Enjoying the sixth day of the Six Kings Festival, when the sun was about to set, Lilia and the others returned to the Inn. It is no longer a building to be called a mansion rather than an inn, but if you have just spent seven days, you will get used to it.

At the entrance we leave our luggage with our dedicated servants, and Lilia and the others move into their respective rooms.

Lilia's room is co-ed by Renamaria and three of Sieglinde's best friends, mainly because of her stomach ache, a strong hope in person......

I went back to my room and saw Lilia sitting in the chair, then Renamaria and Sieglinde sat in the chair too. The three of them, who were also best friends before being the main subjects, often chat around the table with the three of them in private time.

"Today, I'm really glad it's relatively peaceful"

"Right. I waited in order like yesterday and never lined up for hours..."

Renamaria nods deeply and agrees with Lilia, who smiles gently. Sieglinde held up a pet cellus that came near him, put him on his lap, took the tea out of the magic box and placed it in front of both of them.

"... but when Lili looks alarmed like that, you wonder if something is going to happen"

"Oh, I know. Lili is really in shape to pull the hard work in."

"Please don't! Not even on edge..."

Now Renamaria also refers to Lilia not as her usual way of calling her 'lady', but as her nickname is' Lili ', and I thought the calm, heartbreaking time would flow because she was between her thoughtful best friends...... but soon afterwards I heard a modest knock and Lilia's shoulder bounced small.

"... Huh?

"Oh? Did something just happen? You're a boulder lily."

"... Aoi or Hina?

Sometimes it was just after we talked about something that might happen, etc., and the three look at each other in surprise. And it's like Lilia praying somewhere... opening her mouth with the desire that it's not a trouble.

"Yes... go ahead"

"Excuse me. Sir Alberto."

"... are you a visitor?

"Yes, sir."

"Illness?...... ok. Let me through."

Was it unexpected the name given to me by the dedicated servant who came in, Lilia, tilting her neck once, and then telling her to go through the room?

The door was knocked again after a minute or so after the dedicated servant had graciously stepped back.

"Go ahead."

"Excuse me ~"

A distinct voice, somewhat tongueless, was heard, and Irnes, the maid of the Duke of Alberto's house, came into the room.

"I'm sorry I pushed you so suddenly, lady."

"... what's wrong? Could there be anything in the mansion?

"No - there's nothing wrong with the Mansion. I just had a letter for you to check with the lady about two things, and it went up for delivery."

Illness, who was supposed to be at the mansion, came to visit and wondered if there was any trouble, Lilia, but Illness shook her neck to the side and took out two letters.

"I'll take a look at it - I decided I needed an early reply. Ah. Check it out. No."

"Okay. I'll let you through."

"Yes - and oh, you're worried about the mansion. I won't be late."

"Really...... sorry, Illness. Have you even asked for an understudy while I was away... tired or not?

"I have no problem with this at all. Go ahead - miss. Ha, don't worry about the mansion. Enjoy the festival. No."

"... helpful. Thank you so much for everything."

"Never mind."

Illness is among the oldest of the Duke of Alberto's houses… No, in the first place she was originally a 'maid attached to Lilia when she was a princess'.

He was also a very good maid and a presence that Lilia, anxious to be independent as Duke, desperately asked for and solicited.

He asked me to think about it for about two days, but he eventually listened to Lilia's wishes and followed me to the Duke of Alberto's house.

Many of the other servants were following Lilia on their own, and only Illness asked Lilia to follow them...... in that sense, they were of a different colour in the Duke of Alberto family.

And, in fact, that arm is above Lilia's expectations, and it is her great achievement that the Duke of Alberto family has been very stable in just a few years. Most importantly, he doesn't like to stand out and speak for himself.

However, the trust from Lilia and the people at the Mansion, including Lunamaria and Sieglinde, is immense and Lilia is entrusted with the role of substitute when she is away.

More than flashy work, go ahead and do chores, all of which are almost perfect for a good job. It was precisely the power under the edge of the Duke of Alberto family.

"Lunamaria. Oh, are you enjoying it?

"Yeah, yeah... once in a while, Master Ilnes could have joined us by stretching out his feathers..."

"Kuhihi, me and the lady are both in on it. Ha, 'cause the burden on the other servants is gonna be huge."

In a simple position, Lunamaria, our exclusive maid, is above the flat-maid Illness, but Lunamaria calls Illness as such.

Because the majority of the mansion's maids, including Lunamaria, are taught the maid Iroja by Irnes. In other words, for Lunamaria, Illness was a presence that could also be described as a master, and for her she had given an answer in a rare and tense way.

"Sieglinde too - hey? Kuhihi, you seem to be having fun with your adorable pet."

"Yes."

"That's more than anything."

After a shout and a snort at Sieglinde as well, Ilnes bows beautifully and opens his tease.

"... so, uh, I'm going back to the mansion."

"On purpose, I'm sorry. I'm counting on you..."

"No - what happened while the lady was away. Ha, I'll summarize it chronologically, so if you go back, look through it."

"Okay. Thank you so much for everything."

After exchanging greetings with Lilia, Illness left.

And after a moment of silence flowed, Lunamaria first opened her mouth with a potpourri.

"... you're still very boring. I do 10 times more than my regular workload, but I don't feel like I can beat that lady's substitute at any time."

"And Kate asked me to take care of Belle and Lynn."

Sieglinde snorts deeply at Lunamaria, who tells her she's smudged.

All the while there, Lunamaria smiles somewhat ill-intentioned, sees Chirali and Lilia, and then starts talking in an exaggerated move.

"That's all I'm saying about doing good and tons of work! Paycheck, position, flat maid... what a livestock is a lady... oh, now one day they'll grab my love and quit."

"Don't say horrible things!?

To Renamaria's words, Lilia screams with a blue look. In fact, the Duke of Alberto family would be devastated if the Illness were gone... although not even tilted.

I didn't even want to imagine how many people would be needed if others tried to make up for the job she had for one person.

"I mean, even I've had many salary increases! But the person 'solidifies' it, so you have no choice!?

"Well, indeed, Master Irnes has no greed at all,"

"... the only hope I had was to be exclusive to Kate, who was in a weak position at the time."

Yes, it's nothing. Lilia likes it and she doesn't flatten out Illness. I've tried many times to pay her what she deserves to work.

But that's all Illness refused...... the status quo Illness was supposed to be the same salary and position of a flat maid.

"... I'll make her my maid chief as soon as she even cares about the ilness. Or even the current maid chief frequently says, 'Isn't it better for the maid chief, not me?' He says something like that... but he doesn't accept it at all."

"Well, I guess so. In other words, almost every servant of the mansion thinks that Master Irnes is the right man for the maid."

"... the only person you don't think of is yourself"

Very competent, dependable from the heart...... only in that Lilia is a full-width trustworthy being, but hates the only stand out position was very disturbing to her head.

Well, most of all... such distress is too mild compared to stomach pain when one day I find out who Irnes is a pandemonium...
