Nero, The Legendary Hunter

The food served was a hotpot, prepared with a boiling pot of soup broth on the dining table, containing a variety of foods and ingredients.

The main meat was a level 50 wild ox. Elsa had to prepare it, as few are able to purify meat at such a high level.

Even the prawns were slightly above level 20, almost level 30.

It was a luxury that even the best restaurants in the empire could not so easily provide.

Jingu looked at the sumptuous breakfast on the dining table and thought for a while before muttering:

"Wow! It looks so tasty, degozaru~" Jingu started to salivate.

Honda next to her wanted to mock her, however, she was salivating herself, the smell alone was too seductive!

"No ceremony, there's a lot, eat to your heart's content." It was rare for Elsa to smile, and at that moment her smile was so beautiful, even the succulent food couldn't make them look away from her. It wasn't until she stopped smiling that they turned their attention to their food and started grabbing what they wanted to eat.

Elsa was very generous, she even gave a generous piece of meat to the house servants to share and eat later.

The one responsible for dividing them between them was the chef. He didn't dare split it wrong, since the mistress was so generous, being greedy will do more harm than good.

So far it seemed like their dream job, none of them wanted to get fired.

Cintia was the one who was most excited. To have such a privilege was a gift. She might even manage to get stronger by eating that kind of meat. There is even a small chance of being able to learn a skill if the meat is prepared well. 'I'm so lucky...!'

Her brown eyes sparkled.

The adults around the kitchen laughed. Everyone was happy, and they also knew about Cintia's situation. So young and hardworking, he couldn't help but like her.

Of course, she was very lucky mostly, because the servants chosen to work at the mansion this time were handpicked by Elsa. As her little sister would go to school and stay there for a long time, she wanted good people to be around. If any of them tried to act in bad faith, she wouldn't hesitate to fire whoever it was.

"Elsa... Big Sister." Nero set the glass down on the table. Her eyes blinked, her lips closing tightly, a smile formed: "Celina said there's a festival later in the nearest town, how about we all go there?"

Everyone looked at Elsa, who said: "We can go, but don't be idle, I still don't know what Eliane is up to."

It was normal for Elsa to worry. She noticed Eliane's influence a long time ago. Not only that, it looks like there was some expert with her, if Elsa isn't cautious enough, something could happen to Nero and her friends.

"Yea!" Everyone agreed.

It was no surprise to them that Nero's middle sister wanted to harm her. Choko next to Nero sympathizes with this, she even had a sister who hates her deeply without any logic.

.

It is not wrong to say that they were very beautiful.

Elsa and the rest were well dressed as they prepared to head to town to celebrate the festival.

The girls wore dresses that weren't too revealing, a little sexy, but at the same time discreet and elegant, while the boys, Breno, wore a dark green yukata, and Jair wore dark gray pants and a long-sleeved shirt with a light blue button.

"They're all very pretty~" Nero sized them up as if she were a director evaluating her models who were about to step onto the catwalk.

Seeing her act like that, Choko and the rest laughed.

Even Elsa who hardly laughed ended up laughing a little.

Although it was forbidden to fly in the Empire, it was allowed to use land transport.

In front of them was a glamorous carriage. The design was quaint, big enough for them all to ride in the carriage. There were four seats in total, each seat, it was possible for 3 people to sit together. One in each bottom corner, while in the middle, there were two facing back to each other.

The carriage's color was essentially black, but detailed in white gold. The wheels had the same system as a modern car from Nero's past life, with shock absorbers, which made her think it would be pleasant to ride.

Before they could admire any longer, they heard Elsa's voice.

"Come in." She said.

Upon entering, they noticed that the upholstery of the seats was as soft as velvet and very pleasant to the touch.

Elsa went to the front to drive the carriage.

Instead of horses, what pulled the carriage was actually winged-horse-looking puppets. The color was black with a pair of very large wings drooping down the sides; like feather blankets.

The servants of the mansion saw this scene near the door, their eyes were full of wonder.

It wasn't as if it was unusual to have a carriage passing through the Empire, however, they had never seen one so sophisticated and with such realistic puppets appearing to be alive pulling the carriage.

As the carriage moved, it barely swayed. The credits didn't all go to the carriage itself, but also to the road, which was very well made. Even after leaving the grounds of the mansion's property, the road was not bumpy, being quite symmetrical, in a very short time, they had already arrived in front of the temple where the festival was taking place.

"Mistress, they have appeared, as you expected."

Through a magical device of long-distance communication, a discreet-looking man said in a low voice.

Hearing this, the woman who was called 'mistress' chuckled a little, her laugh was not at all charming, but rather full of cruelty, sending ghastly shivers down the spine of whoever heard it.

"That is great." She said in a cheerful tone, "Go with the plan, split them up, and then... Well, I want to see if this bitch escapes this time!"
