Chapter 106 - The Number 1 Maid
Chapter 106 – The Number 1 Maid
"He's simply asleep."
Aezel replied to Elena.
"No! Why isn't Master waking up then?"
Elena looked at Aezel warily.
"That's because he ran out of mana."
Aezel replied to Elena.
"H-Huh?"
Elena blinked her eyes repeatedly.
"He cast a True Mage Spell, and he used too much mana."
Aezel explained to Elena.
"A-Ah!! I'm sorry I misunderstood!"
Elena quickly bowed her head in apology. She could still remember Lawrend doing the same before.
"Fufufu. It's fine. Why don't you explain to me who you are to Lawrend?"
Aezel laughed seeing Elena bowing to her in apology.
"I…I…"
Elena glanced towards the black-clothed woman who was watching by the door.
"Fine. I'll leave."
After seeing that their attention was focused on her, the black-clothed woman closed the door and left.
"So? Who are you?"
Aezel asked Elena in front of her.
"I-I'm Master's pet."
Elena replied to Aezel.
"…P-Pet?"
Aezel stared at Elena in incredulity. She never thought that Lawrend had the kink to take a young girl as his pet. She even looks willing.
"Yes! I'm Master's pet slime and maid."
Elena nodded her head and explained to Aezel.
"Slime?"
Aezel blinked her eyes as she looked at Elena.
"Yes. I already told you who I am. Tell me who you are, Big Sis."
Elena peered at Aezel with squinted eyes.
"Fufufu. Why don't we wait till Lawrend wakes up?"
Aezel said to Elena. Since she could faintly remember Elena's name then it should be natural to think that Elena knows what she looks like. For a demon to show up here, it would surely cause a ruckus if Elena wasn't kept in check.
"Okay."
Elena nodded her head. She sat beside the bed, as for Aezel, she continued sitting there like a professional maid.
Seeing that Aezel wasn't sitting on the bed, Elena felt pressured. She imitated her and also stood beside the bed. After all, she's wearing her maid uniform right now. She had to at least perform her duties.
"Fufufu."
Aezel laughed at Elena after seeing her actions.
"W-What?"
Elena looked at Aezel with a grumble.
"You don't have to try too hard and compete with me. I'm Master's number 1 maid."
Aezel said to Elena with a smug smile.
"That's not true!"
Elena shook her head vehemently.
"Ohh… Really?"
Aezel looked at Elena, amused.
"Yes! After all, Big Sis Aleshia is Master's number 1 maid!"
Elena nodded her head and said to Aezel.
"How can you say so?"
Aezel smiled at Elena. After all, from what she saw from Lawrend's maids back then, no one was stronger than her. In her mind, she was already his number 1 maid by being the strongest.
"B-Big Sis Aleshia a-already did intimate things with Master!"
Elena replied with a stutter as her face turned red in embarrassment.
"Hm? How intimate?"
Aezel's interest was piqued after hearing Elena's words. Elena glanced at the sleeping Lawrend and went over to whisper it into Aezel's ear.
"Hohh… You think she's number 1 because she did that with Master?"
Aezel's grin grew wider after hearing Elena's whisper.
"Yes!"
Elena nodded her head strongly.
"Fufufu. Let me tell you something…"
Aezel then bent down and whispered into Elena's ear. She gave her a short summary of what they did back in the forest.
"Y-Y-You!"
Elena pointed at Aezel in shock and disbelief.
"Fufufu. I'm the number 1 maid now."
Aezel looked down at Elena smugly.
"You're so unfair! Even Big Sis Aleshia never went that far!"
Elena said to Aezel in indignance. In her opinion, her big sis Aleshia should be the first one to do it with her Master.
"Fufufu. That's because she's so slow."
Aezel replied with a victorious smile on her face.
"But… But…"
Elena tried to come up with words to say in reply but nothing came up. She was speechless at the realization that another maid clinched the number 1 maid position.
"But?"
Aezel smiled and teased Elena by repeating her words.
"I'll come back with Big Sis Aleshia!"
Elena ran out of the room and left.
"Oh my. Such a competitive pet slime. Fufufu."
Aezel covered her mouth with her hand as she laughed.
…
"Big Sis Aleshia!"
Elena entered their room in the Phoenix-Dragon Inn and embraced Aleshia the instant she saw her.
"What happened, Elena?"
Aleshia furrowed her eyebrows. It looked to her like someone bullied Elena.
"Big Sis Aleshia, someone became Master's number 1 maid!"
Elena said to Aleshia as tears welled up in her eyes.
"H-Huh? What do you mean number 1 maid?"
Aleshia looked at Elena blankly.
"It's like this…"
Elena then proceeded to explain what does being the number 1 maid mean.
"W-Why are you leaking that everywhere??"
Aleshia looked at Elena, flustered.
"That's because I want Big Sis Aleshia to be the number 1 maid!"
Elena replied to her in high spirits.
"Elena, you can't just say that to anyone. I said it to you because I trust you."
Aleshia rubbed Elena's head with a sincere smile on her face.
"Mm… I'm sorry-buzu…"
Elena dropped her shoulders, downcast.
"Alright, Elena it's okay. Also, didn't I teach you to stop saying 'buzu'?"
Aleshia continued rubbing Elena's head.
"Yes…"
Elena nodded her head.
"So… Who is this that told you she's Lawrend's number 1 maid?"
Aleshia asked Elena.
"I don't know, but I found Master!"
Elena suddenly remembered that she hadn't told them that she found Lawrend already.
"You found him!?"
Aleshia held Elena's shoulders in excitement.
"Yes! Master is asleep with the suspicious maid watching over him!"
Elena replied with a nod of her head.
"That's great! Take us there, Elena!"
Aleshia smiled happily.
"Wait! Let's all wear our maid uniforms."
Elena urged the two of them. Aleshia and Ella nodded her head. They then wore their maid uniforms.
After that, the three of them then went to the inn Lawrend was staying at.
…
"So you're saying that he's behind this door with the masked maid?"
Aleshia asked Elena beside her.
"Mm! We should act professional and show her who's the best maid!"
Elena nodded her head and said to them enthusiastically.
"Okay. Let's go in."
Aleshia nodded her head. She straightened her body up and opened the door.
