Submitting Quest
[Ace POV],
As we made our way deeper into the mansion, we took in our surroundings. Under our feet were stone tiles that had been used to floor the entire area around the mansion, and in the distance, a fountain with no water running through it could be seen.
This was not surprising given that, according to the information in my head, this magical building could generate water through the use of some spells, but because there was no energy left to run the mansion, this function was also disabled.
Perhaps due to the mansion's lack of energy, the area surrounding the mansion was a little dull, but this did not diminish the beauty or grandeur of the mansion. It simply meant that this structure was one that relied heavily on energy.
Aside from giving the surroundings a curious glance and the fact that everyone was tired, no one went further to explore the surroundings carefully as we just made our way into the main building in front of us.
Because everyone was tired, the matter of exploring the mansion will be postponed.
I couldn't speak for everyone based on their expressions, but I knew one thing for sure: I was exhausted.
Apart from the brief break I had in the challenge trial grounds following the fight with the monsters and the waves that followed, I haven't had any satisfactory rest since, and it was in this state that I cleared the instant dungeon.
Perhaps Emma was more exhausted than I was because, in addition to everything I had gone through, she was the one who worked the hardest in the first dungeon we entered, while I was more of a support.
Perhaps because Anna and Chris saw our state, no one suggested we go exploring.
It wasn't like the building was going to flee, so we had all the time in the world to explore the area later.
On the condition that we do not die before then.
As I was thinking these thoughts, we finally arrived at the main building, where we would be living from now on.
The main building's door was a French door, and unlike before when I tried to open the gates leading to the mansion, I was able to open it normally.
It was natural that I would be able to open it because it was only a wooden door after all. If I ignore the fact that I wouldn't have been able to break this relatively simple wooden door.
This much I knew from the sensation I got when I came into contact with the door.
But this was just a minor incident that I quickly forgot about after passing through the door to enter the building.
But what I saw just after entering the building told a different story than what was being told outside.
"Nice," Anna exclaimed as she gazed at the interior of the building, a grin on her face.
Unlike the pseudo-medieval feel that the scene outside the building gave me, the interior of the building gave me a heavy medieval feel while also giving me a modern one.
There was literally a light bulb right in front of me.
Though it was not lit, I was certain it was a bulb, but bulbs did not exist in the medieval ages, or at least not in my world.
'I should stop trying to compare both worlds because they are clearly not the same,' I thought as I observed my surroundings.
A long red carpet greeted us in front, and on the surface on both sides of the wall were bulbs that were lined up throughout the hallway in front of us.
The mansion was so large that it had a hallway and next to us on a wall was a map of the interior.
And, based on the numerous rooms depicted and listed on the map, I could only conclude that there was more than enough room for us.
A glance at the map revealed that the mansion had approximately 18 rooms in total.
This did not include areas such as the kitchen, basement, living room, and others. The house was enormous, but because I was exhausted, I had little interest in learning more about the mansion's general status and instead wanted to find a place to rest and collect my rewards from my quest.
With this in mind, I chose the largest room that could accommodate all of us, the master bedroom, and mentally memorized the route to the master bedroom.
After that, I led everyone to the master bedroom. Because we already knew where we were going, there was no time to look around, but I didn't mind because I would do so later.
Even though I was uninterested in it right now, I was going to explore the entire mansion because it was where I was going to live after all.
As I was thinking about these things, we finally arrived at the master bedroom door, and I entered without hesitation as we saw the interior of the room.
There was a large bed in the middle of the room that could accommodate four people, chairs in other areas of the room, and a table and chair in the far corner.
Even though I didn't try to notice it, this building was well furnished.
This, combined with the magical building's functions, made the gold coins we paid for it worthwhile.
With this thought running through my mind, everyone in the room found a chair to sit on while Anna tried to keep the filthy Mia from going to the bed, and Emma and Chris turned to face me.
Seeing this, I called out the primordial chronicle in my head, and as I spoke, a panel appeared in front of me.
"It's time we finally see what this quest is worth," I said, to which both of them nodded and then shifted their gaze away from me.
They already knew what to do because we had talked about it briefly on the way here.
As I thought of this, I willed my thoughts through the primordial chronicle as the quest panel appeared on the blue screen in front of me.
