One day ago, in the capital of the Ais Empire,

It was afternoon, and Princess Cher and Yaling were sitting in their room, boredly watching the people coming and going in the city, while sipping their tea.

After a while, Princess Cher sighed and placed her teacup on the table.

"Hmm? What's wrong, Princess Cher? Is the tea not good?" Yaling asked.

"Oh no, not at all. In fact, Yaling, your tea-making skills have improved a lot during this time. If you continue like this, I won't need to find any other maidservants," Princess Cher replied.

"Oh, you flatter me," Yaling said.

"Yaling," Princess Cher pouted. "We've already agreed not to use honorifics. Why are you still calling me 'Princess'? It makes me feel like an old lady."

"Sorry, sorry. So, Princess Cher, why did you sigh?" Yaling asked.

"Isn't it obvious? I'm bored!" Princess Cher exclaimed, slamming the table. "I've been so bored lately! Without Fir causing trouble, everything feels so dull! Where on earth has that guy disappeared to? Could he really be dead?"

"Well... I don't know," Yaling said, with a lonely expression on her face. "But that guy, it's not so easy for him to die."

"Hahaha, you're right..." Princess Cher laughed happily, then picked up her teacup again. "If he's still alive, he better come back to us soon! I can't believe he's treating us like this, after considering him a friend!"

"Yes, if it were someone else, they would have come back immediately, right? Especially if it's the princess's wish," Yaling added.

"Exactly! And I can't go to school either. I don't know what to do," Princess Cher complained.

The two of them continued complaining back and forth, but soon they fell into silence.

"Well, I don't know what the future holds, but staying idle like this is not a solution. What do you think? Should I stay in the palace to study or go to the Imperial College for further education? Whichever I choose, it feels so boring," Princess Cher pondered.

"Hehe, Princess Cher, you still don't like studying, huh?" Yaling teased.

"Well, neither do you," Princess Cher retorted.

They both burst into laughter.

Just then, the door suddenly burst open with a loud bang. Startled, they turned their heads to see Blanche rushing in with an anxious expression.

"What's wrong, Blanche? You look like you've seen a ghost," Princess Cher asked, surprised to see Blanche in such a state.

"Oh my god, the package today..." Blanche began, but before she could finish her sentence, another person appeared at the door. Yes, it was Pure White, holding several boxes and wearing the Blue Moon Company uniform.

By the way, after Pure White helped Dale bring the airship back to Blue Moon headquarters, Lanya, who was amazed by Pure White's piloting talent, immediately enlisted her temporarily to work in the delivery industry. Compared to ordinary people, Pure White had a better understanding of machinery, and she was not as unfamiliar or fearful of operating it. Within a short hour, Pure White became a skilled operator.

So, Lanya generously waved her hand and said that if Pure White helped her with deliveries for a few days, she would give her a combat airship as a reward.

Pure White gladly accepted the mission, and the fact is that it was the right decision to hire her, as she managed to ship a large amount of accumulated goods from the warehouse in just one day.

This has led Lanya to regret not allowing her to learn how to fly large transport planes.

However, it is precisely because of this that the current scene is happening: Pure White, carrying a large amount of goods, appeared at the door of Princess Cher's room.

"Pure White! Where have you been all this time?"

The first to react was Princess Cher, who immediately put down her teacup and rushed over to size up Pure White.

"Well, I've been doing deliveries. Please sign for the goods."

Pure White gave a slight smile, placed the goods on the floor, and then pulled out a small board for Princess Cher to sign.

"Oh...okay."

Princess Cher immediately signed on the board.

"That's not the point, Pure White! Where is Fir now? Hurry up and tell us again," Blanche anxiously interjected.

"Hmm? Master is currently in the Witte Empire. It seems he got involved in something strange again and had some kind of encounter with their prince. Now he has been hired as a substitute teacher at the Ais Empire Imperial Academy. After that, I don't know. But right now, Oyado, Aliyah, Ms. Mary, Dale, and Bai Yueguang are all with him. So, I don't need to stay by Master's side for now, right? And later, I will be able to get an airship, which will be even more helpful to Master."

"Wait, wait, wait!! Fir has already gone to the Witte Empire Imperial Academy? And he became a substitute teacher there! What is this! Why didn't he come to the Ais Empire Imperial Academy to teach? He's our National Mage!" Princess Cher, after signing, began pacing back and forth in the room, thinking for a while, then looked at Yaling and Blanche.

"Can we...apply to other empire's imperial academies?"

"In general, it's possible, but hardly anyone has tried. However, we have an alliance with the Witte Empire, and His Majesty would probably prefer you to go to school rather than stay in the palace," Yaling quickly replied.

Blanche also nodded in agreement.

"And based on the relationship between the two countries, there should be no reason for either the other side or His Majesty to refuse. The only concern is Fir's peculiar personality, and we don't know how long he'll stay there."

"Well, then let's leave immediately! Thank you, Pure White! Take us to find Fir right away!" Princess Cher said.

"Um... I still have some goods..."

"I will pay for the airship. You don't have to be a courier anymore!"

"Okay!"

Pure White immediately responded.

However, Yaling kindly reminded them from the side.

"Princess, we should at least... pack up, shouldn't we? Are we going to shuttle between the academy and the Ais Empire every day?"

"Oh, right. Blanche, hurry and prepare our luggage. Yaling, let's go report to Father! We'll depart this afternoon."

"Understood!"

"No problem!"

After saying that, Blanche quickly left the room, while Yaling and Princess Cher looked at Pure White.

"Pure White, you go and bring the cargo airship back to the Blue Moon. My airship happens to be getting serviced at their factory. Take my key and bring it back for me."

"Okay, understood."

"Hehehe!"

Princess Cher laughed cruelly.

"Indeed, it's more fulfilling to find something to do!"
