Altair surveyed the damage of her room after knocking out the scholarly kid. She had broken a vase on the large boy's arms in order to get a good chance to take him down quickly but, other than that, everything seemed to be fine. There was some blood on the ground from the fight she just went through was obvious on the white flooring of her room.
All in all, Altair felt a little unsatisfied. She was breathing heavily already as she had burned almost all of her Mana in the fight and her limbs were tired already. She had only been fighting for maybe five minutes and she was already this tired. Her condition was still far away from what she used to be.
Altair moved to leave her room. She wanted to get some proper exercise because she had to get her body in good condition. She still intended to get back to her home at soon as possible and, even if it took a while, she would need to make her body stronger. If she did get back there and she was weaker than before she doubted she could deal with that degenerate Human she came across. She was already set on killing that man. It was one of the main reasons she wanted to get stronger right now. Of course she couldn't deny that having more Mana in her current situation would be really nice as well. She could barely use her magic as it was.
When she walked out of her room she was greeting with Ben and Dave's concerned expressions. When the two guards saw the condition the room was in, along with the Young Master and his friends laid out on the ground unmoving, their eyes went as wide as saucers. They had heard the sounds of fighting inside but they also heard was said in the room too. They assumed it was a duel until they heard the ear-piercing scream that came from inside. Still, unless they were called in they couldn't go in. The Young Master had forbid them from entering and since they were no longer allowed to stop him from going in they couldn't do anything about it. They were greatly worried that the Young Master was harming the Young Miss again and were wondering how they were going to explain things to the Master later.
When they saw that everyone else had been knocked down and that Altair appeared to be unharmed, they were flabbergasted.
Altair ignored their looks and turned her head to Ben. She then spoke in a tone that hinted at everything not being her problem, "Ben make sure that Stacey and Noel clean up my room before I get back." She cast a glance over her shoulder before adding, "And be sure to take the children out as well. I don't want them making a mess of things while I'm gone."
Ben looked at her incredulously but Altair ignored it and instead turned to address Dave, "Dave take me outside. I want to get some exercise."
Dave gave her the same look that Ben was giving as he hesitantly said, "Uh, Young Miss that-"
Altair could figure that he wanted to ask something about what happened in the room before. However, she didn't want to talk about that waste of time at all. She spoke in an annoyed tone with a hint of finality to it as she said, "Nevermind, I'll find my own way." She then turned and started walking down the hall.
The fight she had was very unsatisfying for her. They were so bad at fighting and, other than the large boy; they were a joke to deal with. She couldn't get rid of the grievances that she had towards Joshua with just that much. She really wanted to kill that twerp but it wouldn't be good for her future here if she actually did that. So she resisted the urge to do so.
Dave and Ben exchanged looks before Dave quickly followed after Altair. They still had the job of guarding Altair so he couldn't let her wander around alone. They also needed to make sure that the Young Master got medical attention, so Ben had to stay behind to check on them.
Altair didn't bother to ask for directions as she heard Dave following behind her. She was just heading outside. It shouldn't be too hard to find an exit if she just went in one direction. The mansion was huge but it wasn't infinite in size. So Altair walked forward without hesitation and without knowing if she was going the right way.
Along the way she passed several other servants who spared her a glance and nothing more. She also passed by people armed with those strange weapons she had seen and experienced earlier. They watched her with wary eyes when she walked by them but quickly smiled when they faced Dave.
Altair herself looked at them with interest. Every time she came across someone they were doing things with contraptions she couldn't figure out. The servants were just cleaning the rooms as they usually did but Altair found it difficult to pull her eyes away. She also saw more of those Holodisplay screens that Renald had showed her before on the way. She couldn't help but try to touch them, only to have her hand pass right through the display. It was a surreal feeling to her. The things she saw on them looked so real but when she tried to touch them it was like they were made of air. Altair had no idea how these things worked or what they were even for.
The servants who saw Altair messing with a Holodisplay screen couldn't help but laugh amongst themselves. They only ever saw children under the age of five do such things and that was if it was their first time seeing such things. Seeing an older girl do the same things made them laugh at her. It was like she had come from a place where such things never existed.
The servants seeing Altair act in such a way caused a rumor to spread throughout the mansion. Only the servants, guards, and the lady of the house, Sarah, knew about it. The rumors all pointed to how the new Young Miss was incredibly innocent and naïve for her age. They all wondered how she would be treated when she resumed going back to school.
Dave was also one of them that laughed at her, at least in his mind he did. He found it more adorable than anything though. He had been keep watch over Altair since she came to the mansion and found that she was just far more immature than other children her age. He had wondered why his Master had decided to add her to the main family line with how strange she was. Of course he no longer thought that when he saw what she did to the Young Master and all of his friends. He knew how special the Young Master was so even he could tell that Altair was going to be an absolute behemoth later in life. His Master had probably already known that and that was why he decided to add her.
Due to the shock of what Altair had just done, Dave had forgotten about what Joshua had done to Altair in the past.
Altair was completely unaware her image amongst the workers of the house was being ruined by her actions. When she was done being frustrated at not understanding how the screen worked, Altair continued to look for the way out of the house. Her workout plan was simple. She was just going to run around the outside of the mansion. If there was a path she would take it. If there wasn't then she would just run through the grass that seemed to surround the house for as far as the eye could see. The mansion was huge so running around it should be more than enough for Altair to get a satisfying workout.
After walking in a single direction for several minutes, Altair finally came to a wall that ended the path she was on. She could no longer continue in that direction but there was still no proper exit she could take to get outside. There were windows along the wall and the path split in two on both sides of her, but that was it. She couldn't go out the windows because she honestly didn't know how to open them. They didn't push open like the windows she was used to. That transparent material that made up the windows baffled Altair almost as much as the Holodisplay screens.
However Altair knew that if she took one of the paths on her side, since it was a path that went around the outer edge of the mansion, it should lead her to an exit. So Altair went to her right and started walking. The whole way she looked out the windows on her left to see the outside she had limited time seeing since she got here. She could also make out a path that seemed to wind around that side of the mansion as she walked on. She didn't see any workers taking care of the plants outside the mansion though and wondered how everything was kept trim and neat.
With how many there were around the mansion it would have taken months and thousands of workers in her own world to manage the same thing. In fact, the workers would never be allowed to stop. They would have to take care of a new section of the field every single day in order to maintain such a condition.
Altair eventually came to a corner of the mansion and the corner had two large doors that seemed to be made of wood on it. Without hesitating, Altair pushed on the door to open it because there was no handle that she was used to. The door didn't budge.
Dave laughed lightly behind her while trying to be stealthy about it. The door that Altair was trying to open had a panel next to it with several buttons to open, close, lock, and other actions related to the door. All Altair had to do was push the open button and the door would open. The problem was that the panel was closed and just looked like a discolored box next to the door. Altair thought it was just how the wall was decorated and nothing more. Dave wasn't one who would point this out without being asked to do so though. He also found it entertaining to watch Altair struggle with something so simple. It reminded him of his own child and he just couldn't bring himself to end his entertainment on his own. So he could only watch as Altair scratched her head and examined the door from top to bottom.
Altair surveyed the damage of her room after knocking out the scholarly kid. She had broken a vase on the large boy's arms in order to get a good chance to take him down quickly but, other than that, everything seemed to be fine. There was some blood on the ground from the fight she just went through was obvious on the white flooring of her room.
