Chapter 23 - CHAPTER 22

The maintenance of the mansion ended, I also clean all the mansion and the day to move out came.

The reason I decided to move now was that the butler and the maids were chosen and dispatched.

As for Cicily, I've told her beforehand and she's already waiting for me at the mansion.

Fukiba is organizing his luggage. I'm empty-handed because I put everything in my magic item-box.

When I went outside, Jake my father was waiting for me.

[You may accept it, a congratulatory gift from me]

James be (butler) brought a black carriage being pulled by two horses from behind. It wasn't flashy, but it was well made.

[Father, thank you. I'll take good care of it]

I bow my head and thank him.

[Fukiba, you don't pay attention to this kind of thing, after all, it seems that you walked home all the way from the royal castle and you're now a Baron so be careful to other noble you meet]

"[Yes, Father]

Ordinary nobles wouldn't do something like walking home from the castle.

But I did it because I wanted to take a walk and even I have a magic teleport.

When I looked inside the carriage, there was enough space for seven people to sit face-to-face. My father's carriage is large enough for ten people to ride, however, I think this is the perfect size for now. We climb into the still-new carriage for (Baron rank).

Two carriages are heading for fukiba's mansion.

It takes about twenty five minutes to get from Jake's mansion to Fukiba's mansion by carriage.

I pass through the gate and attach the carriage in front of the main gate

In front of the entrance, several maids including the butler were waiting in line. The head maid is Cicily.

Cicily is only nineteen, but she's been taking care of fukiba since he was born five years ago.

Most of the new maids are a little younger than Cicily.

By the way, the butler was also young. Probably a little over twenty's.

The butler comes to greet us as the representative of the group.

[Margrave Jake, Baron Young master Fukiba, I've been expecting you, my name is Henry , the new butler of Young master Fukiba. I am James's nephew. Upon hearing that the position of Young master Fukiba's butler was open, I applied. I have heard from James that Young Master Fukiba is a remarkable talent that you don't see often. I look forward to working with you in the future Young master Fukiba]

Then he lowered his head.

When I looked at Mr James's face, he smiled and winked at me.

It seems that James was already informed. On the contrary, I'm more relaxed knowing he's a relative of Mr James. Besides, Cicily is also here.

The people hired to work at Fukiba's mansion are, Henry the butler, Cicily the head maid, Four other maids, one head chef, Two assistant cook, and a horse keeper cum gardener.

When I was wondering if it was okay to hire nine people all of a sudden, I was told that even if I added up the labor costs of all nine, that with just one gold coin and 5 silver coin a month it would be enough. I still have the platinum coin His Majesty gave me, so I'll be fine for the time being. And I'm sure the sales of chess will come in sooner or later.

Everyone enters to my new mansion.

[Not only the outer wall, but the whole interior looks beautiful as it were new. Aren't you happy you got this new mansion?]

Jane (mother of fukiba) asks.

[As I recall, I remember coming to visit the Margrave mansion, but it wasn't as beautiful as it is now]

Jake (father of Fukiba) also followed.

[Originally, we planned to start cleaning up as soon as we got here, but there wasn't a speck of dust when we arrived]

[Young master Fukiba his house he cleaning it, even there's no help from maids]

Cicily replies.

[Ah, it's just that I cleaned up the mansion the other day with magic when I came here! And while I was at it, I used magic to repair the rest and now it looks so much better]

Both Jake and Jane are dumbfounded.

[I'd forgotten that fukiba was outside of common sense]

I guided my family around the house. No matter where you look, everything was as if it had just been built. There is no way I can complain.

[Since Fukiba's only five years old, it's normal that he doesn't know about decorations. Oh, ]

Indeed, the mansion isn't decorated at all.

[I wonder what would be okay as decorations? I don't know much about paintings and vases]

[Hmm. If we're talking about an adventurer, for example, most would display a large stuffed monster as decoration and the like..]

[So a monster it's okay too, right!? Then I'll display it in the front. I'm sure I could have one set up right away with magic]

Saying that, Fukiba leaves his seat immediately. Once I'm in the middle of the hall, I look inside my magic item box, wondering which monster would be good.

While I was wondering which one to choose, I finally found something good. Since the ceiling of the entrance hall is also part of the second floor, it has to some extent a very high ceiling.

If I use this, it'll have a big impact, and not only that, it'll be super cool too.

And what I brought out was a Brown wyvern with its head detached. It's not an earth wyvern or a flying dragon.

It was a monster that would reach nine meters if it extended its neck.

I found it when I was deep in the monster forest, so I tried fighting it.

I placed the dead body of the wyvern in the center, and so, while I was solidifying my mental image, I continued to knead magic power.

Magic Creation||

A light envelops the wyvern.

When the light disappears, a Brown wyvern appears posing as if it were alive. Of course, it's not alive, it's a stuffed monster or like a art.

