Paperwork

I did manage to change her expression, but Elaria had immediately edited the magic she cast, and it returned mostly to normal.

I had been about to tell Elaria she made it seem insulting, but I suddenly decided I kind of liked how she seemed to be simply a hole for my use.

She was still laying on the table, but now on her back with her uniform bunched all the way up under her arms; white liquid could be seen trailing across her bare skin.

She seemed to figure out I was done and stood, squatted down in front of me, and used her mouth to ensure I was cleaned completely.

She stood and fixed her uniform, even tying the corset tight against herself. All I could think of was just how glued her uniform would be to her later until she finished ensuring everything was in place.

It felt oddly satisfying knowing the state she was in under her uniform, her walking around all day while in such a state made me a little happy.

I looked down at her legs and wondered if the black stockings were on purpose knowing they'd hide a little blood or other fluids, or coincidence. At least they aren't white. I think Elaria probably told her to always wear black.

Elaria had truly taken Alexis's training to an exceptional level, and I was very pleased. She will definitely be the one training future servants.

"Elaria, you've done an exceptional job with her training," I commended.

"Thank you, Master. I aim to ensure that your every need is met," Elaria replied with a smile and got up from where I'd previously rewarded her for a job well done.

"How did you take her from where the disobedient girl she started as to this?"

Her smile got bigger and her eyes brightened, "I recognized that she was someone who would eventually like serving someone so much that she wouldn't want to live without it. All I did was show her how good it is." She held a finger to her lips giving a playful wink, "As for exactly how, it's a trade secret."

"Hmm… trade secret huh? Is there anything else I should know about her?"

She nodded, "She has superb talent in magic after I redid her core and veins like you did mine. She also has a very good cultivation talent, so when she's stronger, she can help you protect yourself and the Mistresses."

"Alright, good. But don't you think you also need to apply that second spell to yourself? You can remove it when I decide to reward you again, but otherwise, keep it on."

"Yes, Master." She seemed slightly disappointed but immediately complied.

As I observed the two, I couldn't help but wonder how the dynamics of this hierarchy within my household would play out. Elaria and Alexis's devotion and unwavering commitment made me wonder if there would be any competition.

Though I think if Elaria can train her to this extent, she probably installed a sort of back door so Elaria is always in charge, as she should be.

Though if there is a little competition, with what they do it might bring a little amusement to me.

"Alexis and I will return to my office. We have much to do, and I need to familiarize myself with the responsibilities of being the tower master. Elaria, you keep selling the new magic; we need as many mana crystals as possible," I announced.

"Yes, Master." They replied in unison.

We split up, and I went back to my office with Alexis. When we arrived, Lila was waiting for me; she wrapped her arms around me and leaned back in a way that she was sort of hanging off me.

"I was on the balcony, then you were gone!"

"Sorry, I had Elaria show her to me." I hooked my thumb behind me at Alexis.

Alexis gave a bow, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Lila. I'm Alexis; please tell me if I can help you with anything."

Lila let go of me to start examining Alexis from every angle. I was a little confused as to what she was doing but figured I'd find out when she finished.

First, she inspected Alexis's face, reaching up to tilt it every which way. Alexis complied with the inspection, not resisting and even bent down a bit so she could see closer.

Then she reached from behind and started feeling her waist, stomach, chest, and legs as if feeling their sizes. Then squeezed her butt and breast, also seeming to weigh the latter. My little brother was getting excited again.

As if I needed more stimulation, she reached under Alexis's skirt, and when she pulled her hand back out, there was a liquid bridged between a few of her small fingers.

Lila nodded seemingly satisfied, "She seems good enough; Elaria didn't disappoint me."

Poof.

My head exploded. My wife made sure one servant that she wants me to f*ck picked another pretty enough servant for me to f*ck.

Alexis produced a small towel and reached to wipe Lila's fingers, but rather than use the perfectly good towel, she looked at me biting her lip seductively and stuck them in front of Alexis's mouth. Alexis immediately complied, opening her mouth.

This was the last straw, and I grabbed her other hand, pulling her towards the chair behind the desk. On the way, I saw her smirking as she licked her own fingers off.

When we got behind the desk, I pushed her underneath as she giggled and was immediately glad there was a back to the desk so nobody could come in and see. I sat down in the chair and scooted it closer, leaving the rest to Lila.

"Bad girl, stay there. So bad! I should be working."

I felt my pant unzipping as I started pulling out papers from my inventory until there was a good stack on the desk.

"Alexis, come over and help me look through all these papers."

She moved over to the desk straight away, "Yes Master, is there anything specific I should look for?"

"Lets look through all the applications to join the tower first; I want to get them approved or not without as much delay as possible."

We spent hours sorting out all the applications then stacking them by date. I am becoming more and more convinced Herbert was an idiot.

There is no reason why I should have thousands of reports from the monster corpse processing department on how each specific corpse was butchered. I do not need to know the specifics of each corpse, its way to specific for my position.

That should not even be on my desk! If someone thinks we need it, they should be the ones filing it somewhere near them, not me.

Or requests for time off from minor personnel on other floors. That's their supervisor's job. I seriously need to give these jobs to the floor managers. If they aren't the right people that should do it, they can find who is.

I really don't even think I should be the person handling the applications to join the tower; only the ones for high-level mages or from mages looking for high-level spells.

It's no wonder Herbert wanted to quit.

A few hours later, Elaria walked into the room, apparently finished with magic sales for the day. She glanced at the desk where some noises could be heard underneath but ignored it like the good servant she is.

"Master, would you like me to help sort the papers?"

"Sort out all the forms to join the tower and anything I need to know now. The forms are being sorted by date on that pile." I motioned to a quickly growing pile of papers.

Alexis suddenly spoke up, "Master, I found a very old report on the monsters in the Dreadwood forest. Elaria said you'd been there. Do you want to see it?"

I stretched out my hand and received the report. I don't think we'll go hunting again, but I've always been curious about why everyone is so afraid of that forest.

I flipped through the report, and what I found out made me feel lucky. The report was commissioned by the tower master before Herbert.

It detailed the efforts of an exploratory party of 5 8th circle mages from several kingdoms, as well as the only 2 10th circle mages alive in the world at the time, and how only 1 of the 8th circle mages returned alive.

The Forest was an absolutely massive circle, at the outside you have to be a 6th circle mage to be mostly assured of your survival, but the danger rapidly increased. That party with enough firepower to trample the world only made it about 1/3rd of the way on before dying.

I set aside the report figuring it should be published so adventurers can read it before going, and hopefully stay alive to bring back more crystals.

I was getting a little tired and could tell Lila was extremely antsy with anticipation even though she kept going she was getting seriously impatient, not that I blame her, I'd have lost it already.

It was definitely time to head over to my new apartment, the tower staff had cleaned it out completely, I wanted some fun before bed.

"Elaria, teach Alexis a cultivation method then give her these pills like I did you." I handed her the cultivation book and 15 pills.

I pushed my chair backward, and Lila almost rushed out from underneath after me.

Crack!

Her head hit the top of the desk, and her ears folded down as she held the top of her head while she let out a small whine. So cute!

I pulled her out and onto my lap, petting the top of her head. She moved her hands and held her jaw.

"My jaw hurts also." Yeah I bet it does.

I noticed drool and stuff around her mouth and chin then motioned to Alexis about it; she immediately produced another cloth and wiped it off.

I whispered in her ear, "Well then we'll just have to make somewhere else hurt more so it doesn't there."

Her eyes glazed over as I carried her to our new home.
