【125】
* * *
For reasons I couldn’t fathom, the name of the one who received the Emotion Spirit King’s fervent affection was Teddy.
His older sister was Trendy.
His younger brother was Teddy.
“We both loved making things since we were young. We had nimble hands. I preferred working with leather, while Teddy preferred touching fabric.”
I brought the siblings into the Imperial Palace.
Strictly speaking, commoners weren’t supposed to enter the Imperial Palace.
But?
I threw a tantrum saying I’d live outside if it wasn’t allowed. Then Father resolved it for me.
“These are the dolls I make.”
In any case, after the siblings arrived with all their belongings packed, we had deep conversations about various things.
What they made, what they wanted to create in the future. And what I wanted.
Things like that.
“Wow! They’re tiny dolls!”
“Yes. This black cat, white rabbit, and pink bear doll series are my works.”
“They’re incredibly small. This is my first time seeing dolls this tiny.”
Generally, the larger a doll, the more expensive and cute it is.
But the largest one is only the size of a thumb, and the smallest is the size of a fingernail—it’s fascinating.
“I’m rather timid by nature, so I’ve always preferred smaller dolls to larger ones. Because they’re so small, they don’t sell very well though.”
Teddy laughed shyly, looking down.
He truly seemed incapable of hurting anyone.
Incredibly soft, gentle, and fragile.
“Sigh, we lost our parents around fifteen. After that, we came to the Capital—Teddy sold these tiny dolls on the street, and I worked in a workshop, but my wages were always late… Then you saved us, Miss.”
“No. I’m grateful that you came to me.”
“How… you speak so beautifully too. There’s a certain grace that comes from someone who received a good education from their parents. You have that, Miss.”
Trendy clasped her hands in admiration. I felt embarrassed and laughed awkwardly.
[Water Spirit King Aurora says my child is quite something and boasts about it.]
[Chaos Spirit King ■■■■ says a Spirit King without children would be too miserable to live.]
They’re bickering again.
The Chaos Spirit King truly seems to be ‘chaos’ itself.
I played with the tiny dolls Teddy had, toying with them, when I suddenly fell into thought.
“Hey, what if we didn’t just use the dolls as dolls, but attached them to shoes?”
“Pardon? Shoes?”
Trendy, who had been eating cheese cookies, widened her eyes.
“Yeah! Attach several to children’s shoes and just one small one to adult shoes.”
“That’s truly a fresh idea. I’ve never even thought of something like that…!”
Trendy set down her cookie and fell into thought with me.
Her expression was unmistakably that of an expert, a master craftsperson.
“Huh? Um…? A, attach the dolls…?”
Meanwhile, Teddy stood frozen in shock, unable to do anything but stammer helplessly.
“Oh! I just thought of something! If we make the shoes according to the design you showed us, we could attach the doll to the laces!”
“To the laces? That’s a wonderful idea too.”
“Like shoes with a big ribbon attached, if we do it this way….”
Trendy and I were perfectly in sync.
It was like we were two halves of the same whole.
Teddy seemed to feel a bit left out between us, but I think that was only because things were moving so quickly.
Trendy was someone who moved fast.
Teddy seemed like someone who took his time.
Everyone has their own personality, after all!
“By the way, Teddy, you enjoy knitting too, don’t you?”
“Huh? Yes, that’s right. I do enjoy it.”
“What if we made the shoelaces by knitting them? They’d stretch nicely and be comfortable.”
“Yes…?”
Pop!
Oh no, Teddy’s mind just exploded from overload!
In the end, Teddy buried his head in the table.
Trendy giggled at the sight of her younger brother.
“I’ll combine everything you’ve mentioned and draw up the design for you.”
“Thank you, Trendy.”
“Don’t mention it. This is my job now! Your personal shoe artisan, my lady!”
Warm laughter echoed through the garden.
And then, from far away, a Jellyfish came drifting over.
It carried a neatly folded paper crane inside.
“Oh, that’s right. A reply letter!”
I’d completely forgotten…!
How much time had passed?
Hello, Jellyfish Owner.
I’ve been waiting eagerly, so I decided to write you another letter.
The gift I’m making for you is finally complete.
I made it myself.
I hope this brings you happiness.
P.S. I haven’t forgotten about you, have I?
-Your pretty one.
He must have been disappointed, yet he wrote to me with such tenderness.
‘If it had been me who didn’t receive a reply letter….’
I would have said I was hurt!
How does Rasifer manage to be so thoughtful?
Just then, I saw Noel running toward me from over there.
“My lady, the Laximon Household Master’s deputy has sent you a gift. It’s an enormous box!”
What if Rasifer is inside that box?
I headed toward the Palace entrance with everyone, my anticipation building.
“Wow!”
The snow-white box towered above my height, adorned with an enormous pink ribbon.
Father was already there, and the Twins, Iliad and Naiad, had come out to examine it.
“Oh, you’re here! Come on, open it. I’m dying of curiosity.”
“But have the two of you ever met? Why would the Laximon Household deputy suddenly send a gift?”
Look at how differently Iliad and Naiad are reacting.
I giggled and tugged at the ribbon’s end.
‘Our secret pen pal friendship is a secret, after all.’
Father found out, but I mustn’t tell anyone else.
‘But Father, you look terribly displeased about something….’
[The Water Spirit King, Aurora, smiles.]
[Fathers naturally dislike their daughters gaining boyfriends.]
“Oh, what’s this? It’s a peculiar-looking magical device? Do you pull this handle?”
My older brother Mikard, who had just woken up, yawned as he approached and examined the machine from every angle.
The predominantly pink machine had a transparent glass chamber in the middle. Below it was a handle, and when pulled, three compartments would spin around…?
“Ah, so it’s a new invention from the Laximon Household deputy.”
“Oh! Father, look at this! It’s moving!”
Whirrrr!
The three spinning compartments came to an abrupt stop.
“Rabbit, strawberry, pink?”
The moment I recited the pictures displayed in order, the machine hummed to life.
And then—cotton candy!
Cotton candy was actually being made?!
“That displeasing fellow. What’s he thinking, sending something like this? Does he want her teeth to rot?”
Father grumbled again.
But I was absolutely thrilled!
The freshly made cotton candy was warm and fluffy.
So moved by the moment, I found myself bouncing up and down on the spot.
“What’s all this fuss about?”
I took a big bite!
As I pulled the handle again, I heard Cecilia’s voice from behind me.
“Aunt, look at this!”
I turned around with a bright smile, wanting to show off my cotton candy.
But, well, you see.
[The Emotion Spirit King ‘■■■’ applauds enthusiastically.]
Cecilia stood there with her eyes wide open in shock.
She was frozen in place as if nailed to the ground.
‘Where her gaze is directed….’
Huh?
From somewhere, a crisp and refreshing scent wafted over—one tinged with a subtle bitterness, the deep fragrance of an ancient forest.
Like gentle waves rippling across a sea made of trees, the ethereal aroma spread through the air around us.
At that same moment, a soft jade-green luminescence seeped from around Cecilia, forming an infinite circle.
That circle pointed toward Teddy.
Teddy.
“…!”
How could this be?
Teddy was an Awakener?
‘No, really?’
I was so shocked I forgot to breathe.
A shimmering, mysterious light descended upon the circle. It soon turned crimson, transforming into something like thread that bound the pinky fingers of both of them together.
Fate.
Companion.
Another self that cannot be severed.
In other words, a soulmate bond.
A Bijou in the shape of an inverted water droplet appeared on Cecilia’s forehead.
It was truly clear and transparent, like pure water—and an identical Bijou bashfully revealed itself on the back of Teddy’s hand.
