Chapter 187: "A White Tiger"

After breakfast, Grandpa Yofan escorted Ainsley and Cellino to the front gate of the mansion. Elliana and Kyuseli walked behind the two while wearing a formal white shirt and black suit, typical of a mafia. 

On their right chest was embedded a silver badge with a unique carving on the surface. When Ainsley saw the badge for the first time, she almost couldn't believe her eyes. 

Why doesn't the badge show a dolphin, the symbol of the Sloan main family? This badge showed a completely different symbol instead…

And what they used was a carving of a Fenrir looking to the left, a black panther looking to the right, and a white tiger at the centre. Its red eyes were made of real rubies. 

Such a badge...is it the Sloan Family's symbol, or what? 

Ainsley finally asked Grandpa Yofan as they walked to the front yard, and indeed, it turned out, the Sloan Family's symbol was the three sacred guardians. 

The dolphin thingy was just used to represent the family head. It's because a dolphin looked cute but was actually savage and brutal. That's how the Sloan Family wished their family head would be. 

But the pillars of the family was still undoubtedly the three sacred guardians. That's how it ended up becoming the Sloan Family's symbol. 

'So...the white tiger at the centre is the last sacred guardian...and the strongest? The only female among the other guardians?' 

Ainsley peeked at the badge shining on Elliana's chest. It was her first time knowing the last sacred guardian's true form...which was a white tiger with red eyes like a demon. 

No wonder it would be the strongest...a white tiger was one of the four legendary beasts of ancient China. 

Its fame could be on par with a Fenrir. Ah, no, it should be more because Fenrir wasn't that well-known among beasts such as dragons or other creatures. 

The black Panther most likely only existed as a legend in this world and not related to legend from another world. But since its power was great, it could be the second strongest. 

Ainsley mused over the three beasts carved on the badge until she arrived at the front gate, the last line one must take to step out of the mansion.

"Ain, where are here." Grandpa Yofan put Ainsley down from his arms and carefully pointed at the black fence with a large Sloan Family's symbol at the centre. 

Ainsley instantly snapped out of her daze and lifted her head to see the 10-meters tall gate, the thing prohibiting her from going outside. 

Even though the gate was a type of fence and one could see things through the gaps, surprisingly, Ainsley could see nothing but white fog. 

Maybe it was some kind of security measure…

While Ainsley was inspecting the shining black gate under the soft sunlight of the morning, Grandpa Yofan held the baby's hand and pointed at the corner of the gate where one could come in and out through there. 

"Ain, the five buds are waiting there. Let's go." 

"Hwum!" Ainsley, with Cellino and the invisible Godfather tailing behind her, headed toward the five buds. 

The five buds also wore the same typical mafia uniform and wore the same emblem as Elliana and Kyuseli, but they wore an additional cloak to distinguish themselves from regular members. 

The five buds each carried their own symbol on the surface of the cloak they wore. 

Jevon, the pack leader, had the symbol of a tree root, symbolising his position as the core of the team. 

Ethania, despite her small body and such, was given the symbol of a sturdy trunk since she's one of the most influential members in the pack and had the strength to carry the group. 

Marietta, the mediator of the group, had the symbol of fresh green leaf in sync with her plant manipulation ability. 

Alvaro, the most mysterious yet capable member, was entrusted with the symbol of an exquisite branch. Because he's an otherworldly summoner, he truly could spread his influence just like tree branches. 

Last but not least, the most highly seeked part of a tree–

The fruit and the flower. 

Those symbols were given to Nouvan, the youngest among the five buds but was also an all-rounder like Jevon. 

His ability was beautiful and sweet, especially his healing ability that many would vie for. 

Just like that, the five buds proudly stuck out their chest as Ainsley approached them. 

"Good morning, young miss!" Jevon was the first one to give a polite salute to Ainsley, even when she's still 10 meters away from his place. 

Following Jevon were Marietta and the others. 

"Good morning, princess." 

"Yooo, morning, boss!" 

"Good morning, family head." 

"...morning." 

The four people took turns to greet Ainsley, with Marietta being second after Jevon and Alvaro being the last, as usual. 

"Mowning!" Ainsley returned the greeting with a sweet smile, instantly melting these youngsters' hearts. 

Especially Jevon. 

"Y-young miss! We will travel to the capital using a special carriage. Do you mind?" Jevon hurriedly approached Ainsley and started to pique her interest as he explained what they're going to do now. 

Indeed, Ainsley's ears perked up at the news. 

"Cwalliage? (Carriage?)" 

Ainsley blinked her round red eyes in confusion. Thankfully, the five buds already knew she's in disguise. Else, they would freak out. 

"Yes, young miss. A carriage built by special ability users to ward off monsters on the way to the capital!" Jevon cleared Ainsley's doubts within a second. 

Ahhh, so that's why we will use a carriage instead of a car…

Although there is a modern vehicle here, they can't ward off monsters just like a carriage pulled by some beasts. 

And here I thought we don't use a car because we are broke…
