day and haven't got the time to show it to them."

"It's taken from those books meant for the young ones who just started their learning. If it's good I think I would like the book to be published for the daycare."

"At least they have a proper early childhood education. The book that I have gotten from the realm had a picture of a cute penguin against an orange hue background."

"Looks kind of cute. I can't remember who the one who wrote the book but I remembered the initials DK or something like that."

I knew Heather had made some copies of the books over in the realm the other time and she had me visualise the range of books that would be best suited for early childhood education.

I didn't realise that Heather would think of it right now since I thought her mind was preoccupied with other matters like the Dragon Boat and other matters as such.

"It's a swell idea, dear. You have them at our home or in the domain since I never have seen those papers that you had copied lying around anywhere else."

"Besides, we have seen the improvements that they would be doing for our Dragon Boat VI and it would be great to spend time together with the children since we had been missing some timeline with them."

"So, once you find the copies you made to be good, you are going to distribute it for the teachers in the daycare too?"

Heather nodded her head and gave me a thumbs up as a reply as she was rather busy with her thoughts as she guided the children out to the town square to wait for the passenger service wagon to bring us back to the house.

It was already late in the evening and I realised that my stomach was growling and protesting due to hunger pangs. 

I wished I had taken more than a bite out of the chicken pot pie that the bakers had made earlier and regretted when I just took a bite out of it instead of chomping in a large piece down, just like a Heather had done...!

"I heard that growling dear, let's stop at the Bakery to get some pastries or muffins and it would be good if they have the steamed buns as well," Heather recommended as we head down and fortunately, they do have the mini versions of the chicken pot pie which was sold in the displays.

We grabbed a few of that and waited for the passenger service wagon as we idly returned back to our house. The domain helpers were given a day off since they had overworked themselves and deserved a longer break.

After settling down after a hearty meal, I took the sheets of the copies that Heather had made and flipped through it. It seemed pretty good and this would be able to entice the children as they were in full colour and had bright images as well as alphabets and numbers too.

I saw a set of prints that she had cut them out and it seemed to be composed of a lot of numbers. There's single and digit numbers and there's even an instructional manual for the users to learn even before they start to play them...!

"What are those, dear? It looked rather exquisite and seemed to be something quite advances for someone to learn and play...!"
I inquired since I had not seen those before and Heather explained that this printout cards could be used as a learning tool and also a plaything.

On a single card, there were two sets of different numbers and Heather showed me how it was being played.

"See this card dear? One side is 9 and the other is 6." 

"Now we place it here in the centre as the main playing card. Now let's say the children wanted to play addition so basically they would use 9 and 6 together to make 15."

"So, the next card they would find would be 15 and joined them at the end here. See? The card 15 has another set of number beside it and it's 7."

"To create the next running number, it's 15 and 7 to make 22. So the player needs to find 22 from the pile. If there none, the player would take from the main pile until they got the 22...! It is simple, see?"

Well, it's rather simple for us to visualise and play but it would definitely be for bigger children who had learnt their basic math. Heather was excited as she showed our twins the simpler alphabets with the pictures on it. Immediately when the twins saw the images and the alphabets, they screamed out the answers — APPLES...!

Their pronunciation was so perfect and this was due to the exposure to the grocery stores and the introduction of all the fruits and vegetables available there...!

I was sitting there with the children and was sprawled in the floor of the living room on the woven may as we played around with the children as they shouted out the name of the image and alphabet.

However, when it comes to a small rowboat, the children chimed together and shouted — DRAGON BOAT...!

I can't help but laugh with them and it seemed that there's no way the children would correct it to call it a boat rather than the Dragon Boat that they themselves had christened...!

We had lost track of time since our house does not have our own mechanical clock so basically, from the incessant yawns that our twins were trying to stifle, we decided that it was time we put our twins to bed.

"Alright my little children, it's time for bed now. There's plenty of time to play tomorrow. Your Big Brother Clayton would be coming to take you to school, right? Alright, off to beds now. Mummy and Daddy would tuck both of you in beds when we come up later. Be careful when you climb the stairs, you hear?"

I called out to them and patted their bums as they were literally lying down and rolling on the woven mat as they watched Heather packed the educational materials into their own categories.

They slowly rose to their feet and walked towards the stairwell as they grabbed the railings and slowly hauled themselves up to the second floor.

I followed closely behind and the twins thought that I was chasing after them as they started to scream and giggle as they quickly climbed upwards and to their rooms.

"Haiyoo...! Be careful...! Don't run...!" the more I called out to them the more excited the twins became and they soon reached their rooms and kicked their shoes away all over the place.

I laughed as I picked their shoes up and entered the room where the twins were already under the covers...! When I removed it, they screamed and laughed again and treat it as a plaything for them...!

I laughed along with them and they seemed to uplift my spirits somehow. "Didn't you guys get changed already? You should change the clothes you know. Would you want to go and wash up first before going under the covers?"

Evidently, the twins did not change yet as they were still in their day clothes. I placed their shoes on the small stand near the door and removed their socks and clothes and they were in their nappies. They removed it themselves and I cleared their day clothes into the laundry basket.

"Next time you would be placing them there yourself, you hear? Right now both of you would be sharing the bed. The next time you would be in your individual rooms, alright? Big sisters won't be here all the time and you would need to be having your own rooms later on."

The children looked at me with their big round eyes as I took out their pyjamas from the wicker basket and handed to them. At least in their current age, they were able to dress and I felt so big-hearted seeing them dresses after I adjusted the right side for them, of course.

I tucked them into bed and then I decided to stay a bit longer and tell them of the event that had happened earlier. Their eyes got rounder and rounder as I told them of how their Mummy was traversing the Dragon Boat when I took over as I felt something was amiss.

