That night, after Sandra swore her loyalty to me, I gave her a piece of equipment that fits her Level. She was an assassin, and I had the perfect clothes and a dagger for her.
I didn't expect how happy she was to be given a good piece of equipment. Her smile at that time was beautiful. Because of that, I couldn't imagine how her life was before this if she was so happy with a simple gesture that should be normal and wasn't really special.
Knowing that she was also happy with simple 3 meals a day made me think maybe her life was really that bad before this.
And I also gave her a mission that night. I freed her from the chain, explained the situation to the twin nuns in charge of our mansion's security, and asked them to give a free pass to Sandra. Then I gave my new servant, the Dark Elf, a budget for her mission as well as her meals.
Once again, her face beamed with a beautiful smile as she knelt in front of me, thanking me for the money for her meals on the mission.
After that, I returned to my room and noticed that Garcia chose to use my room in the end. She was naked and slept beside Milea with a satisfied smile on her face as her body was covered in sweat and another kind of lewd bodily fluid.
The dildo I gave her was lying near her crotch. The tip was still kissing her pussy dripping in juices. She used that toy pretty well.
I took off my shirt and got between them to sleep. My right hand was on Garcia's bountiful breast while my left squeezed Milea's plump butt. Both of them moaned softly but didn't wake up. Garcia even pushed her body toward me, pressing her breasts onto my body.
Just like that, I slept comfortably while feeling their warmth.

The next day, I woke up a bit late and noticed Garcia and Milea were already gone. With their lingering sexual smells still permeating my room, I opened my eyes and raised my body.
"Yawn~ That was a good sleep."
Maybe I slept for more than 8 hours earlier. With my status, I didn't actually need to sleep that long. However, I quite enjoyed a long sleep after a few nights of just two or three hours of sleep. It felt refreshing but made my body tired.
Getting off the bed and walking to the closet, I got dressed in a white shirt and white pants with blue lining and an onyx tie to make me look dignified.
Of course, I also used <Purification> Magic to clean my bed, my body, and even the whole room. Not only the bad bugs would die, but the sexual smell from the two girls was also gone.
I exited my room afterward, and once again, the door was bumped by someone.
A soft thud resounded, and a yelp followed suit right after. "Kya!"
"Ah!" A voice escaped my lips as I looked down at the green-haired nun. Her skirt got disheveled, and her pure white panties were exposed. "Are you okay, Mia?" I extended my hand to her.
Raising her head, she had a look of surprise. "Y-Yes. I-I am sorry for being so clumsy, Sir Paladin." She took my hand and stood up, fixing her skirt. "T-Thank you."
"No problem. Be careful next time." I smiled at her and patted her head, fixing her hair. I also parted the bangs that hid her right eye, revealing her cute face and heterochromia eyes. "Yup, you look cuter like this." I continued.
"I-I-I am cute?!" Her face blushed as red as a tomato just by a little compliment.
Yup. Compared to the sexy Emilia, naughty Garcia, graceful Sana, and cheeky Milea, Mia's cute act lifted my mood. She was the girl who everyone would always want to tease to get a reaction. Even her troubled reaction as she looked left and right, unable to answer me, was like a cute confused animal.
However, while I enjoyed her reaction, I was busy today. So I lowered my hand.
"Calm down, Mia. Take a deep breath." I said with a gentle tone. She followed my instructions and inhaled deeply, and let it out slowly. After calming down, she looked at me, still with a red cheek. "Can I ask you to do an errand for me?"
"Errand? Yes, of course!" She replied energetically. "I've finished cleaning the mansion, so I am quite free, Sir Paladin."
'Really?'
This mansion was by no means small. To think she had finished cleaning it when it was still just morning. Maybe she was more skilled than I thought. If only she wasn't clumsy… but that was also a part of her charm, so I wouldn't ask her to change.
"Great. Then can you go to Royal Academy and find teacher Emilia? Tell her I can't attend class today and please fetch me a new uniform from the academy office. Mine was ripped last day."
"Telling teacher Emilia and fetching a new uniform. Got it, Sir Paladin! Please leave this duty to Mia!"
"I am counting on you."
I patted Mia's head, and she purred under my touch, closing her eyes and enjoying it. After a while, I bid her farewell and walked to the exit.
In the lobby, Garcia greeted me with a slightly flushed face, probably realizing I had squeezed her breast all night. But she kept her calm and bowed her head.
"Good morning, Sir Paladin."
I replied to her greeting with a smile and then instructed her about what to do for today. I also asked her to explain this to the other nuns, giving them their respective duty for today. Especially, I asked Garcia to get Lisa and Lara ready for any intruders after today.
Garcia remembered all my instructions clearly.
"I will also help them to defend the mansion. Please don't worry about your home, Sir Paladin."
"Thank you."
What I needed to do in the mansion was over. Next, I walked out and went to the church. Because Sana had already permitted me to create my own knight squad, I planned to find some talented individuals.
And yes, I planned to have all of them be women. Why? It was my knight squad, after all.
I would create a separate one where it was full of men later. There was also one main reason why I chose to fill my knight squad with all women.
'They won't be able to get affected by Beatrice's charm.'
Reaching the church only took me a few minutes. Sana mentioned there was a training ground where the church knight trained every morning behind the church, so I went straight to that place without even stopping in the main church.
As usual, many nuns and priests greeted me when they saw me walking by. Being famous was good and bad at the same time.
Anyway, I walked at a faster pace and reached the knight training ground. Because I wanted to observe without being bothered, I hid within the shadow near the training ground with [Shadow Cape].
The grounds were expansive, with tall walls surrounding them on all sides. The paved stones as the main training ground were filled with cracks from the hit of a blunt weapon. There were also lots of sword traces here and there.
The air was thick with the sounds of grunts and the clanging of metal as the knights pushed themselves to their limits. They moved with a grace and precision that was almost hypnotic, their bodies honed to perfection by years of training and discipline.
This atmosphere, where the intensity of fighting each other could be felt, piercing my skin, was so nostalgic. Their fights were even more intense than normal training because they weren't afraid of death. However, they were still careful not to kill each other as reviving made you lose 1 Level.
Anyway… the female knights were more than I expected. For 4 knights, there was at least 1 female knight. They were training on the same ground. I also noticed Sophia among them.
"Well, now."
Who should I pick to be the member of my knight squad? At least I wanted 5 female knights, excluding Sophia and Rania.
