Chapter 208: Mizuryuus
Astri also senses that Seiryuu has a wider perspective on energies than Kenzou. Seiryuu kisses Astri’s hand elegantly and smiles at her.
"You feel like the water of the Sacred River." He says.
"Well, thank you, Lord Seiryuu. It’s the first time someone compares me to something sacred." She says, taking her hand back. "Well, if you insist on giving me these gifts and understand that doesn’t mean I’m accepting you as spouses, I’ll accept them." She tells the five males who gave her gifts, and they nod.
She organizes the gifts together, Kenzou takes them from her hand, and she thanks him.
"Are you staying at the Spirit Tree Shrine, Lady Astri?" Seiryuu asks.
"Yes, sir. Now, if you excuse us. I would like to keep on checking around the festival." Astri says, bowing to Seiryuu and whoever is following him, and then to the males who gave her gifts.
Seiryuu follows them and starts to walk on her side, after Kenzou gave him space between him and Astri.
"May I know where you are from, Lady Astri? You don’t look like from around here." Seiryuu asks, as he was trying to find something more than the question he had asked.
"I’m from a faraway land, my lord." She answers.
"And how did you end up with Lord Kenzou?"
"Destiny. I believe."
