"Qise!"
Serin's small legs step carefully on the stairs. He was thinking of the wedding earlier that he had forgotten his promise to his wife! What if his wife thinks that he doesn't love him anymore? That's not good!
"Qise, I want to go to the Strauss family to get my wife!"
Reaching downstairs, Serin breathes heavily before running to the hall to find Qise's figure. This is the first time he pondered why he lives in a castle when mansions will do.
I want a mansion!
"Qise I want a mansion!"
Running around, he saw Qise sitting on a sofa with a laptop on his thigh and rushed like a cannonball causing Qise to be frightened.
"Ancestor!"
"Qise I want a mansion!"
Qise glanced at Serin whose not even wearing socks making his cute little toes visible.
"Why? didn't you like this mansion?"
"No! Everyone said that this is a castle, not a mansion! I want a mansion!"
Qise massaged his forehead. He's been thinking about how to contact the science and technology academy to make an appointment with the dean but now his ancestor is putting more jobs onto him! Besides what's the use of a mansion when you live in a castle?!
"Little master, care to tell what's in your mind?"
"I want to marry a wife!"
"Your wife can live here." please don't add more work, thank you.
"No! My wife said he wanted to live in a mansion!"
"When?"
"Just now, I thought about it."
Qise: "..."
Qise sighed: "Little master, can we buy a mansion next time? I'm quite busy today."
Serin pouted, crawl next to Qise and peek at the laptop.
"You're not even working, are you sure you're not making me bankrupt?"
Qise: "..."
Please give me my salary, thank you.
Thinking of going crazy if this conversation continued, Qise hurriedly complied and called his secretary to contact a real estate broker.
Serin who is finally getting a mansion is satisfied.
"As expected of my subordinates, you are worthy of praise."
Qise: "..."
Somehow, he doesn't feel happy at all.
Since kindergarten class is canceled, Serin spends his time playing in the garden under the watchful eyes of some maids. The old butler is busy checking the schedule of the servants and visiting the place they're assigned to see if the assignment is complete while Qise is trying to contact one of his acquaintances to help him have an appointment with the dean of the science & technology academy.
For others, it was such a peaceful day but for the Strauss family, it's the opposite.
"You are spoiling him too much dad!"
"What's wrong with it? If it's that brat of yours who wanted something you will give it without a second thought but if little Xanric wants something you always play like a good father and ignore it?! You're so hypocritical!"
Xeric's expression cools down.
"Xenon is my son from the woman I love, of course, he's different!"
"Do Xanric wish to be your son!"
The old patriarch pointed at Xeric: "I'm telling you! It's that woman's fault and you have no right to blame a child for something he didn't do! Whether you like it or not Xanric is a Strauss!"
Xeric gritted his teeth. He didn't blame Xanric but his father being partial and always scolding his second son is not acceptable to him, Xenon is his legitimate son and no matter what, he's more important than Xanric who came out from that mad woman's stomach!
"Do you know what that good grandson of yours did?!"
"He injured someone! Just like that mad woman! You sided with him too much that he is unwilling to listen to me!"
The old patriarch calms himself and looks at his son indifferently.
"Hmp. What's wrong? We don't lack money to pay for medical bills."
"Dad! are you hearing what you're saying?!"
"Xanric is just a child! What do you expect him?!"
"That child, if not disciplined would just bring trouble to us! Do you know he's treating someone as his doll? That child is sick like his mother!"
"Xanric had no friends, he just probably want a playmate."
Xeric dumbfoundedly looks at his father.
He knew no matter how many times he argue, his father won't listen to him. After all, his father who has always been alone and depressed after the death of his mother finally found someone to accompany him, this is why Xanric is more favored than his son Xenon who is indifferent and cold to the old man.
What can he do?
Thinking of that woman, he couldn't help but feel mad.
——"Little master is happy."
In a castle surrounded by plants and trees, a little prince is running around the garden, playing tag games with the servants. The scenery is warm and the breeze that touches the skins is refreshing.
Three maids are standing near the table sets under the parasol.
A gardener is trimming bushes.
Some servants are walking around carrying boxes of ordered goods.
This scene could make someone think that they teleport to another dimension. After all, a huge castle erect in a forest, surrounded by tall trees and different kinds of plants and flowers, there are even some tames wild animals who ignored the people that come and go.
If a dragon suddenly flew into the sky they won't think it's impossible.
Are they in a fantasy kind of world?
"Wow. I never knew something like this existed!"
One of the young delivery men looks around in awe and can't help but admire.
"I also reacted like you when I first deliver commodity here. Though the wild animals there are tamed you still be careful."
"That's right, I like to be assigned to deliver here because you can eat delicious food!"
"Yeah, plus the servants are also approachable and kind."
The delivery young man feels good: "The owner must be a good person then."
Other delivery men agreed.
They are a total of six personnel, one truck contains branded clothes, the second holds the goods, and the third truck consists of equipment.
The three old men have been assigned to deliver a commodity in this place numerous times so they're used to it but the three newbies who came with them are not...so they keep looking around a lot.
"Hurry up and put the things inside. The person assigned to the equipment, the head butler said to be careful since the little prince of this castle is playing in the garden, when walking makes sure to pay attention to avoid bumping into a child."
The two middle age man nodded and started to move.
"Second team, the kitchen staff will coordinate with you to check the goods, make sure to listen and note down the concern."
