The Reincarnated Count’s Daughter Is the Strongest as She Is Loved by the Spirits, Though She Is Only Wishing for Regular Romance! - Chapter 6.1
Chapter 6 : Birthday Party Part 1
Since then, my family has been visiting the lake every day.
Big Brother Chris has two other spirits besides the Wind Spirit, and Big Brother Alan has gained a Fire Sword Spirit after the Wind Sword Spirit.
Our parents don’t have much time because of work, so their spirit didn’t increase, but the existing spirits are growing steadily as they provide them with proper magical nourishment.
And I have completed all the attributes spirit!!
The four types, fire, water, wind, and earth, are spinning around behind my shoulders. Everyone looks at them with admiration, but honestly, they’re just a nuisance. During family meal time, the spirits gather together and play with each other, causing the round lights to fly around and making it hard to relax.
Are they a child? Will they calm down as they get older?
Come to think of it, the fire and water spirits that have been around since I was a baby don’t seem to fly around as much.
The guests invited to the birthday party are asked to sign a magical contract in advance. There are more people than I imagined.
Families of important figures within the territory and families with children close to me and my brothers age have gathered, so there are more than fifty children alone. Including adults, there seem to be around two hundred people.
First, we gather everyone in the main hall for a brief explanation, then move to the lake. The lake is a fantastical turquoise green, shimmering and sparkling in the sunlight. We headed to a grassland surrounded by the forest, where flowers of various colors were blooming.
There are pathways covered with fine gravel and areas with wooden chairs and tables installed, allowing for a stroll without disturbing nature. Apparently, when our grandparents were young, they used to invite guests to play here. That’s what our father’s butler mentioned.
I knew it, in the past, it was common for children to come here to meet spirits. Even though sometimes I think the story is not from that long ago, but the me from before also didn’t take stories from before the war seriously either.
Big Brother Chris is leading the children and walking at the front while answering questions from his friends. I, on the other hand, was in an alien state, with one hand tied to Big Brother Alan and the other tied to Rex.
Since it’s an outdoor party, I’m wearing a comfortable outfit – a light mint green dress with only the sleeves and collar in white and white socks with a fluffy skirt that covers my calves.
The girls are dressed in various colorful dresses, while many boys are wearing shirts and trousers with light jackets, enabling them to run around. From among these children, I will eventually have to choose attendants and maids.
Children from families that do not possess titles such as barons, viscounts, and knights, or those with only small territory, were educated as guards, or maids to children from noble families. What’s more, if they were promoted, they could work at the imperial palace or be noticed and become brides.
That’s why who you attach yourself to is crucial. If your master doesn’t have power, you won’t be able to connect with someone of high-ranking status. Unlike my brothers, I don’t think there are any boys who want to be my bodyguards or attendants. Because it doesn’t seem to lead to a promising career in the future.
As for the maids, I think we can at least become good friends as fellow girls and help them find suitors. Playing the role of Cupid seems fun.
The weather is nice today, the temperature is high for spring, and it’s a perfect day for an outdoor party with a nice breeze.
As I explained earlier, after arriving at the lake, we strolled through nature, gradually releasing some magic and engaging in dialogue with the spirits on our own. If anyone gets bored or tired, they can go to the table where the food is arranged.
Because of the large number of people, it felt like a suspicious new religious group, and I thought there would be people who didn’t believe in it or would make fun of it, but surprisingly there were a lot of people who were serious about it.
Especially for children who are attending higher education courses, they don’t want to lose to rivals from other territories. They are also learning magic, so they probably wanted to get a new spirit.
Then, With the appearance of Big Brother Chris, who increased his spirits, and Big Brother Alan, who was said to have obtained a rare sword spirit, and actually demonstrated his glowing hands in front of everyone, the motivation surged.
What about me ?
“What’s with this kid? Is she a monster?” was the expression on their faces.
It seems abnormal for a four-year-old to possess enough magical power to raise spirits of all attributes. I’m probably the one with the highest magical power in the castle. I’ve been using my magical power every day since I was born, after all.
After about an hour, people began to appear, boasting about getting a new spirit. It seems that there are many students learning magic and people working with magic after all. With Big Brother Alan’s advice, some were even able to find sword spirits.
“There’s no need to rush, okay ? Please take a break so you don’t use up all your magic.”
“The children just need to have spirits by the time they graduate from school. It’s okay if they don’t have more than one.”
I can hear Father and Big Brother Chris’s voices from afar. It’s understandable to feel anxious when people around you keep finding spirits. But seriously, the fact that there are so many people finding spirits easily just shows how little you’ve been communicating with your spirits.
Back in Japan, I couldn’t use magic even if I wanted to. There aren’t even spirits. Since we’re in such a wonderful world, we should try to get along better with spirits. I guess they didn’t feel grateful because the spirit has always been there by their side.
“Um, may I have a moment of your time?”
As I was explaining things to the confused children, a voice called out to me from behind. When I turned around, the person in front of me was a beautiful girl with bluish silver hair, and blue clear eyes that looked like a doll.
“Actually, it’s not really allowed for me to approach you.”
“They mentioned earlier that it’s fine today, didn’t they? Please don’t mind.”
“Yes. I am Iris, the eldest daughter of Baron Lloyd. Happy Birthday to you.”
“Thank you. How old are you, Lady Iris?”
“I’m five years old.”
“Well, you’re a big sister. Please get along well with me from now on.”
“Yes! Um, well…”
“You couldn’t find any spirits, right? What kind of spirit are you looking for?”
“….Water ?”
Why make a question there?
Wow, this kid is so cute. Many noble children are good-looking. They have the wealth and power to choose beautiful wives or mistresses. But even among them, she’s particularly exceptional, isn’t she?
Moreover, she seems obedient and honest. Would you like to be my big brother’s wife? I think your parents probably intended that when they asked you to talk to me.
“Ah, it’s coming. It’s coming. Gather some more magic in your palm.”
“Like this? Ah, it glowed!”
“A water spirit, huh? If you talk to it and become friends, it will follow you.”
“Will you be my friend?”
The way she tilts her head and asking timidly is also cute. I want to take a photo of it. Before she knew it, there were her worried parents watching right behind her, as the satisfied spirit hopped onto Iris’s shoulder.
“Well, that’s great, Iris.”
“Yes. It’s because Lady Diadora taught me.”
“Thank you, Lady Diadora.”
“No, no. With Lady Iris’s magical power, wouldn’t it be possible to raise one more?”
“Really? But, no, I’m thankful for this.”
“Please make a good friends with Iris.”
Oh, making a move, huh? Well, sure, everyone here probably wants to be friends with us, but isn’t it better to say that to other family members rather than a four-year-old child?
“If possible, I would be grateful if you could keep her close to Lady Diadora.”
Like I said, talk to my parents about things like that.
“Well, I didn’t expect you to be such a pretty young lady like a fairy.”
“This is the first time I’ve seen someone with all attributes.”
“I’m looking forward to the future.”
Wait, hold on.
Please don’t let the adults surround her.
What ? Is it me that you’re after ? No way !
