Chapter 521 On The Way
Ayia, Shizuka, and Kaori didn't even have time to carefully examine the book before they were dragged by the other girls to buy something with them.
Theo followed them with a thoughtful expression.
He was somewhat surprised by their reaction to this book, their interest seemed more complicated than simple interest in history.
But he chose to brush it off as he knew that Ayia would tell him if it was important.
Although they had been dating for only a few days, Theo felt like they knew each for years already. That was because they complemented each other so well.
They formed the perfect couple not only because they were devastatingly beautiful. But also because their personalities complemented each other.
Otherwise, no relationship would last based only on looks.
Theo and Ayia's relationship was much more than that.
Just like that, Theo and the others visited every stall in the market and took even more pictures.
But everything had its end.
When noticed that they needed to leave otherwise their plans for the rest of the day would be missed, they immediately headed to where they left their vehicle.
But as they exited the Ancestral Town Neighborhood, they still took some pictures of the ancient buildings.
A while later, the driver that worked for Ayia and Shizuka drove the minibus toward their next destination.
"A pity we weren't able to go into one of those tea houses." Sayuri commented as the bus drove through the streets of Sakura City.
"Yeah, I agree." Sam nodded, "But we had to leave otherwise we would mess with our schedule."
"The next time I visit Sakura City, I'll go there!" June exclaimed with determination.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe loved tea, so the idea of drinking tea where ancient people also drank tea was thrilling.
"For me, the best part still was the shrine." Kumiko commented.
"Yes! The shrine transmitted such a unique feeling." Lauren said with a thoughtful expression.
"I think it was the connection with the beyond." Shoko commented.
"Maybe it was. After all that shrine is one of most ancient shrines in the country." Theo added.
"But I still prefer..."
"..."
They continued discussing their visit to the shrine with smiles while three of them had a quiet conversation.
Ayia, Shizuka, and Kaori took seats next to each other as soon as they entered the bus.
They wanted to examine the book before they arrived at their next stop. It was the perfect time to do it as everyone else was busy discussing their recent trip to the shrine and market.
"Come on, Ayia!" Kaori said in a soft voice, "You should start examining."
Among the three of them, Ayia was the one who had the most knowledge about ancient Yamatese, so she was the most suitable person to analyze the text for them.
"Okay, let me see it!" Ayia replied with a resolute voice as she went back to the page where she stopped before.
Kaori and Shizuka observed as their sister analyzed the book with serious expression.
They didn't even dare to breathe too loudly next to her as they were afraid to disturb Ayia.
They grew up hearing stories about how their mother discovered amazing treasures and information, and they always wanted to be like their mother.
For the three of them, their mother was their idol.
So, with this book came the opportunity of contributing to the family just like their mother did.
If they could present this information to their mother, they could make her proud of them.
Every child wanted to make their parents proud of them, and the three of them were no different.
Analyzing ancient languages took time, so it was only after a few minutes that Ayia was able to decipher some things, and when she did her eyes lit up.
"This book indeed contains information about the side families!" She exclaimed in a low voice so the others wouldn't be able to hear them.
But as Shizuka and Kaori were right next to her, they were able to hear what she said, and they couldn't be more excited when they heard that.
"How do you know?" Kaori asked.
"Because from what I was able to understand, I saw the registries of the Sayako Family!" Ayia readily replied.
Kaori and Shizuka opened their eyes wide when they heard that.
"Sayako?"
"No way!"
Ayia only smiled as she added, "Yes, the Sayako Family. The family that was eliminated decades ago!"
Kaori narrowed her eyes as she thought it over, "This means that this registry is even more valuable than we imagined. Although the chances are infinitesimally low, there are chances of finding some remnant relatives of the Sayako Family if the elders investigate the people on this registry." She analyzed the situation.
"Yeah, but I wouldn't count on it. It is almost impossible for them to find someone." Shizuka shook her head.
"Yeah, but even if there is a chance I believe the elders will not pass on it. They still resent not being able to save anyone from the Sayako Family." Kaori also shook her head wryly.
Each clan had three side families.
The Pendragon Clan governed over the Lionheart Family, Ambrosious Family, and Walton Family.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAnd the Yamato Clan governed over the Yamada Family, Yasuko Family, and Sayako Family.
The Walton family had betrayed the Pendragon Family after the treaty was signed between the two clans, the Walton Family was forced to flee from the country and that was how they arrived at the place where they would found the Bald Eagle Country.
After the main descendants of the two clans disappeared, the 5 side families were forced to step up to assume the governing of the new country.
After centuries of working together, the five families formed deep bonds that were beyond simple partnership.
They cared for each other.
That's why the families acted so violently when the Walton Family massacred the Sayako Family.
They wanted a bath in their enemies' blood to satisfy their hunger for revenge.
That's why no Walton Family member was spared, the four families were massacred until the last infant and servant.
Only this way they could repent to their fallen friends.
But even after the perpetrator was completely eliminated until the last descendant, their guilt for not being able to save at least one of the descendants of the Sayako Family was still there.
But everyone was killed on that night, so they could only live in regret and guilt.
Kaori knew that because she participated in the last Elders' Meeting.
As the next head of the Yamada Family, she had the right to participate.
The Elders' Meeting was where all the elders from the four families gathered to discuss important matters.
As she remembered those old men and women, she let out a small smile.
She knew that they would become energetic once again when they saw this book.
In such a way, the three sisters discussed what to do with the book as the bus drove them to their next destination.
Where were they going?
