- I'll be back in the spirit realm! The king was curious about your news.
“Okay.”
After Undine disappeared, I pulled the long string hanging from the head of the bed.
Soon, a servant girl or a maid would come. Having experienced Part 1, I was not unfamiliar with it. After a while, the door opened and a maid entered quietly.
“Master, did you have a good night?”
Master? That's a bit cheesy. I hid my embarrassment behind my expression.
“I need to get dressed up.”
“Yes, we have prepared bath water for you.”
The maid glanced at my feet, brought my slippers, and put them down neatly. Then she knelt on the floor and bowed her head. Her posture was natural as if she had done it hundreds of times.
“Excuse me, Master, but would you please raise your foot?”
Was it always like this for maids?
Even if I think of Prince Leonhart, the best silver spoon among my comrades, I don't think it was this much.
I wanted to refuse, but I couldn't. The instructions clearly said ‘as usual’.
“……Right.”
When I lifted one foot, she put on a slipper. The moment I put on my slippers, the quick-moving maid's fingertips scratched the top of my feet.
“Um?”
It wasn't even a strong impact, but there were red scratches on my white feet.
I guess this body is the type to get hurt easily.
Thinking like that, I was looking down at the red mark indifferently. However, the maid slumped back and sat down.
“Ah…… ah…….”
“Hmm?”
“Ah…… I…… I…… I’m…… I’m sor…….”
She was seized with complete terror. To the point where she couldn't even speak properly.
‘Why are you so frightened by this?’
When I was about to say that it was fine.
[Stage 2: (Slap the maid on the cheek) Start cleaning the lab from today.]
“…….”
Slap the maid for doing something wrong? You don't have too much flexibility, do you?
‘This is why it's ruined!’
Stage 2 instruction is 50% degree of freedom. I only need to follow half of the instructions.
Instead of slapping her face, I patted the maid's head.
“Start cleaning the lab from today.”
At that moment, the maid's face turned white.
‘Strange……. I definitely said it softly with a smile, but why does she look more scared?’
“Do, do, do you, mean that sealed…… sealed lab?”
“Is there another lab besides there?”
“Hiic! Ma, Ma, Master! Save me!”
“……Uh?”
“I, I was wrong! I, I will, I will never make, make that mistake again……. Pl, please, please not the lab! I, I beg you! Please, please forgive me just this once!”
‘What, what kind of situation is this?’
I looked down at the maid with absurd eyes. She was hanging from my legs and kissing my feet.
‘I think she's afraid of the lab.’
I don't know what kind of lab it is, but it wouldn't be normal to be frightened like this just by ordering to clean it.
‘Do I have a monster?’
I clicked my tongue in my mouth thinking useless thoughts.
‘How many people does this body usually get? She's very cocky.’
It was pretty much understandable.
Unfortunately, the character of this body I possessed must be very aristocratic. It means that she is arrogant, authoritative, and knows only knows herself. Pride for the bloodline will strike the sky and alone will be honored. Everyone else is insignificant.
‘Aiyo, of course, I possessed a character like this!’
I tried to get the maid up but stopped.
From now on, I needed to act like Adrian as much as possible. I had to hide my identity until the end to return to the original world.
Of course, just because I acted a little differently from Adrian, I wouldn't immediately be suspected of possession, but it was just in case. It was better not to do anything that would be criticized by the ruined author from the beginning.
Instead of raising the maid up, I stepped back.
What would Adrian do at this time? She certainly wouldn't have consoled her.
“What are you procrastinating on? Didn't you hear my order?”
My behavior was different from the instruction and my speech was not natural, but fortunately, there was no penalty.
‘You're saying you're going to make it 50% right? It's not a hard decision.’
“Ma, Master, please forgive me just once…….”
Tears dropped from the maid's wide eyes.
I couldn't help it even though I felt sorry for her. Let's have her clean the lab just for today. I could call her back at night.
[Stage 3: Adrian took out the lab key from the small drawer next to the bed and gave it to the maid.]
[Stage 3: (With a fishy laugh) Just hold on for a fortnight. Then I will forgive you.]
‘……It won't be a day.’
