Reincarnated as a Flower, Fine then I'll bloom my own way

After the incident at the feast party yesterday, four people were dead and eleven were heavily injured. The news spread all across the kingdom that some people had come to assassinate the God, but they were captured by her.

Inside the castle, deep underground, there was a prison in a dark room. The elves were inside a cage, locked and still tied with vines.

Me, Bokkon, and Aurthor were standing outside, looking at them. I was in the middle, and Bokkon and Aurthor were standing beside me.

I raised my voice and asked,

"Who are you people, and why do you want to kill me?"

They were struggling to break out, but the vines were too strong. However, one of them spoke,

"Don't give us that shit, you monster!"

Bokkon put his hand on his katana, about to draw it out. I raised my hand and stopped him.

"Answer my question... what is the reason that you want to kill me?" I asked again.

That same guy spoke again,

"Reason? We have every reason to kill you... because of you... because of you... we lost many of our people!" he said in an angry tone.

Me, Bokkon, and Aurthor were confused when he said that.

"What are you saying? I have never met you people before," I replied.

"Yeah, you haven't, but we have met those monsters you sent to our land to attack us," the male elf replied.

I was silent for a moment and then replied,

"What do you mean? I haven't sent any monsters or anything to attack you people."

"Fuck off!!!" he screamed.

"Those monsters used to live on the TEOD island, but when you got there, you drove them away towards our land, where we were living peacefully... Those monsters came out of nowhere and attacked our village. They killed many of our warriors who went to fight against them... just because of youuuu!!!!" he screamed, his voice filled with pain.

As he said that, I suddenly remembered that he was right. I made those monsters run away from the island so I could live peacefully...

Aurthor looked at me and asked,

"Miss Sumi, is he saying tru—" he started but then saw my face... filled with tears.

Bokkon also saw me and was surprised.

"Lady Sumi, are you alright!?" he asked.

I raised my hand, and the vines that were holding the elves disappeared. As that happened, the elves were confused, but Bokkon and Aurthor quickly drew out their swords and stood in front of me. I pushed them both away, and they got confused as I did that.

In a small voice, I said,

"Can you take me to the place where your other people are?"

The male elf looked at me with his yellow eyes, unsure of what to say.

Far away from the kingdom, in the middle of a jungle, many elves sat around. They had made many tents and campfires, cooking fish and meats. Then suddenly, the sound of footsteps came. They looked toward the source of the sound, and then those elves wearing black hoodies entered.

As the others saw them, their faces glowed with smiles, and they ran toward them. An old elf was there, with white hair and a beard, his eyes closed, holding a wand.

"So did you complete your mission, Yooto?" the old elf asked.

The male elf in front slightly looked down and said in a hesitant voice,

"Elder... the thing is... that..."

Suddenly, from between them...

I walked forward and stood there, looking at them with a cold face. Bokkon and Aurthor also came and stood beside me.

"And... who are these young kids?" the elder asked.

Yooto replied with a snake-like voice,

"It's... the... Heaven Goddess..."

As he said that, every other elf's face turned to horror, even the elder. Everyone there stepped back quickly, moving far from us.

"Elder, please listen to us..." Yooto tried to say.

"You betrayed us, didn't you?!" the elder screamed.

"No, that's not —" Yooto tried to say, but suddenly...

I went on my knees, put my hand on the ground, and bowed my head.

Bokkon and Aurthor's eyes widened in surprise.

"L-Lady Sumi..." Bokkon said.

"I know what I have done, and I am truly sorry for that... and I know my apology won't bring the dead back," I said in a soft tone.

After that, Bokkon also went on his knees and bowed down. Aurthor, in shock, also went on his knees and bowed down.

"No matter how many times I say sorry, the things you all have been through won't change... because of my selfishness, many of your people lost their lives," I continued saying.

"I am ready for any punishment you are willing to give, even if it's death..." I said.

Bokkon and Aurthor's eyes widened in shock.

"Please forgive my lord for what she has done. If you want to give punishment, then I am ready to take it in her place. There are people waiting for her to return... her life is very precious to those people who are living in her debt, so please..." Bokkon begged.

As we said that, everyone there went silent, watching us. We kept bowing down there.

Then suddenly, the elder approached me, went on his knees, and raised my head.

My eyes were in tears. He looked at me with a smile and said,

"We forgive you."

"H..huh..?" I said in confusion.

Bokkon and Aurthor also raised their heads in confusion.

"Your rank is that of a god, and here you are, bowing down to us, begging for forgiveness. And there are people who are ready to die for you. Then... you aren't a bad person, and your face tells that too... you are truly a.... god," he said with a smile.

I wiped my tears and looked at him.

"Are you serious..." I asked.

The elder smiled and replied,

"Yes." He turned around and said,

"Everyone agrees with me, right?"

Every other elf there smiled and nodded their heads. Yooto came forward and said,

"Lady Sumi told us that she will give us a place in her country to stay as her apology, so I brought her here to you."

The elder heard that and looked at me.

"Yes... that's true. I will welcome you to my land, and I swear to protect your race no matter what I won't abonded you...." I replied in a soft tone.

The elder thought for a while, then turned back and said,

"Well then, who is ready to live in the land of the God?!"

The other elves there cheered and screamed.

I softly smiled and, in my mind, I said,

(Not everyone in this world are bad...)
