Power of Creation

Chapter 50

Im sorry, sir, what kind of property do you want? The lanky gentleman asks.

A big one. I declare, Enough to house about twenty maybe thirty bitches.

Only thirty? Grimhilde responds wryly.

You think thirty is too few? Maybe Im too greedy expecting you each to get your own room. How about I make a bitch barracks.

I dont even know how to respond to that.

Anyway I turned back to the man, Id like a small mansion. Anything will do. Ill just change what I dont like about it.

Well, Riun is not that large of a village. There is only one manor that fits the size of being called a Mansion. That would be the manor of Lord Rhysemen, the only lord this far out from the human realm.

His will do.

Im sorry sir, but his

Just at that moment, a short fat man pushes his way into the room and then whispers something to the property seller. The mans face turns wooden as he gives me an odd look.

What is it? I ask.

I hadnt cast any spells or anything, so this was totally random.

It seems like it is your lucky day. The lord passed away last night. He committed suicide, it seems.

Really? Ahem I mean so sad. I tried to keep the excitement out of my voice.

In the cases of lords, there is usually a next of kin who will inherit the property. However, The news of their death and then finding the time to come out here, it will likely be months if not years before the noble will show up. At that time, theyll be eager to sell the place. We are permitted to offer the mansion to a house sitter like you. As long as you maintain the property, you can stay there for a discounted rate.

Is that so?

So, I wouldnt own the property until the noble sold it to me. Still, it seemed like the only way I was going to get my girls in a mansion tonight. The alternative was to just find a plot of land and build it from nothing, but this would certainly create questions in town.

In that case, please sign us up. I smiled and when he put down the key I handed it to the maids. Ah, you four, go start doing your job and clean up the place.

You bast- mmm One of the maid girls tried to curse but the others grabbed her mouth and nodded.

Id have to fix their bad attitudes sometime soon. Maybe Id need to find a butler. Someone named Sebastian, perhaps. Hed have to old though, and not interested in women.

There turns out to be a lot of paperwork. I thought about just waving my hand and making to all finished, but I really am a stickler for reading contracts I sign and didnt want to end up signing something I didnt agree with.

As Im reading through the documents, I notice that the former Lord had a strange clause involving hiring maids onto his staff. They had to be young and beautiful. We seemed to have similar tastes, I guess.

After signing everything, the girls are all sleepy and it was turning the evening. I gathered them all up and began heading back to the mansion.

I use my hub map to guide myself to the mansion. I have yet to see it, but if I didnt like the look of the mansion, I would have just changed it, anyway. Perhaps I could make the four maids do all the reconstruction themselves naked. Ah, I'm not a cruel person, so I suppress the sadistic smile on my face before the other girls notice.

However, that smile turns into a frown as I finally approach my new home. Four shivering, identical girls were standing outside the mansion at the closed-off gate. The mansion itself was dark, and even from here I could see cobwebs in some windows. I had even gone out of my way to give the baka maids more time, and here they are slacking off on the job.

I give them a dark look, expecting them to show a little regret and remorse, however, as soon as their eyes meet mine, they all burst into tears. The four girls leap at me, holding me on every side as they start sobbing. Well, I dont particularly hate this kind of attention either. Bell was shooting me jealous looks, at least. The other girls merely looked confused and concerned.

What happened, why arent you cleaning? I tried to smooth out my voice for the baka maids.

Boss! Th-the-the place is haunted.

It was a ghost, Boss! Ghosts are scary!

Th-they attacked me!

Boss, they threw us out of the house!

The four girls all whine at once, sobbing over each other, but I'm fortunately able to get the gist of it. I was told this place was haunted after all. This ghost who is interrupting my pleasant night is going to pay.
