"What do you think?" Countess Dewinter asked as Wolfe got back in the carriage and settled back into his seat.

"I think that we can do wonderful things here for you. First we will take a tour through the farms, to make sure there are no major issues that I missed, but after that, we can make a stop in the village and I will give them the upgrades I promised." Wolfe agreed.

The Countess smiled, while the Duke and his daughter both looked envious.

"What sort of price did the Countess pay that warrants such extensive magical assistance?" Duke Roth pondered out loud, stroking his beard as he considered whether he too might be able to make such an arrangement.

"She traded me a rare magical device of particular interest to myself. But if you have something that catches my eye, I might be willing to help you in various ways.

You're not too old yet, there might still be a chance for a son, or perhaps your properties might also be in need of magical assistance." Wolfe suggested.

The Duke's daughter grabbed Wolfe by the jacket and turned him to face her. "There is a chance that my father's inheritance issues could be sorted? The man has four concubines, and hasn't managed a single child in the sixteen years since I was born."

Cassie and Ella both burst into laughter at her enthusiasm for more children in the family, but Wolfe smirked back at her.

"Or I could have you altered into a real boy, and you could make the heirs yourself." He suggested. for new novels

The girl rolled her eyes, then looked down at herself with a smile. "No, I rather think that I like this form. If you could help him with his fertility issue, I would be willing to pay any price you demand."

He didn't know if you could pass a living thing through that safely, but paperwork or a spoken command wouldn't be an issue.

"Please have everyone prepared to go to the Countess Dewinter's estate for a luncheon meeting. All the concubines are requested, and her guest believes that he can help us with our issue." The Duke instructed, then closed the spell.

"That really takes it out of me. The energy drain is intense, but there is no better way to get a message across." He informed the others with a smile.

That must mean that it was fairly rare magic, and Wolfe was glad that he got a good enough look at it to understand how the spell worked before it was over.

As they rolled through the farmland, Stephanie prepared the Garden Charm that would extend over the entire area, while Wolfe prepared to cast a Kind Intentions spell over the village.

They didn't have magic to keep an actual barrier up, but a mild version of Kind Intentions, that didn't forcefully stop anything, but discouraged crime and violent actions with a subconscious level of resistance would still make the town a safer place than it already was.

The biggest improvements would be from the Garden Charm that Stephanie was going to sneakily cast, and the renovations to the workshops that Cassie and Ella were openly planning to work on.

The stop should only take about fifteen minutes, but it would be long enough.

"I will call for everyone who can to pause their work and come say hello. That way, we can let you do the renovations while none of the equipment is moving." Countess Dewinter explained.

"That would be perfect. It will also give us a chance to meet more people, and sometimes, they have valuable insights to share that we wouldn't have thought of on our own." Cassie agreed.
