"M-my, dad? Was your... student?" It was unbelievable, not impossible, but unbelievable.
I never knew of anything like that one.
This was the first ti I was hearing my dad even had a master.
All this ti, I only knew trained on his own and most of his knowledge was from experience, talent, and practice.
But now that I thought about it... my dad was now so of the few (tier-7) mages in this vast empire.
There were few of his rank and thinking back to his mastery of basic magic techniques. Oh yes...
His basics were too polished to be self-taught.
I have seen his magic casting and I rember everything I had seen him do.
His magic, those aweso techniques where he can actually cast magic traditionally like any other mage, processing a spell quickly, and understanding the magic he is using.
Though one could achieve that level by exceptional talent and one-sided actual battles, if you don't have the firm base, the ground, the foundation needed for that, coming to the place he was now wouldn't be possible.
"Now that I think about it... he sure is amazing," I mumbled under my breath as I nodded in understanding.
This grandma was a special mage... her natural attribute was a higher version of earth, tal.
I could feel it and she was great, really great at what she was doing.
Though she had hidden her Mana precisely and the way she so naturally hid her powers with my eyes, I just knew she was super strong.
And she had so of the best experiences in magic, enough to be a forr teacher at the magic academy of the south.
Now I was beginning to understand just how close the ties between our two families were.
And it was amazing.
Nodding at her, I smiled, surpassing her and making the two others with her shake their heads with a smile.
She found their reaction and this whole situation amusing and from her smile, I at least understood she was thankful to .
"As I have heard all this ti, the so-called young hero of the empire, soone who saved the guild leader of one of the greatest rchant guilds and a valuable (tier-7) mage.
The one who saved his parents from a bastard demon and almost sacrificed his life.
Soone who would be a great archer and soone who had grown up to be a miraculous person.
You really are sothing, Eon." She smiled and signaled to co to her.
And as I stood before her, she looked past and to Zoe, who still stood at the back with hesitation.
"You do look just normal little child but, I can tell you are nothing less than this boy.
But, you are a good girl that I can say for sure.
Hmmm... co here, what are you doing there?"
She smiled at her, and Zoe nodded her head and stood behind .
Looking at her with hesitation, Zoe mumbled slowly, "Wow..."
She was hiding her gaze, but I knew she liked her gorgeous appearance.
She was one of the most beautiful people she had seen, physically and in astral form.
Zoe saw the true beauty of a being and I could tell just how she admired this one.
In her eyes, when she saw a person for what they were, others appeared as... how should I put it?
A cluster of light?
Lights of different colors, shapes, sizes, and densities.
It was difficult to understand what she saw others as but, I could understand how she felt every ti she saw others with this gaze.
And when she said pretty, she ant it, just like how she liked Rein so much she called her big sister naturally.
Why did she call her big sister again?
To her, I was sothing like the light of sunlight. A cluster of different lights that beco white at the core.
The shape of this was like a sun, and a sun that started with pure light but at the sa ti had different colors dedicated to so places that didn't change.
Rein was like a darker night with many different colored stars and her grandpa was sothing this grandma.
As one found their true strength and understood things about themselves, the colors she saw decreased, beco one, and took a shape.
The grandpa in her eyes was a strong body with purple winds covering every part of his being.
Winds of different natures varying from calm ones that could heal to chaotic ones that could obliterate.
This grandma was sothing similar too... but what?
[[ "A silver diamond shining dully at the center of a flower made of mostly silver tals.
Different tals but one flower and the diamond of its core... is so refined it looks like the ones you sold and mom collected.
It's really beautiful, big brother~!" ]]
She was restricted to tell soone this information other than and I was happy every ti she talked to like this.
She just loved so of the beautiful ones and she felt thankful to be able to share these thoughts with soone.
And I was also thankful to be of help to my little sister.
Smiling and shaking my head at them, I patted her head and moved her forward to face them.
"At least say hello, Zoe. She thinks you are beautiful, but she's too shy to say it."
Rein and her grandpa and grandma smiled at this behavior and nodded their head in understanding.
"H-hello..." Zoe greeted her with a small bow and the grandma patted her head, surprising her.
"How adorable~. Huhu. I like you, little lady." She said with a bright smile and Zoe nodded in agreent.
"I-I like you too..." she replied with a genuine voice, making and Rein sigh with an amused smile.
The sa energetic, cheerful and loud Zoe was sotis like this... a cute little girl.
And this was actually normal for children her- our age.
My cousins, Rein and I, were the weird ones.
Maybe she will have a place like Anna in our house?
I was looking forward to seeing them through.
"They should arrive soon, right?" I mumbled under my breath, and Rein suddenly rembered it.
"Oh shict! Grandma! Their family is on their way here. Even Anna is coming! I have to prepare, so let's talk later!!" she shouted and just ran out of the room after thanking for reminding her.
...this was fast.
"Hohoho. She is acting more excited for so reason." The grandpa said while looking at her and pointing his eyes at .
They talked with their gazes, and a surprising look covered her face instantly.
"Really? Are you..." she asked, but stopped while seeing the smile on his face and a confident nod.
And on the other side, Zoe tried to hide her chuckle from , but failed miserably.
Even they noticed it and the grandma smiled thankfully while looking at .
"Looks like we will have more to talk about than I had thought, Eon." She smiled at mysteriously, and I just nodded.
There were strangely many things to talk about with many people... will this night be enough though?
With my family, then these two and then at last with her...
The day has been stretched for long... will the night be the sa?
I was looking forward to many things here but... eting my family was the first thing on them.
