Lucy kept smiling and then hugged Billy. She probably was talking about Natalie's dad. While he was a man who didn't have much talent when it ca to the skills of the tribe, he was straight like an arrow. So, naturally, he managed to pass through. Lucy's barrier that she put between herself and the others.
Apparently, Natalie didn't rember much of her father. He died when she was just six, after all. However, judging by Lucy's words, he could tell that Natalie was quite the daddy's girl.
"I am truly happy for you, Natalie," Lucy said. "We already said what we had to say to each other and we don't like to talk too much, but I will say that I am truly proud of you. You can easily take my place as the tribe's head, but you can achieve much more than that, so you don't need to. Do whatever you want and achieve many other things."
"Yes, Mom," Natalie said while also smiling like her mother.
Even their smiles were similar, and it was rare to see Natalie smiling that much. Lucy was probably the toughest opponent they had to face in the ceremony. Still, Billy wasn't aware of one that was way above others when it ca to those monts and difficult talks. While that was supposed to be a joyful celebration, it seed that she had sothing in store rather difficult for Billy.
After talking with Lucy, it was ti to et with Billy's family. Since that morning, Camilla was all smiles, so it seed that she had a few things to say for those three. Maybe it was about Billy's bad points.
"Congratulations, you two," Camilla said. "I hope that you all will have a happy life."
"Where are my congratulations?" Billy asked.
"You are marrying two pretty won at the sa ti, you can't expect any more than that, Billy," Camilla said.
"I suppose that is fair," Billy said.
"Billy is reliable, he helped us raise the twins and thanks to him, we had a fairly easy ti," Camilla said. "Still, he has his fair share of shortcomings. For example, when he stays silent for too long, he is usually plotting to do sothing alone. So, make sure not to let him listen too much to the voices in his head."
"Yes, he tends to rush ahead when he does that on the battlefield," Kate said.
"He has the skills to back his actions, but that is too reckless," Natalie added.
"Also, he had the habit of staring at older won with large chests, so make sure to punish him accordingly when he does that," Camilla said. "He is a morning person, but not a nocturnal one. Often when you are talking to him at night, he will just nod and say yes, but he isn't truly paying attention to the conversation. Sotis when he is too focused on sothing, he will skip his baths and only use so magic to clean himself, so you need to watch out for that as well. Also…"
Camilla continued to talk about Billy's bad points for quite a while. His siblings, his father, and his grandmother also looked quite satisfied, probably because they helped her summarize Billy's shortcomings. While saying that seed a bit bad in such a ceremony, it was just their way to help them help Billy as well. He spends too much ti helping and teaching his friends and too little ti trying to improve those shortcomings. As for Billy, he just heard all that as a final lecture since his responsibilities will increase once again, and like Anna said, the new ones were the most important.
"Despite all that… Billy is a wonderful son that I can take pride of, that we can take pride of," Camilla said. "I hope you all have a truly blessed life, but don't hurry in making children, I don't want to be called grandma anyti soon."
"The last part was a bit…" Drew said and then sighed. "Putting that aside, you can count on us if you need help with anything."
"There isn't much for to say here," Anna said. "Don't think too much don't things and just strive to have a happy life while you improve yourselves everyday."
"Sisters, be nice to our brother," Samara said.
"Make him work hard to that I can have more ti to train and to catch him up sooner," Samuel said.
"Yes, we will," Natalie said and then patted the heads of the twins.
"Thank you very much," Kate said and then bowed slightly.
After that, they talked with the other guests, who also had so words for them. The guild masters were already pretty wasted, so they didn't say much. Marie barely could keep their eyes open… And they still had to have dinner together… That is what happens when you drink on an empty stomach.
Still, the rest of the night was pretty enjoyable. It was pretty much just a party to inform the people they cared about that they were going to live together from now on. In any case, Billy also had a surprise for those two. He guided them outside the residence and then noticed that the sky was still cloudy. It was a pity since it was a full moon night. Still, sothing like that wouldn't stop Billy. He used his Earth Manipulation to create a pillar that raised them upward for several minutes until they were moved to beyond the clouds. They were insanely tall, but now they could see a full moon like no other. Still, Kate and Natalie were too scared of the height to properly like the surprise. Fortunately, they were holding on to him while fearing the fall. So, that wasn't half bad. After that, Billy gave Natalie a short kiss and Kate a long one, in order to compensate. In the end, they felt satisfied.
"Now I guess we are truly married," Billy said.. "You two just have to wait until we are back ho for everything to be sealed."
