I hear something.
It's like tapping something, little noise.
It grew bigger and bigger, and it finally became a noise until it clearly interfered with my sleep.
... Ah!
"Sorry, please wait a moment"
Jumping out of the hard bed in a hurry, I wake up drowsy using healing magic on myself, checking my figure and hurrying to get dressed.
Can't you handle this habit of taking it off if you have trouble sleeping?
I took it off from the beginning and went to bed... No, I'm with Lace these days, and I can't be embarrassed like that.
Anyway, hurried in my personal clothes, I pull myself together and head to the door.
... I thought this place was locked from the outside, but can you open it from the inside as well?
"Sorry, I don't know how to unlock it, what can I do?
"Put on your wrist bangle, please. Unless it's a punitive lock, you can take it off."
I see we can change the effect of the key in the bangle.
I'm sure someone with superior authority can also use a technique that can't be opened from the inside, and then manage it.
Could it be time-bound or even remotely operated? I'm not exhausted.
... Speaking of which, I messed with the bangle's procedure yesterday, so it might not work.
I remember the time I dismantled the operation, imitating it and using witchcraft.
Then there was the noise of the rattling and the lock coming off.
... Is this going to be a master key or something?
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting. I'll take care of you today, my name is Yue."
At the end of the door, not Mr. Ikes, but a human girl, a kid about eighteen or nineteen years old with a rustic feel.
She thanked me and opened her mouth with Pocan before finally returning her reaction.
"From today on I will strive for Mr. Yue's educator. It is' Laurier '. Best regards,"
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Laurier"
She took me downstairs.
Unlike other floors, this place was like a large hall, where places like fitting rooms and large walk-in closets were available.
Laurier says that the floors I was on have concentrated storerooms and temporary beds, and from today on, a room will be available on another floor.
I am overwhelmed by maid clothes hanging in the closet in large quantities. Awesome, so many clothes...... all the same though.
"Do you know your size? It's for the taller you go in the back, and the more stylish you go to the right."
"Okay."
I head first to the far right and grab my maid's clothes.
And desperate.
I had no choice but to step forward and find something that suited my height and head to the fitting room.
So I had a second taste of despair.
"Um, if you don't mind, I'll take a look."
"No problem, please wait a moment"
... then in the leftmost row I was able to find a made-up garment that fit my size.
Someone must have mistakenly put it back...
"Then the next basic practice is that Yue doesn't seem to have any problems with it already, including verbal use, so I'd like to explain your work. Please follow me as we move to the main building."
She shows the gatekeeper something paper and asks him to open the gate. Pass or something?
The property has small woods with meadows, beautifully color-coded flower gardens and gardens where you can get every corner and say whoever you see is beautiful.
Turning around the corner of such a garden to the rear of the building, a small door appeared.
"This is the common gateway used by housekeepers, cooks and security people like us. If you're wrong, don't use the front door."
"Okay. You can't use that place unless you're a servant in more than a certain capacity, can you?
"Uh, I think so. Um, how did they think that?
"Mr. Ikes used it there the other day."
"I see..."
My job, at first, seems to be just to clean.
When they asked me what I could do, I replied that if it was about cleaning and easy cooking, the cooking was basically made by the cooks, so I rarely went into the kitchen.
... even though no one can beat you if you just crush it. With boiled eggs, boiled eggs, boiled eggs?
However, they say that they will make their own bribes, and then they will receive extra materials and make them in the servant's quarters, or in the kitchen in that tower.
"Now, we'll start cleaning in the morning at five o'clock each morning and finish at seven o'clock, so let's start cleaning this afternoon together"
"... ok"
Five o'clock...... I don't know what to do, this is hell.
Start working. It's three days today.
In the beginning it was all about cleaning toilets and rooms that were not normally used, but from today on it was to be turned to cleaning hallways and the conditioning items decorated there, i.e. places where people had a lot of opportunity to come into contact with their eyes.
