After arriving in Vebon, life suddenly became much calmer.

About a week later, on a whim, I started writing in my diary.

There wasn't any particular reason.

I just feel that I've experienced so much on my journey, and if I don't leave anything behind, when I look back many years later, I might not even remember what kind of path I've taken.

Therefore, I decided to record these days one by one.

For no other reason than...

It's simply a record.

March 18th, light rain.

The weather isn't very good today.

It was drizzling outside the window, and the sky was overcast, clearly not a good time to go out.

Therefore, I decided to change today's class into a theory class.

The main topic of explanation is the composition of magic in this world.

I told Bunny and Leona that everything in this world contains magic to some extent. The air is filled with trace amounts of elemental forces, such as water, wind, and earth.

What a magician truly needs to do is not to create power out of thin air, but to Perception, guide, and utilize the power that already exists in the world.

In addition, the environment can also affect the effectiveness of magic.

For example, casting water magic near a lake can enhance its power by utilizing the abundant water element in the surrounding area.

The same applies to wind magic and earth magic.

Bunny listened very attentively, and would occasionally ask questions.

As for Leona...

She was already starting to doze off.

It seems that theoretical classes are indeed her nemesis.

March 28th, cloudy.

I'm getting more and more skilled at Intangibility Magic.

I am now able to continuously anchor my coordinates in real space and move freely using these anchor points.

This feeling is wonderful.

It's as if the entire space has become a map that can be folded at will, and all I need to do is find the right spot and take a step.

I also started trying to teach this theory to Bunny.

pity...

She was completely baffled.

I've said it many times.

She didn't seem to understand.

In the end, I had no other choice but to use that one trick.

"Cute" with Bunny.

Of course, don't misunderstand.

This is a teaching activity.

To be precise, it was through close contact that I guided my magic into her magic circuits, directing the magic within her body in the right direction.

This would allow her to more intuitively understand how magic works and make it easier for her to master new spells.

Um.

This is a very rigorous teaching method.

There is absolutely no ulterior motive.

Heavy rain on April 15th.

Today is a day worth recording.

Rujierd, Eris, and Randolph all came.

Including me, Bunny, and Leona, the six of us were truly together for the first time.

The atmosphere was quite nice.

Then...

Randolph suggested that he demonstrate the cooking skills he had recently learned.

The scene fell silent instantly.

I noticed that everyone was looking at me at the same time.

The meaning in his eyes was very clear.

You eat.

I could only sigh helplessly.

However, when Randolph brought out dish after dish from the kitchen, everyone fell silent.

First, there's the aroma.

It actually smells really good.

Secondly, there's the appearance.

The exquisite plating and perfectly placed decorations make it look like a dish served in a five-star hotel.

With a mindset of testing the waters... no, I meant trying something new, I took the first bite.

Then, I froze.

tasty.

And it was surprisingly delicious.

After the others tried it, they all showed the same expression as me.

Later I learned that the reason Randolph's savory Nanahoshi meat stew was so bad was not because of his poor cooking skills.

Rather, it's because--

Dragon meat was never intended for human consumption.

That's dragon food.

in other words...

In the past, Randolph was actually using the skills of a top chef to try to turn an ingredient that was not suitable for human consumption into a delicacy.

Looking back now, it's somewhat both laughable and pathetic.

April 30th, sunny.

I spent the whole day outside with Eris today.

She looked very happy.

I asked her how it was going with training those new recruits lately.

She thought for a moment and replied, "It's quite interesting."

She said that in the process of teaching others, she also has to re-examine what she has learned before.

That made me very happy.

Eris used to only know how to keep swinging her sword.

Now, she has begun to learn to think.

Strength is certainly important.

But true growth is never just about becoming stronger; it's about beginning to understand the power you possess.

It seems she has really grown up.

May 15th, sunny.

Teaching continued smoothly.

However, I discovered something very interesting today.

Leona experiences certain physical changes when she is extremely emotionally agitated.

For example, when extremely angry, their teeth become sharp, their claws grow longer, and even their eyes emit a strange light.

It has great research value.

I'm making a note of this phenomenon for now, in preparation for further observation later.

As for how I discovered it...

It's definitely not because I've been paying too much attention to Bunny lately, to the point that I've neglected Leona, which ultimately led to her jealousy.

Absolutely not.

Um.

A diary doesn't lie.

But I can.

June 1st, sunny.

