Chapter 51: Task

Chapter 51: Task

Before I knew it, the night finally arrived. I leaned my shoulder on the glass window of the carriage and watched the road between the boundary of Spriggan and Marionette faction which was currently under renovation as part of my project to improve the roads inside the town.

Maybe the workers at the side of the road currently wrapping up to end the day realized that I was inside the carriage and waved their hands towards me. I leaned my forehead on the glass window and immediately unleashed a huge yawn.

This day was tiring.

After a few minutes of the journey back home, I reached the mansion. I exhaled as I walked down at the roundabout in front of the mansion and stepped inside.

Inside, I was greeted by Karoon sitting next to her was Misha who's currently holding a cup of tea.

Isn't she becoming a tea person now? That's what you get if you're living together with a person who loves tea.

"Yo."

Misha immediately waved her hand at me, on the other hand, Karoon walked towards me and stopped a meter away.

"Mister Casimir, how's your day?"

"Nothing special, just like always."

She repeatedly nodded. "I see, I see, just don't push yourself too much, little Misha here is growing worried about you."

I shifted my gaze on Misha but she avoided my gaze, with the side of her face facing me, I could clearly see her pouting lips.

I chuckled. "Don't worry, I won't. By the way, Karoon. How's the ongoing construction of the new establishments? Are any of the projects ready to launch for an opening?"

"Yes, we already have fully built establishments, if nothing bad would happen just like the incident that happened earlier in the Fang faction, we can launch the opening of those newly built establishments the day after tomorrow. You should be in there for the opening ceremony."

"Good. That's very good news. You really are dependable, Karoon, it's a good thing you are here to handle all the construction operations."

The door opened and Misha's face emerged from the door, she's holding a cup of tea in her hands. "Big bro Casimir. I brought you tea."

I immediately approached her and took the cup of tea from her. "Thanks, Misha."

I returned to my table and put the cup of tea over the table. On the other hand, Misha sat on my bed while just staring at me.

"You haven't had your dinner yet."

I smiled. "Oh, yeah, I forgot. Don't worry, I'll eat later."

She didn't reply and just stared at the pile of paper next to me.

"How's your day? I heard you are learning how to cook."

She nodded. "Big sis Karoon sometimes teaches me how to cook, when she's not around, Big bro Gareth, Big sis Mia, and Big sis Atty are the ones teaching me."

"I see. I'm glad you are close to them. I want to taste your cooking sometimes."

However, once again, she didn't reply.

I don't know what's stopping her from talking but I decided to don't bother her. I continued my job while she was just sitting on my bed silently watching me. Even past midnight, she still insisted on watching me and promised to never disturb me.

However,

Before I knew it, the morning sun touched my skin. I opened my eyes and immediately raised my head from my table and found Misha lying on my bed. I stood up and covered her with a blanket.

I fell asleep while reading one of the reports. I looked at the untouched cup of tea before shaking my head and taking the pile of paperwork beside me to bring to my office.

I can't rest yet, I still have tasks that I need to accomplish.
