One More Time: Rebirth

My little sister started practicing alongside me in both swordsmanship training and magic lessons. She was currently four years old and was a natural in battle. Her instinct in handling a sword was incredible. Still, I couldn't tell if this was a normal thing in this world or if my sister was truly exceptional.

My parents weren't much help either since they dote on me and my sister too much. Though they keep on saying Sarah was a genius same as me, I'm unsure if she really was one or if that's just my parents being doting parents. Even the servants loved my little sister too much for them to be unbiased. Well, to be fair she is too cute for her own good.

Whatever... It doesn't really matter if she is a genius or not. All that matters is that she's my little sister and she's adorable.

...

One day after practicing our sword swings, Sarah tugged on my shirt. "Big bro, you promised that we'll play outside today."

I smiled at my little sister and answered. "Of course a promise is a promise. Let's tell dad will be going out to play today."

After asking for dad's permission my little sister and I headed out. As we were about to go outside, I saw my dad and mom almost bleeding tears of blood while looking at us. It seems like they wanted to join us in our play today, but were unable to since they had some paperwork that they need to deal with.

I wasn't sure what the paperwork was about, but it would seem that the head butler insisted that the two of them needed to finish the paperwork today. Now that I think about it, aside from knowing my parents were former adventurers, I don't know much about their past, and what their current jobs were. All I know was that they had a job that allowed them to stay at home. They also only needed to go out every now and then, and still retain this level of wealth.

One of this days I need to ask them what they do for a living now that they weren't adventurers. But for now, I need to happily accompany my baby sister to play.

...

The moment we stepped out of the mansion I once again sensed the bodyguards that would usually accompany me on my strolls outside. Even now I have never actually seen them, I don't even know their names. When I asked my parents about them, they responded that their identities needed to remain a secret.

While I was thinking about these various things, Sarah started pulling my hand. "Big bro, look, look bunch of pretty flowers." Sarah happily pointed at the field of flowers that was near our house. She then let go of my hand and started running towards the field of flowers.

"Careful now."

Sarah then started to happily run around while laughing as she started picking up some flowers. After she was done picking some of them up she came back to me with a huge smile on her face.

"Big bro, Big bro, look these are for you." Sarah handed me some random flowers, which I gladly received. "Thank you, I love them. Now big bro has something to give you."

"Really, what is it!?"

"It's a surprise so close your eyes."

"Okay!" Saray closed her eyes and blocked them with her tiny hands. I then used the flowers she gave me and moved my hands nimbly and attached the flowers into a pattern. Once I was satisfied I used a spell to make the flowers stick together.

"Open your eyes, here this is for you." Sarah opened her eyes and when she saw the wreath of flowers I made. She looked at the wreath of flowers with wonder her eyes.

"So pretty," Sarah spoke in amazement.

"Not as pretty as you, my little sister." I then placed the wreath of flowers upon Sarah's little head. She then started to giggle as she happily started running circles around me. I then placed a single flower into my pocket, as a memento for this day.

I'll try asking mom later if there is a way to preserve this flower. After playing around a bit more, Sarah and I headed home satisfied.
