Two more people walk into the room dressed like kitchen help. They both look like teenagers, one is a male with blond hair, and the other is a girl with dirty blond hair. Both are wearing a white kitchen cap. All the people stop what they are doing and bow to her as they step into the room.

Seeing all them bowing to her, she looks around for anyone to tell her what is happening. "For Pete shake, stop bowing." pointing to the portly woman, "Who are you and what going on?"

"Mistress, we don't have a name. We came with the castle. You can name us if you desire to do so. I am the head chef, and these four people are my helper that was summoned like I was when the castle was completed."

Digestion the words that were said to her. She points to the portly woman. "You're Martha so that I can remember your name." Pointing to the two girls, "Sarah and Jane." Pointing to the two boys, "Tom and Bill, okay, that done." turning to Martha.

"What the hell is going on and where my kitchen and my stuff?" tapping her foot.

Grace commented overhead, "I took the liberty to remove everything and put it in the warehouse for later use. None of the equipment works in your house. I placed a cool room behind the iron door where the refrigerator was at. When you step in and turn right, it leads to a stairway leading down next to your bunker. There is a large cold room that has a freeze rune embedded into the room. The cool room above can act as a refrigerator from the cold air of the cold room. I have no way to create your stove, although your next-door neighbors to the south have a large cast-iron stove in storage. Due to the fact they are not a part of this kingdom, I felt Jason would not want me to acquire the stove. As for the changes, I created the castle to you and Jason's comments on what you wanted last night after several bouts of exercise. I did ask Jason if I should complete the design as he was about to fall asleep."

Her eyes got large as her face blushed red from the comment on the exercise. Forgetting that Grace was monitoring everything. Then she thought in her head that if the Hendrick found out, they stole their old stove. She breathed out a sigh of relief that she did not grab the stove.

"Good call on that one, Grace."

Martha waves the helpers to get back to work and sees Sarah put on a big mitten and open the oven door. Using a wooden paddle, move a large pan of biscuit out of the oven and place another two pans of dough inside before closing it. Martha turns to Alice.

"I found a recipe for biscuits and gravy. I thought I make them for everyone and the troops from the barracks for breakfast." Martha said.

A brief smile reaches Alice's face, "No breaking the fast?" commenting about medieval times.

Martha look puzzled for a moment and grin. "No, mistress, I'm not from Europe. I am one of the poor souls that died when the gate opened and before the kingdom was built within ten miles of here. I retain some knowledge of the person's soul on skills but no memories of who I was. I once was a cook, is all I know." Seeing a sadness on Alice's face, "Oh, do not be sad, mistress. My Lord gave me a chance to live again. I may not know who I was, but at least I am alive now. I am willing to be your cook as long as you have me."

[Kingdom Loyalty 100%, Loyalty to Lady Alice 90%]

'Grace, why is her loyalty to me at ninety percent?'

'You are a mistress to the Lord if you remember Lord Cross gave you equal power to the kingdom. The system only recognizes you as a mistress until you are married at a shrine or temple. Then you are the first wife and will gain one hundred percent loyalty by the people of the kingdom.' Grace commented in her head.

'What about people we bring in?' Alice told Grace.

'That may be a problem for Lord Cross to decide upon in the future.'

At this time, the door to the left of the cool room opens, and a man with a mustache walks in looking like a butler. Behind the man is a short, redheaded woman in her thirties. Four other women in maid uniforms file thru the door behind her. Narrowing her eyes at the redhead, she already took a dislike to the woman.

"And who are you all?" her hands on her hips, looking at everyone walking into the room.

"Mistress!" everyone bows to her while the butler gives a slight bow."

"We are your staff. At the time, we do not have a name. That is the lord or one of his wives or concubines or mistress job to give us. I understand from Grace that you are the Lord mistress and may become his first wive and have been given right to the kingdom."

Again she opened and closed her mouth and pulled a chair over, and sat down. "You said, wives? As in plural?" Looking up, "Grace, you said the first wife?"

The butler nodded, "That is correct. The lord can have up to ten wives, one for each tier of the Kingdom. He can have many concubines equal to the number of kingdoms he had conquered. And any number of mistresses he can handle. If you check your status, you can see you have gained either an attribute or skill for twenty-four hours. If you were his wife, you would gain half of his attribute the same as he will on you, and you will gain a quarter of his other wife's status. It allows a Kingdom to grow faster and protect itself from other kingdoms."

