Chapter 89 89: Little Seimei, Who Has Read Countless Books, and the Muscular Monster Yujiro
"Huh?!"
Nimaiya Ōetsu walked out from behind, originally in high spirits.
However.
Looking at the terrifying aura wrapped around his big sister's body, he trembled in fear, especially when he saw his brothers and sisters already thrown into complete chaos.
Nimaiya Ōetsu silently shook his head, stepped back, drew a cross over himself, and muttered silently, "Amen! Please bless my brothers and sisters so they won't be beaten to death by Big Sister today!"
"Roar!"
Sure enough!
A deafening dragon roar rang out.
Along with waves of cracking sounds.
Very soon.
When Nimaiya Ōetsu walked out again, all the noise had already returned to calm. All his brothers and sisters were standing in neat rows, obediently following behind their big sister.
"Seventh Brother!"
"Big Sister!"
Nimaiya Ōetsu's entire body straightened. Looking at his smiling, heroic, and valiant big sister, he naturally knew exactly what that roaring dragon cry just now had been.
"Seventh Brother." Artoria asked, "What is the new thing you said you researched?"
"This…"
"This…"
Nimaiya Ōetsu immediately ran over and said excitedly, "Big Sister! I researched a special kind of weapon. I feel that this kind of weapon should be a top-tier weapon capable of surpassing the Supreme Grade Blades."
"Hm?!"
Everyone curiously gathered around.
Although.
Everyone had been playing and fooling around, after being taught a lesson, they also knew what the main purpose of coming here was. They were all very curious about what their seventh brother had researched.
"Big Sister!" Nimaiya Ōetsu led everyone into the inner part of the forging room and said seriously, "I discovered that there are special energy fluctuations in the air. These energy fluctuations exist within the atmosphere, and Logia Devil Fruits are extremely familiar with these energy fluctuations."
"Hm?!"
Artoria and the others listened to Nimaiya Ōetsu's explanation, one by one looking completely confused. Sorry! When it came to studying, they were clearly unqualified. None of them understood what exactly was going on.
However!
If Vegapunk were placed here, he would immediately understand.
What Nimaiya Ōetsu had researched was actually the prototype of the future Pacifista, wasn't it?
The future Pacifista would be equipped with laser cannons based on the Glint-Glint Fruit and energy shields. No matter how one looked at it, all of this was actually a kind of application of energy as a property. As for such an application, anyone who was not an idiot would understand how it should be used.
This was Vegapunk's research.
Of course!
Although Nimaiya Ōetsu currently had such an idea.
However.
If one said Nimaiya Ōetsu had already developed the thing?
That was not the case. Not only had he not developed it, he had not even fully begun. He had merely been unable to wait and wanted to share his idea with every brother and sister. All that could be said was that Nimaiya Ōetsu's situation was understandable. It was nothing strange.
All along.
Because Nimaiya Ōetsu's aptitude was not good, he could not compare to his brothers and sisters in other aspects. Now, of course he wanted to tell every brother and sister.
"So that's how it is!" Artoria said in understanding. "In that case, does that mean weapons can be created as if they had eaten Logia Devil Fruits?"
"That's right!"
Listening to his big sister's summary, Nimaiya Ōetsu gave a thumbs-up, his eyes shining as he said, "Big Sister! Just wait. What kind of weapon do you want? I'll start researching it from today and definitely prepare it for you."
"A weapon…"
"A sword!"
After thinking for a moment, Artoria gave this answer. Nimaiya Ōetsu nodded without hesitation.
No problem.
No problem.
Absolutely no problem.
However.
After learning what the situation was, most of the brothers and sisters were actually very interested. Especially those who liked using weapons. One by one, they talked over each other, all making reservations with Nimaiya Ōetsu for their future weapons.
Nimaiya Ōetsu was also extremely happy. This matter soon came to an end.
After all!
Although Nimaiya Ōetsu's research was very outstanding, it was only a prototype for now. Such a prototype would definitely require time to advance. As for how long it would take, that was unknown.
Even relying on Nimaiya Ōetsu's talent and ability, perhaps without ten or eight years, it would be impossible. This was not something urgent.
Of course.
Everyone was not anxious either. The brothers and sisters were also working hard to grow, while Nimaiya Ōetsu could slowly research and forge.
Similarly!
This matter was naturally reported to Ike.
