「Shall I show you around the facilities then?」

Suleyman also began a tour of the whole place granted to them. Overall, it was a plot of land two hundred meters long, and a hundred fifty meters wide, with many other facilities other than the main building.

There was a stable, with enough space for five horses. Seeing that, Artesia and the teachers began to discuss how it would be a good learning experience to get a few foals and have the children help raise them.

Other than that, there was a training gym, a warehouse, various workshops, and as was expected of the country of spellcasters, Arkite, there was also a special Skill laboratory, which was strong enough to withstand middle level spells without affecting the surroundings.

The last place they visited was the bathhouse, built right next to the main building.

「Ohh, this looks nice!」

Solomon was always particular about baths, so he would never forget about that aspect for the orphanage. It had been built recently, designed without any sharp corners so the kids would be safe even if they became a bit rowdy.

It was also large enough to fit many people at once, and the heater had been specially made with Magic Engineering to use Magic Stones as fuel, making it really efficient.

Hearing that, Mira took out a portion of the wealth of Magic Stones she had obtained and gave them to Artesia, as a gift for their new home.

Once they were done looking around, it was finally time to enter the main building.

「Ohhh this is amazing.」

「Incredible!」

The area right past the entrance was a place of worship. As Suleyman explained, the Three Gods’ Church had also aided with remodeling the place.

The idea was to expose the children to the Three Gods’ religion from a young age, in the hope that they would become fervent followers once they grew up. Mira could only smile awkwardly, understanding the undertones of those actions.

But that was only the entrance. After going through a corridor, everything looked more like an actual school, but arranged in a way that would allow it to operate as an orphanage as well.

There were many improvements and changes compared to a school, which had been designed by Suleyman, so he was able to explain everything to them.

Those included a dining hall and kitchen, rooms repurposed for children to play in, and many classrooms. It was clear that they had not spared any expense when renewing the building, which Artesia and Lastrada found great joy in.

「The third floor houses the dormitory. There’s enough space for more than a hundred beds there.」

Suleyman seemed happy to see those reactions, so he went up the stairs in a good mood. Everyone followed him, also looking forward to seeing what was next.

As soon as they got there, they were greeted by the sight of the children and teachers, the children appearing as though they had just been in an argument. It did not take long for Mira to realize what had caused that.

「They’re probably fighting over who sleeps where.」 Mira’s hunch was fully correct, as a teacher soon explained that there was a big argument about who got to sleep next to the windows, or on top of the bunk beds.

「Oh yeah, I think something like this happened before too.」

「Yes, yes it did happen.」

Lastrada and Artesia seemed to remember something from their time living on tree houses as they smiled at each other.

Their curiosity was piqued as they wondered just how different the beds could be to cause such a commotion, only to discover that the concerns were indeed more justified than they had initially thought.

The classrooms had been split into four smaller rooms, each of which had two bunk beds next to the window, and two facing the corridor, making those beds with a view outside extremely desirable.

「I can’t believe this… I’m so sorry for not thinking of this ahead of time.」

Suleyman looked around the rooms in disappointment, realizing he had failed to account for the behavior of children.

He then promised them that he would take their issues into consideration, and would come back with a satisfactory solution for everyone. That managed to calm down the children, so that took care of things.

A few days later, he would have the solution, with a different arrangement for the bunk beds that left all of the children happy. Any time he accepted a job, he made sure to see it to the end.

「That concludes the tour, we should make our way to the castle soon.」

Once they were done looking around the third floor, Suleyman said that. With the tour of the facilities over, it was finally time for the more important matter. An audience with Solomon, or rather, a reunion with him.

Mira and the rest then told the teachers that they would go have a meeting with King Solomon, and left the new orphanage. They all climbed onto a carriage parked next to the orphanage, and after around ten minutes of riding, they arrived at Arkite Castle.

「Ohh, this place hasn’t changed one bit!」

「I know. It really brings back many memories, being here after so many years.」

While the areas surrounding the castle had been renewed over the years, the main castle itself still looked the same, which brought a sense of homecoming to the two as they gazed upon it.

But it was only the exterior that had remained the same, as the interior was completely different.

「Ahh! Welcome back, Lady Mira!」

「Would you like some refreshments? Or shall we prepare the bath for you?」

With almost impeccable timing, the two maids Lily and Tabatha came running out to meet Mira, as they had overheard she would arrive that day.

「Remember to mind your manners around guests, you two.」

Suleyman warned them, and they looked around in shock. They had been so fixated on Mira that they had not noticed Artesia, Lastrada, or even Suleyman, so they bowed and apologized to them.

Also, as they had never seen Artesia or Lastrada before, they still did not know that they were two of the Nine Wisemen.