"Yes."
The middle-aged man stamps the paper he's holding and look at the newbie assigned to him: "Let's go and carry the boxes of clothes. The head butler is waiting in the main hall to check."
"Ah?" the young delivery man was shocked.
"W-We will enter the castle?"
The middle age man looks at the newbie helplessly, he can't scold him because the young man's reaction is exactly the same as his when he was first assigned here.
"Yes so you hurry up, the head butler is waiting."
"A-Ah good."
The young delivery man still didn't expect that he could step inside such a magnificent castle and couldn't help but look at his dirty shoes.
"T-This..." he hesitantly glances at his senior uncle.
"What are you doing dangling around?"
"I-I just thought that my shoes are dirty and we will step inside."
The middle age man paused and look down.
"You don't need to worry. The people here are kind, and workers like us are not seen as dirty. Besides, I've been delivering here for years and get accustomed to it. They're not like those rich people who look down on people like us."
The young man suddenly feels amazed and looks at the huge castle in front.
He didn't expect rich people like that still exist.
"Hurry up and move!"
"Y-Yes!"
Serin has been playing around and finally get tired. Qise left to go in the company so he could only let the maids serve him.
Grandpa butler is also busy since the delivery arrived.
Thinking that Qise brought him a mansion, he didn't dare to feel lonely.
A qualified domineering president is not afraid of being alone!
He's already a big baby and can't bother grandpa butler anymore!
"Why is little master sad?"
Sad?
Serin looks puzzled and his big watery eyes stare at sister maid.
"No, I'm a big baby I can't be sad!"
Rachelle, the maid who always stays with Serin whenever Qise and the head butler are busy couldn't help but scream internally when her little master stares at her with such a cute expression.
"Yes. little master is a big baby but a big baby can also feel sad."
Probably because Qise and Butler Yul are busy, the little master feels alone again.
They'd been working in this castle for years and they knew the mood of their little master, especially her [Rachelle] who always switches positions with Qise and Butler Yul whenever both are busy.
"B-But grandpa butler said that a big baby is always happy. I-If I'm sad then I'm a little baby."
Serin pursed his lips: "I-I don't want to be a little baby, I'm already five years old, I'm a big baby."
It should be four years old.
The little master is always unwilling when it comes to age, when he was three years old he always said that he was four years old and now that he's four years old he always said that he's five years old.
Such a baby is really cute.
Chuckling, she kneels down and wipes her little master's mouth full of crumbs.
"Little master is a big baby, and a big baby is not afraid to express emotion. So if the big baby is sad then it's still a big baby."
Serin reluctantly nods.
"B-Baby is actually sad because Qise and grandpa butler is not playing with me b-but I'm a big baby I can play alone and play with sister maids."
The maidservants who were listening aside suddenly feel distressed.
How could their little master be this good?
A big baby is a big baby. A big baby should not feel wronged!
"Little master, don't worry master Qise will play with you later."
"That's right, little master wanted a mansion and master Qise just went out to buy it for you."
"Yeah. Yeah. Don't be sad little master."
Serin's chubby cheeks flushed as he hummed.
He suddenly feels better knowing that despite being sad, he's still a big baby. To become a qualified domineering president he must let everyone know that he's not a little baby! It's very important for them to recognize his existence as a five-year-old smart baby!
Hmp. Big baby can feel sad, Qise is so bad! Why leave and not play with him?!
His system is not qualified!
Qise who was meeting his acquaintance sneezed.
It seems like he's being scolded by his villain host again. As expected, despite being a baby, his host villain nature couldn't be changed. It's really an ancestor!
"Are you okay?"
Qise grabs a tissue to block his nose: "It's fine"
The man sitting across him let out a low laugh.
"I'm thinking why you suddenly called, this is the first time I heard about your little master and I also didn't expect that a great figure like you that shook the business world is just a servant of a certain family. My worldview has changed."
"Well, thanks to my father who is loyal, I was given a surname after being an orphan."
It's a lie.
Sub-system like him...only the main system can be his father!
"I see, but I'm really curious. I never heard of such a surname."
Qise throws the tissue: "It's hidden."
"I can actually help you to make an appointment but I'm telling you this..." the man stare at him deeply "Conrad Nekriel is an absolute madman that you mustn't provoke."
"Their family's reputation is unshakable that even the Strauss family couldn't move them. I can only help you meet him but I couldn't be sure that he'll accept your request."
Qise folder his legs.
"I'm familiar with the Nekriel but I will still try to bargain. I can't afford my little ancestor to suffer."
The man sighed: "It's really hard, the reason why there is hardly an orphanage, it's because children who awaken without their parent's pheromone comfort only had one ending and that is death. I heard that Nekriel is also studying some alternatives and some theories already passed the trial but it's still unknown if the medicine is already developed because the information is kept hidden."
Qise took a sipped of wine and said, "Anyways, Nekriel is not the kind that would keep their achievement a secret for so long since it cost their reputation."
"You're right. If ever the medicine was developed it will boost the reputation of the Nekriel family."
The man sighed: "It's scary how the Nekriel controls the humans' stabilization."
Qise: "Well, they have the ability.
Man: "Up until now I'm still surprised how the citizen protest to make criminals become an experimental subject in the alternation of the death penalty."
Qise: "People have a desire. It's inevitable."
