In the bustling imperial capital, there was a place like this.

Hidden among the forest of towering buildings, it seemed to isolate itself from the entire capital in an instant, leaving it quiet and secluded.

This was not accomplished through any kind of magic. It was simply the result of making clever use of space during its design.

Mottled walls, scattered sunlight, and a cool breeze.

This was the inn recommended by the guidebook: Rose Mansion.

Strangely enough, Rose Mansion actually occupied quite a large area, yet it gave people the feeling that if they were not paying attention, they might miss it amid the bustling streets.

A maid whose bangs nearly covered her eyes was holding a broom and leaning against the steps in front of the door, seemingly having fallen asleep.

The mansion's signboard looked rather old as well... Faintly, several traces of insect damage could still be seen.

"Hello!"

Nan Xiaonan walked straight up to the dozing Maid and called out.

The reason she had taken the initiative was... her status was the lowest.

Although Miss You Ye always claimed to be a maid, Nan Xiaonan did not believe that nonsense at all. This Maid Miss clearly looked like the bad-guy type.

However, the dozing Maid at the entrance seemed not to have heard her. Nan Xiaonan had no choice but to gently pat her on the shoulder.

But she had not expected that with just that gentle pat, the Maid would fall straight down from the steps.

Nan Xiaonan: "???"

When did I become this strong??

At Boss Luo's urging, Nan Xiaonan helped this Maid into Rose Mansion's lobby and placed her on a nearby sofa.

The Maid had actually fainted... The cause was unknown.

There were no guests at the inn at this time.
