Chapter 185: Star Constellations Book

The following day, Charles woke up earlier and asked the kids and Ashley to gather in the main hall.

It was around 11.A.M,

Charles sat on the same chesterfield sofa and held a brown-covered book in his hand.

Meanwhile, Rhea, Ashley, and others stood in front of him and waited for his further orders.

Early morning, Charles went to Day and Night Church and asked Bishop to sell the Class-Gems in bulk.

Although Bishop Myles was reluctant at first, he soon agreed to his request under some conditions.

The main condition was that the Day and Night Church would only give them a limited amount of Class-Gems per year.

As long as Rhea agrees to let them build Churches in the Iron Kingdom, they would give 200 Rank-1 Class Gems, 40 Rank-2 Class Gems, 10 Rank-3 Class Gems, and one Rank-4 Class Gem per year.

In those Class Gems, most of them would be Soldier Class, Bowman Class, Knight Class, and Thief Class, while the remaining one would be Mage Class Gems.

When Charles asked him about other Class gems, Bishop Myles told him that it would be very hard to get those Class Gems.

Bishop also listed out few more conditions and even explained the pros and cons to him.

After thinking for some time, Charles agreed to Bishop's conditions and requested him to get a Star-Constellations book from the Magic Tower.

That was the brown-covered book he held in his hand now!

Placing the book in front of the table, he glanced at the kids and soon focused his attention on the female servant.

"Ashley.

" He said.

"Y-Yes, My Lord.

" A stuttering reply came out of her mouth.

Currently, she wore a decent maid outfit and appeared healthier than before. Her past skinny body was now replaced with some flesh and appeared shaper. Her long hair wafted around her like black smoke, its tendrils curling and moving of their own volition.

"Hire one laundry maid, one housemaid, one gardener, one butler, two housekeepers, two chefs, two footmen, and ten Rank-2 Mystic Guards within a week. From now on, you are responsible for managing all the house works.

" His cold voice echoed inside the main hall.

"Yes, My Lord.

" Ashley nodded her head.

At that moment, Jessie narrowed her emerald green eyes and wore a confused look.

Noticing her confusion, Charles let out a chuckle and added.

"Maintaining such a large mansion is not an easy matter, lass. Don't worry about it. I will personally check their identities in case if there is a spy among the group.

"

Only then did Jessie's face turned into a relaxed one.

After that, Charles turned his gaze towards Noel and others and spoke.

"You guys are responsible for hiring few carpenters and complete the repairing work within the next few days. After that, all of you should focus on improving your strength and let these servants do the chore works.

"

"What about recruiting the kids, Teacher?

" Rhea asked.

Upon hearing her words, Charles placed his hand on his chin and spoke thoughtfully.

"You can do it during the weekend days. Bishop said that he would send the Class-Gems within a week. You guys start recruiting after getting those Class-Gems.

"

"Yes, Teacher.

" All of them nodded their heads in unison.

A pleased smile appeared on Charles's wrinkled face as he stood up and nodded.

"Good. From today onwards, I'm going to stay on the third floor and planning to do a close door meditation. Unless if it is an urgent matter, do not disturb me. Also, warn the servants too.

"

Saying so, he took the book, held the cane in his hand, and started walking towards the bifurcated stairs.

…

Under Charles's order, the kids focused their attention on repairing, painting, cleaning, and reorganizing things in the mansion during the next few days.

On the other hand, Ashley went to the Commoners' District and hired the servants and guards.

Meanwhile, Charles entered the third floor and started comprehending the spell models.

In a blink, one week passed away.

During the past seven days, the reparation work was already over, and the mansion appeared almost good as new.

Ashley also became a head maid after hiring new servants and guards and managing all the household works.

As for Jessie and other kids? They moved to the second floor and started improving their class skills.

As usual, Charles woke up early in the morning, took a long bath, changed his cloth into a casual one, and went downstairs to have breakfast.

After that, he gave a sealed Rank-3 Fire Lizard carcass to Jessie and returned to his room on the third floor.

Then, he entered his Inner World and started to comprehend the Fallen Angel's wings spell.

From his calculation, he knew that comprehending the remaining spell models could take more than two years!

Although he could enter the Fire Elemental Plane to reduce the timing, he didn't dare to leave the mansion.

He felt that someone might assassinate or even kidnap these kids if he suddenly disappears from their perception!

Six hours passed in a blink.

Once it was dawn, he opened his amber eyes, stood up from the bed, and stepped out of his room.

Then, he strolled on the illuminated corridor, went towards the circular stairs at the end of the corridor, and moved to the mansion roof terrace.

A sofa, table, and few chairs were placed at the center of the roof, while the surroundings were occupied with ornamental plants and vines.

Charles glanced around for a moment before he went near the Lawson sofa and sat on it.

Then, he took out a brown-covered book and opened it.

This book contains basic information about the solar system and constellations.

After reading for some time, he took out a golden quill, ink bottle and placed them on the table.

Then, he took out another golden-covered notebook and opened it.

Unlike the other one, this book was filled with blank papers.

He first picked the golden quill, dipped it in the ink bottle, and wrote in Runal Language.

In the first few pages, he wrote descriptions, ancient weird symbols, and their meanings.

Simultaneously, Holem's Crown also explained the meanings behind those symbols and their usages from time to time.

Then, he wrote the solar system name and the order of the planets.

'Myxend Solar Family…Sun… Main Star of Life… Ditune… Planet of Lava and Fire…Thoria… Planet of Heat and Light… Drypso… Planet of Storm and Wind…Edhen… Planet of Nature and Life… Hacadus… Planet of Earth and Metal…Rezore… Planet of Water and Ice…Okoth… Planet of Shadow and Night… Xone… Planet of Illusion, Darkness, and Space…Etune… Planet of Love, Joy, and Hope… Adrillon… Planet of Luck, Fate, and Destiny…'

'Pseudo Planets…Vivara… First Moon of Corruption and Chaos… Talis… Second Moon of Blood and Madness… White Moon… Third Moon of Chaos…'

A frown appeared on his face.

'There is no 'Time' domain in any of these planets.' He said in a solemn tone.

However, the Holem's Crown seemed to have already expected such an outcome and said.

'It is a normal thing.'

'Why is that?' Charles raised his brows and asked.

'Planets with 'Time' domain are very rare in any galaxy, lad… The same goes for Luck, Fate, and Destiny… But to think this puny star cluster has such rare treasure...'

'Star cluster… Galaxy… Are ancient mages advanced to the level of space travel?' Charles felt like he had indeed underestimated the magic civilization.
