Seeing his new house reminded Robin of his previous one. He had left his stable income just to rebuild his mother's house in the countryside.the house that held so many memories. The painstaking work he put into rebuilding it now distant memory. He didn’t know what condition the house was in anymore. The last thing he remembered was before its half destroyed state. This memory made his heart ache.
He stood in front of the new mansion for a bit. This new home was not as grand as the main family house but it's still impressive. There were few guards with the family embalmed guarding the main gate. Following Oliver, robin entered the estate.
It was like one of those houses you build after retirement as a rich guy.
Robin asked Oliver to give him a tour of the mansion.
Oliver call a butler from inside and gave him the duty of the tour. The trio followed the butler for a tour of the mansion.

Stepping outside, the outdoor rest area is located in the corner of the garden, featuring comfortable chairs arranged around a small table perfect for afternoon tea. This shaded spot, with climbing plants and soft greenery, serves as a peaceful escape for casual gatherings or moments of quiet reflection.

Chickens roam freely, and a small vegetable garden grows near the barn, supplying the household with fresh produce.
In the house backyard there is a small training area with a small shooting range.
Various training dummies are arranged to practice one's skill.
Bordering the shooting range is a piece of forest that belongs to the estate which robin wanted offering an untouched, natural sanctuary where wildlife thrives. The estate’s perimeter is surrounded by a tall, wrought-iron fence providing both privacy and protection. Strategically positioned along the fence and around the property are several high-definition CCTV cameras that feed directly into the mansion’s security room, ensuring 24/7 surveillance. Hidden sensors and motion-detecting lights add an additional layer of security, blending seamlessly into the landscape.
This entire estate feels like a world of its own. Oliver didn't disappoint him . The house is like as he wanted.
After finishing the tour of the mansion robin asked Oliver to call all the staff's of the house. He as the new owner of the house he has a morale duty to talk with them.
Robin stood tall at the balcony of his grand ballroom, looking down at the gathered staff. The room, adorned with elegant chandeliers and beautiful carpet floor, reflected the significance of the moment.Oliver, had gathered everyone together—a total of 17 staff members, two butlers, three maids, two chefs, six guards, and four gardeners and farm keepers.
Although he didn't wanted that many people but this many people are minimum requirements for the mansion to keep function said Oliver.
Robin wonderd if this mansions need minimum of 17 staff to function then how many staff the main house have.
Robin's eyes swept over them, sensing the weight of his new responsibility as the owner of his estate. His black hair fell slightly over his forehead, his reddish-brown eyes filled with determination and responsibilities.
Taking a deep breath, Robin began his speech.
"Thank you all for being here today. I know many of you have served the main household long before I came here."
He paused for a moment, choosing his words carefully.
"I won’t pretend I know everything about this world , nor will I claim to have all the answers. But what I do know is that this house, and all of you, will be part of this. The William family had a big history that i couldn't even imagine hope you guys will help me and advice me not to tarnish the houses reputation ."
Robin looked towards Oliver, who gave a small nod of approval. "I expect hard work, loyalty, and dedication, but in return, you will have my trust and respect. Although i don't question your loyalty to the William house but here your subject of loyalty have to be me."
There was a collective murmur of approval as Robin concluded his speech. Robin lifted the wine glass that was given to him by Oliver and said with a joyful tone " For the new begging of the estate. Cheers!"
After his big monologue he quietly left the room , Oliver followed from behind.
" So how was my performance" robin asked.
" It was great for a first timer , most of the staff's are from main household they train their whole adulthood to be a staff of the main house. Being transferred here seems like a demotion for them. But you speech gave them a moral boost. It'll help you to gain respect and loyalty from them" Oliver replied.
With a smile robin went to the master bedroom. When his body touched the bed his eyes shut down automatically.
