Reincarnated into a New World As a Vampire

Chapter 52: Are You Nobility?

"So his name is Gavikk Henschef and he's basically just your average guy who happened to stumble upon wealth and now owns a gold mine?" Aldritch asked.

"Yes." One of the guards answered with a black expression.

"I see, nothing much then, he does seem to be managing things well."

The carriages took them to a designated location where they boarded a train to the inner wall. This train was quite different from the other, and once Aldritch went on board, he realized it wasn't the looks alone.

The speed was at least double what the normal train moved at, meaning that they reached their destination quicker than it would take on a normal train, even then, it took two hours before they entered the inner wall.

Once they arrived at their stop and came down, Aldritch found two carriages that looked luxurious waiting for them, even fancier than the ones they used while within the outer walls.

There were several guards standing around the carriages, and as soon as they saw Gavik come down from the train, followed by his wife, they moved hurriedly to welcome him.

His luggage was taken care of, and once again, Aldritch rode with the guards as they made their way to the merchants residence.

The journey took quite some time, around thirty minutes. Throughout, Aldritch admired the scenery, after all, this was his first time in the inner wall. The entire place bore a stack difference when compared to that of the outer wall. The environment was cleaner, the air even smelled fresher, and everyone on the street seemed better dressed. It was really a big difference.

'Even now, I still can't see the innermost wall. Is the distance really that far? I didn't think there would be such a large number of middle class citizens.' He thought to himself.

As the wheels of the luxurious carriages rolled up to Gavik's residence, a huge mansion akin to that of a second rate noble came into view. The yard was big and very spacious and the house itself looked extravagant, 'isn't that too much?'

Once the carriages pulled up to the gates, they were swung open by the guards mounted there and allowed in.

"Welcome to my humble abode, Aldritch. How do you like it, do tell." Gavik said with a wide smile.

"It is like the house of a noble sir, I've only ever heard in stories." Aldritch answered pretentiously with a slightly surprised expression.

Seeing as how he was surprised, Dalia smirked softly, "Misa, take our guest to his room to rest, will you? it was a strenuous journey." She said.

The maid who was with her in the carriage curtsied slightly before leading Aldritch away.

'Hmm… is she trained?' He thought to himself as he walked behind her, noticing that her steps were light and calculated it seems. Then again, it could be that she was indeed trained, on how to be a maid that is.

Aldritch overlooked it and followed behind. If anything was to happen, he could always get himself out of the mess. It was such a wondrous thing that his hypnosis didn't use much SP.

The interior of the house was even more mind blowing, Aldritch couldn't help but look left and right at different times, admiring the beauty.

"This will be your room. A maid will be stationed here, if you need anything, you can call for her, she'll attend to you." Misa said in a calm natural tone, curtsying lightly before leaving Aldritch to himself.

Now that he could take in the entire room, he confirmed it, even the luxurious hotel he slept in didn't hold a candle, and this was supposed to be a guest room.

"In whatever world, owning a mine has never been the wrong move." He thought to himself. Aldritch walked around the room, checking out different aspects of it. Once he reached the bed, he first felt it with his hands, noticing the soft texture, then he threw himself on it next. The feeling was like nothing he had ever felt. It was soft and comfortable, yet he didn't sink in it, it was just perfect.

'How is it fair that someone gets to sleep on something like this whenever they want?' He thought to himself with a smile on his face.

"I wonder how the bathroom will look?" Not wasting time in his imaginations, he strode towards the door to the side of the bed. He pushed it open, but instead of a bathroom with a basin of water like he had seen before, he was met with a completely empty room painted white. He was confused, but thought that it must have been the closet, so he shut the door and checked the second one.

Opening this one, he was introduced to the bathroom.

The bathroom looked simple, but spacious enough, and to his surprise there was a bath inside, though there was no water.

'Well, they can't have water ready in all rooms at all times when there are no visitors.' He thought, after all, he was more of an unexpected guest.

While he admired the beauty of the entire place, he heard a knock on the door. Aldritch answered, opening the door to see a maid standing before him.

"If you wouldn't mind, may I bring you water to bath?"

"Oh, yes. Cold water will do." Aldritch answered. 'even the maids here are beautiful, being rich sure is good. Should I kill this guy and take over everything? No, no, that would be too easy, I shouldn't do that, where's the fun in that.'

"Um, excuse me? Would you like any other thing? Perhaps, tea?" The maid asked.

"Yes, I'd love that, with some milk if possible." Aldritch requested.

'Milk?' She didn't quite get why he would need milk, but she complied.

Aldritch returned to his bed to rest while waiting for the water and tea to come. He had some time to enjoy himself, maybe even extend his stays to a couple days, it was turning out to be quite the nice experience.

Aldritch drank the tea and after taking a nice bath, decided to take a nap. He really hadn't rested and needed the sleep. Once night came, he woke up to find that the sun was already down and darkness had just covered the sky completely.

*knock *knock

A sound came from the door.

Aldritch stood up from the bed that didn't want to let go of him and approached the door slowly.

Once he opened it, he found Misa standing before him, "you're awake. The mistress is waiting for you, please dress up, I'll take you to her."
