On the way home, Raphine grinned.

I finally got Zerkan's confirmation.

Is this the result after a few years? ...!

Raphine was moved and looked out the carriage window.

It was a beautiful sunset. The golden sun was passing over the hillside.

hey look at the scenery

The scenery I saw often, it was especially beautiful today.

'Fufu. Now I just need to connect Violet and Adrian.'

But you don't even have to do it yourself.

Since they started taking classes from the same teacher, the two of them have grown even closer.

Yesterday, I witnessed a whisper while telling a secret story. It was very delightful.

'Ah yes, Orphana.'

"Yeah?"

'What did I do separately?'

"Yeah, it worked out well. It must be raining by now."

'Okay, well done.'

With the power of Orpana, rain is now pouring down on the estates of the Welsh frontier.

And under the name of 'Ravior Sangang', the top running Or Café, they even donated a whole lot for the drought victims.

"Heh, they don't even know our master's grace, and they are now talking about the Empress's virtues."

'It's all for the big picture.'

"Chit."

The higher the people's evaluation and respect for the Empress, the more power will go towards it.

'Besides, it's a good direction between the emperor and the empress.'

The Emperor must be very grateful to the Empress for this.

Raphine looked out the window with a relaxed expression on her face as if she had finished everything.

'Now, shall we close the tea business?'

There was still one net business left to make real big money.

* * *

After a while.

Several large, luxurious wagons lined up from the Duke of Aston's mansion.

The Duke and Duchess of Aston and Raphine were riding in the front carriage, while Adrian and the twins were in the following carriage.

Raphine enjoyed the scenery outside the window while carrying a small bag with ruby in it.

'I don't know how long this has been going out.'

After it was revealed that Raphine was a spirit samurai, the whole empire was turned upside down.

'A lot of things have happened in such a short time....'

Scholars and wizards who study spirits said they wanted to meet Raffine, and they even came to the mansion and lined up.

On the other hand, some polar believers and priests in the temple, who do not like the existence of spirits, requested verification....

'In a nutshell, it was like taking me to see if it was really a spirit samurai, and to do a living experiment.'

When the emperor heard the story, he said, 'Are you going to take a child and do an experiment? Oh yeah... You guys are great. God will clap and rejoice Isn't that right?' and mocked the temple.

Therefore, the temple received social criticism for a while.

Dad and Mom were very busy shutting down all that stuff.

'Besides, all kinds of places supported the Duke of Aston's investment and started making business proposals, so he got busier.'

Raphine was still sitting in the carriage, looking at Mom and Dad, who were talking about business.

'I'm sorry for making you busy, but....'

It was an opportunity for the business of the Duke of Aston, which was still wealthy, to grow on a larger scale.

It would be foolish to miss this time.

Mom and Dad, who were also greedy for business, looked tired, but their eyes were shining.

The same was true of the users who came in and out of the mansion. Smiles bloomed on their faces.

The manor must have been overjoyed by this news, and letters from vassals came in almost every day.

Anyway, for one reason or another, Raphine had to stay inside the mansion for safety too.

Hwangseong was also very noisy about it, so it was difficult to go to study painting.

'I thought I was going to die of boredom. It was regrettable that I revealed the fact that I was a spirit warrior so hastily....'

However, it succeeded as intended.

Rumors spread throughout the empire that Rafine, a spirit warrior who appeared for the first time in several hundred years, was very close to the Empress.

Moreover, when the empress's good deeds were revealed due to the change, people naturally turned to that direction.

The nobles also reacted sensitively to the news.

Even rumors began to circulate that the relationship between the emperor and the empress had improved thanks to Raphine, the spirit priest.

'There is no doubt about the fact that the emperor openly launched a tax investigation on the business of the imperial family.'

Empress Rebecca and Viscount Tedler, who were on the rise, seemed to be falling.

So the nobles hurriedly began to change their lines.

But Raphine knew it very well.

'They're not the kind of people who can break down that easily. never.'

Anyway, Raphine has been very busy running her business using Orpana in her mansion.

