The cookies becoming more popular among travelers and traders who happens to pa.s.sing by this little town will go to their store.

It's been a year since Erwin's cookies first came out in the store, Ilya gave Erwin a little knife and a roller for him to use to make a cookies, when first he got it from his big sister, Erwin is so happy and even make a lot of cookies after that.

"Hey, big sis, how can i use magic?"

It's a normal day in the store, Erwin's helping his sister to make a bread and cookies, whenever he saw his sister's using magic, he became more curious about it.

"Are you interested with magic?"

Ilya just light up the stove with her fire magic and turned around to Erwin and saw Erwin's curious face.

Erwin just nod his head while still playing with the dough in his hands.

Ilya starts to think seriously how to answer Erwin's question, she doesn't want to disappoint her little brother.

"Well not all people can use magic though, there was a particle of magic called mana, it allows you to control magic, you can either born with your body capable to interact with mana or Erwin can train to learn interacting with mana"

Ilya starts giving Erwin a short explaining how mana works for magic.

Mana is a nature's power and someone need to have a capability to control it, depends on their soul power, to control the mana, need an imagination how they will manipulate their mana depends on their element.

"Ilya's element is fire, mama's magic is also fire"

While explaining to Erwin, Ilya shows him the fire magic they usually use everyday.

"How to control it?"

Erwin doesn't seems bothered by Ilya bringing up the word mama, Erwin understands they don't have one since he was little, he only knew that his big sister is the only one who always with him.

"Want to practice it? big sis sure you have talent Erwin"

Ilya stroked Erwin's head and smile.

After hearing that words, it makes Erwin so happy, he's so excited to try doing magic.

-I think it's possible since Erwin is probably a n.o.ble's child, they all can use magic though

-Well let's just give it a go

Ilya take the breads she baked and put it in the storefront it's their routines everyday.

Erwin's still enjoy making his cookies and humming joyfully while at it, he can't wait to learn how to use magic.

-I think i can just open the store now

Ilya flip the store sign to open in the front door and the front window, she walks back to the storefront waiting Erwin to finish making his cookies, she will help him to bake it.

[door bell ringing]

The store's door open

"Welco.. ah ,Yuikchan welcome.. Erwin is the kitchen right now"

A small child with a yellow hair come to the store, she's probably at the same age as Erwin, they always play together.

Yuika seems to blushed a little when Ilya mentioned Erwin, she then bow a little and ask if she can go to the kitchen to meet Erwin.

"It's okay, Erwin will be happy to have you visit him Yuikchan"

Ilya smiled, she tries to tease Yuika a bit, she knew that Yuika likes Erwin since they always playing together and Ilya always with them.

Yuika run towards the kitchen then stops her step for a second, and inhale deeply before then walk towards Erwin.

Ilya can't help herself but laugh by her own watching those kids together, her little brother is a bit dense, and didn't notice Yuika's feeling towards him.

-Well they still a child though, let it be, let it be

The store's not really crowded by customers in the morning, so Ilya and Erwin can relax a little every morning and just play a bit in the store before customers starts to come.

"Hey big sis, can Yuika also learn about magic with us?"

Erwin suddenly call his sister from the kitchen, it seems that Erwin's talking about he will learn magic with his sister and Yuika also interested to join in too.

"Sure why not, let's learn it in the day off"

Ilya walks to the kitchen and start helping Erwin with his cookies, baking it and place it in the storefront.

Erwin and Yuika looks happy by his sister's willing to teach them about magic, they're so excited as it written in their face that they're looking forward for it.
