Chapter 492: The faster the better, no?
If you are ever in need of personnel again, please reach out to my company again.
Thank you for today.
.
I paid for the three people, and were on our way back to the mansion with them using the carriage.
Master, lets drop by the clothing stores.
Ill leave it to you, Maribelle.
The clothes provided by Moulin-san werent just simple tunics with holes, but as to be expected, those were the only one.
Master, I believe they should work in the Sanctuary for the time being.
Youre right. Charlotte would be better off without any eyes around.
As I stayed in the carriage, Sebastian, who was in the driver seat, talked about where the three girls should work.
I plan to eventually have them do negotiations with the Papeck Company in the Volton mansion, but I think that should be after theyve gotten accustomed to their environment.
After bringing the girls to the Sanctuary, will you head to the Royal Capital, Master?
Yeah, I dont know if Lord Simon can meet with me immediately, but the earlier the better.
Certainly. Its important to be in a position where they can work for their freedom, after all.
Right? Ill get them to grant amnesty somehow.
I believe it will be alright because of her circumstances, but please do your best for Charlotte.
I talked to Sebastian about all sorts of things until Maribelle and the girls returned.
Thank you for waiting.
Then lets head back? Sebastian, if you could.
Certainly.
Sebastian directed the carriage to the mansion.
Moulin-san advised that it would be best if we moved as fast as possible for Charlottes case. It seems the Noble faction who were unable to profit from this were looking for Charlotte.
When we arrived at the mansion, the maids came out to greet us.
Sebastian was primarily in charge of Volton, so Maribelle, Sophia, and the three girls came with me to the basement.
What you see here is a secret.
Yes
Gina responded cheerfully. She seems to be the type to get over her feelings quickly. Charlotte and Ana[1] seemed to not have their hearts set yet but thats fine for now.
Wha!? Is this an ancient site?
Eh!?
no way.
Now then, come with me.
The three were surprised upon seeing the Teleport Gate installed in the basement. I quickly registered their magic power, then activated the teleporter to the Sanctuary mansion and teleported.
We arrived at the identical basement teleport room and came up from the basement to be greeted by Jeeves and Mabel.
Welcome home, Master.
Madam Maria and Lady Akane have secluded themselves in the workshop with Kaede-san.
I see, it looks like their clothing stuff seem to be doing well. Also, these girls will be staying here for a while, so assist them where you can, okay?
Uwaa!
amazing.
t- this is
What they saw past the large window in the living room were the Spirit Spring and the Spirit Tree beyond it. The three girls were at a loss for words at that beautiful sight.
Mabel, show them their rooms. Once theyve dropped off their luggage, could you show them around the mansion? I have some business in the Capital.
Understood.
Leaving the three stunned girls to Mabel, I teleported to the Royal Capital with Sophia.
Charlottes matter should be dealt with as soon as possible. I also need to reassure her mother who had to return to her parents home.
When we teleported close to the Royal Capital, we walked from there to the gates of the Royal Capital and lined up.
At times like this, Im jealous of nobles.
Because theyre prospering, the lines at the gate had gotten much longer.
Carriages of nobles passed by the line we stood in and went through an exclusive gate for them.
The line of people coming in and out of the Royal Capital in these good times were truly long. As such, it took us two hours of waiting to enter the Royal Capital.
Once we entered the Royal Capital, we made an appointment with Lord Simon. We soon received a reply stating that he had time around noon tomorrow, so we booked a room at a high class inn to prepare for tomorrow.
That said, we were actually teleporting back to the Sanctuary to sleep there. The room in the high class inn was only for teleporting.
Its still a while before dinner, so Sophia and I had a date in the Royal Capital for the first time in a while. Sophia was also happy to have a date with just the two of us.
Afterwards, we enjoyed our date until dinnertime, then we enjoyed our meal at the inn and teleported back to the Sanctuary mansion.
Early morning the next day, we returned to the inn after having breakfast, and rested until our appointment time with Lord Simon.
