Chapter 464 - The Night Of Lantern Festival --- Part 4
Everything was happening according to their original plan. Now that they were left with carriage, it was easy for them to travel around. Ayra's discomfort faded away until they arrived at the mansion that Jessie mentioned earlier.
The carriage parked away in front of an old mansion nearby at the land of Richalwolf Land. Most parts of the mansion was surrounding in darkness except one neo light which was passing through the window of second stairs. Jessie spoke earning Ayra's attention on her,
" Here it is. Last time, I heard that they are living in this mansion."
Ayra gave a small nod and hopped out from the carriage to land on the ground. Jessie followed her behind and jumped down from the carriage. They both looked around and found no one around except the guards who protected the entrance.
Jessie gave a tap on her shoulders to proceed forward,
" Let's go! I just hope that they won't trouble us."
They both walked down to stop by the entrance. Those two long beard men glanced up at them from head to toe suspiciously. Since they both were dressed in fancy clothes, the guards were courteous when one of them asked Jessie,
" Who are you two? Haven't seen before here."
Jessie cleared her throat awkwardly. Peeking at the mansion which had their grandfather living, she responded hiding the relationship,
" Is..Is Mr. Quinsey at home?"
The guards shared a meaningful glance because no one came to meet their master in this past few years except one or two sometimes. The guard replied glancing between them suspiciously,
" Yes, he is but tell us first. Who are you two? Where are you coming from?You seem like prominent figures. Your clothes, shoes are all expensive. Are you coming from Basarisk in case?"
The guard made a random guess and observed closely when Ayra and Jessie's expression turned white in nervousness. Jessie opened her mouth to come up with lies when Ayra interrupted replying to them politely,
" We are his family. This is her granddaughter. Can we visit him now? I promise that we will take a few minutes."
As soon as Ayra confirmed their identity,the guards suddenly panicked. Stepping back from the entrance, they became extremely alerted and looked up at them hatefully. When the guard opened his mouth, he was no longer respectful and almost yelled at them,
" Go back to your Kingdom, Princess. No one from Basarisk is allowed to meet the master. He doesn't welcome anyone from them. It's better that you two leave without wasting our time."
Jessie clenched her teeth together. Her anger was boiling but she had to hold it down for Ayra's sake. Ayra stepped closer to the gate and tried to assert the seriousness of their situation,
" We have something very urgent to know from him. It won't take very long time. Please believe that we mean no harm to him. Besides we are family at the end."
The other guard snorted from his side,
" Our Master has no relationship with Basarisk ever since young Miss passed away. Don't try to convince us with fake emotions. Get out of here before we use force."
Jessie stepped forward fuming in rage. Her fists clenched aside when she spoke to them,
" We won't go. What will you do?Come & Confront us. See, what can I do to you."
Ayra panicked as Jessie was getting out of control. Their grandfather was already angered on them. If they made any fuss at the gate, the old man would hate them more. Ayra pulled Jessie away from the door and whispered warning,
" Sister Jessie, we can't be rude with them. Grandpa might hate us more. How about we step aside and wait for a perfect chance to slip inside? I think, it was less the trouble."
Jessie didn't seem like she wanted to stay any longer but she did agree when Ayra was hopeful about the situation. They left hinting that they were heading back for Basarisk without any argument.
The guards smirked cunningly and went back to their places to perform their duty as usual. Their carriage had been taken away in distance, away from their eyes to let them believe that they were gone. But in reality, they were hiding inside the bushes, keeping an eye on the guards to find a perfect opportunity.
Perhaps the heaven listened their prayers. After a while, another carriage with hurst began to approach the entrance. The hurst were brought for the horses that were staying here. Since it was their regular task, the guards didn't even check on them.
Ayra quickly pulled Jessie with her and climbed up into the carriage whilst the carriage waited at the entrance to be opened up fully. Before Jessie could protest her decision, Ayra pulled both of them into the hurst in order to hide themselves.
Jessie cursed something but it was soon distracted when the carriage began to enter the mansion. The hurst were slightly wet because of the light rainfall which had occurred an hour ago. It was making them uncomfortable and Jessie was all ready to jump out but Ayra kept holding onto her.
The carriage stopped in front of the mansion when they both came down hurriedly and went behind the trees to hide themselves. Ayra whispered to Jessie grinning,
" At least we are inside now."
Jessie snorted while patting on her body. She peeked behind and muttered,
" Now what? How will we meet grandpa now? He is inside the room."
Ayra nodded her head thoughtfully and came up with another idea surprising Jessie,
" There's one more way. We can enter disguising as maids. As long as we reach them, nothing can stop us anymore."
At that moment when the two were busy in planning, a very familiar voice rang from distance,
" Coachman, is this the right time to deliver hurst? Creatures have no morality this days."
