After visiting my sister, I return to my room. My three lovely maids are already waiting for me there. The room has been cleaned nicely, the bed also been tidied, the desk, table, closet also sparkling without any speck of dust. I nodded with satisfied look for their meticulous works."Welcome back Henry, would you like to have lunch now?" Clara greets me.
"Okay, let"s have lunch here like yesterday"
"Yeeey alright, I"ll get the food" Carina seem glad to able have lunch together again
Claire and Clara chuckled seeing Carina att.i.tude
"Alright we help you too"
"Please wait for a moment Henry, we"ll be back soon"
Three of them leave my room to take the lunch from the kitchen. I sit on the couch and take out the identification stone. I"m thinking how to take my backpack from the inventory there. And to do that, at least I must use this identification stone again. So I hold the stone facing me and said the spell
"STATUS!"
A twin panel appears again in front of my face, this time the number is slightly different.
Name : Henry Harvard (Ikki Isaku)
=======================
Age : 17
Physical status : mild fatigue, moderate waist sore, hunger.
Physical power : 195 (200)
Mental status : normal
Mental power : 60 (100)
Nature affinity : Fire, earth
========================
(Charm : 10 - max)
(Luck : 8)
(Special skill : Cook, farming, blacksmith, commanding, trade, negotiate)
(Inventory) : Backpack (1)
=========================
I"m surprised seeing the mental power was decreased. Maybe to use this stone need mental power. That"s why the number is lower. I remember the first time I use this stone my mental power is 80 from 100. So each usage needs 20 mental power in my calculation. I also used again to Clara and this is my third usage, so I already use 60 mental points. It"s already 4 hours since the first time I use that stone, so maybe the power also increased back to normal in a certain amount for each hour. If I currently have 60 mental points after 3 times usage means for each hour the refresh rate is 5 point? That seems the correct calculation. I must be careful in using this stone or else I don"t know what will happen if I"m running out of mental power.
When I read the physical condition I also see some improvement just like what I feel. My waist still sore but better than this morning, and because I haven"t eaten anything for lunch, hunger is obvious. I try to use my hand and finger to reach the panel, but it only gets it through like a ghost. So it can"t be touched. What"s next to do? Maybe with voice? I better try it, I got nothing to lose anyway.
"OPEN INVENTORY"
Nothing happens. It"s like nothing to do with my voice. But wait a minute, the lower panel is different with the first panel. If the first panel belongs to Henry status, maybe the second panel belongs to me, Ikki? Maybe I should try it in the j.a.panese language
"OPEN INVENTORY" (j.a.panese language)
This time another panel show up. Yeah! It works!
[ Do you want to retrieve inventory? Yes/No]
"HAI" (Yes, in j.a.panese)
Suddenly, out of nowhere, a backpack drops in my lap. It"s my backpack! I knew it"s my backpack just by looking at that because there"s safety charm that my sister put on the zipper of my backpack. I want to check that backpack right away, but I cancel it, my maids can return here anytime right now. So I hide that backpack under the bed before anyone see it and asking troublesome matter to me.
Just when I"m finish hide the backpack my maids return with food in their hands. It"s the same bread and soup like yesterday but today is not the sausage but roasted chicken. Since I"m already hungry, after they arrange the food on the table, we start the lunch immediately. After lunch over, before they return the dish to the kitchen, we"re talking for a while. This time I want to know what my maids capable of, who knows they have talent in art that I can use to entertain guests from Stamford castle.
"Girls, tell me, so you can play some music?"
"Why do you ask that Henry?" (Clara)
"Are you not satisfied with our entertainment last night?" (Claire)
Carina only can blink her big eyes when she"s hearing Claire words. She seems don"t understand what Claire mean. Of course, only me and Clara understand what she means.
"Sister Claire, do you sing a lullaby for brother Henry last night?"
"Yeah, sort of" she answers it with giggling.
I and Clara throw a sharp glance as the sign for her not to continue this topic anymore
"Brother Henry! I also want to sing for you. My singing is better than sister Claire"
"Oh sure, I"m sure. What if I ask you to sing in front of important guest? Can you do that?"
"If brother Henry ask me I will not refuse"
"What about you two? Can you sing as well?"
"Um, I not good at singing, but I can play string instrument" (Clara)
"I can play violin only" (Claire)
"Good, maybe I need you two play those music instruments while Carina sings a song. Can you do that?"
"No problem, but we must practice for a while before can perform a good show"
"It"s alright, I don"t need that right now. You all can go now. Clara, can you get me some doc.u.ments from my father after this?
"Sure, I"ll get them for you after return this dishes to the kitchen"
"Thanks"
They clean the table and pile up used dished to take back to the kitchen. After that, they leave my rooms.
