Chapter 49

The Lakeside Villa

โ€œLuria? Whatโ€™s that stick?โ€

โ€œA cool stick.โ€

โ€œโ€ฆIt doesnโ€™t have any insect eggs on it, does it?โ€

โ€œNope.โ€

โ€œThen itโ€™s fine.โ€

After receiving my motherโ€™s permission to keep the stick, I held it as I entered the secondary residence.

It was said to have been years since anyone had used it, yet the place was immaculately clean.

โ€œHas someone been cleaning it every day?โ€

โ€œYes. Although the caretaker is currently away to avoid catching the red fever.โ€

โ€œI see.โ€

โ€œNow then, Luria, Sara, come here.โ€

โ€œGot it.โ€ โ€œโ€ฆAlright.โ€

My mother moved briskly forward with the maid, and Sara, Dau, and I followed behind. Carro  was perched on my shoulder.

After walking for a bit, my mother and the maid entered a room.

We followed them in and found ourselves in what appeared to be a study and lounge combined.

The walls were lined with bookshelves filled with books. There were desks, chairs, and a long sofa as well.

โ€œIโ€™ll prepare some tea.โ€

โ€œThank you. Please do.โ€

The maid went into the adjacent room, where it seemed tea-making facilities were located.

โ€œLuria, put the stick on the floor. Itโ€™s improper to carry it around indoors.โ€

โ€œOkay.โ€

Not wanting to risk losing my beloved stick, I obediently leaned it against a chair.

โ€œNow, Luria, Sara, thereโ€™s nothing to worry about.โ€

โ€œIโ€™m not worried.โ€ โ€œYes.โ€

โ€œThat said, things will be a bit different from usual. The servants are busy with security and maintaining communication with the main estate. Thereโ€™s only one maid to handle your daily needs.โ€

She gazed gently at Sara and me as she spoke.

โ€œGot it. Weโ€™ll have to manage on our own a bit, huh?โ€

โ€œExactly. But since none of usโ€”myself, Luria, or Saraโ€”are used to this, weโ€™ll all need to try our best.โ€

โ€œLuria can do it!โ€

โ€œThatโ€™s wonderful to hear. โ€ฆThe key is to minimize the maidโ€™s workload. You understand, donโ€™t you?โ€

โ€œYes.โ€ โ€œUnderstood.โ€

Dau and Carro  also listened attentively, their expressions serious.

โ€œStill, youโ€™re children, so donโ€™t overthink it.โ€

โ€œGot it!โ€ โ€œYes!โ€ โ€œWoof woof!โ€ โ€œKyuu!โ€

Dau and Carro  enthusiastically barked their agreement.

โ€œYou donโ€™t need to concern yourselves so muchโ€ฆโ€

The maid returned with the tea and a tray of sweets.

โ€œYoung ladies, please enjoy some sweets as well.โ€

โ€œThank you! Sara, have some too.โ€

โ€œThank you.โ€

Sara carefully took the sweets with both hands, nibbling on them like a little bird.

โ€œHmm-hmm.โ€

Dau rested his large head on the table, clearly signaling his desire for a treat.

โ€œPeep.โ€

Dau let out a pitiful sound, pleading.

โ€œAlright, alright.โ€

I broke my portion of the sweets in half and gave him some.

โ€œWoof!โ€

Dau devoured it instantly, wagging his tail in delight.

โ€œโ€ฆKyuu.โ€

Carro  hopped down from my shoulder onto the table, staring at me with eyes that clearly said, Youโ€™ll give me some too, right?

โ€œAlright, alright.โ€

I shared some of my sweets with Carro  as well.

โ€œKyuu kyuu!โ€

Carro  held the sweets with his tiny hands and nibbled on them, looking much like Sara.

โ€œIs it tasty?โ€

โ€œWoof!โ€ โ€œKyuu!โ€

โ€œItโ€™s delicious. Ehehe.โ€

Sara let out a cute little laugh, her joy audible.

As we enjoyed the sweets, the maid declared confidently,

โ€œPlease leave everything to me. Even with just me here, Iโ€™ll ensure you feel no inconvenience!โ€

โ€œMy, donโ€™t overextend yourself.โ€

The maid seemed to have her own sense of pride.

Still, I thought, tasks like tidying up toys and changing clothes should be things we handle ourselves.

As I swung my legs, they bumped into the stick leaning against the chair.

โ€œOh, Sara! Letโ€™s go exploring!โ€

The stick reminded me of the staff an adventurer might carry.

โ€œExploring?โ€

โ€œYep. Letโ€™s figure out whatโ€™s where! Mother, is that okay?โ€

โ€œDonโ€™t go outside the mansion, alright?โ€

โ€œOf course!โ€

โ€œAnd you mustnโ€™t leave through the windows either, understood?โ€

โ€œO-Of course not.โ€

Iโ€™d climbed through the window earlier, so I was a bit startled. My mother couldnโ€™t have seen me, thoughโ€”it must have been a coincidence.

โ€œThere are also areas you mustnโ€™t enterโ€ฆโ€

โ€œWhere are thoseโ€ฆ?โ€

I was extremely curious.

โ€œWell, itโ€™s easier to show than explain.โ€

โ€œHmm?โ€

โ€œListen, if the attendants say an area is off-limits, you mustnโ€™t go in.โ€

โ€œGot it!โ€

โ€œGood. Dau, Carro , take care of Luria and Sara.โ€

โ€œWoof woof!โ€ โ€œKyuurr!โ€

With my motherโ€™s permission, I turned to Sara.

โ€œLetโ€™s go, Sara!โ€

โ€œAlright.โ€

Holding my stick in my right hand, I took Saraโ€™s hand in my left, and we left the room. Sara carried her stick-like doll in her free hand.

โ€œSara, this is our base.โ€

Standing just outside the room, I pointed at the lounge with my stick.

โ€œBase?โ€

โ€œYep. If we get separated or something happens, we meet back here.โ€

โ€œUnderstood.โ€

Establishing a base was essential for exploration. Iโ€™d read that in a book.

โ€œAlright! Letโ€™s go, Explorer Sara!โ€

โ€œExplorer?โ€

โ€œWeโ€™re an exploration team! And Iโ€™m the leader.โ€

โ€œGot it.โ€

Sara nodded seriously, her expression resolute.

โ€œDau and Carro  are team members too.โ€

โ€œWoof!โ€ โ€œKyuu!โ€

Chosen as members of the team, Dau and Carro  looked proud.

Taking the lead, I began walking through the mansion.

The mansion was two stories tall and seemed to be rectangular in shape overall.
