Aster's day was neither difficult nor long. Actually, it went by really quickly. He also got to meet the few friends of the Gardening Club that Ellery had actually liked. After meeting them, Aster liked them as well; two of them were guides, and one of them was a regular person.

One of the guides he got along with was named Liáng Hua (梁花). In Aster's understanding, she looked like someone of Chinese descent. Liáng Hua had long black hair that was always in a bun. She was also pretty short, barely reaching Aster's chin. Once she talked about gardening and making stabilizers, however, she never stopped talking, similar to her guinea pig quantum beast that squeaked a lot when it was excited. She was also one of the few B-ranked guides with a potential of S-rank.

As for the other guide, his name was Silve Forrest. From Aster's understanding, he looked like someone from Eastern Europe. He had light brown hair and forest-green eyes. Standing at a similar height to Liáng Hua, he was small and cute, just like his hamster quantum beast. While he wasn't the best at gardening, he was quick with making stabilizers. He was a C-ranked guide with A-rank potential.

As for the ordinary person in the group, his name was Yang Saem (양샘). The spiritual energy he gave off was on par with A-ranked guides and sentinels, so he decided to focus on cultivating plants for stabilizers. According to Aster, he appeared to be someone of Korean descent. His short, black hair was always well-maintained in a two-block hairstyle that matched his face well. While he may have been the tallest of the group, he was also the quietest, rarely talking. Even though he didn't say much, he still enjoyed the company of his friends.

With Ellery's help, Aster was able to invite them out to eat. It was just to hang out and get to know them and the gardening club they were all in.

The three didn't mind it and were quite happy to get close to Ellery. They were friends with him before, but ever since Airi began to hang around Ellery, they had begun to grow a bit more distant. They were glad Airi was no longer in the picture and could freely get to know Ellery. Planning to meet up over the weekend, Aster hoped it would go well...

Later that day, Marshal Caecius went back to his office in the First Fleet's headquarters. As they had always been considered the sword of the Imperial Family, the headquarters was located near the Imperial Palace.

He sat at his desk and listened to his adjutant talk about several important military matters like their plans moving forward, the territories they oversee, and things of that nature.

The adjutant's name was Ito Akimitsu. He's an S-ranked sentinel who hasn't reached his full potential. While he did have SS-ranked potential, it was incredibly difficult to actually achieve SS-rank. It was still a question of whether or not he would be able to reach that rank in this lifetime, showing how difficult it was to advance in rank. His quantum beast was a black bear, but he didn't look as big as one. Though he was tall, he wasn't the widest. The only thing that matched his quantum beast was his black hair and eyes.

Since he had regular guide appointments, he didn't show physical signs of corruption like Marshal Caecius.

As he was listening, he put his hands in his pockets and felt something cold touch his skin. When he took it out, he finally remembered about the stabilizers he was given earlier that day.

"Marshal? Did you finally find some stabilizers that work? If you did, have you gotten into contact with the guide who makes them?"

Akimitsu talked quite fast and didn't miss a beat while asking questions.
