Abe the Wizard

was provided to her every day.
She would also share the food with her servants and bodyguards, which made it an extremely honorable (and privileged) thing to serve beside her.
The best part must be the “skin-washing water” and “conditioner” she was using.
While the other elves would have to try to rush to the front of the line for them, Lorraine would always have a spare portion coming in before she finished using the original set.
The elves did already devote themselves to serving the Moon Goddess, but they would always look at Loraine and admire how far Master Bennett was willing to go for her.
It was the other way around, too.
Lorraine went as far as to make a direct request from the Moon Goddess as soon as Abel was in trouble at the Valley of Tree of Life.

Druid Lucia sighed and smiled, “They are so perfect for each other, aren’t they?”

Abel was starting to relax more now.
He was smiling with Loraine to enjoy the time they were having.
He didn’t find any part of this flight surprising, but he did feel a strong connection that was growing stronger when he was laughing and enjoying the company of his beloved one.
After about one hour, when Loraine got tired, they returned to the battle fort platform and went back to the inside of the battlefront.

Lorraine suddenly realized something when they returned, “Oh, wait! I’ve almost forgotten why I came here today!”

Abel kind of knew in the first place, but he just wanted Loraine to have fun for the day.

Abel smiled, “Nothing is secret between us, Lorraine.
It’s okay if you have something you want to talk about.”

Lorraine said, “It’s about the elders.
They wanted me to ask if you can help with promoting the big druids.
There are a lot of them at the temple, and they really struggle with making progress.”

She then winked for a bit, “You don’t have to help if it’s much, of course.”

Abel couldn’t help but smile at that remark.
He knew that there were big druids out there were who wanted to promote the tree of life.
He didn’t know that the temple druids were the first ones, though, and it was actually quite surprising that they would seek Loraine first and not directly to him.
It seemed like everyone on the central continent knew what was happening between them.

Abel smiled and said, “I can give two vacant spots for the temple.
As for the other big druids, Lorraine, they’d have to wait until you become an official sainte.”

A safe move, given that Loraine had not received any real authority yet.
It wasn’t wise to turn down the offer completely, but he didn’t think that they should exert too much influence over the elves, either.
Not when Loraine’s status was not quite secured yet.

“Thank you, Abel!” Lorraine said, grateful, in spite of not having a clue of the complexity that Abel was thinking.

Abel then spoke to Joan, “Set a table and two chairs for us.”

Very quickly, three objects stretched up from the ground.
The big one became a plain-looking table, while the two small ones looked like tall chairs that were lumping up.
The designs were according to Abel’s imagination.
Given how unique they looked, Lorraine became very curious to see what they were like.

Abel took out two crystal cups from Valaya’s ring.
After pouring some juice in them, he began chatting with Loraine about what happened to her recently at the temple.
Lorraine was very keen to talk.
The smile she had on her face seemed like she wanted to tell him everything that had happened.
Abel was very keen to listen, too.
He liked listening to Loraine talk like this.
Not the complicated things at the temple, though.
He preferred Loraine to think about those after she reached adulthood.

Lorraine suddenly realized when it’s dawn, “It’s late! Oh, no! I didn’t notice the time! Druid Lucia must’ve been waiting for me!”

Abel smiled in response, “About that, I don’t think she’s going to be in a rush.”

The same cannot be said for the elders, but Druid Lucia knew how precious this time between them was.
Whatever the case, there was probably going to be a lot of arguing about who was going to receive the two vacant spots for promotion.
He wasn’t going to bother too much, though.
As far as he was concerned, what he was offering to the temple was going to help Loraine live a more comfortable life inside the temple.

Lorraine seemed to want to stay, though, “But I have another lesson tonight! I need to get back before it’s dark!”

Abel nudged her hair for a bit with his fingers, “I guess, sure.
Make sure you come here when you have the time.
I’ll be available during daytime.”

“Oh, sure… Got it!” Lorraine nodded, her face blushing slightly.
She was very satisfied with this dating spot of theirs.
Abel could show himself in his human form, and it’s not like she had to think too much about her status as the Sainte.
It was just like back on the Holy Continent.
They were enjoying their time together to have fun.
That was all there was to it.

As the saying went, happy times often fell short.
Since he had to see Loraine off to Druid Lucia, Abel reverted back to his elven form and said goodbye to them at the large-sized teleportation circle.

Just as he was thinking that it was going to be a while before he could see Loraine again, in the morning of the very next day, the research spirit notified him that she and Druid Lucia were already waiting for him in the guest-meeting room.

He said to himself while teleporting there, “The temple elders are always in such a rush, aren’t they?”
