When the magic formation carvings glowed brightly and counted down, everyone inside the giant magic formation fell silent and hoped the mass teleportation magic formation would work.

When the countdown ended, the giant magic circle formation emitted a bright light and covered the entire body of the person inside with a sea of ??white light.

Swiipp...

Baamm...

The flash of white light made a jump breakthrough from the giant magic formation was recorded in human history.

The Marquess Rommel family and their loyal followers had moved from their small hidden vacation mansion to their previous residence.

Marchioness Amagi slowly opened her eyes. Her body felt heavy after she launched the mass teleportation magic formation with the help of a magic catalyst in the form of Lily’s sweat-soaked underwear.

"I-It worked?" the question-filled words came from Marchioness Rommel.

Her eyes slowly opened and looked at the Marquess Rommel’s residence which was located in the border of a forest filled with monsters. The mansion that looked neglected showed an old vibe after being abandoned by its owner.

"Our mansion seems to have become a haunted mansion after being abandoned and neglected like that," Marquess Rommel said while pulling his thick beard.

"Sebastian, can the damage to our mansion after being abandoned like this be fixed quickly?" Marquess Rommel looked at the damage to his main mansion which had been abandoned for a long time. He could see several broken glass windows and cracked walls due to the uncontrolled growth of moss.

"My lord, if we call our old workers who are currently working in your subordinate noble families, perhaps we can make this mansion clean again in three months," Sebastian replied while placing his hand on his left chest and bowing slightly to show his respect to Marquess Rommel.

"Three months? Isn’t that quite a long time to repair?"

"I understand that it is too long to clean the main mansion of the Marquess Rommel family. It is comparable to our luggage from our secret mansion," Sebastian’s gaze now looked at the horse-drawn carriage that had successfully jumped through space and time to arrive at Marquess Rommel’s main mansion.

"In addition to the written report and reorganizing the bookshelves in your study, we still have another problem of storing your family’s personal belongings which seem to be quite numerous considering we made several cargo horse carriages to store them," continue Sebastian.

"That makes sense, can we speed it up to two months? After our family’s long absence from the noble social circle, they will surely rush to our territory to meet in person rather than exchanging letters."

"I can’t guarantee it but I will try to finish it in two months. If only we had additional help, it might be faster."

While Marquess Rommel and Sebastian were talking about the restoration of the Marquess Rommel family’s main mansion which looked like a ruined mansion, Marchioness Amagi looked very happy while checking her journal which contained modern magic theories supported by the Great Hero’s magic book in the past timeline.

Meanwhile, Lily, Alice, and Alyssa seemed to be observing the walls of their mansion which were overgrown with vines and moss.

"Hmm… wouldn’t this be unique if it was used as an exterior decoration for our mansion?" said Lily while observing each vine that had beautiful flowers that shone brightly at night.

"Like a mansion made of nature?" said Alice while observing the leaves that covered the moss.

"Or like nature merging with our mansion?" said Alyssa while showing her sweet smile like an innocent girl who was attracted to the beauty of the flowers growing in front of her.

"I don’t know if this mansion will be abandoned in our escape disguised as a family vacation," while saying that, Lily pulled her hand and felt the walls of the mansion covered in snow.

"Is it just my feeling or is the snow that falls in this area so soft that moss and vines can still survive? Does that mean our vacation area has a very harsh winter?" Lily rubbed the walls of the mansion until the snow that stuck to the magic moss fell off.

"I don’t think that’s the problem, Lily-nee," Alyssa watched the moss that grew abundantly when winter had come.

"Judging from the growth pattern of the moss that grows and covers the entire wall of our mansion, it seems like it was deliberately left to grow so that the walls of our mansion would not be damp. But it also causes some vines that are active in winter to grow. According to the plant encyclopedia that I read, this plant that looks like a plant pest is often used by the military to protect their important assets in the winter," said Alyssa while explaining the knowledge of plants obtained from the plant encyclopedia.

"Alyssa, you’re not trying to attract Onee-sama’s attention with your intelligence after becoming a bookworm who loves to read in your spare time, are you?" Alice stared at Alyssa who seemed excited after explaining unimportant trivia about plants that are active in winter.

"Protecting important military assets in winter? I think I know who did this. If it was said to be intentional, it could be because of the curse that Zoe has given in their family’s bloodline to protect out mansion like an orders," Lily answered while holding her lower lip with her index finger as if understanding something.