And today, I'm on my way to check the results under the pretext of going out.

"Raphine, is it so good to go outside all the time?"

After talking about the business, the mother stroked Raphine's hair.

Dad seemed to feel sorry for him, and he sat Raffine, which was almost hanging from the window, properly.

"You must have been very frustrated. But now there is nothing to worry about."

"Yeah, Dad is right. Starting tomorrow, I can go back to Hwangseong to learn painting, how about it? Do you want to go back?"

"Really? I will definitely go!"

When Raphine shouted as if she was waiting, the couple made eye contact and smiled.

in between.

Arriving near the destination, the carriage began to slow down.

"Have you arrived?"

The Duke of Aston glanced out the window and frowned.

They had not arrived yet, but the carriage had stopped. It was because of the other wagons lined up around it.

Raphine laughed as if she had already expected it.

'It was said that there was a wagon congestion phenomenon on the road on the weekends....'

Raphine's heart was pounding.

How much money did you spend on this business? ... Just thinking about that amount brought tears to my eyes.

But the business was truly an invitation.

After a while, Raphine took Mom and Dad's hands and got out of the carriage.

Then I saw the entrance to a huge and colorful destination in front of me.

It was the entrance to the 'tea garden', which has been attracting the most attention among the people of the capital.

* * *

'Tea Garden' was a park in the suburbs near the capital, and in a word, it was like an amusement park.

A dream-like space where the whole family can come and enjoy fragrant tea and music amidst nature.

This was the main promotional message for 'Ravior Tea Garden'.

The reaction was explosive because it was a place that was created in an environment where there was nothing to enjoy as a family.

There were so many things to enjoy in the tea garden.

Above all else, what Rafine paid the most attention to was the beautiful landscaping.

'It is decorated well as planned.'

It was a satisfactory result.

Beautifully colored lights illuminated the promenade, and the artificial pond and fountain with clean water rippling were lavishly decorated.

The large site was divided into small gardens decorated by themes, and there was also a space decorated like a maze.

And in the center of the tea garden, there was a large and colorful glass greenhouse.

There, sweet desserts and tea were sold together, and there was also a small opera house, so everyone could comfortably listen to music.

I also ordered stores selling various snacks like past life amusement parks and amusement parks to be placed on the streets, and I was very satisfied.

'It is said that it is very popular among the aristocrats.... All of them have been decorated in a splendid way.'

I was proud to see various people enjoying this place.

While looking around with her family, Rafine searched sharply through the eyes of the 'representative'.

This is a space where not only the aristocrats but also commoners can enter, so it is not closed and the atmosphere is better.

At that time, Luka and Lois found something and ran to somewhere.

"I want to ride that one!"

"me too!"

It was near a small ride.

I told them to prepare small rides for the children who came with their parents, but seeing the happy faces of the older brothers was very rewarding.

'You've worked hard, Orphana.'

"It's okay, Master!"

Orpana answered very brightly.

It must have been really hard, but seeing him say that made me uneasy.

'How much trouble are you going to make me later? ....'

Orphana waited for that moment and seemed to have perfectly prepared the tea garden according to Raphine's orders.

"Did you say top of Ravior? on a huge scale. I'll have to meet the owner of the upper house sometime later."

Dad also muttered to himself, admiring whether he was satisfied with 'Tea Garden'.

"Iknow, right. Have you heard any information about the owner of the top?"

When Mom asked Dad, Raphine sweated and overheard their conversation.

"I do not know. He said he had very bright blue hair.... Apart from his eccentric personality, there is no other information...."

"okay. Let's find out. I think you have a very good eye for business."

"I know. Collaboration is not bad as the top scale will grow."

Raphine swallowed her saliva and turned her head awkwardly.

The fact that he was the real owner of the top of Ravior seemed to have been kept a secret for a very long time.

"Baby...."

At that time, the ruby crumpled in the bag called for Raffine with a sad voice.

'Oh!'

Raphine looked around carefully, remembering the real reason she had come to this place.