And that meant that there would be an opportunity to confirm with this eye the arkham that we had yet to see.
"Ugh... I thought this wake-up heel was a good idea, but I need to make some more improvements"
And I wake up today with this hellish sorcery of getting up early and getting up at 4: 00 in time for the start of cleaning.
After all the tweaking to wake up feeling good, it turned out to be some horrible sorcery that forced me to wake up with some absurd feeling.
I think it will turn into amazing sorcery or magic depending on the adjustment, but let's put that idea aside for now.
We made up our minds and headed to my battlefield today.
"Good morning, my name is Yue and I will be helping you clean this place from today. As you are immature, please do not hesitate to let me know if you have any questions or instructions."
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Yue. I'll be the maid director of this mansion. It's 'Rose'. You only came to the table on the third day of your service."
"No, I'm still immature, for example. We're just going to have a lot of different experiences so we can use it at all."
"Heh heh, too much humility can cause unwanted strife. Well, I'll come with you today, and everyone else will do as they always do."
Eighteen maids were already waiting in the hallway of the hall, so I was praised by the delegate and the maid when I said hello with all my strength to put myself in the mood.
She, Mr. Rose, is like a demon clan, growing bat feathers that resemble Reis well from both sides of her head.
... and my breasts were huge too. I know, I guess those clothes were in the back right of the closet anyway.
"Mr. Yue, as I said earlier, everyone assigned to this squad has something in common"
"... From what I've seen, you were all very beautiful, and of course Master Rose"
When I said that, it was as if I was used to being told, or whether I took it for granted. No particular lighting or humility, as it were, she continued.
"If you've noticed, it's quick to talk, but that's the thing. If you hear from Arkham, be sure to accept it."
"... ok"
"And, if you'll excuse me, does Mr. Yue have any experience? If you don't, there are things I can do to help you."
... I don't know what the right answer would be!
There's no way you've been through this, what are you talking about this guy?
I'm not married, and my lover... not yet. No, it's not. It's not. It's not.
I don't know what I can do to help, I don't know why, I'm getting a headache.
"... I'll leave it to your imagination"
"Okay. But don't defy or resist… because many maids have been 'disposed' of in the past"
... I think you should kill him already.
You think that's okay if you don't know who did it, don't you?
And I finally got to meet him at work today.
With our enemy, the culprit who torments Reis, and Arkham, another demon king.
"We closed our business safely today. So here's your paycheck for today."
At two o'clock in the evening, the store owner paid me for today, and I left the tavern, which is now my workplace.
Arriving in the city, I soon broke up with Mr. Kai and worked alone, as a waitress for this store.
Were you able to safely infiltrate the mansion five days after arriving in the city and breaking up with us first?
If you still couldn't do it after a week, you're supposed to be contacting me via the guild......
"Nevertheless, it seems surprisingly too late for this one"
And on my way home, today, at last, I felt signs of someone to put after me.
In a less graded inn, I chose a lodging street inn for the wealthy, deep in the city, thinking that might show up someone who would target me for their own desires.
I thought it would be close to the Lords' Hall if it were here, and the target would be limited, but it looks like I finally caught it.
Probably looking and confirming today. It should be a little later to move into action in earnest.
Arkham must also know that I am not the one who can do something with all my strength.
He used to try to kidnap me, but every time he tried to return the favor.
In this day and age, the ability of the adventurer is also lower than then, and perhaps the best hand pawns, were buried by Kai's hand.
I've been struck by surprises before, but Kai prevented me from doing so. Was that meant to build this one's current strength?
Whatever it is, you don't have to be afraid. But still, my hand stretches naturally to the necklace on my neck, and strokes the bracelet on my wrist.
The amulet Mr. Kai gave me. Absolutely defending it put a special technique on me, and it also gave special power to the bracelet and gave it to me.
Thanks to this, I was able to return to the Inn without trembling.
