I sat beside the bed with both hands gently combing my hair that had begun to dry. My body has been able to be moved back after resting all day .. Already I guess, my body is still not used to summon Kou and other contract animals simultaneously.
I got up by putting the comb I was holding onto the bed, “it would be very troublesome if I had to keep it that way while calling the contract animal. The only way, just strengthen yourself, Sachi,” muttered me by grabbing the hair ribbon that was on the bed.
I turned around, walked up to the door and opened it. Both of my legs quickly walked out of this place followed by both of my hands moving in hairpins. I took a deep breath as I opened the door, the morning air that filled the surroundings felt instantly piercing as I had walked out.
I stood with a ruffled waist, staring at the ground of grass that was slapping in front. The tip of my foot moved tapping the ground alternately followed by a very deep breath I did. Both of my legs moved quickly, running down the Palace courtyard, “is that Izu nii-chan?” I was slow as I accidentally stared at the back of the man who was also running a little away from me.
I ran faster and faster after the man, “Izu-nii,” I said with a little disconnected as I had run beside him.
“What's the matter, you running in the morning like this time?” He looked up, still running beside me.
“I have to strengthen myself, it will be very troublesome if my body will suddenly be unable to move as before,” I said back to look at him.
“I know everything from Haruki,” he said who has taken his eyes off me, “do not force yourself to unimportant things. It's not just one person who would be sad if something happened to you, do you understand?!” He returned with a glance at me.
“I get it, I'll give it a try,” I said with a look up.
“They still do. As expected of the vice-captains.”
My footsteps came to a halt as I caught Izumi's voice saying so, I turned my head. Both of my legs walked closer to Izumi followed by my two eyes that were still staring at the six vice-captains who were standing upside down.
“What do they do?”I half whispered with a glance towards Izumi who was standing at the side.
“That's one of the ways they meditate, they've been doing that since last night,” Izumi said with a look back at me.
“Ameditation?”
“It helps them to always be focused and calm in the face of any fight. Haruki and I also do it often, when you are sleeping,” Izumi told me again.
“Will I be a little stronger if I do?”
Izumi turned her head towards me before she resumed her footsteps, “kau .. Want to do it? Even times like this, it feels like a miracle for me,” he said as he ran faster and faster leaving me.
“Do you not trust me, nii-chan?” I followed him from behind. “You must not be Sachi. My sister, one of the humans who is most reluctant to move her body to exercise,” he said by increasingly accelerating his footsteps.
My footsteps came back to a standstill, I stared at a man standing far away from us with his head bowed, “Izu-nii, is that Haru nii-chan?” I glanced at him by pointing my index finger at the man earlier.
Izumi turned around and walked over to me, “do you not know if every morning she does it?” I shook my head to answer his question.
“Before sunrise, Haruki always prayed like that. You must know if he wasn't exposed to the sun? So he prayed before morning came, maybe it was like a habit for him,” said Izumi again, he raised his index finger rubbing the tip of his eye.
“Haruki!” Izumi shouted calling out her name followed by her two feet stepping closer.
I walked along following Izumi's footsteps, “what are you doing?” Haruki asked as she had turned to look at us.
“Morning run.”
“Magic isn't it?” Timpal Izumi who answered the nod of Haruki's head.
“Have you guys prepared for the requirements?” Haruki again made a sound by glancing at us in turn.
“Necessities? Are we going?” I asked him back.
“Not now, likely tomorrow. We've been here too long, wasting time won't be good either?”He asked back by looking at me.
“It ... Nii-chan,” I said trying to take my eyes off her.
“Danur, decided to take care of the baby like his own daughter,” Haruki's voice accompanied by a sigh made me lift back my gaze staring at him.
“Is that true?”
Haruki stepped foot past us, “their boys, again ... That's a direct request from his wife Danur,”.
I sighed before following her footsteps, “thankfully,” I said with a slight glance towards her back.
“How are you doing?”
“I've been better, there's nothing to worry about,” said I who also stopped the steps beside her as she stopped the footsteps staring at me.
“Sa-chan,” he said who had stood before me, “I know if you are very curious about the origin of Mother. Very curious about those green eyes, but don't act rashly like that anymore. I'm your brother, it's my duty to look after you. So, don't do anything without my knowledge anymore, do you understand?”
“I understand, nii-chan. Sorry, the carelessness I have been doing all this time,”, I said by raising both hands attached to each other.
Haruki exhaled his breath by again continuing his steps, “Izumi, have you done everything I ordered?”
“I've sent word to Tsutomu. Likely, tomorrow the reply will arrive,” my eyes turned to the side, trying to catch them, trying to,
“Tabors? What news does nii-chan mean?”
“You know, don't you? If Tsubaru and Tatsuya are being assigned by Dad to help Niel deal with a little problem in his place a few months ago?” I nodded my head to answer her question.
“I asked Izumi to order Tsutomu to summarize all the income and expenses of the Palace before Tatsuya returned. Because, if everything was done .. Tatsuya could easily check everything to report to me,” said Haruki by putting his palm behind his neck while moving his neck to the right and left alternately.
“If Dad asks all the vice-captains to come together, it means the two of them will also go home right?”
“They're home,” I turned towards Haruki as he said it, “I ordered Tsubaru to look after you all night outside the room.”
“Eh?”
“What are you? Didn't meet him?” Haruki spoke again followed by my frowning .. Trying to think about what happened.
