Chapter 18: Chapter 17- Hikari
I started to think for some time and after that I spoke.
"Can you get formations for everything we can get them?" I asked.
The salesman nodded and quickly spoke. "Sure, that will be no problem. Anything else?"
"I would like a person that would cover the rest and take care of the house while we are not at home."
Salesman thought for a little and then spoke. "If you are looking for somebody who you can leave in charge of the mansion I suggest buying a slave, it is much safer than employing somebody."
I looked quickly towards Yuki she looked at me back confused so I whispered into her ear.
"What do you think? I will let you call this one."
Honestly, I was rather unconformable with the thought of owning a person. Anyway, you slice it felt bad. I know hearing thing like this from murderer sounds like bullshit but even I have the line I would rather not cross and things like owning people is well beyond it.
"You don't like it. Why?" Yuki noticed something is not right and asked right away.
"Honestly a thought of owning a human being feels bad. I would rather not do that. But if you decide to go for it, I will get over it somehow." I spoke.
Yuki chuckled. "You have the weirdest restraints, next time you are going to tell me that you are stopping to eat meat because you are not comfortable with killing animals." Both Yuki and salesman laughed heartily. I just smiled really awkwardly, not knowing how to react.
Once the laugh stopped Yuki turned to me.
"Look hiring a person is kind of meh for me I don't want random person that I can't trust in my house and you are not comfortable with a slave. Let's think about it and come later. For now, let's just take the formations!"
I nodded and spoke. "OK, sorry for this."
Yuki shook her head with a smile. "It's fine don't apologize."
After that we paid for formation installation and left. As we walked towards our home here in the sect, we became surprised when we heard a well know voice from behind us.
"Hey, what's up with you two? Why the long faces?"
We turned and indeed elder Luo was standing there, but he was not alone there was a rather good-looking lady about his age standing next to him.
"Hello elder Luo." We both greeted and bowed respectfully. "We just wanted to get somebody to help us with the house you see and I am not comfortable with owning a person and Yuki is not comfortable with hiring of a random person so we left with just formation installation for our garden and house."
Now the woman that stood next to elder spoke. "What exactly did you need from that person?"
"Just cooking, making some tea, housework that the formations do not cover and watching the house while we are not there."
The woman chuckled. "If you bought a slave just for this it would be most likely one of the happiest slaves around. Young man, do you know what are slaves commonly used like?"
I shrugged. "Heavy labor? Sex? Combat?"
Before anybody could react, any further elder Luo spoke. "Oh my, sorry for this. I just realized that I didn't introduce you. Sweetheart this is the core disciple I mentioned you recently his name is Lei Fen. This young lady standing next to him is his cultivation partner Karasu Yuki. And you two younglings this my wife, Tanaka Akari."
We greeted each other and after that she continued.
"So, Fen, yes, most slaves will end being used in at least one of those three ways. So, is it not better to just buy one and give him or her much better live than she or he would have elsewhere?"
"Mrs. Tanaka but that would mean that I approved of the slave trading because I bought the slave, but I don't approve of it. In my opinion owning a person is all kinds of bad."
She nodded. "I understand. But I have an idea. Just to be sure you don't plan to have sex with the person that is going to take care of your house?"
I shook my head. "No Mrs. Tanaka. Honestly there are only two women I know that I would like to have in bed. One being my partner second being assassination section leader Weng. And even if I would find third lady that I would like to be in relationship with it would have to wait a year, since assassination section leader Weng make it clear that I am not allowed to take any more partners until we end our challenge."
She lady smiled and nodded. "That's good enough! In that case how about you employ our daughter? My husband can't take her as his personal pupil and she is stucked as inner disciple. We would feel much better knowing that she lives in the core disciple section of the sect."
Elder Luo smiled. "That's actually a perfect idea honey!" He turned to us. "What do you say? Will you do it for us?"
I leaned over to Yuki and whispered.
"What would you say? Would you be OK with their daughter?"
I asked since she didn't wanted a random person in the house, I personally liked this option.
