Volume 9 Chapter 21: Riding Snowballs Home
“Now then, are you two alright now?” Keith stared at the two girls. They were sitting on the ground, staring up at the boy. Behind him was Shiro and the other Samuis.
“Mhmmm.” Still a little anxious, but good enough.
“Now, why did you guys follow me?” Didn't he tell them before to stay in the mansion?
“We thought you were doing something interesting, so we followed you.” “...Yeah.” Carolyn and Krystal explained, but the man could tell what had occurred. So you were brought along by Carolyn, huh? The two girls continued to rustle as the big snowballs were quite imposing. Their eyes were full of wariness and concern. Although, there were a few who weren’t: Mir and the other babies nudged the two. The only adult who reacted calmly was Miyuki.
“Po?” Miyuki tilted her head at Carolyn. It seemed she had met with this girl before.
“Guys, you don’t need to worry about anything; they're my friends,” Keith explained.
“Mmhmm! They’re friendly!” Fira added.
“Bo.” Shiro let out a low growl, clearly asking why he didn’t say so in the beginning. He stared at the two before returning to his stone.
“Is he mad at us?” Carolyn quickly held onto his legs. Well, she wanted to do so in the beginning, but all those eyes made her pause. One wrong move would be the end.
“No, he’s just moody like that.” Keith patted the girls’ heads.
“Lily! Come here!” Carolyn remembered the baby Samui as she still had the hairpin in her hair.
“Po!” The Samui quickly waddled over and licked her face, “Aww, I missed you too.”
“...” Krystal was left out of the loop. You’re friends with one of them? As she glanced around,
“Po!” A snowball nudged her back.
That was when she noticed Mir, “You’re bigger now.” He was at his original size.
“Oh, he could use magic to change his size whenever he wants. That’s why he can accompany me and appear on my island.”
“““Po!”””
“Yes, yes. I know you guys are jealous. But what can you do about it?” Inti and the others had some words for this. No fair! No fair! But they could do nothing; having a giant creature walking around the island would be jaw-dropping.
“Keith, what kind of creatures are they?” Krystal blinked. These animals were not expected. This was especially so since that one roar. Her entire legs buckled back and forth in fear. Yet, this was not the problem; it was ingrained into her bones!
Even right now, her arms still shivered.
“Oh, they’re Samuis.”
“WHAT?!” The calm and collected expression she had utterly broke. There were many things Keith told her, but this one had taken the cake!
“When was this?” When did this man tame the Samui?
“Yeah, I had them a long time ago,” Keith thought, “I contracted them when I was eight?”
“…” Krystal was utterly speechless.
“What?”
“Of course, she would be surprised by this? Do you think anyone wouldn’t?!” Carolyn smacked the guy in the back of his head. How could he be this stupid? Anyone would be surprised by this sudden revelation.
“But you were normal with it?” When Miyuki appeared before her, she was pretty calm.
“That’s because I didn’t know anything about it, you dummy.” There was a difference. She was settled in when she saw Mir and the other babies. Krystal was getting everything from the get-go!
“...” Krystal was silent. Keith waved his hands in front of her face, but there was no response.
“Did I break her?”
“You think?!”
“Alright, I have to bring Fira back to her village. Want to come with?” He couldn’t forget about what they needed to do.
“Sure.” Carolyn pushed the girl, and like that, they headed there. As Carolyn had to push, Krystal’s mind was still out of it.
And that was when they saw everyone.
“Grandpa!”
“Tidal, it’s been so long.”
“Indeed it has.” The spirit hadn’t changed at all.
“Hello, Keith!” The other spirits started to greet the boy with a warm smile. But as they did, Krystal muttered, “Does he know how spirits are?” Spirits were pretty lofty creatures. How could they be so cozy with him?
“That’s his superpower,” Carolyn shook her head. Keith had always had a strange connection with animals. This was made even clearer by how he acted before them.
“You understand that he has the power to destroy an entire kingdom if he wanted to.” Keith had always not cared about what others said about him. But she understood why now; this man had the capital to not care.
It would be a one-show stomp if they challenged him to a fight. It wasn’t even a joke. If Todd Mills had caused more trouble, his territory would have been blown up. One Samui would be enough.
“And you also know that he wouldn’t do something like that either.” Carolyn smiled. Keith had all that power in his grasp, yet he wasn’t going to use it? Some would say he was wasting it. However, the man was never the type of person.
“That’s why I’m attracted to him.” Carolyn liked how he could do things his way.
“And you’re attracted to him because of that as well.”
“…” Krystal nodded to that. Keith had a certain charm to him that others didn’t have.
“Why are you guys standing there with your mouths open like this? Did you guys need to go to the bathroom?”
“…” The two girl’s expressions turned dark. This guy really wants to get beat up! The group continued to play with the spirits before returning to the snowballs. It was time to return home. However,
“Po!”
“Aww, you want to give us a lift?”
“Po!” Inti sounded.
“Okay!” Keith jumped on Inti.
“Yay, I get to ride you.” Carolyn was on Lily. She had always wanted to ride one. Even she found them to be quite fluffy.
“Po!” Mir nudged Krystal, who nodded, “Thank you.”
I can’t believe I’m riding one. Never would she expect something like this to occur. And when they returned to a certain point, “I will see you guys again!”
“Po!” The snowballs roared as they returned.