"Mm~~~"
Listening to the maid's report, Ike chuckled and waved his hand. "You may leave. I understand."
"Yes!"
"My lord!"
The maid respectfully withdrew. Ike rubbed his chin and murmured, "This kind of weapon! It is indeed very outstanding. It feels like a magic weapon? Forget it! Let Seventh Brother slowly forge it. With Seventh Brother's ability, I estimate there will be results soon enough."
Ike did not dwell too much on it either.
Well!
It was not something especially important. Or rather, there was no need to dwell too much on this matter. He could simply let Seventh Brother handle it himself. As for his side?!
No rush!
Ike's state of mind was very peaceful. Toward these things, his attitude was neither anxious nor impatient.
To be precise.
Ike had simply gotten used to it. After so much time had passed, it would be strange if his heart had not become calmer.
Take it slowly~~~
Take it slowly~~~
This could be considered Ike's extremely normal personality now.
Ambition?!
It had not disappeared. On the contrary, Ike had more and more ideas, and his ambition was also becoming larger and larger. However, he had restrained everything because there was no need to rush. Everything could be handled slowly. Time had never been something to be overly anxious about.
"Mm~~~"
A young boy with long white hair looked like a tiny infant, but he was holding a thick book and carefully reading it.
Every page.
Every page.
This tiny infant was very serious. He was extremely obedient and young. Although no one knew why such a small child actually had long white hair, it was indeed quite surprising.
However!
Watching this child carefully read every word in the book in his hands always gave people an extremely strange feeling.
"Hm?!"
The young maid following this child raised her head, then slowly walked over and said softly, "Young Master! The sky is already dark. It is time to rest. How about continuing tomorrow?"
"Hm?!"
The child raised his head in confusion, looked outside the window, tilted his head, and said, "It's already dark? It feels like I haven't read for long at all! What a pity. There's never enough time to read books. There's completely not enough time."
Listening to her young master's sigh, the young maid had no idea what she should say. What did this mean? Was he mocking her for being illiterate? Mocking her for not knowing how to study?
Also!
Young Master! You are only one year old! At such a young age, is it really good for you to read so terrifyingly every single day?
The young maid did not dare complain, nor did she dare think too much. She only continued gently, "Young Master, let's go back and rest."
"Alright." The tiny child carefully placed the bookmark, closed the book, and said, "Put this book back on the shelf. I will continue reading it tomorrow."
"Yes!"
Another young maid obediently took the book, then respectfully withdrew.
The tiny child then left with his young maid in an extremely childlike manner.
"Seimei?!"
Just as they left the library, Nimaiya Ōetsu, who happened to be passing by, looked at this child in astonishment. He especially looked at the sky and said in shock, "Seimei, you didn't just finish reading, did you? It's already almost eight!"
That was right!
It was already past eight in the evening. Although theoretically speaking, nightlife had only just begun.
The problem was.
Do not forget, neither Nimaiya Ōetsu nor Seimei was old!
That was right!
Edward Seimei.
This child was Kurozumi Yuka's son, and also the child with the F(+) rank Onmyoji talent. At most, he was only one year old.
However!
Seimei was this outstanding. Although he was not like his elder sister and elder brother, who had been special from birth, he had still displayed his special side at an extremely young age.
At only five months old, Seimei had already been able to recognize characters and read. Moreover, he especially loved reading. Although he was only one year old, calling the books he had read extensive was not an exaggeration at all.
Because!
Seimei not only liked recognizing characters and reading books, he also had a photographic memory. As long as he had read a book, he could immediately remember it. Not only that, he also possessed extremely strong comprehension ability and could very easily understand the knowledge recorded in books.
Of course.
No matter how one put it, Seimei was still too young. Studying until eight at night was indeed rather late.
"Seventh Brother!" Seimei was very obedient, and his young, adorable voice said, "Seventh Brother, aren't you also working hard until this late?"
Nimaiya Ōetsu smacked his lips, not knowing what to say.
Yet Seimei, this young child, said seriously, "I believe that we should all study hard. Only in this way can we better help Big Sister in the future and better help Father. If our Edward Family wants to grow even stronger, what it needs is our hard work. Otherwise! A family cannot grow strong through one person alone."
Listening to Seimei, this immature child, actually say such reasonable words.
At that moment.
Nimaiya Ōetsu truly fell silent. How should he put it? What should he say?
