【006】
A towering pile of fried chicken had arrived, yet I sat with my mouth agape, my eyes fixed solely on the glowing text.
[The Water Spirit King ‘■■■■’ has suggested your appearance on the Childcare Variety Show 【My Precious One】.]
[Appearance Reward: The blessing of all Spirit Kings who enter]
[Do you accept? Yes/No]
Strangely, only the ‘Yes’ option was adorned with sparkling flowers and ribbons.
I didn’t quite understand what it meant, but I liked pretty things regardless.
So I pressed the ‘Yes’ section with my fork.
“Crab, don’t play around at the dinner table or you’ll ruin it.”
An austere voice came immediately.
“It’s not crab, though…!”
I opened my mouth to explain this extraordinary occurrence, but then I realized I was actually squeaking.
“Squeak? Squeak-squeak?!”
I was clearly explaining properly—so why was this happening?
“Ahem.”
Father/Uncle then gave me a quiet warning.
Grandfather watched with great amusement.
I felt my face crumple into tears.
‘No, really! It’s because of this!’
That was when it happened.
[The Water Spirit King ‘■■■■’ has suggested a culture from another world.]
[For young participants, the dialogue screen becomes a bit cuter.]
[Emoticons unlocked! (❁´▽`❁)]
A peculiar image had attached itself to the text…?
It looked like a smiling face, didn’t it?
As I tilted my head in confusion, another sparkling message appeared.
[Nice to meet you. I am Upiros, the administrator of Eden and the butler serving all the Spirit Kings.]
[From now on, I’ll be sending you various notifications. Thank you for your cooperation! `+◟( ˘ ³˘)◞ ♡]
I knew what a butler was.
After all, there were children at Kindergarten who listed butler as their future dream.
‘Then… are the Spirit Kings important people?’
Before I could even adapt to these sudden events.
Another sparkling message appeared.
[The Emotion Spirit King ‘■■■’ has entered!]
[The Emotion Spirit King ‘■■■’ smiles brightly at you.]
[Who does this little one belong to? Can I raise them?]
“….”
Utterly bewildered, I plunged my fork into the cooling fried chicken.
I should eat first.
A glutton never forgets to eat, no matter the circumstances!
[The Water Spirit King ‘■■■■’ is proudly showing off how well my little one eats.]
[The Water Spirit King ‘■■■■’ proposes joint childcare to all Spirit Kings who have entered.]
[Currently, six Spirit Kings have entered 【My Precious One Who Doesn’t Even Hurt When Placed in My Eyes】.]
[When all Spirit Kings enter, you will obtain the title ‘Darling of Kings’!]
Hmm, but no matter how hard I tried not to think about it, I couldn’t help myself.
‘Water, Flame, Earth, Emotion… that’s only four.’
Who could the other two be?
Tilting my head in confusion, I quickly finished cleaning my plate.
The next course arrived—roasted peas and mashed potatoes.
‘I don’t like peas.’
I ate them properly at Kindergarten.
Only because there weren’t many.
But now my crab-shaped plate was absolutely overflowing with peas.
“You need to eat things that are good for your body. Don’t leave any.”
As I merely poked at the peas with my fork, Father/Uncle, who had been watching me intently, spoke up.
Grandfather was shaking his beard and shoulders.
I forced myself to scoop some up with the potatoes and put it in my mouth, but I couldn’t open wide.
I only ate a little, puckering my lips like a crucian carp, and then Father/Uncle raised his eyebrows.
“More.”
“….”
Come to think of it, shouldn’t adults eat more of things that are good for the body?
‘I’m already strong!’
As I was seriously contemplating this, text appeared before me once again.
[The Emotion Spirit King ‘■■■’ has bestowed upon you the blessing of ‘Remarkable Adaptability’!]
[Your situational adaptability increases slightly.]
[Your courage increases slightly. You might become a bit reckless?! ✧☆٩(`･ω･´)و]
[The blessing lasts for 5 minutes.]
Red, blue, yellow, green, white.
A butterfly shimmering with many colors landed on the bridge of my nose.
It seemed only I could see it.
‘Oh!’
But the moment I reached out to catch it, the butterfly vanished with a pop like soap bubbles.
‘Hmm.’
Did I become a little braver?
To be honest, I’m not sure what changed.
