The First Mission

After the people from the agency left.

Xi Shenlian turned to Ye Qisao and her two sisters, who were waiting for his instructions, and asked:

"Since you've lived in Sakura District for many years, you must know the best places to buy furniture and daily necessities around here, right?"

Ye Qisao respectfully replied:

"Yes!"

"And we have high-level memberships to various luxury stores. Even after leaving the Sixteen Nights Family, our memberships were not canceled, and we can still have them deliver anything directly to a designated location."

Xi Shenlian was even more pleased:

"Excellent."

The reason he chose Ye Qisao, Ye Qishi, and Ye Qili, the three sisters, as his maids was only partly due to their appearance.

There were deeper considerations.

For example, the three of them were essentially local experts in Sakura District, very knowledgeable about many things ordinary people wouldn't know.

Another example, as members of a prominent family, they possessed a certain depth, a foundation from their family, and knowledge only understood by the noble class.

These were all things Xi Shenlian needed.

At this moment.

He casually pinched his hand in mid-air, and a Super Card bank card appeared in his hand:

"I'll give you your first official task now."

Xi Shenlian's other hand pointed to the various items in the room.

"The sofa, chairs, wine collection, beds... I need you to replace all of these. Replace them with brand new, the best ones."

With that said.

He flicked the Super Card in his hand as if dealing playing cards, tossing it to Ye Qisao.

After she caught the flying object in mid-air.

Facing the Super Card given by Xi Shenlian.

She took a simple glance and understood what kind of bank card it was.

Taking a deep breath.

She confirmed:

"Do all the furniture and decorations need to be replaced?"

Although she had only taken a cursory look at the living room, she was certain that the combined value of everything in the room was easily over a hundred million Yen, and most of it was quite new, with almost no signs of use.

"Yes, replace everything."

Xi Shenlian answered again, his tone very firm.

"I bought this house yesterday. Everything inside is just the original furnishings that have been displayed for a long time. Although they look new, they've essentially been used and touched by countless potential buyers. I don't like treating things others have used as my own, so let's just replace everything in this house."

"As for where the replaced items go, I don't care."

"I'm fine with you selling them for money."

"Also, on the rooftop, besides a 600-square-meter outdoor swimming pool, there's a small garden of about 2,000 square meters. You can replace and handle the plants and decorations there as you see fit. You three know about gardening, right? So use your expertise and make it look nice..."

Listening to Xi Shenlian's words, spoken so casually without any concern for the cost.

Ye Qisao exchanged glances with her two sisters and understood one thing.

Their new employer was somewhat capricious.

Then, she replied with a hint of helplessness:

"In that case, do you have any preferred styles for the overall decoration?"

Xi Shenlian stated directly:

"No."

"As long as it looks good and is comfortable."

"Alright... I think this will take a few days. During this time, please do not stay here."

An indoor area of over two thousand square meters, with dozens of rooms of various sizes, all requiring replacement of furniture and decorations.

Plus the rooftop garden with all sorts of plants that need tending...

It had to be said.

The task was indeed a bit troublesome.

"Certainly. I'll be staying at a five-star hotel not far from here for the next few days, and I'll book rooms for you as well."

The three sisters, Ye Qisao, replied:

"Understood."

At this point.

Xi Shenlian stood up and said:

"It's almost noon now."

"Well then, let's go eat something together first~"

"Consider it a get-to-know-you meal for everyone's first meeting~"

"Do you have any particular food preferences?"

Ye Qishi, one of the three, replied:

"Anything is fine, regular food is okay."

Compared to her elder sister's gentleness, her voice was even more clear and crisp.

Then, she added apologetically:

"As maids, it is my dereliction of duty to not be able to prepare food for our employer. Please forgive us."

Xi Shenlian waved his hand casually:

"It's fine, it's only the first day."

Following that.

The three sisters fell silent and began to ponder in their hearts, resolving to observe Xi Shenlian's various dining habits during the meal.

His preferred tastes.

His favorite dishes.

As professional maids.

It would be quite impolite if they didn't even know their employer's dining preferences.

Then.

They discovered something.

Xi Shenlian had a great appetite.

Or rather, his appetite was a bit too great.

He would eat anything that was served to him, without regard for whether it was raw or cold.

It was impossible to tell what Xi Shenlian's food preferences were.

And then.

They discovered that his situation was far beyond just having a "great appetite"...

It was completely abnormal!

No matter how much he ate.

His stomach did not bulge.

He even casually chewed and ate his dining knife while waiting for new food to be served.

Watching the chefs, who were sweating profusely and seemed to be trying to feed a black hole.

'...'

While feeling somewhat speechless, the three sisters simultaneously thought with shared understanding:

'...It seems preparing food for him every day will be a very tiring physical task...'

However.

All three were skilled martial artists, so this level of physical activity was not a problem for them.

They could just treat it as exercise.

What made them more curious was Xi Shenlian's stomach, which didn't bulge at all.

Was it some kind of giant furnace...

How could he eat so much without any reaction?

As the eldest of the three.

Ye Qisao calmly mused inwardly:

'Awakened individuals are truly peculiar...'

Originally.

She had thought Xi Shenlian's unusual pupils were due to special colored contact lenses, but he had silently proven with his incredible appetite that his abnormal pupils were real, belonging to some inherent physical characteristic of an Awakened.

Facing the fact that their new employer was an Awakened.

Although the three sisters were very curious, they did not ask any further questions.

They had already encountered some Awakened individuals when they were maids at the Sixteen Nights Family.