The children oohs and ahhs when they heard me relate to them the whole incident and when it came to the part where j shouted my command, I didn't realise that my voice was a tad louder as I narrate the whole events.

It seems that I also got worked up and got involved in the storytelling as well and Heather, who was standing at the doorway giggled at the way I had related the whole incident.

Of course, I didn't include the part where the rangers and archers had sacrificed their lives. Even the part when I made the speech was utter bullshit since we all knew that the militia that lost their lives were actually all in vain. Not a single arrow was unleashed and all the 7 men that died on that very night was simply an unprecedented incident.

"Then the monster came in to check if the children were all asleep and tucked the sides of the covers. Once it's happy to see that all the good children had gone to bed, it slowly lumbered and walked away..."

"Coochie Coochie Coo... The monster said." as I tucked the children under the covers as they covered their tiny hands over their eyes to show the monster that they were already asleep or about to sleep. Hahaha.

"I think I could count how many times you had told the children stories before they go to bed, dear. It's just that we are not ordinary folks and destined to serve the community until our time ends. Hahaha." 

Heather spoke up to me as she hugged me from behind. She had all the soft contours on her body and it sure felt nice being handled in that manner.

"Yeah, it's just too bad we can't escape being a Macleod, can we? There's so much to do in the days to come and definitely we would need to see more improvements and more products to be rolled out as well since the main ingredients are here and being experimented on."

I can't help but agree with Heather since I kind of losing my touch as a responsible father but leaning towards a responsible leader for the community.

 It seemed that I need to balance out the work schedule for my self and spend more time with the children which I vowed to do it by today onwards.

Besides the town could be considered as self-sustainable and able to operate on its own except that I may need to inform the pioneers to engage other people so that they workload would not be a burden to them.

This I need to highlight to the pioneers when I meet them later on. As for now, the soft contours were inviting me back downstairs to bed as I covered the incandescent lamp with a drab and allowed minimal light to pass through to illuminate the room. I left the door slightly ajar and went downstairs with Heather in tow as she literally piggybacks on me...!

Since there were no domain helpers around that night, we were romping around on the bed and around the ground floor of the house like two cats who instead of hissing and spitting with each other, were instead laughing and giggling and at the same time tried to keep our noises to the minimum.

We do not wish our children to think otherwise since they themselves were trying to sleep and their parents were turning into monsters downstairs. Hahaha...!

After hearing Big Mom announce, various leaders of the underground world were shocked by what they heard.

They don't know if this is a big joke or what because for them, it's pretty impossible for a Marine to marry a Pirate.

Much less Big Mom's daughter, if this thing is heard by other people they will just calmly laugh and think it's only a joke.

But it's different, Big mom dont look joking, she seems pretty serious about wedding her daughter to that Marine kid.

"So it's true that Big Mom is really eyeing the genius of the Marine," Stussy murmured. She thought that it's only a baseless rumor but after hearing the confirmation from Big Mom, it seems that it's really true.

One by one, Big Mom's children start to come inside of the inner hall.

A woman from the Longleg Tribe with tan skin, blue eyes, and prominent lips with lavender lipstick. Like all long legs, she is exceptionally tall, Additionally, she has disproportionately large hands. She has long and wavy white hair that covers her right eye and stretches down her back.

Charlotte Smoothie the 14th daughter and 35th child of the Charlotte Family.

Next is a young-looking woman who has fair skin, brown eyes, short violet hair adorned with a flower. She wears a purple-pink bodysuit with matching elbow-length gloves and belt around her waist. She also wears a large, fluffy light pink cape with pink polka dots around her shoulders.

Charlotte Custard is the sixth daughter and 16th child of the Charlotte Family.

Two muscular men follow them.

The first is has mostly short, purple hair with a long, baguette-like bun tied at the back of his head and a pair of thin, pointed strands on either side that appear to spark like firecrackers. A very large scar covers his right eye and he has small wrinkles around both eyes. Cracker is shirtless and wears a kilt with decorative biscuits adorning it as well as shin length brown boots on his lower half.

"Thousand Arms" Charlotte Cracker is the tenth son and 15th child of the Charlotte Family

Next man has sharp, intense, crimson eyes, highly arched eyebrows, and prominent lower eyelashes under each eye. He wears a massive light ragged scarf that covers his mouth and reaches his shoulders. He also wears a torn leather vest with CHARLOTTE on the back that exposes most of his torso, dark gloves and pants, a belt with a skull-shaped buckle, and spiked boots with spurs.

Charlotte Katakuri is the second son and third child of the Charlotte Family.

And in the middle of them is a woman with pale skin and shoulder-length fuchsia hair, which curls at the ends. She has yellow eyes and notably thick eyelashes. She wears a red-violet dress, a dark purple feather coat, magenta gloves, and two horns on the top of her head.

She is the one that Big Mom chooses to wed to Xin.

Charlotte Galette is the 18th daughter and the 42nd child of the Charlotte Family

"T-The Big Mom's children."

"So that's the eldest child Charlotte Katakuri, one of the strongest children of Bog Mom,"

"There's also Charlotte Smoothie with exceptional leadership of all of them,"

"You can also take your eye at Charlotte Custard, she is still young but promising."

"Charlotte Cracker and Charlotte Galette is also here, it seems that there's going to big surprise today,"

The various leaders start whispering to each other, they want to know who's daughter of Big Mom will be going to wed the young Marine.

Charlotte Galette walk beside Big Mom, Big Mom look at them and said," This is Charlotte Galette the one I choose to wed to the young Marine Officer,"

All of them dazed after hearing what she said, they all know who Charlotte Galette is, after all she is pretty famous around.

