Moonlight didn't hop onto Raylo's shoulder as usual. Instead, it kept a distance of seven or eight paces, following not too close and not too far behind him.
Raylo didn't comment on the subtle distance, instead heading straight for the hillside behind the castle.
That was the newly built Pegasus Ranch.
Warm sunlight spilled over the verdant grassy slope, where dozens of majestic Pegasi were grazing and resting leisurely. Their snow-white wings glistened in the sun.
The Minister of Agriculture, Lady Martha, was there with a few assistants, feeding fodder mixed with a Magic Potion to a mare that had just given birth.
Seeing Raylo, Lady Martha hurried forward to greet him.
"Lord."
"How are things, Lady Martha?"
"Everything is going smoothly, Lord."
A gratified smile appeared on Lady Martha's face.
"In the past month, fifteen foals have been born, all of them healthy. Once they mature, your Pegasus Knight Order can add a new squadron."
