<span style="font-weight:400">"Everyone, you can take your coats off. We''re out of the cold region." Sophia stated as she looked out the window.
<span style="font-weight:400">Keith and Derek followed her lead and looked out. And what they saw was green trees and grasses. The snow was slowly disappearing.
<span style="font-weight:400">Keith and Derek quickly took off their coats.
<span style="font-weight:400">"This is the first time you have seen something like this, right?" Sophia smiled as she asked the children.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm." "It looks beautiful."
<span style="font-weight:400">"This is like my vige!" Fira stated as she looked out. In her vige, the grass was green and vibrant.
<span style="font-weight:400">Sophia realized, "Keith, you shouldn''t say anything about Mir being a Samui and Fira being a forest spirit."
<span style="font-weight:400">"Hmm?"
<span style="font-weight:400">"Before we set off again, we''ll stay at a friend''s home. We don''t want to surprise them." Sophia exined.
<span style="font-weight:400">"I see." Keith turned to Fira and Mir. The entire estate was calm about Fira and Mir''s existence. There was nothing to be surprised since they continued to show up.
<span style="font-weight:400">But the same couldn''t be said when they meet with other people. They might be shocked by them.
<span style="font-weight:400">"I see." Keith nodded,
<span style="font-weight:400">"I will say they''re my familiars. I won''t say anything about them being a spirit and Samui."
<span style="font-weight:400">"I will keep quiet!" Fira waved her hand up.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Bo!" Mir did the same. But no one besides Keith could understand him.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm." Sophia nodded. Like that, the carriage arrived in front of a mansion. Keith stared.
<span style="font-weight:400">It was smaller than the estate.
<span style="font-weight:400">"We wee you to our home." A butler opened the door to let them out. And like that, William exited, followed by Sophia. Keith was thest one to walk out, being the youngest.
<span style="font-weight:400">And there were four people who were there. The man smiled, "It''s been a while, William." The man had light chestnut hair and light brown eyes.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Indeed. It has been a few months, Ryan." William greeted his friend. He turned to Derek and Keith.
<span style="font-weight:400">"It''s nice to meet you again, Mr. Ryan." Derek bowed his head. He had talked with Ryan before when he attended a party.
<span style="font-weight:400">"It''s great to see you again." Ryan smiled as he turned his head to Keith,
<span style="font-weight:400">"Greetings, Baron Stillword. My name is Keith, the fourth son. It''s an honor to meet you." Keith did a light bow.
<span style="font-weight:400">"So this is the family jewel of your family." Ryanughed,
<span style="font-weight:400">"I can see why he''s called that."
<span style="font-weight:400">Keith gave a light smile.
<span style="font-weight:400">Ryan added, "Are those your familiars?" He noticed Mir and Fira on his shoulders.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm. These two are my familiars."
<span style="font-weight:400">"It''s rare for people to have a familiar at your age." Ryan was surprised.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Is it?" Keith scratched his head.
<span style="font-weight:400">Ryan smiled, "I should introduce you to my family. This is my wife, Reba."
<span style="font-weight:400">"Greetings." The beautiful woman beside Ryan greeted them.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Here is my daughter, Sarah."
<span style="font-weight:400">"Hello, there." Sarah did a light bow as well. But her eyes never lost sight of Keith, who had a smile on his face.
<span style="font-weight:400">"And this here is Jack, my son. Sarah and Jack are the same age as you, Keith. Please get along with them." Ryan exined.
<span style="font-weight:400">Keith nodded and raised his hand, "It''s nice to meet you."
<span style="font-weight:400">"Same here." Jack had a stoic expression as he took Keith''s hand. There was a frown on Ryan''s face as he saw that. But he turned to everyone,
<span style="font-weight:400">"Pleasee in and rest. Our butlers will show you to the rooms."
<span style="font-weight:400">"I will show you the way!" Sarah raised her hand into the air.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Alright, Sarah and the butlers will lead the way," Ryan smiled.
<span style="font-weight:400">Sarah and the butlers brought them to their room. Throughout the walk, Sarah was beside Keith.
<span style="font-weight:400">It didn''t take long before they arrived at their rooms.
<span style="font-weight:400">Keith looked around and nodded his head. There was only a bed there. But it was more than amodating for them. Keith rested on the bed. Itsted a few seconds before a knock came at the door,
<span style="font-weight:400">"Come in." The person who entered his room was Sarah. Keith got up. He bowed his head,
<span style="font-weight:400">"Greetings, Ms. Sarah."
<span style="font-weight:400">"There''s no need to call me that. We''re the same age. Please call me Sarah." Sarah waved her hand.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Alright, Sarah." Keith said with a smile, "What do you need from me?"
<span style="font-weight:400">"Do you want to take a walk around the vige?" Sarah said with an excited look.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Sure." Keith nodded. He was curious about the vige.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Let''s go, Mir, Fira." Mir and Fira hopped onto his shoulders.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm!" Sarah held onto Keith''s hand as they walked out of his room. When the two were about to leave,
<span style="font-weight:400">"Where are you two going?" Reba saw Sarah at the front door.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Mother, I will be bringing Keith out to the vige."
<span style="font-weight:400">"That''s fine. Are Jack and Derek going with you?" Reba was curious.
<span style="font-weight:400">"No. Derek said he wanted to take a rest. And Jack is doing his usual thing."
