The day has come for us to move to King's Landing. We said goodbye to Mika and Dolan from Gingetsu, Ael from Parento, Zanak from Fashion King Zanak, Baral from Weapon Shop Kumahachi, and all the other people who have helped us, and then we left the town of Rivlet.
　It was the first time I came to this world and lived in this town. I have a lot of feelings for this town. I can come to the gate whenever I want, but it's still very emotional for me.
　Dolan-san said he was going to turn this town into a chess town. The King is very enthusiastic about it, so his aim may work surprisingly well.
　As a parting gift, I gave Mr. Zanuck a piece of paper with various clothing designs printed on it. Eventually, there might be a nurse's uniform or a sailor's uniform. ...I didn't suggest it, Mr. Zanuck ate it up.
　I gave Ael-san from "Parent" some candy recipes and some useful tools for making them in "Modeling. I gave her an ice cream server, a circle, heart and star cutter, and a torte cutter. I'll come back for more when I have new ones.
　Likewise, I gave Micah a perforated knife, a peeler, a fruit juice press, a grater, and a variety of cooking recipes. This would make the food at the Silver Moon even more destructive.
　When I left everyone and returned to the royal capital, there were several carriages parked in front of the house and some furniture was being brought in. Yumina, who was directing the furniture delivery, noticed us appearing in the yard of the house and rushed over to us at a quick pace.

''Fuyao-san, it was just as well. There is someone here right now that I would like you to hire for the family order of this house, could you meet with him?
'What? Now?

　When I was startled, an old man with white hair and a beard, dressed in all-black formal wear, walked up to me from the terrace of the mansion. Huh?

I don't believe it's the first time we've met... or the second time, sir. My name is Lime. You shall be pleased to meet me.

　Mr. Lime bowed deeply. He is in his late 60s. But his movements give the impression of youthfulness.

I've served as your father's caretaker for many years. "My grandfather has been your father's caretaker for many years, and there's nothing in it for him.
What?

　Does that mean you were the king's caretaker? You're pulling one hell of a class act again!

Why would someone like that come to our house again...
It was too late to overcome the advancing tide, and I have turned over the role to my son. Then Her Highness invited me to join her. I thought it wouldn't be a bad idea to spend the rest of my life serving the man who saved my brother's life.
...your brother?
My name is Raym. I'm in the service of His Royal Highness Prince Oltrinde.
'Oh! You're Mr. Raym from Sue's place!

　Well, I thought it looked like someone else, but it was Mr. Raym. Another brother in the service of the King's brothers. Brothers Stewards.

"What do you think? Would you hire me?
'No, I have no complaints here.... Are you sure? There are better places to be treated...
'No, I'd like to be of service here. It's nice to meet you.

　Mr. Lime bows his head again. I have no reason to refuse, so I decided to ask him to manage the house and supervise the hired help. I will leave the management of this house to one hand.

''Then let's get right to it, sir.
'Don't mister!
'No, as long as you are employed, the relationship of master and servant must be in order. So, sir, I have a few people I'd like to hire, would you be willing to meet with them?

　I tried to get him to stop, but it was no use. He doesn't give in as a cancer. He's a professional butler, this guy. Anyway, Lime-san left the mansion in a hurry, as he was going to bring those people with him. You act fast.....

''You found a good butler.

　Else walked into the mansion with her baggage. Linse and Yae followed, and Yumina began directing the furniture to be brought in.
　I headed to my room as well, and after unloading my luggage, I decided to help bring it in.
　My room is the largest room on the second floor, but it's still empty except for the bed and closet that have been installed. I have a bed, but no bedding. There is a chest of drawers, a desk, a chair, and a bookcase that should be delivered today. And the futon, too.
　Huh? I just realized that I could have made a chair or a chest of drawers with me "modeling" it, right? You don't have to pay a lot of money for it.... No, then they might have made it for all of us. I don't want to do that. It's too much trouble. Let's just say it's okay.
　Hey, which one of you guys wants to help me unpack? I've got a lot of heavy furniture to unpack. I'm the only man in the house. I have to show them that they can be counted on once in a while.
　But then I saw Else using the Boost to move the heavy furniture quickly. Are? Don't I need...?
　d*mn, I can't lose. It's the willpower of a man. I also used the "boost" and began to move the furniture in with the same momentum.


　After we finished moving the furniture in, we decided to take a break and gather on the terrace for a cup of tea.
　We finished moving the furniture into our rooms, the living room, kitchen, reception room, and other main rooms. The only thing left to do now is to organize the clothes and books we brought with us.
　I carried the furniture as if I were fighting with Else using "Boost", but the battle went up to Else. It is a non-attribute magic "boost" that boosts your physical ability several times, but in the end, your original physical ability is what matters when you are using the same magic.
　It's a shameful story about the physical strength of losing to a girl... let's train a bit more...
　

