Don't Ruin My Nightingale's Trip.

"Swim Suits?"

"You don't know?" Sofia questioned in surprise. Maeve shook her head and Sofia explained.

"Well, though discovered recently, these swimsuits have become insanely popular due to their usefulness. These swimsuits are the set of clothes people use when they visit places where water is involved, like the beach.

They are made from special material which doesn't absorb much water and allows you to swim all you want without having to worry about your clothes" Sofia and explained and Maeve's eyes shined.

She was a woman after all, topics like clothes are always interesting for her, and as for Gracie, she remained silent since most of the explanation went above her head.

"So where can we buy these swimsuits from?" Seeing the excitement in Maeve's eyes, Ace questioned.

"Well, since it is popular for the Juhu Beach, I guess that there must be many shops selling swimsuits in the Hustel District but you can also buy them from here. It will be cheaper that way" Sofia answered.

"Well, we'll just buy it from there, we are already getting late, I don't think we should delay it anymore" Ace replied and Sofia nodded.

Then, under the gazes of the whole Inferno Sword Sect, Ace, Maeve, and Gracie finally left to visit the Juhu beach.

"Phew… that was quite a crowd…" Ace sighed, though he was an Emperor and was used to crowd, it has been a long time since he last dealt with such a huge group and it was tiring for him.

"Papa, when will we arrive at the beach?" Gracie questioned curiously.

"Well, according to your Sister Maya, we should arrive there tonight, then we will settle down in an inn and visit the beach tomorrow morning" Ace explained.

"Okies~"

Of course, Maeve and Ace can fly and reach there within a few seconds but they wanted to enjoy every part of the trip, the traveling included.

And since Gracie was there with them, the traveling was a million times better since she always cheers in excitement whenever she sees something new on the way.

Just like that, their carriage arrived at the entrance of the extreme east of the Espade City, called the Hustel District. The entrance fees were 2 silver coins per person, pretty expensive for normal people but nothing for an Elder like Ace.

The hustle district, being one of the major tourist attractions of the whole country, was very busy compared to the rest of Espade City. Though it was already night, the Hustel district was full of hustle and bustle.

Not only that, but Ace also noticed that half the people here weren't humans. Unlike the rest of Espade City, where humans are in majority, People here were from many different and diverse races. Also, these people were wealthier than normal but Ace deemed that normal since most of the people here were from other cities, some were even from different countries.

As their carriage was moving around the district, it didn't attract much attention as there were many similar or better carriages moving around.

"She is in deep sleep" Ace muttered softly as he patted Gracie's head lovingly.

"I'd be surprised if she wasn't after all that jumping she did" Maeve chuckled.

"But you have to admit, her getting excited about random beast we passed was just adorable"

"It was…" Maeve nodded as she brushed Gracie's hair gently.

"Don't you think it will be faster if we just walk?" Maeve questioned as she noticed that the carriage couldn't move at its usual speed due to the crowd.

Ace nodded and ordered, "Stop the carriage, we will walk from here"

"As you say, Elder Ace" The carriage driver nodded and the carriage stopped.

Ace and Maeve then walked out of the carriage; Ace carrying Gracie who was sleeping on his chest while holding a part of Ace's robes with her small hand.

Ace then looked up and frowned, "Well, not exactly the best weather we could hope for…" Maeve sighed as she glanced at the dark clouds hovering above them. The wind was blowing and it was clear that it will rain soon.

Ace nodded and shook his head before they started walking.

Though their carriage didn't attract much attention, it was impossible for the couple to do the same. As soon as they walked out of the carriage, many, no matter a man or a woman, turned around to give them a second glance.

The men looking at Maeve and the women at Ace, but as usual, the two completely ignored the crowd as if they weren't present in the first place.

"Okay… the Golden Moon Inn, right?" Ace questioned.

"Well, that's what she told"

Ace then pointed towards a random man and called, "Hey you, yes you there… the one with the weird nose, come here" and of course, he wasn't polite at all.

Obviously, the man who was called wasn't some random commoner and was offended by Ace's remark since he noticed others chuckling silently.

"How dare you call me that, little boy? Do you know who I am?"

"Do you know where the Golden Moon Inn is?" As if he didn't hear the man, Ace questioned.

"THE AUD-" Just as the man was about to shout in anger, he suddenly stopped and answered, "Just go straight, skip the first turn and then turn left, you will see a big, golden colored, extravagant looking building, that is the Golden Moon Inn"

Many furrowed their brows due to the sudden change in the ma's attitude but Ace just nodded before tossing a Gold coin at the man and turned around.

