New Life, New Task: I'll Be A Mom Then!!!
Leon took a good look at Eli's nervous figure.
Her countenance which had been a symbol of empowerment to most of the women and even the younger generation was now filled with anxiousness and fear of the uncertain.
Yet in Leon's eyes, Eli is perfect just the way she is. Her intelligence and even her weaknesses, are all that Leon loved about her.
And so in the faint glow of the study room, Leon nodded faintly as he approached her to hold her hand, "Alright… I'll be with you no matter what."
Eli's heart calmed down upon hearing Leon's words. She responded to his touch and gave him a deep look.
Then she bent down and took out the Elder Leprechaun's book from her space pouch.
Before the couple, appeared an ordinary-looking book covered with a simple leather hardbound cover.
Leading Eli to the seat, Leon sat beside her, ensuring that they were close enough to see the contents of the book written by the mysterious guard of the Imperial Archives.
Opening the book, they were greeted by a string of words that were elegantly written in ink.
"To Eli, the last full-blooded Asani…Open this book when the time comes…"
The two looked at each other. Leon patted Eli's hand to encourage her to continue flipping the book.
However, the next page of the book was left blank, much to their confusion.
Eli furrowed her brows and flipped page after page. But it seems that there was no other text in the book except for the first page.
"Could it be that the pages of this book will only appear at the right moment?" Leon sensed Eli's confusion and so he mumbled.
"Most probably… but how could we determine when is the right time?" Eli replied.
"The Elder Leprechaun's words are pretty straightforward, however, the situation this morning might not be the one he was pertaining to…" Leon rubbed Eli's back while he was contemplating deeply.
"When my identity as an Asani is being questioned… Could it be that when I see the fake paladin in my own eyes?" Eli frowned.
"Most possibly…"
Eli was left speechless. If that were the case, then knowing what was inside the book will not help her at that moment. She could only hold on until she had time to look through the book after meeting the fake paladin.
Meeting her must be inevitable then…
"If that's the case, then there is no need in rushing things. Besides, knowing about it will only let us know more advanced information, we will still confront them when the time comes." Leon added.
"Yeah…" Eli's shoulders dropped in frustration. She sighed heavily letting her head rest on Leon's shoulders.
"Don't worry…We're all here no matter what…" Leon took Eli to his embrace as he allowed his lady to fall asleep in his arms.
"En…" Eli mumbled sleepily. In a few minutes, her faint peaceful breathing could be heart.

The next morning, Eli went straight to the tournament to hear the announcement of the tournament.
In the end, her request was granted and the piano competition was held two days before the conductor's competition.
Although everyone was shocked to hear about the postponement, they still nodded their heads in agreement as there were only two remaining categories left in the music division.
Besides, pianists seldom play an integral part in the symphony competition.
Another change that happened was the obvious heightening of security measures in the venue.
Spearheaded by the Anti Curse Committee, the knights employed by the tournament council.
Since Randel and Eli were busy in the competition, it was Seigfried who led the investigation. The leads in smuggling the Arid Spider Venom all pointed to suspicious summoners specializing in insect manipulation.
And so all the records of summoners in the Empire, may it be a citizen or a foreigner were extracted and rigorous tracking was done with the information.
It proved that Seigfried was the best person to lead the case because he came from an established summoner family. And so he knew very well how possible it was for a summoner to smuggle the banned venom.
To the public's surprise, it was not only Desmond who had fallen victim to the venom smuggling.
Numerous participants from different kingdoms have also experienced the same symptoms that they had. The common denominator of all the victims was they were all candidates for the final competitions.
In short, this is a conspiracy to ensure that a certain person or group becomes the winner of the remaining tournament events.
The Anti-Curse Committee opted to no longer report the information beyond that point. But the public already had their own answers…
At the luxurious townhouse in the capital, a group of men was kneeling nervously in front of Crown Prince Ranon whose eyes looked calm yet terrifying at the same time.
"So men, tell me… who in the world is foolish to think of doing that scheme and embarrass our delegation to the entire Prasinos?" Crown Prince Ranon's voice was calm yet cold.
His words were told neither fast nor slow, however, it was enough to make the men in front of him shudder in fear.
"This… Your Highness… we know nothing about the case…" The Head Master of the Vanderford Institute answered rather carefully.
"Do not think that I am easier to fool than my father. I know that your men had a hand in this case… It was not even an issue for me to see you pull tricks like that, but why do your men have to be foolish to be found out?" Crown Prince Ranon was displeased by the Headmaster's answer.
"This… Your Highness, please let us handle the case and fix the mess."
"You better be! Clean up this mess and ensure that you will find the right words to explain to Father!" Crown Prince Ranon tilted his hand that was holding a glass of wine at an angle.
"Lay low and do not cause any more mess than this…"
Before the men's eyes, the lusciously fragrant wine spilled on the floor.
However, no one dared to breathe loudly, for, in their eyes, they seemed to envision the spilled wine as their blood flowing carelessly on the floor.
"Whatever tricks you wanted to play, you better stop it now for it will only embarrass the empire further. After the tournament, do not waste any second and go back to the Empire!" With that Crown Prince Ranon flung the wine glass to the side, making a crashing sound that awakened the men in their own thoughts.
Only when they knew that the Crown Prince was no longer in the room did they sigh in relief.
"They are really a bunch of fools…" Entering his bed chambers, Crown Prince Ranon heard Arabella's voice emerging from the dark curtains.
"Heh, they are indeed dimwits… To think that these men were educators! I am speechless." Crown Prince Ranon sat on the sofa nonchalantly.
He was pretty vexed because of what was happening. The foolish move made by the men in the Vanderford institute event triggered them to lose their chances to stay inside the Empire longer.
"The Emperor is a cunning man, he will surely throw chaos once the tournament is up. Moreover, we have no choice but to lay low too." Arabella reported.
"How many of our men were caught?" Crown Prince Ranon closed his eyes and brushed the hair resting on his forehead.
"Out of the ten we were able to painstakingly sneak in, they caught four."
"...hahaha!" Crown Prince Ranon laughed, but Arabella on the side knew that he was angry and so she completely kept silent and allowed the man in front of him to vent his anger.
After some time, Arabella could feel that he had already calmed down. Then her amethyst eyes glinted devilishly before saying her next words.
"Did you know who is the catalyst of it all? It is none other than the inventor Eli… She is the one who triggered the entire chaos that brought this kind of damage to our side."
She then took out a stack of documents that recorded everything about Eli and her accomplishment in a short period of time.
"Eli… huh…" Crown Prince Ranon glanced at the pages and read Eli's files.
"Proponent of the Passport Act, inventor of countless things. Capable enough to make the Imperial Family and Grandmasters move in her favor…"
"All happened in less than two years after appearing in the capital…" Crown Prince Ranon flashed an eerie smile as he placed his hand under his chin.
In his mind, he remembered that time when their eyes met. Something in him stirred, but it was not something threatening.
'Could it be interest?'
"It's amazing how this little woman's words could turn the tables back on their side." He chuckled lightly before he threw the pages on the coffee table once again.
"I really have to meet this person… it seems."