He had the urge to return to the smithy and work hard for another three days and three nights. In the end, he silently gave up on this thought. No need! No need! There was truly no need! This kind of idea was completely unnecessary…
"Let's go! Let's go!" Nimaiya Ōetsu smiled and rubbed the little boy's head, complaining, "Don't PUA me here. You spend every day like this. Hurry home and sleep, you little brat!"
"Hehehe~~~"
Seimei did not mind his seventh brother's movement either. Instead, his face was full of smiles, making Nimaiya Ōetsu unable to stop rolling his eyes. This stinky kid!
Nimaiya Ōetsu and Seimei both left.
The eight maids following these two young masters silently shook their heads.
How should it be put?!
The eight of them were respectively following two hardworking and serious young masters. The more they watched them, the more they felt that the other children they knew were pure trash. This was the standard template of other people's children, alright?!
Take a good look!
What kind of situation was this?
However!
They had just reached the training ground, which had only been completed this year just like the library.
It was still the same point. Cake Island was a very large island, and construction had always been ongoing. Whether castles, villas, hospitals, schools, office buildings, meeting halls, training grounds, libraries…
In short!
All kinds of facilities were gradually being built. The entire Cake Island was not the slightest bit smaller than a city. Of course, Ike could not simply build a few houses and call it done. All kinds of facilities definitely had to be fully constructed. This was very normal.
Only!
Just as they walked to the training ground, before they could return to the villa…
It was worth mentioning.
Although Seimei was only one year old, and Nimaiya Ōetsu was only four years old, these two brothers had already silently moved into the villa.
That was right!
They had already moved out of the castle. In reality, many people had already moved out, including Artoria, Gawain, and so on. Basically, children over the age of three had already moved out. They were all more independent, and each of them had four young maids serving them, so there was no possibility of anything going wrong.
As for Seimei, he was a rather special case. He was far too mature.
Mature!
If the other children grew extremely quickly and their strength increased very quickly, then Seimei was even more mature. Perhaps because he had read so many books, he was more mature and steady. Seimei was more mature than the others.
Of course.
The point of all this nonsense was that the children had already moved out.
In the training ground, the lights were actually still on.
"This…" Nimaiya Ōetsu blinked and said in astonishment, "Someone is training this late at the training ground?"
"It should be Brother Yujiro."
"Yujiro?"
"Ah!"
"Then that's fine!"
Nimaiya Ōetsu was stunned at first, then reacted and nodded. "That's indeed the case! If it's Yujiro, then there's definitely no problem."
Twenty-seventh son, Edward Seimei. Calling him a genius boy who loved reading was not an exaggeration at all.
Twenty-eighth son, Edward Newgate. Similar to Seimei, he had begun to mature at around three to five months old, and was also extremely obsessed with training his muscles.
"Yo!"
"Hehehe~~~"
"Seventh Brother, Brother Seimei!"
Along with this extremely young yet wild laugh, a boy with dark red semi-long hair appeared. It was still the same question: why could a tiny child's hair be this long?
Who knew!
In any case, it had grown out. Especially his skin, which was a very perfect bronze color.
Although he looked about the same as Seimei, still a young child.
However!
The terrifying muscles covering every inch of his body—he was clearly only a child, but every inch of muscle on his body looked far too terrifying.
They were simply demon-like muscles.
"Yujiro!" Nimaiya Ōetsu said helplessly, "Why aren't you resting yet? At such a young age, training until this late—can your body handle it? This isn't good for your body!"
"Tch!"
Yujiro curled his lips and said, "Brother Seimei was also reading until now. Besides! Seventh Brother, didn't you just finish resting too?"
Nimaiya Ōetsu was choked speechless once again. Regarding these two youngest brothers of his, he truly wanted to complain, but did not even know where to begin.
His two younger brothers' personalities were simply far too mature.
Mainly because!
One was gentle and refined, like a noble young master.
The other was wildly violent, completely like a beast.
In any case!
No matter how one put it, these two younger brothers of his were both extremely hardworking types. They had even stimulated their older brothers and sisters to become even more diligent and hardworking.
"Forget it!"
"Forget it!"
Nimaiya Ōetsu said helplessly, "Go back to sleep. Go back to sleep. Hurry up and sleep. If you want to work hard, work hard during the day. At night, you should sleep properly!"
"Let's go!"
"Alright!"
The three brothers were forever the last to return beneath the night.