'That is correct.' Grace's voice in her head said.

Stun as she stares at the man. A thought appears in her head, "what about concubines?"

Clearing his voice. "they are women that can be monsters or other intelligent races. Suppose the monsters are not appeasing the lord. In that case, a monster girl is created to take their place or assign a woman to that kingdom to be his Representative. He must bed her at the time of the conquest of the kingdom and once a year to keep that kingdom from rebelling."

Thinking to herself. 'Oh, this is going to be interesting. I wondered if he wanted more women or swore off more than one woman like he told Chet? Will he toss me aside for prettier women?'

Turning and staring at the redheaded woman in a maid uniform.

"And who are you?"

She curtsy and stare at the floor.

The butler spoke up. "We do not have a name yet. She is the head maid that keeps the castle clean and does the laundry. She and her staff make the bed and bath and clothe the guests of the castle. Her job is to make sure everything is clean for the lord and his wives."

"Does that include sex?" Staring at the woman tapping her foot.

"If the Lord desires it of them, it is granted to the lord." He said as the woman kept her head lower and mouth shut because she could feel the woman's dislike of her.

"Sebastian, I think I will call you Sebastian," Alice said coldly. "I do not ever want to find another woman close to the lord. No baths, no cleaning his body or tucking him into bed." Walking over the redhead and lifts her face up by the chin.

Staring at the brown eyes of the redhead girl that has a small amount of freckles on her nose and fear in her eyes. "If I find a woman, the help or a maid kissing or doing things she does not suppose to do, I will drag her outside and strip her and flog her until she understands." The woman shivers before her as fear reaches her eyes. Alice bends forward and whispers into her ear. "You will become Amy, name after a woman I hate that stole two boyfriends from me when I was in high school and caused me to marry a man that did not love me. The woman ended up being five times divorced and gained a lot of weight, but I still hated her. Make sure that no one gets near the lord, or you will pay for it." turning and walking away. She doesn't usually get jealous or threaten people, but she doesn't know them, and when she gets jealous, she tends to do stupid things.

Stopping and staring at Jason, standing in the pantry doorway, she waves away the prompts.

Jason smile and look over all the people in the room and stop at Amy for a moment before landing on Sebastian's face.

"Anything, Alice said is the same as what I said, and until a Temple is formed to make her my wife. She has all the power of a wife, is that understood?" Jason said.

"Understood, Lord. But you do not have to wait for a temple. You only need to build a shrine. At Tier Two, you can create a shrine that is bigger than a small shrine.

Access the panel and see that a small shrine costs one hundred KP and one wood, whereas a Shrine is two hundred KP and one stone.

[Small Shrine:

A wooden shrine dedicated to one god, a flat wood with the image of the god or godling, will appear with a small garden around it.

To summon a particular god or goddess requires planting flowers that represent that god. The chances of invoking the god you desire are raised to thirty percent. A small shrine will attract a god for five percent per day until one accepts to be your patron god. The main god to a minor godling can be summoned. Only one god or godling can be attached to a Small Shrine. Depending on the god or godling, you will receive a daily blessing for your people and a daily curse to your enemies within your kingdom.]

[Shrine:

A stone shrine dedicated to gods or godling, a flat stone with the image of the god or godling, will appear on both sides of the Shrine with a small garden around it. To summon a particular god or goddess requires planting flowers that represent that god. The chances of invoking the god you desire are raised by thirty percent. A large shrine will attract a god for ten percent per day until one accepts tot to be your patron god. The main god to a minor godling can be summoned. Two gods or godling can be attached to a Shrine. Depending on the god or godling, you will receive a daily blessing for your people and a daily curse to your enemies within your kingdom.]

Alice spoke softly, "I'm sorry about my jealous comment. It's just I have a tendency to get threatened. It causes me a lot of problems in my younger years."

"You don't have to be threatened by another woman. I have no interest in conquering another kingdom. I only want to protect my kingdom and the one I love, and that is you." he said to her as he stood behind her, bent down, and tenderly kissed her neck.

She gave a slight moan leaning her head to the side to let him kiss her neck.

Whispering into her ear, "you want to be my wife?"
