Causing her to then gently feel his head once more before then adorably sighing while both Rory and Aubrey worriedly stopped eating their snacks followed by the newly arrived Ayla and Mera while Stella and the others were encouraged to play with the others since the young prince was still very much asleep.

Albeit Elyris, Molly, and Octavia came back and forth while reassuring Stella and the others while Katie simply snacked her heart out with Blaire while Ayla chose after snacking as well and talking to Blaire and Katie to join Mera.

Causing Mera to then gently shake her head before then quickly checking up on the young prince who after kissing Noel's cheeks over and over again happily pounced into Mera's arms having missed her quite a bit due to her being busy lately.

The reasoning being quite simple, even if she wasn't an official mommy, she was now essentially in the same group if not social circle as Aldra, Marjorie, Kethryllia, and the others resulting in her fulfilling mommy duties, and doing so amazingly.

Her being a much older and wiser Aldra comparable to Aldra where it mattered resulted in the mommies and ladies of the royal family ultimately loving and getting along with her splendidly.

The first five month training session had definitely left a lasting impression, one that would include Annie, Amber, Molly, Ayla, Iva, and the young prince loving and trusting her to the point it was simply as if they had known her forever? Plus she was an amazing cook!

Of course Bradley and Silas were 'almost' as scared of her as they were of Aldra and Selphie; if they were upset, Mera was simply that kind of person. Plus it didn't help with the fact that she was a fusion of Aldra, Elfinia, Gemma, and Emilia?

While her appearance also said as much while resembling them all funnily enough, no matter the case those five months of training and her being the young prince's servant or rather simply a second mommy, resulted in such things.

Causing Mera to gently smile having felt she had unintentionally neglected him having also intervened in Aimee's slaughter of his guards, to put it simply Mera would intervene especially if there was a chance the children would see it.

Resulting in Aimee despite her anger reluctantly slaughtering such guards both cleanly and quietly until Selphie's intervention.

Of course Bradley, and Aldra and the others had gotten involved resulting in the family exterminations especially those within The Vale and other host kingdoms weren't targeted and even warning that they wouldn't stand for it, even Ayrenn resulting in it mainly being done within The Endless Abyss.

Unfortunately none of which truly mattered anymore now that such dreadful business had been done with, before then gently tapping the happy young prince's forehead.

"Forgive me little Auri, it seems I may have neglected my duties-"

Mera gently apologized, before then all but immediately being cut off causing the young prince to then adorably pout up a storm.

"Mera never neglected Aurel, Mera is like mommy s-so don't bully mommy Mera"

The young prince reassuringly pouted, causing Mera to gently sigh having seemingly felt worried for nothing it seemed, while to put it simply she was still very much adapting to her body and 'socializing' in general?

Mind you for all intents and purposes despite modestly calculating her age, she had instead chosen to confess how long she was truly sealed, while she herself had been born long before the first ever Dark Age.

Causing Ayla to then adorably pout, in truth Ayla despite her shamelessly adorable behavior wasn't an idiot, so after hearing from Aurea about his bloodline aspects she had decided to march over and fix her.. lover maybe? All she knew was that lovers were important! She didn't really care about the specifics.

Causing her to then shamelessly flicking both the young prince's and Rory's foreheads, Rory's because she liked her, before then hopping in Noel's lap causing Mera to gently sigh before then ultimately being cut off.

"Hmph! You can't hide from this Queen of Light! Mommy said lessons are finished for today but this Queen of Light will cure that fever! As your 'only' Queen of Light what kind of Queen of Light would I be if I didn't?! Death to darkness! And death to fevers!"

"Oh and mommy said I'm your aunt now like big sister Noel and Amber?! This Queen of Light has now been given yet another title! "

Ayla adorably proclaimed, surprising everyone and causing Ayla having no idea what aunt meant and assumed it was just another title to then adorably whisper into Noel's ear asking her just that, causing Noel to giggle her heart out while hugging her new shameless little sister!

Noel loved Ayla beforehand and even more now after she had became sisters, causing her after kissing Ayla's adorable little cheeks to gently nod as any big sister should!

Before then explaining it all surprising even the young prince having never really paid it any mind causing Ayla to adorably pause having realized Aldra was her big sister and Emilia was her Aunt or rather other mommy? Causing her to then shamelessly smile with pride before then remembering the 'fever'.

Before then adorably hopping down and hopping back up to quickly kiss Noel's cheek since Noel was a gem and an amazing big sister! Maybe she could ask big sister Aldra for tips and to see if she could squeeze in some allowance!

Unfortunately that will have to wait! That fever and whatever those bloodline aspects are doing are the real issue, for all intents and purposes she threw them in the same category as darkness even if she won't try to send them to the afterlife.

Causing her to then adorably nod before then whispering into Mera's ear surprising her and causing her to gently sigh before then sending mental messages back and forth with Kethyllia, Gemma, Aldra, Marjorie, Bradley, and Selphie since Ayla wanted to try to cure him resulting in Noel being suggested to tag along.

Causing Mera to then gently nod having approved as well since Noel despite her age was in fact very capable even in the eyes of Avery and Elfinia.