As instructed, two keys were placed alone in the drawer next to the bed. I took one of them out and handed it to the maid.
“Just hold on for a fortnight. Then I will forgive you.”
The maid staggered to her feet as if she had given up.
“……I, I’ll call…… another maid.”
The maid bowed and went out, and another maid came inside. It was a cute red-haired girl with freckles on the back of her nose.
“Ma, Ma, Master, did, did you call me?”
Her thin body was shaking pitifully. She was so scared. The maid was calm when she first came in.
Adrian must have caught quite a few employees.
“I need to dress up. Get ready.”
“Yes, Master.”
When the bath was over, the maids were mobilized to groom me. For two hours.
“Master, it's over.”
I stared blankly at the mirror.
Dark smokey makeup. A perfect updo hairstyle with no mess.
I wore a headdress made of diamonds on my head, and large diamond earrings, a set with the headdress, on my ears. The tight-fitting black dress was elegant and beautiful with golden embroidery, but even that was unusual.
‘It's like putting a fan on the back of the neck. Is it made of feathers?’
There was nothing on my body that was not glamorous and beautiful.
It's luxurious, so I think I'll buy a house easily just by selling diamonds on my hair ornaments.
“Am I attending a party today?”
When I asked with a little boredom, the maid, who was standing without even raising her head, answered politely.
“Shall I ask Mr. Butler about the schedule?”
“……Forget it.”
So I usually dress like this.
‘This body is really pretty if you look at it closely. So pretty.…… Why do I look like a witch, not a duke?’
There is a saying that status makes a person. It was right to have the dignity of a duke, but this was a bit serious.
I looked so mean and wicked. Was this why they were afraid to talk to me?
I shook my head.
‘Over-setting is a characteristic of a ruined work.’
Honestly, isn't the title too bad?
What do you mean <I Became a Saint who Saved the World>? It's the same as Part 1.
‘It's ruined like that, but it's not improving.’
Looking at the title, the genre is a fantasy similar to Part 1, and the protagonist becomes a saint and defeats the demon king. And I am the ruthless duchess who supports the protagonist.
‘Wait, so who's the saint?’
You ruined author! You should at least tell me the main character!
“Haa…….”
Damn it, I need to find the protagonist first.
* * *
Adrian's mansion was really magnificent.
The interiors were grand, the furnishings were elegant, and the ornaments were sumptuous.
Adrian seemed to be this type of person.
Upon arriving at the dining room, the attendants opened both doors wide. When I entered, the child I saw in the morning was sitting first.
“Du, Duke! You, you’re here?”
A child who looked to be four or five years old jumped up and bowed. Her pink hair, tied in two ponytails, swayed and fluttered.
‘Oh my, it's so cute when she ties it like that.’
I sat down, resisting the urge to stamp my feet.
“Have a seat.”
“Yes!”
After the child sat down, the meal began to be served.
Did you sleep well yesterday? What kind of food do you like?
There were so many things I wanted to ask. However, I couldn't say anything because I didn't know anything about the child.
What is your relationship with me?
‘You, you're not my daughter, are you?’
Eyy, no matter how broken Adrian's personality was, she wouldn't have made her daughter call her Duke.
……No way, right?
‘If I’m possessed, tell me the information about the people around me. You ruined author.’
I had no choice but to stare at the table when the child asked cautiously.
“By the way, Duke.”
“Go ahead.”
“Are, are you not sick anymore?”
“……Was I sick?”
“I heard that you, you keep, keep getting sick, these days. The, the other day.”
“Ah…….”
That's why she came to my bedroom in the morning. She’s worried because I'm sick.
‘Good child.’
The child seemed to really like Adrian. Adrian wouldn't have treated her warmly though.
“You…….”
Before I said ‘You have a beautiful heart’, the instruction popped up.
[Stage 1: (With a cold look) Piace.]
‘Is her name Piace? Oh, it’s cut…….’
[Step 2: (Firmly) Are you bragging that you eavesdropped on it? Go back to your bedroom now and reflect on yourself.]
‘You crazy bastard, you need to feed her breakfast! This is abuse!’
