Chapter 550 – 010 Thank You for Visiting My Master’s Mansion.
Sure… If it’s a fantasy world I know.
All the benefits I receive as an apprentice maid are only insufficient due to the master’s consideration…
It seems enough to arouse the jealousy of commoners who were not chosen by their master.
Of course, we need a maid to protect the mansion and the owner. This is an understandable piece of equipment.
In order not to forget my awareness as my master’s maid.
Although I had to compromise on practicality. It’s equipment that lets you recognize that you’re a maid, right?
As I was finishing that thought, I saw the end of the hallway.
Just like my mind, it is natural that there is nothing to do except the maid work I am learning for my master.
I walked through the decorated but seemingly empty hallways and arrived at the main hall.
I’m walking carefully, maybe it’s because the floor is all polished marble
It’s inevitable that the sound of the sound is heard.
Phew…
Because we have arrived now. Now all I have to do is start the self-report that I have repeated more than five times…
“N 4. Report.”
It hurts. There were no special problems or strange things I found while working. I stood in the same place as yesterday.
Like the maids who have already arrived and given their report and are now looking straight ahead
A seat assigned to naturally prepare for the day’s work.
Moved to the position of Apprentice Maid No. 4.
“N1. Join C ranks. Instructions are the same as yesterday.”
“Yes. S12”
“N2. Today is a combat talent aptitude test. Go to the training area.
Please get more detailed information there.”
“Yes! It’s a training ground, right? We’ll move right away!”
And then it’s my turn. The time has come to assign duties as the master’s fourth apprentice maid.
Just like last time. Also, like yesterday, I thought I would join the S ranks and take on general cleaning duties in the mansion. This time I was assigned a different task.
“N4. The master’s guest is scheduled to visit at noon.
Please wait in the waiting room from now on.”
“Okay. S12”
More than just a master’s apprentice maid. The instructions from S12, the management maid who distributes work, are absolute.
I just gave you the obvious answer without saying anything else.
As I answered naturally, I have already started to think of a path to carry out the instructions in my head.
To use an analogy, I would say there is another me in my head.
The fastest route to reach the waiting room where you need to go while remembering all the routes to the master’s mansion.
I started calculating the shortest distance.
Just like yesterday, I was told to join the S column. I thought you were managing the master’s garden along with the maids who were allowed to serve the master.
A… I was suddenly instructed to prepare to welcome guests to the mansion…
Of course, refusing was not an option. Still, I was very embarrassed.
As soon as I enter the garden and think about what I have to do as my master’s apprentice maid, no complicated thoughts come to mind.
Rather, it feels like all the useless thoughts I’ve already created are being completely emptied.
Because only the things I have to do remain in my mind. Fill the spray bottle with water… And spray the water…
It was also a simple and convenient task that just had to be moved to the next location and repeated.
Because I haven’t heard exactly when the owner’s important guest will arrive. It moved the fastest without making any sound.
A reception room for receiving guests who arrived after going around the hallway three times.
As the master said. Since I didn’t know anything, I was encouraged to start learning now, but…
But right now, I don’t know anything.
Even for an apprentice maid who knows nothing, the reception room for guests is extremely luxurious.
After that, I went into the separate maid waiting room and checked to see if any of my clothes were disheveled again.
After checking that the white ribbon worn as proof that you are an apprentice maid not assigned to main duties is dirty.
So that you can welcome your important guests at any time.
To maintain my position as the master’s maid
I moved next to the maids who had already arrived earlier than me and were standing there.
Put your hands together in front of you. So as not to offend the owner. Make a smile naturally…
I don’t know when you will come into this room. Because I was given the honor of being able to serve my master as a maid at any time…
Because… We can easily do this time too?!
Knock… Tick… Knock… Tick…
I tried to stand still while listening to the sound of the pendulum coming from the clock…
I don’t even know how much time has passed… Um…
Knock. Knock. You can tell how much time has passed by looking in the direction from where you hear the sound of the pendulum ticking.
