The Mimic "Maid" (4,000 Words; Please Subscribe) (Continued)
"As for today's matter, just Natsuki-chan stay with me, so you don't need to worry."
"Oh dear, have you forgotten about me? I'm so sad."
The sound came from the direction of the entrance hall, and walking towards her was La Fria, who was already dressed and made up, followed by Angel, who opened the door for her.
"Stop fooling around, you haven't had breakfast yet, have you? Sit down!"
William, completely oblivious to La Freya's feigned grumbling, waved for her to sit down.
Yaze quickly brought over La Fria's breakfast.
La Freya, just like an actor in a Peking Opera face-changing act, immediately put on a happy expression and sat down at the dining table.
The midday sun was enormous, like the wheels of an oxcart, a brilliant red like molten iron, bursting forth with rays of light and radiating unbearable heat.
Luxury cars, which are rarely seen under normal circumstances, drove into the residential area one after another, leaving the security guards looking completely bewildered.
"Hey senior, what's going on today?!"
The young security guard looked at the senior employee who was soaking goji berries with a puzzled expression.
These cars entered without any registration whatsoever; the security in this residential area is extremely strict.
Their security personnel are all at the level of junior Attack Mage, and they need to register their credentials to enter and exit the community.
But today, just as he was about to stop two Rolls-Royce Phantoms, his usually stern and impartial senior grabbed him by the collar.
Then, with a smirk, he let the two luxury cars pass without even rolling down their windows.
"Young man, you don't understand! People whose names start with the letter A are not people we lowly security guards can afford to offend."
"Even our boss would probably have to bow and scrape before these people."
The old security guard slowly took a sip of his goji berry tea, a look of reminiscence appearing in his eyes.
The young security guard's face immediately filled with respect, feeling that his senior must have been a man with many stories to tell.
"Please teach me properly, senior!"
Just as the older security guard was using his experiences from his youth to earn the younger guard's respect, the group of important figures in the older guard's eyes had already parked their cars in the parking lot.
This parking lot isn't underground; it's a surface parking lot located under the blazing midday sun.
The car doors opened almost simultaneously, and the people who got out of the back seats were all dressed in heavy formal attire.
Despite the sweltering heat, these important figures, whom the veteran security guards considered important, dared not enter the building directly through the main entrance.
Instead, each person took out their own handkerchief and wiped the large beads of sweat from their foreheads.
They endured the scorching midday sun until Angel, dressed in a red and white floral dress, finally appeared.
"The host is already waiting in the reception room. Please follow me up."
"Yes--!"
The chorus of voices that answered were just like the sound of them being in military training when they were young. There were only about ten of them, but they obediently followed behind Angel and automatically formed two rows.
The leaders in these two rows are also vastly different!
One of them had a very gloomy look in his eyes, and he was probably only in his early twenties, with a rather thin build.
The other one looked quite cheerful, around forty years old, with an explosively good physique; his bulging muscles looked like they could burst out of his suit.
The elevator carried everyone upwards, heading to the third-to-last floor of the apartment building.
After William moved in, the building was occupied by the two highest floors that William and Nangong Natsuki had already purchased.
The three floors below those two were also bought by the higher-ups of Island of Gen'ei and given to Nangong Natsuki.
As for the original residents, they were all forced to move out by offering them large sums of money. In fact, if Nangong Natsuki hadn't stopped them, they probably would have bought the entire building.
The sole purpose was to avoid disturbing His Spirit King's rest!
The 42nd floor they are now heading to is the room that Nangong Natsuki has converted into a conference room.
"Come in!"
Angel took out her room key and opened the door to the conference room. All the high-ranking officials of Island of Gen'ei nervously straightened their clothes.
There was no other way; this was the first time they had met their master since joining William's ranks.
With a mix of trepidation and unease, they felt as if they were taking on their first major family business.
Then they saw a refined and gentle man sitting at the head of the conference table.
On either side of him were Nangong Natsuki, whom they were already quite familiar with, and La Furia First Imperial Princess of Aldikia.
"Alright, everyone, please sit down!"
The man's voice was like a gentle spring breeze in March, slowly soothing their trembling hearts and calming their wildly beating souls.
"Yes, Spirit King!"
Time just kept flowing by!
From the blazing sun high in the sky at noon to the blood-red sunset.
The report meeting, which initially made everyone uneasy, gradually became a place where everyone could speak freely.
"Ah! Joining Spirit King's ranks was truly the right choice."
A young member of parliament remarked this as he emerged from the meeting room.
"Alright! Now that Spirit King has bestowed such great favors upon us, we must complete the tasks Spirit King has instructed us to do as soon as possible."
The older councilor glanced at the younger councilor briefly before getting into the car.
The location is back in the conference room. Although the meeting has ended, there are still people in the room.
Yaze and Angel skillfully refilled everyone's teacups and brought out the desserts they had just made during the meeting.
"Are you actually controlling the Yase Family?"
After a brief silence, William chuckled and spoke to the gloomy-faced young man.
"Yes, Spirit King."
