Master SSS-Class Magic Swordsman

Sold 003.

One hour after that, we arrived in a certain city.

The name of the city is Phoenician.

It is said that the city is currently in charge of the Phoenix family. It is said to be one of the five largest cities in the country.

“All ten families are in control of their own city. Heads of the family like me, at the same time, act as the mayor of the city. This country, Eugracia, is made up of 10 large cities, that is, the cities of 10 families.”

Not knowing much about the city of Eugracia, Wood replied quietly to Gareth, "Is that so?"

After a while, the carriage came to a complete stop.

The door opens from the outside of the luggage compartment. Previously, the Hunters had opened it.

“Alberto, drop Wood down.”

"Okay."

“No, I can get off by myself enough- Whoa…”

At Gareth's orders, Alberto carried the Wood on his side.

Wood grabbed the clothes he was holding.

I couldn't resist, and the sound was like a load being unloaded from the luggage compartment.

The sunlight, which I had only seen briefly an hour ago, was quite bright.

When I turned my head while being caught by Alberto, I saw a white wall.

A wide and endless wall.

It didn't take long for Wood to notice that it was 'part of the mansion'.

huge mansion.

It was a pure white, golden, passionate and lively mansion.

There was not only one mansion, but several outbuildings were spread out around the

To be honest, it looked more like a residential district than a mansion. You can't predict how far it will go.

While admiring the mansion, several footsteps were heard.

The number of people is probably around seven.

Wood realizes that it's not the sound of trained footsteps. A different weight from the hunters next door. Still, it is a fairly light, polite footstep sound.

When he raised his head while being caught by Alberto, there were maids there.

It is made up of various age groups, starting with Wood the same age.

But after a while, the maids' eyes widened.

What had been angled is momentarily disturbed.

Probably because of Gareth and Alberto who got off the luggage compartment.

A middle-aged woman, the oldest among the maids, came out.

Her age was reflected in her glasses and pale hair, and at the same time, she had considerable dignity beyond her age.

“Gares-sama!? Why are you coming out of there! What if I get off the freight wagon without dignity, the head of the family!!”

“Ah, ah, that is……”

“Alberto-sama! If Gareth-sama says he wants to ride the freight wagon, you have to dry it, are you riding with him in the meantime!? Dian's team, who was the escort there! What were you guys doing!”

“Yeah, that’s it!”

“No, no, Joan! We are that……!”

A middle-aged woman - Joan's words didn't seem too light for the Hunters, as well as Gareth and Alberto. Hunters were rushing to claim their innocence.

In an instant, everyone except Wood turned into an angry expression at the teacher.

Gareth's smirk broke in an instant.

“Uh-huh… Mi, I’m sorry, Joan. Because I brought the child I mentioned last time here…”

“Is it a child? ........Ah!"

Joan glanced at Alberto's words, belatedly seeing Wood caught in his arms.

Wood received Joan's sharp gaze with his whole body.

Even though he didn't say a word, he felt a tingling sensation in his gaze.

Different from pressure....

Yes, this is rigor.

“This is the child you were talking about.”

“As far as possible to other employees, please don’t let the story spread.”

“Okay, Gareth.”

As Joan turned his eyes, the five maids bowed their heads in an orderly manner.

It was like an answer to what Gareth had just said.

“Then please wait a moment. I'll prepare it right now, Gareth-sama."

Joan bowed his head to Gareth and hurried back.

Then, the maids who received an order from Joan moved to the mansion with a strong answer.

“Oh… how did it go for the cargo truck!”

“If it was Joan-sama, I wouldn’t have forgotten. Hasn't that been the case in the last 20 years? You will always come to scold me.”

“Alberto was often scolded together.”

“Thanks to you, every time I get scolded, I feel younger.”

At Alberto's dry joke, Gareth scratched the back of his neck and laughed awkwardly.

“Then it will take longer for the other teams to come back from the away team... Until then, everyone in the Dian team rest well. You really did a great job. And, like I said before, everything about this kid's inner story is silent."

"""Okay!"""

After giving Gareth and Alberto loud replies, Dian and his team of hunters hurriedly left.

The inside of the house was no less than the outside.

Red and reddish-brown wooden structure. A marble floor that sparkles like ice on the floor.

There was nothing that seemed worthless.

Then Gareth and Alberto entered a room. It seemed to be a room that served as a drawing room.

Wood was still being held captive.

Alberto immediately enters the room and puts Wood down.

Wood's crude feet stepped on the smooth wooden floor.

Just like the carriage, the luxury was transmitted just by stepping on it.

But Wood didn't have much time to enjoy the sensation.

smart.

“Mr Gareth. Ready.”

A light knocking sound followed by Joan's voice.

The door opened, and the five maids I had just seen with Joan came in—

Caught Wood.

"uh?!"

Soon after, the maids raised the wood in an instant.

“????”

“I wish you well~”

“““Yes, Gareth!”””

“Sleep, wait, what the hell are you doing?!”

“Of course not.”

Gareth said as if asking something obvious.

“You should wash it first.”

With those words, Wood was delivered to the bathroom as is.

Among the maids, the smallest girl follows up with Wood's clothes.

Upon arriving in the bathroom, the maids ripped off Wood's tattered clothes.

Hug your shoes. ruffle your top. ruffle your bottoms. ....the underwear is too loose.

