Chapter 552 Soulside Town
"Oh, is that so? But if I may ask, what are the benefits of being a Special Guest?" Yuki was now interested after hearing that the guard was willing to give something to them as an apology even though he hadn't done anything too much. But he already offered it and it would be stupid of them if they were going to refuse the apology gift of the guard, so she asked in the name of curiosity what they would get if they accepted the gift.
"Oh, is the little lady now interested? I'm happy to hear that and to answer your question, being a special guest will not only extend the time that you can stay here, but you will also get the benefits of what our citizen here gets, and because there are too many of them. I will just give you a piece of paper that contains all of it, that is if you guys are going to take it." The guard happily answered Yuki's question, he didn't know why but seeing the two cute sisters in front of him made him feel happy and calm inside. It's like the two had a special type of magic that makes people around them calm and it didn't even matter how cold Yuki was acting towards them.
"Is that so… then we would gladly take it since it would make it rude if we don't take it." Yuki smiled in response as she looked at the guard in front of her with her clear and beautiful red eyes that mesmerized the people around her. Because of her actions of tilting her little head, they could now see her face clearly and it was simply breathtaking, her beauty alone could compare to the Royal Family of the Vampire Race which was shocking to them, it even led some people to believe that she was secretly a Noble's Daughter.
"If you are thinking that I'm from a high-ranking family, it's sad to say, but we are not. We're just normal people who are on a travel." Yuki pops their bubble by telling the truth. But even though she clearly said that she wasn't any daughter of a Noble, some of the Vampire still didn't believe her which just made her chuckle in response as she was not going to waste any more time explaining to them how she was not a daughter of a Noble.
"I'm sorry, but it seems like we forgot to introduce ourselves… My name is Yuki… Ayase Yuki." Now that everyone got to know her real name, they had a name to call her other than "little lady". But on the opposite side, Fumiko was shocked to hear that Yuki actually told these strangers her real name. In her whole life, she had only heard Yuki tell someone her real name twice, and this was the second time. She doesn't know the reason why she does this, but whenever she meets new people, she just tells them her name, her surname isn't included.
But she had a guess that it was something private to her and after she got to know her Mother, her guess only got stronger because even though the two were quite close, it seemed that there had been some complications between them. This leads her to believe that Yuki has a grudge towards her, but those were just still her guesses and as for she was right, she doesn't have any clue. Just as she was indulging herself in those thoughts, she was tapped by Yuki who was just staring into her eyes as if she was waiting for her to do something.
"Yes! I'm sorry for the late introduction, but my name is Nanase Fumiko…" Fumiko was somewhat shy when she revealed her name which made the others look at her with curious eyes because the longer they looked at the two, it seemed that their situation was reversed. The little sister seemed more mature than the big sister. But the real reason why she is shy is because she feels a little happy inside, even though they are not married yet, Yuki lets her use her surname which makes her really happy.
"What a beautiful name you two have… My name is Daryl, even though I would like to talk to you guys more, we should stop here before our talk gets longer and longer. We should now go to the Administration Hall so that we can register you two as Special Guests." Daryl said with a smile on his face as he asked the two to follow him. Along their way, many people were looking at them as the three attractive people walking into the town roads were just that eye-catching.
It didn't take long for them to arrive at the Administration Office and when they did, they gathered a lot more attention, but the weird thing for the two was that the Vampires had their head bowed but it wasn't towards them, they bowing their heads for Daryl. This quickly alarmed Yuki and she pulled Fumiko closer to her, she had already been suspicious of her since the first time she met her because how she acted wasn't any like of a guard, she could feel that arrogance and elegance that only a Noble could release. Seeing how people treated him now only made it clear to her.
This is also the reason why she chose to follow him so that she could reap benefits from him, but of course, that doesn't mean that she would lower her guard around him as she was using him as a tool. And when Daryl saw Yuki who was now on guard made him chuckle in response as he raised his hand to stop the people from doing anything more.
"Don't be too defensive little Yuki… I'm not a bad person, but I did lie to you by introducing myself as a guard. But don't worry, I can promise you that I don't have any bad intentions towards you two, in fact, our meeting was pure accident. I saw you two coming close to our town from afar but at first, it didn't matter to me, but I was somehow attracted by the two of you so I couldn't stop myself from coming close to you." Daryl apologized because he lied to the two and quickly dropped the act and revealed who he truly was.
"Allow me to introduce myself again… my name is Daryl, but my full name is Daryl Sencor, and yes if you have heard of it before, I'm the Governor of this humble town of ours. The humble Soulside Town." Daryl finally revealed who he was and when he was expecting the two to suddenly change their attitudes towards him after knowing who he was, he didn't expect Yuki to suddenly chuckle in response. But it didn't offend him, it just made him more curious about the little girl.
"I knew something was up with you… you looked so different from the guards that I'm used to seeing you. Plus… you don't have that aura of a guard on you, the aura that you are giving to people is a sense of pride, safety, and calmness." Yuki said loudly, but deep inside she was smiling devilishly. Knowing that Daryl is actually the governor of this town didn't stop her from trying to extort money from him, since he was a bigger fish, of course, she would not let go of it. On top of that, he can use him in many more ways than just being her source of income, he could be the one to do her dirty deeds if she's going to do it here.
Also having a governor as a backer is great since with that, there would be fewer people who want to mess with you, and since she is planning to stay here for a few weeks or if not even months. It was because she found this place a great place to start, especially with its special landscape and its surroundings. While they were coming here, she noticed that this town was near to an ocean, mountain, and even a forest which would be great for her hunting as well as to train Fumiko as well as herself. So having Daryl to help her with some stuff would be great.