As Minister of Butter, Galette has authority over Margarine Island in Totto Land, and as an officer in the Big Mom Pirates, she holds a high position in the crew and has authority over lower-ranking members.

"Can Xin  Fei from the Marine stand, I want to see my future husband," an arrogant Galette said while looking around.

All of the people around were shocked again this time for different reasons, they did not expect that the young Rear Admiral is actually here.

"I'm here," Xin whos eating at the back shout raising his hand waving at her.

Galette and the other Big Mom's children were attentive looking at Xin, they were pretty confused why this young kid can actually beat Kizaru in a match.

Smooth and silky white silver-haired, pure red like ruby eyes, long eyelashes, smooth white skin, and baby-like face.

Galette, Smoothie, and Custard felt that this kid had a good future, just from face value he can make anyone fascinate him.

The girls are sure that if they give Xin time to grow up, he will surely become a big heartache for every girl in the world.

"You are here Xin-kun," Big Mom excitedly said, and she walked to Xin to look closely.

She felt that her inner self was screaming excitedly, even though she felt that her devil fruit wanted to consume Xin whole for some reason.

But she stops herself, for her ambition in becoming Pirate King, she needs the strength of Xin in the future.

"Good, good," Big Mom constantly nodded.

"Your not only strong but also your good looking, you really are a perfect match for my daughter."

All of them inward said,' Shameless.'

"So Xin-kun, how about let's do your wedding today?" Big Mom said.

"W-What!? That's absurd."

"That's pretty fast, and it seems Big Mom is not joking,"

Stussy who was looking from afar felt nervous for Xin, she didn't know why she felt this but she wanted to run and grab Xin and escape from this palace.

Xin grab a  tissue and gently wipe his mouth, he then drinks the juice and said," No,"

"What?" Big Mom's face suddenly becomes bad, even her children become gloomy too.

"I came here for a different reason,"

"And what is that reason?"

Xin grin stood up in his chair and put one of his feet on the table and announced," Robbery!! Don't move or else I will going to beat you,"

"......" All of them

The quest to find hope, dream and true love


Accompany Xin to find an answer to his question and find the path to become a god


