Chapter 12: I Didn't Expect You to Be Such a Maid!
Ji'er's sword was broken in two, half still in her hand and the other half piercing Nina's shoulder, the crimson color staining her clothes and the dust beneath her. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"What are you doing in a daze? Who heals spells? Hurry up and help! ”
After being stunned for a long time, the students who had never seen this kind of scene finally reacted, the only thing that was fortunate was that this level of injury was nothing in front of a group of magicians, and the two were quickly sent for treatment, and the sword on Nina's shoulder had even been disposed of by the alchemy students.
――
Squeak.
The sound of the door being pushed open was very noticeable in the quiet room, and after agreeing, Lauren walked inside.
Although she was only twelve years old, Lauren was already familiar with the job of a maid, and after walking up to her side and moving a chair, she picked up an apple from the table, skillfully peeled it and cut it into small pieces, and put it on a plate.
"You shouldn't be asleep, if you haven't, eat some apples."
She didn't react.
"What a worrying lady."
Seeing that she didn't react, Lauren sighed softly, looked back at the closed door, she lightly forked a piece of apple and gently bit it with her moist lips, and sat sideways on her bed: "Since you don't want to do it yourself, then please forgive me for my faux pas." ”
The breath with the girl's unique fragrance gently brushed her face, and it seemed to carry some of her warmth, and the hanging hair swept over her face, as if it would ...... at any time
"Hey, wait...... I don't look like your eldest lady at all, do I? Are you naturally stupid or have bad eyes? ”
"Oh, are you finally awake?"
Lauren walked into not Gille's room, but Nina's room next door to her.
Seeing that Nina finally opened her eyes, Lauren did not perform any more, but she still sat by Nina's window and ate the apple in her mouth without mind.
"Hey, that's the apple you peeled for me, why did you eat it yourself?"
Nina still had bandages on her shoulders as she sat up from the bed, but by anyone's point of view, she didn't look like she was injured at all.
"Oh? Do you like it when people feed you apples this way? Your interests are really special. ”
"I'll give you back this sentence as it is, you did it first...... Wait, your eldest lady turns out to have this interest? ”
"I'm sorry, but Miss's interest is the opposite of what you say."
"Really...... Hey, wait! That's terrible, too! ”
"These things don't matter, it's my job to make the eldest lady happy."
"Make the eldest lady happy? So what did you come to me for? ”
"First of all, the eldest lady is the duke's daughter, and the servants around me will not lack me, and secondly, the eldest lady is not seriously injured, but she is just stunned."
Lauren paused, looked Nina in the eye, and said word by word.
"What do you want to do?"
"Me? I just asked a few questions......"
Lauren didn't answer, but before Nina could finish speaking, she suddenly reached out and pressed the wound where Nina wrapped her shoulder with a bandage.
"It hurts so much......"
"Your acting skills are honestly not very good, besides, you don't want to tell me that this arm that just hinted at me is really injured, right?"
Lauren could see very clearly that Nina, who had just fallen to the ground, was clearly aimed at where she was standing and extended her thumb, and more importantly, that hand was still her injured arm.
"Really...... Looks like I guessed right. ”
Just looking at Lauren's eyes, Nina finally put away her joking smile, and after Lauren got out of the way, she sat up slightly straighter, looked at Lauren with a smile and asked, "Who are you?" ”
"As you can see, it's just an ordinary maid."
"Maid?"
Nina smiled, and continued: "As far as I know, Ji'er is the only one in this academy who thinks that she is the daughter of the duke, in other words, she is the highest nobleman in this academy, but this is the most suspicious point, the nobles will not allow their daughters to be treated the same as ordinary people, no matter how advanced the academy is, because it will affect their reputation, so the nobles will hire magicians as personal teachers when they study magic." ”
"You seem to know something about that, you want to say...... Are you doubting the identity of the eldest lady? ”
"No, I don't doubt her identity at all, because watching her performance on stage just now understands that she ...... It's an abandoned son of a nobleman, right? ”
Not all of the nobles were geniuses, but some were quite mediocre or even stupid, and these people were often hidden by the nobles in various ways, and outcasts were what ordinary people called them.
"This is not accurate, the eldest lady has at least some magical talent, although this does not hide her natural leadership and political nature."
Lauren corrected.
"Since you admit it, then I don't need to explain any more, did you become her maid to help that natural lady?"
"Yes, it is for this purpose that the head of the family made me the maid of the eldest lady."
"So for this purpose, you want to take this opportunity to swallow the whole of Mystirion and let them do it for your eldest lady...... Or is it the service of the head of the family? ”
"What are you talking about...... Not exactly, I don't deny that it's all for the eldest lady, but what I want to do is not to swallow the Mystilian, but to create a place for the eldest lady where she can live in peace. ”
"What do you mean......"
"Things are very dark among the nobility, although the eldest lady is in Mystilian, but there are still many people who want the body of the eldest lady, about this matter, the head of the family is very hesitant, to be honest, it is not a bad thing to let the eldest lady become someone's property, but considering the eldest lady's magical talent, it is more appropriate to use it as her own property than as a bargaining chip in the transaction, so the eldest lady can continue to live in Mistylian."
"Do you want to put your daughter here as a merchandise...... It's complicated, but well, I know your purpose. ”
"Thank you for understanding, but could you please explain your purpose?"
Lauren owes herself.
"Me? Well, I don't have such a great reason as you, I have something that I have to investigate, so I can't let you go against Wang **** right now, that's it. ”
"I beg your pardon, what do you want to investigate?"
"No comment."
"Really...... So can I understand your words to mean that if I help you investigate the events you want to investigate, you are not my opponent, and you can even be my companion? ”
