In K417, the Teleport Incident occurs causing the citizens of Buena Village to be teleported randomly through out the Human World. Three years later, Rudeus manages to return to Buena Village but all that is left are the ruins of their house and the village is abandoned. Rudeus then decides to head to the northern regions of the Central Continent to search for his missing families. [3]

Rudeus eventually receives news that Zenith has been located and ceases his search and at the suggestion of Elinalise Dragonroad, he goes to Ranoa Magic Academy to continue his studies where he eventually reunites with Sylphiette.[4] With plans of marrying her, Rudeus decides to look for a house to settle down and finds a listing for one that is rumored to be haunted. Due to his reputation as "Rudeus the Quagmire" and also listing his guarantors to be Ariel Anemoi Asura and Badigadi, he managed to lower the price of the house. Still interested in buying the house despite being haunted, Rudeus is assisted by Zanoba Shirone and Cliff Grimoire to exorcise the house which turns out that the ghost is an automated doll. [5]
Layout[]
With the house "exorcised", Rudeus begins renovations and hires Balda of the Great Cave for the repairs and to avoid further expenses, Rudeus also provided the materials for the repairs with his Earth Magic. From Balda's inspection he describes the floor to be oddly well made but the walls and ceiling are shoddy as if the basement is the most important part of the house and everything else is just extra. [6]
Exterior[]
"I picked a color close to your original hair for the roof. You might not have liked your hair, but I really did."
-Rudeus to Sylphiette
- The Greyrat House in Sharia is located at the Student District of the city, built over a century ago that has an untended garden; walls, ceiling had water damage; roof leaking during rains and walls shrouded in moss and shriveled vines making it look more like an abandoned ruin than a house. After the renovation, the walls and stones are polished and cleaned with the roof painted bright green.[6]
Door[]
- The Front Doors were knocked down by Zanoba when they exorcised the house so Rudeus replaced it with double doors made of expensive wood shaved down to fit the frame and the outside slab has a knocker in the form of a lion head. A Magic Circle is also drawn at the edge of the door as a security measure that causes a loud noise if the door is forced open which echoes throughout the house. [6]
Main Hall[]
"I decided to buy only the bare essentials of furniture for now. Perhaps it was just the Japanese part of me talking, but I felt like I should save the rest for myself and Sylphie to decide on together."
-Rudeus[7]
- Beyond the front door is the main hall that has a stairs leading to the second floor and behind it is another stairs to the basement while the doors on each side leads to the living rooms. Despite the hall being in ruins, it has excellent natural lightings.[5] After the renovation, the ceilings has been restored with bright wooden panels that eliminates the concern of water leaking when it rains.
Bathroom[]

- Before the renovation, the bathroom is a second kitchen later converted to a bathroom since it was initially used for washing so most of the bathroom's plumbing are kept in tact since most of its interior structure does not appear to be used much but the floorings are replaced from stones to tiles and has a large tub is placed at the end of the room. The bathroom in the house was made at the request of Rudeus that is normally seen in the house of nobilities[6]which also caused rumors about him that despite his carelessness for his clothing, he loved cleanliness and bathed almost everyday.[8]
Living Room[]
- The Greyrat House has 2 living rooms which is a large, warm family-oriented room. The room has a 3 seater sofa, 2 single seater sofa around the fireplace and a nearby jug and water that gives the feeling of a relaxing home.[6]
Kitchen[]
Rudeus and Sylphy in the Kitchen
- Before the renovation, the Greyrat House has 2 kitchens but only the first 1 has a kiln giving the impression that it was 2 houses merged into one. After the renovation, the kiln is refurbished and the kitchen also hosted an assortment of the newest cooking equipment, a counter large enough to butcher an entire boar and a cooking stove with a gigantic pot. There are also casks, jars and other sorts of containers for storage purposes.[6]
Basement[]

- The Basement is initially where the automated doll stays when inactive at a hidden room. After Rudeus moves into the house, he turns the basement to be his private study while the hidden room becomes the shrine for her Goddesses and their relics. Aisha eventually discovers the shrine and uses it to as a means to get what she wants such as getting Rudeus to agree in keeping Beat as their pet.[9]
- Hitogami attempted to manipulate Rudeus in to releasing the mouse infected with Magic Stone Disease but he was stopped by an old man before he could enter the basement.[10]
