The First Meeting
A hovering limousine travels through the lushing and vibrant trees. The road is developed and covered with asphalt Even though it's kind of useless before the hovering limo. But doesn't really it's entirely useless, the road can also be used as location to prevent people get lost.
The road is filled with silence, there are no cars can be seen.
The travel was smooth and I can also see a structure on sight. I'm using the Smart TV to use the front camera of the limo. I can even zoom it like a telescope. What I see is a big structure, nah more like a Big strong looking gate. The wall is 30 meters tall and stretched from as far as eyes could see. Damn, What the hell. This too secured. Also, This road only leads to this big strong looking gate?
I shook my head but nevertheless my heart is beating like crazy, Chikushodo family is truly big. Now that I think of it, the other cars disappeared after the limo entered this road. I sighed, tried my best to ignore the mysteriousness of the chikushodo family. The limo stopped in front of the big gate, I could see a camera at the top of a pole at the side of the gate with a red light then suddenly it turned green. The ground shook, but I didn't notice it because the limo was hovering. The big wide gate opened slidely. Revealing another long road ahead. I think it will take time to arrive.
About half an hour of traveling at the top of mountains between Mt. Mitake and Mt. Odake where one can see a big japanese castle and a houses near the castle. The houses are both Modern and Old design. There is also a big red Torii on the entrance. This place is like a small village with a big castle. Is this where the Chikushodo family resides?
When the limo entered the torii, One could see a tiled path leading straight to the castle, On the side are the houses both modern and Old designs. the castle had long stairs in front leading to the castle doors. In front of the stairs is a large square. When the limo entered this village looking area, The doors of the houses opened, Children, Girls and women walked out from their perspective homes, They all looked at the limo with expectant and excited look.
I, who was inside the Limo was puzzled by there expectant look written on their faces. It made feel weird, This place is also weird. There are too many questions in my mind.
The limo continued moving to the Large square below the castle. The limo stopped sideways in front of the stairs, The lady driver walked out, She is the same lady guard who guide me earlier. She opened the door and gesture me with her hand to come out.
"Young master please"
"Thanks" I nodded, I appreciate her behaviour, Why? She is too calm before a man and it made me feel relief. I'm always bothered by the women looking at me like a prey.
I got out, I stared the long flight of stairs leading to the castle top. Before I know it, a girl rushed to my side and literally flew like a bullet. She shouted.
"ONII-CHAAAAN~"
I got startled and reflexively caught her in my embrace, She tighted her hug around my neck.
"Shido-nii I'm glad you woke up" The the girl in my arms started weeping, I don't who this girl is but I could only pat her head in comfort.
A woman came, She looked like the girl but more mature just like Sona and Shina. I don't know these two, but deep inside me I feel closeness between the women who gathered around me. I notice that everyone is beautiful. There isn't a single plain looking girl in here. If it was in the past, This would be the paradise of men.
I didn't utter a single word because I was slack-jacked by the different types of beauties around me, There are cute ones, Elegant ones, Pure ones, Cold ones, Exotic ones, Gorgeous ones, Sweet looking ones and other different characteristics. Why did I knew it? It's my instinct kicking in.
The young girl on my arms, I guess she is the same age as Shina, She have short bronze colored hair. I couldn't see her entire appearance but I can say she is not different from the woman in my side. The woman also had short bronze colored hair but hers is much straight and not curly unlike the girl. She got Brown eyes that filled with affections and Fondness inside it. Her figure is absolutely stunning, She wears a caramel colored loose sweater and a long black tight pants. because of how loose the sweater is her large assets can be seen before my eyes.
When the woman notice my eyes looking at her cleavage, She proactively bent down a little, She's teasing me. She gave me teasing smile. When I notice I got caught, I wryly smiled at her. She let out a chuckle.
"Ne~ little shido-kun, Long time no see" The woman said. She continued "Do you miss Reina Onee-chan?"
Before I could speak the Girl in my arms looked at the woman and said.
"MOM! what are you saying. Shido onii-chan is my cousin, You are his aunt not sister?" She questioned her mom.
The woman let out a small laugh and said "Rika, Shido-kun lost his memories you know, Mama cannot help but wanted to tease him a little"
"Eh! Eeeeeh!? Onii-chan lost his memories...That means he can't remember me?" The young girl panicked and she looked at me with worried eyes. She let go of me ans looked down and mumbled "What should I do. That also means he forgot our promise"
I watched them and notice the young girl started crying. I looked at the woman.
"Hello Aunt, Nice to meet you too. Although I cannot remember everything in the past, But deep inside in my heart I feel like I know all of you."
I raised my hand and put it on top of young girl's head and caressing her hair "As for you little sis, Although I cannot remember our promise it doesn't mean you couldn't tell me what is it, You can tell me if you want I'm all ears."
She looked up and look at my eyes, Her teary eyes making her cute face adorable. "Really? T-Then I will tell Shido Onii-chan next time"
"Un, I will wait" I gave her a smile.
"Hehehe" Then she leaps into my arms again.
"Ara Ara, Rika you sneaky" Another beautiful woman commented making all the women who gathered laughed.
I spent my time talking to the people who gathered in the square, I found out that not all of them are my blood related families, cause some of them are wives of my previous uncles. I exchange pleasantries with them talking about how mischievous I am in the past. The young girls are 10-14 years old, I played with them a little on the playground and tell them stories.
As for why I'm still outside, Aunt Reina, who is my blood related aunt said to wait for the meeting in the castle to finish, It seems there are strict rules in this family. As expected from the family who can dominate the whole japan. They live in different ways. I could only comply and wait, but it also made my nervousness calm dowm greatly.
Because the moment I saw that majestic castle, I'm became restless and nervous. Who wouldn't, That's a castle you know? It's my first time seeing an active castle. Unlike the castles I visited from the past they are museum, Unlike these castle, A castle of the great Chikushodo family. Even If I reincarnated into this Chikushodo boy's body, my mentality is still the same as my past. I feared the strong, It still on my mind how strong this family are because I encountered and made mistake in my life.....Nah let's not talk about that. it's all in the past.
I wondered where the elders are?
