Visiting nobles (13)

When we entered the manor, I was even more surprised.

After all, this didn't seem like the manor of a noble at all.

It was still a manor, but there weren't any fancy decorations at all. It was a very minimalistic and simple design that focused more on function than style.

At the same time, it didn't seem like they hired many servants as we only passed a single maid when heading to the reception room.

They even stopped when passing that maid to exchange a few words with her.

The way that they talked to the maid seemed like they were talking to a friend rather than talking to a servant. The maid also treated them with friendliness that didn't seem like they were addressing their master.

After we arrived in the living room, the butler who had been waiting brought some tea for us as we sat down.

The first thing that Viscount Henry asked was…

"How was your trip?"
