7. Bad ideas at your fingertips
As a maid, how can you not make omelet rice?
Although she hadn't touched the kitchen for a long time, Lilith still had absolute confidence in her cooking skills, but when Lilith brought the egg-packed rice that looked like it would make people appetizing, the little master who was unexpectedly difficult to serve actually frowned.
Doesn't this guy know that his omelet rice is already a limited commodity in the restaurant?
"Wow, sister, it's so fragrant!" "I", who didn't know what game he was playing with Verard, immediately blinked and glared at him pitifully like a puppy after smelling the sweet aroma of omelet rice.
No...... Even if you are "yourself", this is not for you to eat.
"Do you like it?"
Villard was surprised and touched his head affectionately, it seemed that in the short time since he left, Villad had achieved a mysterious friendship with "himself".
"Hmm! ”
"Then eat, I'm not very interested in human food. With a slightly lonely expression on his face, Villad picked up the toy on the bed, the familiar teddy bear.
What a stubborn child, who looks like he wants to see Mista, but he still has to pretend to be very angry.
"Miss, what are you thinking?" Lilith sat down beside Villard, "are you thinking about Mista?"
“...... Who, who is thinking about her. Villad replied as he hurriedly looked back from the window.
"Yes. Lilith nodded, "It's just a hybrid, but it's a mongrel. Indeed, you don't deserve to be by your side, Miss. ”
"Shut up, what do you know as a human being?"
"That's right. I don't understand. But why is it that the young lady who understands all this seems even more ignorant than I am?" Lilith smiled as she met Villad's thoughtful eyes, "It's not difficult to apologize, or is it because you feel that you can't let go of your status?"
"But...... Would she forgive me if I said something like that?"
"Yes, definitely. Believe me. ”
Picking up Verard and herself, who was still licking the plate, Lilith walked towards the garden. If it was only the first time they met, Lilith was not sure, but judging from the behavior of Mista, she had met her before, even if Verard was to kill her with a knife, she would stick her head out.
I don't know if he said it on purpose, or if he was caught up in his own words, but on the way to the garden, Villard had already made Mista's matter more or less clear.
Leaving aside the "noble" bloodline of the vampires. Mista and Verard are actually half-sisters, of course. Mista is the older sister. Verard's father, I think he was more attentive, or for some other reason, Mista's mother, the hybrid of humans and orcs, was left with Mista, an even more cursed child. Perhaps judging from the blood flowing in her body, just being mixed is not enough to describe her.
Mista's most common nickname is the mongrel. In some senses, though, this is true. Because it is a mixed-race relationship, Mista's mother died early, and Mista, who has lost the last protective umbrella, can only be his sister, that is, Villad's servant.
Fortunately, Verard's mother didn't bother her much because of this, and Mista seemed to like Verard very much, so life passed in such twisted conditions for a long time.
If this is the case, then this kind of anger after the quarrel is even more meaningless.
"Mista?"
It was Lilith who was the first to shout, and Mista, who looked like she had shrunk into a ball, was crouching in front of the flower bed with her eyes in circles.
"Rose...... Rosebush...... Ahh
"Tulips, tulips...... Ahh
"Are you so scared?" Lilith handed the tulips she had plucked to Mysta, and pointed at Villard, "Go talk to Miss, I'll leave it to me." ”
"Little Miss!?"
“...... Come here. ”
For some reason, after the first glimpse of Mista, Villard, who was still relatively soft, immediately became stronger, although this may have been just a move she made to hide her shyness. However, can Mista, who was already stunned, really notice it?
"Sister......
"Let's water the flowers. "Vampires are active at night, so it also causes Lilith physical discomfort, after all, for humans, night is still a time to rest.
After a while, the "self" next to him had already begun to doze off, and even his eyes had to close when he walked.
I really can't do anything about "myself".
Lilith was about to pick herself up when suddenly the red light flashing from the roof caught her attention.
No, it always feels like the one in Mammon's hand...... The spear stolen from Villard - the red glow that Gunnigal would emit.
【Whoosh】
Damn, can't you just make yourself a maid!?
Hurriedly hugging "herself" into her arms, after making sure that "herself" was safe, Lilith calmly began to wave her hand at the spear that was about to fly in front of her.
The speed is not fast, and the power does not seem to be great, is this just a temptation? Speaking of which, the angle of the spear thrown out does not seem to be aimed at itself, and it seems that it is in its way.
However, now is not the time to regret it, since it has been discovered that he has magic, let's show her his strength.
"That's right, Lady Eve!?"
