[OP: ]
"Wow…"
"Better than the pictures."
"We wish you a great time."
The manager of the place walked out of the room and Rein and Eon stood at the door, observing the room with happy and surprised looks.
"Nice…"
Rein looked around the place, observing the vast hallway, the large window that was almost like a wall on the other side, a single door near the end of the right side, and three doors on the left side with unique carvings on them.
"Pretty good," Eon nodded with approval as he looked around the big hall of their place which had comfortable couches, a magical chandelier illuminating the room, pretty paintings decorating the velvet walls, a piano sitting on one corner of the room, a circular carpet in the middle middle of the room, a few shelves and paintings before the piano and beside the doors, a fireplace behind the couches, and few shelves filled with books on the right side of the fireplace.
It was a nice place and though the shelves were currently filled with some stuff, they were going to renovate the room for them anyway so they didn't have to do anything by themselves.
So, as soon as the manager walked away, Rein grabbed Eon's hand, dragged him to one of the couches before them, and pushed him down on it, looking down at him with a happy gaze.
"Hello mister fiancé."
She was smiling right now, and he knew very well what this smile meant so… he prepared himself and, after a while of cuddling, he got up and looked at his fiancée who was hugging the soft but not perfectly soft pillow.
"Hello miss fiancée. Get up. Let's look around and go. Quin must be waiting."
But she was smiling at him while he was saying that, in another wrong way, exactly meaning the same thing as a while before.
So, after another long kissing session, both of them got up, tied up their hair and clothes, and with a still unsatisfied expression on her face, they first walked towards the left side and opened the first door with an image of a magnifying glass drowned on the door.
"UwU? Pretty good actually. I didn't expect it would be this well maintained." Rein was surprised however, Eon wasn't as happy as her to see this place.
"There is no security system here, the humidity is a little on the higher side, the temperature management magic they used is practically garbage, the utensils are pretty decent but they are used so I can't use them. They don't even have any high-end devices.
This place needs a lot more work than just some renovations."
He sighed, shook his head, left one of Celes's clones in there, and closed the doors.
"The library better not be like this." He complained and she shook her head at her handsome darling.
They walked out, passed by an empty shelf, reached the second door with a unique magical book's design, and Rein opened the doors.
"..."
"Looks like we wasted our money on this once Uriel."
Before them was a large place, full of shelves filled with books, and from even Rein's perspective, this was a pretty decent place.
And they had even used spatial expansion magic in this place so it was far better than probably many personal house libraries. However, Eon's standards were probably a little too high for things like these.
"We will fix this, together. Don't worry." Rein reassured him while petting his back and closed the doors without waiting any longer.
"It is more concerning that way. I'm afraid of what countless things we will do there aside from fixing that place."
Eon was worried and his worries were obviously natural. We were talking about Rein, who had engaged him in a certain activity twice in the last half hour, and he knew those weren't the end as they had yet to check the bedroom, kitchen, and their big balcony, the places where the two of them will engage in some certain activities more than anywhere else.
He was worried about her and about himself, but his pretty darling was smiling excitedly the same way as she was when they entered here.
She was cheerful too and the gloomy expression on Eon's face turned into a similar cheerful one as soon as she opened the door with a unique pattern that resembled a chemical formula and they entered inside.
"Wow…" He was surprised. Her Eon was surprised. And the room, their kitchen he was surprised by wasn't much of a high-tech, fancy, amazing, or lavish place.
"Wow!" It was a normal-looking place that was just like any other big kitchen in a fancy restaurant and the kitchen was comparatively smaller than the open island of the kitchen as well as the big windows on the other side of the room and the vast area with a few dining tables and chairs.
"This is good~!"
He really was so excited to see this kitchen that he ran inside, started checking the place, examined the cooking area, checked the tables and chairs, and even looked around the whole place with his sharp eyes.
And yes, Rein had no idea why he was so excited over this so normal-looking place, she knew this was one of those times when he was in a world of his own, thinking about things that weren't even related to this kitchen of theirs.
"Awww~."
But he was excited and happily smiling right now, and this smile on his face heated the strong heart of his thirty Rein.
"Come here…"
She walked up to him, climbed and sat down on the kitchen island, pulled his supposed head closer, and bit his shaking lips that still had the marks of their engagement from just a while before.
"Alright enough."
But this time, Eon managed to pull back quickly, picked her up, and walked out of their kitchen that he was going to turn into a place where he would love to cook for a large number of people.
So, out of the kitchen, the two of them first walked towards the wall-like window that lead them to their big balcony and as soon as they were out, they could see the sun going down the horizon, the clouds that seemed too close from their place, the moon on the other side that was just starting to rise, the chairs and a big table in the middle of this place, and lastly a few plants placed all around the big balcony, giving the open area filled with freshness a better atmosphere than inside their place.
"It's fresh…" she said as she looked around and he nodded at her, looked at the table and the chairs in the middle of this place used simple telekinesis and moved them to the edge of the balcony, and shook his head in denial while looking at her excited eyes.
