Mawanga’s Secret Real Estate 144

Chapter 144 – Chapter 12 – A Passing Maid

Ashley was dumbfounded, and she finally gave in to her request while growling that she was crazy.
She couldn’t understand in what spirit she was requesting a maid from Palatina, and she didn’t even want to, but since she promised to do the favor, she said she couldn’t help it.

“Then, can I bring someone with me?”
“Sorry, but not that. I would like a maid who cleans well and moves quickly, but doesn’t talk too much.”
“There are many things I wish for. I’ll just take someone with me.”
“For a demon who will keep her promise, she has a lot of complaints. Are you not willing to listen?”

At Klaus’s words, Ashley yelled that she knew as she grumbled once again.
She wonders for a moment to see which of the maids whose contracts are short-lived meets Klaus’s terms, then she snaps her fingers.

“Come to think of it, there is a maid who meets your requirements. Although I’m not talking too much.”
“What about maid work skills?”
“Above average. Like you said, I clean well and do my job well. But the number of words is really small. No, to be honest, I’ve never seen him say anything other than ‘yes’.”
“Good.”
“… Is it really good? No matter how quiet a maid is, she likes a maid who can communicate basicly. Because he really has no words.”
“What’s your name, that maid?”

Klaus continues to ask questions as if not listening to Ashley.
The lord of Palatinath sighed and gave an answer.

“Flanche.”

That’s right, that’s the name, the strongest maid in history. Planche.
I still don’t understand why the hell they put in that setting, but first of all, the strongest maid is right.
Work skills, other skills, and even night shifts, everything.

“Flanche. I feel like I’m going to do a good job right from the name. Can you call the maid for me?”
“… I said clearly. No matter how good your work skills are, if you can’t have a conversation, that’s really frustrating, right?”
“I understand.”
“Don’t say things like, “I don’t think he’s real because he suddenly came later.”
“I know enough. Do I look like such a petty bastard?”
“The guy who came all the way here and only asked for a maid speaks very nicely.”

At Ashley’s grumbling words, Klaus smiled and said,
So what did you expect me to ask for?
If this was a request, Palatina would not be burdened, and the maid would sign a new contract.

To Klaus’s question, Ashley crossed her arms and replied as if it was natural.
She safely returned the three siblings of Palatinat to their homes, and prevented one of her family lines from collapsing, but she said it was too lame to ask her to do so.
She expected that even if she couldn’t, she would ask for information or plans from the anti-demon lord faction.

Hearing that, Klaus burst out laughing.
It was funny that Ashley said it so seriously, but more than anything, she already knew the next move of the anti-demon king faction as if she had put it on the palm of her hand, so she said it even more funny.

“Anyway, wait. I will tell you to bring that maid with you.”
“Can’t we just call her person and ask her to come?”
“… Yes, I have work to do. It’s noisy, so sit quietly.”

Ashley knew what she was doing and she was leaving her room for a while.
It was to directly inform her two younger brothers, who must be somewhere in the lord’s castle, that Klaus had come.
Other direct descendants of the Palatinate, Atley and Emily, were them.

Ashley, the eldest daughter, smells a bit like a tsundere in comparison, but the two don’t.
Her ego was less strong than her older sister or her older sister, and that’s why she followed Klaus really fervently.
Ashley was also afraid of those two younger siblings, so she wanted to tell them directly that the target they were following had come.

“I will come soon. Wait patiently Do not run away.”
“Shall we suddenly run away after coming in like this? More than anything, the maid hasn’t been introduced yet.”
“I don’t know why the Devil of the South would risk her life for a single maid.”

After that, Ashley left the lord’s office.
Klaus, who was alone for a while, briefly summarized the events that followed.
First of all, since Klaus has worked on Palatinath in advance, it is not difficult to convince.
If the lord had been maintained as the father of the three siblings, it would have been difficult and impossible.
Due to the teaching that true armed forces must be respected whether they are enemies or allies, the three siblings became fans of Klaus, and Klaus made full use of it.

Afterwards, during the Civil War in the East, they will stand at the forefront of the anti-demon faction.
It gives Palatinath, who had been silent on the outside, a chance to make the most of it.
I entrust the most important lead to Palatinat, whom I trust the most.
Well, I put this reason, but the reality is completely different.

No matter how many loyalists there are, their unity is astounding.
Most of all, they will fight to the death, so those who naturally stand in front will suffer extreme damage.
The guy called Yulia’s uncle just gave such a shiny reason in order to perfectly contain the Palatinat, who had helped him in the early days, and also bring down.

‘He’s a really great kid in so many ways. Cancer.’

So Klaus gave the abandoned Palatinath a chance.
A chance to give a very huge candy to the man who is trying to fuck them.

Except for his aides, most of the anti-demon lord faction still think that the Palatinat is still a useful force card for the anti-demon lord faction, so Julia’s uncle put them at the forefront.
The sharp spear blade of the anti-demon faction that first flies at the demon lord.
However, as soon as the blade of the spear started, it suddenly flew backwards towards them.
What would the half-demon king faction’s idiots, who knew nothing about it, think?

‘Their bonds are very loose right now. The situation is constantly changing and the lord keeps changing his supporters, so trust is not properly formed. In such a situation, he thought he would be a strong support force, and the Palatinat, who thought he was a spearhead in the lead, turned into a loyalist and charged towards them? Naturally, it comes down to how perfectly screwed things are from the start.’

