Chapter 2215 Surprise!

"...If so, Anna let the youngest out."

Listening to her grandpa's request, Anna pouted but released the youngest out of her origin card. Only to hear a loud Ann complain, "Anna, you promised you would not do that ever again!

"Did I? I don't remember!" Anna answered with a grin on her face, causing the youngest's face to turn red out of her sheer rage toward her nasty twin, but soon she swallowed her anger and eloquently replied, "That's alright. Please don't forget in the future!

Then, dipping into a curtsy toward her mother she greeted her, 'Mother, please forgive me for the delayed greeting. I could not properly greet you earlier as I was occupied dealing with a nuisance! "That's okay, let us head inside, the Southern Princess led the trio to her personal garden. On their way, she locked at Anna and said, "You could learn a thing or two from the youngest."

"Sure and you too could learn to shut the fuck up from those plants, Anna retorted pointing at the plants in the garden.

"Language, honey" A familiar voice sharply corrected Anna. When the latter turned to find the source of the voice, finding the source and noticing the familiar figures next to her, Anna exclaimed, "Grandma, what are you guys doing here?"

Arriving in the garden, Anna found that all members of the main Heatsend family and important figures from their trusted allies such as the Lorn family, Art family, etc were present in the garden along with a luxurious buffet spread arranged on the other side of the garden. Seeing this, she was puzzled. Not understanding of what was going on.

"Surprise, it is a small banquet to welcome the youngest member of our family." A blurry middle-aged demigod cried in joy. Seeing him, Anna's mood instantly improved. She rushed into his embrace and hugging his wrist she asked, "Uncle, you are here too? When did you come back?

"Just now. I heard my youngest niece is about to be named so I had to come. I wouldn't miss it for anything in the world, though the Southern Prince traveled the path of an enlightened detached from mortal attachments, he still made time for his family.

Even though he had cut all his mortal attachments to travel the enlightened path he was unable to cut his attachment to his family. That was because he pursued the higher power to gain the strength to protect his loved ones. Cutting his attachment to his loved ones would mean he would lose his reason to pursue the higher power and would be lost on the path of the enlightened. Therefore, he was unable to cut his attachment to his family.

Listening to her uncle's reply, Anna's mood once again soured. She did not hesitate to make her feelings known. Letting go of her uncle's arm she loudly complained to him, "You did not have the time to attend my last birthday but you showed up for this. I hate you!"

The Southern Prince who did not panic when facing multiple Supreme beings trying to invade the five regions with their armies was now sweating profusely trying to think of ways to please his niece who was mad at him. He was not surprised by Anna's new personality as she has always been this comfortable around him. However, this was the first time he had seen her be so outspoken when in company.

Be that as it may, just when he was running out of time, his father came to his rescue, 'Anna, don't make everything about you. Today is about the youngest. As her older twin, you should be happy for her."'

Anna felt like screaming at the top of her lungs that the thing they kept calling the youngest wasn't her twin but her origin card. However, noticing the happiness and joy of the youngest through their shared memories, she reluctantly agreed, 'Fine. Uncle, you are off the hook for tonight!" "Awe, I knew my favorite niece could not be mad at me for long! the Southern Prince rubbed his niece's head as he searched for the girl of the hour, his second niece. Finding her standing next to his sister with a controlled smile on her face, he walked toward her dragging Anna along with him. Before he could speak the youngest dipped into a curtsy and greeted him, "Hello, sir. Thank you for coming to my naming ceremony"

The Southern Prince was surprised. His niece's politeness toward him felt new to him. After all, the youngest looked just like Anna. Shaking his head, he embraced the youngest in a bear hug saying, "Little lady, let me show you the true southern greeting"

Letting go of her, he grasped her shoulder and locked eyes with her. Then, with a strong tone, he warned, "No need to be polite with me. Address me casually as Anna does. Otherwise, I will think you don't like me. Got it?"

The youngest panicked, as her uncle was the first one in the family to accept her without any reservations, unlike others in the family. Though she was obsessed with her mother and her teachings, she liked her uncle very much. After all, most of Anna's fond memories were associated with him. Therefore, she did not want him to misunderstand her. Not knowing what to do, she turned to look at her mother for an answer. Seeing her give her a nod, she excitedly exclaimed with a high-pitched voice, 'Okay, Uncle!

"Now, that's more like a proper Southerner, the Southern Prince laughed heartily as he rubbed his second niece's hair. Then, eyeing his sister, he said, "It's about time you introduce the youngest to the family and friends with her birth name! Only to receive a glare in return. Being glared by his sister the Southern Prince could not help but complain, "What wrong did I do now?"

"Nothing, she wanted the youngest to be a secret but I insisted otherwise, the Southern Ruler revealed his daughter's intentions in a fit of anger seeing that his daughter still hadn't changed her mind about grooming the youngest in secret, hidden from the rest of the world, when he had repeatedly made it clear that he did not want such a life for the youngest.

Many would parise and agree with the Southern Princess's plans for the youngest even the Southern Ruler would have if he hadn't spent quality time with her and come to love her as his second granddaughter. Though he doesn't seem to mind the youngest working twice as hard to pull both her and Anna's weight when it comes to politics and such.
