My own 2

Looking at the food provided I first cleaned my hand with the bowl provided and then presented my hands to be dried with a crispy white cloth.

After, because I was getting hungry I pointed at the porridge and then began eating once it was placed while the old madam continued to admire herself.

"Little Ra, will this be permanent."

"En grandmother, your body will no longer age but your lifespan has only extended with this for another twenty years. You will need to rank up to help extend your life. For now, I am still young and quite weak, so I can not make too many things that would assist you with extending your lifespan. Perhaps once I mature I can freeze you into immortality but there is no solid proof now."

"That is ok little Ra, having an extra twenty years is even better and a body that will not age."

"Ok grandmother,"

I replied, reaching over to pick up a well-seasoned piece of meat feeling quite famished and once again tired.

I ate until I was full then cleaned my hands once again before sipping the cold tea.

A little while later the old madam spoke once again, this time her tone seemed heavy.

"Little Ra I must say before anything else. I have decided that you will stay within your courtyard for the next two years. There you will learn everything you can within those two years. The world is a dangerous place and as you know, the Kai family is a family that has fallen.

Many would do anything to keep us that way, that is why."

She paused, her features becoming serious, I felt sad but it can be understood. The story of the Kai clan was a heavy one. 

Even while browsing on the wristband it… sigh. It seems that I have joined a complicated family, no wonder the sibling of this body had said those things before I had died. 

"From today, for the next two years, you will be eating alone. The servants to look after you will be staying with you as well."

Eating I nodded, once the meal was over I sat with the old madam with her hugging and speaking giving many gifts before we said our temporary goodbyes and separated. 

My heart ached, it was a feeling similar to when I realised my sisters would no longer visit me within our watery depths and I was now alone. 

This feeling I did not like but I had to accept it. 

Pursing my lips I allowed the servant girl to lift me and lead me from the main courtyard through the circular arch towards my own courtyard.

Sigh, well at least I can fully focus during those two years with ease.

The time here was also long and the body thought humans would also age slowly.

So in the end I can conclude when compared to Gai I had a little more time.

"Young miss, this vehicle is what will be used around the property." The vehicle was open, it looked comfortable and well built. "This vehicle was designed by the young master and sent over, the older versions were quite cheap and tended to be mostly unreliable, but the young master had sent over four alone to your courtyard and three to the old madam's. Young miss this one is special; it can only be used once it receives your command. The vehicle can be a convertible or fully covered when necessary." I nodded at the servant yawning once more as we entered and sat in the extremely comfortable seats. Mines seemed to be located in the rear and specially made for both safety and comfort.

We were all inside an open hover vehicle. The view on the way was excellent as well. 

Many trees and flowers could be seen. The path was clear and well laid, this seems much better than the previous home.

I could not help but to fall in love with it, especially when I felt the coolness against my skin and the wetness in the air.

"Young miss, these trees were recently planted. With them the area becomes cool. 

So you will not overheat and become exhausted." 

I did not reply, looking around at the towering trees and feeling the wonderful chilliness in the air. 

Large gates came into view; they were simply made from a strong natural material from what looked like from carved wood. Standing guard were two well-carved stone beasts. 

"Young miss, as the master you can use your wristband to open the gate, simply open the transparent screen and then..." 

Doing just that I watched the gates open sliding back into the wall. 

Entering the property by foot, I felt amazed. 

It was truly beautiful even for someone like me. 

" Young miss, do you like it so far? This is the outer area; to the left is the building where all guests will be waiting for your arrival and the left guard post. It is able to hold twenty people with ease. The right side is a small garden where they can walk around while waiting and further down is the  right guard post."

We walked a while greeting the guards who bowed respectfully. Another gate and wall came into view but this was filled with drawings carved into the stone itself and the gate looked much more magnificent also guarded by two guards this time armed in silver grey and white uniforms and long speared weapons.

I felt quite curious as to why they stood garbed in such heavy armour but thought that I will be told later so it's ok.

"Greetings to the young master,"

The two spoke suddenly, two of the servants following jumped while I simply nodded, inwardly grateful for the lessons learned so far from the old madam's personal servants.

"Greetings, continue,"

The massive gates were opened then, this time the wonderful surprise was shown directly on my face, before my thigh and had asked about my thoughts pertaining to my own courtyard, at that time I had only said a few words but they had taken everything to heart and had this built.
