Wearing a cheongsam that accentuated her mature charm, Windsor swayed her hips and approached Hoshino Sora with graceful, lotus-like steps, then noticed Merchant Xingchen following by his side.
Seeing the little girl's cute face, Windsor's mouth fell open in disbelief. She looked at Hoshino Sora with shocked eyes, a flurry of thoughts racing through her mind.
"She is my newly accepted apprentice. You, what on earth are you thinking about!"
Hoshino Sora could see what Windsor was thinking and, feeling annoyed, reached out to flick her on the forehead.
Windsor felt relieved after hearing Hoshino Sora's words. She gave a playful smile and then, right in front of Erina Nakiri, naturally linked her arm with his, acting quite intimate.
"I'm perfectly normal; I wasn't thinking anything weird! This little girl must be incredibly talented to become Master's disciple. What brings Master here this time? Are you here to inspect the new changes in the Gourmet Manor?"
As she asked, she rubbed her body against Hoshino Sora's arm. The smooth texture of her cheongsam was incredibly alluring. Since it was summer, Windsor was glistening with sweat, emitting a faint, grassy fragrance.
Erina Nakiri, holding Merchant Xingchen's hand with her other hand, couldn't help but twitch her eyebrows at the sight. However, she didn't say anything; after all, she could tell that the relationship between Windsor and Hoshino Sora was far from just a simple master-servant dynamic.
Besides, she had already had Hoshino Sora all to herself for over a month; one should know when to be satisfied. Thinking of this, Erina Nakiri wore the smile of a victor.
However, she quickly regained her composure, becoming her usual aloof and ethereal self. Getting too carried away would surely invite divine retribution!
"I came to take a quick look at the changes in the Gourmet Manor, but my main goal is to return to China through the Dimensional Restaurant. The restaurant I ordered to be built should be completed by now, right?"
Feeling the softness pressing tightly against his arm, Hoshino Sora kept a calm expression on the surface, but his mind began to wander. Windsor's mature charm was incredibly alluring—like a perfectly ripe peach, she gave off the vibe of a captivating young matron.
"It's already finished. Let me take you on a tour of everything."
With a gentle voice, Windsor walked and introduced the current state of the Gourmet Manor to Hoshino Sora, covering the terrain, commercial layout, and even the living quarters of the beautiful women.
In the current Gourmet Manor, the girls work in shifts. Everyone has at least two days of rest per week and works a standard eight-hour day. This was strictly mandated by Hoshino Sora so that they could live better and happier lives within the manor.
Thanks to this policy, the girls are highly motivated in their work, pouring their energy into the fields and contributing significantly to agricultural development.
Furthermore, in the ranch and aquaculture base, thanks to everyone's efforts in selective breeding, the number of mutant creatures has been increasing, with a 9:1 ratio of beneficial to harmful mutations.
The Dimensional Restaurant has been expanded and now spans three floors. The first and second floors are dining halls, while the third floor consists entirely of private rooms with a minimum spending requirement. The kitchen area has also been enlarged.
Beyond that, Windsor reported everything that had happened in the manor to Hoshino without holding anything back. Hoshino Sora, however, listened with little interest; he found it quite tedious.
Finally, he waved his hand dismissively.
"I'm officially appointing you as the City Lord of Xingye City. From now on, you are in charge of everything here, big or small. You don't need to report to me unless it's something important. I'm delegating all authority to you."
Seeing Windsor, who had been talking until her throat was parched, Hoshino Sora made this decision. After all, she was his woman, and with her status as a slave, it was impossible for her to ever betray him.
Entrusting Xingye City to her was undoubtedly the best choice. It saved him time and effort, while simultaneously bolstering her authority and making it easier for her to manage, which was a win-win situation!
"Understood. Then let me manage this place for you!"
Windsor's eyes lit up at Hoshino Sora's words. Was he giving her even more authority?
"I'll manage the city, and you can manage me~"
There was no doubt about it! After all, Hoshino Sora trusted her so much. Thinking of this, Windsor immediately gave him a sweet kiss and then spoke in an incredibly suggestive tone.
As she spoke, she guided Hoshino Sora's hand onto her body. Her eyes were practically melting with desire, and she was so filled with seduction that she was practically saying it outright.
"By the way, I see the girls are all quite hot. Have the dwarves lay wiring throughout the Gourmet Manor and install air conditioning. The shops need it too; otherwise, it's unbearably stifling."
After staying in the Gourmet Manor for a while, Hoshino Sora also felt irritable from the heat. The weather here was indeed difficult; being in the middle of summer without air conditioning was quite uncomfortable.
"Alright, we're heading back to China for now. I'll come to see you again in a few days. From now on, you are the City Lord of this city. Work hard; I hope to hear their praise for you the next time I visit."
Looking at the town before him, it wouldn't take long for it to evolve into a major city. Unfortunately, there were no indigenous people in the Gourmet Manor, so the population had always remained stagnant.
Furthermore, because there were no men, they would eventually go extinct after a few hundred years. This didn't seem right. Was it really time to initiate that plan?
Watching the beautiful women moving about the town, not a single one was unattractive. Each of them, if placed in the outside world, would at the very least be one-in-a-hundred beauties. Some of those with special abilities were even one-in-a-thousand stunners!
It would be a real pity to let such girls simply fade away. Injecting them with a Gourmet Cell could allow them to live forever and achieve immortality. When the time came, he would ask for their input, explain the situation, and those who were willing could receive a Gourmet Cell seed from him.
However, only those who had contributed to the Gourmet Manor would be eligible to receive a Gourmet Cell seed.
"Safe travels, Master. Windsor will be waiting for you in the manor."
Windsor couldn't help but feel a little disappointed at Hoshino Sora's words, as she hadn't received his favor immediately. But she didn't feel discouraged, because he had promised to come back for her.
Soon, Hoshino Sora led Erina Nakiri and Merchant Xingchen into the newly expanded Dimensional Restaurant. The place was truly different; the magnificent, golden decor that greeted them upon entry took him by surprise.
