"Elements of Space!" — Arabel thought, unable to take her eyes off the silver sphere orbiting her third Star.

As before, information flooded into her mind.

"Affinity to the Elements of Space!" — Arabel was delighted.

Arabel already had an affinity for the Energy of Madness and the Element of Water. Having formed the First Constellation thanks to her First Star, she gained a deeper understanding of the Energy of Madness from Bera herself.

From her Second Star, she received an understanding of the element of water corresponding to her "Golden" rank, Esma, a Diamond—ranked Valkyrie who had an understanding of the element of water comparable to the level of understanding of the Legendary Valkyrie.

Due to her lack of affinity for the Element of Space, Arabel was only able to gain a basic understanding and, more importantly, this very affinity for the Element of Space.

There were now five affinities in her arrangement: ice, water, darkness, madness, and space.

From the information she received, Arabel found out that through her connection with Octo, she gained her first ability related to the Element of Space, called "Spatial Perception".

This ability gives her the ability to detect fluctuations and changes in the space around her, helping her to find even hidden and invisible creatures, since even being invisible, they occupy part of the space. With this ability, Arabel can determine their location and even see their outlines.

Arabel was delighted with the results. Looking at her First Constellation, she wondered, "I wonder if Dan, when he forms his First Constellation, will receive an affinity with the Blood element from baby Rizzy?"

"And what will it be like?" she asked herself.

Then another thought occurred to her.

Arabel currently had three different Valkyrie bloodlines, but only after reaching the Platinum rank would she open the fourth additional slot for the fourth bloodline.

"What should I choose: the element of water or space? Is there even a Spatial Valkyrie?" she wondered.

After observing her First Constellation for a while, she left the Soul Space.

Arabel opened her eyes and met Coco's fathomless eyes, which were still resting on her chest.

"Are you awake?" she asked, and Coco nodded without looking away.

"Did she come to me because she felt that I had acquired an affinity with the element of space?" — Arabel thought.

The longer she stared into those mesmerizing eyes, the more convinced she became. Only this could explain such a drastic change in Coco's behavior and attitude towards her.

Then, as Arabel expected, Coco started complaining and crying.

"Coco, let's get this over with," Arabel suggested, adding, "You just need to endure the punishment for a while."

After hearing about the punishment, Coco, as before, wanted to run away, but Arabel's next words stopped her.:

"Just a little patience, and you'll get your candy."

Coco, who had not tasted new, delicious and best candies from her masters for a long time, began to doubt. She couldn't satisfy her craving for sweets with local sweets. She really wanted to get the same candies that her masters received.

"Woo-woo-woo," Coco finally made the most difficult decision of her life and gave up.

"Good girl," — Arabel patted her.

Arabel herself was eager to complete the whole punishment case and strengthen her relationship with Coco, the best photographer she knew, in the remaining time. She wanted Coco to be their photographer for her upcoming wedding to Idan.

Arabel took Coco off her chest, crouched down, and felt her shrink and tremble.

Stroking Coco, Arabel lightly slapped her small ass.

Coco flinched at the slap, and then, her eyes wide with shock, she turned to Arabel, tilting her head as if asking: "Is that all?"

Arabel didn't hesitate to slap her again, a little harder this time.

Then another and another, gradually increasing the force of the slap, until she stopped only when she noticed that Coco was ready to cry.

"I hope this is the first and last time, Coco, I don't want to hurt you," Arabel said, stroking her gently. "And I hope you've learned your lesson about not bullying others."

Coco nodded, indicating that she understood. Arabel smiled, stroked her, and then, taking out a lollipop that Coco hadn't eaten in a very long time, handed it to her.

As soon as the candy was in sight, Coco's eyes lit up. She immediately forgot about the pain, and all her thoughts were focused on this sweet treat.

After receiving the lollipop, Coco couldn't contain her emotions and burst into tears.

All this time Arabel was gently stroking her hair.

After crying for a few minutes before finally enjoying the candy, Coco suddenly remembered something and raised her head.

"Woo-woo-woo," she purred.

"What?" asked Arabel, amazed. "Are you saying that your subordinates have already arrived at the outskirts of the capital?"

"Woo-woo-woo," Coco shook her head.

"A subordinate? Alone?" — Arabel asked, and Coco nodded.

"Woo-woo-woo," Coco continued.

"Do you want us to meet her?" Arabel asked, and Coco nodded again.

Arabel remembered that besides Felicia, Coco had two other subordinates, the two snow foxes that Idan had saved in the North. She had never imagined that one of them would make such a journey from the cold region to the capital.

Arabel came out of the bedroom, hugging Coco, who, crying with joy again, was licking her favorite lollipop.

Arabel left the house to find Idan deep in conversation with Irene and Arslan. Her parents and Idana's younger sister Ina were also present on the terrace.

"Dan," — Arabel called, and everyone turned their attention to her. When they saw that she was okay, they breathed a sigh of relief. Then their gaze fell on a crying fox cub that was licking a lollipop.

Ina's eyes sparkled when she saw the cute little fox, and she really wanted to hug and pet her.

Arabel nodded to everyone and, going over to Idan, shared what Coco had just said. Which, of course, surprised Idan a lot.

Soon, the two of them, using the Access Portal in their Guild's Branch, left the Kingdom and headed in the direction Coco had indicated.
