Chapter 220 It 'Was' A Good Morning
And for this act of utter one-sided info \'sharing\', she actually threw me from the roof.
And that could have been painful... yes, it could have been.
But thankfully, I had anticipated something like that, so I adjusted my falling path and ended up on a tree.
But... things didn\'t end there. She used her \'chains\'.
Those dark chains... that was a really powerful ability.
It was so powerful even when I tried using Solnova, there was no effect. As if it not only restricted my movements but also the whole energy flow in the surroundings, those dark chains remained unmoving.
And it wasn\'t like I had no way of getting away from them. I could but, I didn\'t want to fall from the tree or create an explosion that might destroy this backyard.
And though there was an even easier way to get out from them... that was a card that didn\'t have any need to get on the table for now.
Well, that one could have been easy, but I just stayed there like that.
Chained by a powerful ability on top of a tree... I didn\'t like that one.
She used a floating spell and was floating just above me, looking down on me with a pleased expression, and then, forgetting the breakfast, she started her interrogation.
Not that she got anything important, even after trying her hardest.
She knew how to interrogate other beings but, her methods involved excruciating pain.
And hurting me was the second last thing she wanted to do.
I did tell her some good things though. She was quite pleased to hear that.
Things like how I met Fern and how there was a thing like a beast family with different beasts living like a family with each other.
This picked her interest and at that time, even her old grandpa crow familiar came out to hear about this thing.
And, well, I begged her to release the chains and promised that I would tell her everything about Fern.
I hadn\'t told much when I was telling the things that happened to me and I had masterfully skipped many parts like the willow tree and Fern, but now she was hearing something that others didn\'t know.
And she was delighted by this fact... this little cute girl.
There was this special thing between us and with time, we will know each other more than our own selves so she didn\'t have to be so eager to know things.
I will tell her at the right time when it comes.
And being chained to a green tree of the same color as Fern\'s eyes made the perfect time for that story.
And then we were sitting on that same tree branch, forgetting the breakfast.
Not to worry others, I wrote a note and send it to them through Celes\'s clone and I got a reply from mom saying \'have fun~!\'.
Have fun...
How could I tell her I was chained to a tree?
Dad might like it or maybe she liked tieing him down but not me, mom.
I wasn\'t into that kind of play... or am I?
Anyway, this definitely wasn\'t fun for me, mom...
Thankfully, Fern saved me from this one.
Well, Celes was happy to talk about her dear sister Fern and the gorgeous black crow, Branwen, was also having fun hearing something interesting.
Rein had been in the eastern part of this continent all this time, and there were more rocky areas and dangerous forests than the empire.
And one day, on one such dangerous mountain filled with ferocious (Green) and (Blue) ranked beasts, she met him.
It wasn\'t that old story because just after meeting him; she realized many things and I can say that the wise crow was the very reason she came back to her home.
And I was now even more thankful for him for that.
He was... actually, an old beast.
He was an origin beast, and his kind was called [Night crow], a beast that was so compatible with her that their bond was similar to Celes and me on a bit different scale.
Celes and I were too much compatible that it was like we were made for each other.
And they found each other by fate, but he had to take the initiative after they saw each other.
He was more like a parent to her and she treated and liked him like his family.
Well, he loved her, different from her love as a parent but, he understood things would be as they were.
And now that she had found the one she really wanted, he was happy, and he was talking with Celes and Celes told me many things about him during the time I was talking about Fern.
He was grateful, and he was quite a good person now that I was hearing from him.
Well, Rein was surprised after hearing about a pure white chubby squirrel with forest green eyes that had the ability to heal a being emotionally.
Something like Anna, but different at the same time.
She could practically control every and all emotion, create them, erase them, and even stabilize them.
Fern had this unreal ability, while Anna\'s was purely different.
Anna could calm others, rejuvenate them and return them to the best state they were in, internally and mentally.
That was her special gift and Rein was surprised after hearing all this as she could understand these beings, [Helper], even more.
The old crow also told us that he had met another [Helper] a long time ago in a different part of the continent, and this one was different from Fern.
The one he met was a totally different and... weird creature.
He described it as a dandelion-shaped plant beast with blue seeds and a jade green crystal-like stem.
And that creature mostly just floated from one place to another and in some places that were devastated or had difficulties, it helped by creating fresh flowers that helped others.
And hearing about this creature surprised me even more because I had read about this kind of [Helpers].
The plant category, and not just dandelion but many flowers like that.
They were called [Florists]. And they were some of the most amazing beings among [Helpers] or even in origin beasts.
I also wanted to meet one such being in the future if fate allowed it, and Rein agreed with me.
This old crow of hers never told her such an amazing thing and as a result, he earned a flick on his small head.
And I couldn\'t help but chuckle while looking at those two.
He and Celes were actually so excellent partners that they just let Rein and me be all this time.
We were talking to each other and the two of them only came out with a delighted expression and voice when we called them.
I really was blessed to have Celes...
And maybe she felt blessed to have him, too.
We actually had a pretty good time after that.
Talking, showing some cool magic to each other, and eating while still on that tree.
It was a good time.
Well, that was the morning I was talking about, but right now, things were something totally different.
Things were ok, we even returned at the time of lunch and sat with everyone to eat dad\'s delicious cooking.
Things were going as yesterday till then, and although there were servants frequenting and doing most of the stuff for us, we were fine.
Everything was ok there... until grandpa Zhen came with the news of someone\'s arrival.
Someone all of us knew and Rein even expected this person\'s visit soon... but, even she started cussing at this person the moment grandpa Zhen said his words.
Thankfully, those curses were spoken through eyes, not many noticed them.
But things started getting difficult from that time and now, for a weird reason, I was fallen to the ground, laying at the center of this giant crater in the underground arena... smiling genuinely.
