《Optabilis Mundo: Shroud of Black Resort》Volume 1 - Chapter 14: Welcome to a New Home
Advertisement
House of Delicia - Located somewhere Southeast of Reversia
The gates opened while Mirai and Juliette got outside from the carriage and stood in front of the mansion. Formal ceremonies like rows of servants bowing their heads as they greeted them with welcome weren't a thing here, but the vibe was normal which both of them didn't mind expecting when a certain moment should've happened. Even though the outdoor yard was small and filled with any kinds of flowers and bushes displaying all around, the mansion was big with a size of four-storey building, but according to Juliette, it has only two floors with a huge variety of rooms and corridors, expecting that the indoors was more spacious than the outdoor.
The door shut open as one maid — wearing a typical black-and-white dress with an apron and ruffled headpiece — lent them a hand to enter the mansion with no worries.
"Lady Juliette and dear guest," a certain maid said while bowing her head. "Please enter as the master waits for you in the dining room."
With that, Juliette responded with her relaxing bow as Mirai followed in a nerve-racking way. The maid had nothing to tolerate other than giving them a space to enter is a welcoming etiquette. Upon entering inside the mansion, the glimpse of golden-sparkles displayed on the clean white wall; Mirai dazzled on how the design was picturesque to see. To Juliette, it was a normal routine for her to enter with this moment.
"I never thought this mansion was your home all along," Mirai gasped.
"Oh my~ As you know, this is not my house to begin with. This is just a household between a single child and me… as a wife," Juliette responded to her comment.
"What?" Mirai gasped. "I thought both of you were still engaging, and now you're married."
"Legally married, specifically speaking."
Mirai felt surprised as Juliette told a shocking revelation about her fact that both of the housemaster and Juliette were legally married couples — legally registered as matrimonial status. It didn't mean that Juliette prepared for this, in fact, Juliette together with the housemaster of Delicia arranged themselves for some purposes. She told Mirai her the compliment about the housemaster as he suited for a gentleman like him who has the compassionate heart with all of his hardworking nobility to serve as rightful man with his duty to fix the standards of his town and domain — which is the major role of every aristocrats to pass the bills about their assignment on their designated domain. For Juliette, he was kind guy despite of his flaws such as erotic desires — which she told her last night about offering him some "exercise". It wasn't like a daily thing for giving him pleasant service, but one thing that she concerned about was the capacity of his pleasure if it sufficed beyond the average of limitation.

Juliette proceeded to her designated location, which the maid told about.
"Come, follow me," Juliette told Mirai for an escort. "No need to prepare your confidence… he's a humble man."
"Sure."
With that, Mirai followed Juliette's detour to the dining hall — where the housemaster Delicia was waiting for. She gave her a bit of a tour, but this is not the time for her to stroll around. Looking at her behind, Mirai enjoyed the view of her jiggling thick butt while Juliette was walking with her hips siding with alluring pace. It didn't bother her even if she knew what Mirai was thinking, but she felt flattered while keeping her mood to its external refinement.
Until they arrived. The fat and young-looking man sat on the center of the table as he savored the fine steak dish in front of his dining seat.
It filled the background around the dining hall with magnificent displays such as a horizontal table, fireplaces, and above it is the magnificent painting — it looked like it bought nothing for a sole decoration.
"My dear, I have arrived here with one guest, an acquaintance," Juliette spoke with her cuddling tone.
"Oh~ A guest… who might you be?" the man turned his face behind. "Oh, dear~ Another beautiful one had appeared before me."
He suddenly stood up while feeling amazed by Mirai's presence. Perspectively, he dazzled around Mirai's physical appearance, but he, at first, wanted to let her introduce herself for a bit of personal information. Her soft appearance caused his dazzling eyes, but apparently, he looked forward to her personality check.
"Nice to meet you," Mirai smirked while slightly bowing her head with her relaxing tone. "I'm Mirai Shizuku, 25-years-old woman with… how beautiful I am."
A sudden giggle came from Juliette — while covering her mouth to prevent any senseless suspicions — because Mirai proclaimed herself about what she said awkwardly awhile ago. Mirai kept the greater tension secret within as she sweats out as the effect of her nervous reaction. However, the man didn't mind at all since he empathized how she acted with her clueless intentions.
"Don't worry~ It's not like you're playing a fool here, but the attire you wear suits you better. The black-and-white color is my favorite pattern," the man said while peeking closer toward Mirai's dress.
"Yeah… Thanks for the compliment. I hope that you will offer to stay here," Mirai once again bowed her head.
"Staying here~… I wonder if you're a lost child or something, but I assumed that you have eccentric features sort of… like my honey, Juliette."
