Chapter 124: 131 The Beginning Of Revenge

Clara looked at Marcus while deep in thought. She at first had no intention of working for Marcus, especially when she heard of which estate he had obtained, but after spending some time with Marcus in his mansion she was really considering it.

After a minute of thinking Clara with a stalwart smile Said, "Very well then Lady Geist from this day forward for as long as you wish to employ me, I am willing to serve as your head maid."

With Clara's positive response Marcus pulled out one of the contracts and quickly filled it out with Clara, and once everything was signed away, she had officially become the head maid of Geist Manner.

"Welcome Clara, from today forth you will be my head maid. This house still has a lot that needs to be worked on and I will be leaving most of it to you to take care of."

Marcus then turned towards the viscountess and said, "Lady Tenreion if you are satisfied with the safety of my manor would you mind if we head back to your academy and we can hammer out the contracts for the other ten I wish to hire."

The viscountess stood up and nodded before Marcus, Clara, and the viscountess left the manor and got on there respective modes of transportation.

Of course, Marcus still allowed Clara to act as the viscountess's coachman and it was not long before they had made it back to Delilah's Academy of Service.

The maids that Marcus wished to hire were soon gathered up and after hearing from both Clara and the viscountess that the mansion was indeed now safe, they all readily signed one-year contracts to become the maids of Geist Manor.

'Elianna, Grace, Leah, and Stella are all going to receive thirteen gold a month. Amy, Hazel, Jenna, and Violet are going to receive fifteen gold a month. Finally, Riley who will be Lilia's personal teacher until she is ready to take an entrance exam for the schools around here will be paid seventeen gold a month, and Clara as the head maid will be getting twenty-four gold coins a month.'

Marcus quickly began doing calculations in his head and figured after factoring other expenses that with his current funds he would be out of money within three to four months maybe five if he was lucky.

However, Marcus decided to worry about his lack of income at a later time and instead gathered up the maids he had just hired and brought them back to his estate.

Borrowing a cart from the academy, Marcus and his new troop of maids made it back to his estate just at the height of the afternoon.

Marcus then led the maids over to the servants building that Lilia had cleaned up a bit and allowed his new maids to get acquainted with where they were going to be staying.

Of course, since there were plenty of extra rooms Marcus told them that they could each have their own except for Clara who would be given a room within the mansion.

All of the maids let out a cheer when they heard this, already happy that they had decided to work for Marcus who did not seem like a stuffy noble that would treat them more like objects than people.

After the maids had finished getting acquainted with where they were going to be living, Marcus brought them over to the main building and began giving them the tour.

Going through the mansion Marcus and the maids soon came across Lilia, and Marcus called her over so she could meet the new maids.

"Lilia, these people are going to be working for me for some time and will do their best to keep up the maintenance on the house. Ah and this here is Riley; she is going to be your tutor until we can get you enrolled in one of the schools in the city, so make sure to listen to her instructions and do you best to learn."

Marcus then turned to the maids and said, "This is my little sister Lilia please treat her well from now on."

The maids then bowed towards Lilia and said, "It is a pleasure to meet you Lady Lilia."

Lilia getting a bit shy went and hid behind Marcus since she really was not used to being treated in such a way.

Marcus seeing her reaction let out a little chuckle before showing the maids the rest of the building.

"Now that all of you have gotten acquainted with the building you can see it still has a lot of work that needs to be done."

Marcus then handed a list of things that needed to be accomplished to Clara such as, finishing cleaning the house, getting someone to perform maintenance on the house's plumbing, buying new furniture for both the main mansion and servants quarters, and many more things.

Marcus then took out the magic bag he had obtained from Ander and handed it to Clara.

"Here, as head maid you will need access to a certain amount of funds and having a dimensional storage will help you in your daily duties. Inside I have left a pouch containing seven hundred gold. Use this to pay for anything necessary to accomplish the tasks on the list I gave you and pay your and the other maids' salary."

Clara and all of the other maids looked at Marcus like he was insane. Who would just hand over that kind of money to a new servant that had not even been working for them for a day? Not to mention that Marcus had just given Clara a magic bag as well, which while not a rare item was still quite expensive.

"Lady Irene, I am afraid that it would be unprofessional for me to accept this. While I understand that you need to leave me a certain amount of funds to do my job, this is far to much. If I wanted to, I could just leave now and head to a small town and live the rest of my life off of this."

Marcus looked at her and with a big smile on his face said, "Yes of course I had thought of that possibility, but I think that I can trust you and, in all honesty, I am going to be very busy for the next few days and will not have time to give you funds for every little thing. Also, should any of you betray me and skip town with the money I have given to you to use, I will hunt you down and make you regret it."

Marcus wanted all of the maids to know that he would not tolerate any sort of theft or other such actions that would deliberately harm him or Lilia and judging by all of their expressions, that point seemed to have been received.

Even Clara who is level twenty-five and considered quite strong felt a sense of terror from Marcus' statement.

Lowering the intimidating presence he had just released, Marcus with a resolute face said, "Now then, I have some urgent business that I have delayed for too long and I need to get to it. Clara you will be in charge while I am gone, I expect to be back no later than three days from now."

Marcus then began heading towards the front door leaving all of the maids a bit surprised since they had only just been hired but their master was immediately leaving.

However, before Marcus left, he made sure to find Lilia and told her that he would be out for a few days and that she should not worry about him.

The two of them gave each other a quick hug before Lilia said, "Be safe and try not to get into any trouble and be back soon."

Marcus smiled at Lilia one last time before waving his hand and exiting the building.

Sensing his connection with Blitz, Marcus sent him a mental message to watch over the estate and Lilia while he was gone.

With his business with his new estate handled Marcus proceed to pass through the gates of his estate and begin his search for Viscount Poulsen.

After a few hours of sleuthing around Marcus had finally arrived in front of Viscount Poulsen's estate, which was actually only around twenty minutes from his own.

'It has taken me a while, but I am finally back to repay you Poulsen. You hunted me down and tried to kill me so there is no way I can let that go.'

Marcus quickly found a secluded place and reverted into his ghost form, and now that he was invisible and intangible, he slipped right through the front gate and floated directly for Poulsen's mansion.

Passing right through the front door Marcus cased the place out floating into room after room until he knew the entire layout of the building.

After that Marcus decided to wait in the largest bedroom which he could only assume was the viscount's.

Soon as evening was beginning to encroach on the world, Marcus saw his target enter the room and it was time for him to enact his revenge.

Waiting ever so patently Marcus watched as the viscount got into bed and was about to go to sleep and at the exact moment he laid his head down, Marcus brought forth his spectral arm, grabbed the side of one of the mirrors in the room and slid it off of table it was on.

"CRASH"

The mirror hitting the floor shattered into a thousand pieces and Poulsen shot straight up looking for what had caused the alarming sound.
