We prepared for the interviews
As we left the room, a butler helped with carrying the documents while Mr. Soldan spoke to Ms. Lyra.
Apparently, the two were acquainted. According to the conversation, Mr. Soldan visited the orphanage every few months to see how things were going.
And so he knew quite a few of the children there. Also, Claire would also come here to interview the people when hiring them for the mansion.
“Mr. Takumi, it is this way. They will enter from that door, so keep an eye on it.”
“Yes, I understand. …That is a nice chair.”
“Well, you are the one hiring them. So it should be a good chair. Though, you cannot see it well due to the desk…”
We entered the meeting room and made preparations. Though, I just waited silently, while Sebastiation and the butlers did everything.
The chair I would be sitting in was large and had arm rests.
As for the chairs that the other people would be sitting on, they were very simple, foldable chairs made of wood.They were all lined up so that the people would be facing me. The idea of being the center of attention made me feel a little nervous.
This was not the kind of interview I had imagined, where we would meet one person at a time.
I had some doubts about whether I could handle all of this. Thankfully, Sebastian would be here to help me.
“Mr. Takumi. Please use this.”
“Another list?”
“Yes. We have just confirmed the people who have gathered today. So this is a list of everyone.”
As I sat in my seat, feeling a little anxious, Sebastian placed more documents on the desk in front of me.
“So there are fewer people than on the previous list?”
“Well, that included people from other territories as well. But not all of them could come today. After all, it can take a long time to travel here.”
“I see… Hmm…”
I looked through the list while talking to Sebastian.
Not everyone had a horse, and so considering the time it would take, it was no surprise that some people could not come today.
“Well, I cannot remember everything… But what are these numbers?”
“That is why you should be checking the list while interviewing them. As for the numbers, they can be used to call each person. As everyone who is here has been assigned a number.”
Well, if that was the way they did things in this world, then I should follow it.
And so I looked through the list while talking with Sebastian and continuing with the preparations… However, even though I tried not to think about it, my eyes went to the corner of the room…
“…Is Mr. Soldan always like that?”
“I have not been in this position many times, but yes. That being said, when you saw him in his study earlier, Mr. Takumi…he was actually on the more mild side.”
“Oh, he was?”
“Yes. Because I talked with him before when making the request. And I told him that we would not have much time to talk. Well, he still talked quite a lot, because it was the first time that he had met you, Mr. Takumi…”
