CONTENT OF THE LETTER

To be honest, we really wanted to read the letter, but we knew there were restrictions. However, Axcellary gave the letter to me, and the three of us immediately read it by looking at each other.

The contents of the letter

"You go to the mermaid island, from there you will know the real facts. I left this letter to you because I believe you can show me the clues. All I apologise for is that with you leaving the palace there may be chaos but then the chaos in this world will end soon. I just want to reconcile the Land of Heaven.Go there and you will find something that makes you know who is behind the mastermind.To my crowned son, I entrust your sister. Guard and protect her. Because only you have this moment and forever. "

I cried with emotion when she predicted that she would die soon. "Alright, according to the will, we will go to the mermaid island."

"Sis, I want to come with you!" Alheria had not left yet, so we could only stare at Axcell."

"Go in peace and return with happy news. I'm here waiting for you all." After that, we went out and waved goodbye to Alheria, even though I was sure that there was no other choice for Axcellary than to leave his only sister. But, this was an order mandated to him to protect the Land of Heaven.

"Are we going on foot?" I thought about Daffa's question because from here to there it takes around two days, and even then, if there are obstacles, it might take more time.

"We won't be going there on foot but we will be teleporting." My eyes widened as I found out that the Elves are a nation that can teleport to other dimensions and also move places in a short time.

"Alright now we'll go to my room and we'll teleport to the mermaid island." After that, we went straight into Axcel's room, and he started casting a spell on the wall.

Before we entered the teleportation world, I looked at Axcel's room which was spacious and neatly organised. He also had a few belongings in his room. There is a reading room in his room, overlooking the balcony, which makes me think that this room is the most comfortable one to be used as a reading room and a room at the same time.

Axcell closed his eyes, his lips murmuring some incantations.

I was quite dumbfounded when I realised that we were now going to teleport across space and time.

He had a rounded image and was also pitch black in colour. "Please come inside and you might feel a little dizzy," Axcell said.

"Alright!" we replied in unison.

"Please enter because we teleport in a short time and we must not waste it," he said once and I hesitantly entered. Immediately, I felt as if I was floating and even my head seemed to be spinning.

BRUK

AKHHH

BRUK

BRUK

The three of us fell to the ground quickly, while Axcel just stared at us. We were already on the shore and I was quite surprised to find out that Axcel was able to use teleportation, so it wouldn't take long. However, this time was different because we weren't mermaids and couldn't breathe underwater. "How do we breathe underwater?" I asked, with a very obvious frown on my forehead that made the four of us look at each other.

In the midst of our confusion, we were suddenly surprised when someone's voice was familiar to us. We immediately turned our heads and apparently saw the figure of a fox leaning against a tree. "You guys back here again?" "You again?"

"What are you doing here?" I scratched my itchy head because I honestly didn't want to tell him, but Daffa loudly said that he wanted to enter the mermaid island.

"Can you help me get into the mermaid world?"

"That's easy as long as you follow all my rules." I honestly didn't believe what he said because after all, he was an Elf, so it would be difficult to breathe with gills? But what can be done? With hesitation, we finally nodded our heads.

"Well, if you happen to find a white orchid flower around this mountain, you can hand it over to me and I'll wait until noon." I widened my eyes because I didn't really know what kind of flower it was, and I also just found out that there was an orchid-type flower. Then our eyes all turned towards the fox and the fox looked at Axcel with a mysterious smile.

"Do you know about orchid flowers, Axcel?" I asked, and then he exhaled harshly.

"To be honest, I've never seen the Orchid flower because according to rumours, it grows unpredictably at will and it's also one of the flowers often hunted for herbal medicine because it releases poison very quickly."

"She is indeed a very beautiful flower to look at, but she is also a plant that is difficult to cultivate because she only relies on her environment," hearing the explanation from Axel made us turn our heads towards the fox, and the house just shrugged indifferently.

"That's it, I'll go. Come back before lunchtime, because after that I will go somewhere," hearing the explanation from him made us panic. "We have to look for him right away," I said and they too immediately looked around.

"We still have four hours to find the flower."

I looked at Xavier and he immediately looked at me, making us both turn to Axcell. "What are the characteristics of the flower?" I asked Axcell and he answered by explaining its characteristics.

"Firstly, the orchid flower takes a very long time to reach the perfect flower. Secondly, it does not have a bulging stem. Thirdly, it is a type of plant that adheres to other trees. Fourthly, it is a plant that can grow on rocks. Fifthly, orchid leaves are usually green, but some are speckled and pseudo-reddish. Sixthly, the stalk is generally erect, while some are branched". 

After Axcell told us his characteristics, we immediately split up to find his location, remembering that Axcell said that he was on rocks or living on another tree, so we immediately split up and searched according to these characteristics.

I went west, Daffa went south, Axcellary went west there looking at the rocks which were quite steep but when I arrived at the rocks apparently there weren't any. It took me three hours to search again but I couldn't find the flower. As I ran into Daffa, I saw that she was in the same situation. She was already dripping with sweat, and it seemed like she was almost fainting from exhaustion. "Did you find it?" Dafa asked. Then I sat down on the ground, and Daffa sat beside me, wiping the sweat that kept dripping down his forehead and neck. "I also didn't find it, even though I searched the area for trees. I couldn't find it either."