Cover not mine I will make cover later

Again, those few benefits weren't all that Carona was getting from this treaty.
.
Education!
No matter what academic facility it was, tuition was essential for its maintenance, teacher pay out and general upkeep of the facility.
Generally, there were a lot of things that went into their student fees.
Things like healthcare was a must for the students to have... especially the international ones, lest they fall ill and need treatment.
And in addition to that, money was needed for several bills.
Be it paying for electrical bills, field trips, teaching services, items like lab equipments, chemicals, chairs, and so on.
In short, all of these added to the cost of one's tuition per semester.
.
In general, each class within Baymard's public school... had children of various ages.
>Preschool (ages 3-5) for each semester
  ▪Baymardians: 1,500 BAYs
  ▪Treaty-signed territories: 2,000 BAYs
  ▪The Rest : 2,500 BAYs
*one should know that each semester was 4 months, so it perfectly evened out for paying the teachers and so on.
So each month, the Baymardians would have to save just 375 Bays (copper coins)....  so as to pay out 1500 Bays.
One could look at 375 Bays as $ 375 .
Sure, it seemed ridiculously small to save up and pay tuitions... but in this era, it was just right.
>Elementary School (ages 5 - 11), from Kindergarten, Grade 1... all through Grade 5.    
  ▪Baymardians: 1,800 BAYs
  ▪Treaty-signed territories: 2,650 BAYs
  ▪The Rest: 3,200 BAYs
>Junior High (ages 11 -15), from Grade 6 all through Grade 9.
  ▪Baymardians: 2,200 BAYs
  ▪Treaty-signed territories: 3,000 BAYS
  ▪The Rest: 3,800 BAYS
Of course after this grade, they would graduate... and that was it.
.
From this price list....  it was clear to see that Carona was still getting a good deal, compared to others.
With respects to pricing, Landon would charge students according to what class group they were in... and not their ages.
For example, elementary school usually took in children from ages 5 to 11.
But previously, there were students at 14... who didn't know how to write, and were placed back at elementary school.
So instead of charging them the price of a Junior high student (11-15), they would get charged as elementary students instead.
.
But no matter what educational level they were at..... at age 15, they were seen as adults.
Hence it was graduation time.
There was nothing Landon could do about it, as that was the coming of age period here.
Of course as time went on, more and more people would get educated..... as well as place their children in school at an early age.
And by then, things would even out on their own.
So Landon wasn't too worried about this.
.
Also.... the school also allowed to give out scholarships to the Baymardians, treaty-signed nations and the rest.
These scholarships were there to encourage and reward those hard working children.
And apart from that, there were student programs that allowed minors from ages 9-14 to work.
But they could only do very light jobs, if they wanted to aid in paying off their fees with a monthly plan.
One should know that apart from the nobles, peasants would also be attending this school as well in the nearest future.
So giving them numerous opportunities for success, was definitely a necessity.
.
Actually... even back on earth, children could work.
However, the amount of time they put in..... and the amount of work that was meant to be carried out, needed to be extremely light.
For example, they could dog walk in the parks, help in gardening local areas, window cleaning, lemonade stand selling and so on.
Children also made money as well.
.
Normally, an adult could work up to 8 - 10 hours a day.... but for children, it would be advisable for them to use 4 to 5 hours max.
Of course even though this era was completely different from the one back on earth, Landon had still chosen to stick to earth's principles.
But he knew that eventually, some children would grumble and ask for an increase in work time.
After all, children here worked just like adults.
At age 6 and even 7.... some of them were already serving at bars and restaurants for 8 hours straight.
While others worked at stables for close to 10 hours without sleep.
.
They were some who even worked by the seas, and carried heavy boxes daily.
Some also did babysitting, did house cleaning, and worked in the farms like pros.
So 4 to 5 hours for them, was like no work at all.
But just because they could do it, didn't mean that it was the right thing to do.
Working like that at a young age would definitely affect them when they got older.
Hence 5 hours per day, was the max that Landon could allow.
.
For the work they could do, Landon had already thought of few.
They could work as 'underage part-timers' at the Ranch.
There, they would be given a special badge.... that showed their underage status, as well as other special work documents.
And no matter what job they did, they would always have to do it under someone's supervision.
Anyway... at the Ranch, they could wash the horses, brush their hairs, feed them foods like apples, and even clean up their poop.
Provided it wasn't tedious, Landon didn't see any reason why they couldn't do it.
.
They could also work with Baymard's Gardening Company as well.
There, they could help gather up fallen leaves, plant flowers and even cut bushes from their client's backyards or work areas.
They could be posted at the park, other public areas, or even someone's private property.
But of course, they would never be working alone.... as everything would always be under supervision. 
They could also work at the Baymard's cleaning company... where they would clean windows, mop hallways, sweep rooms and so on. 
.
In essence, there were so many light jobs for them to do... so making money wasn't going to be an issue for these incoming international students.
And just so that their school work wasn't affected, they were only allowed to work on weekends.
Again, if they couldn't pay up all their fees at the end of the semester..... then they could apply for an extension payment plan, and work during all holidays here.
.
Generally, Landon wouldn't allow international students to stay within Baymard during the long holidays.
But if they still owed the school and wanted to work for their pay, then by all means... they could go right ahead and do so.
With this, Landon decided to change his initial stance on having students stay in Baymard during the holidays.
Now... he would allow them to stay, but they had to apply for a stay before doing so. 
Regardless, if they decided to stay..... their maximum work hours during holidays like, would be 25 hours a week.
(*5 hours × 5 days)
.
Tackling Student Visas, it wasn't logical to have students change visas every 3 months.... since they would essentially come back and study till they graduated.
But even so, Landon couldn't give them anything that went over a year.
Hence, he had decided that their visas would last for 1 year max.
And if they wanted to renew it again, they just had to prove that they had registered for next year's semester....  and that would be all.
What if he gave some people 5 year Visas, and then didn't bother to show up again?
Or worse, their Visas got stolen?
.
Everything Landon was doing, was trying to reduce identity theft to a minimal scale.
Compared to other empires that allowed all assassins, crooks and thieves to sneak or bribe their way into larger cities just like that.... Landon was trying his best to make this place a safe haven for his people.
Hence all these checks were damn important in stopping criminals from getting in.
Sure, some would definitely get in, but the numbers had to be few.
.
Moving on, 1 year was a lot compared to ordinary visitor entries.
Hence, be it international culinary students, or public school international students... they would have specific passport covers as well.
•All treaty-signed international students would have 'GREY' passport covers.
•And the other international students would have dark 'BROWN' coloured passport covers.
The reason why Landon truly wanted to differentiate everything.... was so that those  who worked at the port, would have an easy time identifying different persons.
.
If one saw someone with a Blue passport, they would know that this was a citizen from a treaty-signed territory.
Likewise, if they saw other Baymardians or even students..... they would automatically know as well.
Of course Baymardian students didn't need special passports.... as their RED colored ones were more than enough to carry them through.
Afterall, all Baymard citizens would be able to keep the same passport for 10 years.... before it would finally expire.
.
With all that said, as per the treaty....  Baymard had given educational discounts to Caronians if they decided to study here.

Well, now back to the synopsis....
Er-erhmm. 
...............
.
Chu Yi dies in a car crash and becomes Landon Barn, the illegitimate son of king Barn, ruler of Arcadina. Because his mother was a maid and the king’s greatest disgrace, his father had always despised him. The same could be said for his half-siblings. 

When he turned 15, his father had announced that the city of Baymard would be given to him, and would no longer be under the empire's control. It was a well known fact that Baymard’s lands were barren, and poverty stricken.... For god’s sake, this was banishment.

His deadbeat father had indirectly banished him from the empire.

Chu Yi woke up in a carriage, on his way to Baymard with a system

"So what if my father hates me? So what if I’m banished?.... I will turn my territory into a modern society"

.


Author-san: the book is a bit fast paced. But it be really be worth it. so just give it a try and you might be surprised.

