Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer-Chapter 322 Night Of Birthday

In the dark of night, the stars light up the sky, twinkling with the light of their own, flaying in the faraway sky.

The twinkle of the little stars, the winds of the cloudy night, the lights of the faraway stars reaching this planet, gracing the earth with their beauty.

A blue moon shins among them, smiling down at us from his high stage. His light glistens the Gaia, the gentle, cool, caring moonlight blesses the organisms of this world.

Night arrives at her regular time, after the passing of a beautiful sunset, which shows the fall of the eternal sun.

The night that blesses the world after the downfall of an all-powerful being that homes the sixth heaven…

The night was cheery, there were faint clouds, but the stars were all visible, and the moon was, as always, smiling down on me. I was sitting on the chair of her house's terrace, the same place we first had our first private conversation.

She wasn't here yet and it will soon be midnight.

The blue, white, and gray of the night were the same as every night, the colorful glowing flowers on the small garden on the other side of this terrace were beautiful, the calm breezes of the night carrying a fresh, earthly scent, mixed with the essence of the forest, is also quite refreshing.

We have already finished dinner after coming back from that big garden farm.

We had finely cooked fish and chips for the dinner, something pretty unique from this world's point of view.

The dinner was superb. Not disappointing at all. Just the finest thing one could expect from a ducal household.

Anna and Zoe also liked the dinner and after the long day we had, with all the walking around and playing with all that cheerful energy, Anna was naturally exhausted.

So… Rein took us to that big farm just so she could exhaust my two little sisters.

It was a good plan, actually. Something I only understood after seeing the fatigued Anna when we joined them after the monkey killing.

Her plan definitely worked for Anna, a pretty genius plan for that little thing. But Zoe was different.

At this point, I know Zoe had almost reached Alf's level of strength.

She was a far more difficult opponent to defeat in actual combat. And this kind of small mind game wouldn't work with her at all.

She was a phoenix. Master of all wisdom. All trickery was futile against her.

So, the last and best option she had would be to make a mutually beneficial deal with Zoe.

And Rein was doing just that right now.

The both of them were talking right now, and I couldn't see or hear what they were talking about because of the promise Zoe asked me.

Well, that was their discussion, but she had to hurry because soon, it would be midnight, the classic time for first birthday wishes.

The night is normal, even though it is my birthday. 𝑓𝐫𝑒e𝒘𝚎𝘣𝚗𝘰𝘷𝐞𝑙.co𝑚

My first birthday outside of the great forest in the six years I was away from my family.

I'm still away from them, but that doesn't matter because they know I'm safe and will be there for my birthday party they were so carefully preparing.

For now, I was with Rein, in her house, in our personal favorite spot, on a rooftop that shows a spectacular view both day and night.

This place was like the bench in our garden, made for two people, though there was nothing like a spirit cluster in this place like that one.

There aren't any fairies around here. At least there weren't these past two days I checked myself.

But still, the view from this high place, the way these big trees look tiny, and I can see far away in the forest surrounding this estate, and the beasts and creatures of the night.

There were pretty rare creatures in the area around the estate. Small but rare ones.

And I liked this place even more because of that.

We can't see many things like this in the capital, so this place was something I really liked.

The night was calm, the smell of forest earth was fresh, and it was a bit cold as this was the last month of the year and winter is approaching so my first winter with her will be fun too. 𝒇𝑟𝐞𝐞w𝐞𝑏𝙣𝑜vℯl.co𝑚

The sounds of the night, the wind's passing, creatures singing for their mates, predators hunting with their special voices, the sound of rustling leaves, and lastly... the sound of some familiar footsteps.

She was walking upstairs, slowly but excitedly.

I could just tell how ecstatic she was right now from those tip-toeing footsteps, which were almost dancing with their every move.

She was happy, and of course, she would be happy. She must have succeeded in making that deal with Zoe.

Both of them were smart ones, so I knew they wouldn't have settled for anything small.

But she got what she wanted: the first moments of the midnight with me.

And now, I was looking forward to what she will do.

A normal nice talk? A small celebration? Did she prepare a gift or something? Or did she prepare something grand?

I didn't know many things that had happened in this big mansion when we were gone; I didn't even try to know that with Celes's clones.

She was good at what she was serious about, and that was enough.

It was my birthday, and it's not been much longer since we were together.

We were closer than ever, knowing each other more than enough to know what the other is thinking or might think.

So, this was something I was looking forward to even though it might not be something as awesome as my other dear family members would do at the capital.

The terrace's entrance was in the middle of this side and the other side with the greenhouse.

There was no door, so I could see the stairs lit with a dim yellow light, and the light didn't suit the natural beauty that she had.

Maybe a soft blue, bright red, or even white would have been better but, this was only passable.

Her footsteps became clear as she reached the last of these stairs, and the tip-toeing in her steps slowed down and then almost stopped. Maybe she suddenly got nervous?

'That funny girl...'

But the footsteps never actually stooped, and she continued despite her sudden hesitation.

Maybe she might not even have planned anything at all, and that would be the most Rein-like thing I can think of.

She wasn't the planner, thinker, and strategy maker between us. No... she was the hyperactive wild one who just charges forward and dominates with sheer pure power.

That was her and... she was better that way.

I would love it if she had nothing prepared at all. And that would make her a real person, different from the 'fake' ones.

And, well, I had nothing to think too deeply about, anyway.

A birthday is just like any other simple day, just holding some historical meaning, some sentiments, and a bunch of different things in a person's life.

Personally, I hadn't thought much about the dates we were born, the dates that we come to this world, have our first cry, and start a life, in my case... start a new life.
