Miss Demon Maid

“I used to believe in the Goddess ……”

Mr. Elias and I have reconciled safely.

But still, Mr. Elias is a sturdy man, isn’t he? I know that he was “immortalized” by the goddess. But I’m impressed that he came back on his feet only a little wobbly after I knocked him over the roof and into the street.

“Then let me tell you what I know.”

First of all, it is an exchange of information.

The existence that is called 【Goddess】 in this country was originally a mere human being who was a priestess of an old dragon with power.

The fact that she took away the power from the old dragon, whose power was temporarily weakened, and created a [Box Garden World] for her to do as she wished.

And when I explained to Mr. Elias that the dragon clan would launch an offensive against the goddess as soon as the warding was broken.

“I see. ……”

Mr. Elias, who was thinking about something with a slightly grim face, spoke of his considerations.

First of all, regarding the [Box Garden World], according to what Mr. Elias felt, the area of the surrounding six countries …… centered on this Algray Kingdom is roughly half the area of Western Europe. The influence of the goddess is strong in this area.

The Goddess’s [Box Garden World] certainly seems to be stable with fewer threats from the outside world. But even though there was a lot of danger in the outside world, it felt like progress was being made without stagnation.

The people in the outside world didn’t seem to have any special 【Skills】, so assuming that the benefit of 【Skills】 was due to the Goddess, if someone is opposed to the Goddess, the skills might not be useable.

Well, Mr. Elias has trained himself quite a bit, and there’s no way that a lady who looks like a dunce would have decent skills in the first place, so there’s no problem.

“The important people that the goddess has chosen are immortal, but please be aware that if anything happens, their benefits will also be erased.”

“…… I’ll keep that in mind.”

Mr. Elias is willing to live the same life as before for now and deceive the goddess’s eyes, while also cooperating with us when things happen.

Perhaps someone like him might be the natural enemy of the 【Hero】 or some other being like us, so it would be helpful if he didn’t turn into an enemy.

”Just in case you want to go to …… this is for you.”

“What does this mean?”

“It’s a good luck charm, sir.”

When I wrap the black spider silk – which mimics my hair – around Master Elias’ finger, he thanks me with a very impressed look on his face.

‘Thank you …… I’ll take good care of it.”

It’s simply an item that weakens the influence of the goddess and makes it harder to see him, but why is he so pleased?

Be that as it may, I wouldn’t want to fight a goddess head-on if I could.

I’m proud to say that I’m superior in skill, but I don’t intend to be foolish enough to fight head-on against an opponent who is superior in power.

It would be nice if I could trap the Goddess, but until the Goddess is caught off guard and divulges the location of her existence, I’ll have to sit back and wait for the prey to get caught in the spider’s web.

Now, let me return to my normal duties. Today, I have another important job to do to give calories to milady’s bouncy body.

“Milady, the dress has been chosen, but how shall we decorate it?”

“There was that too.”

Milady, who was eating the rich New York cheesecake, suddenly looked sad.

“…… Miss. There’s still more to come.”

“I wasn’t sad because I do not have enough to eat.”

Seems like I was wrong.

“So, do you want a refill?”

“I’ll have …….”

Milady demands a refill with a look of anguish on her face as she pokes her two arms. That’s exactly for what I am here, milady.

But don’t worry, you won’t be troubled. The milk from the demon material is high in protein and low in calories, and most of the nutrition is poured into the chest area, so it is still within the acceptable range.

I think it’s adorable to have a little bit more …… but milady seems to have a little bit of a maiden’s heart that she cares about.

“…… I have a jewel from my mother.”

“Is it the jewel of your birth mother …… Lady Kyria?”

What Lady Kiria left behind for the milady wasn’t just an [expansion bag] that could store a large number of items.

Most of the things were taken by her stepmother and were sold off. But only the largest item of jewelry remained, and it was delivered by her brother Joan, who had changed his mind.

“Here it is.”

“…… What does this say?”

It was a stunning amethyst, about the size of the tip of her thumb, similar to the color of the milady’s eyes.

The gemstone itself is very expensive, but it seems to have been roughly handled and the metal was corroded.

“This is also …….”

“Miss, may I polish it up a bit?”

“What? Yes, Letty, I am fine with that.”

With permission, I polished it with my special spider silk cloth and scraped off some of the surfaces, and it was bright in the color of an amethyst and showed a sparkle that seemed to radiate from within.

“Letty …… this is.”

“I’ve never seen one in person before, but I believe this is a purple diamond.”

It’s probably one that Lady Kiria got in the dungeon.

Colored diamonds vary in price depending on their color, but with a diamond of this size, they should be worth thousands of gold coins.

“It’s possible that Lady Kiria found out about her condition and disguised it, but it looks like it was taken from her before milady could get it.”

“Mother ……”

“Leave it to me, milady. We’ll make a suitable decoration for this.”

“So, Mr. Andy. We need your help.”

“…… You again.”

I walked into the knight’s quarters where Mr. Andy is.

“I need your help”

“What now?”

If you look at me like that, you will be misunderstood by the other knights, as if I always bring in problems.

I told him about Lady Kiria’s diamond and asked him to fix the ornamental part and give it to milady from Mr. Andy’s hand.

“…… Right.”

I muttered a thought to myself and he readily agreed to it.

I thought it would be somewhat difficult to persuade him, but it’s …… strange. He has always drawn a line because milady is a candidate for Mr. Joel’s fiancé, so I wonder if that has changed in some way.

Well, anyway, I’m glad that Mr. Andy agreed to do so.

Normally, I would put a lot of effort into making it, but platinum is hard to come by here, and for some reason, I’ve become somewhat uncomfortable with silver. It’s not because I bought too much white sugar for milady’s calorie count and I’m on a tight budget or anything like that.

Having accomplished my goal, I was on my way back to my room where milady was waiting for me when I saw a familiar face.

“Oh? Miss Ginko, isn’t it? What are you doing here?”

My classmate, a female student in the junior high school group, who was neutral to my tormentors, but, unusually, she’s not with her partner, Miss Fua.

Is there something wrong with her? I feel like she is dizzy on her feet.

Has she drunk? I’m not one of those people. Normally I wouldn’t care too much about it, but I am a little concerned.

“How are you doing, Miss Ginko?”

“…………”

This is not good. Your eyes are out of focus. Did you get into some bad drugs? At any rate, I administer my special drug to wake her up, and Miss Ginko looks up at me with a huff after a violent twitch of her own accord.

“…… Miss Kamishiro.”

“I’m Fleurety. How are you doing?”

When I asked her that, Miss Ginko’s face, with a slight shade under her eyes, was twisted as if she were about to cry.

“…… I don’t know. I don’t know. I hear a strange voice ……. I am a heroine, it’s telling me to do this or that …….”

Oh, yeah? Did something get caught in a spider web, by any chance?