Juliette crossed her arms as she smirked with much appreciation of her husband's likeness. Mirai felt nothing strange about him as she found him unique to acknowledge her essence even if she came from out of nowhere — which she came here as a summoning subject with a false depiction of herself as a goddess "Yukiona". Meanwhile, the man thought of her as the prodigal child who lost her way to home since she got odd features and name, but he also suspected to treat a lost child well by Juliette. Thus, his puzzled face attracted his curiosity whether Mirai was something to pick herself up and go where she might head on next.

"I should stop overthinking for now… my stress might overwhelm me for not eating this fine steak."
"..."
"Oh~ allow me to introduce myself, my name is Jeff Delicia," The man named Jeff introduced with his gentle, formal bow. "I am the lord of the Delicia household… and the husband of Juliette van Vermiculo."
"Yeah, I feel grateful for your acknowledgement," Mirai expressed toward Jeff.
"By the way, no need to address me as 'Lord' despite my noble status. It'll worsen my load of stress."
"..."
"Oh yeah, my cook coincidentally made two dishes just for Juliette, but it is quite fitting for the two person now."
Luckily, Jeff could let his chef cook three dishes; one for him, and two for Juliette — if Mirai didn't exist alone — but he was thankful for an exact timing as Mirai stood within the dining hall because Juliette told him before that she would go on the diet. Even wondering around like a lost child, Jeff treated her as a person who wanted to go along with, so he told the chef for an additional dessert — the strawberry-flavored cream crepe with its actual fruit. He wanted to taste his new welcomer as a sweet aromatic salutation to make her feel like she would be more comfortable to stay here in this mansion. For such a humble gentleman like him, all he fancied was without revulsion.
Meanwhile, both Juliette and Mirai sat down on their respective seats — and Juliette suggested Mira to sit on the opposite side for the proper interaction. They had to wait for the serve of two extra dishes. Sitting down for dinner, Juliette rested her intertwined hands on the table while Mirai patted her laps on it.
"Well, to rush this thing up," Juliette spoke for the first point. "In the morning, you'll give yourself some good body exercise such as stretching your whole joints of your body, and enhancing your muscle power to can endure and give yourself some physical strength and flexibility… and you need some stamina too."
"Hm~ It's kinda simple," Mirai nodded with a bit of confidence. "I can feel something that it had awakened my body to compass with my every move despite my unconscious rained down on me before. Could it be something that I learned from these kinds of experiences before?"
"Looks like you need some power control too… Pretty convenient for you to navigate the status… If your brain or body feels trembling, then your power has reached its limitation to plan the ability — which in other words, stasis."
Mirai had no clue about what she said before, but it was pretty clear it matched the fact within the occurrence of her desperate situation. The words of Juliette informed her about what had gotten into her — which is unquestionable whether her consciousness would pay for the circumstance with counter-circumstances. Thinking about it, she immediately proposed, such as submitting the fate despite how desperate, intrigued her to how she forced her way through the escape. Juliette knew a bit about this; that was the reason she wanted to train with her because of the fascinating factor around her.
"Here it is~ the dishes are here for both of you, my darlings," Jeff surprised them with his jolly voice.
While Jeff amazed them, one maid carried two certain dishes — it seemed to be a roasted beef with a variety of suitable ingredients. They placed them on each of the sides
"..."
"Woah! It smells so good!"
While Juliette smirked with her silent, Mirai felt amazed as the dishes scented of well-roasted beef with mushrooms, cauliflower, and mayonnaise; a fine dining that welcomed Mirai with her dazzling eyes and nose could satisfy their appetite. She thanked Jeff on how her welcoming dish greeted her with pleasing delicacy. To Juliette, it felt normal to her ever since she lived here way before Mirai had the first dinner in the household of Delicia.
"No need to thank me," Jeff said with his smile. "It feels amazing when there are just two of us plus the servants are merely living here for just a livelihood."
"Thank you… I felt a sharing of gratitude," Mirai replied.
"Sure… Feel free to enjoy your meal in front of the table."
Mirai felt like a new home within the mansion; Jeff and Juliette welcomed her as the new mate in the mansion of Delicia. The beef steak dishes with fork and knife on each side were in front of their hungry eyes; grabbing the first bite would make Mirai stirred by the fine sour taste that gave herself a glamorous toast. Each of them enjoyed it altogether with a bit of spark.
"Woah~ This is delicious! Fine dining has always excited me," Mirai appreciated the taste.
"It fills your stomach with that delightful meal," Jeff replied with a smirk.
"Well… diet goes to me, I guess," Juliette said.
The enjoyment with their welcoming smile craved the sweet taste of home; Juliette as a wife acknowledged Jeff's kindness despite how lustful he may be, although Mirai wasn't able to see his perverted side. The sparkle of joy presented like a golden-and-white interior pattern as it felt like stretching every joint to give themselves a relaxing pace.
