Reincarnated With A Glitched System: Why Is My MP Not Running Out?-Chapter 535 A Family Meeting

-----

"Arlayna, please calm down. We were currently in a very serious meeting."

Grandfather tried to calm grandmother down, but she quickly glared down at him while holding me as if I were a precious thing she wanted to protect.

"And I heard you as we walked here! Did you just threatened her?! Your granddaughter?! Also why are you calling "Arlayna" so seriously?"

"A-Ah…"

The King suddenly began to twist his face expression. He seemed to be battling his serious self, but ultimately was defeated by his wife, sighing, and looking back at her.

"S-Sorry honey…"

"Yeah, much better! Now apologize to Faylen and her entire family for scaring them so much!"

"But a King must-"

"A king must this and that, blah, blah, blah! It is because of your personality that you made our entire family so distanced from us! If it wasn't for that you wouldn't be all depressed saying your kids don't love you or something! Come on, we talked this a lot already! You said you would change!"

"T-This is… but this-"

Grandmother pouted while crossing her arms and leaving me at the side, she stared at grandfather not with any murderous intent at all, but with the might of… a wife.

"Hahhh…"

The King sighed.

"Okay, I apologize, Faylen, Sylph, the entire family."

The King rolled his eyes as he waved his hands, he facepalmed right after that, resting over his throne. 𝒇re𝐞w𝐞𝚋𝒏𝚘ѵeƖ c𝗼𝑚

Damn, this was quite the change… I really thought he was like this serious dude all the time.

Or maybe he is and his wife's the one that make him change for the better?

"Now, now! Where were you guys going anyways? You should stay here for a while! You're all welcome! Let's have some tea at the very least, pretty please?" Grandmother supplicated us to stay, as she looked at us with puppy eyes.

"Sigh… okay." My mother sighed. "Let's have some tea and then we go. We need to set down in the territory father gave to us and everything else mother, we don't have much time."

"O-Oh, alright, alright! Let's have something quick and nice then! I want you to tell me EVERYTHING about your adventures my little Fay-Fay!" Said grandmother.

"D-Don't call me like that in front of my family!" My mother suddenly got embarrassed.

"Eeeh? But that's how I treat my baby girl! Now let's go! All of you too, come! You should be happy and smiling your little sister's back! Come on!" Grandmother quickly forced all the serious nutjobs here to sigh as they followed her, King included.

Like that, we ended inside an enormous hall sitting around a gigantic table with the entire damn family, as we were enjoying teatime. There was a mountain of pastries of all colors and flavors I have never seen before, and over twenty different types of teas!

"Wooah! This kuchen is so nice!" Aquarina said, devouring the fruit kuchen. "A-And this cake is so nice too! So sweet and spongy! Oh, the tea is so sweet!"

"Yeah this is all so good!" I continued eating and stuffing myself with Aquarina. Mostly so we could calm all the stress we just went through.

However, it seemed that this wasn't even grandmother's full power yet…

"Servants! Bring the chocolate fountain!"

She clapped her hands as several servants brought a whole fountain which instead of water, had melted chocolate, a type of sweet made out of roasted beans which had a brown color.

"Come here you two!"

She called us as she gave us skewers with fruits on them.

"Now… like this!"

She slowly bathed her fruits with the chocolate.

"Then wait a bit until it hardens… and enjoy! Hmm! I love it! Try it out!"

We felt like in a dream, as we did as she said and we suddenly experienced the beauty of a chocolate fountain.

I had only tasted chocolate when added to milk, which mother occasionally served to me back when we were living in our home in Cloudia, but it has been years since then so I barely remembered the flavor.

And it was so good! The contrast of bitterness that melts in your mouth with the sweetness and juiciness of fresh fruits was to die for…

Suddenly, several other children, the sons and daughters of mother's siblings came rushing, they only looked at the two of us cautiously but simply let their grandmother serve them chocolate. Their ages varied a lot, from kids at the age of four to some in their late teens.

One thing's for sure, they all were beautiful looking, like dolls. I guess this is the impression I give myself? I have grown too accustomed to my own appearance I guess… There was this beautiful little six-year-old girl with long pink hair and yellow butterfly wings that flew around playfully, blue-haired twins of around my age that looked at me coldly, a tall blonde boy with a sharp glare that silently enjoyed the chocolate, and then… finally, a friendly one.

"Hello! You're Sylphy, right?! Mama told me to say hi!"

"Y-You are…?"

"I am Susanna! Mom's Aina! You know mom?"

The little green-haired girl seemed to be around ten years of age and was a blonde and adorable sunshine of a girl, she was apparently the daughter of my aunt Aina, the youngest kid she had.

"Oh yeah! Nice to meet you Susanna!" I said with a smile.

At long last, a normal person!

"Nice to meet you too! I hope we can be friends one day! Bye!" She quickly ran back to her mom with her chocolate-covered fruit skewer.

"B-Bye… I guess that was quick." I sighed.

"Our parents said to say hi as well…"

"Let me tell you that we are not too fond of half-bloods, however."

Suddenly, the blue-haired twins, both around nine to ten years of age showed up behind us. Their very presences were overflowing with an icy wind, and their sharp crystal blue eyes seemed menacing, to say the least.

And what's up with this half-blood crap?!
