Chapter 459: Immediately__new Emory

Scarlet did not know if a group of people could all be shocked into awkward silence at once, but that was exactly what happened after Emory spoke up.

Since when did she consider them all to be family?

"I have been meaning to ask you dear Scarlet, why are the flowers leading up to the castle mismatched? They are also so close to the ground.

I want to uproot and replant them." She smiled at Scarlet, looking at her with a look of affection.

Scarlet felt the heebie jeebies!!..Being stared at affectionately by Emory was sort of making her skin crawl.

"With your permission of course." Emory added.

Everyone looked at Scarlet, piercing her with their gazes that carried a myriad of emotions.

Some wondered if this was the hallelujah moment when Scarlet would choose to embrace forgiveness and go along with Emory.

Others wondered if Scarlet’s blunt tongue was about to rip through Emory like her hands and knives often ripped through her favorite chicken.

"This is such a lovely meal. Truly, thank you so much Mega for inviting us. Perhaps I can come over more often and learn how to cook from you ladies.

I know my Emmett would be happier with warm home cooked meals." Fully aware of the horrified looks she was receiving, Emory casually continued on as if this was nothing.

Scarlet tilted her head and looked at Esong, a dozen questions in her mind. When he said that she should prepare to meet a new Emory he did not say that it would be immediate.

Someone dropped a fork on the floor, and every eye followed that sound.

It was Mega Su whose fork had dropped.

"Pardon me please."

She bent down to pick up the fork but something swooped in, getting to the fork before she did.

"Aah!" She screamed.

Her voice carried terror and she cradled her hand, eyes wide with disbelief.

"Severus!" Scarlet shouted sternly.

The hound glanced at her arrogantly and gobbled up the bacon which had fallen down along with the fork.

This was good bacon, from the pigs which ate spiritual herbs, and drunk crystal water. All the human was going to do was throw it away.

Severus considered it a merits deed what he had just done.

"I am fine." Mega announced loudly.

Most of her children were already on their feet with worried looks on their faces. It seemed, they were ready to come running towards her.

"I am sorry mother." Scarlet apologized to Mega.

Mega whose arm was being checked by Dorian waved her daughters apology away.

"Don’t worry, I should have known better than to come between Severus and bacon. He always steals every last morsel from the kitchen as well."

Severus raised his head up at the misuse of the word steal.

How was it stealing when he tended to the herb garden and occasionally checked on those succulent pigs.

In fact, at this point, he was a co-owner of all the live stock on this planet.

"Severus, come here. I will give you more bacon." Emory waved two pieces of bacon on her fork in the air.

Severus was not one to turn down good bacon and he walked over as she wished. Emory fed him two slices of bacon.

Severus stayed around and looked at her plate.

"What a good dog." Emory said enthusiastically.

She fed it two more, then more and some more until her plate run dry.

As soon as she was out, Severus turned around and walked away from her.

Elroy chuckled while Carolyn smirked.

Those who knew Severus also knew that he was not much of a social dog. If you had something good and he wanted it, he would be on his best behavior.

As soon as he finished eating, he would leave, not even turning back to look back at you once.

Emory had been planning to pat Severus’s head as she had seen the empress doing with the dogs in the royal palace.

Severus however had no intention to be touched and he walked away, leaving Emory’s hand in the air.

"I will buy him more meat from the supermarket." Emory said.

Scarlet looked at Esong and he shrugged.

’I didn’t tell her to buy your dog meat.’ His eyes said.

"Okay, so random thought. What do you guys think about my new design for a storage bracelet that does not have to be worn around the arm?"

Carolyn, with a new topic charged into the awkwardness around the table.

She showed everyone a hologram of a pendant that looked a lot like the ones sold in the temples.

"I am thinking of contacting the religious council to propose this idea. We wear these pendants as a symbol of our faith.

But, if you think about it deeply, aside from faith, what other purpose do they serve?" Carolyn went on, unaware of the horrified look Scarlet was giving her.

"No" Scarlet blurted. "Bad idea Caro, these are blessed pendants. If you tell the people that they serve no purpose then of what use is faith?

You might as well tell them to stop believing in the Gods again."

These had come from the underworld, blessed by different deities. She had paid good crystal for them.

There was no way Carolyn would be allowed to melt them down and turn them into something else.

Besides, didn’t she just engaged? Her mind should be on wedding dresses and royalty not new inventions.

"Well...." Adler fiddled around with the pendant around his neck and cocked his head from side to side. "It is sort of true that they are the only things on our bodies which serve no other purpose."

"Except for keeping us safe." Esong chimed in. He had been in battle and he knew what he saw.

The pendants gave mecha warriors hope and those who died did so with smiles on their faces.

He was with Scarlet, let the pendants remain as they were.

"I like my pendant, it says beauty, love and popertity.." Halley the youngest and one who no one expected to have an opinion on this topic chimed in.

Others wondered what popertity meant.

"Sweetie you mean prosperity." Fey corrected her.

"Ooh." A few people muttered.

"Lanta raised her arm, a move which surprised everyone. She and Arya had barely said anything at all morning.

Beord smiled proudly. To the others it appeared as if he was happy to see her engaging with them.

"You don’t need to raise your hand dear its not a classroom. Just say what you want to freely. " Mega told her.

"Why do we raise our hands in a classroom?" Gregor asked with a serious look on his young face.

"Shhh!!" Beord told Gregor.

Elroy rolled his eyes and patted Gregor on the back. "I will explain to you why he is like this when you are older. Our brother is thinking not with his mind but his...."

"Elroy!!" Mega roared.

She sent him an intense and harsh glare. If he dared to say something unsavory right now she would chop his head off.

"Chopsticks, I was going to say chopsticks mother." Elroy smiled slyly.

A few snickers went around the table, especially among the Su siblings and their parents glared at them, prompting them to stop smiling.

"What were you going to say dear?" Mega asked Lanta.