And before Wood could resist, he plunged into a bathtub full of hot water and soap bubbles.

“Uhhhhhh!!”

From then on, the power of the maids unfolded. At first I tried to resist, but it didn't work in the middle.

“Bugrrrr-!”

A brush and towel rubbed hard enough to feel rough.

It's so tight that you can't even touch it without touching it.

Wood was washed so hard that he couldn't even feel the shame of being naked.

“I will clean it.”

“Raise your arm.”

“Please turn back.”

“Please close your eyes.”

“I’ll step up for a moment.”

“““Done. You worked hard!!”””

It was as if he had been restored to the Great Hall of Fame in the capital.

Though Wood never saw it.

Wood's body was completely different from the first dark light.

Glitter. it was puffy

Indeed, it must have been a completely different person.

I couldn't help it. Because it was Wood's first bath in three months.

On the contrary, an hour to wipe away all the dirt that had been standing there might be a fairly quick axis.

Moreover, although it was the first bath in three months, it wasn't that I took a straight bath three months ago.

Bathing in the bathtub is not permitted.

They are slaves to Dreamland, which is called the end of life.

There, unless you were a high-class prostitute, you had to see that there were very few such benefits.

The best thing to do is to get a towel soaked in water. The best thing to do is to wet it with hot water once a month or not.

One of the maids wiped Wood's head with a thin towel.

It was after the blood-stained hair that had been covered with her helmet had regained its original color.

dark blue hair.

Perhaps this is a fairly rare hair color in Eugracea.

“Now there are some characters!”

“Your skin color has become brighter!”

“Let me cut her hair too. I'll bring you some barber tools right away, Feria, too."

“Yes, yes!”

The girl with Wood's clothes-Feria followed her hurriedly other maids.

As she followed, she seemed to realize that she was not supposed to take her clothes with her.

She comes back and puts Wood's clothes on, and she disappears before her eyes again.

Maybe it was something she often did.

The maids looked at Peria like that, and each exchanged sighs or laughter.

After that, even her hair, which had grown wildly in her hustle and bustle, was cut off.

She immediately puts her new clothes on Wood.

No matter how much money it was made, the soft clothes covered Wood's body.

When all the work was done, the maids brought Wood back to the drawing room.

After saying good-bye, they all leave their seats.

A maid of the same age as Peria, it was noticeable that he was even one beat behind in greeting.

“I don’t know. It’s really neat!”

Seeing Wood's appearance, Gareth exclaimed in admiration. Sit on the sofa and give a light applause.

In the case of Alberto, it was dry, but he nodded his head slightly.

With those words, Wood also looked into the mirror in one of the parlors.

is a dislocation of the vertebrae.(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

To be honest, even Wood himself, confused as to who he was, was reflected in the mirror. The more I thought it was unrealistic.

What is the purpose of doing this?

It is not uncommon for nobles to buy slaves, treat them well, and then throw them away when they get bored.

Even in Dreamland, there were a lot of people who were dropped ‘twice’ like that.

After thinking that his life is finally getting better, he is driven to the end of his life again.

It must be the worst hobby among nobles.

However, it is also true that Gareth bought him for an unimaginable amount.

For what?

For what purpose are you going to adopt Wood at that price?

Wood raised his vigilance, preparing for the unexpected situation.

No matter how much he survives in Dreamland, if the two men in front of him make up their minds, Wood will be overpowered at once.

Positions may change at any time.

Wood doesn't want to believe everything with just lavish clothes and baths.

“There must be something else to talk about first.”

Did he know the boundaries of Wood?

Gareth continued the conversation with a relaxed smile.

No, seeing Gareth's eyes, Wood changed his mind.

This man notices Wood's boundaries on an old evening.

Behind the human-like smile, there was a clear understanding.

“You still don’t believe it?”

To that question, Wood couldn't answer right away.

In my mind, the answer has already ended with “Yes, Yes.”

Still, who in the world could say, “Yes, I honestly can’t believe it” in front of a great aristocrat.

Even as a 10-year-old Wood, he knows how to grasp the situation and his identity.

Alberto filled the teacup in front of Gareth with a cup of tea.

Gives Wood a look. Wood also intended to sit on the sofa.

As I sat down on the sofa, Alberto handed me a teacup filled with tea.

Perhaps it was because of the consideration of the young Wood, a sweet scent rises through the hot steam.

However, the taste of wood, which has already been dislocated for two years, may not be able to feel the taste.

“I wouldn’t believe it right away anyway. I saw you a year ago, but you saw me for the first time today. Trust comes from saving results. It is still too short for results to be saved between us.”

Gareth took a sip of tea.

“But no matter how unbelievable you may be, I intend to adopt you. No, actually, I already did.”

Wood widened his eyes at the word ‘already’.

Alberto received Gareth's words.

“Wood, when I bought you, the head of the family already went through the adoption process. In other words, both on paper and legally in Eugracia, you are already a member of Phoenix.”

“Well, there was some manipulation. That is nothing to worry about.”

Manipulation is about Wood's origins.

It is said that Wood, who was born in Dreamland and was a slave, could not contain the information as it was, and Wood became the son of a 'fallen family in another country'.

“Then let’s talk about what you’re most curious about – ‘What are you trying to do?’”
