Today is the Institute's day off.

I also thought the last time I took a holiday, what am I supposed to do to be amazing?

That's what I was asking Gina, and just when Master Glenn's man appeared.

Apparently, why don't we have tea together this afternoon? That seems to be an invitation.

Gina smiled when she replied that she would gladly accept it because she had nothing to do or want to do.

"Now it's time to brush up Master Chelsea in the morning."

Don't defy Gina at times like this.

I snorted.

When I realized it, I was surrounded by Gina and Martha, and then strange maids who rushed to support me.

And he made me thoroughly beautiful by six men.

It also means removing body stains, and it also means wearing them.

Take a bath or massage, tie your hair, wear a dress or put on makeup......

I don't feel too hungry because I was put in my mouth with chocolate and a bite-sized sandwich along the way.

Time passed as they were told but remained, and it was afternoon.

After the first bell of the afternoon rang, Master Glenn picked me up to my room.

Master Glenn looked at me and gave me a look of surprise for a moment.

I checked to see if something was wrong, but I'm not sure.

Gina's chosen spring dress was adorned with small flowers made from sea gems called pearls.

"It looks great on you. Let's make tea after a walk in the garden."

When Master Glenn smiled gently, he withdrew my hand and walked out.

It proceeded further north from the Institute's quarters and previously reached the Grand Garden visited with Master Marx.

Master Glenn goes further north without stopping there.

Is that it? From the center of the grand garden, on the north side, the junction is stretched, and only allowed to enter, isn't it?

Wouldn't you hit an invisible wall if you kept walking like this? I thought so, but he went too far.

Because this is already the northern end of the Great Garden, no doubt about it.

How did you get through so much?

Not sure, he took a trail beside the big garden and crooked a small arch.

"Wow... beautiful"

There were many brightly colored roses at the end of the arch. This seems to be a rose garden.

"This is Himitsu's place, so don't tell anyone else,"

Master Glenn laughed with his index finger against his mouth.

I felt kind of like a dream and nodded over and over again.

I enjoyed many different types of roses for a while.

I never get tired of seeing red, pink, yellow on white, purple on orange, two colors on one flower, or lots of petals.

As we proceeded through the rose garden, we saw the east house with a round roof.

"I have tea for you in that East Room. Let's go."

That's what Lady Glenn says, moving slowly.

Speaking of which, I've been holding hands ever since I left the room, do they think I'm going to get lost...?

I guess I should tell her that she may look short and look like a little kid, but she's twelve now so she can walk properly.

Oh, my God. I went to the East Room while I was thinking about it.

There was a slightly older maid inside, smiling at me.

Slowly inside, there was a round table in the center and a bench was set up with a circle to surround it only half a circle.

There are many large cushions on the bench.

As recommended by Master Glenn, the maid moved out as she sat her hips around the middle of the bench.

A warm cup of tea will be provided on the table.

"Thank you"

When I thanked the maid, she smiled more gently than she had just done.

"I've got a lot to talk about, shall we eat before then"

That's what Master Glenn said to me, so I'll get the cake while I care about the manners.

Fluffy sponges are accented with understated sweetness cream and strawberries on top and delicious.

It helps to have a bite size, as usual.

"Chelsea can eat a lot now. Let's increase the amount of magic at this rate."

There was a cake in my mouth, so I snorted.

They're letting me live like I couldn't have thought of where I was at home.

I have a maid and she takes care of me all day.

I can study as much as I want, and I can feed you a good meal.

I can sleep in a fuzzy bed at night.

... Sometimes I wonder if it's a dream, and I'm jumping up.

Even if I treat you like a dignitary now, one day, you'll be sent home after your research and investigation.

When I get home, will I go back to living like I was being skipped a meal or munched as a punishment, just like before?

I shook my head sideways, remembering that I was trying not to think about it.

"What's wrong with you?

Speaking of which, I wasn't alone!

He seemed to have been seen shaking his head beside him, and that's what Master Glenn called me.

"No, it's nothing"

Master Glenn put his hand on his mouth for a while and said he had the same attitude as he was thinking.

"Well...... it's time for you to listen to this one?

"Yes, sir"

I stretched out my spine viscidly to Master Glenn's words.

I wonder what the hell they're going to hear.

Will it piss you off?

When I was freaked out, Master Glenn lowered the maid.

"I lowered it to a position that the maid wouldn't hear, but I'm in a position where I can see it. It is considered problematic that there are only two young men and women. I hope you forgive me."

Indeed, Gina or Martha are bound to have it when it comes to a tea party to increase the amount of magic in the name of the usual magic study group......

I've never known if that's what you meant.

"I'm talking about Chelsea's skills."

Master Glenn said as he peered into my face.

"The skill of producing the seed as you wished, this would have produced the seed of the Spirit Tree during this time, wouldn't it?

"Yes."

"I think they'll tell me to produce a lot of species from Tris in the future. Maybe from other researchers and nobles. But from now on, I just want you to think a little bit about it when you produce seeds."

Master Glenn sipped a sip of tea when he separated it there.

"Chelsea can produce any species, if she wishes. It can also produce seeds to kill people."

"... is that poisonous grass seed?

"Oh."

Ever since I was looking at the drawings, I've been thinking about that.

Maybe we can produce poisonous grass seeds if we wish.

"I'm sure if Chelsea wishes, she can produce even seeds that keep spraying poison. Easily produces seeds that kill people. If you're bad, you can destroy the world, not the country."

"I don't..."

"If the research and investigation is done and you go back to your original home, can you say you won't produce it?

I opened my eyes to the words of Master Glenn.

Not now. I'm letting you live a happy life.

But I don't know the future.

"When I got home to that house, I... I..."

The words didn't last.

When I realized, I was holding my hands tighter and stronger, and my nails were eating in.

"I didn't want to talk to Chelsea today. I wanted to ask you a favor."

I'm sure you'll be asking me to seal the magic when the research and investigation is done.

Because if you seal it, you won't have to worry about producing bad seeds......

I looked down, unable to see Master Glenn's serious face.

"Please, I don't want you to produce bad seeds forever from now on"

... I hear a different word than I thought.

"To that end, I want to go through the process of becoming a researcher here after the research and investigation, or to become an adopted daughter in another noble house that will take care of Chelsea. What do you say?

And I lifted up my head, and saw Lady Glenn.

Master Glenn is smiling gently.

"Aren't we supposed to seal the magic?

"Why should I do that? If you've never produced or will not produce bad seeds before, you don't need to seal them."

Maybe if you ask me that.

I just thought I'd get an answer for something I'd been trying not to think about, and I remembered my parents all the time.

"Will my parents be convinced?

"I'll take care of that over here, so it's okay. Chelsea just needs to stay put. So, can I ask you an answer?

"Regards"

I bowed my head deeply to Lady Glenn on the spot.
