Among the villagers, a girl who seemed to be around Nami's age approached him. She greeted him in a casual and friendly manner, then turned her gaze towards Yuru and asked, "Who's this?"
Nami introduced Yuru as his sister, and the girl, named Cruset, responded with joyful enthusiasm, "Oh, that's wonderful! This is our first time meeting isn't it, I have heard about you from your brother and you look really cute."
(Ohh! really she's pretty.)
"My name is Yuru, it's nice to meet you." Yuru greets her with a subtle smile.
With a gentle and softer tone, Cruset reached out her hand, intending to pat Yuru on the head. However, her gesture was quickly halted by Nami, who explained, "Don't do that, Yuru does not like being touched. I can't explain why but that's how she is."
Cruset, understanding Nami's concern, withdrew her hand without questioning it and introduced herself to Yuru, her friendly demeanor remaining unchanged.
Cruset extended an invitation to Yuru, asking if she'd like to tour the village, but Yuru instantly declines, explaining that she isn't interested in exploring the village.
Nami couldn't help but laugh from the sidelines, and he quipped, "Of course you're not. But I already knew that. I didn't bring you here to show you the village; I have something else in mind. Follow me."
He instructed Kael and Cedric to remain by the caravan and keep a vigilant watch, reassuring them that he could contact them if needed.
With Yuru following him, and Cruset also in tow, Nami led the way. Yuru couldn't help but wonder why Cruset was accompanying them, so she whispers quietly to Nami, "Why is she following us? does she has no other things to do?"
Nami chuckled and replied, "Let her be. She won't be a bother." Yuru playfully teased her brother, "So, is she your girlfriend or something?"
Nami's laughter rang out as he responded, "Haha, you're correct, actually."
Yuru's expression shifted to one of surprise and intrigue. She couldn't help but wonder if Nami's main reason for bringing her to this village was to introduce her to his girlfriend. As she contemplated this, she thought, "Why like this? Couldn't he have brought her to the Royal Palace? Or is there another reason for this excursion?"
Yuru stopped and decided to reintroduce herself to Cruset, this time in a more polite manner. She offered a friendly smile and said, "I'm Princess Yuru. Nice to meet you."
Cruset responded calmly, "No worries, Princess Yuru. Nami mentioned that you're like this, so I already expected it."

As they continued on their journey, they found themselves walking up a tower carved from a single stone, a spiralling staircase that led to the top. Yuru, somewhat puzzled, asked, "Where are we going? Do we have to climb to the top? Is it even worth it?"
Nami replied with confidence, "It's definitely worth it. I think you'll love it."
As they ascended the tower, Cruset couldn't help but be curious about something, so she asked, "Princess Yuru, can you use magic?" Yuru looked at her then replied, saying that she had mastered all the basic magic spells but hadn't yet tried her specialised White magic spells.
"I see," Cruset responded. Yuru couldn't help but wonder why Cruset had asked that question. "Weird..." she thought.
(Perhaps she was just curious.)
"We have reached," Nami announced. Yuru gazed ahead, her eyes widening in surprise. At the top of the tower stood a Spell Library, a sight that left her in awe.
Nami, noticing her astonishment, commented, "You know, Yuru, mastering all the basic magic at the age of 7 is not something everyone can achieve."
Cruset joined in the conversation, her smile beaming, as she added, "Yes, Princess Yuru, it is quite wonderful. As you said, you haven't tried your Speciality magic yet. Well, this might be the best opportunity to do just that."
Yuru stood there, her heart brimming with anticipation, ready to explore the Spell Library and discover the magic that awaited her.
