"Edwon, lead the way. I want to see this mansion!" Abel did not hold back.
This was the best time for Abel to get to know Steward Edwon. If Steward Edwon behaved well, Abel would let him stay. Of course, Steward Edwon knew this very well.
The mansion was very luxurious. As soon as Abel entered the mansion, he saw the ground was polished like a mirror. It was all done by hand, so you could imagine how long it took to polish it to this degree.
"Mr. Abel, this mansion is a vacation mansion for the Kingdom of St Pierrt. Everything inside was built according to the standards of the Kingdom of St Pierrt. The decorations were also done according to the standards of the Kingdom of St Pierrt!" Steward Edwon bowed and explained.
Abel did not say anything. He saw the reliefs on the walls and couldn't help but admire them in his heart. These reliefs were very well made. It was definitely the work of a master. He had studied carving before, so he was very good at it.
The huge floor-to-ceiling window, which was several meters high, and the thin, pure and transparent surface made of crystal on the window didn't have the usual colorful embellishments of a church. This made the entire hall look very clean. The sunlight passed through the transparent crystal and sprinkled onto the floor of the hall through the fine gauze curtains, turning into a gentle light that wasn't dazzling but was very bright.
On top of the hall, there was a picture of how the ancestors of the Kingdom of St Pierrt fought. It didn't mean anything to Abel, but it was a rare piece of art just by looking at the skill of the drawing.
The mansion had a hall, a dining room, a meeting room, a master room, and 8 guest rooms. The kitchen and servants' rooms were all next to the mansion.
Every detail, even the tableware, was exclusive to the Kingdom of St Pierrt. Before the mansion was handed over to Abel, the Kingdom of St Pierrt had kept everything for him. They only took away some royal symbols and some personal portraits. However, according to Steward Edwon's explanation, those personal portraits had been replaced with more valuable paintings.
What surprised Abel the most was the fact that there was a water source here. The main building was completely made of white stones. There were hidden holes and medium defensive circles. This mansion could be turned into a fortress at any time.
Abel's attention was drawn to the bathtub beside the master bedroom. The bathtub was filled with water, and the temperature was maintained through a heating array. This bathtub would have been quite good even in his previous world.
This was the most luxurious villa Abel had ever seen. Elven villas might be more beautiful, but villas designed by humans were more suitable for humans to live in.
"Steward Edwon, I'm very happy with this place!" Abel said to Steward Edwon, who was right behind him.
It was just that when he called Steward Edwon, he added the word 'steward' to his name. This meant that he had recognized this steward. This made Steward Edwon very happy. After all, a steward who had been sent out of the royal palace couldn't go back.
Although Steward Edwon didn't know who Mr. Abel was, he knew that for the Kingdom of St Pierrt to give such a big gift, Mr. Abel's status must be very high.
"Master, I will be loyal to you for the rest of my life!" Steward Edwon kneeled down and said.
"I, Abel Harry, accept your loyalty!" Said Abel with a smile. He then helped Steward Edwon up and introduced him, "This is Bartoli, she is my head steward!"
Steward Edwon's eyes tightened. He had just noticed the intermediate wizard badge on Bartoli's chest. Although he had guessed Bartoli's identity, he never expected an intermediate wizard to be Abel's head steward.
By that point, he no longer had any complaints about being sent out of the royal palace. If an intermediate wizard could become Abel's steward, there was no reason for him to complain. It was his honor to be Abel's steward!
"Bartoli, you will be very busy in the next few days. Recruit some people and fill up the 27 shops. You also need to train them. It will take up too much of your time!" Abel felt a little helpless. No matter if it was the speed of earning credit points or getting another business for his family, he just couldn't reject the idea of expanding his restaurant.
"Master, don't worry, I will not slack off on my daily meditation!" Bartoli said with a bow.
"How about this, I will set up an intermediate mana gathering circle here. Also, before I enter the Dark World, I will give you 2 sets of fresh blue crystal cores to speed up your training!" Abel said with a wave of his hand.
Bartoli couldn't go back to the Dark World with Abel. The intermediate mana gathering circle in the Dark World was the pinnacle of mana, and she couldn't enjoy it. Before, she could only use the beginner mana gathering circle to meditate in the Holy Continent.
The effect of this kind of meditation was not very good. It was almost impossible to feel the improvement every time she meditated. However, things were different now. Abel had enough credit points, so buying an intermediate mana gathering circle was a piece of cake.
Abel didn't lack gems. He had as many gems as he wanted, no matter what rank they were. However, he couldn't afford to buy an intermediate mana gathering circle like this. No matter where he went, a magic circle of this level was a strategic resource. No matter how many gold coins he had, he couldn't buy one.
Bartoli went to the Wizard Union and spent 20,000 credit points to buy an intermediate mana gathering circle. Abel set it up in the meeting room. He didn't need the meeting room right now, so he used it as a meditation room for Bartoli.
Abel couldn't set up an intermediate mana gathering circle in his small yard. Not only was the space not big enough, but the mana would also spread out. Not all of his neighbors were wizards.
Now that he had enough space in his mansion, he could turn on the intermediate protection circle in the main building at night. As long as he didn't break it, he wouldn't be able to hurt Bartoli. At the same time, Bartoli could use the intermediate mana gathering circle and the blue crystal core to meditate.
As for whether steward Edwon was loyal or not, Abel didn't care. He wouldn't reveal the core secrets to steward Edwon. Steward Edwon's mission was to take good care of the mansion.
The Kingdom of St Pierrt's construction team started working on the 27 ruins of Liante City at the same time. A large amount of precious materials were transported into the city.
The people who lived near the ruins would find that new buildings were being built at an extraordinary speed every day. Regardless of the cost, the workers could rest, but the construction site could not. The construction was carried out 24 hours a day, so the ruins became brand new buildings in just a few days.
The interior of the building was also being renovated at the same time. If it wasn't for the rule that a hotel could not exceed 2 floors, the Kingdom of St Pierrt might have just built an even taller hotel without caring about the cost.
On the 8th day, all the renovations were completed. The Kingdom of St Pierrt had shown the power of their empire. They had finished 2 days earlier than Wizard Arche's estimated 10 days.
During these 8 days, a recruitment announcement had set the entire Liante City abuzz. The conditions for this job were way beyond normal positions. Manager, chef, and waiter. The salary for these 3 positions was almost double that of the same industry. Not only that, but there was also an extra clause that said you could enjoy the food in the restaurant for free once a day.
Perhaps for those who didn't know, the double salary was a very good condition, but for those who knew the inside story, it was a huge privilege to enjoy the food for free once a day.
Some beginner wizards also signed up, but since they didn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble, Bartoli rejected them. The conditions were good, and the job wasn't too difficult. Therefore, she quickly recruited all the people she needed.
