Chapter 310 Grandpa, Grandma, And A Fairy
In the Astral realm, shining with countless small spirits, a fountain twinkled with its fabulous lights.
The garden this celestial fountain stood was just as gorgeous as this and Fay creatures, as well as small spirits, roamed around there, happily playing and dancing with cheerful expressions.
Some distance above the special bunch in this garden, two young people in their astral forms were looking on the other side, at the two older people who were also in their Astral forms.
But, unlike the two of them, these two, who had just come out of the house, looked far more special...
Their soul bodies were far more clear and more detailed than these two.
The older man, who looked like a personification of the old era's noble knights, was wearing heavy silver armor and a strange blue water current was surrounding his body.
The older lady, who looked no less than a goddess, had long blue hair which seems as though the waves of the ocean, flowing like actual water.
She looked far more fabulous than the girl and both of them were standing with a charming little fairy.
Tiny body size of a normal human's palm, her body glowing in a bright pink light same as her clothes and hair, wearing a cute tiny skirt and dress with some cute sandals, her long hair braided in two ponytails, she looked at two young ones with her silver eyes.
Her eyes were still shining with excitement while looking at them. A radiant smile was also plastered on her face.
The two older ones were confused but, as soon as they saw the two young ones, they looked at each other, sighed with a relieved smile, and then... the armor around the older man's body disappeared.
It was replaced with a casual outfit just like the lady, but the blue current of water was still surrounding his body.
Both of them then looked at the two young ones with confused gazes, questioning how they can be there.
The old man, who looked like a middle-aged man in his prime, far better than even many normal young adults, was holding the gorgeous lady's hand, just like how the two young ones were.
The boy and girl were expecting their arrival, but the two of them who just came out were more in a battle form than a normal night walk.
They were floating in the air right now and in the moments this area had fallen silent, the two older ones had concluded many things after observing these surroundings.
And... now there was a proud expression on their faces as they looked at the boy and the boy can't help but smile weakly.
The girl had the same expression as them, as she understood that they already know what was happening there.
But, before any of them could say anything, the fairy who had been confused all this time by their actions flew before the older one's face and pointed towards the two young ones.
And the older ones understood her without even her saying anything at all.
They first moved to the place the two young ones were and looked at the boy with an even more proud, shocked, unbelievable look.
They were older even with this spectacular appearance but, this young boy of theirs was actually just young.
Entering this realm was something even some [Rank-6] knights couldn't do.
Just entering the Astral realm required a tremendously powerful soul but, what this boy was doing right now was beyond that.
He was strengthening the girl's soul as well as grinding the soul energy to stay in this state and maintain it.
This was something even few of this old man's rank, few [Rank-7] knight kings or (tier-9) elder mages could do.
This already meant that he was far stronger than what they had thought before and knew about the world even better than maybe themselves.
They genuinely didn't expect to see them here, not when their long-time friend just barged into their room and instructed them to quickly come out.
They were ready for battle, but definitely not to see the two of their grandchildren who they left alone for tonight.
Their dear grandson who had just returned to them after these long years and the pitiful child that had lived with them for some years after an unbearable life.
And the two of them were now together, with each other, bound by some good fate.
They left them with each other for the night, not disturbing their private time.
Two of them could see these two young ones were doing great as their bodies were on the ground, with his head on her lap, while their souls were now in this world full of wonders.
When doing what these two were doing, bringing someone who wasn't strong enough to come there on their own, both parties must have a selfless belief in the other party for it to actually work.
And they were doing it. This means they were doing well on their own.
It was good to see the happy smiles on their physical faces but, they also wanted to know the reason their friend brought them here like this.
They were looking at him and their little friend was also looking at him, excited about something she had longed for.
A golden magic circle of her own size that looked strange to their eyes appeared before her tiny self... as well as above every one of their heads.
This was something strange, but the boy knew what she was doing just from this familiar magic circle.
[[ "Fairy connection. Wow… actually. A spell that connects people with a common communication line and everyone can communicate with each other as long as two parties know the language.
A difficult fairy magic that's too difficult even while being only a mid-level spell.
Since ancient times, this spell is used in important discussions held in the Astral realm and everyone is thankful for fairies who sacrifice their life force just for the sake of others by using the spell.
Ast sure is amazing to know such a difficult spell~!
So this was what she meant when she said she will finally be able to communicate with you two." ]]
[[ "You are more amazing to actually know stuff like that. Even I can't tell from just the look what spell this is. And those Astral discussions... you actually know far more than I thought, child.
Now I'm certain you know even more than me... which is absurd considering you are actually just a soon-to-be twelve-year-old.
Plus that bow mark on your chest... I don't even know how that is possible.
But... you actually know fairy tongue? How...?" ]]
His grandfather was shocked just by the fact that he knew all these things and was able to do what he was doing right now but, it was even more surprising to actually know a language that was close to impossible for other species to learn.
It wasn't even a language in some people's point of view and just a senseless ringing sound.
But their grandchild, this young boy actually knew the language.
It was shocking and unbelievable but still amazing.
The fairy herself was more than just excited and this boy had surprised them more than enough in these past few days that they ultimately just accepted the fact that their little young boy was just that amazing.
And at his question, the boy had just smiled warmly at them, expressing that they already knew just how he could know such difficult language.
And they nodded helplessly, already knowing all this was thanks to his amazing master.
They didn't say anything much about this thing.
They knew their strong little grandson was in the end just a normal person with deep emotions. The agony because of close ones' loss being more powerful than the other pains of the world.
The magic this little fairy was casting was almost complete too so, they just nodded while looking at each other and just waited for the magic circuit that was actually connecting all the magic circles above their heads to finish the connection.
This took a while longer than the casting of normal high-grade magic spells, but, after some time the two couples had privately talked with their gazes, the magic finished and a golden light wrapped the fairy.
And after that… all of them heard some tinkling sound along with a unique, young, thin voice.
[[ "H-hello?" ]]
