15 A Day before Festival

-Pov is back to 3rd person/narrator

It has been 59 days since Ryu reincarnated, He has come to enjoy his everyday life in a mansion with doting parents and is thinking 'I hope, these kinds of days keep going forever and ever'. He just woke up from an afternoon nap he started taking as a way to avoid going to the training ground with Ralph 'I never expected him to give up this easily.'.

He did not know Ralph has not given up but instead, Ralph just finds him petting Aiena when they both are asleep excessively cute. Now Ryu sat up on the bed and start petting Aiena a bit harder to make her wake up as he usually does and Aiena half-awake said "ehehe…...pat..me...more"

'She is really a gone case' Ryu think before she finally wakes and spoke

"Good morning, young master did you have a nice dream," Aiena said as she got down from the bed then she wore her shoes, fixed her uniform, and smiled

'Man she is too cute, now I know why Mom wants to spoil her this much' Thinks Ryu before gesturing her to pick him up 'Young master is so smart, are all babies this smart?? was I this smart??' Aiena wondered while picking Ryu up.

Then as usual Ryu started to guide her using his finger, while he noticed the whole mansion was decorated with silver curtains and star-shaped decorations, and there was this festive air in the house 'is star festival something like Christmas of this world' he wondered cause the only time these much decorations were seen back in his world was on Christmas.

While he was wondering that a voice come from behind "Aiena take Young master to garden, Lord and lady are there right now" Lana said

"Yes-yes Aiena grown-ups are decorating the mansion here kids go out," Hina said while Ryu was thinking no one would fall for such bland provoking Aiena shouted

"I want to help with decorations too, Lana big sis" with enthusiasm in her voice she continued

"You told me last year, that this year I could decorate too" seeing her as this Hina smiled and Lana put her hand on her forehead and after a pause, she said

"Okay you can help Aiena, but first take young master to garden" Hearing her say this Aiena with shining eyes with a wide smile said

"Yes, Lana big sis, I will hurry back" and Aiena started running carrying Ryu, which made him think

'I really spoiled them a lot, you should never run carrying a toddler' He frowned as they started going down the stairs, and when they were on the lower floor Ryu was put inside his kart which was beside the staircase,

'Man, I never thought about being in a kart being pushed by a human' He thinks while looking up at Aiena who was slowly pushing the kart, 'While I guess it is a toddler privilege' and while being stared at by Ryu, Aiena thought

'Young master is staring so intently…. does he want to be carried in arms…Young master spoiled'

Thinking this she giggled and they finally reached the garden, Lina and Ralph were sitting at the garden table while having tea "Dear, remember our first Brightest star festival" Lina said

"Ahh, I think the baby is most probably the Gift of the festival," Ralph said with a grin while putting a hand on Lina's lap

"Isn't it lucky, that baby is getting named the same day as he was Gifted?" Lina said leaning towards Ralph. Ralph leaned further towards Lina and spoke

"don't you think the baby should have a little sister, both Aiena and baby would be happy" as soon as he said this he was pushed away by Lina. She pushed him hard seeing that Aiena was standing at the garden corner with baby in kart while having her small hands over her eyes.

"Good afternoon, Lord Viscount... Viscountess mam" Aiena said while stuttering and Ryu thought while frowning

'The rate at which you guys' flirt, I think I have a sibling as soon as I turn 1 year old'

""Aiena Good afternoon"" Both of them said in sync without matching their eyes with Aiena and after moments of awkward silence Lina spoke breaking the silence

"Aiena did you see the dresses I ordered for you"

"Yes, Viscountess mam they are pretty," Aiena said while she continued to push the kart toward the Garden table. Lina then happily said

"Yes, they would look super cute on you tomorrow" she is mentioning the festival inside the church it will be the first time Aiena will go to Church since the incident related to her parents but she spoke confidently

"Yes, Viscountess mam I will try my best tomorrow" hearing this Ralph pets her and said proudly

"Do not be too worried Aiena, you are just as valuable as baby to us if danger were to come, I will protect both of you," then he stands up and said to Lina

"Lina, can you come to the room after an hour, I got something to discuss with you importantly" he smirked and go towards the mansion being stared at by Ryu from behind

'I know very well what kind of discussion you both will be having; I've decided when I become able to talk the first thing, I will ask for will be a separate bedroom' He thinks this while seeing Ralph leave. Although he knew Ralph would not like this idea because he dotes on him too much at night.

After this, he and Aiena began playing in the garden with Aiena making him go through rides and swing safely, while he was enjoying this all Ryu think something was amiss after thinking a lot he remembered

'She had to go back to the mansion to decorate, how stupid it she!!?' then he tried his back pointing towards Aiena and trying to make her realize it but all she understands was

"Ehehe...he…he Young master want to be spoiled more," she said as she picks him up and start petting him 'This doesn't feel bad but this stupid girl will be sad if she is a bit later, what to do'

While he was thinking like that Lina stands up and spoke

"Aiena, let's go back to the mansion and see how are the decorations looking" hearing this Aiena remember about decorating and rushed back in hurrying up with Lina. fortunately, Lana had saved some decorations for her to place but Hina was teasing her telling her how she is the one who Hanged the biggest star.

After seeing Aiena happily Decorating and Ryu also placing a star on a wall Lina excused herself to the room, after asking Helena to play with us and asked each maid what they want for the Brightest Star festival. Each maid named something they want because they knew Lina won't take no for an answer

'It really is like Christmas, Present and all' Ryu think as he was in Lana's arm all the maids Discussing how three mages will come in the evening to decorate the mansion more with magic.

And in the evening three mages Yuna, Cable, and snow arrived and were welcomed by everyone in the mansion at the gate because everyone wants to see the mansion get more beautiful. But the calm atmosphere was broken because snow rushed toward Lina carrying Ryu and spoke

"Baby can I carry??" she was more affectionate than usual because of not been able to see Ryu for many days now and she don't have many words to say. After Lina handed him over and other too mages come near to snow and speak

"Dude young master did you not miss us, always sleeping my motivation was halved," said Yuna while pulling Ryu's cheeks and cable said "Young master, I learned a new magic you will like for sure"

At this Ryu think 'I should go to training once in a while,'.

After that Snow carrying Ryu and other mages cast multiple Light ball spells which go from a shade of silver to flame red to sky blue hundred of light balls filled the mansion's front yard and surrounds the mansion it was a really beautiful scene that make everyone awed with lights.

But what was more awe-inspiring was the light ball near Ryu shined three times more than other light balls everyone has the same thought 'He sure is loved by light' and don't know what she was thinking but snow raised Ryu up towards the sky at this Ryu think

'Am I Simba from disn** movie' and everyone was clapping seeing Ryu surrounded by bright lights and This make Ryu think

'Well as long as they are happy, I hope these kinds of days Keep going forever and ever'

And all of them then go Inside Mansion at days Which are like festivals maids too eat dinner with Ralph and Lina because they insist Festivals are to be enjoyed with the whole family all of them have a Warm Dinner full with happiness and Delight.

No one knew there was someone else who noticed the lights in their Mansion and how Ryu makes them shine more brightly, just by being there with Interest.
