As Shien said that, he led the group to one of the rooms on the highest floor of the mansion.
There, a magic staff was floating in midair, constantly releasing magic power into the environment.
“Isn’t that the magic staff that Lord Jacinta granted you?”
Vivian paused for a moment after seeing it before speaking up in surprise.
“What that idiot gave you?”
Airi also raised an eyebrow.
“That’s right.” Shien smiled, “This magic staff had a very high grade magic crystal embedded in it from the start. It also has alarm, detection, and even dispelling effects. Setting it here to act as the magic power source for the barriers would not only guarantee the supply of magic power, it would also strengthen the effect of the barriers. It’s two birds with one stone.”
Afterwards, Shien will have Yulin pay special attention to this location. He will even be setting up a spell here to immediately send out a wave of magic power to alert Yulin and call her over at any signs of intrusion.
With all the barriers and this magic staff here, then even in the case where neither Shien nor Yulin are in and thus the mansion is empty, it should still be unlikely for anything to happen here.
“In that case, you indeed won’t be needing any knights or soldiers then.”
Diere looked like she finally relaxed.
“Or rather, with so many high class barriers around along with Yulin here, it’s likely that only the palace can compare to this place when it comes to security.”
Vivian kind of didn’t know if she should laugh or cry at this.
Either way though, this is a good thing in the end.
With such heavy protections, rather than worrying over someone intruding, it might be more appropriate to worry about the intruders themselves or over the possibility that a guest might accidentally trip over a trap or something, leading to them getting erased by the defense systems here.
“Don’t worry, I’ve already set it up ahead of time. For anyone that comes in straightforward through the front gate, basically 70% of the defenses here will leave them be.”
Shien showed a teasing smile like he realized what the girls were worried over.
“Of course, if they end up intruding into somewhere they shouldn’t be, then that’s another matter entirely.”
Obviously the remaining 30% is for dealing with people like that.
Vivian and the others can only show a moment of pity for those foolish individuals.
“Anyways, we don’t have to worry about the safety here.”
Shien clapped his hands and then looked toward Lumia.
“This way, you shouldn’t need to worry about anything happening to your little sisters anymore, right?”
In response, Lumia showed a relieved yet also somewhat embarrassed expression.
One thing needs to be said at this point. Lumia had already decided to stay in the Capital.
And just like they’ve already decided, her seven little sisters will also be brought to the Capital where they’ll be moving in here.
The time is decided to be three months from now.
Three months from now, Leili will also have finished handing over all her responsibilities and be returning to the Capital in a trial management position over the headquarters of the adventurers guild.
It originally wouldn’t have been this soon, but Vivian had already written a letter to Leili saying that she will be staying in the Capital, that the members of Vivain’s party will also be staying, and even the fact that Shien had become a noble here. Thus, that guildmaster immediately signaled that she’ll be returning to the Capital ahead of time as well.
At that time, Leili will be bringing Lumia’s seven little sisters along with her.
As for the three months in the meanwhile, Leili will continue to take care of Lumia’s sisters for her.
In other words, after Shien is officially conferred his noble title, the members of Vivian’s party will also be able to move in.
As an aside, Vivian will also be moving in.
Diere, Lumia, and Melika are all here after all. There’s no reason for her to stay over in the Latrard home on her own.
Thus, after Diere and the others especially convinced Vivian, she finally agreed to also move in.
Add in Airi who also followed along like it’s only natural, everyone who had been living in the Latrard home will all be moving here.
“All that’s left is Lasha’s side.”
Shien make such a statement.
And just at that very moment…
“Please do not worry. Everything had already been prepared.”
Lasha appeared here out of nowhere, giving everyone quite a start.
“Please follow me everyone.”
Lasha ignored the fact that everyone jumped in fright and simply spoke with an emotionless face. Then she brought everyone to the main hall on the first floor of the mansion.
And that unbelievably roomy main hall was somehow filled with people at some unknown point in time.
“”””Welcome, master!””””
Two full rows of pretty and cute maids with above average appearances were lined up on the two sides of the hall, bowing at Shien’s group who just came down from the top floor.
Shien was stunned.
Everyone in Vivian’s party was also dumbfounded.
Even Airi showed an expression of shock.
Everyone then looked over at Lasha.
“These are the maids and servants that I hired. I hope everyone is satisfied with them.”
Lasha spoke with an extremely calm voice like she did something utterly insignificant and unworthy of note.
Everyone continued to stay silent.
As for Shien, he only had two things that he wanted to say.
“This maid really is as untouchable as always.”
That was the first thing.
The second thing was even simpler.
“Beautifully done.”
That’s an absolutely necessary praise.
Thus, Shien’s new home has finally basically ready.
His own ennobling ceremony had also quietly arrived in the meanwhile.