Rushing down the hallway, Lorey leads Sydra to the room he had sent the children. Inside the room, one of the girls was sitting up in her bed and looking around. When she saw Sydra enter the room behind Lorey, the girl became startled and tried hiding under her covers.
"Hey, it's alright, Sydra won't hurt you," Marie says, getting up from the chair beside the bed and walking over to Sydra. "She is a little timid of new people, but it makes sense from what she has been through,"
"I can understand that, but at least she is awake now," Sydra says, stopping at the doorway and looking at the other two children. "They seem to be doing better,"
Walking across the room, Lorey sits down on the bed with the girl hiding under the covers, and begins petting the top of her head. "He is the man I was telling you about, the one that saved you. He really won't hurt you, so could you please come out," Lorey says in a gentle voice, coaxing the girl to slowly uncover her face.
"Hel... Hello," The girl says shakily, still looking at Sydra like he might lunge at her at any moment.
'Poor children, I can't even imagine what they went through,' Sydra smiles at the girl, before turning to look back at Lorey. "Do you mind following me into the hallway for a second, there is something I want to ask you?"
Getting up from the bed, Lorey nods and follows Sydra out of the room. "What is it you wanted to talk about?" Lorey asks, standing with her back against the wall.
"You know the man that was doing the experiments on the children, well, I brought him here," Sydra says, watching as Lorey's face becomes confused, "Don't worry, I didn't bring his dead body back with me. He has the power of infinite lives, so whenever he dies, he comes back to life,"
"So you captured him and brought him back to your palace? But what if he goes after the children again?" Lorey asks worriedly, looking back into the room.
"I put him in a room with no windows or doors, so it will be impossible for him to come after the children," Sydra says, "However, I plan on allowing him to continue his experiments, except I won't be giving him the children, or animals, to do with as he pleases,"
"I see, so then, what did you want to ask?" Lorey asks, slightly confused about why Sydra was telling her all this in the first place. If Sydra wanted to capture the man, he didn't have to let her know about it.
"I wanted to ask you if you know where I can find the Divine Cloud Sheep, the man said he will need their blood to continue his experiments," Sydra says, "He told me that they look like golden clouds, and are extremely difficult to find,"
"That is true, the Divine Cloud Sheep are incredibly rare, and a lot of people look for them because of their incredible fleece," Lorey says, "However, I don't know where to look for them,"
Sighing, Sydra prepares to head back to the dining room when the girl in the room calls out to him. "Excuse me, I might know where to find those sheep you were talking about," She says, causing Sydra to turn around and look back in the room at the girl.
"Jemma, are you sure?" Lorey asks, "You might actually know where one of those sheep are?"
Nodding her head, Jemma pulls a notebook and some pencils off the desk next to her, which were given to her earlier for drawing. Picking up one of the pencils, she begins to draw a small village, with streets and buildings being named. After that was done, the girl proceeded to draw a line that left one of the buildings and went through the streets, to the edge of the town.
"This is a map of Ascoil, the town that I and the others grew up in. If you follow the line on the map, you will enter a large forest, and in the center of that forest is a valley where the sheep graze," Jemma says, drawing three small sheep grazing on grass.
'That works, I can return the children to the orphanage and then follow the map to collect the sheep,' Sydra thinks as he reaches his hand out to the map.
"Wait!" Jemma exclaims, hiding the map behind her back, "If you want the map, then you have to take me and the other two away from the orphanage,"
Retracting his hand, Sydra sits down on the chair next to Jemma, looking at her seriously. "Are you sure you want that? Don't you have friends there, and I also don't have much water on my island that you and she can swim in," Sydra says, pointing at the other girl laying on a bed across the room. 'Of course, I can always make a lake and other things for them,'
"That's fine, we can walk," Jemma says, swinging a pair of legs out from under the covers and showing them to Sydra.
Shocked, Sydra turns to look at Lorey and Marie, who are trying not to laugh.
"She and the other girl can switch back and forth between having legs or a tail, but since they were unconscious they were stuck in the tail form," Lorey explains.
Nodding his head, Sydra looks back at Jemma, pondering her request of him taking them away, "To be honest, I don't have much experience with children. I also won't be able to stay here all the time, as I have things that I need to do," Sydra says, hoping to persuade her away from her decision.
"I could always help out with the children," Marie says, "Then you won't have to worry about them as much,"
Sighing, Sydra looks at Marie with a 'Really?' look, before standing up and walking over to the other two beds. "Alright, let's wait until these two wake up and see what they want to do, for now, let me have the map," Sydra says.
Smiling widely, Jemma pulls the map out from behind her back and hands it to Sydra. Leaving the room, Sydra heads into his makeshift library and looks through several books on different islands. Flipping through the pages of the third book, Sydra finally finds the island called Duepel, and the town Ascoil, which resides on the south side of the large island. 
'I need to figure out where this island is, but this book doesn't tell me how to get there,' Sydra thinks. Leaving the palace, Sydra heads over to the side of his island and looks down at the world below. The cool thing about the island was that it was always directly above wherever Sydra was on the planet, which meant he had a perfect view of the sea below him.
Scanning his eyes back and forth over the water, Sydra looks for any landmass that resembled Duepel and marked it out. Since he couldn't get a clear view of the entire island, and everything on it, he was going to have to ask Jemma if any of the islands he picked matched the one she came from. 
Returning to the room, Sydra shows Jemma the islands he found and asks her which one she thinks it is. 
"It is either this one or this one," Jemma says, pointing at two of the different islands on the hand-drawn map Sydra is showing her. The first one she pointed at was close to the place Sydra currently was, but the other one was much farther, and in the opposite direction he wanted to go.
"How do you know that it is one of these?" Sydra asks, glancing between the two islands for similarities. 
"Because they both have a long beach on the west side, and we used to go to the beach all the time," Jemma says, sadly looking at the other two children, "Why won't they wake up?" 
Getting up, Sydra approaches the bed that the boy is sleeping on and places his hand above the boy's head. Extending his aura through his hand, Sydra probes the boy's aura to check on his condition. "I can sense that the two of them are sleeping peacefully, and will wake up soon. You don't have to worry, just make sure to take care of them when they wake up," Sydra says, "By the way, what are their names?"
"Their names?" Jemma asks, looking confused, "His name is Ash, and her name is Moss, and they are my best friends," Jemma says, proudly looking at Sydra.
"I see, well I'm sure when they wake up they will be happy to see you," Sydra says as he walks to the door, before stopping and glancing at Marie. "Watch after them while I'm gone, I'll be heading back to the ground now," 
Leaving the room, Sydra walks through his palace in search of Haley and Lorey, who he finds in his training room. The two ladies are discussing what happened after they fell off the platform, and how Sam and Gram betrayed them. 
"Hey, it's time to leave now. We have to find a way out of the underground city, and back to where the other groups are," Sydra says as the two girls stand up and walk over to him.
"Good, it's finally time to head back," Lorey says, "We need to find Sam and Gram and pay them back for betraying us,"

Sydra Glass was reading a book when he fell into the path of a semi-truck going down the road. After his death, he transmigrated to the world of Phisloke, where people have evolved into mythical races and can use unimaginable powers.
Waking up in the body of a Nature Spirit, Sydra feels the urge to uncover the secrets of the world around him and become stronger along the way.

