And not that all of them had arrived in one of the Caves of the Moon Rock Forest, they would be finally able to start their Family Outing. To further make sure that no one would trespass that would ruin their trip, Yuki had ordered everyone who was under her to be hidden away in all parts of the Moon Rock Forest to guard them, not that it was needed but because she simply doesn't want anyone to make trouble while they are here. And to say that Yuki went all out in guarding the entire Moon Rock Forest is an understatement as she ordered all of her elites of each Guild which ranged in more than 10,000 and all of them are in the ranks of Spirit Beast. They are the most powerful in each Sect and each of them could possibly stand against the relentless attacks of the three Warriors of the Beast Race, but defeating them is still a different matter of course as those three were the true definition of a Genuise among Genuises.
Because all of them had such a position in each Guild, they are hard to come by. And if you want to use them as a commission, the request would not go to the Sect Master, but to Yuki herself since she decides if she should deploy any of them. As for how she looks at each request, she doesn't go by the difficulty nor the money that they would get, but instead, she looks at how interesting it was. There was even one case where Yuki rejected the request of the Imperial Family which came from Lian herself, she requested for the Assasin Guild to kill someone from one of the evil Duke of the Beast Race, for her reason for not accepting the request simply because she thought that it was too boring if Lian had requested for the Death of that Duke's entire family maybe she would have accepted it, but because it wasn't she simply rejected it and gave her a reason that they were too busy with other things and can't accompany the Imperial Princess's request, of course, Lian doesn't the real reason why she was rejected to this day.
"Now… I don't want us t eat food in such a place, so let's go to the River that I was talking about. It has good scenery for us and it is a safe place for us to have our picnic." Yuki said as all of them leaves the Cave and began to walk to the beautiful River that she hasn't been to for almost a year now. And not a single one of them was in a rush to go to the River since this is also a perfect time for them to relax and have some peace while walking at normal speed for humans.
"Mother, can I ask you something while we walk? I know that there are still good 30 minutes before we arrive, so can we chat for a while?" Yumie walked to the side of Yuki and because of their height difference, she surpassed her in terms of height but even so, her demeanor towards her never change even for a moment. She was still that little girl that Yuki found in the Moon Rock Forest who was being chased out by the Lizard Tribe.
"Hmmm? Sure thing, what is it that you like to ask me?" Yuki only smiled as she didn't stop walking but instead turned towards Yumie and let her ask questions that she was meaning to ask.
"Mother, can I ask what you really like? I know that I'm not the only one who noticed this, but I'm sure it's everyone around you. Because even from the words of big sister Fumiko about who you are in your past Life, we can know that you really are a cold person and aloof person and there is no denying that. But even with all of that, I think there is something hidden behind that, you are like muddy water, no matter how hard we try to see through it it's useless because it's hidden away all of that mud and dirt, and that mud and dirt are like your heart mother. You don't open your heart to anyone, not even to us, you keep it closed to anyone, not wanting anyone to come inside because of the mud and dirt that you have covered. You only opened a little pathway for us that we still need to clean up to make it inside of your heart fully." Yumie took a deep breath as she asked her question which made everyone's footsteps take stop and it was simply because all of them completely agrees with Yumie's words, Yuki's heart is closed even to her dear Mother whom she showed deep love and respect.
Everyone was tense as they looked at Yuki who already stopped her movements after hearing one sentence from Yumie. She already knows that out of the three, she is the most intelligent and all of it was learned because of her, her teaching caused her to become like this, but it was not like it was a bad thing. So she simply chuckled as she turned her head towards them and saw an expression that they had never seen by her, not even Fumiko, Ayame, and Serene saw Yuki make this kind of expression.
"Since all of you really want to know, then I'll tell you. Yumie, lead all of them to the River, I'll meet you there. I will set up the picnic first." Yuki's smile which should have shown anger, or coldness didn't even show either of the two, but instead, it showed a pained expression.
"Wha… Did she really just make such an expression?" Anna was the first one to say something, but her tone was shivering out of shock and sadness at the same time. But it wasn't just her who felt it, it was everyone. They knew Yuki more than anyone else, she was a proud and arrogant woman who will kill everyone without any remorse and it doesn't matter to her who they are even if they are God, they will die if they mess with her. But the aloof and cold Yuki could actually make such an expression? No one even thought that it was possible considering how she was.
"Anyone… does any one of you have ever seen her making such a face?" Ayame's voice quivered as tears were threatening to come out of her eyes.
"I… I'm afraid not. Even I haven't seen her make a face like that. What did she experience before I met her? When I met her she was already 21 when I met her…" Fumiko said with uncertainty, but her tone was also covered with fear and sadness. She can't bear to imagine what kind of hardships she had to take even before that.
"Where are Cindy and Diana? I'm sure that they would know the answer to our question!" Ayame was slowly getting desperate to try and know what kind of life she had. But before she can even look at her surroundings, her shoulders were held by Serene.
"It's useless to ask those two, I'm sure that Yuki met them in her 20s and even if they know the answer, they would never tell us even if they know who we are. Those two are the only ones who are trained by Yuki personally, they are made to be cunning, intelligent, powerful, and most of all a Monster who doesn't betray their Master. Those two are Monsters created by Yuki." Serene said as she gazed at the blue sky with deep thoughts. She now knows that this is their karma for neglecting Yuki as a child because they truly don't know anything about her since her childhood.
"It's better to go straight to her and ask her." Serene sighed as she regrets everything now.