Despite many people being there, nobody noticed the slight silvery glow on Maeve's beautiful Crystal blue eyes, which soon faded away.

Ace and Maeve then quickly found the said inn since it was pretty catchy and was also the most popular and expensive inn in the district.

The two entered the Inn and looked around, the inside of the inn was as extravagant as it was from the outside, the floor was made from shiny white marble, there were countless good-looking paintings hung on the wall and everything was clean and tidy.

Ace then walked towards the counter where a mature-looking, beautiful elf was standing with a smile on her face. Ace could tell that she was a professional since the woman didn't show any reaction to them except for the initial shock.

"How can I help you, Sir?" The woman questioned with a professional smile.

"I need a room for 3"

"Oh… we have different rooms with different pric-"

"Just give me the best room you have"

"Oh- Okay, how long do you need the room for, sir?"

"A week"

"That would be 3 Gold and 50 Silver coins"

Ace then gave 4 Gold coins to the woman and the woman smiled before calling another man.

"Take them to the Delight Deluxe"

The women then turned towards Ace and Maeve and smiled, "He will take you to your room, please follow him, sir"

"Also, I wanted to ask about the dinner?" Maeve questioned.

"Ah, you don't have to worry about that, Madam, the dinner will be provided by the Inn after 30 minutes, "

"Alright," Maeve nodded before the 2 followed the man.

"Alright, sir, this is the best room in our inn, the Deluxe Delight, here are the keys, we hope that you enjoy your stay" The man spoke politely. Ace nodded as he took the keys and entered the room.

The room did live up to its name, there was a huge, comfortable-looking bed in the center with red-colored bedsheets. There was a big window with a beautiful view and a couch just near it. The lighting was dim and the room had a pleasant aroma.

Ace sat on the bed and a surprised expression appeared on his face, "This bed is better than the one we have"

"It is?"

"Alright, it's decided, we are buying a bed from here" Ace announced and Maeve just shook her head with a wry smile.

"Should we wake her up?" Maeve questioned.

"Well, she needs to eat dinner"

Ace replied before he shook Gracie gently, "Gracie, Gracie, it's time to wake up"

"umu…"

"Gracie… wake up, we are here…"

"Hmm?"

"We arrived… wake up"

"We arrived…?" Gracie questioned sleepily.

"We did"

"We arrived!?" Gracie questioned as she woke up. She then looked around the new room excitedly before jumping out of Ace's embrace and running towards a painting in the room.

"Papa! See, this is so beautiful!"

"Okay, okay, hold your horses now, let's have dinner first, then we go to sleep and visit the beach tomorrow, okay?"

"Okay~"

The three then walked out, Gracie looked around excitedly as they arrived at the dining room. In the dining room, waiting for dinner, Gracie heard 2 men sitting at another table talking.

"Damn, I came all the way here from the Bodwig City only to learn that we can't enter the Juhu beach due to bad weather!? What the hell!?"

"Yeah man, that's so unlucky"

Gracie quickly furrowed her brows and turned towards Ace with teary eyes.

"Papa, we will go to the beach right?" She questioned worriedly.

"Hmm? Of course, we will, my little angel. What are you talking about?"

"Then what are those 2 uncles talking about?"

"I am sure they are talking about something else, don't worry, we will visit the beach tomorrow" Ace replied with a smile before glancing towards the 2 men with the corner of his eyes.

The 2 men suddenly felt a chill run down their spine and looked around to find what's wrong without any success.

"Okies~" Gracie nodded cutely and soon, the dinner arrived.

The three then ate the food before returning to their room. Gracie quickly entered the dreamland in the anticipation of tomorrow while Ace sat in front of the window and looked at the dark clouds gathered above.

"I don't think they will fade away anytime soon…" Maeve commented.

"I guess we do have to make a move or else my little girl won't be able to visit the beach tomorrow"

"Mhm…" Maeve nodded and Ace stood up.

*Whoosh*

*Flap*

2 pairs of golden wings appeared behind Ace's back as he jumped outside the window and flew above the clouds.

"Well, I can't have you fall here, it will ruin my little girl's plans... I would like if you

Disappear" Ace stated calmly and waved his hands.

*Whoosh* *Whoosh* *Whoosh*

*Swish* *Swish* *Swish* *Swish*

With just one wave, fierce wind blew and few tornadoes appeared in the sky as Ace's silky white hairs fluttered in the air.

Soon, the tornadoes started moving around and sucking all the clouds and within 10 seconds, what looked like a really cloudy day with 100% chances of rain, turned into a clear, starry sky accompanied by a bright moon.
