Just as noble children are treated differently according to their rank, so are their followers. The servants wait in the waiting room while the masters are taking classes, which also depends on the rank of the house they serve.

The royal and three marquis valet rooms prepared this year are the best. There is a desk for each person, and you can use paper and ink. It is a truly luxurious environment next to the nap room.

In addition, tea and sweets are also available at the highest quality. This is not for the squire, but for the master.

Speaking of what the servants are doing in such waiting rooms, in fact, there is little to do.

Even though he is a prince and a servant of the Three Marquis families, his younger brother has no job other than studying. He is known for his servant's work.

Even more, if you live in a dormitory, there is no way to hold a tea ceremony. The servants will spend more free time than at home.

Of course, depending on the feelings of the servant, some, like Leon, consider it a good opportunity for self-study.

All of Axmia's servants are those who are eagerly spreading books on their desks and running pens. They have a reason to do so.

It is the same with the House of Axmia that the servant of the son will be the future custodian. And there was no single servant attached to Lancelot, the legitimate child of the Axmia lords. It has three servants.

Of course, it doesn't mean that taking care of Lancelot is that hard. As long as you are a candidate for future patriotism, you need to compete.

The target is the House of Fatiras, Charlotte's maids. The maids have no future career. There is no position at all, but for them they mean that they are late.

Their hope is to find a good marriage partner and quit the maid, as opposed to her career.

What do they do?

"Hey, why are you wearing an eye patch?"

For the time being, I was trying to approach the most beautiful Lion in the waiting room from a familiar place.

Rion is a pretty good opponent if he doesn't know the truth. If you are a marquis, you can live better than a poor aristocrat, and you have power.

"I can't see well after getting injured. The doctor told me to rest my eyes as much as possible."

"Is it injured? Was it hurt?"

"I don't know how it looks, but it may be."

"I don't know how it looks."

Hearing Lion's reply, a smile appears on the face of the maid. It is not the eyesight that matters to the maid, but its appearance.

"You, what's your name?"

"Rion"

"Yes, I'm Milia."

"Oh, I am. Margaret."

"Sylvia"

"Milia, Margaret, and Sylvia. Thank you."

““ ………… ””

Rion smiles and the three maids fall in love with her. They are three older than Rion, but they're crazy for older mature women.

She intends to make a light invitation, but her heart is completely captured by Lion.

"Oh, hey!

"What is it?"

"Did you know about delicious dessert restaurants?"

"I'm not very familiar"

"so……"

The servant's attempt to reach a date, using the teaching of the store as an excuse, was unsuccessful.

"Vincent likes sweets, so I'd like to find out, but it's embarrassing to go alone for desserts."

"Then I'll tell you!"

"really?"

"Yeah. I know good shops. I think they'll love you because it's special. I'll guide you next time to try it."

"... Is that annoying?"

"Okay! I have to help each other when I'm in trouble!"

"Then, let's just say something."

"I know!"

After seeing Milia's success, Margaret immediately spoke out.

"eh?"

"I know, I'll guide you."

"Yes, thank you"

"Well then, when?"

"Hey! I promised you first!"

"Isn't the date promised yet?-I've heard it first!"

"What's that!?"

"Noisy!"

It was one of Axmia's servants who yelled at the shouting maid. However, they were not scared maids.

"If you are noisy, why not go to the library and study?"

"What did you say!?"

"This is a communal waiting room. We have no obligation to endure speaking for you."

"I'm studying seriously! It's not like you're talking silly!"

"It's not sloppy. It's important to deepen your interaction with your servants."

"Interaction? What makes you happy to be surrounded by women?"

"Huh?"

Suddenly, Rion is surprised when she is turned away. It was one of the things that made me angry, so I guess I couldn't help but it was too abrupt.

"The servants of the House of Winheels are easygoing. If you're talking to a maid, you'll work."

"... Vincent's insistence"

"How do you talk to the maid?

"You have to be gentle on women. Vincent always says so."

Without letting the man talk to the end, Rion continued.

"... is that Vincent gentle on women?"

"Isn't the abandonment rude to Vincent-sama? If it's courtesy of the Axmia lords, do you agree with that?"

"... No, but Viscount Vincent gave the woman .... So you apologized to the commoners?"

Lancelot's servant said that he was having trouble with a female student. This is something that Rion wanted to talk about.

"What are you talking about? I apologized for nothing because I wanted to be kind to a woman."

"However?"

"Are you sure you want to ask here?"

"What?"

"Because you are a servant of the House of Axmia, you would have been there and listened to the story."

"... Oh, I was listening."

The man acknowledged after doing a little thought.

"Do you remember what Vincent was paying attention to the schoolgirl?"