''You've finally calmed down,''
There are still a lot of little things that I need to buy, that I have to buy, but...
...we'll buy a few of those and get them all together.
Well, that's it for today.

　It's true that there's still a shortage of small things. Dishes, detergent, and household items of the sort. Other things like bath tubs and... oh, are we short on cleaning supplies too? I'm sure they only brought a bucket or a rag or two. No trash cans or anything like that. There's a lot of stuff we need to buy.
　We'll discuss what we need and make a list of what we need. Let's get it all together later. While everyone was exchanging ideas like that, Lime came from the gate with a couple of men and women.

''Sir, these are the people I just spoke with. Their identities are solid, so could you please hire them?

　I still don't fit in with my husband.... Can't I make him change the name somehow? I feel very old when I am called "Master". I think it won't suit me until it's at least ten years later...

I'm Lapis, I'm from the Maid's Guild. It's nice to meet you.
I'm Cecil, also from the Maids Guild. It's nice to meet you~

　Two people in maid's clothes bow in front of me. Lapidus is the one with a black bob cut and a serious look, and Cecil is the one with light brown hair and a cheery smile. Both of them are around 20 years old. Both of them are dressed in maid's uniform and have the usual white blimp on their heads.
　But still, I didn't know there was such a thing as a maid's guild... The maids have undergone rigorous background checks and training, and are said to be highly valued by the guild.
　They are said to be able to clean and maintain the house under Lime's care.

''My name is Julio, the gardener. This is my wife, Claire.''
I'm Claire. I'm the cook.

　The next people who greeted me were a couple in their late twenties.
　A good-natured-looking blond young man and a good-looking red-haired woman. It's a similar couple. Both of them seem to be taking it easy.
　Julio is the son of Lime's friend. I'll have him do everything from flower care to vegetable gardening. His wife, Claire, is our personal cook and prepares our meals.
　She has been training as an apprentice cook for a nobleman in the capital. Next time, I'll show you the recipe book that I gave to Micah.

I'm Thomas. I'm Thomas. I was an ex-Royalist heavy infantryman.
Huck. Formerly with the Royal Light Cavalry.

　Oh, heavy and light. The body shape is the same. Both of them are in their 50s. I've heard that both of them recently retired from the Kingdom Knights, and Lime said that he asked for them. It's a good idea to have a good time with them. I've heard that they will also guard the gate at night, so maybe they will take turns.
　If so, wouldn't that be hard for two people to do? Should we hire one or two more people? Well, I'll leave that part up to Mr. Lime.
　But still, Thomas and Huck...Tom and Huck? I must have been a prankster boy when I was a kid.
　I had no complaints, so I did what Mr. Lime said about hiring them.

'Thomas and Huck have a home in King's Landing, so they will be commuting. The other four and I would like to live here, if that's alright with you?

　Lime's offer was accepted by me. We have plenty of room, so there's nothing to worry about.
　Since Julio and Claire are married, they only need one room, but in that case, we've decided to have them live apart from each other. Even though it's a detached house, it's a sufficient house for the world I used to live in. I want them to cherish their time together as a couple.
　I will give each of them money for their own preparations and ask them to buy everything they need. I gave more money to Lapidus and Claire, and asked them to buy the sundries I listed earlier for Lapidus, and asked Claire to stock up on food and cooking utensils.
　Soon everyone else went out to shop, but Mr. Lime went into the house to inspect the mansion. Since he works here, he wants to make sure every detail is in order himself. I'm really impressed.

It just keeps getting better and better.

I haven't even gotten used to the house yet, and now I have seven more servants. Will they be able to handle the money and such? I have the money the king gave me, so I'm sure I'll be fine for a while.
　Well, there's no point in worrying about it.

If we leave it to Grandfather, there will be no problem. It's not like your father has been serving you since you were a child.
I never thought I'd end up hiring the king's steward.
That's how much he expected Fuyao-san to be there.

　Yumina drinks her tea with a look of course. That's another pressure........

".........But we can't manage it on our own anyway.......and I'm honestly grateful to have a competent butler to help us out.

　Linse murmurs as she gives the cookies laid out on the table to Amber, who lies on her lap. You're right. You're going to have to take care of a lot of things from now on, right?

　Hmm? I heard a carriage stop at the gate. Had the maids, Lapis and the others, come back? You asked for a carriage because you had a lot of luggage.
　As I was thinking about that, Lime-san came over here from the back of the mansion.

''Master, His Royal Highness Duke Ortlinde and Lady Soushi are here.
What, the Duke and Sue?

　This is the first official guest of the house. Well, what can I do for you?
