18. Crooked
Merlin squatted in the bath, looking at the head maid who was standing by the bath waiting for him to get up, and was a little embarrassed for a while.
The two looked at each other for a moment, and Merlin suddenly remembered that he seemed to be a prince now, a nobleman, and the noble lord didn't even need to wear his own clothes, and there would be special servants to work for them.
Although generally speaking, the job of dressing the male master should be the responsibility of the personal valet, but it is a pity that Merlin does not have a so-called personal valet, after all, he was still a baby when he was cursed, so naturally he did not have time to recruit, and now among the cursed servants in the castle, only the chief maid is still in human form.
So, of course, the head maid also took over the work of taking care of Merlin's daily life.
"I'll go, am I going to just stand up like this, and have a pretty maid lady dress me? Where did this dream come from? ”
Merlin's heart was a little fluttering, but it was a stroke of cowardice in action, especially the expressionless stiff face of the maid sister, he was really not so open in front of such a serious woman.
"What is the original owner's habits, if he is used to letting the head maid help him get dressed, then I can't break the persona, so as not to be seen as an impostor."
Merlin found a reason in his mind, and then flipped through the memories of the original owner.
And then .....
"Cut, why are you so independent, original owner, are you a real prince after all?"
He was a little speechless to find that since the original owner was sensible, he began to deliberately distance himself out of distrust of the maid master, and then he did the private work such as dressing up.
Ah, the cute maid lady has a welfare wood that dresses herself.
I was a little depressed in my heart, but the character couldn't collapse, Merlin had to pretend to be cold and said to the head maid.
"Got it, you go outside and wait for me, I'll be there soon."
"Yes, Your Highness."
The head maid obeyed the order, and then turned and left the bath, but her back seemed to be a little lost.
Merlin stood up when he heard the door open, and when he came to the dressing room next door, he saw a set of clothes neatly folded on the cabinet.
Walking up to take a look, Merlin was quite surprised by these clothes that he had only seen in TV and movies in his previous life.
"It's just a family meeting, as for the dress so formal?"
Looking at the black suit, Merlin was a little speechless, it was so troublesome to be an aristocrat or something.
Putting on a light-colored shirt, a light-colored waistcoat, and a black double-breasted dress jacket, and the lower body was wearing trousers that were the same black as the jacket, fastening the waistband and tie, Merlin looked at himself in the mirror.
What is reflected in the mirror is a beautiful boy who seems to have come out of a movie, because he has been in the castle all day, he has not been exposed to the sun for a long time, his skin looks a little sickly pale, the top of his head is short black hair, with a slight natural curl, under the slender and beautiful eyebrows is a pair of sapphire-like deep eyes, the lips are tightly closed, and the blood-red color contrasts with the pale skin, outlining a somewhat evil beauty.
Although I am not very good at wearing these clothes, the clothes are a little messy, but this does not impress the charm of the boy in the mirror at all, but it is a little more bohemian.
"No, I can't watch it anymore, and if I look at it again, I'm going to be glamorous."
Merlin, who was not yet very accustomed to his handsomeness, looked away, and then opened the door.
"Vile, can you help me sort it out? I think I'll definitely be reprimanded by him if I go to see my sister like this. ”
Finding the head maid waiting at the door like a statue, Merlin called out the head maid's name.
In his previous life, he was a dead house, and he was basically insulated from formal wear, and the only formal wear experience was to be the best man for a good friend who grew up together, of course, for this old antique gentleman's dress that was much more complicated than the simple suit in his previous life, Merlin was a little helpless, he had worked hard to tidy it up, but it was still wrinkled.
If that sister is really as strict as the original owner's memory, then it is inevitable that she will have a poisonous tongue like this.
In desperation, Merlin had no choice but to ask the head maid for help, although this may slightly reveal a flaw in the personality, but anyway, the relationship between the original owner and the head maid is not very good, this flaw should not matter.
Merlin thought.
However, the head maid, who heard his request, suddenly turned around, and although she could not make an expression on her face as a doll, Merlin could see disbelief in her eyes.
"Uh, the character has collapsed?"
Merlin panicked, he regretted that he had just bothered the head maid.
He racked his brains to think about how to save the character, but then he saw the head maid, who had always been calm and composed, nodding extra hard.
"Yes, Your Highness, it's my pleasure."
Even the voice, which should not fluctuate at all, seemed to tremble, revealing that the owner of the voice was not in a calm mood at this time.
After all, it was supposed to be the exclusive guard that His Royal Highness the Prince trusted the most, but he was always snubbed by his master, and he deliberately distanced himself, and this kind of sadness that was almost like the meaning of existence was denied was only understood by the head maid herself.
Now His Royal Highness the Prince would rarely ask himself to help sort out his clothes, you must know that such an intimate act has not been between the two since the little prince was five years old, and for a while the head maid was moved to tears.
It's a pity that she has long lost the ability to shed tears as a puppet.
Using superb martial arts to forcibly stabilize the body that was a little trembling because of the excitement, the maid chief who was more than 1.75 meters tall squatted down, patiently and carefully arranging the clothes for the little prince.
In the end, in the hands of the chief maid, the folds on the clothes and trousers were smoothed, the crooked tie and belt were straightened, and the Merlin Lika, who was originally like a dissolute nobleman, was transformed into a little gentleman, decent and neat.
If you have a cane in your hand and a top hat on your head, you will be more like a gentleman who has come out of a British drama.
"Thanks, Vile, it's good to have you."
The man leaned on his clothes, closed his eyes, and looked at the app (appearance) value on the attribute table that had risen by 5 points, and Merlin thanked the maid.
I don't know what the maid is thinking, but it's nice that he's a fake prince who hasn't been revealed.
Relieved, Merlin followed his memory and walked in the direction of the castle's study.
Soon, at the door of the study, he knocked politely.
"Please come in."
From the study, the voice of a sexy woman with a mature appearance came out.
