Reincarnated as a Son of the Sword Saint and the Sage-Chapter 54 54: Departure

?"Come here, Mary." 𝘧𝗿ee𝚠𝙚𝙗𝑛o𝚟𝐞l.𝐜૦𝗺

"As you will, Milord."

Mary in her elegant maid uniform kneel before me. The gravity slowly pulling her golden mid-cut locks from her shoulder to fall as she bobbed her head. Mary is now ready for the bestowal of the Longevity skill.

I laid back the naked silvery blade on her right shoulder. Like that of a monarch granting a knighthood. Inwardly, I started to activate my Unique Skill: Bestow.

"For your long and fruitful service in our family, you deserve an honorary reward. I, Raphael Raevender, will personally grant you your gift. Bestow, Longevity."

Upon giving her the skill, her body glowed a pale golden light. It only lasts for a second but the accolading has successfully awarded. And for the finishing touch…

"Bestow, Disguise. Using that skill, you would able to hide the skill from the others."

It would be bad if someone discovered Mary having Longevity skill despite being a double digits Level. Better safe than sorry.

"Thank you very much, Milord. I cannot thank you enough for all the things that you have done to me."

"Then work harder for the family, now and eternity."

"My guilt can let the Young Lady to fulfill what she owed by herself alone. I also wanted to pay for the things you have done to me myself. I already had discussed it with the Lady beforehand." Still a knee on the floor, she raised her head and clenched her fist on top of her chest.

(Something's wrong. I can feel it.)

Sensing the strangeness circulating around Mary, I turned my head facing my sister and tried to asked her about it.

"What is she talking about, Sister?"

"…just one night…" she whispered.

"Hmm?" I baffled.

"Last night, Mary told me she can't tolerate herself of me paying you alone. That's why she made a decision that we argued for hours…"

Yeah, Sister and Mary slept on the same bed last night so they can have a conversation all night.

"…In the end, I ultimately gave up for her unwavered persistence."

"…"

"In agreement, we decided for you to…"

"To what…?"

"To have Mary for just one night!"

"What?"

Did I hear it correctly, right? Did my ears defective or something? Lemme check the recordings… Ahh! What are my sister saying?! When she said night, it means doing that thing, right?!

"Are you serious about that?"

"I don't want to admit it but I'm dead serious."

Just for sure, I faced and asked Mary.

"Are you really sure about it."

"I already resolved myself to do it."

"You can't just force yourself to do something you don't like, you know?"

? "Pardon my rudeness, but I didn't said I dislike it. If it's you, Milord, I don't mind having a night with you." 𝒇𝑟𝐞𝐞w𝐞𝑏𝙣𝑜vℯl.co𝑚

She said with crimson on her cheeks. Sister just averting her eyes, restraining herself to cool off. Getting cucked must have hit her to the bone.

So Mary wanted to offer herself to me to fulfill her part, huh. Although I have a beautiful fiancée now, I never get laid and still a pathetic virgin in both worlds! Sophia is still too young for that kind of thing. She must have to be ripen for at least a year for me to harvest her bountiful fruit.

"I love your temping offer but I have to say no for now. I didn't have experience yet and want my first night to be with the person I love."

"…"

That's it. I wanted to give my first to one of my partners in life. So I cannot just give it nonchalantly. But…

"But I never said I don't want it. I just said I don't want to do it now. Perhaps someday? For now, enjoy your life with my sister, okay? I will have you attend me when the time comes. Is that fine with you two?"

"…Hmph. I'm fine with it."

"Milord…" then she stood straight putting a hand on her chest. "I understand. I promise I will serve the Young Lady with all my life." Mary announced her servitude as she bowed her upper body to me.

With the things settled in, we walked out of the workshop and continued our daily lives. By the way, Sister and Mary sleep together later that night.

◆◇◆◇◆◇

Three days had passed since that day. The winter snow completely melted and the earth slowly coming back to life. These days are the time when some establishments and institutions continue to operate after the cold season. One of them is the Dixon Imperial Academy.

"Be careful when you're there, okay? Also, don't forget continuing your training before delving the dungeon, okay?"

"That's what you told me yesterday, Mom."

"I leave Louise in your care, Mylene."

"Leave it to me."

Gaudy carriages with our family crest loaded with heavy luggage parked in front of our mansion gate, as if preparing for a long journey. Female servants lined up as Mom and Sister bid farewell to each other in the middle of the morning spring. The time of Sister's departure has come.

"I will miss you, Louise."

"I will miss you too, Mom."

Then the two black-haired beauty start embracing each other. After that, Sister turned her attention to me, who's standing between Mom and Sophia.

"You better not cause any problems for Mom, okay? Take care of Mom and Sophia while we're gone."

"I promise. I will take care of them in your stead."

"Good boy." She praised me, petting my head. "You grew up fast this year. You are already taller than me."

"Thanks for the praises."

Sister let go of her hand from my head. She turned right and approached Sophia. Sister put her hands on Sophia's shoulders and started a conversation with her.

"I will miss you, Sophia. Take care of my brother for me."

"I will miss you, too. You can leave Raphael to me."

"Thank you." Then she turned her back around and walked besides Mother.

"Let's go, Mother."

Mother nodded in response before she entered the carriage. Sister fixed her gaze at one of the lining servants briefly before shutting the door our their transport.

(The moment the master take off its sight from its subject, the subject gained a little bit of freedom.)
