Chapter 9: The Unqualified Maid

"If the 'past' is regarded as a definite piece of data, time regression is similar to reading a file, and the limit is to return to the state in which things were first born. However, if we treat the 'past' and the 'present' as a set of closely related causes and effects, the retrospection of time becomes the key to the law of cause and effect, and the limit is the realm of the gods who control cause and effect...... Not! Lyle's complexion changed, and he dispersed in the magic array circulating around him, and the local time anomaly returned to normal.

Similar to the [Maid Summoning Technique], which involves the precise opening of dimensional passages, the [Law of Cause and Effect Operation], which involves access to the Akaxia records, is also in a state of 'solid foundation', 'only the last step is missing', and 'this step is relatively easy to take thanks to the reincarnation god'.

No one knows when this step will be taken, maybe tomorrow, maybe it will never be able to get out, but only when this spell enters the door can he be called a qualified oracle, and the oracle who fights by borrowing the power of the true god he serves is only a defective product.

"Forget it, that's all for today." Anyway, it wasn't the first time it failed, Lyle stretched his waist, walked out of the basement where countless defensive magic had been set, and shouted, "Ah Ci, what are you going to have for lunch today~?" ”

No response.

"Ah porcelain?" Lyle shouted several more times, all with the same result.

Just as Lyle was feeling deflated, the water goblin with a hint of aqua blue staggered into the room from the outside, leaving a wet trail on the carpet with every step.

Lyle perked up and asked expectantly, "Ah Shui, why don't you prepare instant noodles for me?" ”

“?” The water elf walked up to Lyle and tilted his head.

Since it has not grown enough to make the water film vibrate at high frequencies, and its physical characteristics make it difficult for others to see the changes in expression with the naked eye, this kind of large-scale body movement is the only way to communicate.

"It's just to take out a packet of instant noodles, put all the contents in a container, soak them in hot water for a few minutes, and finally bring them to me," Lyle explained while demonstrating with his body movements. ”

“?” The water goblin's head still hasn't come straight up.

Lyle hung his head and said, "...... Well, I'll just figure it out myself. ”

“!” The water goblin finally understood Lyle's mood and hugged Lyle with open arms in an attempt to provide comfort.

By touching Lyle, the liquid flows and loses its girlish appearance, turning into a lump of liquid that envelops most of Lyle's body.

"............" Lyle, who was suffocated by the maid, had a deep self-questioning of the decision to 'only recruit the shelter as a maid'.

SCP-191 (Mechanical Girl): After passing the medical examination, it is adopted by the family of a retired Foundation employee and is subject to long-term monitoring.

SCP-187 (Future Vision): Given the magic glasses "Magic Eye Kill", which allows him to shield his abilities when he is not needed, he eventually chooses to work for the SCP Foundation, whose highest mission is to protect humanity.

SCP-054 (Water Fairy): Rather than being an SCP Foundation test subject, he would rather serve Lyle, who released kindness, but his intelligence level is worrying, his professional ability is low, and he can't wear a maid's suit.

SCP-706 (Perfect Porcelain Puppet): Persuaded by Lyle to accept the status of a maid and put on a maid costume, but her mental state is unstable, and she hides in her room at every turn, crying and putting on makeup, trying to turn herself into a good-looking, quiet doll-like daughter that her deceased parents will love.

- Of the four interviewers sent by God back then, Lyle only left two, and in the past few years, compared to the maid service he actually enjoyed, Lyle has put more effort into pouring chicken soup for the soul and improving Ah Shui's intelligence level, and he doesn't know who is taking care of whom.

It's just that it's more comfortable than the five years of the previous single shadow.

》》》》》》

After filling his stomach with the food created by idealistic magic, Lyle first went to Ah Ci's room, hugged and kissed Ah Ci like a doll, proving that there are still people in the world who love her, and then sent Ah Shui back to the water park, turned on the big screen that played entertaining and educational children's educational programs, and finally left this fantasy home with peace of mind.

The moment his feet stepped out of the barrier, the world returned to the dark and cold underground area of SCP Foundation facilities, as a surveillance camera was pointed at Lyle's containment unit, and the Foundation was first informed of his appearance.

Of course, this is not a 'containment breach' that requires the Foundation to be nervous, as Lyle has been tacitly allowed to act freely since many years ago, and as long as he is not evil, even if he wanders down the street, the Foundation will not say anything, at most there is another inconsequential appendix on the file.

"Hmm......?" Lyle had planned to go to the research center on the ground to read the research results of others and secretly erase the unethical experimental projects, but as soon as he came out, he immediately sensed three strange and powerful magical powers, and he couldn't help but move to the floor of the Safe-class containment unit.

It was God's containment unit, and Lyle knocked on the door politely, not to mention whether this was the real God, he had done Lyle a little favor, and Flying Boss would not be used on him.

"Little friend Lyle, please come in~"

After receiving the answer, Lyle pushed the door open and entered, and found that in addition to God, there were three beautiful women with different temperaments.

"Let me introduce you, this is SCP-4679 (Extreme Explorer)." God beckoned to Lyle, and at the same time there was an extra sofa in the room, "Genuine 13-year-old human child, please don't mess around, I guess the three of you can't win him together." ”

"Really?" The three beauties looked at Lyle half stunned and half curious.

"Lots of advice." Lyle didn't forget to say hello.

God went on to introduce, "As for the three, they are SCP-1765 (three sisters), named Atropos, Rachecis, and Crotto. ”

"The Three Goddesses of Fate?" Lyle blinked, his surprise no less than the three.

SCP-1765 occupies a Foundation facility and conducts satirical experiments on Foundation members, which he is aware of, but the names of the three individuals are not on file, only the codenames SCP-1765-1, SCP-1765-2, and SCP-1765-3.

"Hee-hee, after so many years, we are still so famous~" The little sister Croto smiled cutely.

"So, Greek mythology is true?" Remembering that what the three of them had done did not match the image in the mythological story, Lyle changed his words, "...... I mean there are real people. ”

Exuding the charm of a mature beauty, Rachesis smiled: "Basically, they exist, but we don't live on Earth, we only stayed in Greece for a while. ”

"By the way, there is also the Norse god system in your mouth, of course, Ragnarok or anything doesn't exist at all, Odin is still alive." A sunny Atropos added.

"This is really good news to look forward to~" Lyle doesn't mind learning the power of the Greek god system and the Norse god system, "Speaking of which, the three goddesses are here for ...... this time?" ”