"Hmm, it seems I have the ability to take a portion of the powers of those I kill," Sydra says, feeling the aura of the Bone-Tree Golem enter his Arbor Sanctum and become absorbed by a root.
Standing up, Sydra activates his newfound power, causing an armor of bones to encase his body.

Three years after the last postcard by Eleanor.
       Park's wife,Cat gave birth to her first daughter,Selena - a name that both agreed after denying each other's. Park with excitement rocks his newborn daughter in his arms meanwhile his wife dozed off early.
        8 months has passed as Cat's still figuring out at parenting. Parenting magazines with the beautiful people and children on the covers,and all the bright toys and pretty living rooms and baby bedrooms in the photos inside. Real peoples on the covers,and stories about how real people are dealing with being a mother. Writers made it sound like this calm, easily managed, well-behaves problem that we will all handle rationally.
        Selena went through the crawling phrase and go straight to pulling up, cruising, and walking with the help of her grandmother who's fond of her.

Eleanor is the new girl in town, and with her chaotic family life, her mismatched clothes and unruly red hair, she couldn’t stick out more if she tried.
       Park is the boy at the back of the bus. black T-shirts, headphones, head in a book - he thinks he’s made himself invisible. But not to Eleanor. . . never to Eleanor.

Slowly,steadily,through late-night conversations and an ever-growing stack of mix-tapes, Eleanor and Park fall for each other. They fall in love the way you do the first time, when you’re young, and you feel as if you have nothing and everything to lose.
•—————————————————•

After going out of the room, Arjit and Rajni go and play with children for some time, then they see children are feeling sleepy, so they send children in the guest room for sleeping, Arjit tells her that he is going to check on Rishi, and he tell Rajni stay there with there grandchildren, she really like this both children, they are really well behaved, she can see Mihir try to not make mistakes, and try to  help as much as can, while Minu, try to mimic her mother and brother, such children who don't want them. After making sure they are asleep, she covers them with a quilt and go in their room where Arjit is listening Rishi and Meera's conversation, it is not intentional, they have hidden microphone is study, who's access only have to them, when she comes inside she sees Arjit's dark face.
  "what happened?" Rajni asks,
"Listen the way your son speak with others" Arjit show her recording, Rajni also get shocked seeing this, she never teaches her boys to disrespect woman, and she knows even after Rashmi cheated with Rishi he never talks with her harshly, she can't understand why Rishi can be so cruel with Meera. She decided to interpret them. But Arjit stops her, after all it is their problem. And they need to solve it.
                Here Rishi is really regretting what he says, he really doesn't wanted to hurt Meera, it just he gets too angry on all her behavior, this woman is too unpredictable, she never takes him seriously, but he knows he does wrong, so he sits in front of her, and try to wipe her tears but she slaps his hand, seeing her defensive state, he feels somewhat sweet, Meera is also cute he thinks. 
"Meera I am sorry if you want you can slap me, but please forgive me" he wanted to say more but he feels pain on his cheek, and after a minute he realized that Meera really slap him, he doesn't know what to say, he look towards the girl who is looking towards him with defense, he can't help but say,
"If you want you can hit me again..." again before completing his sentence he get one more slap. 
"...." He touches his cheek, and feel the pain, he can feel that Meera use full force while slapping him, here both Rajni and Arjit also get shocked, they never slap their child, forgot about the slap, they never give them physical punishment, and Rishi is someone who never gets physically beaten by someone, it is the first time someone acts like this with him, Arjit can't help but laugh loudly, this Meera is really really unpredictable, he looks towards Rajni and says, "Tsk, tsk, your future daughter in law, is violent" 
        Rajni also laughs, she knows Rishi is wrong, and she can understand Meera's anger, this time she doesn't mind her son get slapped. 
          Here Meera also gets scared, she forgot in her anger that Rishi is very rich person if he wanted he can vanish her from this world, she tries to touch his cheek, but he covers it defensively. 
"you can hit me on the shoulder, your fingerprint will leave a mark, I don't wanted to lost face in front of my employees" Rishi said while going backward. 
"I am sorry" Meera whispers. 
"I am sorry Meera, sorry I say mean words, I am just angry, I am really thinking about our children, I know I am bad person, I know I hurt you, but don't you think I also deserved a second chance"
"hmmm" 
"And I am also angry that you don't consider me option, is i am that worst, please Meera, I know I am not best but I will try to become the best husband ever, I know you don't love me, and I also confess that I don't love you, but can't friends also can live together, I will try my best to protect you and children, I respect you Meera, I don't and I never think that you are characterless, it just I am too angry, please forgive me" 
           Meera is not stupid, she know that Rishi is really sincerely saying this, she also understands that having a good backup is necessary, and talking about family life, she can only give her children the love of a mother, but with Rishi, they will get the love of grandparents, father, and also other relatives, she also knows that compare to single and middle-class mother, this choice is far better, She also got to know that her stepsister and other are trying to make trouble for Mihika, she can use Rishi as a shield, and what more, if she wanted to do something, she needs someone to take care of her children whom she can trust, so thinking all this advantage, she decided to accept this offer, talking about her self esteem, if her children can get good and safe future who cares. 
"OK, I think you are right," Meera said looking towards Rishi, she tries to smile, but realized that she is still sad. 
"Meera please smile, if you are still angry, please beat me again, but please don't be sad," Rishi said with guilt. 

