Chapter 36: Maid Rules
(M-me first to drink?)
Upon hearing Elus say that, Lonis was completely stunned.
Do I still have the right to eat first?
Or, this beef soup has been poisoned! That’s why I have to go first to test for poison…
No, this is the meal I made, how could it be poisoned?
……
Lonis showed a silly expression, and Elus noticed her mood, snorted and said, “What’s wrong, why aren’t you eating yet?”
“I, I…”
“Oh? You think that as a masochistic maid, you should only be worthy of drinking soup? Or that you won’t even cooperate with the soup and are only worthy of starving?”
“N-no!”
Lonis hurriedly denied it… This Elus is too terrifying, does she have radar? Why can she think of my thoughts!
(No, Elus seems to really know my thoughts…)
Lonis remembered, Elus said she could feel others’ true emotions.
(Then, in front of Elus, it’s hard for me to keep any secrets?)
Thinking of this, Lonis didn’t dare to meet Elus’s gaze… However, this black-haired girl didn’t let go of the opportunity to bully Lonis:
“Hmph hmph, Lonis, don’t worry. As your Master, I will of course properly train you, this masochistic maid~”
“Eh?”
“But, it’s not about eating. Your body already has problems, so you must eat on time. I will properly bully you after you have enough energy.”
“N-no, I don’t want to be…”
“Oh? Aren’t you grateful for my ‘gift’? (Takes out the remote control.)”
“Woo woo woo!”
……
……
Of course, Lonis couldn’t finish so much beef soup by herself.
So she sat at the dining table and had dinner with Elus.
“You know how to use a spoon, right? I don’t need to teach you, do I?”
“Th-this, of course I know how to use it.”
“Good. You’re not so stupid that you’re beyond saving.”
“I’m not stupid…”
For some reason, although she was eating dinner with Elus “equally,” sitting opposite this black-haired girl, Lonis had the illusion of being a little lamb.
“After you finish eating, go and check the Maid Rules.”
“R-rules?!”
“Yes, I am a very kind Master. Even if you question the rules and don’t follow them, I will definitely not tie you up and punish you with various toys~”
Elus squinted her eyes and smiled brightly.
Seeing that smile, Lonis knew the thoughts of this black-hearted beautiful girl… She was happy to see her disobey, because then Elus would have a legitimate reason to ravage her.
This sadistic, black-hearted beautiful girl just liked to see her unable to resist, and finally accept it in humiliation.
Therefore, she absolutely cannot fall for her trick.
This is what Lonis thought, so after finishing dinner, she opened the Maid Rules.
It was written as follows.
……
……
As my exclusive slave maid, Elus, you need to follow these points.
1. Obey the Master’s orders, cook meals on time every day, wash clothes, and keep yourself and your living environment clean.
2. Maintain the correctness of your work attire. You will wear whatever the Master tells you to wear, with no room for negotiation. You must seek the Master’s permission before changing or removing clothes each time.
3. When encountering humans other than the Master, you are not allowed to speak casually without the Master’s permission.
4. Maintain a proper posture. When sitting, keep your knees together. When standing, take small steps. When kneeling, be devout and dignified. When meeting the Master, use respectful terms and smile.
5. Every night before sleeping, warm the Master’s bedding for half an hour, but you are not allowed to sleep in the Master’s bed. Slaves need to sleep in a designated slave sleeping spot.
6. Everything else, and anything not yet thought of.
……
……
Looking at these Maid Rules, Lonis felt like dying!
What kind of excessive rules are these? I’m completely like a toy, without any dignity!
Lonis wanted to extend her hand and tear up this contract to show her resistance. But Elus was opposite her, the silver-haired girl held the Maid Rules, but her hands couldn’t exert any force.
“How is it? You masochistic maid, you must be very happy, right?”
“I…”
“If you’re happy, press your handprint at the bottom of the rules.”
“!”
Lonis looked up and found that Elus had also finished the beef soup and was walking towards her step by step.
The black-haired girl was half a head taller than her, so in Lonis’s eyes, she was exceptionally oppressive… With just a reach, she could push her onto the bed; with ropes, she would be tightly bound by her arms and unable to move at all.
So, they are called “rules”… But even if she didn’t press her handprint, she couldn’t disobey her orders at all.
It’s just that Elus did this intentionally to bully herself, to admire her blushing expression…
So, she absolutely cannot let her scheme succeed!
As long as she doesn’t feel shy, doesn’t feel embarrassed, it’s her victory.
After all, Han Xin even crawled between others’ legs back then, and I’m a man, I’m not afraid of anything!
……
“Hmph, press it then. I’m not afraid.”
So, Lonis looked up, not to be outdone, and pressed her handprint.
“Okay, as expected of the former Brave Miss, you are indeed decisive~”
“Woo…”
“Then I will frame this contract on the wall, so you can see it every time you pass by.”
“Eh…?!”
Lonis’s pretty face blushed. She had expected Elus to bully her, but she didn’t expect her to be so evil!
Doesn’t this mean that every time Lonis sees the rules, she’ll realize her current identity as a slave maid and feel ashamed and embarrassed?
……
And while Lonis was dazed, Elus smirked again and said:
“Next, I’ll take you to see your sleeping nook.”
“Nook…?”
“Yes, this is where you will sleep.”
“!”
Lonis never imagined that the sleeping spot Elus designated for her was actually the storage compartment under the bed!
It didn’t look spacious. Although there was a blanket spread out, if Lonis slept inside, she would have to curl up her body to get in.
And once the cabinet door was locked, Lonis wouldn’t be able to see any light, and she wouldn’t be able to get out, just like a girl imprisoned in a cage, only able to moan helplessly.
Although Lonis wasn’t afraid of the dark, she couldn’t stand sleeping in such a place…
“Elus, this… this is too much!”
“Oh, too much?”
“Of c-course! Who would sleep in such a narrow space, and besides… aren’t there other places on the ship?”
“There are many seats, but there is only this one bed!”
“Eh?”
“Because when the magic airship flies in the sky, it will be bumpy. If you sleep elsewhere, I can’t guarantee your safety.”
“Th-things like this…”
“Of course. I am very kind, so if Lonis wants to sleep in the bed, that’s also possible.”
“!”
Lonis’s eyes widened with joy, but then she realized a crucial problem.
There was only one bed on the ship, which meant she had to sleep with Elus, so…
……
“Hmph hmph, you noticed, right? You, although you are currently a masochistic beautiful girl, I haven’t forgotten that you were an idiot hero in your past life.”
“Uh…?”
“So, if you want to sleep in the same bed as me, it’s not impossible. But to prevent you from trying to grope me at night, I will tie your hands behind your back and put an eye patch and a collar on you. How about it, are you willing to accept it?”
“How could I possibly accept it!”
It’s one thing to be bullied when awake, but if she were also bound while sleeping, Lonis would truly have no rest time at all.
“If you’re still not satisfied, then choose your own sleeping place?”
“Uh…”
Lonis glanced at the cabin, and indeed there was nowhere for her to sleep.
Single sofas, although they looked beautiful. But after sleeping for a long time, her neck would definitely get stiff.
After thinking about it, it seemed that only the storage room under the bed was the most suitable.
