Chapter 6: Returning Home
Liria felt a flutter of excitement at the thought of telling her parents that she had been to Earth.
She stepped into the room where her parents were staying, and there was her mother’s figure. With a joyful heart, Liria ran over and hugged her tightly.
Elia smiled warmly when she saw Liria and pulled her into a tight embrace.
Elia had two sons, but she had always longed for a daughter more than anything.
Elves typically gave birth to only about two children in their entire lives, and High Elves were even rarer.
So the chances of pregnancy were extremely low.
Elia had finally become pregnant after hundreds of years, and the moment Liria was born, she had been over the moon with happiness.
Especially since Liria was the kind of daughter one could never spoil too much, she was far cuter than any other elf.
Liria had developed coffee and the subspace bag, turning Eleas into the richest kingdom in the kingdom.
She also provided job opportunities to all elves, allowing every single one of them to live comfortably.
There had never been such good public sentiment toward the elves in history.
“Mother.”
“Our daughter? Mother? Call me Mom.”
Elia had disliked Liria calling her “Mother” ever since she came of age.
But Liria had started calling her Mom after her coming-of-age ceremony.
“Mom, Liria went to Earth.”
“Earth? What’s that?”
Elia tilted her head at the unfamiliar word.
She had lived in Eleas for thousands of years and traveled across the entire continent of Selenia, but she had never heard of a place called Earth.
The things Liria said next were shocking even to Elia, who had lived for thousands of years.
“Earth is another planet. Not this planet Selenia.”
“Another planet?”
“Yes, Mom. Another planet.”
The people of Selenia knew that Selenia was a spherical planet orbiting the sun.
Some had even wondered whether there might be other planets with life besides Selenia.
But they believed magic could never reach another planet.
Elia wondered if the place Liria had gone was truly another planet.
Or had they mistaken the unknown continent for a planet?
She couldn’t bring herself to say it in front of her daughter.
She didn’t want Liria to feel sad knowing her mother didn’t believe her.
Liria decided to show the foods she had received instead of explaining further.
Showing the otherworldly foods and items would be far more convincing than words.
Elia examined the strange bags Liria had taken out.
They were all sealed in unfamiliar packaging, so she had no idea how to open them.
Liria chose to show the potato snack first.
“This is a snack made from potatoes. Try it.”
Liria opened the bag, picked up a piece of the snack, and brought it to Elia’s mouth.
Elia was overjoyed that Liria was feeding her, but she hesitated when she saw the unknown snack.
Since it was Liria’s food, she placed it in her mouth without hesitation.
The crispy texture and salty, nutty flavor spread across her tongue.
It was surprisingly delicious compared to the snacks she had eaten before.
“What is this? It tastes really good!”
“It’s delicious?”
“Our daughter brought something delicious from Earth.”
“Hehe.”
Elia was so proud of Liria that she could barely contain her happiness.
She smiled brightly and stroked Liria’s hair, and Liria returned a sweet smile.
Having such a cute daughter who accomplished such amazing things made Elia incredibly happy.
Perhaps they could even exchange with Earth now.
She still had many questions about how Liria had reached Earth, but she knew it was because of Liria’s outstanding spatial magic talent.
Elia was so proud as a mother to have such a talented and adorable daughter.
She hugged Liria tightly and stroked her head.
“Mom. Hehe.”
“Our daughter.”
Liria hugged Elia back.
Liria loved her mother who loved her so deeply.
Memories from Earth had always been lonely, spent alone until the end.
She was endlessly grateful to the parents who had given birth to her in another world and loved her.
In the other world, she had always been surrounded by cuteness, so there had never been any loneliness.
“Mom, there are more. When Dad and the brothers come, share them with them.”
“Yes. Our daughter.”
Liria began telling Elia about the business she planned to start on Earth.
She explained about the women she had met on Earth and how to make money there.
Eleas coffee had been highly rated on Earth, and she was certain it would be a wonderful business.
“Yes. Our daughter. If it gets hard, always tell me.”
“Yes. Mom. Hehe.”
“Our cute daughter.”
Liria felt happy at the thought of succeeding on Earth and sharing all the delicacies from Earth with her family.
She wanted her family to be happy as long as she was.
She heard a knock at the door outside, so she opened it.
“Hello. Aunt. Liria hello.”
“Silvia came?”
“Silvia, unnie.”
Liria walked over to Silvia and hugged her.
Silvia was one of the things Liria loved the most.
Silvia was still a young Silver Dragon hatchling.
Dragons and High Elves were close, so when Liria was born, Silvia had been invited.
At first sight, Silvia fell head over heels for Liria’s cuteness.
As the youngest hatchling, Silvia was overjoyed to have a younger sister.
Silvia loved how Liria always called her “unnie” and followed her, so cute and adorable.
Moreover, Liria had developed coffee and shown it to the dragons.
Eleas coffee perfectly matched the dragons’ tastes.
The dragons who could drink Eleas coffee every day because of Liria valued her even more.
Originally, Silvia had liked Liria, but she liked her even more after the coffee.
“Perfect timing. Silvia can help our daughter.”
“Eh? Me?”
“Unnie, will you help Liria?”
Silvia saw Liria’s sparkling eyes and had no intention of refusing.
She would do anything for Liria’s request.
Liria took out the only cake and shared it with Elia and Silvia.
“Mom, Silvia unnie, there’s only one. Let’s eat it secretly before Dad and the brothers come.”
“Huhu, our daughter is too cute.”
“So lovely.”
Silvia looked at such Liria with a hehe smile, unable to hold back her cuteness.
Was happiness really like this just by looking?
Silvia couldn’t resist loving Liria so much.
Liria loved Silvia who liked her.
She hugged Silvia tightly, and Silvia stroked Liria’s hair.
“First, I’ll explain about the ingredients of this food.”
Liria began explaining the raw materials to both of them.
Since food ingredients are subjective, she had no intention of forcing anyone to eat something they disliked.
She thought it was wrong to secretly feed meat to vegetarians or pretend worms were regular meat.
“Actually, it’s made using milk.”
“Milk? The milk poor humans drink?”
“Yes, Earth’s milk is high quality. It’s on a completely different level from ours.”
“Earth?”
Silvia tilted her head at the word “Earth.”
When Liria wasn’t there, where had she gone alone?
Liria had promised to always be by her side after coming of age and leaving the Eleas forest, but she had gone alone to a place called Earth that she had never heard of.
If anything happened to Liria, could she stay sane?
Silvia bit her lip tightly, relieved that Liria was safe.
“Earth is not the Selenia planet, but another planet, Silvia unnie.”
“Another planet?”
Silvia couldn’t hide her surprise at the words “another planet.”
Liria had done it again.
Liria knew Liria had immense magic talent, but succeeding in spatial movement to another planet was beyond belief.
She had known Liria had outstanding spatial magic talent, but she hadn’t expected this level.
Silvia believed anything Liria said.
Even spatial movement to another planet beyond common sense.
Elia and Silvia cut the chocolate cake on the plate into small pieces and ate it with a fork.
The soft texture and sweet flavor of the cream cake was perfect.
“This is really delicious.”
“It’s really delicious.”
“It would pair well with coffee.”
“I think so too.”