"I wanted to go washroom" Meera say while trying to not see in his eyes, she realized that she feels attraction towards Rishi, and even after such insult she still feel attraction towards him, she tries to stand up, but because sitting for too much time, she can't control her balance and fall on Rishi, Rishi is also not alert, she falls on him, and he gets injured. 
"Meera, there is no use of breaking my bones, if you are angry,then beat me, but don't break my bones, but ok I will take any punishment," Rishi said when he see Meera standup with the speed of light. 
"are you injured, Is I am heavy?"
"Yes, you are" Rishi said while pinching her waist, 
"You...."
"what I don't even flirt"
"don't touch me, okay, and second I am not fat, which type of man you are, even can't handle a thin woman's weight" Rishi smiled knowingly, he know Meera is distracted now. 
"Okay, lest go towards the washroom, otherwise your nose start running" 
"Rishi...." Meera shouted, she really regretted feeling attraction towards this man, this man can only insult her, but anyway, she is the last boss now, if she doesn't make him regret the word he says, she will change her name, thinking this she feel somewhat good. 
          She washes her face and tries to smile, and thankfully her mood is also somewhat better now, she comes out of bathroom and asks Rishi where uncle and aunt, on which Rishi said he also doesn't know, they decided to discuss this matter of 'how to tell children that their father is Rishi', with them, and then take the decision. 
            Here Rajani and Arjit are very surprised to see their son's this side, they think their son is always a gloomy arrogant cold cero type person, but they realized that their son is also bastard and sweet talker. They realized that their life gonna become more interesting in coming days.

You know, this place isn't so bad once you get used to the smell and the slight possibility of getting malaria, if you accidentally cut your feet on your way through. After an hour of sewage-covered trekking, a purplish light glimmers at the end of the northern tunnel, when the path splits into 3 ways; East, West & North, at the center of the three paths, my father hesitates. "Is someone there?"

A voice asks, gentle, calm and wary. It comes from behind the purple light, taking the shadow of a man and right next to him, is a woman and two children. "We're from the town near Zenora!"

Mother yelled, followed by a shrill and loud reply. "SHOW YOURSELVES! You aren't taking my children, over my dead body!"

We approach the northern tunnel, to see about 20 families covered in bandages, hazmat suits and gas masks. gloves and boots. The man shining the purple light greets us, followed by his wife and children, who apologizes for frightening us. Frankly, I'm more frightened by the thought that soldiers heard the screams and are headed here right now.

"You're planning to flee the planet too?" He asks, a sickly voice escapes his mouth. In fact, I don't think I've ever seen a fellow human with such pale green patches on his skin and it occured to me, this man wasn't wearing any protection for the radiation on his way through.

"Why aren't you wearing any protective gear?" I ask, he turns his head toward me with a kind, but weak smile. "Oh, me? That's because I live here, haha.."

He coughs, almost falling face-flat into the sewage but his wife catches her. "Honey, please... rest. I'm sure these refugees can wait until you can guide them to the station."

"Actually, we can't. I estimate that it'll be 30 minutes, until the invaders grab hold of this place. We NEED to leave, as soon as possible and YOU should TOO." A strict-looking man says, his uniform suggests that he was a guard for a Skoupidian-dominated city, but something went wrong.

"I will NOT leave my husband here to die!" She yelled again, causing a conflict to ensue in the crowd.

She breathes deeply and sighs, shaking her head and letting her shoulders loose tension. Her eyes point toward her husband, who looks back and nods. "He's right. The station is just straight from here, there you'll find a couple of ships that were decommissioned during construction."

"Will it last until we get to a new planet?" A teenage girl, covered in burns and bandages but her face is signed into a calm, indifferent tone. 

"That... I don't know. But you can leave the planet, it's a better fate than not fleeing at all." He answered, I ask.

"Then.. why don't you join us?" I ask, my father nudges my shoulder and shakes his head disapprovingly. What. I'm sorry is applying kindness to people who need it, not needed in times like these?

The sickly man sighs, "I'm afraid I can't do that.. I have something I need to take care of, before I can go."

"What is it?" I ask, but he avoids my eyes. "I can't answer. Mell, take the children and join the refugees, please."

"No! You can't face that demon on your own!" His wife yelled again.

Demon? Wait... That presence from earlier. Is that what she's referring to?

"It's only a matter of time, before that beast goes on another rampage! My father entrusted this to me and if I die, I'll die fighting!" He screamed, throwing his arms up.

"Then let us join you! We can kill that thing once and for all, if we join together!" She replied, determination glowing in her eyes.

Together? Wait, It's happening again, like that time dad showed me the rebel's insignia.

My surroundings melt, distort and I find myself inside a ship. Alone. Suddenly, a series of screams ring outside and I run to push the gate open... To see darkness and smell the stench of blood in the air, I close my eyes and sigh, turning around- and facing a grotesque demon-like creature, an embodiment of fear for anyone who sees it. Everything flashes white, the whirr of a weapon in the background before I come back to reality.

I see the sickly man's face, who nods disapprovingly at his wife and urging his family to join the evacuees. "He's right. It's too dangerous, we'll go now, sir."

My father looks at me, eyes-wide along with my father and a few of the other refugees in the crowd. The sickly man smiles at me, life coming back to his face as he pulls out two daggers from his pockets. "Thank you."

He disappears into the darkness, followed by his wife but she stops and falls to the sewer floor. Heavy are her knees, as she covers her face with her hands and shaking her head in disbelief, followed by her children who hug her from behind. It's pitiful, but honorable, it makes me want to help the mother but she gets up on her own.

She turns sharply, eyes at me, before looking away. "Come on, let's go."

