Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

Waiting in the dining room, staring at the blank screen floating in the air in the middle of the dining table, everyone just waited for the dessert to finish up.

Everyone waited silently, waiting for things to come out from this now-closed kitchen room.

And though it has only been around twelve minutes, almost everyone was just waiting with anticipation-filled hearts and staring at the door to the kitchen.

Big brother was making something new and everyone was waiting for him to come back with that tasty~ thing.

I could feel he was having fun with little Anna while Celes was just waiting here on my head now that everyone knows she can at least talk with 'only' big brother and disguise things.

Big brother left out many things about their powers and even about me and they haven't even started talking about what things happened with him when he was dragged by that filthy creature to that dangerous forest when he was weak as a leaf.

He gave me the name Zoe, and I loved it more than anything.

This was my own name, my first name, and the best name I will have in my long life I will have.

I don't know much about my mom but I know that I am a phoenix and everything I need to know about myself.

I do have all the knowledge my mom had, but I have no experience of anything other than that.

There are also many restrictions on me that I couldn't even understand the reason even while knowing it.

I know something about my mom and from the knowledge I had, and the hidden things in those deep words, I at least knew mom didn't have a good time in all this time.

And because she didn't have a name of her own, I was even more glad to have a name of my own like this.

And I know just from the fact that she chose the best big brother to take care of me, who even give me a name that would be my own, just how much she loved me.

And I even have this wonderful family and a little sister and a big sister and a smart little brother.

This was an awesome~ family and all these people were special on their own.

Just like big sister Elle who likes big brother and big brother likes her too~, hehehe, just like every parent here loves their children.

I haven't seen much of the world, but even I knew this was a special family and all of them had their special things.

Like the adorable little Anna that even I loved from the first moment, my eyes fell on her marvelous self.

Only big brother knew this but, I could see things differently and that original form was the core nature of all beings.

Just like how big brother was, like the light of the sun, or how big sister Elle was like the darkness of night.

How big brother's grandpa was like a boat in an endless ocean and his grandmother was different waves of the sea.

Sister Elle's grandpa was a violet wind and her grandma a metallic silver flower.

Like how big brother's mom was a single gold coin in a small hand of a child.

Or how his dad was a small flower garden with a bright light shining on it in the middle of a dark pool of crimson blood.

His first aunt, a beautiful teacup untouched in the middle of a sea of flames, or his first uncle, who was a mechanical bird in the endless sky.

His second aunt, a fresh and gorgeous bunny made of beautiful flowers with special purple eyes, or his second uncle, who was a fine green hat, floating on a flower field.

My new brother and sister were also exceptional, where Carla was a half-forged sword in a giant smithy filled with countless blades and brother Alf was a forever unfinished beautiful book filled with words of magic.

I could see many things, and this was just the gist of it.

From their character, personality, and emotions and if I wanted, I can also know some things about those beings with my eyes.

But I wasn't strong enough to do much of the things just yet.

I could grow faster than most humans, but even that was barely close to big brother's natural growth speed.

But he was now a special being too, so his natural strength was far different from what met to everyone's eyes.

He was strong, and I knew he would be stronger as time passes.

As for me, after counting all the restrictions and stuff, I could say that I was like big sister Carla and brother Alf.

Maybe 'prodigy' was the word they used, and it meant those exceptionally excellent in their fields.

But… I could do anything I wanted, unlike them.

I can wield any weapon I wanted, learn any magic there was, or even make potions and medicines that were unbelievable.

So, ultimately, I did not know my 'path' just yet.

But, big brother told me not to worry about stuff like that so I will heed his words and just do want I want~!

And right now, I wanted to wait for big brother to finish this new thingy he was making.

Back when we were at the first home, he prised mom's cooking so much that I could never even understand what he meant by those high words, but... after eating some things made by a mom that he cherished, I understood.

I understood just how marvelous she was and just how great that level of mastery was to make something so normal taste soooo~ divine!

But his cooking was special too.

Everyone was restlessly waiting on the tip of their toes but, thankfully, we didn't have to wait longer.

-Creeeek.

The door opened and the four of them walked in with trollies with a white cloth covering the things inside the closed plates.

And as soon as that door opened, a warm aroma blasted out of the room, suddenly making all of us hungry.

"Wow..." Many gasps filled the room just from this unique hot but sweet aroma, which was heavier than the 'ice cream' we all knew about.

This was closer to the chocolaty bread served on the dinner table a while ago, but this one didn't come close to that.

It was rich, and we can feel the different flavors in these sweet scents.

Big brother's mom, well, maybe now also my mom's eyes shined, unlike anyone.

Was this her greed? Can I actually call this greed when I could feel she had no actual interest in the thing called 'money'?

I don't actually think she cared much about what these new things big brother made or the things that one might think made her soooo popular.

From what I could see, feel and understand, with my lacking understanding of this world, I knew the one who loved big brother the most in this room was her.

And Celes and I were the ones who loved him as much as her.

She was a mom who cared about his child, but now, even she understood that the child that she took so much care of, the same amazing child that saved her once, was now a big boy.

'Hehehe.'

Big brother was now grown up, and she didn't have much time with him.

I could understand her emotions and I knew the cute little Anna wearing that small pink apron also felt her mama's emotions.

She was a very smart child, and she really was an understanding one.

As a mother, Eon's mom was perfect but, everyone had their flaws and those flaws would fix with time too.

I didn't know much about humans, but I understood emotions as well as little Anna.

So I knew everyone had watery mouths and bubbling expectations from the new things brother had made.

[[ "Will it be that good, big brother~?" ]]

I asked through our bond, and he smiled at me from the front.

[[ "I believe you will like it, little sister~!" ]]

He was excited, and I knew it meant these things would be really amazing.

And the way Anna was just gulping saliva with hunger-filled eyes like that, I knew this was going to be colorfully delicious.