Since it is already in an illusion, there is no need to think about not being able to destroy the building, soon. Under the influence of projection. Lilith made a lot of copies of the power difference. But a good number of copycats of Gunnigal.
"That's ...... Projection?"
"Well, that's right, and that's how projection should be. ”
Lilith snapped her right hand, and the night was soon covered in a dull gray screen.
The temporal magic that came to mind, well, is called "World", because in this small world, only you can control its flow.
"Lady Eve. I really just want to be a good maid for a while. ”
Facing Eve, who had already been frozen, Lilith continued to increase the number of Gonnigal, and her expression was also connected to the still Eve, who could actually hear her own words.
"Are you right?"
Time that stood still flowed again, and the knock-off version of Gonigal that had just stayed with Eve flew towards Eve in all directions as if he didn't want money.
No, how can you release water in a fight? Just like Loki said, either you don't make a move, and if you make a move, don't give the opponent a chance to fight back and turn the tables. A lot of people lose because they keep their hands.
So, my own purpose is just to ......
"One last moment. ”
Black arms like mud reached out to Eve's neck. At the same time, it also drew an end to this fleeting battle. Although, Eve definitely retains her strength.
"It was wonderful. I think you'll be more than that. Eve didn't care about the creepy-looking arms in front of her neck, "I think it's because of you that my memory suddenly appeared unreasonable, that is, you and your sister are here as maids." ”
“...... Even so. ”
In this case, it is useless to explain the illusion to her.
"So, magician, is there something in our house that attracts you? ”
"Treasure...... "Occasionally, I want to experience life with my sister, or do you feel uncomfortable with me as a maid and bodyguard by your daughter's side?"
"The tone of your voice is quite similar to that of a witch who has been rumored to be in vogue lately. ”
Witch ...... Most likely, it's his mother.
"It's good to be like that. Then madam, I'll leave with my sister first. ”
Picking up "herself" who was sleeping in the flower garden, Lily walked to the castle without any worries.
"It's not impossible to stay, but be careful. physically, and mentally. ”
......
He seems to have been recognized in the castle, and Villad soon walked back hand in hand with Mista, obviously not long ago they were still angry with each other, and the friendship of the children was really simple and straightforward.
"You two don't have to follow me. ”
This was Villard's first sentence after he returned, and although she knew that it was unintentional, Lilith couldn't help but want to complain that Villad was a little ungrateful.
"You can go and work in place of Mista. ”
"Okay, no problem. As long as she could stay here, Lilith naturally had no reason to refuse, "But how did you two get along?"
"Actually, it's not ......"
"Mademoiselle doesn't want to marry a man. But I don't think that's right. ”
"Hey, Mista, what are you talking about!" Villad hurriedly gagged Mista, but it was too late. Just this sentence already has enough information for Lilith to associate with.
"But Miss, you taught me that if someone asks a question, if you know, you must answer it?"
"That's not the kind of question!" Villad stomped his foot in anger, probably out of fear of asking himself, and quickly got into bed with the teddy bear in his arms.
"Mista, is it really because of the marriage contract?"
Generally speaking, there will be something similar to "finger marriage" between nobles, as long as it is not the same gender, basically this kind of thing is difficult to avoid. And vampires have always paid attention to the nobility of bloodline, and if they want to maintain noble bloodline, it is inevitable that there will be some marriage contracts that normal humans will not accept.
It's good to marry a cousin or something, and even more so you have to intermarry with a blood relative. Verard's mother doesn't seem to be an ordinary nobleman, so compared to the male vampire who can be worthy of Verard, it must have something to do with her.
"Can you tell me who is married?"
"Miss's brother!" Before Verard could stop him, Mista blurted out again, but this time Verard was not shy, but a little impatient and angry.
"It turned out to be my brother...... Miss, is it my own brother?"
"I won't marry him if it's a kiss or not!That kind of man who hugs left and right is the most disgusting!" Verard's face was written with disgust for eating fruit, although the reason is unknown, but Verard didn't look like he was arrogant.
"Then, seeing that you are so impatient, are you already going to marry him immediately?"
"Not yet, but I'm not going to marry him! If mom pushes me again, I'll run away with Mista!"
"Miss!...... So impressed. ”
Don't get moved in this situation!
"I see. "Maybe it's the witch's nature that is at work, but in just a moment, many ideas that are not good ideas have come to Lilith's mind.
Seeing that Verard is so resistant, it is not impossible to help her.
"Miss, if you really don't plan to get married, do you need my help?" (To be continued......)
