Chapter 722 ‘Friends’ from the academy
?[Eon's POV: ]
"Repeat it nine tis more!" Anna shouted while slapping my head with her hands… her hands that were not little anymore.
She was sitting on my shoulder, making do squats as a punishnt and there was this thing I had to say while doing that.
"I am a bad brother, I did bad things, I should be punished."
"More sincerely!"
I know for a fact she learned these words and this specific kind of weird punishnt from mom and dad… but I should leave it for now.
She was smart so she will understand what these words, said in a little different context, would actually an to soone's partner during their private ti.
"I am a bad brother. I did bad things. I should be punished."
"That's it! Keep going~!"
This sounded so weird coming from her innocent mouth I didn't know how to even tell her just how inappropriate it sounded. But then again, bringing this up would only an I was the one thinking these inappropriate things.
'I will have to bring this up when mom and I are having our own private talk later today.'
She was a little girl who knew little about the adults she spends most of her ti with, but she would learn it later. Hopefully, much later.
"Alright! Your punishnt is finished, big brother~! You can put down now~!"
She slapped my head again and with a helpless smile, I spun her room three tis before using wind magic and making her fly in her room like we used to do before.
We used to play a lot before I went to the academy however, it has been a while since she experienced flying like this.
"Heheheh~! Big brother~! This feels even more fun for so reason~!"
My control over the elents also increased after my origin awakening so I was able to control the elents in a more efficient way now and on top of that, the personal spells that I created were even more 'realistic' than they used to be.
'The winds felt more real now, like, when I used the spell (: Float) of the wind attribute, the winds that were produced were so gentle that it actually gave the feeling a person was actually floating or flying in this case.
"You will be able to fly on your own in the future, little one."
The flying around the room wasn't going to be much fun since this place was small and alredy filled with many things like the dolls of all our friends that Zoe must have told her about.
"I will be able to fly~?! Really~?!"
"Of course. Angels can fly naturally since they have wings, no?"
"Hmm? But I don't have wings though… will I have wings when I am a grown up like you and sister Elle?"
She didn't deny the angel part, hehe.
This was unexpectedly cute of her.
"Who knows? Perhaps you will, perhaps you won't. It depends on how well you practise and do all the things you are supposed to.
Being a good girl and staying the just the way you are right now might help with it, but if you don't do the sword training and the physical training, you might not have them."
"Whaaaaaat?! But that sword training is soooo difficult! Grandpa tells to run around the garden, do weird exercises, and I even have to swing sword hundreds of ti everyday!
Why can't I just read books and do magic like daddy and big brother?!"
"Because it's important, darling." I hugged her and took her out of her room as we had many people to et.
'It seems like she didn't like physical training much.'
But I can tell her endurance and ntality as good as mine.
Swinging her sword for 'hundreds' of ti everyday was just the start for her.
'When my master taught , I had to Perfectly shoot tens of thousands of arrows at moving targets every single day.'
And I had to shoot them one at a ti so the kind of training I had went through was nothing less than hell.
'She has seen train Carla, Alf, and Rein so she knows we do more intense things than she was doing right now, but until now, she had never realised how difficult what we do actually was.'
I made Carla swing her sword in perfect motions thousands of tis during our training sessions until the core basics of sword, sword form, breathing, and muscle movents were engraved in her very bones.
Sa for Alf.
'He had to draw the sa spell circles until he had perfectly mastered every single stroke, every line, and every pattern on it. And he had to do it until he gained a perfect understanding of what he was working on.'
He then had to reverse engineer the spell all on his own. And he had to do it in every single session without any kind of break.
'Carla was always left physically exhausted while Alf's head stopped working for a few monts after he was done with his spells.'
The kind of training they had received from grandpa and others on one side, the kind of training they had to go through because of was nothing easy.
It was hell for them, but the only reason they were going through that kind of hell was all for their own good.
'They wanted to get better and stronger. And they did get better and stronger after every single one of those hellish sessions.'
It was difficult, but they were world renowned prodigies of the golden era so they can at least endure this much.
And, since it is inevitable, Anna will have to go through that kind of training under as well. Actually, the kind of training she will have to go through under after her awakening will be much, much more difficult than what the two of them or Chry or the others had to go through.
"Anna is special. More special than any of us. That is why if Anna wants to have her wings and fly on her own, or do cool things like and others, Anna will have to stay true to what is being taught to her until she can learn from directly-"
"Big brother will teach ?! Really~?!"
She shouted exactly when I opened the door to the main hall of our house and surprised every person present there.
Especially Nes.
"Kyaaa!"
She was so stunned she actually jumped and fell down after missing her landing.
"Hmm? Ohhh! Soone fell down! Big brother! Put down! Soone fell!"
Quin was being clumsy since this was her first ti being in this place, this new environnt, this place where her friends had grown up in; however, it wasn't that unusual that she fell down after a surprise.
At least, we who knew her closely knew that much.
"Sister?! Are you hurt anywhere?!"
Anna ran up to her as soon as I put her down and started asking her if she was alright with a worried look.
"I… I am okay…"
And as I knew when Quin as well as everyone else saw my Anna, even with her special crystal eyes hidden, they were all enchanted by her beauty.
"Are you really alright? Please stand up first. Let's sit there."
d had seen her before and Anna knew d as old Lion grandpa's granddaughter so they were acquainted, however, the rest of them including Dereon and our villainess regressor Ezra.
Even Nova had an unexpected blush on his face when he saw her.
However, unaware of any of them, Anna helped Quin and took her to a nearby chair, sat her down and checked for any signs of wounds.
Thankfully, she didn't find any.
"Huuu. Looks like sister is alright. Do you feel any pain?"
"No I don't… I am perfectly fine, Miss Anastasia."
"Why is sister call Miss, hehe. You are big sister and big brother's friend right~? Then you can call Anna~."
Quin wanted to hug her, lol. Everyone wanted to.
My little Anna was just that cute after all.
"Alright then~. Can you stand up big sister? Or should I call everyone else here?"
"W-what? No! It's fine. I'm alright so let's just go to them."
Anna t Quin first, but she still had everyone else we still had many others to introduce to her.
"Alright Anna~!"
With Zoe, Chry, Carla, Alf, Rein and on one side, with her in my arms, we started introducing everyone she had only ever heard about from the others.
'She already knew the stories about us from our ti in the academy, but even though this was her first ti seeing all of them for the first ti, she showed no hint of knowing much about any of them.'
She also didn't show how Rein and I were soone that already knew about all of them closely.
She made a promise to us and she was keeping it better than any nine year old should have been capable of.
"So, first of all, the one you just helped. This one here is Aleequinn or Quin as we call her. The amazing captain of one of the houses, like yours truly~." Zoe introduced.
They were our 'friends' from the academy so we were going to introduce them one by one to her, and as for the ones who were here after winning the random draws, it would be the sa for them.
They were also part of soone's house so the people knew them well.
Anna was excited to greet all these people she had only ever heard about from the others. Especially the first friend we had made in the academy. The one she unknowingly helped a while back.
"You are sister Quin~?! The one with cooooooool spirits that started the thank you tradition~?!"
She has been wanting to et with her since the ti we told her how she attacked us with a fountain of water on our first encounter.
'She found her cool for so reason and the fact that she didn't even know the language that we speak had surprised her even more.'
She admired her. And now, she was before her.
