Nobles (Part I)

"My lord. These are all the slaves we have picked out." The head butler had gathered five people.

All five were neatly dressed, assuming they had cleaned up before they arrived, with three males and two females.

"Have you checked if they're qualified to do my work?" I didn't want to waste time talking to them if they weren't capable.

"Some of these slaves were former nobles. I have checked their qualifications, and I judge them capable enough to do your paperwork." The head butler gave his honest thoughts.

"Very well. You five, starting tomorrow, will start working. Food, shelter, and a comfortable sleeping space will be provided."

"You will be working eight hours a day, and for the remaining time, it doesn't matter as long as it doesn't cause me trouble. Any questions?"

"Master... As for very important matters, how will we deal with them?" One of the slaves asked, and seeing his reluctance to call me master, I could tell he was a former noble.
