Rion exited the carriage and looked at Calanire's mansion examining it more closely becoming more and more despondent the longer he looked at it.
As Rion was looking over Calanire's mansion he noticed a figure in one of the second story window's "Do you live with somebody?" Rion asked Calanire wondering if the figure he saw in the window was one of the servant's.
Calanire looked at Rion with disinterest but still answered his question with a shake of his head "No me and you are the only one's that will be staying here" Calanire said as he walked towards the mansion.
Rion turned back to the mansion and looked up at the window on the second floor where he saw the figure only to see that no-one was there 'It must've been my imagination?' Rion wondered to himself as he continued to look at the second floor window before he shook his head and followed Calanire inside.
Rion walked through the door's of the mansion with his finger's crossed hoping to find that the inside of the mansion was in a better state than it's outside.
Rion entered the door's of the mansion that looked as though they could fall off at any moment with baited breath only to find that the inside was in the same dilapitated state as the outside.
Rion looked around the room and saw that the furniture that was scattered throughout the room was covered in a layer of dust, spider webs hung from the corners and the roof of the room as tattered curtains hung from rust covered polls failing to block out the light that came in through the window's.
Krrrrr.
A floorboard squeaked under Rion's foot as he shifted his weight 'As if the state this place is in wasn't enough it just keeps getting creepier and creepier' Rion thought to himself lamenting over his situation.
Although in his past life Rion didn't grow up in the cleanest of place's this place made the orphanage he grew up in look like a luxury five star hotel.
Rion only snapped out of his thought's when Calanire who was standing on the staircase that led to the second floor spoke "Will you stop with your gawking and follow me to your room or if you'd sooner sleep on the floor then stay there" Calanaire said with an bored tone to his voice before he continued heading up the staircase.
Rion quickly followed after him preferring to sleep on a bed no matter it's condition than a dusty and dirty floor.
As Rion climbed the staircase after Calanire a shadowy figure appeared in the place that he was just standing watching him as he made his way to the second floor.
As if he felt the shadowy figure's stare Rion quickly turned around but found that nothing was there which sent a shiver down his spine as he quickened his pace.
Once Rion had disappeared around the corner the shadowy figure appeared once more but this time when it appeared it had a long creepy grin on it's face before it disappeared into a wisp of smoke.
==================
Rion manged to catch up to Calanire and the pair walked down the hallway in silence until they came to what Rion could only assume would be his room.
Not bothering to wait for him Calanire opened the door and walked into the room Rion following only moment's later.
Upon seeing Rion enter the room Calanire spoke "As you've probably already guessed this will be your room during your stay here" Calanire said plainly before he headed out of Rion's room shutting the door behind him.
Rion looked at the door after Calanire left and shook his head before he looked around at his new room.
The room was relatively bare with only a bed, a dust covered desk, a wardrobe and a single window that let in the light from the setting sun that came from outside.
Tired from the day that he had Rion walked over to the bed and lowered himself on it "At least it's not as bad as the rest of the place" Rion said to himself as he sat on his bed which caused a cloud of dust to be thrown up into the air.
Cough. Cough. Cough.
Rion let out of a cough when the dust flew up into the air while trying to waft it away with his hand as he stood up from his bed and moved towards the window in the room opening in an attempt to air the room out.
Once the window was open Rion turned to face the dust covered room before he released a sigh "Haah~ I guess sleeping will have to wait... first thing's first let's get this place to at least look livable" Rion said as he got to work on cleaning his room.
========
Rion collapesed on top of his bed after nearly two hour's of cleaning Rion the room dark the sun having long since set.
"Finally finished" Rion said as he fell backwards onto his bed his eye's closed as his legs hung over the bottom of his bed.
Rion lay there for a few moment's before his eye's opened his gaze turning towards the window looking at the moon that hung in the night sky.
"Urgh I stink" Rion said as he caught the smell of his sweat covered self and knew immediately that he needed to wash himself if he was going to get any sleep.
Even though he knew that he needed to clean himself Rion didn't want to move from his bed as he was too tired not just from the physical but also the mental exhaustion that had built up over the course of the day.
After a few minute's procrastinating Rion reluctantly got up from up from his bed made his way out of his room and went across the hall where a bathroom was located.
Twenty minute's later Rion returned to his room and slipped under the covers of his bed and in no time at all soft breathing could be heard in his room.
Little did Rion know that his first night in his new home would be less than pleasant.
