The laundry room... This was the place where the maids sorted dirty clothes and prepared items for washing. However, the water used for daily washing was also drawn from here, so every morning, this place became a bit crowded.
The laundry maids would converse with each other, and gather interesting tidbits from the few personal maids... In other words, they engaged in gossip, which would be punishable in the empire.
But in the Demon King Territory, this seemed to have become normalized... Perhaps it was because the maids here understood the limits, and the gossip never got too outrageous.
It could also be because the leaders of the Demon King Territory conducted themselves with integrity and had little fear of idle chatter... Truth tends to anger nobles much more than rumors, so much that they cannot help but scold to put a stop to it.
"Tipcapu! Long time no see!"
