Otherwise, you can find another savior.

Besides, no one in the Rain Clan has any bad intentions, they just tell some innocuous lies occasionally.

It is too redundant to even distinguish the true from the false.

That's why she made herself a pair of glasses like this.

But when she wanted to detect lies, the glasses were of no use.

"Speaking of this, Tianxi is really a strange person. He never lies to me at any time." Jian seemed to be thinking about something.

It is precisely because of this that her whole heart continues to move closer to him.

"What's so strange about this?" Xi Jian leaned down and looked into Ash's eyes. "I won't lie to you, nor do I want to lie to you. That's all."

Then he put the glasses back on Jian's face.

The warmth of her fingertips left her just within reach, leaving her feeling unsatisfied.

It's just rare that I recently discovered that when I interact with him like this, my heart doesn't beat so fast. Instead, I feel a sense of lightness in my body and mind. The originally dull atmosphere has unknowingly become refreshed.

"What did the clan ask you to do?" Jian asked, shaking his feet and looking up. Then he saw him turn around and pick up the three-layer box on the chair.

"Didn't I hear you say before that our clan's resources aren't very abundant, and compared to other clans in this region, we're relatively poor," Shiomi said. "I'll do my best to help the clan improve this aspect."

Jian was quite surprised, and she also remembered that Xijian had demonstrated to the princess the ability to make fruit trees grow right in front of her.

The only thing she was sure of was that it wasn't magic.

The sensible ash never inquired about its nature.

She could also see that the power was not harmful, but rather gentle enough to save the lives of countless suffering people. It was a huge miracle that gave new life to the dead earth and even to life.

"Thank you." Jian thanked him from the bottom of his heart.

She could see that the atmosphere in the clan had improved a lot recently. Knowing that there would be a good harvest this year, the fairies in the clan also had some new expectations.

If he is willing to use this power, the dream that has not yet taken shape but is already deep in his heart may become more feasible.

It is not about bringing Britain to an end, but about starting over, saving the fairies tormented by the consciousness of sin, and building an "ideal country".

Before that, you have to share this idea with him and let him know.

Whether we can reach an agreement and whether we can share the same ideals are all issues that will arise after that.

"We'll talk after I say thank you. I'll use the kitchen here for a bit and try my best to make some snacks." Shiomi opened the box. "After all, this is a foreign country. There are many things you're not used to. I don't know if the taste will satisfy you."

It was a three-layer food box filled with various hot snacks.

He closed the book, picked up the snack on the plate, put it to his lips and took a small bite.

The sweet taste and soft texture were more delicious than any snack she had ever eaten in the Rain Clan.

"It's so delicious..." Jian's eyes sparkled because of the delicious taste.

"That's great." Xi Jian smiled warmly.

Facing his extremely warm smile, Jian's heart was immediately filled with joy.

She naturally took Shiomi's hand and asked him to sit down and taste his achievements with her.

Chapter 12 Sunny Day

Although it rains constantly in Orkney, there are also sunny days.

On days like this, Ash would practice martial arts outside with Shiomi. As the training progressed, her spear skills gradually became more proficient, and she could fight in a professional manner.

This kind of activity often attracts curious clan goblins to watch the fun.

However, practice is not a performance and is not very entertaining. Even if the fairies are interested at first, most of them give up after watching it a few times. Only Vivian still comes to visit Jian from time to time.

After all, she used to stay quietly in the library reading books, but since Xijian came to the Rain Clan, she has become more and more outgoing, and even learned the skills of hand-to-hand combat.

The same is true today.

"Don't worry, just go for it." Xijian was holding a gun with most of the gun hidden behind his back, making Jian a little confused about his intentions.

He once said that the hands are the "two stars," the shoulders and chest are the "distant mountains," and the elbows are the "peaks and valleys." When facing an armed opponent, one only needs to pay attention to these three areas. These three subtle movements conceal almost all the potential for killing.

But now, Jian had no way of judging the signs of his movements from these three points.

Especially since he had just boasted to Vivian that he would be able to hit Shiomi today and help him realize his wish, which made Vivian nervous about the competition.

"Having said that..."

Ash narrowed his eyes.

She didn't wear glasses during training, but her fairy eyes could see through the truth and understand the essence of magic, but they could not predict pure skills.

"It's not impossible to continue this stalemate. We can cultivate our patience for the battle. But then it will be dark." Xijian looked up at the sky with a hint of regret. "I wanted to take you to a nice place."

Hearing him say this, Jian's mind moved, and at the same time he seized the opportunity when he looked away from himself.

"Then I won't hesitate." She smiled confidently, and before he could look away, she suddenly took half a step back.

It was not to create distance, but to enter the water mirror that had opened instantly.

During the confrontation, she was ready to unfold the water mirror, but she hesitated because she knew that Shiomi would definitely notice it.

Should I attack directly or use magic as an aid?

Now I finally have the chance.

"Oh!" Shiomi sighed.

The gun hidden behind his back turned in accordance with the movement of his hand, blocking the attack from Ash who appeared from behind.

Knowing that it was impossible to succeed in one strike, Jian used the reaction force of the weapon's impact to retreat again.

When Shiomi glanced back, she had already merged her figure into the water mirror for the second time, appearing right above Shiomi.

She swung the wooden spear in her hand heavily.

Despite the crisp sound, the weapon still failed to hit his body and was blocked by his wooden spear.

“It’s not over yet—!”

