"It's not a bad thing to laugh once in a while," Rio commented, turning left to say to the Blonde-haired beauty.
Helia's gaze fell into his sea-green eyes but the girl didn't say anything. She had stopped bickering with the boy as she promised herself to not dislike him and was trying her best to not give him reasons to hate her.
As the trio had already decided where they had to go, they started to discuss about the preparation for the upcoming tournament and the adventure.
"You two should store necessary things for your stay at the island because the journey to the laughing alligator forest may take you three to four days and coming back will require the same amount of time," Helia said as she estimated the span of the period they would spend outside the empress villa.
"Is it that far away?" Nyla asked in surprise.
"Yeah, it takes at least three days to reach that place from our nearest shelter and there is no other shelter in that region so our only chance is to ride the mount for 3-4 days, considering the time we would need to stop for resting on our way to that laughing alligator forest," Helia responded.
"We will talk about it tomorrow. It's already very late now, I will help them pack for the island after we wake up. We should sleep now." Lia said as the night was getting darker and they needed to properly rest.
They were done with their conversation, Helia returned back to her room and Rio and Lia went to their bedroom to sleep.
The boy thought it was better to spend the night with his wife alone as they would be apart for a while now. The national military school tournament was going to take one month after this laughing alligator forest adventure.
Nyla understood his reason as well and didn't show any bitterness as she was naturally going to stay with Rio more than Lia after tomorrow for one and a half months and they would have enough alone time for themselves.
The next day after they had their tea together, Lia asked Rio and Nyla to wait in their bedroom as she was preparing the duo's stuff for the journey.
Yami walked into the living room, carrying many water bottles in a box. She placed them on the ground in front of Lia and company, who were sitting on the couch.
She was keeping coming and bringing more items which caused a big pile to accumulate in the bedroom of Nyla.
Lia had ordered her early morning to buy these things from the city center as she wanted to completely prepare Nyla and Rio for their journey to the island for their upcoming National military school tournament.
"Okay, let's get started. We have today to pack, Yami has bought all the daily essentials things, so we don't have to worry about shopping." The white-haired beauty explained as she saw Nyla was confused seeing the pile of goods that the chief maid was bringing to their room for the last ten minutes.
Rio and Nyla nodded and gave their affirmation as they knew this was going to help them in the future and they won't have to worry about the resources in the national military school tournament.
"You need to hurry and put these things in your own spatial storage for your long stay on the island and Each of you will need half," Lia said as she instructed them to store the things in their storage.
"Why big sis? We will be staying together so only If Rio keeps them then it should be fine." Nyla asked in puzzlement.
"You don't know what situation may arise so it's better to prepare beforehand, even if you stay together there, these items may come in handy in the future as your spatial beast soul storage will keep the consumable items fresh," Lia said.
The white-haired beauty pulled out the box filled with some containers, "These are the food for the future. We asuras store all our food in these special containers when we go on long outings."
Nyla and Rio both used their storing skill to place the half-half share in their spatial storage.
Next, Lia pointed towards the box filled with water bottles as there were more than two hundred, "This many should be enough to keep you two stay hydrated."
She continued to pull out boxes on the ground filled with clothes, bedding, pillows, and other important items. "These are for comfort. You'll need to be warm and comfortable while you're on the island."
Rio and Nyla nodded as they saw how the white-haired beauty had bought everything for their journey and didn't speak anything. She was doing it for their well-being and it made them happy.
After twenty minutes, the ground became empty as they had stored all the stuff inside their spatial storage one by one. Lia gazed over them with a relaxed smile as she was done with her task.
Lia looked as if a doting mother sending their two kids on their first trip to a foreign place as she was making sure to take care of everything they might need.
"All done, now you just need to get ready for the laughing alligator forest." She took a breath of relief when they were done packing for the tournament.
"Thanks, Big Sis," Nyla said to show her gratitude.
After one hour, The blonde-haired beauty returned to the Empress Villa, and they all left for Teleporter tower together. Lia came along with them to bid them farewell and wish them luck.
Helia used [Teleporter Glyph] for Requiem Isle Shelter where Laughing Alligator forest was present and the trio vanished into a spatial rift.
