Gangland Fantasy 25 The Iron Crow Manor

Naga woke up full of energy. He had another good sleep. This place is so relaxing.

He went outside and Theodore greeted him. Naga has three other servants and two guards.

Naga seated on one of the chairs and looked at them.

"Have a seat. This is our first meeting so let's all eat."

"Young master, don't mind us." The butler said.

Naga smiled. "No, it's fine. Please join me. Consider this a master's command."

The servants and guards looked at each other.

"If you insist." Theodore answered and smiled.

They all ate breakfast together and talked for a while.

"I'll go now. I may not be able to visit frequently but please do take care of yourselves." Naga smiled and walked out of the mansion's gate.

"We got a good master." One of the servants said. He has full respect to Naga.

"You're right. A powerful kind master at that." One of the guards said.

Naga went to the Hall of Golden Light. Lucas looked at him and smiled.

He gave the ring to Naga. "Your friend can use it now. Please tell him to visit us too."

"Thanks. Sure, I'll make sure to bring him next time." Naga responded.

Lucas smiled. "By the way, here."

He gave Naga three scrolls. "These two are blank scrolls that can store any kind of magic. This one is the scroll of Dragon Arts. Gain more knowledge about your Dragon Mana."

Naga was surprised and delighted. He really wanted to have blank scrolls. He studied about scrolls from the book before since he has a plan.

"Thank you!" Naga smiled.

"You're welcome." Lucas smiled too.

He continued "Old Justus left already. Well, today's Sunday anyway."

"I see. I need to go back now." Naga said.

They went to the portal. Before Naga entered the portal, he looked at Lucas. "Sir Lucas, I'll help you with the task mentioned by the Bishop. I want to do it alone."

Lucas was happy since Naga agreed but he was surprised since he wanted to do it alone.

"Are you sure?" Lucas asked.

"Definitely." Naga looked at him and smiled.

"I see. Then, sure." Lucas answered.

Naga smiled and turned around to enter the portal.

'Weird child. I can only agree. Those eyes are authoritive. Sigh.' Lucas thought.

"My uncle is right. If Naga agreed, he will do it alone." Lucas turned around and walked.

Naga went to the church and saw Father Justus. It seems that the mass just started.

He looked at the people present here and saw Lillie at the far right corner.

"She's really the same as you." He felt sadness and guilt. He will never do the same thing in this life. 'Sigh.'

At first, he's looking forward in seeing her. He wanted to talk to her but now it seems that it's difficult. He bitterly smiled.

He looked at her for a while then he turned around and left when he saw that she looked at him and their eyes met.

'Is he looking at me?' Lillie thought to herself.

Naga went back to the hotel. He saw their land cargo at the front.

"Hey, Naga!" Nicholas waved at him.

"Just at the right time, we're moving now to our new home." Albert said.

Bill looked at him and smiled.

He saw the sad hotel employees lined up to the side. The manager looked at him angrily too.

'This servant! He's really not doing his job of attending to his master's needs. He didn't deserve a master like young lord Willard.' The manager thought.

Naga bitterly smiled and entered the cargo. He sat at one of the chairs. 'Haisst.'

"I'll miss my favorite sofa. Do we have good sofa as well in the new manor?" Naga asked.

"Yes, My Lord. A much better one." Bill answered.

"Good. Good. Oh by the way, here's the ring. Wear it." Naga threw the ring to Bill.

Bill catched the ring and wear it. "Thanks for your effort, My Lord."

Bill looked at the ring and frowned. "This ring..."

"It won't just help you in hiding your Ancient Prime. It was blessed by a Bishop. Father Justus said that other priests and even kings and emperors will feel the Holy aura of the ring when they're near you. An artifact blessed by a bishop. Congrats, you are truly a noble now." Naga smiled.

Old Drun and Old Samuel were stunned.

"Bishop? Did you just say a bishop? You told me that only a priest will help you?" Old Samuel asked.

"Unexpectedly, yes. Bishop Luciano Magnus."

"Lu... Lu... Luciano? You met the legendary Warrior Priest of the House of Magnus?" Oscar asked.

The elves were shocked. They served one of the kingdoms supported by the Holy Land so they know the big names.

Old Drun was surprised too. He was a veteran warrior and heard this name multiple times.

"I didn't know that he's a warrior but yes, it seems that can explain why he's so powerful. A warrior and a priest at the same time, interesting." Naga smiled.

"You met a powerful expert this time, My Lord." Bill smiled at Naga.

He continued "The City Lord wanted to meet you. She wanted to thank you in saving her little sister. Do you have time to go there later, My Lord?"

"Oh, I see. So that girl is the sister of our city lord? No, I have something to do today. Perhaps in two days time." Naga responded.

"As you wish, My Lord." Bill lightly bowed.

The cargo stopped and they went outside. Naga was surprised. He saw a grand manor and at the gate there was a huge statue of an Iron Crow. Now, he didn't know if they're really just acting. It seems that the House of Iron Crow is real.

"Are you surprised, kid?" Old Drun asked.

"..." Naga didn't know what to say.

"You never joined or accompanied us in any of our dealings in the city so you don't know how important are we to them now." Old Samuel said.

Naga saw seven servants and three guards waiting at the door of the manor.

"Greetings to Lord Willard!" The servants and guards said.

They went inside the manor and as the butler, Old Samuel showed them all places and rooms inside. Old Samuel talked to the servants and guards and gave them their tasks.

Naga doesn't have a room inside. He was a servant after all. However, Old Drun and Old Samuel guided Naga at the back of the manor. They walked until they reached a small lake and he saw a house near the lake.

"This is your house, Kid." Old Drun said.

"What the servants and guards know is that Lord Willard likes this lake so he asked for the old house to be renovated since he wanted to go here from time to time." Old Samuel smiled.

"I see." Naga smiled.

They went inside and Naga was satisfied. He saw a big round sofa.

"Thanks." Naga said.

"Food will be delivered here daily. I gave them task to deliver it three times a day. I told them that you'll stay at this place and also... Our Lord Willard promoted you as the housekeeper and head servant too."

"Kid, they will treat you kindly so don't just shoot them with your fire arrows." Old Drun reminded him.

Bill told them how Naga saved the city lord's little sister. They were surprised when they heard how Naga was able to deal with four assassins easily.

"Of course. I'm not a villain, you see?" Naga said and smiled.

"Hahaha!" Old drun laughed.

They talked for a while before the two old men left.

Old Drun went to his workshop to check the raw materials since he'll start working tomorrow. The workshop was built at the vacant lot at the back of the manor too. Their manor's teritory is quite big. There are two other houses around it. One of the houses was used as the guards living quarters.
