Chapter 4

"Hey, you guys upstairs. Come down!" Amora, who was looking at Sandy and Alice up in the tree.

Sandy was afraid that Alice would fall down. He held her hand, and they flew down together slowly. There was Chiki, who also came down with Alice.

Amora Freya ruffled her waist and looked at Alice with a sharp look. Sandy had not let go of her hand at all, and she probably felt comfortable holding hands like this.

"What's wrong, Amora? You told us to go downstairs when we were looking at the view from the top of the tree," Sandy said as she glanced at Alice.

"What good is it to see this view from up there?" Amora looked haughty in front of Sandy.

Amora looked sullenly at her. Alice didn't know why Amora was acting like this. The beautiful woman with two braided hairs just kept staring at her. Was it possible that Amora didn't like her being close to Sandy?

Then Alice let go of Sandy's hand. Chiki was beside her, and he told her to return to the cultivation room.

"Alice, wait."

However, Sandy was still chasing her. He approached her and gave her something.

"This is for you." Sandy handed Alice a sprig of edelweiss.

"Where did you get this flower?" asked Alice, who was happy to get the edelweiss.

"I can get anything easily." Sandy said that confidently.

She thanked the man and headed to the cultivation room with Chiki. The flying chicken, which had colorful feathers, seemed loyal to Alice. After Alice's departure, Amora approached Sandy.

"Sandy, do you like that woman?" asked Amora, who was both curious and jealous.

Amora didn't get the answer she wanted, and Sandy just left. Amora ended up disliking Alice's presence here.

"There's no doubt that Sandy likes that woman."


There was a banquet being held by the healing clan outside. This kind of event reminded her of the banquet that was held in her kingdom. During the event, the Goldenia Kingdom suddenly came under attack from the enemy kingdom.

Alice felt embarrassed to come out and meet so many people. She was with Chiki inside.

"Alice, do you want to go out to see them?" asked Chiki.

"No, I'll stay here. If you want to go out, go." Alice said to her favorite flying chicken.

"No, I don't. I want to keep you company in this room."

Chiki was her only loyal friend at the moment. Wherever she went, Chiki was always with her. Even though it was just a chicken, it could fly and talk just like her.

Knock! Knock!

It was Sandy who came here. She invited him to come inside. Sandy wanted her to come together with the healing clan for dinner.

"Can you come with me and we go downstairs together? I'm sure they're expecting you there," said Sandy, who was still persuading Alice to come along.

"But I want to stay here with Chiki." Alice felt embarrassed just because she was still a new resident here.

"Never mind; it's okay. I'm sure you're feeling embarrassed right now, right? So, you don't want to go there?" Sandy took Alice's hand and invited her to go there.

Chiki also went down with them. Eventually, Alice descended as well and met up with many of the healing clans. One woman was staring intently at her, Amora.

Amora's gaze never left her. Alice felt uncomfortable being here, actually. However, Sandy had invited her here.

"Alice, let's eat together," Elena said as she offered the strawberries.

Alice took one strawberry and tasted it. "Hmm, why does it taste this sweet? I really like it."

They all laughed happily tonight. Alice was happy to be accepted in this Vestinel territory. Everyone was very friendly towards her, including Sandy. The man continued to stick by her side. She looked up at Sandy's handsome face.

"Do you like it?" Suddenly, Sandy whispered into Alice's ear.

"What?" Alice answered in a low voice.

"The strawberry flavor."

"Yes, I liked it."

"Want to taste some more? Let me get it for you."

"No need." Alice didn't want Sandy to do that.

She continued to get intense stares from Amora. She kept staring at her. When she tried to move away from Sandy, he kept coming closer to her. Alice couldn't stay here for long and had to go back to her room. She honestly felt uncomfortable being stared at so intently by Amora.

"Where are you going?" asked Sandy, who wanted to prevent Alice from leaving.

"I want to rest." Alice said goodbye to everyone here, then left with Chiki.

Finally, Sandy did not follow her anymore. She just walked alone with Chiki to the cultivation room. Suddenly, Amora got in her way. She didn't want anything to do with this woman.

"What's wrong?" Alice asked Amora nicely.

Unexpectedly, she received a small attack from Amora, which made her fall. Chiki was angry and helped her. Alice didn't want to retaliate and just let it go.

"What did I do to you?" Alice tried to stand up.

"Alice did nothing wrong to you. Alice is innocent of you!" said Chiki.

"Shut up, you useless chicken!" Amora scolded Chiki and used her powers to attack the little chicken.

Alice demanded answers from Amora because she didn't want any violence. When Amora was about to attack her again, Sandy, Elena, and some people from the healing clan suddenly appeared. Then, Amora stopped attacking her.

"What are you doing to Alice?" Sandy was in front of Alice's body and gave her protection.

Chiki was helped by Elena and taken to be healed. Amora was silent when asked.

"Alice, are you okay?" Sandy asked her and was worried.

"I'm fine, Sandy. Don't worry about me."

Amora was annoyed and stomped her feet in front of Sandy. The woman just walked away and didn't apologize to her.

"I'm sorry for Amora's attitude; she's just the way she is." Sandy gave her an explanation.

"It's okay. I already forgave her. Hmm... what about Chiki?" Alice just realized that Chiki was not nearby.

"Chiki is safe with Elena. Don't worry about her."

"Thank goodness then."
