Chapter 104: Aspel's Royal Family is....

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

"Welcome home, Ferdinand-sama. Welcome, everyone. We all have been expecting you."

As soon as we reached a large gate,, we saw about 10 women in maid uniforms and men in butler uniforms standing respectively on the left and right side. They all bowed to us in unison. Then in between the line of men and women, an old man with combed down grey hair and well-fitting outfit came forward. He greeted us while bowing deeply.

Wait a minute?! Huh? Fer-san did say the management of the mansion is being entrusted to the servants but I didn't know there were this many servants?!

"Yes, I'm back. Ren-kun, this is Theo. He's the steward of this mansion. We leave all the management of this mansion to him. He's been working for us ever since my mother was a little baby."

"How do you do? I'm Ren Himukya Cleva. I'll be in your care on this occasion."

"I'm Christian Hast~"

"Sigurd Tyselius."

"I'm very honoured to meet everyone here. I'm Theodore Wiren. Please call me Theo. I've been told that every gentleman here is going to be Ferdinand-sama's family in the future. Please make yourself at home and relax to your heart's content."

Fer-san introduced us to that man and I hurriedly greeted him back. Theo-san, just like what his profession entitled, he exuded a calm vibe. His monocle really suited him too. He told us to relax but... To be honest I doubt I could relax in a mansion like this...

"Are the rooms ready already? Chris, Sig, you can leave your magical horse to him."

"Yes. We've prepared the guest room for everyone."

"Then please escort them to their room. After you're done with that, please bring them to the parlour."

"Understood."

Fer-san talked to Theo-san while one of the maids opened the gate for them. We all then followed suit and went into the mansion. Fer-san then handed Viktor's reins to another man standing nearby and told Chris-san and Sig-san that they could do the same. It seemed Fer-san had contacted them first while we were still in Pedrel. The servants of this mansion had prepared various things for us already.

"Gentlemen. We've prepared adjoined rooms for everyone so please allow us to show you the room. This way, please."

"Go ahead. After you're done with the tour, let's meet up at the parlour to have tea together?"

"Okay."

"I'll see you soon."

After I went through the door, I was greeted with the sight of a spacious entrance hall. The furniture and the flowers are intricately stylized in a way that gives off a calm and relaxing ambience. There was a large spiral staircase in front of us and Theo-san motioned for us to follow him to the second floor. All of us followed suit except Fer-san.

A few maids followed behind us. The corridor on the second floor was wide enough for 4 to 5 people to walk side by side.

This... This is Fer-san's secondary residence...

"These three rooms are the rooms where everyone will be staying. Our staff are more than happy to show you the facilities in the room. If there's anything you need, please do not hesitate to tell us immediately."

After passing a few doors, Theo-san stopped on his track and motioned at the rooms we would be staying in.

I see... So the maids behind us are here to give us a tour of the room...
