She opened the door to the house and I headed there going through towards the dining hall.
'I wonder what the food will be today.'
"Hum... Olivia how old are you?"
She halted, facing me, "I'm a 20-year-old young servant," her words ended, finishing with a brief smile.
"How long have you been working as a maid?"
"Since my parents died when I was 7 and welcomed by the maids that work here, I then became an apprentice," I approached my hand, patting her hair causing her cheeks to turn red.
"It must've been hard to lose someone important that young. I've been in your place many times before."
"Wasn't the leader born like two weeks ago?"
"Ah, yes, but I was blessed by the system with knowledge and memories," I put a finger in front of my nose signaling for her to keep quiet about it, to my relief, her head nodded in accordance with my request.
Her eyes started glimmering with curiosity to what she asked very softly, "why did the system choose you to be born in a place like this if you were already in a different... place? World?"
'A good assumption but very far,' I approached her, close enough to touch her ear with my lips, whispering. "The system has asked me to be the savior of the fairy forest. In 10 years very bad things will start happening that will destroy us all if I fail."
Even with this, she turned her face slowly at me smiling, mimicking my gesture, along with a quiet tone.
"From what I've been told by my older sister Anita," she touched my cheek with her hand, blushing more than she already was. "I believe we're in the right hands."
"Blood sister?" I asked, finding it to be a great surprise, causing a giggle to leave her tiny lips.
"The leader could say that," she kept moving towards the dining hall feeling amused, bouncing her ass cheeks unknowingly as she climbed, making me lick my lips.
'Seems like Anita left me with a troublesome younger sister,' I grinned enjoying her personality.
After a while, I got to the table and started eating some colored worms with lettuce, smashing their heads with two of my fingers, avoiding them to mess with the greenery.
'From what I understood so far we recover physical and magical energy with eating.'
"Olivia, how do we eat mana?" my eyes searched over her face, avoiding momentarily the ugly sight of my meal. I found her playing with her fingers calmly, looking at them, and when I spoke, her lingering gaze crossed my own.
"In 10 years, perhaps earlier, the leader will receive a skill that will enable eating mana. It's important to know that eating mana will only recover the magical energy, leaving us tired during great periods of time."
"Meaning for those who use magic and arrows it would work, but the ones in direct combat who need to move a lot more would certainly be deadly."

"I suppose so?" She tilted her head, brushing away my question out of her mind as there was no prior knowledge about war or tactics.
"Don't worry. I spend a lot of time talking to myself. it helps me think."
Her head bowed lightly, appreciating me in some way as her thoughts danced, analyzing the information she had gathered from being close to me, enjoying herself.
'Now I understand why sister had so much trouble being with Flamera. Nowadays she reveres her, believing in this young one's brilliant mind. If she has memories of a past life, how old would she be in total? Well, nonetheless even with knowledge if you're not smart enough to use it you'd be useless, but our leader seems to be something else, truly.'
"Leader, why would the system send a savior to our race alone? Are we special in some way? Since there are other ones outside I feel like they could get one too, right?"
"Great point and you happen to be extremely correct, however, there are without a doubt more saviors. But I believe they are beyond the great dark walls getting stronger on their own means preparing for the great war to come," I took a bite at a blue worm.
"Why would the system do that? I mean... isn't it on our side? Unless... it's not on anyone's?"
"It does have a side but the system is not the ruler. It's the figures that we met during that battle, those in dark clothes, they're the true gods."
"Meaning that there're more of those in dark clothes?"
"Yes, indeed, I only know one of them. I'm the representative of the green worm, and I believe it to be a fair fight among all of them."
"To think the owners of this world would cause us to fight among each other..."
"Correct, but it is what it is. We can only do what we can to get stronger and eventually raise to match our opponents and defeat them so that we can live peacefully afterward," Olivia bowed a bit lower than usual, showing me her cleavage along with a small pair of boobs, causing me to smirk.
'It's amazing how we fairies are practically adults when we're born, is it a perk of our race? I wonder how humans who usually take a while to be born will do at the age of 10 perhaps they have different bonuses that balance towards me unless they don't since they're a lot bigger than us fairies normally.'
I finished eating, giving way to the knowledge of my next step.
"I'll head back to the basement and teach Bernard about crafting, hopefully getting someone to help me with my work," I walked closer to Olivia, smiling happily, upon reaching her she gets up, standing still in front of me. At that, I pass my hand on her white maid outfit, one of the few that I made. It moved from her cheek all the way to the waist, stopping at her bottom, pressing on it briefly, causing her cheeks to become flushed.
"I'll meet you once I finish cleaning here leader," her hands shook, and her gaze diverted from mine, in a failed attempt to hide her embarrassment.
"Sure thing," I smiled charmingly making her even redder.
A while later I arrived at the basement, finding my father staring at the spinning sewing wheel.
