Chapter 546 546 Helpful Guardians

They didn\'t do anything as mundane as washing dishes manually here, but keeping the spell running took a fair bit of focus, though very little power. It was a perfect task for a newer Rank One witch learning to control her powers, but it was hard work.

What the helper was about to learn was that keeping a bored Familiar on task was not much easier, it was just less mana intensive.

After the first few renovations, the Guardians had gotten bored. They were only asked to change the colour of walls, small appearance details of furniture, and other things that took mere seconds of adjustments to the Inscriptions that Wolfe had placed in the units, and that was not going to hold their attention all day. 

They had been made to guard the last stand of the Magi against the end of the world, not to cast trivial tweaks for teen witches who wanted pink bedsheets.

But they were loyal Familiars, and as long as their Witch was suffering with them, they were willing to indulge the requests of the residents of the town.

"Lord Magi, I have a suggestion." Cassie\'s Guardian spoke slowly as they left the training area.

"What might that be?" Wolfe asked, curious about what it might want from him.

"I suggest that we randomize the theme aspect of all the rooms, and then everyone can just move into the one that they like best. It\'s not like there is any real sentimental value invested in these locations." 

Cassie looked shocked at the idea, but Wolfe thought it might not be bad. 

"Let\'s head up to the top floor and make an announcement. We can see how many would like to have their rooms randomized, and then we can do the empty units plus any units occupied by volunteers to make up the difference. Just keep it within the realm of themes that the people are likely to enjoy." Wolfe agreed.

"I can do that. I have a listing in my book of all the things that Witches were known to like in the past. I am not certain that they are still relevant, but the basic themes should still suit their personality types." The Guardian agreed, then looked to Cassie for permission.

"Go ahead, I know that a lot of them will go along with it just on the hope of finding somewhere cool and unique. There are plenty of strange personalities in this village." Cassie agreed.

"So we have noticed." The Guardian replied in a dry tone that seemed to echo with disdain.

Wolfe wasn\'t sure who had upset them already, but he suspected that it had something to do with some of the design requests that they had gotten while he was practising the lightning sprite.

The three of them headed up to the main stage, which was now empty of decorations and cleaned in preparation for their next event, then he activated the inscriptions on the stage to make his voice carry.

"Attention everyone. We have a request from the Guardians who are doing the renovations. If you would like to have a randomly created interior, please inform me here at the main stage. They will redecorate the empty suites in various styles, and you are free to move to the one that you feel best suits your personality.

Once you have chosen one, place your hand on the centre of the door, and the locks will be reset to you. Then place a piece of bright cloth in the front window, so that everyone passing by knows that the formerly empty unit is now claimed.

Thank you for your cooperation, and please come to me so that I can get a count of the units we need to alter."

"Is this a good idea?" Priya asked when she saw Wolfe standing on stage.

"Most likely. It\'s going to be absolute chaos for a few days, but I think that we can handle it. Have your counterparts made an estimate of how many units you will need for each personality type?" Wolfe asked the Guardian.

"We have. It is imperfect as a method, but it should be close enough that it will reduce complaints."

Slowly, all eleven of the Rank Three Witches made their way to the stage, while Wolfe kept a running tally of how many people came by to request a randomized room. It was only about a quarter of the whole population, so some either had very specific requests, or they were happy with what they had. That made it easier on everyone, as the empty units were more than the number of units that they had gotten requests to randomize.

"I will let you all take care of the changes. You know more about the styles and fashions than I do." Wolfe informed the Guardians.

"Understood. We will begin the renovations."

"Place a mark on the doors as well, so that people know which ones are renovated inside. That should cut down on the confusion, and you can have it disappear when the unit is claimed." Wolfe suggested.

"Understood. The job is finished, happy hunting, mortals." 

The locals cheered and began to run off to the edges of town where most of the empty units were, searching for just the right place to stay.

All the Mistresses of the Guardians looked at each other with amusement as the cheering and shouting spread through the whole town, informing others of what they had found.

"I think this is actually more chaotic than when we had the extra guests in for the festival. Remind me again why we agreed to their requests?" Priya asked of nobody in particular.

"Because they were bothering you while you were trying to train, and you didn\'t want to snap and stab them, Miss." Her new Familiar responded in a monotone voice.

"That was a rhetorical question, you didn\'t have to answer." She sighed.

Wolfe shook his head at their interaction. "Oh no, I think he did."