The task I received today was not from a maid complaining about how much time had passed.
One of the maids who attend important guests who visit the master’s mansion.
This is because they are not maids officially assigned to reception duties, but are merely apprentices.
Unless you’re standing still and looking straight ahead. These are all actions that have nothing to do with my job as a maid, right?
“…”
Because I think so…
Looking at the clock to check how much time has passed
Because I thought it was behavior that had absolutely nothing to do with my job as a maid…
My mind felt refreshed because it felt like all my thoughts had been completely erased.
Still, I want to keep standing still.
Even when I fell from the sky, I only felt a little stiff.
Even that got better the day I asked to be allowed to work as my master’s maid.
My feet don’t feel numb or anything like the maids standing next to me. Still, I don’t think it’s the job for me.
Of course, I know that it is my duty as a maid to wait for guests who don’t know when they will arrive, right?
The moment I was about to think that later, when asked about my aptitude as a reception maid, I would have to say that I was not suited.
Sigh. Without the sound of the door opening. A reception room that opens really smoothly.
The eyes of us who have been waiting as maids for a long time. Even though I didn’t promise, I moved beyond the open door.
A guest who was invited by the owner and visited the mansion.
Of course, I was instructed to do my best to serve him as an honored guest.
As taught. While showing the smile that I prepared from the beginning until now.
I greeted the owner with gratitude for accepting his invitation.
“It’s been a while since I’ve been here.”
While looking around the luxuriously decorated reception room, I couldn’t find the person who was supposed to be there
The customer turns his gaze to us as the master’s maids.
“Huh? Where is Ior? Where is your master?”
He was invited by the owner and visited at a set time. I guess he was a little angry because the owner wasn’t there.
The distinguished guest speaks as if he is scolding.
After exchanging glances naturally…
I don’t know why that conclusion was reached…
Well… I’m an apprentice maid.
They are also qualified to resist instructions from official maids who have been permitted to exist by their master. Because I have no intention of doing so.
The reason why the master, Ior Butein, is not here… Although it was not my fault.
I had to apologize on behalf of the owner, so I apologized sincerely and explained it.
“I am truly sorry. It looks like the owner is behind schedule and will be a little late for the promised time.”
After that, not the reception room. I exchanged glances with the maid, who was calmly lowering her head with her hands clasped in front of the reception room door.
Have you notified the owner that the guest you invited has arrived?
When I looked at it with the intention of checking, the maid in charge of the reception nodded slightly.
Now that I have confirmed the facts. I apologized again for the sake of my master’s honor.
“I told the owner that you have arrived, so please wait a little longer. I am truly sorry.”
I apologize on behalf of the owner. By saying this, I reassure the guest who came for the owner.
It was a short time, but I remembered what I learned…
Hold the end of the skirt with both hands…
I lifted my head slightly and bowed my head in a truly sorry manner, making a salute as a maid.
“Well, it’s normal for him to be late.”
Also. It seems to have worked well. Standing still didn’t seem to suit me well…
“I haven’t done this once or twice.”
The maid in charge of reception may be surprisingly talented.
“Still, please allow me to apologize on behalf of my master. I am truly sorry.”
“It’s okay. I know that receiving an apology like this is meaningless.”
Did you decide to wait for the owner who was late for an appointment due to personal work? The distinguished guest sits down and holds his glass lightly.
Of course, I was taught the names of visiting guests. Even the master.
It’s rude for me, who isn’t even an official maid, to think of the customer’s name.
I lifted the silver tea pot with a pretty engraving…
I carefully poured tea to the grateful guest who came to see the owner.
It started to come to mind a while ago.
Besides me, there are three other maids in the reception room for entertaining guests…
Instead of me, who is just an apprentice. She is officially recognized as a maid… And in charge of reception…
Why do you keep looking only at me?