Her red eyes were now focused on the vines that had embedded their roots until they penetrated the wall of the mansion. Her hand slowly touched the roots of the plant as if pulling something from inside the wall of her mansion.

"This is a clever way when the outer wall of the mansion is covered with a lump of clay that will freeze in winter," Lily took out a clay that had frozen in winter with a network of roots that formed a ball of clay.

"It seems I have to thank Earl Timoti for keeping our mansion from being destroyed. Although he must have had an inner conflict not to enter our mansion without permission so he left some of the broken glass covered by wooden bars from the outside," while observing the broken glass windows covered by wooden bars that crossed, Lily had time to peek at some of the items left inside the mansion.

"This makes me curious, have any of our things been stolen?" Lily smiled slightly after seeing some of the furniture that looked weathered due to being neglected.

"For the time being, it seems we will set up a tent in the courtyard of our mansion before our mansion can be used again as a place to live," after being satisfied peeking at the items inside the mansion, Lily directed her gaze towards Alice and Alyssa.

Kraakkk...

Krriieekkk...

A sound like the creaking of rusty iron caught everyone’s attention. The front yard of Marquess Rommel’s mansion filled with horse-drawn carriages was now crowded with rows of soldiers on duty guarding Marquess Rommel as the head of the family.

The sound came from the footsteps of a military noble who was tasked by Marquess Rommel to guard the outermost area of ??the forest that directly borders Marquess Rommel’s territory.

Ordinary people who live around the forest filled with monsters will be threatened by their presence which increases the population when the monster mating season arrives. So the military noble is responsible for clearing the uncontrolled monster population.

Greeting someone he knows so well, Marquess Rommel immediately met Earl Timoti who had been the guard of the forest filled with monsters for seven years.

"Long time no see, Earl Timoti. It seems that my monster forest has made you happier because you can draw your rusty sword, Ahaha!!" Marquess Rommel exclaimed while letting out a small laugh like a father who met his social circle.

"Marquess Rommel, you used your vacation time very well. Isn’t it already the seventh year that you haven’t returned home for vacation? Even the King and Queen almost said that your family was dead," responding to Marquess Rommel’s small joke, Earl Timoti delivered the news that made both of them laugh in amusement.

"That was the stupidest order I’ve ever read because they couldn’t track me who went on vacation," Marquess Rommel held back his small laugh when Earl Timoti’s joke made him remember the embarrassing incident because the royal family went berserk after Marquess Rommel’s family left one of the nobles who supported the royal family.

"Still, it was an incident that shocked the kingdom. A Marquess who stopped supporting the royal family when it was the third time her family was embarrassed by the stupid Crown Prince."

"It’s not my fault if the public talks badly about the royal family like that."

Earl Timoti extended his hand after exchanging jokes with each other. Marquess Rommel held his hand tightly as a sign of friendship, the closeness that was quite close and harmonious made a girl standing behind Earl Timoti silent while biting her lip.

"Speaking of the royal family that is having problems with your family. Princess Anastasia has personally been waiting for your return, Marquess Rommel," said Earl Timoti who immediately stepped aside to make way for Princess Anastasia.

"Princess Anastasia?" Marquess Rommel immediately recognized her when her body that had become a teenage girl showed the beauty and kindness that indicated her honorary position as one of the Princesses of the Aurora Kingdom.

"It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you, Marquess Rommel. If I’m not mistaken, it was seven years ago before you went on vacation without leaving your duties as a noble by ruling from a distance," the words filled with honor came from Princess Anastasia.

"…" Marquess Rommel fell silent when he saw and heard Princess Anastasia’s words.

With a casual hand gesture, Marquess Rommel swung his thumb towards the back without turning his body.

"Lily is walking around behind our mansion with her twin sisters," said Marquess Rommel who seemed to not care about honor when meeting one of the Princesses of the Aurora Kingdom.

"Thank you, Marquess Rommel!" With quick footsteps, Princess Anastasia rushed to the back of Marquess Rommel’s mansion to find Lily.

"Earl Timoti, do you know… now I can distinguish between people who want to meet me or want to meet my daughter," said Marquess Rommel while watching Princess Anastasia who went to look for Lily.

"I also know about that, after all, because your daughter has a talent for making a girl interested in her," replied Earl Timoti who also smiled when he saw Princess Anastasia chasing Lily step.

The winter was almost over and full of surprise by the meeting of old friends who had been separated for seven years.
