My Servant System-Chapter 86 85: Departure

I sighed as I looked over the sleeping figure of Jahi.

After a heated night we had fallen asleep in each others arms, making the most of our last night at home.

Jahi lay in the bed sprawled out, her large body taking up a good portion of the bed. Wrapped in her arms was a pillow, which she hugged tightly to her chest, her nose buried into it as she took deep, rhythmic breaths.

Smiling at how she muttered "Kat..." in her sleep, I silently set about packing up our clothes and others items, placing them inside two large suitcases the Countess had given us.

We both had very little; Jahi had one dress, three suits, and three different casual outfits, as well as a few different nightwear. As for me, I had three maid dresses, my brown set of clothes for physical activities, and some nightwear.

I pursed my lips as I looked down at the suitcases, our items taking up very little space.

However, after remembering the large amount of books, utensils, money, and other small items we would need, I smiled wryly down at the space. ƒ𝑟𝙚e𝔀𝗲𝒃n𝒐𝘷𝗲Ɩ.c𝗼𝚖

Using my sneak skill to help reduce my noise, I lifted the suitcases and exited our bedroom, gently laying them on the table as I started packing the supplies we had bought the other day.

It only took me a few minutes, but I was now staring down at two full cases, and after closing them and placing them next to the door, I made my way down the dim hall, the fickle light of dawn streaking through the windows.

Going to the kitchen, I nodded to some of the servants who were cleaning, before gathering a few ingredients from the pantry and some meat from the frozen room.

I smiled as I started going through the familiar motions, mixing flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl, before making a well in the center. Adding the milk, butter, and cracking the egg, I watched as the solids and liquids mixed to create a thick batter.

Unlike before, I decided to try and add a little... something extra.

Sprinkling in some cinnamon and slicing some apples into tiny cubes, I remixed everything, pouring the batter into a buttered pan.

Lighting the fire crystal below it, I waited a minute or so before taking the pan handle, flipping the pancake smoothly.

Grinning to myself, I slowly cooked the rest of the batter before placing the hot pancakes inside a small over, letting them stay warm while I quickly seared a few sausage links.

Finishing, I looked down at the large pile of pancakes with a grin, before making my way back to our room.

I entered and started setting the table, chuckling when I watched a half dressed Jahi stumble into the room, her lidded amethyst eyes zeroing onto the pancakes before smiling.

Sitting down, I watched as she slowly savored the breakfast, letting out low moans as she finished each bite.

Sitting beside her I poured us tea, taking a sip before I started eating as well.

Comparing our portions made me chuckle, as I only managed to eat three of the large, fluffy pancakes, while Jahi had the other nine.

"Mmm~ Kat, I love you so much~!"

I chuckled as she leaned over, nuzzling against my cheek.

"I love you too, Mistress~"

She stopped, grinning at me as she said "Oh, I guess I have room for something sweet as well~"

