"It's good to see that you care so much about my well being. You know, if you keep this up I might actually make you my slave-wife." You teased.

"Quite so." Ayane backed you up with a smile, then turned to Yumi. "He is ideal Master, isn't he?"

"I'm- well-" Yumi puffed up her cheeks in outrage. "It's about time I was acknowledged for my powers by such lowly mortals!"

After more meaningless smalltalk and banter the three of you return to Cinnamon Inn.

"Master!" Herta is the first to greet to you, and she is quickly followed by the rest of your wives. They seem to have been waiting for you near the entrance.

A mousegirl was sweeping the floor, minding her own business, notably staying away from Cattleya. Herta pivots and motions to her, and said mousegirl glances at you and, with a sweet smile, turns around and goes into the kitchen.

And from there she got out a small blueprint. It was completely blank. But with a quick use of your Appraisal you found that it was actually a finely crafted artifact that could store at least ten designs in it.

"We were, like," Bertha said, "Super grateful that you let us have some more gold!"

"And for everything else you've done for us..." Gerty continued.

"So, we pooled together five coins each to get this for ya!" Mel finished.

"Hope you like it, guv." Cattleya meowed.

"Thank you, girls." You could already see how less cluttered your workbench would be. "But really, this yukata was good enough of a gift, you ladies could've spent it on your own things." Bertha beams at the compliment you gave to her sewing. "But still, this was a pretty nice surprise."

"See? I knew my gallant Master would've found delight in it~" Ruby spoke in her smoky voice. "It took a while to find something useful with said budget, but my schemes have payed off~"

"This was a group effort, Master." Gerty clarified.

"It helped that it was on sale!" Bertha blurted out, causing the others to give you some sheepish looks.

But no matter the emotional whiplashes and kimono wearing interludes, the day moved forward. You next decided to...

>Go to the stores. There's these apothecaries Nicodemus talked to you about. Maybe get some potions and materials along the way too.
>Ayane spoke in passing about meeting some of these 'connections'. You think you saw one or two of these in the wake today.
>Visit a guild. (Which? You know about the Adventurer, Merchant, and Artisan Guilds. But there are other smaller guilds like the Mage's Guild or the Apothecary Guild, among others)
>Look around for some houses you could purchase in this city. Ayane and Ruby worked together to find a selection.
>Go snooping around, as usual. Rostchilde was obviously making some moves, and you suspected there was more happening than what met the eye. (Go now or at night? Bring any of your wives along?)
>You remembered that there was an Academy in Centria thanks to a passing mention of it in Nicodemus' ramblings. It would be interesting to check out.
