Volume 2 Chapter 10: Growing Vegetables
"Keith, help me out!" Fira screamed. Keith laughed as he picked Fira up from the ground. When he did, he took out a handkerchief, "Use this to wipe it off."
"Thank you." It was big. The handkerchief was more like a blanket for Fira. Fira wiped the drool off her body and flew back to Keith's shoulders,
"Let's go!" Fira pumped their first. They were ready to depart. Or so they had thought.
"Bo!" That was because Keith's legs were held down by the four snowballs! Keith looked down, "Sorry, guys, But I can't take you guys with me." Keith couldn't do that. But when he said that,
"PO!" The four made super cute faces. Pretty, please! That was the message he got. But Keith shook his head, "Sorry. And Mir, don't give me that look! You had your fun for today!"
Keith shook his head at how Mir acted. This was not the first time he escaped. When they heard that, they tried to act up even more. They wanted to go with Keith. Before that could happen,
"Bo!" Miyuki shouted at her children. That caused them to stop. But they still pouted. Keith laughed, "How about this. When I have time off, I will bring you guys out to play?"
"Po!" The four jumped up and down when they heard that. Keith laughed as he looked at Miyuki, "I'm going to go now, Yuki."
"Po!" Miyuki nudged her head on him. Keith smiled as he walked away with Aria and Fira.
When they arrived home, the guards nodded as they let him in. And the first person to greet them was Sophia. She had a smile,
"Welcome back, Dear!"
"Thank you. Also, Mother. I have someone to introduce to you." Keith smiled as he brought Fira up. Fira raised her hand,
"Hello! My name is Fira!"
Fira gave a big smile as she greeted Sophia. Sophia blinked a few times before a smile formed, "What a cute fellow. My name is Sophia." Sophia brought out her finger to shake with Fira.
Fira shook her finger. Keith interjected, "Mother, I will be in the garden. When dinner time arrives, please call me from there." Keith didn't say anymore as he dashed towards the garden. This was the moment Keith was waiting for.
"I'm growing vegetables here." Keith showed Fira his garden.
When Fira saw it, her eyes turned bright, "Grandpa was right! I can tell that you really took care of them!"
From one look, she could tell that Keith had been providing as much nutrients to the plants, not wanting them to be uncared for.
"Thank you."
"I will help you make them delicious!" Fira stated with a confident expression as she started to move her hands. Her arms started to glow green as she did. Green dust particles were sprinkled onto the garden.
"With this, the vegetables should be done growing in a few days." Fira wiped the sweat off her face.
"That soon?!" Keith blinked his eyes when he heard that. It took him a few months to grow those vegetables. But it took a few days for them to finish growing?
That seemed too unbelievable.
Fira nodded, "I'm the amazing Fira! Of course, growing vegetables in a small area is easy! But if your garden was bigger, it would have been a problem!"
"I see." Keith nodded. He understood how her powers worked. If he wanted more vegetables to grow, it took more time.
"Should I keep mixing eggshells and ashes into the soil?" Keith questioned. He wondered if he was adding too much now that Fira cast her magic.
"Mmhmm! You don't need to worry about it." Fira nodded her head. While Keith and Fira tended to the garden, Carter came to tell them dinner was ready. The two entered the dining room. He introduced Fira to William and Derek.
"This is a forest spirit." William stared at Fira. Keith tilted his head,
"Father, you know about the forest spirits?"
"Of course. Well, spirits, in general, are mysterious beings. Only a very few could meet them. There's a superstition that those who meet them are great people."
"Huh?" Keith tilted his head. Sophia chuckled, "It seemed that superstition wasn't made up after all."
"I think Keith is super great!" Fira said as she raised her hand into the air. That soup did something for her.
"..." Keith had nothing to say. They talked a few more times before the maids brought their food to the table.
