[Summer Flower Moon, dusk on the 13th]
Isn't this six days later...
besides--
Morningstar Hills.
as well as--
[I have something very important to say to you.]
The white fingers holding the letter trembled slightly.
In Sylvia's purple eyes, ripples appeared one after another.
At this moment, she felt that her heart was suddenly hit by something, and it made a loud bang.
...
...
A huge wave of happiness echoed in Sylvia's heart, warm and gentle, making her consciousness a little dazed and trance.
Maybe I am still dreaming, she thought to herself.
But at this moment, the clear handwriting on the letter paper that Sylvia held tightly between her fingers told her that what she saw was not a dream, but reality.
Sylvia held the piece of letter paper and paced briskly.
When she thought of the happy things, she couldn't help but lift up her skirt and turned around happily twice.
Then, Sylvia carefully put away the short letter, as if it were some precious treasure.
After doing all this, Sylvia eagerly pulled out the chair and opened the small diary.
She couldn't wait to express the burning happiness in her heart through the words in her diary.
"Brother Char sent me a letter through his servant."
"In the letter, Brother Char asked me to meet him at Morning Star Hill at dusk six days later."
"Morningstar Hills, I know that place..."
"That hill is covered with star-moon grass and night orchids."
"On weekdays, they are just ordinary flowers and plants, but when day and night turn, they will bloom into the most beautiful flowers."
"They only bloom in the interval between dawn and dusk, like bubbles, beautiful but fleeting."
"And Morningstar Hill is where my father and mother met..."
"I heard that my father, who had not yet succeeded to the position of head of the family, confessed his love to my mother in the sea of flowers blooming all over the mountains."
"So, Char-nii asked me to go there."
"Then the important thing you want to tell me, could it be..."
Sylvia's pen tip paused slightly, and her dark purple eyes stared at the silver moon outside the window, as bright as jade.
The corners of her mouth sometimes raised and sometimes twitched.
Sylvia quietly felt the spreading warmth, which gradually engulfed her whole body and mind.
It was a long time before she started writing again.
"I'm liked by Char-nii-san."
"Right now, I am probably the happiest baby in the world."
——Excerpt from "Diary of the Blue Silver Witch", page 23, Holy Calendar Year 346, Summer Flower Month, Day 7.
…
The thirteenth day of the summer flower month.
In the evening.
Char was waiting early at the outskirts of the royal capital, at the end of the mountains.
Regardless of his identity as the one inviting him to the date or the things he planned to accomplish, Char had to arrive early.
He summoned Silver and played with the little ferret out of boredom for a while. After a while, a tapping sound came from behind Char.
Xia turned around and saw Sylvia walking towards him from a distance.
On weekdays, Sylvia usually doesn't wear any makeup, and even chooses plain clothes in monochrome tones.
But today, Sylvia had obviously put a lot of thought into dressing herself up. She changed into a dark knee-length skirt, and the folded hem spread out like layers of lotus leaves.
Sylvia had tied up her chestnut and silver long hair that had been naturally draped down to her shoulders, revealing her snow-white neck with graceful curves like a swan. The hairpin that Char gave to Sylvia was the only metal ornament on her body, and the amethyst on the hairpin sparkled brightly under the reflection of the setting sun.
Sylvia walked lightly to Char's side. She was wearing a small white round hat on her head and a pair of red high heels on her feet.
Apparently Sylvia had no experience wearing high heels; her calves were slightly tense and she walked a little clumsily.
Xia walked forward and supported Sylvia: "It looks very good."
He nodded and began to praise.
Even with Xia's vision, he had to admit that Sylvia was an eye-opener today.
With Char's experience in the cosmetics and luxury goods industry in the Black Lily District of the Imperial Capital, he had seen all the most fashionable and trendy outfits. The outfit that Sylvia had spent hours picking out today was actually not very impressive. If you look at it from a professional perspective, there were even conflicts in many places.
But this still does not hinder Sylvia's beauty.
Only for the person she likes will a young and immature girl be willing to spend time dressing herself up little by little, just to make herself look better when she appears.
Then I am really a sinful man.
Thinking of what he was about to do, Xia couldn't help but smile in his heart.
The two walked up the mountain side by side without much communication.
This was not the first time that Xia had asked Silvia out to play, and the two of them already had their own tacit understanding.
…
The road up the mountain is not very flat, it is just a winding mountain path.
Sylvia was worried that she would fall, so she placed her hand obediently in Char's palm and let Char lead her forward.
Xia Ya walked in front, pushing aside the lush, dense and overgrown branches and stones on the mountain path.
The mountain path soon came to an end, and up above was a sloping hillside.
With the help of Char, Sylvia climbed over the hill, panting slightly.
She had never contracted a pet, and although the power in the bronze cross could be controlled by her, it usually just dormant deep in her soul.
Therefore, Sylvia's physical fitness was no different from that of ordinary people. Climbing the entire mountain in one breath made her feel a little tired, and a blush appeared on her pretty white face.
But Sylvia's dark purple eyes were still very bright, surprisingly bright.
"We're here."
Char's figure stopped at a high point.
Sylvia held Char's hand and climbed over the last slope.
The next moment her pupils suddenly widened.
What comes into view is a sea of blooming flowers.
There are countless blooming night-moon orchids and star flowers all around, with charming fragrance.
In the distance of the sea of flowers is a cliff.
The dusk and sunset mixed together and surged into Sylvia's sight like a tide.
The entire royal capital can be seen below the cliff, with buildings quietly crawling on the ground, and farther away from the city is the blue Grand Sea.
The huge sun has touched the sea surface.
The whistling evening breeze blew past, carrying with it the forests on the entire mountain range. Countless treetops swayed in the wind, creating layer upon layer of waves all the way to the end of the sea.