With the help of Advanced Mana Control Potion, Advanced Voiceless Incantation Potion, and my personal guidance, Bunny has gradually grown into a Advanced Rank mage in just a few months.

This is quite an amazing improvement.

I believe that once a mage reaches this stage, the most important thing is no longer simply increasing magic power, but rather controlling and utilizing their own magic power.

This is fundamental, and also crucial.

As I have said before--

Magic is an abstract power.

The ultimate embodiment of this system is the Voiceless Magic.

Before casting a spell, a magician must first construct a complete magical model in their mind and determine its various parameters.

It sounds simple.

It's like holding an egg and wondering how much force it would take to crush it.

But in reality...

It's as difficult as climbing to heaven.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be so few magicians in the world who can use Voiceless Magic.

And Bunny is getting closer and closer to that field.

She is actually a genius.

June 10th, sunny turning cloudy.

Yanli sent a message.

Roxy and her friends still hadn't found Zenith.

As for the others who were relocated, only a few have been found in slave shops in some towns.

In the wild, a few mutilated corpses can occasionally be found.

Every message is heavy-hearted.

I ordered Yanli to continue observing.

Now is not the time to stop.

As long as one person is alive, the search must continue.

July 15th, sunny.

Today I took Eris and the two little ones out shopping.

The streets of the King Dragon Kingdom...

How should I put it?

Chaos.

It's completely chaotic.

After wandering around for a while, I got completely lost.

But it's not a big problem.

We're just out to enjoy the scenery; we don't actually need to remember the route.

If you really can't find the way, just fly back.

Bunny seemed to have never really gone shopping before.

Everything she saw along the way seemed new and exciting, her eyes brimming with undisguised delight.

Although she is already an adult, she is only about 1.5 meters tall, barely reaching my waist.

So, I picked her up very easily.

This child seems to have never truly experienced the life of an ordinary person before.

Thinking about this, I felt a pang of heartache.

If possible, I want to do everything in my power to make up for what she lacked in the past, little by little.

However...

Leona clearly didn't think so.

When she saw me suddenly pick up Bunny, she immediately became unhappy.

The next second, it climbed onto my back and hung there.

I could even sense her jealousy.

Eris, who was following behind, glared at me fiercely when she saw this.

I couldn't help but laugh.

So I reached out my only remaining hand and pulled Eris into my arms as well.

That moment...

I'm so happy.

certainly.

I don't know how many hearts this happiness broke along the way.

But at least I'm in a good mood.

August 30th, cloudy.

Bunny has basically achieved short-distance spatial jumps.

Simply create a portal of light around your body, enter it, and you will reappear in a completely unexpected location.

Moreover, it consumes very little magic power.

This level of efficiency is already quite remarkable.

Whether I should say it or not...

Bunny is truly a genius.

September 30th, sunny.

Under my "special" teaching methods, Leona's training gradually improved.

Now, she is able to maintain that special state on her own initiative.

I gave it a name.

Fury State.

That sounds cool.

At least I'm very satisfied.

November 15th, cloudy.

He has taught Bunny almost all the practical Saint Rank magic.

I discovered by chance today that she seems to have mastered another amazing ability.

She is able to form a layer of extremely dense air around herself.

Currently, this ability doesn't seem to have any practical use.

Besides making her somewhat immune to all evil, she can't even withstand a slightly stronger wind.

but...

I always felt it wasn't that simple.

If development can continue, it might produce unexpected results.

I told Bunny about this idea.

She nodded seriously.

It seems there's a new research direction.

December 22nd, cloudy.

Today is a special day.

Benedict celebrated her birthday.

Only five people celebrated her birthday.

Me, Eris, Rujierd, Leona, and Randolph.

There weren't many people.

But Bunny was smiling almost the entire day.

That smile felt so genuine.

I'm very happy.

I think she will remember this day forever.

And so am I.

After all, some days are special not because something earth-shattering has happened.

Simply because...

Everyone is together.

February 2nd, cloudy.

Today, Yanli suddenly brought several important messages.

Found it.

Zenith's location has finally been found.

Meanwhile, Paul and his group had already entered the Central Continent.

It seems...

It's time to set off.

These peaceful days should come to a temporary end.

February 3rd, sunny.

We began preparing for Bunny's graduation exam.

This time, I'm going to give her a real test.

If she can pass...

Then, she would truly be qualified to stand on her own.

As for the assessment content...

I don't know either.
