Our car arrived at its destination, it was a very large residence. The grounds were vast, there was a soldier's training ground.
Many soldiers were training, some were even doing combat training on the training grounds. I saw this in amazement because many people were training like military training.
The carriage started to stop, Dwayne and I got off the carriage. Looking at the building in front of me, it was huge, nobles are indeed very different from ordinary people, I can't imagine all the wealth they have.
The door started to open and an old man, with white hair and a white mustache showing, was wearing a butler's outfit and looked dignified.
"My lord, you are back, young lady is waiting for you," The butler bowed.
"Walter, Call my two daughters to the living room, I want to speak to them,"
"Yes, my lord," the butler began to leave.
Going inside, I was amazed, this room looks very sparkling. There is a decorative lamp hanging above, it seems to be a magic item, with lots of furniture and beautiful paintings.
Walking down the house, Dwayne, Gura, and I finally entered a room, it seemed this was a living room. This room could be said to be large, for a living room, with various furniture and paintings.
Dwayne, Gura, and I sat on the sofa, not long after that the door opened. Two girls one was my age and the other looked a little older.
Older girls seem to have a cocky attitude, while younger girls seem shy, this is a combination that looks, does not match at all.
The older sister is named Baidu Feather , she has a beautiful face and looks dignified, with long hair reaching to the knees, the hair is copper brown and some of the hair looks purple. Her eyes are amethyst.
As for her younger sister, her name is Kazhu Feather. She has thick hair tied in a long braid, bright grey in color, her bangs covering the middle part between her eyebrows. Her eyes are light red.
I purposely went with Reynold to his residence to meet them. During these few days, I will try to get close to the younger sister. Because if I get close to the younger sister, the older sister will also approach me later.
"Dad, you're back, I'm waiting for you" Baidu speaks.
"Um, we were waiting for you dad," followed by Kazhu's voice next.
"You two are here, please sit down, I'd like to introduce you to someone," Dwayne smiled at his two daughters.
The two of them finally sat down, looking at me. Baidu had an expression with furrowed brows when she saw me, whereas Kazhu she looked at me with a shy expression, but she seemed to be interested in me.
"I will introduce these two to you, this boy is Akatsuki and the girl is Gura, they will be your bodyguards later in the academy," Dwayne introduced me to his daughters.
Baidu had an increasingly displeased expression, as for Kazhu she became more and more interested in me after hearing her father's explanation.
"Dad, why did you bring this villager? I can take care of myself later in the academy, after all, the academy is still long for me to enter," Baidu spoke in annoyance. It seemed she had a particular problem with me, though I didn't mind.
"Of course I know, but this is very necessary when you enter the academy, nobles usually have their own bodyguards, and even have their own faction," Dwayne confirmed to Baidu.
Baidu looked annoyed and didn't accept it. She turned to me to vent her frustration.
"Hey you villager, are you even stronger than me to be my guard?" Baidu looked at me with a disdainful expression.
"Are you even questioning my strength? even though your father acknowledged my strength," I smiled in response.
Baidu had a face that was red with anger, but after that, she sighed and stood up from the sofa.
"O-older sister,"
Kazhu watched her older sister leave, also started to stand up. She turned to me with an apologetic look before chasing after Baidu.
"Hah.. for now, this seems fine," Dwayne sighed.
"So for the contract." he said as a soul contract appeared mid air.
"These are my terms, both of you will guard my two daughters for their period in the academy, that is a total of 3 years. Once you are done, I'll give you a reward that is sensible. If either of them dies, you will also die. You will also be an official part of the feather family, and I'll be teaching you our family technique, a 4 star version, once you are done with your three years, it will turn into the 5 star version. Those are my terms." he said with a smile.
"I accept, what do you think Gura?" I asked, I knew there were some flaws, I just wanted to see if she found them too.
"What about the death penalty, you should put a limit on that too." Gura said with a grin, making me smile.
"Oh, I forgot that!" Dwayne said with a chuckle.
After changing that and signing it, we were officially part of the feather family.
"Here you go." Dwayne said as he handed a book to us.
[You have learned (Blue Feather Blessing) rank 1★ - 5★! Current rank is 3★]
[Blue Feather Blessing (3★): You are able to control blue feathers to follow your every step, can be used for defense, offense, and mobility, pride of the Feather Family]
"Thank you so much Uncle Dwayne!" I said as I bowed down, grasping Gura's head and bowing hers down as well.
"HAHA! No problem kid, just take care of my daughters and the Feather Family will fully support you, you should also meet the other kids of the family, they are also tasked in guarding Baidu and Kahzu. All of you guys will go to the academy representing the Feather Family." he said patting my head.
"You both are very talented, I hope you too make our family proud." he said with a smile.
"Walter, show them their rooms, these two are our new family members!"