"Ayla, unfortunately the others will only agree if Noel is able to tag along. It's not that you're not capable enough, however taking sweet Auri while he's in such a state and doing so alone would no doubt worry us"

Mera gently explained causing Ayla to then shamelessly nod having predicted just that while Rory pouted and the other after kissing his cheeks and reassuring him rejoined the party, causing Mera to gently shake her head.

"Sweet Ayla, please do be gentle. And sweet Noel, I trust you'd take charge if Ayla attempts any adventures of hers? I'd imagine in sweet Auri will no doubt end up in a even worse state if such things occur"

Mera gently reminded, causing Ayla to tearily pout, Noel to adorably nod, and the young prince to then sleepily nod before then hugging Noel to keep his balance since he felt dizzy.

Causing Noel to then effortlessly pick him up since she didn't want him to fall and carrying him was like carrying an adorably empty backpack anyways!

All the while causing Mera to gently smile before then kissing all three's cheeks and leaving them with some reassuring words before then returning to Marjorie and the others to assist in watching over the children.

Causing Ayla to then shamelessly smile before then adorably grabbing Noel's hand and happily leading away! To where? The Celestial Garden of course! Mind you she could cure him anywhere but she really wanted to see it at night since flowers and leaves apparently glow!

Plus she knew he had never been outside when it was dark, outside of the balcony and survival training of course! Meaning this was new for the both of them and even maybe Noel?

In truth despite Ayla being Ayla she hated not being able to join him, she would have in an instant if not for him not mentioning it. Resulting in her shamelessly becoming teary before then realizing they were now near his secret garden before then becoming tearier and looking to Noel.

Surprising her before then ultimately being cut off.

"Bi-Big sister, why didn't that bully ask me to come with him for his survival training? Am I not his Queen of Light?!"

Ayla shamelessly whispered, causing Noel to then adorably shake her head and gently kissing Ayla's forehead and wiping away her tears as any loving big sister would.

"Aurel is still a baby, I'd imagine it was a spur of a moment idea since babies love the excitement? And Aurel loves his queen of light very much! Mommy and big sister loves her, so do big brother Bradley and big sister Selphie!"

"And I love you too! So please don't cry little sister, if you really want to.. all three of us can attend week long survival training together after Aurel recovers! But we'll have to ask mommy and big sister Aldra?"

Noel lovingly whispered, causing Ayla's eyes to adorably sparkle before then hugging Noel even more and waking the young prince causing him to then adorably rub his eyes before then immediately realizing he was in the garden! Everything was glowing and sparkled as if dancing fairies!

Of course there were some forest fairies however much like before they had yet progressed to be able to speak! Of course if they truly wanted to, mental messages were a given, but unfortunately most were asleep or enjoying the fireworks!

However, after excitedly examining it all he couldn't help but look back up to Noel.. she was even prettier covered in the colorful lights and fireworks, so much so that he couldn't stop looking up at her while both her and Ayla took a short break to look at the fireworks.

Causing Noel after noticing to then adorably giggle resulting in such qualities being all but amplified resulting in the young prince hiding his blush while Ayla enjoyed the fireworks.

Resulting in Aurea playfully sending Noel a mental message 'explaining' such things before then resuming playing with the others unknown to the young prince.

Causing Noel to then slightly blush having essentially been told that the young prince's thoughts were she was truly the prettiest and he couldn't wait to marry her, learn from her, and show off in front of her.

Which in truth was very much true but the young prince would never confess such things or add a certain flattery to it all due to him still being a baby in some areas. However Aurea didn't have that issue! Resulting in her going full out to the point Noel knew she was lying.

Despite her being The Crown Princess of The Elves and overall idolized much like her big sister, she was still very much modest! Her mommy, Aldra, Emilia, Elfinia, and many others were much prettier than her! At least in her eyes? And Aurel would never say such shameless things!

Even if she knew Aurel's and Aurea's situation and knew even more due to her experience and knowledge even at such a young age, she knew that Aurea was the pure concentration of Aurea meaning despite being the same person turned person, both weren't the same even if they were the same person!

She understood this more than anyone? She did have a Mortal Avatar after all even if it was a secret..

Despite appearances Noel did hide quite a bit, any crown princess should! To become a crown princess she had to be accepted and meet Elfinia's own unique standards, which changed quite a bit.

To be a crown princess, especially that of The Elves, the oldest ancestral race, idolized by all branches of the elves and loved by even the base humans and fairies and many more. Even Rory had to meet the standards since she never really stopped training, if anything she hid quiet a bit as well.

Being an Elf and a Celestial especially royal ones who became crown princesses meant she had to, while even elven royals marrying or being born into other royal families had their own trials, and Rory would have to do them all.

Hence why she keeps everything a secret and hides in Inari's Dreamworld. And hence why she visits both The Ancestral Worlds, something Celes and Selphie kept a secret due to her trials.

Resulting in both Noel and Rory being more or less in the same situation, the same could be said for the young prince's races who were practically similar in this regard if not more harsh, there's a reason why the queens and empresses were recommended rather than simply coming over to the young prince's dismay.

Causing Noel having translated Aurea's shameless words to adorably sigh before then finally noticing Ayla's teary pouts having felt left out after being reminded by that shameless Aurea!
