Local Netizen Elf’s Life In Another World

Case 7: Friends – Raeliana Seymour.

''The great lady Seymour is here!'' A little girl, a cute one at that, kicks the door open and shouts.

She has light green hair tied in a twin tail flowing to her shoulder, and a pair of golden irises just like Emy's, albeit lighter, almost like the pale vanilla color of my hair. That, accompanied by a smug face gives her an impression of an utter brat.

''Energetic as usual.'' Says my dad with a grin, dude Abe has the same expression as well.

The little girl in question confidently walks towards us, bows down, and greets: ''Nice to see you again, Your Majesty and Your Excellency, lady Campbell as well.'' She then turns towards me: ''It's an honor to meet you, Your Highness, I am Raeliana Seymour.''

I thought she was a brat, but turns out she just has a really unique greeting, huh.

''Right, nice to meet you, just treat me casually, I'm more comfortable that way.''

''Great. I hate formalities as well. I'll call you Sylvie then, is that alright?''

''Sure thing, Liana. By the way, what in the world was that greeting you did before?'' That was weird.

''Heheh, I see you already made a nickname for me as well. And that greeting before was His Majesty's idea, he said that I could make a deep impression if I do that.'' Little Liana replies, giggling.

So the culprit was Dad all along.

''Dad, don't inject strange ideas into children, please. I'll tell Mom about this.''

My dad immediately switches from grinning stupidly to freaking out, let's ignore that.

''I'm not a child anymore, Sylvie. I'm 9 already.'' Liana puts her hands on her hip, puffing out her cutting board. 

Yes, you are. ''You look more like a 5-year-old than I do, Liana.''

That's actually true, her height is similar to mine.

''W-Well, I have a lot of room to grow, I'm sure I'll be taller than you and even Lady Campbell later.'' 

Don't sweat it, girl, you're beautiful as you are. LOL.

''Just call me by my name, I'll call you Raeliana too.'' Says Emy. ''I don't like being too stiff either.''

''That's fine by me, Emilia. By the way, I got here because of Her Majesty's request, but... What are we doing here?''

''We're playing chess, wanna join?''

New victim spotted.

''Sure, I only know the rule, but I'm sure I can beat you, I'm confident in using my brain.''

Heheh, gottem.

''Checkmate.'' Get Scholar matedThe fastest checkmate in chess, only takes 4 moves., idiot.

I can see her little face crumble in real time, this is so fun! Trolling and bullying children are two of my favorite things to do. Maybe I should troll more often, this is great.

I don't want to go overboard though.

''Well, should we do a little exercise outside now? Sitting down too long is not good for your health.'' I declare with a nonchalant face.

''Right, I'm also good at moving my body!'' Little Liana seems to be very competitive, well, that's not a bad mindset, I guess.

''Said the one who sleeps for almost 18 hours a day.'' My dad looks unconvinced, I'm telling the truth though, and I only sleep 10 hours a day, the remaining 8 hours I use to go on the Internet and practice controlling mana.

''I don't sleep for 18 hours, Dad, it's just that I was meditating to improve my mana control.'' I state while slowly getting out of the chair.

''The maids said you were closing your eyes, unmoving the whole time though.''

My maids, including Sophia, are apparently not mana users, so they couldn't see me control mana in my room. My nanny Isabella got an 'important' job to do so she went out 2 years ago as well, my parents didn't even bother to hire a new nanny for me cause they thought it was unnecessary. So everybody thought I was just sleeping, then?

''But I'm not lying.''

At some point, I think it was when I was 3 years old, I was able to move my mana even when closing my eyes. I tried and it was harder than normal, mainly because I can 'see' mana with my eyes, but I also felt like my control was getting better, so I just kept doing that. Before that I did sleep a lot though, maybe that was because of my young body.

''Sylvia, my daughter, controlling mana with your eyes closed is in the territory of Intermediate mages already.'' Dad tells me with a raised eyebrow.

I shrug. ''Well, guess I'm an Intermediate mage then. I've been doing that for 2 years, by the way.''

''...Unbelievable, even the first princess of the empire was only able to control mana with her eyes closed when she turned 9!'' Abe is apparently flabbergasted, actually, everyone here is. I guess the difference is because I'm doing it more consistently and earlier than most kids do, and some talent I guess, if I were to believe Miss DarkLordOfTheFlame or whatever.

''Enough of that, what does everyone want to do outside?''

''Why don't we try fighting monsters then? I think Louis can recreate some from his memory.'' Abe dude speaks up. Looks like nobody opposes the idea either.

''Let me get my mom here then, I bet she also wants to see the princess fight.'' Says Liana.

We just arrived at the training field in our castle, it is pretty spacious, the floor is made out of cobble, and I can see the weapon racks in the corner also.

My mom and another lady joined us halfway, she is Liana's mom, one of her moms, to be exact. Green hair green eyes, overall pretty and friendly. Actually, I think every elf is just straight-up beautiful, I've never seen an ugly one before, even my maids are insanely pretty. But I've never seen any elf with a pair of milkers bigger than C cup, so I'll be the first one to surpass that, hopefully.

''So you're going to summon fake monsters, Dad?'' I send my dad a questioning gaze.

''That's right, don't underestimate me, my princess. I am a 4-star Archmage, and I've been to the frontline fighting demons before. Using illusion magic to make 1 or 2 dragons is well within my capabilities.'' He says that with a confident smile, I guess my dad is really strong, huh, his writing skill is horrendous though.

''So who wants to go first?''

''...I'll go.'' Emy speaks up, her eyebrows are a tiny bit lower than usual, and her mouth slightly curls up. I guess she likes fighting.

''Sure, you're a 5-star Novice, so a Werewolf should be a good opponent.'' Dad flicks his finger, and I see mana gather on the ground a bit away from us, gradually forming into the shape of a werewolf, this one... Feels kinda 'bluer' than the one I saw in books, the color of mana, probably because it's fake.

Still, two meters tall, humanoid but has fur and its head is a wolf's, long hands with sharp claws, pretty intimidating, if you ask me.

Emy trots back from the corner of the field where she just ran to, with a two-handed sword.

With her legs slightly spread, two hands holding the sword pointing at the monster and activating her mana coating on her sword, which makes the sword more durable and sharper, she signals my dad. ''I'm ready.''

''Go.'' The werewolf immediately bursts into a run, heading straight towards the girl, ready to pounce on her. All the while growling, that's pretty scary.

Emy dodges the claws coming horizontally from left to right by ducking down, slashing at the wolf's right thigh, making it falter a bit before it goes back to attacking again.

This time, the werewolf uses both of its hands, going from top to bottom diagonally, forming an X. Emy instantly falls back, rendering the attack null. After that, she charges in with a high jump and cleanly cuts the monster's head before landing very gracefully on the ground. A trail of gold made from her sword's mana remains for a few seconds in the air.

clap clap clap

That was pretty clean. Deserves a round of applause.

''Well done, lady Campbell, I think at that level you should be in the range of Intermediate already.'' My dad smiles. Old Abe dude almost cries, it seems he's very proud of her, why are you two, wait three so similar to each other?

''Thank you, your Majesty.'' Emy bows with a small smile. She did a good job, really.

'''ll go next then, can I trouble you, Your Majesty?''

It's Liana's turn this time, well, let's see her strength then.
