in one afternoon, Astral as always was patrolling the kingdom, this day was taking outside where there were some farms that were in charge of raising animals and growing plants, in that he hears an "excuse me" and sees who it was, it was Darling, it was one of the farmers who produced the most food for the kingdom, she kindly asked Astral if she could take a moment of him time, Astral accepted if it was to help her, Darling guides Astral to her farm in a specific area where she grows her vegetables and fruits, she asks Astral if he could help her with the gardening and so on since her workers are busy outside the kingdom to get supplies for the animals and also rare plants for the kingdom, Astral didn't know much about farming and so on, but Darling wouldn't mind teaching him in the process, towards Astral began with his help, the first thing that Darling asked Astral is to make holes in the ground to plant the seeds, Astral started with that by creating holes in the ground fertile while Darling filled them with seeds, a long time ago they were able to fill the entire farming area with new seeds, the second task was to water the plants, Darling specified not to pour too much water since some plants could drown, Astral with This, she began to water the plants, taking care to pour enough and not drown them, while Darling gave them fertilizer, even though Astral finished her part, Darling had run out of fertilizer, she said she would go buy more, but Astral wanted to help her. to look for the fertilizer, Darling with this thanks him and gives him enough money for two bags of Fertilizer, Astral made a long way to enter the kingdom and go to the market area, he asked for two bags of fertilizer from Darling, and already with These bags return to Darling, Darling again thanks him for the help and Astral puts the bags back and Darling continues to fertilize the missing seeds.

It could be said that everything was ready and Astral was about to leave, but it seemed curious to him that Darling played calm classical music on a record player, he asked why with respect, and Darling said that plants need music to grow better, Astral was Confused at this, Darling laughs a little, Darling says that plants have more feelings than Astral believes, they can feel, smell, see, and listen, that's why it's important to take care of them with dedication and heart, this seemed curious to Astral, that they really plants only grew but they had no feelings

As thanks for the great help, Darling told her that she would look for something special for Astral, Astral wanted to refuse since she liked to help, but she did not have time to say since Darling got into her farm, making Astral wait for her, in that Astral begins Hearing strange sounds nearby, when he saw what it was, he realized that Darling's crop was about to be invaded by a bunch of moles that, seeing the fertile land, were going to destroy the crops to make them their home.

Astral did not want to sit idly by, he did not want all the effort that had helped Darling to be in vain, so with the help of his sword he went on the attack, began to scare away the moles, and prevent them from approaching the seeds, some they escaped, but others were hard to crack, trying to go where Astral prevented them from going, Astral sometimes resorting to hitting the ground with his sword to keep them away, it was somewhat difficult it was One against many and the crops were many, sometimes some moles arrived to ruin some crops , at this rate it could ruin all the crops, made Astral think that they would follow a type of boss, made him enter avoiding the moles and protecting the crops, he started looking for the leader, and eureca! he found it, it was bigger than the others and it imposed dominance, this mole noticed Astral and in a fit of anger he tried to fight against it by throwing stones at him that luckily Astral avoided

This mole was hard to crack that apart from attacking and sending his minions, he changed places starting to confuse Astral and making him hit some of the rocks hurting Astral a little, at this point Astral had an idea and dropped to the ground, disguising that he was defeated, causing the leading mole to come out close to Astral and laughing proudly, which Astral successfully tricked him into capturing him by pulling him out of the ground and looking at him annoyed, the leading mole tried to free himself, but he couldn't, he lost this duel, and Astral saying not to ruin the crops of this kingdom again, throws the leader out of the crops, causing him to make a retreat, the crops being successfully saved, in a few minutes Darling returns with a box, confused of some crops they were broken, Astral explained the situation of the moles and forgives him that he could not save all the crops, Darling says that they do not have to apologize and that he is grateful that he has defended the crops , she admits that those moles are hard to crack, since they were old rivals, Darling put the box aside and said that he was going to fix the broken crops for a moment, Astral suggested to help, Darling asked if he better rest since He did a lot but Astral insisted on making them both fix the crops that were broken by the moles, and this was done. Darling thanks Astral for everything and as thanks he gave her the box which she opened being several seeds and she takes out a jar with a rainbow cream putting at the checkout, Darling said that it was an extra because of the moles and that it was his best recipes that he was going to stay as he was the last but he said that Astral deserved it, Astral wanted to refuse since he wasn't looking for anything in return but Darling He insisted with a tender smile, making Astral take the grateful gift, and when he returned to his room, curious, he tried a little of that happy rainbow cream, being impressed by how rich it was.
