BXBX NOVEL Chapter 258 Anna's Talent
\'She has a talent for spirit summoning~!\' Rein exclaimed in surprise while looking at her joyous reaction of Clover.
But, she was only one-third true.
[[ "She has a hidden talent for summoning elemental spirits, spiritual creatures, holy creatures, taming, as well as weapons.
A weapon wielder and summoner with some of the greatest latent talent.
She is normal, but, at the same time, the most special one in the family.
This talent is different from big brother\'s, who realized it a long time ago. It will take a long, long time until she fully understands this talent.
Even her awakening, from the looks of it, is still five to six years away.
But when she starts to bloom, she will be a wildfire like no other.
Hehehe... special Anna~." ]]
As Zoe said, Anna was different from any of us.
Looking at Rein and putting a finger on my mouth, I replied with my eyes in a stern tone.
\'Rein. She\'s young. Different from us. You know our grandparents would naturally know this too, right?
There\'s still a long time for her. So, let\'s enjoy her until she is a cute little angel like this. No one knows what is going to happen in the future~.\'
It was an unspoken rule that one can only know their full talents when one finds them themselves.
Hearing it from others or something similar greatly influences the minds, and so, even while knowing all that, not saying anything was the best thing.
And this was my sister. I knew she will do outstanding when her time comes.
Even her awakening will be special. She was a jeweled eye possessor after all.
Most probably she will have five elemental affinities like the headmaster, and a similar high affinity with a light attribute from what Zoe and I can tell.
One that I have seen before and one that I already had with me in a small amount.
It was just speculation and predictions from the history and research on the jeweled eye wielders, so I can\'t be certain but; I believed the possibility of her having a high affinity with [Arcane] energy was quite high.
As the energy that was second only to spirit Mana in summoning, as well as more powerful when the wielder was a human, Arcane energy would be best for her too.
There were few among humans who could control Arcane, and the field of magic that was derived after this energy, the arcane magic arts, though working with any energy, with Arcane, it was the best.
Some of the famous people who could use this energy were the emperor who also had a crystal butterfly with a defensive <Skill>, as well as the grand mage of the principality of Lakmer, who was a jeweled eye wielder.
Currently, there were seventeen known people on all three continents combined, six of them being in the empire alone who can use Arcane energy.
Ultimately, my Anna was the most especially talented person I knew among the younger ones.
She has immense potential, on the level of me and Rein.
She was above the prodigies; she was just monstrously talented.
But that talent was deep down inside her. And when it comes out, it will definitely be a wildfire in this whole wide world.
There were a few summoners who were also weapon wielders, even fewer than magic archers.
And she, most probably, would be a protagonist if this was some story.
Welp... she was just the normal, cute, little Anna for me.
And the way she was giggling while playing with Clover was just... holy.
"Wowy~ sister Elle! Who is this~?" Clover snuggled with her, and she just giggled with a gorgeous smile on her face.
When I call it holy, I really mean it, and it was actually divine right now, nothing less.
\'Haaa... if I can, I wanna see this heavenly scene every morning like this.\'
Even though this will be highlighted in my memories, it would be pretty awesome if I can actually see it like this.
But, alas. She may be a future protagonist of some story. I was the current one... or was I?
I could be, or maybe it is, someone more amazing than me like Rein, Carla, or Alf.
Anyway, Anna was, as always, adorable.
And Clover liked her, too.
Rein and I knew, and Zoe too, naturally, Anna would love clover but, Rein was surprised Clover liked Anna this much.
This little kitten was being a melted green soup in her hands as Anna tickled her neck.
Anna\'s every touch to her spiritual body made the kitten laugh with delight and we knew, even though Anna wasn\'t using any powers, she was naturally understanding the spirit after observing her thoroughly.
And Anna even gave this kitten a kiss, and this creature of green water just melted in her hands, becoming almost like a melted slime.
Normal slime...
The one that almost killed me wasn\'t slime at all.
That was a demonic creature, and I didn\'t like it at all.
But I loved seeing this one. This melted, fluid cat was really adorable.
Just as we watched the two with warm eyes, someone else joined us here, too.
"Eon~! Let\'s go-, hmm? Anna, Elle, and Zoe? Are you already here to wake him up? And Anna? What-"
And before she could finish her sentence, a melodious voice interrupted mom.