Jian's envisioned attack method was divided into three parts, but he didn't expect that the second attack would still be fruitless.

In a split second, Jian decisively chose to use the impact force to retreat again, wanting to retreat into the water mirror, but found that his body did not do so as he wished.

Her feet were caught.

"That's a great idea, that's how it should be." Xi Jian looked at her with a smile, "The only flaw is that it's not fast enough."

After saying that, Jian was pulled down from the air.

"Hey!"

She let out a scream and fell down into Shiomi's arms.

"Let's start over." He smiled comfortingly.

"Really... at least let me finish the third part." Jian had gradually gotten used to being hugged by him like this, and simply started to act coquettishly in his arms.

"Can I ask about the ideas for the third part?"

"I'll just bombard you from behind with a surge of magic power." Ash said with a look of displeasure. "I'm sure I won't hit you anyway."

"You'll hit it eventually." Just as Xijian was about to put her down, she suddenly hugged Xijian's neck, as if she wanted to stay like this for a while.

Xijian was naturally happy: "Don't forget, there are guests here."

Then, a series of cheerful applause rang out. Vivian said with a smile, "Alright, alright, don't bother me, just watching the fun. If you want to flirt, please continue. I won't interrupt you."

"Well……"

Jian had indeed forgotten about this, and his face turned red after being amused by Vivian's words. He quickly covered his face with his hands.

She would rather try to cover her ears and steal the bell than come down, and Xijian was so touched by her cuteness that he hugged her tighter.

"Don't embarrass yourself by your own behavior," he complained.

"I'm surprised too. Jian, who's always been sensible, always acts recklessly because of the sage." Vivian looked at Xijian, then at Jian, who was covering his face. "Humans really are incredible."

"That's not the case—" Jian quickly put down his hands and argued with Vivian.

"Then I don't know. Anyway, you look happier than before."

Vivian laughed cheerfully a few times, and without waiting for Jian to reach out to fight back, she walked away with light steps.

"What a wonderful relationship." Xijian said with emotion.

In the legends of pan-human history, there is a saying that "Vivian" and "Morgan" are two sides of the Lady of the Lake.

But in the history here, they are two different fairies, but close sisters.

"But lately she's always been saying things like this to bully me," Jian said. "She wasn't so mean before."

Then she also concluded that the responsibility was indeed on Shiomi.

Who made her fall in love with him day by day, the man who seemed to have fallen from the sky and came to her side?

Perhaps she was deeply attracted to him from the moment she saw him for the first time.

"Okay, don't be angry." Xi Jian tried to reconcile with a smile, even though she wasn't angry. "Didn't I just say I was going to take you somewhere nice? Before that, could you please close your eyes?"

"So mysterious?" Jian closed his eyes obediently and looked forward to it in his heart.

Following his footsteps, she could hear herself moving away from the clan and gradually arriving on the plains.

You can feel the wind blowing in from the sea and smell the unique fresh scent of the earth after the snow melts in spring.

But soon, she found that what surrounded her nose was no longer the smell of soil and weeds, but a refreshing fragrance.

It didn't come from Shiomi's body, but was spread all around.

She followed Xi Jian's movements to put her down and stood firmly on the ground, but still kept her eyes closed.

"Can I open my eyes now?" She was now looking forward to the scene before her.

"Anytime." Xi Jian smiled softly beside her.

Facing the spring breeze, Jian opened her eyes and what came into view was an endless sea of ​​flowers, with the floating green and flowing red colors surrounding her feet.

This is a sight you can never see in Orkney, in the Land of Rain.

It's like a paradise homeland that I've known existed for as long as I can remember, but to which I've never been able to return.

Chapter 13: Sea of ​​Flowers

In the fairy kingdom, flowers are not difficult to see.

What is rare to see is the endless sea of ​​flowers in front of you.

It's not just Orkney in the north where it rains all year round and the winters are even colder, but the same situation is also seen in the British mainland.

The goblins might know, but Ash only has a rough idea.

The very existence of this island is a kind of distortion, so even if it is possible to live on it, something will be missing.

The biggest feature is that the flowers that are most closely related to fairies basically have no signs of growing in clusters.

The flowers preserved in the vase in Jian's library were also the ones she accidentally discovered in the forest before the arrival of winter last year, and she transplanted them into the vase along with the soil.

Thanks to Ash's magic, the flower did survive the winter, but by the end of winter, it was basically losing its vitality.

Shiomi just touched it casually and brought the flower back to life.

During this period, he used the so-called "magic" to bring the Rain Clan products that could provide the fairies with a good harvest.

Therefore, Jian was not surprised by the scene before him on a rational level, but he completely lost his composure emotionally.

Under the ever-changing dusk sky, Jian's gaze was filled with a sea of ​​flowers that surged into her vision like a tide. The wind blew across the vast plains, and countless flowers swayed in the breeze, red and green dancing in the air, forming layer upon layer of waves.

She stood there awkwardly, feeling a soft touch from under her feet. Beneath the sea of ​​flowers was lush green grass, which made Jian almost want to run and roll around here.

But she was also worried that she would break those beautiful flowers that she couldn't bear to pick, and that would waste all of Shiomi's careful preparations.

"Well... don't you like it?" Xijian asked hesitantly.

"No, I like it very much!" Jian turned around and answered him forcefully, with a glint of joy in his eyes. "It's just...it's just..."

"Just?" Xi Jian was puzzled.
