After seeing Lisa off, I turned around. I noticed Charles was already staring at me. Had he been staring at me this whole time?
“Will you have trouble getting to my home?”
“Oh no. I came with my dragon Colette. She is probably sleeping. Tomorrow morning…”
“We have prepared “feet” for your companion so they can rest while we travel.”
“Feet?”
“Please look outside.”
I did as Charles said and with lingering doubts. As I looked out the window I noticed something.
Directly behind Charles’ carriage was a huge cart of some sort. The platform was very large, and the wheels supporting it were just as big.
This type of carriage was usually pulled by horses but there were about 12 people standing at the ready behind in front of the carriage. It looked like the carriage was built to have people pushing it and pulling it to move it.
“What is that?”
“If would like to know how we can travel, please come this way.”
“This was made for dragons to ride on?”
“Yes.”
Charles nodded with an amicable smile on his face.
“For a dragon?”
“We understand that dragons are very important to you Mr. Larose. If that is the case, we would like to express our gratitude in this way as well.”
“I see…”
It seemed he was more of an influential person than what the eyes suggested. They wouldn’t neglect Colette because I am a “Dragon First” and she was the dragon that I brought with me. Compared to the dishonest answer of, “I also like dragons hahaha” it was more believable.
“…understood. We will be in your hands then.”
“Thank you very much. Please…”
Charles once again bowed and then moved out of the way of the open door. I stepped out, walked down the corridor, and went down the stairs. The noise attracted the attention of the guests. They peaked their heads out to stare curiously as we passed. When we went down the stairs into the bar, we also attracted the attention of the drinking patrons.
I turned to the counter and went over to the shopkeeper.
“I apologize for this shopkeeper, but I have to check out early.”
“Oh. Don’t worry about it.”
It seemed that the understanding shopkeeper was also taken in by Charles’ presence. On the other side, where the dragon rooms connected to the bar a commotion had erupted, and Colette poked her face in.
“What’s the matter?”
“We are going to go to a different place. Is that alright?”
“I am also going?”
“Yep.”
“Then that is fine.” Colette nodded, and together we walked out.
“Colette, they brought you this to ride.”
“Me? That is giving me a bad feeling. Couldn’t this be some sort of trick?”
“It’s probably fine.”
“Probably you say…”
“If anything were to happen to you, I would protect you. So, there is nothing to worry about.”
“O-Oh.” Colette was taken aback and was not prepared to show anything but a tired face, so she looked away.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
With that, Colette agreed to ride the Palanquin-like structure that was prepared by Charles. Meanwhile, I looked at the cart. There were no decorations on it, and it looked as if it was made in a hurry. I was sure it was made just for this occasion.
“This way please, Mr. Larose.”
Charles stepped out of the inn after me and offered me a ride in his carriage.
“Sure.” I nodded and got into the carriage.
“Can you believe it?! He is riding in the carriage of Charles Cevert.”
“Charles Cevert even let him get in first.”
“Who in the world is that man? The one that Charles Cevert is so grateful to.”
We climbed into the carriage, and while we waited to depart, there was quite a commotion. Charles must be a very influential and powerful person. The reaction around me proved that much. The carriage led the procession, and the cart followed behind. I wondered how far we would go but the trip lasted less than five minutes.
“Here we are.”
“You are in the same area as the post town?”
“Yes.”
I stepped out of the carriage and looked at the building in front of me. The surrounding buildings were mostly ordinary bars and inns, therefore it stood out. It had the look of an aristocratic family’s home.
“There can be such a building even in a post town?”
“I rented it, I wondered if long travel would interrupt your rest.”
“I see…what about the dragon?”
“We have prepared the annex for the dragon.”
“…You remodeled it?”
“Yes.”
I was speechless. Could it be that he was spending a lot of money?
“So…”
“Yes?”
“What’s the verdict. Should I go there?” Colette asked then waited for my decision.
I started to think about it but then decided there was no need to think about it.
“Yes, you can get a good night’s rest there Colette.”
“Understood.”
“I leave it to you.” I said to Charles.
Charles nodded, then signaled to the servant who waited for orders close by. The servant signaled to the men carrying the cart to carry Colette in the direction of the annex.
After I watched them leave, Charles and I entered the mansion.
“Woah.”
The moment I entered I was shocked. In the entranceway there was a lobby and lined up on each side were a line of maids. There were about 50 of them in total.
“Please come in.”
Charles encouraged me with an amicable smile. I hesitated then continued forward. Before me was the line of maids on both sides. As I passed each maid bowed in turn.
Going further, the maid one step ahead of me bowed. It was like a domino effect. As I proceeded each maid dropped their head into a bow.
“Please come this way.” Charles said as he led the way.
To my surprise, the maids didn’t even react when Charles passed before me and continued to bow to me like dominos as I passed.
This is amazing. Charles came all the way to bring me here in a carriage no less. And then this line of maid dominos. I felt I was the greatest at this moment in my life. Naturally, this made me feel like I had to do my utmost best on this job.
“…I see.”
“What is the matter?”
“No, it’s nothing.”
Even though I said that I was secretly impressed. I was impressed by Charles’ way of doing things.
If I looked at it this way this was a prepaid bonus. Pay first so the person feels motivated. It is a good method. I didn’t understand before that it could be done this way. I should remember this. I wanted to learn all that I could.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