[The pose should be okay, the neck is connected nicely and it looks much better than any badly made decoration]

Fukiba didn't realize at this point. He thought that when it came to wyvern the standards were the same as in his past life. He just thought the wyverns looked cool. However, wyverns were perceived as something totally different in this world.

In this world, wyverns are a symbol of fear.

They are natural red disaster monsters that would spread its flames as soon as they appear in a city, and could make disappear a small village in a day. This monster that's being used as a decoration is also classified as an SSS-ranked monster in the Adventurer's Guild.

Of course, Fukiba, who is not even registered with the Adventurer's Guild, has no way of knowing this.

Fukiba then returned to where Jake and the others are.

[I tried decorating the central hall with a stuffed monster. There aren't many decorations, but I hope it's okay]

[Hmm, I see. Let's see it later]

Just as I was leading them to the office on the second floor, a girl scream was heard.

[[ Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa a M-M-Monsteer!!!!!! ]]

Jake and Fukiba heard the voices and put on their guard.

[It's coming from the lobby in center hall. I'll take the lead]

Saying that, I take out my sword from the magic item box.

Looking down the stairs, two maids were unable to get up due to fear in the center hall.

The eyes of the maids were glued to the stuffed dragon that I had just placed a few moments ago.

[Ah, I forgot to tell them about to my decorations]

Fukiba breaks out in a cold sweat.

[Fukiba, what kind of stuffed monster did you place there?]

Jake asks with a cold stare.

[...A Wyvern...]

Fukiba replied with an apologetic look on his face.

Jake sighed, unable to say anything.

[For now, let's gather everyone. If we don't explain it, the same thing will happen]

Jake suggested and I agreed with him.

Those in the hall now are, Jake's family, and the butler to all the servants.

[I apologize, I left this without saying anything]

I pointed my finger at a stuffed wyvern positioned in the center of the hall.

[fukiba, what happened with this wyvern?]

A cold voice comes out.

[I've secretly sneak in house and defeated it in the monster forest all by myself...]

--.....--

My family and even all the servants were speechless.

It was already hard enough to believe that anyone could defeat a wyvern, but to believe that a five-year-old could defeat one on his own was unimaginable.

[Fukiba, You'll explain it to me in detail later]

[...Yes]

Fukiba responded weakly to his father Jake's words.

[But still, for it to be a Brown wyvern. That's an SSS-ranked class monster. Just by selling it, you can get hundred platinum coins or higher, you know? This is much better than putting up any poor decoration. You'll register as an adventurer too once you turn ten, won't you, Fukiba?]

hundred platinum coins... That's one billion peso! Amazing!

[A hundred platinum coins, eh...? For it to be worth too much. When I turn ten years old, I plan to register as an adventurer before enrolling in school]

I can't say that I want to sell all the dead monster bodies that I stored so far.

[I see, but don't overdo it, because if the other noble or bandits you sell the high rank monster... They going to interested in you or even your going to danger and put your family]

As we were talking, I heard another scream from the back.

That's my mother's, Jane, voice.

[W-What is it this time??]

I head to where the voice was heard with Jake.

The place we headed was the bathroom.

Then a refreshed Jane came out.

When she saw Fukiba's face, she extremely became happy.

[Fukibaa's!!! W-What's with this bathroom (toilet)!! It's amazing. It washes with water and even dries. I want one in my house too!!]

Ah, that? I used my previous life's knowledge to build a toilet and this is my second created in this world.

Of course, a toilet seat with a water flush.  Wash toilet is the name of a certain manufacturer's product.

In this world, it's flushable, but it wasn't good enough, so I made one.

The controls are set on the right side of the toilet seat, and when you touch it, water comes out of the magical stone inside.

Magic power is automatically absorbed from the user when this sits on the toilet seat.  

[I understand, I'll put it in your mansion next time I go. Father, may I?]

[Hmm. You may. I'll try it too]

Jake also entered the bathroom.

A voice came from inside the bathroom, "UhoOhshooO".

After a few moments, Jake came out, looking embarrassed and surprised.

[I want this added immediately. Not only in my secondary house in the royal capital, but in the entire territory of Ensia. Are you planning to put it on sale too?]

[I plan to put it on the market eventually. But I have no intention of selling it to my family, I'll go there to put them]

[Hmm. That would be great]

[But even so, our fukiba really does things that are out of the ordinary~]

That was Jane, Basically, Jane's reasoning is, "since he's my son and from my blood", and tolerates everything.

It really helps me that she thinks that way.

I guess this is it for the tour. The whole family is leaving, but Fukiba is going to live here starting today.

As they were leaving, Jake casually said.

[The newly settled nobility in the royal capital need to throw a debut party, so make sure you throw one as soon as possible]

[W-What's with that... A Deput Party Again!!!]

It was Fukiba who was speechless and started to start to prepare for Deput Party.