[The Emotion Spirit King ‘■■■’ proposes a Spirit King Alliance Quest reward.]
An Alliance Quest?
Spirit King Alliance Quest!
Eat well and grow big and strong!
[All Spirit Kings who have entered the Room have given you homework.]
✔
Feed beans to Navy Admiral Diagon Fasayen!
Success Reward
Magic sugar with orca energy 60g
Failure Penalty
Squeaking for an entire day (24 hours)
I stared at the letters calmly.
I had discovered two things about these strange letters that kept appearing.
First, whenever I try to speak about this, no words come out.
Second, it seems like… it wants to tease me!
‘But orca sugar… I think Teacher would really like that.’
Remembering the Educational Institution Teacher with dark circles under her eyes, I nodded.
‘I’ll try.’
[The Flame Spirit King ‘■■■■■’ is pleased that you have a challenging spirit, little one.]
[The Earth Spirit King ‘■’ hopes you fail and squeak, revealing their wicked intentions.]
‘I don’t want to!’
I’m already four years old—I don’t want to squeak like a baby.
Puffing out my cheeks, I stared intently at Father/Uncle.
He stopped eating and looked at me in return.
After a silent staring contest, I grunted as I climbed down from my chair, then grabbed my plate.
“What are you doing?”
“Tasty things should be eaten together.”
“Hmm.”
“I’ll eat too.”
Toddling forward, I stood beside him as he rested his chin on his hand.
Straining on my tiptoes with effort, I pushed my crab-shaped bowl next to his large bowl.
“You little thing—you don’t want to eat them yourself, so you’re trying to feed them to Diagon?”
“No. You like beans, so…”
“You like beans? Hahahaha! You rascal, you still haven’t called him Father even once?”
Grandfather laughed heartily.
His massive frame seemed to wobble with laughter, so I giggled along with him.
The only one not smiling was Father/Uncle.
“…You can call me Father.”
“Huh…?”
“Today I’ll officially process the adoption papers. Then you’ll officially become a Fasayen Princess.”
“But isn’t that because I was chosen by the Ancestor Whale?”
To my question, Father/Uncle—
No, Father.
‘No. I’m not quite ready to call him that yet.’
As I hesitated, the letters quietly made a suggestion.
[The Earth Spirit King ‘■’ recommends the title ‘Admiral’ for you.]
[The Water Spirit King ‘■■■■’ wears a sorrowful expression.]
‘Yes, I like it. Admiral.’
The Admiral scooped me up awkwardly and settled me on his thigh in an equally uncomfortable manner.
“Fasayen has long accepted those without bloodline ties as family. The Ancestor Whale’s choices have always been for the sake of the household and are absolutely correct, so no one finds anything strange about it.”
“Mmhm.”
“Even Ricardo, whom you fed once, is an adopted child. Though he does come from a lower noble family.”
But wait, this position is perfect for feeding someone beans!
I listened intently to the Admiral’s words while gripping my child-sized fork tightly.
“The Household Master can only be of pure Fasayen blood, but the Resonant and the Admiral can be adopted. Among them, you are a Resonant…!”
Splurt.
“Aco.”
I’d been watching carefully, and I didn’t miss the moment the Admiral’s mouth fell open in an ‘O’.
My fork moved like lightning, slipping straight into his mouth.
The Admiral stared down at me in genuine bewilderment, as if asking how such a thing was even possible, and an awkward silence fell over us.
“Pahahahaha!”
It was Grandfather who revived the chilled atmosphere.
“Hehehehe, hehehehe, look at that bold little rascal!”
Bang! Bang!
Each time Grandfather’s palm struck the dining table, the entire space trembled.
I quietly avoided the Admiral’s gaze and quickly popped a bean into my own mouth.
Gulp.
“Beans are good for the body.”
“Heh.”
“Admiral, eat together with me.”
Four beans in the Admiral’s mouth.
One bean in mine—that’s no secret.
[The Emotion Spirit King ‘■■■’ rolls around asking if you saw that expression just now.]
[The Water Spirit King ‘■■■■’ mutters, Is this really right…?]
[The Flame Spirit King ‘■■■■■’ advocates for you.]
[I don’t want to see a child who listens well and tries hard to be loved. The way you carry on is far more endearing.]
Several lines of text scrolled up and vanished.
And… blinking, I suddenly clamped my mouth shut.
What on earth have I done?!