"Caution? I remember shouting, but ..."

The servant does not remember the impressive events of just a few days ago. Rion wondered, but decided to speak for himself rather than asking.

"... The schoolgirl was putting a lot of luggage on the street, so I was careful to take her away."

"... Oh, it's luggage. It was big luggage."

"Do you remember that?"

"Oh, because we brought it into the carriage."

"I have something to ask about that too."

"What?"

"The schoolgirl is a commoner. She was a commoner and had her Viscount Lancelot carry her luggage. Why didn't she blame it?"

"... Sure. Why?"

Seriously, Rion's servant was asked to look at another servant with a strange face. The reaction between them is similar. My head is wondering.

"The schoolgirl was bothering others. I don't know why Vincent, who noticed that, was being told badly. More specifically, that schoolgirl shouted at Vincent. I think it's the same or even more rude thing I did to Viscount Lancelot. ''

"That's right ..."

In a world where the status system is severe, it is impossible for ordinary people to yell at the nobles. It is common knowledge in the world that nobles who place importance on the status system, even if they have no refuge, declare that the commoner is bad.

Why did the opposite rumor spread? After hearing of Lancelot's followers, Rion became increasingly unknown.

"That woman"

"Yes?"

It was Milia who came in to talk. He doesn't even try to hide his hatred expression.

"I can't measure that woman's courage with common sense. She's getting used to Charlotte just like a commoner."

"... Yes, but why allow it?"

"I blamed him, but what Charlotte was tolerated, on the contrary, was what he said was useless.

"... Charlotte, who is he?"

"Because I'm a gentle person, I don't say anything when I stand out, but I'm sure in my heart ..."

"Is that so"

It is clear that Milia's subjectivity is considerable, but it does not make sense to point out. Leon decides to change who he asks.

"... What do you think of Viscount Lancelot?"

"Oh ... I'm a generous person ... No, that's not the case. As far as I can tell, I seem to like that commoner's daughter."

"……Is that so"

Rion's head is only confused. Vincent and Aeriel are also generous to Rion, a commoner. Rion knows that the servants around her were frowning.

However, both of them have a firm line between master and slave with Rion. If Leon had a familiar attitude, he would be angry at Vincent, as well as at Airiel.

Rion thought for a moment whether the thought was different in other lords, but that was not the case with the attitudes of the maids and servants.

So why is that girl student allowed to be treated specially? I do not know how much I think.

What you don't understand is that there is not enough information to get an answer. Rion decides to take the next action to expand the information network.

◇◇◇

Rion's activities had a different effect than desired. That's a problem, but Leon was out of control.

By deepening the connection with the Axmia Hou's maid, the information between the maids can be grasped to some extent. That's the story of a maid. Rion knew from his experience that most of the information would be available if he had put it in one place.

The higher the position of the maid, the more difficult it is for the maid's information to flow. It can be said that there are no rumors that cannot be heard from them.

Then the next step is to create a different information network. Rion aimed at the commoners. There is also a reason that it is difficult to deepen the connection with the aristocracy from the viewpoint of Rion, but there was the idea that the commoner was easier than the secretive aristocrat in terms of disseminating information.

Rion has the purpose not only to obtain information, but also to spread useful information here.

"Yes. Are you OK here?"

"Yes, yes."

In front of the classroom entrance, Rion hands a bundle of paper she had to the schoolgirl.

"Please don't clutter me anymore"

"Oh, yes. Be careful."

In a gentle tone, Rion tells her that the face of the schoolgirl is bright red.

"Well, this is it."

"that!?"

"Yes?"

"Thank you, Lion."

"No. Don't worry. But my name?"

"It's famous. He's very kind."

"It's embarrassing, and I'm kind to it because it's mainly said."

"Is it the Lord?"

"Vincent of the Marquis of Winheels."

"eh?"

Upon hearing Vincent's name, the schoolgirl exclaimed. Rion, who falls deeply downright in the reaction, opens her mouth while staring at the girl's eyes without revealing it.

"Because I'm clumsy, it's easy to get misunderstood.

"... Yes, if your request"

"What's your name? I think Zulu is the only one who knows your name."

"... Anne"

"Ann, then, if you have the chance,"

"Yes.

"What is it?"

"... If I see Rion, can I call out?"

"Yes, I got to know this."

With this feeling, Rion was to help any schoolgirl who was in trouble anyway. Explain each time that you are only following Vincent's instructions.

This is a strategy that makes Vincent think that she can't be rude to a woman, but the rumors that spread aren't.

The rumors spread among the schoolgirls seemed to be cold at first glance, but they were very gentle, and their reputation for having a fairly beautiful servant.

