Ancient Yamada Manor, Sakura City.
This ancient manor could be dated from the Sakura Abode Country's foundation when the Pendragon and Yamato clans sealed the deal to unite the land.
When the two clans sighed the treaty, the Yamada clan was only a side clan of the main Yamato clan, but they still had enough prestige to build a manor in the new nation's capital.
After centuries since that historical event, the main Yamato clan got lost in the pages of history, but the side branch of the clan prospered.
It was possible to see that the manor was carefully taken care of to preserve its history, but it was still possible to see that modernity crawled over into the mansion.
The manor had the latest technologies in the market, but at the same time preserved its ancientness.
When someone entered the place, it was possible to feel and see how ancient the place was.
It seemed like a typically quiet and ancient manor, but if someone paid enough attention they would notice that the manor and its surroundings were under extreme surveillance.
After the extermination of the Sayako Family 60 years ago, the Yamada family did not measure expenses to protect itself.
The current Yamada Family had HD surveillance cameras covering the whole mansion and its surroundings, it was impossible to get in without being seen.
Plus, the Yamada Family had a satellite image patrolling the skies of the mansion 24/7.
The family was so rich that reserved a satellite just to protect their headquarters.
The property had its own army of guards that took care of all security. And obviously, these guards were all groomed by the family.
There were even more security measures, but that would take even more chapters to describe.
All in all, the Yamada Family Ancient Manor was a fortress with the purpose to protect its main members.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was in this same ancient manor that Ayia and Shizuka arrived after being driven to it by Alfred in a golf cart.
"Let's go!" Ayia exclaimed as she took off her shoes and put on some slippers.
Shizuka did the same thing before following Ayia into the manor.
Just like any traditional Yamato place, it was the costume to not use shoes when walking inside the place, they had to use slippers or be barefoot.
"Where are them, Alfred?" Ayia asked.
"They are currently having lunch, Ayia-sama." Alfred replied.
"So late?" She asked as she looked at the clock that marked 1 pm.
"There were so unforeseen events which delayed lunch, Ayia-sama." Alfred replied as he guided them to the place where the others were.
Ayia and Shizuka found it weird that they delayed lunch, as the New Year's Eve lunch usually happened at 12 pm without any delays.
"Did something happen?" Shizuka asked.
"Emio-sama went into labor this morning, and everyone was too preoccupied with it." Alfred replied with a happy voice.
"Oh my god! Really?" Ayia shouted in excitement.
Shizuka also jumped joyfully when she heard that.
Yamada Emio was their aunt. Their father's little sister. As she was the youngest child of their grandpa, Emio was loved and spoiled all her life. Everyone loved her.
She grew up to become a stunning woman that still was loved by everyone in the family. That's why she appeared with a man that she liked, no one approved of him as they thought no one was good enough for her. But she was extremely stubborn, and she won in the end.
And it turned out that the husband she chose proved to be good enough in the end. But Emio was still treated like a little princess.
Emio was only in her late 30s, which made Ayia and Shizuka idolize their cool aunt when they were kids.
Emio used to be their martial arts teacher when they were kids, and the two of them thought that Emio was so cool when she took down guys twice her size.
They wanted to grow up to become just like her.
Even after they grew up, the two of them still idolized their aunt.
That's why they became so happy to know that their aunt gave birth to her first child.
They knew that she was pregnant, but they didn't imagine that she would give birth that morning.
"Where is she and the baby?" Ayia asked as she jumped around in excitement.
"They are in the medical quarters of the mansion being taken care of by Doctor Marge." Alfred replied.
The manor had its own medical quarters with an entire medical team of doctors and nurses ready to take care of the necessities of the family.
Doctor Marge was one of the best doctors in the country, and she was especially groomed by the Yamada Family.
"Can we go there? I want to see them!" Ayia asked with puppy eyes.
"Master ordered me to bring you two to them as soon as you arrive, miss." Alfred replied as he twitched his lips helplessly.
"Bummer." Ayia softly said.
"Is it a girl or a boy?" Shizuka asked curiously.
"It's a baby girl." Alfred replied.
"YAYY" Ayia commemorated.
She was hoping that it would be a girl.
Ayia showered Alfred with questions as they neared their destination.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe only stopped when they were about to enter the dining room.
As soon as they entered, they noticed several pairs of eyes looking at them.
But Ayia didn't care much as her eyes lit up when she saw a woman with golden hair and golden eyes.
"Mama!" Ayia shouted lovingly as she ran towards her.
The dining room which was filled with family members became silent for a little bit before laughter sounds could be heard from everyone.
They knew that their little princess had a free spirit that did not care much about etiquette, so they always had fun with Ayia's antics.
Hazel accepted the bear hug from her daughter with a loving smile.
Even though her daughters were grown up already, she would always see them as her babies.
"Come in, dear." Hazel said with a loving voice as she also pulled Shizuka into the hug.
Even though Shizuka was adopted, Hazel and the others loved her equally.
If someone said that Shizuka wasn't Hazel's daughter, she would fight that person to death.
Hazel loved Shizuka as much as she loved the two daughters she gave birth to.
Hazel and Ezume had to work for years to make Shizuka stop being so rigid with them.
That's why Shizuka had a happy face when Hazel pulled her into the hug.
"Mom." Shizuka called softly.
"My two pumpkins! I missed you two so much." She whispered to them.
"Hey! What about your old father? Don't I deserve a hug as well?" Ezume's voice was heard teasing the trio.
The three women separated, but not before Hazel replied, "Of course not."
The others couldn't hold their laughter at their bickering.
Just like that, Ayia and Shizuka arrived for the New Year at their house.
