Event 64: North Wing

Haruta and Asuna entered the hallway of the north wing, this hallway was much wider than the one Haruta was used to, it had several rooms just like in the east wing.

"It seems like it's just another residential hallway ..." Haruta said opening the doors to look at the rooms that didn't seem very different from what he was used to.

"It seems?" Asuna asked upon hearing Haruta's words

"When I was a child my parents did not want to use the whole house since there were only the three of us and because of this we always stayed in the east wing, after my mother passed away I was registered in Totsuki and I did not return until two months ago, I never had the opportunity to explore everything "Haruta said sincerely, both the current Haruta and the original Haruta knew nothing about this house and much less about their own family roots" But now that I am here I want to explore everything "

"I agree, it's like we're in a haunted house" Asuna said smiling as Haruta's face changed color slightly.

"Sigh ... we better continue exploring, I hope to find something interesting at least" Haruta continued looking in the rooms checking the drawers in case of finding something good, it was for when he opened an old briefcase inside a shelf that was surprised "Money! " Haruta exclaimed happily picking up a wad of bills

"Its a lot of money!" Haruta exclaimed contentedly looking at all the money in his hands "Whoever has lived in this place before I must sincerely thank for everything" Haruta thanked formally bowing.

On the other hand Asuna was looking at the other rooms, soon she found a sliding door farther from the rest of the rooms, when she entered another surprise she was "A bathroom?" Asuna asked looking at the decoration around her.

"It seems to be a luxury bathroom" said Haruta appearing next to Asuna who was still looking at the bathroom.

"It is certainly a bathroom, but this is very large and everything is made of marble. This must cost a fortune not to mention that everything is hand carved" Asuna was impressed by how elegant the bathroom located in Haruta's house turned out to be.

Haruta was now stunned, looking at the bathroom from left to right thinking of Asuna's words "President ... did you say this should cost a fortune?" Haruta asked trembling slightly.

"Yes, not even my family can afford to have a bathroom of this magnitude" Asuna said innocently as Haruta turned her gaze towards the ceiling

"Why was I working all this time then ... if only I had dedicated myself to exploring all the limits of this house" Haruta complained, remembering how he saved money to survive and how he restrained himself by buying skills in the system, even making a financial plan based on Mahouka's release and his future as a writer of light novels "Sigh ..." Haruta sighed wearily.

They both checked the bathroom for anything else that couldn't be seen with the naked eye, they found several dragons made of marble with open mouths used mainly as the way for water to be poured into the bathroom.

"It only requires a little work and this could be operational, a bath in this place will be the same as taking a thousand baths in a normal tub, it is worth all my effort" said Haruta posing his hand on his chin deciding the focus of his effort, Haruta's expression could only cause grace to Asuna since not many times can she see that expression in Haruta.

"If we work together we take a couple of days to have the bathroom ready" Asuna said interfering in the Haruta monologue

"Wait president, you are my guest and you cannot work while you are in my house" said Haruta flatly refusing as he crossed his arms decidedly

"I can not accept it!" Asuna exclaimed angrily "You are giving me a roof to stay in and you even cook for me, the least I can do is help you clean your house"

Seeing how determined Asuna was to help clean up for Haruta, it was impossible for her to refuse, even more when she remembered the state of the corridors and the neglected garden, thinking about it, she remembered that there were still two complete wings without checking and right now the north wing was not yet completely overhauled.

"Sigh ..." Haruta sighed and then gave in to Asuna's request "Well, allow the president to help me with this problem" Haruta said making Asuna smile slightly with satisfaction.

Both left the bathroom only to continue the tour, finding in front of the bathroom a living room with several sofas made of leather, all covered with plastics so that the dust does not filter, it is worth mentioning that there were also some rustic furniture that caught the attention of the couple but after the bath it was already difficult to be surprised.

By the time they both reached the end of the north wing there was another large salt this time much larger than usual compared to the space used in the restaurant, the entire room had tables where a hundred people could easily fit.

"The bathroom, the rooms, this dining room ..... with this it is clear to me that many people lived here" said Haruta looking at the dining room while he noticed to see if everything was still firm "But I keep wondering why my parents they didn't want to use all this to make the restaurant "

Asuna was in the kitchen looking at all the kitchen utensils which not only seemed fine enough but were also all made by hand, as if they were forged to be in that kitchen.

It only needs to be mentioned that the variety of utensils was impeccable, there were different knives, spatulas, forks and there was even a pale white Mezzaluna that caught Asuna's attention.

"What are you waiting for? Let's just take it" said Haruta appearing again out of nowhere, Asuna just stared at him "what ?, it's just a knife ..... I already have one of those, just take it as a gift" Haruta said smiling urging that Asuna take the knife.