In the past, I was really curious about Klaus while watching games, movies, and dramas.
What in the world is that guy’s ‘fraudulent morale’ and the soldiers retreat because their morale is low? How can such a thing be possible?

And after going through the Continental War, he knew very clearly.
Sayings that a favorable wind suddenly turned against the wind and the spirit of the soldiers was broken, or that a battle was defeated just because a flag was broken, are absolutely not bluffs or made-up words.
The soldiers whose morale had fallen once were no longer ‘soldiers’ on the battlefield, but ordinary people or demons holding sharp weapons.

Starting with the half of the Palatinat, the morale of the anti-demon lord faction is shaken, and on the contrary, the morale of the loyalist faction is further boosted, making it blazing as if it will explode at any moment.
In that situation, if the soldiers of the loyalist faction charge, and if there is a Palatinat who thought they were strong supporters of the anti-demon lord faction at the forefront, what would happen to the anti-dark lord’s soldiers?

‘It would be unfair for that man. The Palatinat, who had put a lot of surveillance on and showed no sign of treachery at all. I must have never thought that the family that took the lead by coming to the decisive battlefield would suddenly turn a spear and aim it at itself.’

It was an unfair, absurd and unbelievable sight from the other side’s point of view.
However, for that part, it was Klaus who saved the three siblings by rejecting the advice of his subordinates that he must kill his head even in order to lower the morale of the demons during the Continental War.
Thanks to that, he even made the nobles in the rear suspect how much he ate from the demons.
When he was dismissed from the post of commander of the South, that very thing was even said to be one of the reasons.

In fact, he didn’t have to, if he insisted.
There were any number of anti-demon faction families that could be used besides the Palatinate.
However, all generations of that territory, the three brothers and sisters are true warriors! While doing it, both eyes are twinkling.
It is said that the commander he respects the most is none other than Klaus himself.
Killing them all there and choosing a different family honestly didn’t appeal to me.

‘You have to bend your arms inward. In addition, all three siblings have good abilities, and later under Yulia, they made a lot of contributions, so it was even more beneficial to me. I can’t just choose other guys and become scum who keep me in check.’

Of course, it’s important to live really well, but it’s also important to have no enemies.
A human being next to the demon king is always an inconvenient existence.
That’s why it was good to fill Yulia’s side with people who looked kindly at her as much as possible.

“… ! … !!”

Udangtang! Bang Bang!-

It seems to be coming soon, Klaus muttered and crossed his arms.
And after a while the door slams! It opened, and two men and women who looked similar to Ashley came in.

“I really am. What you said was true.”
“You really are Klaus, older brother.”

The mesmerized gaze, the twinkling eyes blankly staring at Klaus.
Klaus turned around and greeted the faces he hadn’t seen in quite a while.

“Long time no see. Atlee Palatinat, and Emily Palatinat.”
“Oh, long time no see. Commander Klaus.”
“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you, Mr. Klaus.”
“I gave up the position of commander a long time ago, and now I am nothing. So, you can speak comfortably like your sister.”
“Are you comfortable? Who is your sister?”
“Are you my sister? I was trying to learn something while studying Klaus-nim’s materials every day…”
“Shut up, both of you.”

The lord of the Palatinate who opens his ax eye and threatens.
Thanks to you, Atley and Emily are happy! I had to keep my mouth shut.
Because to them, the most terrifying person in the world was their older sister.

“I will apologize for my younger siblings’ nonsense.”
“I accept it. It didn’t sound like bullshit.”

You should just be honest like the two younger brothers.
Also, Ashley had pride, so she couldn’t openly cheer and whimpered from behind.

“Rather than that, I thought it was some kind of thunder when she first spoke.”
“Yes. Suddenly, Klaus-sama came to the East, and then came to our territory. It was to the point that even though I knew he wasn’t the type to joke around, it was said that he was being too playful.”
“It’s an honor to see you again, Commander Klaus.”
“That’s because you’re not the commander.”

During my time on the human side, no noble had ever treated me so politely.
Of course, those who noticed the Marquis of Kienmeyer did not behave rudely, but it could be said that they rarely felt sincerity in their words and actions.

‘It’s funny. At the same time, it is inevitable.’

Why are the evaluation and treatment of Klaus so polar opposite?
Even the human and the demon side are showing the opposite, there is a political reason for that.
It’s pretty dirty, but there’s a good reason why it has to be.

The human aristocrats want to minimize their mistakes.
To do so, the seriousness and damage scale of the continental war must also be reduced to a minimum.
There was a war, but it was a fight worth enduring, and everyone overcame it well.
For that reason, he had to lower the credit for Klaus, who had made a big contribution in the Continental War.
The picture doesn’t fit at all if a continental war isn’t that fatal, but if a commoner who made a contribution there is revered as a hero.

Conversely, the demon side was the losing side as a result, so even though they lost, they tried to convey the feeling that everyone did their best to fight.
And to emphasize that part, the existence of Klaus, who had been beating them from the beginning, was raised.
It’s not that the demons couldn’t fight, it’s that the human named Klaus was so good that we couldn’t help it.

‘The result is this. Even though they are demons, the generation is fascinated by the name Klaus.’

Smart-.

The moment when Klaus was baptized with questions by Attley and Emily.

A knocking sound came from beyond the door of the office.
