Apparently, this was supposed to be a surprise to scare us but Celeste ruined it for Mist.

"Celeste it was supposed to be a surprise!" Mist got angry.

"Hahaha, sorry, it was too obvious." Celeste sighed.

Mist quickly forgot her anger as she saw the enormous city in front of her, her four eyes opening wide in shock and even her cross-shaped mouth opening and showing the sharp teeth.

Usually she would look like she has a human-like mouth for the most time, as she can keep the other upper part of her mouth shut, but sometimes when she\'s eating something big or surprised about something, she opens her mouth wide open, showing the sharp teeth inside.

I pity the bread she devours every morning.

"Sure, you girls can stick with us if you want, you\'re already part of the Team!" I said pridefully.

I had already considered it for a while now and decided to let Celeste and Mist stick with us. Celica can do if she wants to, but she spends way more time with her mother than anything. While Celeste and Mist were rather independent and adventurous, perfect for our party.

Of course, Celeste\'s got the whole drama of her past going on but we kind of settled it up and she\'s slowly making up for it. I think that as long as she keeps working on herself and in trying to be nice and different than before, things will result in a nice friendship.

"Eh? We never discussed this!" Said Aquarina.

"Wait a second they\'re part of our Main Party, the Hero Party?" Asked Zack surprised.

We called our party the "Hero Party" some time ago. It was a name we wanted to decide. Because we were going to stick together until we grew up into and became Adventurers to explore the world and maybe save people, and two of us are blessed by gods, so we are practically a Hero Party anyways. Zack was given the title of "Honorary Hero" despite not having a blessing.

"Yeah! I am the Leader so I get to decide." I laughed.

After all, they decided long ago I had to be the leader because I was the most charismatic and the strongest, so they cannot come to me crying later about my decisions.

"It\'s not fair if you don\'t ask us…" Aquarina and Zack sighed together.

"Aw, come on, don\'t be rude now…" I sighed.

"Sniff… You don\'t want me to be in the party?" Asked Mist. "I\'ve been practicing more magic… I thought I could be welcomed…"

"W-Wait, not you…" Sighed Zack, petting Mist. "You\'re welcome here of course!"

"Uwah…!" Mist got happy rather quickly, changing her mood in rather big swings. "Thank you Zack! I\'ll heal you all you want! Then we marry!"

"Sure, sure, you can- Wait what?! No, that\'s not-" Zack got embarrassed out of the sudden by Mist strange proposal.

"Hehehe, I was joking!" Laughed Mist. "There\'s no way you would want to marry me… I\'m ugly after all, haha…" Mist seemed slightly depressed deep down.

"Y-You\'re not ugly… Aw chucks, come on, don\'t get like that now…" Sighed Zack. "Let\'s be friends for now, okay?" Zack comforted the little Mist. "You\'re someone reliable, that\'s for sure."

We stopped our discussion and doing anything we were doing, even our parents and Ninhursag looked at Zack interact with Mist, they were way too cute.

"Zack…!" Mist got emotional. "Sorry for saying that, I\'m satisfied with being your healer!"

It was rather easy to make Mist happy with some pretty words, her mind worked very simplistically.

Zack was petting Mist\'s head and caressing her fluffy hair until he realized we were all looking at him interact with Mist.

"Oh my, you two make a beautiful pair." Celeste said, touching her chest as if she was moved.

"You\'re made one for the other!" Aquarina laughed.

"That was so cute! Oh my god…" I felt like I was melting.

"C-Cut it out!" Zack angrily said, crossing his arms.

"D-Don\'t bully Zack!" Mist said angrily, pouting cutely.

"Aw, now she\'s protecting you." Said Celeste with a cocky smile.

"Ugh, I thought you changed but you\'ve still got that personality of yours…" Sighed Zack.

"Come on kiddo don\'t get it personal now." Celeste said.

"Now, now, kids, we should get moving."

We were interrupted by my mother as she saw everyone was already outside the airship. Aunt Aina quickly led us towards the entrance of the airport.

"Alright, we are way too many so we\'ll have to move directly to the outskirts of the city, I think you can make a camp there with my permission." Said Aina.

"Do we need to stay here?" I asked.

"Yes, we\'ll stay a day or two to gather fuel and provisions, then we\'ll travel to the capital, which is near the center of the continent." Said Aunt Aina.

"The center of it?! I guess we won\'t be seeing he sea any time soon." I sighed.

"There is an immense lake and several rivers in the capital, so you\'ll have water everywhere if that\'s what you want, don\'t worry." Said Aunt Aina. "Now let\'s go. After we settle down outside, you can come back to explore and have fun. Don\'t worry about bandits and the like, all these areas are clean of crime. Our soldiers are very competent and adventurers also patrol the streets as a job."

"Amazing, it is really well guarded everywhere!" I said in surprise.

"Nothing like Eastgrain. One wrong turn and you\'re surrounded by thugs." Sighed Celeste.

"Hahah… It must have been tough for you guys. Don\'t worry. Unless we have something like… attacks from terrorists or cultists, usually there are no battles and it is mostly safe." Sighed Aunt Aina.

"Wait, terrorist and cultists?!" I asked.

"It is not so common, and we deal with them swiftly." Aunt said reassuring me that everything was okay.

"A-Alright… I\'ll trust you…"

I guess I was kind of traumatized with these types of organizations already.
