“If you want to socialize with people your age, attending a university would be a good idea because there, you would be able to find people you can connect with and establish a political and social connection with important people in the future but if you’re only looking to increase your knowledge about things like etiquette, general information, geography, and arts and sciences, I would recommend that you find yourself a tutor instead since a tutor could tailor to what you want to learn. I don’t know much about your magic but based on what I saw so far, it’s a different system to what we practice,” Frederick said.

The mage’s advice made Anton think a bit.

“What you said makes sense. I will think about it since the semester is still two weeks away anyway. I imagine that it would be easy for me to join a university if I do decide to enter it because of the status that was given to me by the archmage Voduria as an archmage,” Anton said.

After that discussion, Anton went to his room to think about his next plans. He knew that he couldn’t hide inside his room playing games all day long even though it did make him powerful. It would probably cause him to have psychological problems. After several minutes of thinking about his situation, he decided that the best thing that he could was to do both.

A tutor would be able to fill in the gaps of knowledge that he should have learned when he was younger and the university would be able to fill his social needs to make sure that he would have a healthy personality. He decided to inform his father about his decision once they were established in their new place and since Frederick said that the mansion that they would be checking the next day was a good one, there was a good chance that they would have a new home before the day ends tomorrow.

The next day after breakfast, the whole group followed Frederick and the assistant that Lurien assigned to them to the manor. They needed to use a carriage since it was a bit far from the inn. They were led to what the assistant said the noble section although it was a loose term since there were actually plenty of noble sections in the city due to its size.

When they arrived at the manor, everyone was amazed at the size. The mansion inside the manor was huge and based on its size alone, it could be called a palace already. Although from where they were looking, Frederick was correct, it would need a lot of work.

The manor grounds, once it was fixed, would look beautiful especially if it were filled with trees and flowers and since Anton did have mana water, he knew that planting beautiful flowers wouldn’t be a problem.

Even though the mansion looked a bit dilapidated, If they purchased it they could probably live on the place already and work on the mansion while they were living there.

While they were touring the huge mansion, the assistant was giving the details of the place to Anders much like a realtor showing a house for sale back in Anton’s old world but honestly, those were just from the shows that he’d seen since he actually hadn’t talked to a realtor before.

The mansion was four stories high and there were several master bedrooms on the second and third floor. The dining room and kitchen were huge and there was a ballroom as well. There was a library but sadly, there were no books and they would have to replace all the furniture since everything looked pitiful.

There was a pond at the back and several buildings surrounding the main buildings. Anton heard the assistant telling the others the purpose of those buildings but he wasn’t listening. The assistant was also telling them the situation of the previous owner, which was basically just a family ruined by their head who got addicted to gambling, which was one of the oldest stories in all the land.

The manor also had a huge warehouse where they could store a lot of items so it was truly fitting for them.

“So Anton what do you think?” Anders asked him and everyone was looking at him.

That meant that it was going to be his decision.

“I like it,” Anton simply said and Anna cheered and said that she liked it as well.

Anna then ran off together with her two maids. A couple of guards followed her to make sure that they were safe. They heard her shouting that she would be choosing her room.

Anders told Anton to do the same thing since once he chose a room, they would go back to the inn and ask their employees to find people who could fix the mansion as soon as possible.

The assistant would then lead Anders, Nemina, and Lucas to the government bureau or department that handles the sales of lands in the city of Zalnothel.

Anton just chose a random master bedroom with a view of the park behind the mansion and told Colin who followed him to the room he chose so he could tell Anders.

Once Anton and Anna were done choosing a room for themselves, they returned to where the others were.

Suddenly, Anton remembered something and turned to the man who was helping them with the mansion.

“By the way, this mansion doesn’t happen to have some unsavory reputation like people getting murdered here producing terrifying ghosts that appear at night right?” Anton asked the assistant.

The questions brought a terrified gasp from Anna and her maids but the assistant laughed but stopped when he saw everyone looking at him seriously.

“Sorry but during our travel, we did fight with werewolves, ghosts, vampires, and different types of undead so I’m just making sure,” Anton said although he asked that question to scare his sister.

“I’m sorry sir Archmage, I thought you were joking. This manor doesn’t have such a reputation. The last owner and his family are still in the city somewhere living miserably paying off the debt that they had incurred.”

“Sir Anton is just joking. Everyone knew that even the most terrifying ghost can be vanquished easily by an archmage,” Frederick said to appease Anna and her maids.

Anton then laughed which made Anna glare at him. Even her maids were wearing slight pouts on their faces which made him laugh more.

After that, they went back to the inn while Anders, Nemina, Lucas, and some of the guards followed Frederick and Lurien’s assistant to where they could complete the transaction of purchasing the mansion. Before they left, Anders told Anton to think of the name they would assign to the manor.

That assignment surprised Anton. He knew he was bad at naming so he decided that he would just create a list and let his father choose one from the list of names he would make and if they didn’t find anything they liked, Anton would just tell his father they could name it themselves.

Back in his room, Anton wrote down the names that he thought they could use to name the manor. He thought of the places in Diablo II like the Arcane Sanctuary, or the Halls of the Dead, and knew that he couldn’t use any of them since the names from the game would either be too esoteric or too scary.

He then thought of his last name on Earth which was Saunders and thought of naming the manor after it but changing it a bit like The Sunders Manor. It sounded good to him so he wrote it down. Anton couldn’t think of any more names so he decided to list some of the spells from the game like The Oak Sage Manor or The Spirit Wolf Manor. The Blizzard Manor sounded good to him too.

After a while, there were more than a dozen names on the list and all of them were based on the game. Almost all of them were ridiculous to name a Manor with but since Anton couldn’t think of anything normal and their family didn’t have a last name, he decided to just discuss it with his father when he returned.