Yuki smoled and nodded. "Daughter of Elder Luo is fine, I don't think she would do anything bad."
I smiled and nodded o her, after that I turned to elder Luo and his wife and spoke.
"Sure! Sounds good. When can she start?"
Elder Luo. "How about we have all dinner together at your place, we can introduce you two and you can make out the details by yourself. What do you say?"
"Sounds awesome, but a little word of warning. We are going to eat a restaurant food; we are not very good cooks."
"Don't worry about that, I will bring the food." Spoke Mrs. Tanaka.
After that we chatted for a little longer and then we split. Everybody went back home to prepare for our dinner.
As we arrived at our home, we found a group of cultivators doing something around our house. When we talked to them, they explained that they are installing the requested formations and that they will finish soon in garden and would like to proceed indoors. We nodded and like this before dinner we already had our formations installed.
We had some time before a dinner so we took a nice long bath during which we had some dual cultivating done. After that we dressed up and shortly after that we could already hear somebody knocking on the door.
I quickly went to open the door and greet the visitors together with Yuki.
"Greetings elder Luo, Mrs. Tanaka, Miss Luo."
They greeted back. After the greeting we invited them inside the house. As we were about to sit Elder Luo spoke.
"Ahh, I forgot again. This is my daughter Luo Hikari. Hikari this is Lei Fen and his cultivation partner Karasu Yuki."
As he spoke, he pointed towards the young woman I saw for the first time now during this dinner. She was a blonde with her hair tied to a bun, brown eyes, massive E-cup boobs, she was rather short just barely over 1.5 meter and outside her chest she had slim and athletic figure. She looked like embodiment of cuteness with her facial expression, as I took a better look on her, I had to restrain myself not to start patting her head.
We bowed to each other. And I spoke.
"Please just call me Fen." Yuki spoke right after. "Call me Yuki."
Hikari chuckled a little and spoke. "In that case call me Hikari. Parents mentioned that you need help here in the house."
She spoke as Mrs. Tanaka started preparing food on the table.
"Yes, we have formations to do most of the stuff but we would need somebody to cook, and do stuff the formations can't like washing our clothes. And most importantly we would love somebody who will house sit for us when we are out on the missions."
"Hmm that's not a whole lot of work. Under 'house sit' you mean what exactly?" Hikari asked.
"Mostly just being here during night and making sure formations are doing their thing like they are supposed to." I answered. "We just don't won't to leave the mansion empty for multiple nights."
"So as long I cook for you, wash your clothes, make sure formations are fine and sleep here when you are out off sect you are happy?" She spoke surprised.
"Yeas, we were planning to give you gold so you can manage the household." Yuki spoke this time, I just nodded.
Hikari nodded. "Another question, how about my food, washing of my clothes, a me living here all together?"
We looked at her a little dumfounded, I woke up first and spoke. "Not really sure what you meant but I will try to explain. This is live-in position so if you take it, we expect you to pick out one of the rooms around the house, sorry master bedroom is ours, you can pick any other bedroom. As for the food and washing of your clothes. Can't you eat with us and wash your clothes while you wash ours? Is that a problem? And the gold I mentioned is mostly for grocery shopping and for you to buy what you need for work."
About this time Mrs. Tanaka finished plating the food and we started eating our dinner.
"I see. So, if I understand correctly, you would give me gold to cover my expenses and I would live here for free? And we would not be doing any dual cultivating together, I would not be required to do any weird or kinky stuff or wear weird or kinky stuff?" She looked at me dumbfounded.
"You can wear whatever you want. And regarding the other things, no there is going to be no sex, no kinky or risqué stuff involved. But if you find a partner for yourself, please limit your nightly activities to your room. You can use anything in the house but we would have to make sure that we are not going to meet each other in bathroom, it would be problematic if you ran into us two doing some cultivation there." I spoke.
Hikari looked at us like we fell from the moon or something, she was absolutely dumbfounded. While her parents started laughing when they saw her reaction.