"Meeeeeoooowwwww~!" The melted Clover returned to her cat form and when mom heard that mind-blowingly cute voice and her eyes fell on that form, mom fixed her eyes on this charming, almost intoxicating kitten.
"W-what is this!?" she shouted with an excited, surprised smile, her eyes wide, and her face as bright as it could ever be.
And she didn\'t even wait for anything and just ran towards us, and stood before Anna, who had Clover in her hands.
Her breathing was heavy, eyes almost shining with stars in them, and she looked just like an excited \'cat person\'.
And clover was adorable so I can understand just how fresh she would be feeling on this early morning.
It was funny, seeing that reaction of hers, and the four of us can\'t help but chuckle after seeing that excitement.
And even Anna was fascinated by how her mom could be so childish in front of a little kitten.
"Hehehe. Her name is Clover. And she\'s Rein\'s spirit we summoned last night." I answered with the same chuckles as Anna and she looked at me, and then at Rein in surprise.
"You did it already? Eon~!! I wanted to see that too~!"
She was disheartened but, well; it was already done, and she knew it so, she just sighed at us and went back to her cheerful look while looking at her.
I expected this after seeing her joyous expression with Taika, and I knew this young kitten would be even more fascinating in her eyes.
\'Damn... my mom is a cat lover. Maybe I should give her a small cat friend like Anna\'s teddy bear. She would definitely like it~.\'
Well, making something of that level will take a while, even with all the raw parts completed, so yes. She will have a cute little baby kitten of her own~.\'
Making AI in this world was hard, and one that was smart enough to learn things were even more difficult.
Plus, all those enchanting, processing, rune enchanting, and assembly of the almost nano parts was something very tiring.
But, well, I have done that a few times, so it was all ok.
Mom was happy while seeing the small kitten, and Clover liked mom as well, not like Anna but, at least, like us.
She even played with her, and when mom touched the cool watery surface of her body, her eyes sparkled with even more stars.
I knew she would know what this kitten was from Clover\'s color, room\'s healthy atmosphere, and special water surface-like body and I was right.
"A healer kitten~!? Damn you all got lucky~! And This baby too~. Happy to meet you, Clover!"
My always calm, strict, and dangerous mom was a fool for this kitten. And these were some of the best moments of my life.
The core image of my mom I had was a caring, cheerful, strict, and calm-minded woman but, when I saw her with Taika, as well as right now... I couldn\'t help the warm smile on my face.
My amazing mom, the cat person.
\'Now I understand how all the cat lovers of the world felt when meeting new gorgeous kittens.\'
She was overjoyed, even more than Anna. And she couldn\'t help her warm, wide smile of pure joy.
As if she fell in love with Clover, she just played with her for the time as we left them be and just went to get ready for the departure.
Anna was with Zoe and the two of them have become the real, best friend, a sister duo.
And Zoe even talked with mom last night about many things and… mom comforted her as well as promised she would take care of her just like Anna.
Mom already considered Zoe her child, and Zoe accepted her kindness with a warm smile.
I knew how she felt, and I knew the two of them would be alright.
So, I had no worries as I went to take a bath in this room\'s giant bathtub.
Rein went to get freshened up too while leaving Clover in my room with mom.
I knew she had already packed everything she would need, even after that last night\'s prank.
But, well... that was Reinelle.
My stay in her house was amazing, and I had some really~ pleasant experiences in this place but, I had my own house too.
Our house. All of my family\'s and mine.
And it was in the capital of the greatest empire on the continent.
I know things would be difficult, and different from this isolated estate here.
But I had no need to worry about anything at all.
It would be fun. And I was excited about this day for a long time now.
\'The house of Heliox. A place famous in many books. In the capital, the most important place of the empire, the most mysterious household.
Few know just what happens in this place on a daily basis, and even rumors rarely get out about anything at all.
And still, it is one of the most respected families of the empire.\'
[[ It will be fun~! ]]
"Sure will, hehe..."
It was exciting just from the thoughts. And I eagerly awaited my shopping trip to the capital markets with my dear siblings and Rein.
\'Let\'s finally get going to that place~. The same place we started the journey to almost six years ago.\'
I... was glad I met my master. Without her... I don\'t even want to think about the horrible things that might have happened~!
