Chapter 308 Arriving at Darkle City and Going Straight to the Baron's House (3)

"The rest of us and my older brother and sister were born to our mother, but the other two were born to our father's mistress."

Yenna rolled her eyes, but she understood why there was only one boy supporting the little witch. It turned out that the group of children had two mothers.

"Where is her college? Is it in the city?"

"No, the wizard academy is in the Duchy of Ackerley."

"Then why is she home?"

"The college is on holiday."

"A holiday before winter?"

"I don't know. That's what she said when she came back."

Following these words, the family turned around with strange expressions and looked at the girl who was still unconscious on the steps.

The daughter born to the mistress is the only one with wizarding talent. In order to support her, the resources for other children in the family were cut. When she came back at first, her family felt it was strange but didn't think much about it. Now the avenger who came to the door also felt it was strange, which is very problematic.

Ye Na also laughed out loud.

"She went home before the holiday. Whose problem is it, hers, the academy, or the dukedom?"

Ye Na was really excited. If something went wrong in the Dukedom and the academy had to give students a holiday to go home, wouldn't that mean that major progress had been made on Blue Star?
None of the Baron's family members were stupid, not counting the youngest child. All the older ones in their teens realized that something must have gone wrong in such a great dukedom.

Everyone, including the Baroness, showed a look of despair.

The old butler was also shocked. What if something happened to the Duke? I dare not think about it, I dare not think about it...

Only the boy holding the little witch shouted unwillingly.

"My sister said that the college is on holiday, so why don't we allow the college to have a holiday?"

No one cares about him.

Yenne even gave him a spore to keep him quiet.

"How does the duke get away?"

"I only know how to go to Fort Malabene and take the teleportation platform."

Yenne turned her gaze towards the old butler.

The old butler nodded with a slight tremor.

"Yes, go to Malabene Fort and take the teleportation platform, then transfer through two more forts, and finally arrive at the Dukedom of Ackley."

"Tell me the names of those two forts."

"First go to Yastai Fort, then to Yaqiao Fort, and then you can reach the main city of the Dukedom of Ackley. Take a car out of the city. The academy is in the western suburbs of the main city."

"Now no one in your family knows what happened in the main city. All we know is that the young lady said when she came home that the academy was on holiday? Did she come back on her own or was she picked up by her family?"

"She came back by herself. When she got home, we were wondering why she didn't wait for us to pick her up."

The butler was getting more and more speechless. When the conversation got to this point, it was a trivial matter for the young lady to get into trouble in the academy and be punished by school rules and have to go home. He was just afraid that something had happened to the academy and the Duke's main city.

"What did the young lady bring with her when she returned home? Did she bring back all her books, clothes and personal belongings, or did she come back alone with nothing?" "She brought some luggage, as if she was on holiday, so we believe that the college was on holiday."

As for why this issue was not discussed in depth when the man first arrived home, it was very simple. The man brought the two children born to his mistress home to raise. Considering their wizard talent, he would raise them, but it was not certain whether they had good spiritual communication in normal times. When the man came back and said that the college was on holiday, his family would not ask about it in detail.

Ye Nai smiled. She certainly didn't come here to find out what happened in the Duke's lord's city. She was thinking about the luggage that the young lady brought home.

I brought back all the books, clothes and daily necessities, books, that’s the important point.

She turned her gaze back to the girl who had been talking to her.

"You are the oldest child in the family now?"

"Yes."

"What is your name?"

"My name is Nina. I will do whatever you tell me to do. I am willing to be your maid. I only ask you not to abuse my mother and brothers and sisters."

"Abuse? What is abuse? What is your abuse like?"

"The captives are all slaves. They have to work every day, don't have enough to eat, and don't sleep well. The nobles can redeem them with a large sum of money."

"No, I can't redeem myself. I have to work and have enough to eat."

Ye Nai's mind suddenly lit up. In the Dongling Secret Realm, she could only cultivate a few acres of land by herself. Isn't this a ready-made labor force?

It is impossible to live for nothing without working. Either you work or you die.

"Nobles are treated preferentially. Don't you have nobles? Since we are all nobles, please don't mistreat us."

"You have been fighting for so long, you have no idea who your enemy is? Not killing prisoners is a preferential treatment, but you have to work, you can only eat if you work, it's either work or die, this is called labor reform."

The last word was said by Ye Na in her own language. She was too lazy to think about how to translate it. As they captured more prisoners in the future, they would naturally understand what it meant to treat prisoners well and conduct labor reform.

As soon as Ye Nai finished speaking, Nina and her brothers and sisters couldn't help sobbing. The younger ones were even trembling. Even the old lady who looked very imposing looked like a coward. God knows how big the gap was between what they thought was work and what Ye Nai said.

Not wanting to waste time talking, Ye Na took a family photo for them, then knocked them unconscious and put them into the space.

While they were talking, a large number of spores that had been deployed in place began to ransack the house, taking away all valuable items and books.

There was not a single drop of wine left in the wine cellar, whether it was in barrels or bottles.

The silver tableware used by the host family on a daily basis is very beautiful, but in the eyes of the nobles, it is just daily necessities, and is of a different grade from the tableware used for banquets. Ye Na took the better one.

However, the daily necessities left behind were still good things that could be exchanged for a lot of money in the eyes of a commoner like the butler. As for the high-end clothes and textiles, Ye Na did not take them and gave them all to the servants as severance pay.

There is no need to say any unnecessary polite words. There is such a huge time difference between the two worlds. By the time she returns to Blue Star and leads the team to take over the territory, who knows how many years will have passed here. The city may have a new owner, and she will have to fight another battle to take it back.

After all this cleaning, it was getting dark. After all, she had been traveling most of the day in the other world.

Ye Na asked the housekeeper and servants to stay downstairs to pack their things, and she went upstairs and looked around the rooms. She found that the mansion, which looked very tall and magnificent on the outside, actually had three floors plus a attic.

The master and mistress' bedrooms are at both ends of the corridor on the third floor, one for each, with a study and library in the middle. The boys live on the second floor and the girls live in the attic, which has a row of large windows that provide excellent lighting.

I can only say that it is worthy of being a baron's mansion. There are so many rooms that the owner and the children can each have a bedroom, and the servants sleep in the basement.

Ye Na walked around and chose the attic as her resting place for tonight.
