While Kaede was supplying the threads and Akane consulted with Maria as they were discussing the design of the uniforms that the maids would wear, Laeva and I made all sorts of necessary things because the number of people increased.

I didn’t think that we would be employing over 30 people, so we quickly had to make bunk beds, and for the time being, it’s cramped, but they’re currently staying in rooms with 8 people each.

Sebastian, and Maribelle were, of course, allocated with private rooms.

In the meantime, we would construct a building exclusively for the employee’s lodging.

According to Sebastian and Maribelle, the servants would feel more at ease with that than living under the same roof.

Were they saying that private time is important?

Taking in that advice, we decided to construct a building that would become the employee dormitory.

Once the foundation was leveled using Earth Magic, I took out wood, stone, ingredients for glass such as silica sand, soda ash, lime, as well as chromium and nickel to strengthen the iron ingots to be used for the reinforcement of the structure as well as for window sashes.

After that, I made sure to have a proper image in mind and transmuted it in one go.

「『Transmute』!」

A large magic circle formed on the ground, all the ingredients were engulfed in light, then, the next moment, the light took the form of a building. The light burst open and in its place, a two story stone building appeared.

「Fuu, something like this I guess.」

「「…………」」

Sebastian and Maribelle who came to my side before I knew it were frozen with their eyes and mouth wide open.

Was this their first time seeing alchemy? The stupefied Sebastian asked.

「M-master, what happened just now?」

「Eh? You’ve never seen alchemy?」

Even if Sebastian and Maribelle said it was strange, I’ve never met another alchemist so I can’t tell if something is normal or not.

Leaving the dumbfounded Sebastian and Maribelle behind, I went from the Teleport Gate on the basement to the Sancutary Mansion.

Behind the mansion, I made another employee dormitory of a similar scale to the one in Volton.

Just as the building was built with the same specifications as the one in the Volton Mansion, I sensed people were approaching.

「What have you built?」

The person who spoke was my neighbor in the Sancutary, Princess Mimir, and her attendant.

「Ahh, this? I employed maids and butlers for my mansions in Volton and in the Sanctuary. That’s why I think it’s necessary to make a sort of employee dormitory.」

「Well, I suppose so. ……umm, though this might be shameless request, may I ask for one in my backyard as well?」

When Princess Mimir said so, and I just realized that she only had a few attendants that take care of her, and maids who manage her mansion even though she’s a princess.

I had completely forgotten about the fact that this was a special place known as the Sanctuary.

Because of the difficulty with screening the people who could set foot into the Sanctuary, she could only bring the minimal number of maids and guards to rely on into the Sanctuary.

Naturally, that made it difficult to take along carpenters from the outside so freely, so even the mansion she lives in was a building I arranged. She could have requested the Dwarves and Elves living in the Sanctuary to do her interior design, furniture, and the like, but she couldn’t ask for an entire house because they each had their own jobs to do.

「Oh yes. I should have prepared a building for the maids and guards much earlier.」

When I asked about it, she apparently had 4 knight escorts, but they were using the residential district, The Sanctuary is safe so there was no problem, but it would definitely be better to build one near the mansion.

Gardening and chores were apparently a way for children to earn some pocket money.

「I understand. If you are fine with the same building, I can build it immediately.」

「Thank you. I can request the interior and furniture to the residents of the Sanctuary, so even the building would be more than enough.」

The pay I ask for was only to replace the building materials, so I quickly used 『Transmute』.

This was already my third time making the same building, so it really didn’t take that much time to complete.

「……as per usual, what outrageous power. Well then, Iruma-sama. I must return to my country for the time being to select some personnel, so please excuse me.」

Princess Mimir thanked me courteously and cheerfully returned to make preparations.

I should have noticed sooner. The number of guards and maids serving the princess not even reaching 10 was not great.