"No. Not today. We will first fix this whole place and only then have a good dinner here at good nighttime."
He was serious, and he was requesting her to accept at least this much. And she could see her darling's sincerity, so she agreed and the two walked out and walked towards the last and the core room with a fancy bed drowned on the wooden enchanted doors on their left side.
"Haaa… ok."
The two of them looked at each other, took a deep breath, nodded at each other, and then opened the door with a hopeful expression… which turned into a solid frown as soon as the image of the inside of their bedroom, which was supposed to be the most special place for the two of them, entered their special eyes.
"I hate it."
"It's despicable."
"It would be pretty good as it is but… they ruined it."
"I am going to kill that manager bastard."
"Let's… let's just go."
"Yeah…"
The room was dark and only illuminated by the lights of many candles lit all around the place.
There was a big bed at the very back of the room and there was a pretty large window on the left side of it.
There were a few chairs before the window and on the right side, there was a fireplace as well as a door leading to their big bathroom.
There was also a full-size mirror and a place with a lot of cosmetics that Rein hated with all her heart, and then there was the shit they pulled to ruin a decent place.
The room was dim, but they had lit candles everywhere. There was a big window but it was also blocked by a curtain. The room was good and the bed was made of fine materials too however, there were rose petrels all around the bed, the curtains they used were all red and white, the pillow covered were pink, and the other colors used in other things were also either a stunning warm color or a contrasting cool colors.
It might have been pretty attractive in the eyes of any normal couple but two of them saw more than what they could and understood what even most of them could ever fathom.
And the two of them were so dissatisfied with all of it that they just closed the door, walked out of their place, claimed an elevator and went to the ground floor, found the manager, and put their hands on both of his shoulders.
"By the time we come back, I want the bedroom changed from how that fucked up place looks."
She was directly whispering it in his ears while squeezing his shoulders and there was a sudden shock, and fear visible on his face.
"Take this. Do the changes exactly written according to this. And… I'm very dissatisfied, Fayz."
Eon looked straight into his eyes with his calm eyes, which were different from Rein's enraged eyes, and even though he didn't pressure his shoulder like Rein, the pressure and authority he felt from him at that moment were far more than anything he had felt in a long, long time.
"Don't repeat this mistake."
He tapped his shoulder twice and the two of them walked out, leaving the still-stunned manager at his own fate.
He didn't understand what had just happened and what was that strange feeling he felt from those two but he, at that very moment, knew at least two things…
"Guards! Call Murin, Jake, and Zhou Fan! Tell them to leave whatever they are doing and come meet me on the twelfth floor!"
First of all, he had to do what they had told him, and second of all, never do something that would dissatisfy these two individuals ever again.
"Yes sir!"
He had learned his lesson in this small interaction and he had gotten more than enough information about them to know what were the best actions to take when dealing with this particular couple.
They weren't some normal people that he could categorize or even fathom even with his decades of experience.
They were some of those rare shooting stars, those rare storms who one only encounters by the funny play of fate, but even that mere encounter was enough to cause a tremendous change in the serene life of those fate-blessed individuals.
He had to do many things if he wanted to become someone who was blessed by this fated encounter and not some fool who didn't even understand the peculiarity of those two's attention.
So now, he and the most proficient employees of this great dormitory had to quickly work, and while they were working, the ones who caused such a storm in all their schedules were walking through the streets of the sky island, going to their predestined meeting place to meet some certain people including their first friend Quin.
And talking about Quin and taking the title of this chapter into account, she had settled well in one of the good dorm rooms of the Leviathan dormitory and though she didn't have anyone she knew there, she was going to start learning the common language as well as the other important language to better interact with the others around her.
She was smart and had a great grasp of a primordial language so learning modern languages would be pretty easy for her to learn.
She had her friends too so she would be fine, so she was doing well.
And the same could be said for the others on the island who didn't face any great problems on their first day on this island.
Carla, Alf, Chry, and Zoe were in their villa on the eastern side of the city which though was pretty far from the academy, they could travel there pretty easily if they ran there as a routine exercise.
Prince Alph, Princess Isabella, and Prince Claudius also lived in the imperial family's villa but the three were in different houses so they knew their interactions were going to be just as limited as they used to be when they lived in the palace.
The other house captains and vice captains had also settled in either their dorms or in the places owned by them or their families, or someplace that they paid more than necessary to just live in.
Some who didn't want to pay or didn't like the dorms and houses made the open areas of the island, the trees, and garden of their academy, or the roofs of other's houses their new home.
And lastly, there were also some who made the big and important places on the island like the mage towers or the adventurer's association their new residences or were given residences in their buildings by someone else, by someone who had sponsored them…
That was the students and their living situations and commonly speaking, they all were fine and doing pretty well compared to the other 'common' batches of the previous years from theirs.
They were well, good, and smiling on this sky island in the far high sky but… a certain someone, a certain person, a certain young girl that one couldn't help but love, the most amazing, the best character in this story, our beloved Anna, wasn't doing as well as most of them.
