Prologue- A Morning Before School

"Illayaka! It's time for you to get ready! We have to leave soon!"

Her glossy silver hair fluttered around her waist.

Her eyes fluttered like radiant crystals.

An extremely beautiful girl said those words while pacing around the room, waiting for her daughter to get ready for school.

Shito Mahinu walked out of his room, heading towards the girl pacing around in a circle.

"Why are you pacing around, Tenka?" he asked. "We still got thirty minutes until we have to show up to the office."

"I want our daughter to meet her Aunty, so I want her to hurry. Not only that, but we have to go to school today. We have been away from school for a month so missing another day would be too much."

As she said those words, Shito began to walk towards the couch to sit down. Once he was sitting on the couch, he looked at the stack of papers on the desk and started to organize them… And while organizing carrying out his assignment, he happened to glance at the mirror, where he happened to spot his own reflection.

The flaxen, light sandy-blond hair stretched down his back. A beautiful face with perfectly balanced features that transcend the term 'otherworldly.' In the center of his face was a pair of caramel eyes that gave him a sense of divinity.

Indeed. The face that he was looking at was his own, and he looked even better than some of the girls in the world. Not only that but his beauty was beyond what anyone could try to achieve with beauty products online. To be honest, it was something that couldn't be achieved unless you were naturally born with it.

He had the beauty that would make him fall in love with himself, but he had someone else he was interested in. So, falling for himself is something he isn't interested in.

"I am ready, Mama and Papa!"

A young girl who had a similar hair color to him had come rushing into the room. Not only did she have his hair color, but the young girl also had a similar eye color to Tenka.

The young girl's name was Illya Mahinu. She was wearing an oversized blue jacket, which sort of resembled a rabbit theme with a pair of rabbit ears on the hood. The coat had some frails on it, with a starry-like pattern. She was wearing a matching pair of blue boots. Under the jacket, she was wearing a white dress.

"It seems like you are ready to meet your aunt," Shito said, rising from the couch. "Well, let's get going then."

Illya started to rub her hands together, slightly nervous before asking, "Do you think Aunty is going to like me…?"

"Of course. She has no reason to hate you. My sister loves kids anyways, so there is nothing for you to worry about."

Illya smiled brightly before rushing over to her parents, grabbing both of their hands. "Ok, Mama and Papa. Let's go already!"

"Ok," he let out a small sigh before his gaze landed on Tenka. "You seem to be happy about something. What's on your mind?"

Tenka was standing there with a bright smile on her face. She hadn't said anything for a while, but her face clearly showed that she was happy about something.

"I am just happy to be able to spend some time with my family. Is there anything wrong with that…?" Tenka asked.

Shito shook his hand. "No, there is nothing wrong with that because I feel the same way as you two, but that's something we can discuss later."

However, before he began to move, he opened the palm of his hand, and a magic formation formed in his hand, creating a bag of cookies for them to eat on their way to school.

With magic, anything in the world could be created if you had the imagination to do so. He had creation magic, but it was something that most people had except he could do it to a higher degree.

"Thank you, Papa," she said, taking a bag of cookies out of his hand. "These cookies seemed like they are going to be good."

After a couple of seconds passed, Tenka took the other bag of cookies out of his hand and smiled. "Thank you very much."

"..."

"..."

"..."

And then, the group fell silent and Shito started guiding the group to the door.

"...It's time to leave now."

Today was not the first time that they would be heading to Lemore Academy, but the same couldn't be said for their daughter.

Illya felt like she wasn't going to be liked by her aunt even with the words her father said to her, but she couldn't act like a coward and avoid her forever.

At that moment, her emotions started to boil up, and she began gripping her parents' hands tightly. However, since she wasn't using too much mana, her grip was doing much to hurt them—but that didn't matter because she was releasing everything that was building up in her so she could meet her aunty in a more confident manner.
