"Dear Takebayashi, it will be time for the meeting immediately"
"Thank you. I'll be ready in a minute."
By the time the date changed, Mr. Renaise had come to see me.
"Thank you for waiting"
"Are you all right? It's a long time ago."
"I'm fine. Because I used to hunt at night, or sometimes it's the next morning when I notice it because of my hobby research or something. Thank you for your consideration."
Currently, a lot of slimes crawl freely around the rooms I rent. The Ains of Limoulbird should be relaxing in a stables dedicated to bird-shaped warcraft for contact. While I waited for my meeting time, I recommended magic books and such from the mansion's collection, and I read them carefully.
You can take care of me from 1 to 10, and I've already taken good care of you.
"Please let me know as much as you want if it's to this extent. Then let's come."
In the hallway, the magic tools cast on the walls emit modest light.
I feel dimness but no obstruction to movement.
But...
"Mr. Renaise, may I ask you a few questions?"
"Whatever."
"Thank you. Something seems odd from earlier, is there a lot of boundaries around here?
"The junction?... Indeed, our home is for the sake of crime prevention, the junction wizard of security stretches out multiple junctions. But there's nothing particularly around here."
I have felt some strange discomfort many times since right after I left the room for that matter. I often feel it, especially at the corners and entrances and exits. It's like they're searching for a place to be, like they know where they went through... isn't that the eye of surveillance?
Speaking of an ambiguous image, Mr. Renaise seemed to think of something, stopping and turning around.
"Maybe it's a" house possessed fairy. "
"Home possessed... fairy?
I hear fairies are recognized as warcraft and can serve.
Is he in this mansion?
"They say fairy species basically live in nature, but rarely live in old buildings. We repair this mansion if necessary, but it's basically an old building, and we occasionally hear stories of seeing fairies."
She walks out, saying as a matter of course.
"Is that common?
"Right. Until about six months ago, there was a lady. They tend to feel fairy power or see themselves the more magical people are. You had quite a bit of that when the lady and the servants around her were talking about seeing it. I have several times, and then… I hear that when customers, rare items, etc. from exotic countries arrive, they come together with interest"
Basically, a home-owned fairy does not cause harm to landlords or customers, but rather seems to be a patron saint who protects the house and family. Japanesely speaking, "sitting around"?
"Such a fairy is in this mansion...?
The discomfort disappeared.
"They say it's rare for fairy species, not just home possessed, to show up in public themselves, and when you look for them, you hide. The lady took the maid to look for her again and again, but never found her."
"I see."
"You shouldn't worry too much about fairies. There are stories of teasing and being seen as an interesting opponent."
Real fairies. I'd like to see it, but if that's the case, let's forget about it.
While we're talking about that, we arrive at the venue.
"Excuse me...?
I wonder if anyone's still here because I haven't heard back, and I see what Mr. Hughes looks like.
However, there is no movement with a cheek wand on the round table claiming a presence in the centre of the room.
Apparently, you came first and you were sitting in the upper seat, but you're not feeling well, either?
Kind of like being loose...... that? Sleeping?
I could hear my sleep as I approached a few steps.
"Are you still at that rate today..."
"Even today?
"Lately, when you look at it at night, it's always that way."
He's tired of training for a promotion I heard at noon. He says he has no problems with trust or character from other guards, but the vastly increased administrative work seems to be the gateway to him.... Mr. Hughes is looking like a student.
"I'm glad you're serious about me and the future, but I'm worried you won't break my body"
She looks over the room to find out if it's even a cloth to let her weave her feathers somewhere.
When I'm in the mood of falling in love when I see it, I hear the door open from behind.
"Oh?"
"Oh, excuse me"
Looking back, some middle-aged man was about to enter the room with a basket that smelled delicious.
"Are you...?
"Mr. Batts, this is Mr. Takebayashi. He's my husband's benefactor and he makes a statue of God."
"Uh... speaking of which, you were talking about attending a meeting. You, no, you. I'm late, my name is Bats. I'm the head chef at this mansion."
"I'm Lyoma Takebayashi. Best wishes. Then thank you for a delicious dinner."
"Oh, did the menu fit your mouth tonight? That's good."
... I wonder what. I feel a little nostalgic about this guy.
Although rude, he doesn't feel very dignified, on the other hand, he seems soft and calm in his waist. He didn't seem to be originally very tall, but he looked extra short and weak because of his cat tall. On wrinkles carved in the face by age, thin hair...... I feel strongly like a father who has no place in the home or a window salesman.
"Thank you, Chef himself, again today"
"Hey, it's to make my daughter's sunny scene a little better memory."
"Daughter?"
What? Are these two, parents and kids? Mr. Batts looks like a human race...
"I've been looking after Mr. Batts since I was a young girl, and he's like a real father"
You seem to have noticed me questioning you, and Mr. Batts explained it to me.
"Her parents are maids and guards here...... she was a very well looked after benefactor when I was still an apprentice. I wanted to return the favor, and somehow I felt like my own daughter when I was taking care of her."
"My parents each died at an early age in an accident at work, and please allow Master Reinbach, who saw me left behind, to live in this mansion as a maid of honor apprentice. The people who work here are my colleagues, close to my parents and brothers."
"... that's what happened"
I was wondering if you would lend the mansion grounds to a servant's wedding or treat them a little special. I was convinced that those people would do that... but further, he said that he had been Mr. Reinhardt's playmate for a time, or his wife's caretaker, who had been married from another house.
Growing up in this mansion from an early age, she says she is highly valued for her experience, strength, and loyalty, and is entrusted with an important role.
"You're really too young at first to work at all, and now you're older until you're married."
"I don't know a few more times, that story... thanks to all of you raising me back then without abandoning me"
"Even so, right? I think some long time servants feel the same way, don't they?
Mr. Lulunese blushes slightly and becomes silent.
"Master Takebayashi..."
"Oh, would you feel free to call me Lyoma?
I know I'm a customer to them, but I want them to talk normally.
If we can work together for the wedding, I don't want you to worry too much.
You'll have a position, but at least on this occasion.
He nodded when I asked him to.
"Lyoma, you know Hughes."
"Yes, I don't think we've been dating that long, but thanks for your help"
"Right. Then I want you on his side. [M] It's not like I don't like him or disagree with his marriage... because it seems like we're gonna get really hard on him"
With a bitter laugh and warm eyes, he placed the basket he had gently on the round table.
"Hmm...... huh?
"Oh, are you awake?
"Don't, have you fallen asleep? Bats' husband, what's the meeting?
"It hasn't started. A meeting for an important ceremony, if the groom was asleep, someone would have decided to wake him up, wouldn't they?
"No, you're right. Was there also Lyoma and Renaise"
"I've been here a while."
"Good luck"
"You've finally noticed. Are you sure the groom is okay at this rate... if there's anything that makes Lulnese cry, don't let the stress make me lose my hair... then I'll care more about my hair than I do now. And during cooking, I may accidentally drop hair conditioners on your diet"
"Give me a break for cooking with your old man's hair conditioner or something! Don't try to make me hate you. I don't want to cry in the first place."
"I hope not to rob you forever."
I guess that's not who you're supposed to say it to.
But it seems his insides are complicated.
I don't know how that feels when I've never been a parent.
Each person has circumstances and thoughts...
Step away from Mr. Lulnese, who goes in between the two of you, and watch what happens.
In the meantime, people gathered, and eventually the meeting began...