What followed was a quick helping of Jahi's 'batter'.

~~~

Carrying the suitcases over to the carriage, I placed them on the back, strapping them in before rejoining Jahi.

We stood side by side, looking over at the Marquess, the Countess, and mother.

All three wore grins, but the Countess held mother as both had tears in their eyes.

"Come here~"

Spreading her arms, the Marquess wrapped Jahi in a hug, the two giant demoness' embracing one another before smirking.

Leaning forwards, the Marquess whispered something to Jahi, making her grin before stepping towards the Countess.

Giving her a hug as well, Jahi nodded to my mother before stepping back.

The Marquess chuckled as she looked down at me, and she said "Try not to kill anyone, yeah?"

I pursed my lips, tilting my head as I said "Hmm... I'll think about it?"

Hearing my response that sounded more like a question, the Marquess grinned at me, her hand ruffling my ears as she chuckled "Well, I guess that's the best I could hope for huh?"

I nodded, before looking at the Countess.

She stepped forwards, pulling my head into her chest as she stroked my hair.

"Hah... you felt more like a daughter than Jahi did... who's going to go shopping with me now?"

I chuckled at that, returning her hug before saying "Mother will go with you."

The woman in question nodded, before approaching me, gently cupping my cheeks in her hand as she placed a kiss on my forehead. 𝒇𝒓eewe𝒃𝑛𝒐𝘃𝒆𝚕.co𝘮

Wrapping me in a large hug, mother whispered "Be good, Katherine... Please..."

Remaining silent, I just tightened my hug, before widening my eyes when mother whispered "Now watch their reactions when I say this..."

Stepping back, mother coughed, grabbing everyones attention.

The Marquess was rubbing her knuckles on Jahi's head, making the younger giant frown as she tried to shover her mother away. The Countess watched on with a smile.

"Ahem... So, I didn't know for sure, but..."

Placing her hand gently on her stomach, my mother grinned up at the Marquess and Countess, saying...

"I... Think I am pregnant."

Silence fell on the street, the guards freezing in place as they widened their eyes, while Jahi and I broke into grins, looking towards the two nobles.

The Marquess was completely still, her mouth wide open as she stared at my mother, completely confused, while the Countess was alternating her gaze between her wife and my mother, her lips slowly being pulled into a huge grin.

Rushing forwards, the Marquess wrapped my mother in a hug, holding her tight as she swayed from foot to foot, the Countess joining them a moment later.

Looking at Jahi, I started laughing, leaning into her as she placed an arm over my shoulder.

Turning our gazes back towards our parents, we both laughed, enjoying the moment.

Pulling back, the Marquess looked down at mother with a conflicted face, saying "Wait... who's is it?"

That made everyone fall silent again, before the Countess slapped the Marquess' shoulder.

"It doesn't matter you dolt! Come here Julie, let's pray it's my child; at least we'll know they won't be an idiot!"

Glaring at the Marquess, the Countess held mother in her arms, who was grinning as she stared up at the Marquess.

"Oh, I don't know, she has her moments..."

"Too few, too spread apart!"

The Marquess pouted, scratching her cheek before looking back at us.

"I uh... guess you both didn't know?"

We shook our heads, and I looked at mother, saying "Well, at least we'll be back around the time of the birth..."

She nodded, grinning as she said "You both are going to have a younger sibling..."

Glancing up at Jahi, I chuckled when I saw her eyes widen, finally realizing that fact.

"...Oh."

The Countess pointed at her daughter, saying "See?! Dolts, the both of them. Hah..."

Even as she complained, the Countess grinned widely at her daughter, her sapphire eyes glowing with warmth.

Taking a step forwards, the Marquess wrapped her arms around the Countess and Mother, pursing her lips as she said "I wish you had known earlier; it makes me feel terrible to send them off like that..."

Mother nodded, saying "I only know because I missed my cycle for the seventh day last night..."

The Countess nodded, looking up at her wife as she said "You remember how it was with me; took a bit to know..."

Shrugging, the Marquess looked back down at the Countess, saying "Should we..."

Sighing, the Countess said "I haven't been on medicine since the Academy... you know that elves and demons have low reproduction rates..."

The Marquess sighed as well, before grinning at mother.

"This makes me so happy..."

Looking back at us, the Countess pursed her lips as she said "I hate to say this... but you should get going. The journey is long, and Banshee's can't use warp circles..."

Jahi and I nodded, and I quickly gave my mother another hug, saying "Send letters will you?"

She nodded at me, her eyes gentle as she smiled.

"Go. I'll let you know how I'm doing, Katherine."

Bowing slightly to Jahi, mother leaned into the Marquess, smiling as she watched us enter the carriage.

Looking out the window, I waved goodbye to our parents, Jahi looming behind me as she waved as well.

We watched as the estate slowly disappeared from sight, smiling at one another.

"A younger sibling huh..."

I nodded at Jahi, chuckling as I said "And they're a half-sibling for both of us."

She chuckled as well, before saying "Well, guess we just need to give them double the love, hmm?"

Seeing me nod, Jahi pulled me into her lap, whispering "Seeing that made me think about the day you tell me news like that..."

Laughing, I caressed her cheek, saying "I feel the same..."

Grinning at me, Jahi said "Well, should we... practice?"

Not waiting for an answer, I yelped as she undressed me, intent on 'practicing'.
