Chapter 733 Slis and Povpoi
?[Eon's POV: ]
Ten minutes have passed since the mont we stepped foot out in the garden… ten whole minutes.
"Do you ungrateful children even know how long it takes to grow every one of these blades of gentle grass, all these flowers and these special plants?"
I was kneeling on the ground with my hands raised as a punishnt and with an angry expressen, Aunt Haze was standing before us… yes, us.
Including and Rein; Deleon, Ezra, Anna, Carla, Alf, Zoe, Princess Bell, and even Lizzy were kneeling here, with their hands raised, most of them looking down with embarrassnt.
"And you… Deleon, was it? Do you even know how important these plants, flowers, and soil are? What were you even thinking about releasing all these slis?"
"Ma'am… Miss Anna requested… she asked to show so of my slis to her. I was just-"
"Oh shut up now. How can an adult like you just do whatever a child wants? Don't you have even a shred of common sense?"
It wasn't just Deleon that was embarrassed right now. Even Ezra, princess Bell, and Lizzy all were looking down, afraid to even et the furious eyes of one of the most famous florists of the empire.
"And you. Anna."
I understood what had happened here after Zoe told Aunt Haze everything that transpired here right before we had arrived, so to sum everything up… it was because of Anna.
"I can understand you were excited to see all these new creatures and all, but did you not even have the simple thought of stopping these creatures when they started destroying my entire garden?
Couldn't you stop them for just a mont, tell them they shouldn't do sothing so horrible, and then in a play more… civilised manner?
This wasn't good, Anna. I'm just disappointed."
Alf, Carla, Princess, and Zoe had already had their share of words so they were all just silent at this point.
It was early morning as well so she kept her temper down and maintained a relatively lower voice… we knew just how loud she gets when anything at all happens to her dear garden or plants, so we never even dare to think of picking a flower that is inside the flower area.
We know the consequences of ssing with her flowers well, Anna knew it as well. But this ti, her excitent got the best of her after seeing all the special slis Deleon summoned.
'She was so exited to see them that she started touching and picking up every single one of them.'
Sothing that Povpoi did not like.
'Anna was their friend. The 'inferior' slis getting her attention upset them instantly.'
So they warned the Slis with their magical abilities, sothing that the slis with low intelligence found fascinating.
Slis, out of pure instincts, started getting touchy with the Povpoi, sothing they liked even less
'So, Povpoi started running away from the Slis and slis followed behind them. Which quickly turned into a ga of tag, and Anna started running after them as well.'
She was having fun, so Anna asked the smiles to continue doing what they were doing even though they received command from their master Deleon to stop directly.
'The slis ignored the direct command of their master and continued chasing the Povpoi as Anna had asked them.'
And then while chasing the Povpoi, the slis got excited and ended up using their skills to get a little closer to the faster Povpoi.
Ultimately resulting in the ss before us.
"Say sothing, Anna. I want an answer. Did you or sis you not think this was a bad idea?"
"I…"
Anna was in a tough position since she was just having fun.
Even I did not know how she would respond to this whole ss she had created.
"Aunt Haze… I was having so much fun playing with them that I didn't even notice all of this.
Had I known this would happen… I would have stopped them myself."
She was tearful, sad, sorry, and regretful as well.
But she was lying when she said she did not know this would happen.
I knew my little sister the best so I knew she was more than smart enough to consider the possibility of the damage to the garden.
She might not have considered this possibility when Deleon summoned the slis, but when they started running after the Povpoi, there is no way she wouldn't have thought how disastrous this could turn out to be.
She could have stopped them, but she chose not to. And instead continued with what was happening.
'Though knowing this fact wasn't going to change the inevitable.'
Anna knew she had a very powerful weapon.
"I… I am swoorwery…"
Anna was cute. And the most charming being among any of the people currently present in this garden.
And her charm was very potent. Enough to even work on .
She was a young angel who knew how to use the weapons at her disposal…
"H-hmmm? Anna… there's no need to cry, little one. Shuuu. I am not that angry, haha. I was just saying you should have been a little more careful."
Seeing her tears, her said face, the red face she was making… the genuine face of sadness, was sothing that even made my heart ache.
Everyone that looked at her got emotional themselves and Lizzy even got tearful herself.
She had done nothing and just like the two of us, she had co here a mont before Aunt Haze arrived and saw all the destruction.
There was no reason for her to be sorry about anything, but she still was in tears after seeing my little Anna in that state.
'That right there… is what Charm is capable of.'
She made even our ever stoic Ezra emotional so I don't even have anything further to say about her ability.
"A-Anna darling? How … how about we calm down, yeah? I am not even angry… I'm not angry anymore. See? Haha."
Aunt haze did not like seeing her garden being destroyed, but since this was just the front yard with no special plat or anything, she knew she could just rebuild everything as it was.
She would only have to work a little as well, or she can leave most of the work to us. That way, she won't even have to dirty her clothes with the soil and mud.
She could recreate any kind of garden if she wanted but seeing Anna amotional was not sothing she could ever afford. Especially her tears.
They were too precious to be wasted on sothing as insignificant as this.
"E-Eon! Do sothing! Anna… Anna is crying! What are you doing just sitting there!"
She panicked when Anna showed no sign of stopping so she had no choice but to ask , the one person that could certainly calm her down.
"Yes."
We weren't even here when all this happened so there was no reason for us to receive punishnt. The sa for Lizzy.
But according this aunt of ours, since these people were in my care and I was in charge of them, I was the one most responsible for all this ss. And, well, Lizzy was collateral damage.
She was truly innocent but she still had to cry as a result of all this.
"Anna? Co here, dear."
I picked my little sister up, wiped her tears with the sa handkerchief I use normally, the one she gave of course, and walked so distance away where the Povpoi and slis were gathered.
"You know acting isn't going to work on , right?"
"Sniff. Sniff. Of course I know, big brother…"
She was sad the garden was destroyed so the tears weren't entirely fake, but compared to the fun she had in that short ti playing with the Poipoi and all these slis far outweighed the guilt she had for destroying the garden.
And, it wasn't like the actual flower filed, fruit or vagitable area was hard.
So grass was grumped, so small plants were unearthed, and so parts of the garden was destroyed.
Nothing much actually happened to the really importent things that our Aunt Haze really, really liked. So there was no need for her to feel too guilty about what happened.
She had fun, and I was happy she had her fun playing with these new friends of hers.
"Anyway, did you feel so kind of 'special' feeling when you told the Slis to continue playing? Sothing like you were talking with them?"
"Hmmm…? How do you know, big brother?"
She was calm now, and her red face was back to a normal glow as well.
"Well, there is no need to talk about that just yet, but please try to avoid finding out about that kind of 'vague' feeling. You might get hurt."
"Hmmm? Really?!"
"Yes…"
The fact that the slis disobeyed the 'orders' of their master was unbelievable even to Deleon, that was the main reason he was lost in his thoughts right now.
He was a master so it wont be long before he figures out the reason they disobeyed his command and continued doing as Anna said was because her 'influence' over them was absurdly greater than his own influence on them.
'A master's influence could only be topped if soone possessed an extrely unnatural affinity with the 'creatures' nature. The natural talent of what we call 'summoners'.
And additionally, the reason the slis were even that ignorant of the fact they had disobeyed his command was because they did not even perceive those commands.'
All their attention was focused on her and her only. Sothing only the trained tars are capable of.
'It won't take long for him to figure out she was naturally talented. So talented that even by using those powers unconsciously, she was able to take control of his special elental slis.'
So… after this breakfast is over, I will have to talk with him about all this.