We walk straight from here, stopping at a staircase leading upwards into the station, where 4 ships are stationed and have become infested by cobwebs and dust. Many of the evacuees give a sigh of relief, jumping in delight and hugging each other. The mother from earlier steps towards one of the ships, staring up at its unused glory with a hurt expression in her eyes.

My mother taps my shoulders, whispering in my ear. "So, what came over you?"

"What?" I ask, as she whispers more. "You know, that woman's husband, it took you about 3 minutes before you let him go kill the beast. Fastest 180 I've ever seen.""

"I... Mom, I need to tell this to you in private." She nods, as I move towards and rest my back on a couple of crates stacked together near a wall.

"I've been having these visions, glimpses of the future in strange symbolisms. My head hurts everytime it happens, earlier, I felt another one and... everyone except me, was being killed outside. Then, I saw what the beast looked like and everything went white." I answered, my mom covers her mouth in shock and disbelief.

"You.. you said you,ve been getting visions. Do you remember the first one?" She asks, a sudden force in her tone, while asking me.

"W-why?" I ask, nervous.

"Because-" An explosion takes down a ship, followed by another one. Smoke covers the station in a chaotic blaze.

A large figure leaps out of the smoke, the same woman that dad bombed and left to burn, she's practically unharmed with a few minor bruises on her face and legs. She cranes her neck, landing her sights on mom with a twisted smile. "Well, well, well. Long time no see, Hells."

"You're supposed to be dead!" I yell, she turns toward me with a questioning look.

"You.. you're that girl, little Serg saved
HAH! Sorry to say this kid, but you're gonna need more than a bomb to take me down! But for these ships..." She pulls out a familiar weapon and smashes the legs of the third ship with ease, causing it to tip over and crash hard into the ground.

"HAHAHAHAHAHA! Oh, I missed this! Hey, Hells! CATCH!" My mom turns her head toward her as she picks up the wheel of a burning ship, along with the wings and hurls them at her with intense strength.

Mom jumps in front of the wheel and aims her gun at the incoming wreckage. Seizing the moment, my dad grabs my hand and drags me quickly inside the only ship standing, with the other evacuees who's joy was now replaced with heart-ending fear. I expected him to drive the ship, but no, he turned around and kissed me by the cheek and hugged me, long but short in his mind, he pulled out a bomb and another gun.

He whispers, "Don't forget what I gave you, it'll come handy in the future. Set your location for Balthros, please and.."

When he speaks, I could hear my mom's voice as well and with a smile, "Take care, starchild." He leaves. Screams from rebels, laughs and chaos ring outside, as an evacuee volunteers to steer the ship for Balthros, honoring my father's wish.

Suddenly, the ship bursts to life as we find our own seats, right next to me is the sickly man's wife who nods and takes my hand. "It'll be ok, kid. Have faith." She puts her other hand across my face, wiping away my tears.

I.. I didn't realize I was crying. This whole thing would've never happened if these rebels didn't come in the first place... Damn them... DAMN THEM! I'll make them pay, all the pain that happened today will be repaid. I'll make sure of that.

Mom and dad, Sergio and Helena, also known as 'Serge' and 'Hells'. Parents who took me in and told me their story, I won't forget and these enemies.. they'll regret everything that happened today. Starting with this trip, we'll be able to honor your sacrifice. I can only hope you two will be alive, when that happens.

As the ship begins to lift, a force pulls us down and a panicked voice yells. It's Ceptaria.

"NO! I won't let you escape the second time, now that I know what you are- GHHKK!"

"Oh, shut up. Let's bring an end to the past, shall we?" Mom replied, calm and smug, followed by Ceptaria's screams and an explosion from behind. The ship manages to hold on and launch into the sky quick enough to avoid detection.

In space, the pilot presses a series of buttons, before saying. "Alright, you can breathe now."

"We're on our way to Balthros. Estimated time is 2:00 hours in hyperdrive." He said, upon closer inspection he's the same dude in the uniform back at the sewer.

"200 Hours!?" A voice yelled from behind me.

"No, you idiot. 2 hours, it's a military thing." The girl from earlier, the one with burns replied. Before drifting off into sleep.

Speaking of sleep, that's probably a good idea.

Darkness covers my sight, as my body loses tension while I drift further into slumber. Recalling everything that's happened from dad showing me the rebel bomb, to mom holding Ceptaria back. It made me gain a new perspective of what they went through during the war, still, a question lingers in my mind.

These rebels have returned seemingly out of nowhere, could they be trying to find Cassiopeia's Comet? Again, seriously? More importantly, why do I need this key so bad?

In a snap, my life was thrown off orbit and now I'm at risk of colliding with something that could destroy me or I could destroy, the only thing holding me back is how I'm going to deal with all of this. It's all so confusing-

*BAM

What?

"Wait, we come in peace! I swear on the Skoupidian gov-" He falls to the floor in front of the pilot's chair. Blood leaking from his head, as a vacuum forms from the window crack that the blast hit.

I open my eyes, panic covering everyone's face. As the ship turns into absolute chaos, it falls into Balthros's orbit and gains momentum from the gravity, everything is burning up. No.. NO!

I REFUSE! Suddenly, everything fades to white.

Australia has begun cracking down on the importation of adult goods from Japan, mainly their comics. This is due to how certain taboo topics containing family members and children are often involved. 

Even the possession of such anime images containing children could warrant an arrest, such as in the case of a 52 year old man from southern Australia who was given a suspended jail sentence back in 2015. There are also numerous other cases that can be found online even involving years of jail sentences.

"Lolis" are also completely illegal in Australia and have been since quite a long time. There is a zero tolerance policy in place which also covers the gray areas. Things such as flat chested women or just too young looking adults.
