How about a bubble bath? It smells really good, doesn't it? My feathers will be soft.

I hummed a song, feeling the cool breeze.

"Are you that excited?"

"Pii!"

"Shall we go now?"

"Pii!"

When I urged, Rosaria sped up her pace a bit with a small smile.

Looking into the distance, I could see a wide open forest that I've never seen on these grounds.

There was a rock in front of my nose.

As I turned my head and looked around, I realized one thing.

As Baon said, no life was felt here.

How is that possible in such a wide and deep forest?

"This is your first time in the forest, isn't it?"

"Pii."

"This is the private property of the Astrophel family. As you can see, there are no creatures. It is prohibited because there is a possibility that someone may enter under a disguise."

So that's why it's like this. Turns out it was a huge forest.

"Since this place is safe, the young masters train here. I understand you have a training schedule today as well..."

Rosaria slanted her head.

"He's not here today. Maybe he's out hunting."

"Pii?"

For a moment, I thought I misheard.

From what I know, I didn't think the timing of my birth was much different from when they were born.

They're already hunting?

Rosaria grinned as she opened her mouth in surprise.

"The masters have already completed their humanization. You don't know what humanization is yet, do you? You can be human like me."

"... Pii."

"You'll be able to do it soon, too."

"Pii."

I'm no good at hunting, so I'm done with humanization.

The young masters must have had cheating abilities.

But if I work hard, I can do it!

I gathered my will and curled my wings tightly, but...

"Pii?"

What's that?

"What's wrong, baby?"

"Pii."

A huge tree had fallen miserably. Then the next tree, and the tree after that.

Large trees that looked at least decades old had fallen in groups.

Why are these healthy trees being uprooted?

Rosaria looked to where I was pointing and calmly said it was not a problem.

"Ah. The trees must have fallen over after their training. "

Huh?

"This was probably the first young master's doing."

How could a young man who was just born smash a tree like that?

My mouth dropped out of amazement.

"When you grow up, you'll be able to do it, too. By the way, you're a good girl."