And the schoolgirl who actually meets Leon talks about why such a lovely person is Vincent's follower.

Rion is the only one that gets better, and Vincent's reputation is still as good.

However, there are some who are less popular among schoolgirls than Vincent because of Leon.

The schoolgirl.

"Rion!"

"... Maria"

"Stop dressing. I'm a commoner."

If you say that, you should be more careful with the wording. Although Lion is a commoner, he does not say that he is a Marquis. Anyway, I don't want to get involved with this schoolgirl. I've decided that since I first met.

"Do you want something?"

"I don't really need it, but I saw it.

It shows the appearance that it was spoiled by upper eyes. It is not a lion that moves such a thing.

"I was still talking to Anne."

In other words, it was useless.

"... well, are you talking yet?"

"It's over, but I feel rude to end this way. Ann, sorry."

"No, I don't care, and it's bad."

Ann's gaze turns to Maria. It is a cold gaze that is completely different from the gaze toward Lion. Now, a little bit later, Maria bought the grudge of the schoolgirl.

Although she hasn't had a particular chance to get acquainted, she talks to Leon.

When I first talked, it was an apology for having apologized to Rion. I wish I had done that, but Maria began to swear Vincent. It's hard to push everything, but it's such a sympathetic way, but Rion can only sound badly.

Seeing the disgusted reputation spread, he saw Rion's hard-pressed appearance, and exploded his anger. Maids.

Maria is involved in Leon who dislikes. It was reflected in their eyes like that. Indeed, they seemed to Rion even worse than they really were.

The maidens yell at Maria. However, it was soon angered and stopped by his master, Charlotte. As a result, the maidens' mood for Maria grows more and more.

These emotions were transmitted to other maids who favored Rion, and Maria was positioned as the worst woman among maids.

Nevertheless, Maria who can't be discarded does not stop talking to Rion. In this way, the bad feelings for Mary spread to the average female student. This is not solely due to his favor for Leon.

The jealousy of Mary, who was a commoner, but also a friend of the Three Houses, had originally spread.

"So I'm at this."

"Yes"

"A little?"

In annoyance to Lyon, saying goodbye to Ann and leaving to leave, Maria stopped her.

"What's still?"

"I haven't said anything yet."

"……However"

"what?"

"Is it okay to talk to Viscount Lancelot?"

Maria is not alone. Lancelot is also with Charlotte.

This is the usual thing, and it even makes Leon more troublesome for Mary, but today Rion is trying to use it in reverse.

"All right"

"It's not Maria's decision."

"But ..."

"Is it troublesome?"

"... No, no. Maria doesn't bother me because she wants to talk."

"I'm just a servant?"

"I know. You've met many times?"

“…………”

Rion wonders if this can be done with a generous word. The difference between the aristocracy and the commoner's position should be more important if you are a Marquis, who is the pinnacle of the aristocracy.

I can't say that Rion can say that. If it is a minion, it is still an opinion, but Rion is a person of another family.

Protest is full of silence.

"If you're worried. I'll order you. Hear Maria.

"No, if it goes against Vincent's instructions, I will go against it."

"... I see. In this case?"

"... Unfortunately, she is kind to women but tells me."

"Let's talk."

"... I understand. So what is your business?"

"I'm going to eat delicious sweets this time. How about Rion with you?"

Rion's eyebrows move suddenly when suddenly abandoned. Nobody seemed to notice, as it was the eyebrows in the middle of the eyepatch.

"... is that an invitation to Vincent?"

"No, I'm inviting Rion."

Also, call away. Ryo, a little adult, is working hard to appease Rion, who is about to tremble in anger. Of course, you don't know that.

"This is an invitation, but we will refuse it."

"why?"

"First of all, I can't afford to be with you when my servant isn't in the Lord, and I don't have that time in the first place."

"No one cares when I'm there. I don't even have time to lie."

This persistence further irritates Rion. Persistently, Rion only allows it, Eriel. In other words, it doesn't matter if it's up to Rion's feelings.

"Why a lie?"

"I heard you dated a Charlotte maid."

"... should be called Charlotte"

"What Charlotte said I didn't mind."

"... It's not a date, it's a delicious dessert shop. That's part of my servant's job."

"was delicious?"

"... Yeah, I was told a good shop."

Rion knows the words that are waiting after this answer before he asks.

"Then let's go there."

"Please. Feel free. As I said, I have no time."

"But ..."

"I have to go under Vincent. This will take precedence over everything, so please do not disturb me.

After that, he cuts his consciousness for Maria, and Rion leaves quickly.

"... A truly hidden character. The capture seems to be difficult."

As a result, Rion could not hear such a muttering of Maria.
