"Eh? Alina, aren't you going to the hall?"
At dusk, towards dusk, two maids were doing cleaning work in a utility room of the Earl's mansion.
Among them, the maid who looked a little older and had her hair tied to one side and fell on her shoulders, looking very virtuous and steady, couldn't help but ask after seeing the sunset outside the window.
Compared to her, the other maid in the utility room looked much younger.
And he seemed a little absent-minded and didn't know what he was thinking.
"Hall? What are you doing there?" Alina held a broom and pretended to wave it back and forth.
"Didn't you hear what Butler Robert said? The big shot who saved Huodian City yesterday, I remember, seemed to be called...Vilian?"
"It's Vivian," Alina corrected with a sigh as she shook her head.
"Yes! That's the name. Look at my memory. As I get older, it's just not as good as you young people."
"Sister Shaolai Qing! You are planning everything, but you are only two years older than me. None of our maids are really old."
"That's because some people pretend not to know, but they actually care more than me!"
After the maid called Sister Qing spoke, Alina curled her lips.
She walked to the bucket used for cleaning in the utility room, and then looked at the water in the bucket. Under her gaze, it began to fluctuate, and then several words appeared.
[Go to the lobby...select...the maid...]
[Late... Nina tailors clothes...]
【...white...】
"Go to the lobby, you let me go to the lobby too! How dare you! You didn't say anything, and everything was messed up in the morning! Now you are asking me to work as a maid for others, how can I be a maid?"
As soon as Alina saw the words in the water, she seemed to think of what happened earlier and looked away angrily. After that, the water in the bucket also seemed to have lost its power and quickly returned to normal.
Just at this moment, Sister Qing's voice came again.
"This is not like you, Alina, haven't you always been inspiring to be the head maid? If you are lucky enough to be selected by such a big shot and be the exclusive maid for a period of time, you will be much closer to your goal. "
"Hmph! I don't even bother relying on this method!" Alina pretended to be very ambitious.
In fact, she had already taken action and ended up sending it.
"It's your sister Qing, you are so beautiful and your breasts are so big, why don't you try it!"
"Don't fool around! That big shot is also a woman. I heard that he is about the same age as our eldest lady."
"What's wrong with women? I'm very greedy for your body, Sister Qing. If I were her, I would definitely choose you, Sister Qing! And then tonight...hehehehe..."
Seeing that Alina became less and less serious the more she spoke, Sister Qing rolled her eyes helplessly. It could be seen that she was used to Alina's character.
"Okay! I'm not carefree like you. Have you forgotten? I have a boyfriend outside. I plan to work for a while longer, save more money, then quit my job and go home to get married."
"Ah!? Really?" Alina was startled immediately, threw away the broom in her hand, and ran to Sister Qing's side.
"Sister Qing, when did you have a boyfriend? Why didn't I know? You must have never told me! Tell me quickly, what is the name of your little boyfriend outside and what does he do?"
Facing Alina who was pestering her like a curious baby, the maid named "Sister Qing" just wanted to speak, but suddenly she couldn't make a sound.
As for Sister Qing's look, to Alina opposite her, she was hesitant to speak, as if she was reluctant to talk to her in too much detail.
Although Alina usually has a quirky personality, her emotional intelligence is still quite high. After seeing this, she immediately stopped asking questions and casually changed the subject.
"Hey, forget it...eh? Speaking of which, Sister Qing, have you seen that guy Lin today? Why haven't I met her in the mansion in all day?"
Alina asked confused.
Lin is a very good friend of hers. They were born in the same village. Although they are not from the same batch, they can be regarded as the front and back. They were selected by Butler Robert and bought into the Earl's Castle. This is quite rare among maids. .
After Alina asked the question, Sister Qing stopped what she was doing and seemed to recall who Lin was for a long time, and then she seemed to suddenly remember.
"I remember when you were away in the morning, Butler Robert seemed to have told us that the village outside the city was in trouble. So, Lin asked him to resign last night and wanted to go out of the city to find her mother."
"What!?" Alina made a more surprised sound than before when she heard that Sister Qing had a boyfriend.
because...
"Sister Qing, what are you talking about? Lin doesn't have a mother. Her mother died when she gave birth to her!"
"Alina! Don't make jokes like this in your family!"
Looking at Sister Qing's serious expression across from her, Alina wanted to speak several times, saying that she and Lin were from the same village, and she knew the other's family best, but in the end she didn't say anything.
After that, Alina looked a little disappointed.
how come...
Resigning is such a big thing, no matter how anxious you are, you should at least talk to yourself...
Next, the more Alina thought about it, the more wrong she felt, because in her impression of Lin, Lin was very disgusted with her native family, so much so that she hated her, especially her beastly father. He told her every time in private that he wished that bitch would die soon.
Would Lin like this really be so determined and quick to resign from such a good job as an earl's maid, and then leave the city overnight?
Or...
Alina suddenly remembered the rumor about the "missing castle maid" that she had just told Vivian in the morning.
Wait a minute, Lin, Lin, could she be...
Snap!
The broom in his hand fell to the ground.
Alina suddenly felt a chill running through her body.
"Huh? What's wrong, Alina?" Sister Qing suddenly heard the voice and came over.
"No...it's okay, ah no! What, Qing...Sister Qing, I thought about it again, and I still feel that it is better for me to go to the lobby to find that Vivian and try my luck. ..”
After Alina finished speaking in a panicked tone, she immediately ran out of the utility room before Sister Qing could speak.
What social death, how embarrassing, has long been forgotten by this young maid at this moment. What she wants to see most now is the figure of the little girl when she wakes up in the morning.
the other side.
"This child..." Sister Qing looked at Alina disappearing in a flash and shook her head.
But soon, a look of confusion appeared on Sister Qing's face.
In the empty utility room where she was alone, Sister Qing frowned and muttered to herself as if trying to remember.
"Boyfriend...my boyfriend..."
"What's your name?"
...
...
Earl's House, Great Hall.
"Liz, I, I think I really... don't need any more maids, right?" The little girl tugged on the clothes of another girl next to her.
After coming out of the Adventurers Association, I went to the Vulcan Cult. Under the auspices of Damir, a simplified bishop conferment ceremony was held. When I returned to the Earl's Manor, it was almost dark.
As a result, before Vivian could take a breath, Liz seemed to have been waiting for her for a long time. As soon as she saw the little girl coming back, she pulled her to take care of the maid's affairs first.
"Liz, I can really take care of myself and don't need to trouble others anymore..."
Vivian looked at the entrance of the hall. Under Liz's arrangement, a row of maids were bowing, saluting her, and then waiting for her to choose one from them. How could the little girl bear such a battle?
As a result, before she could finish speaking, the eldest lady immediately interrupted.
"No! You have to choose one no matter what you say today! This is not about troublesome others, this is about status symbol!"
"The day after tomorrow, you are going to attend the fund-raising dinner hosted by your father. If you don't have an attendant by your side, it will be easy for others to laugh at you. If you look down on you and have a bad impression of you, my father wants to Even if you are elected as a leader, it will be affected by this!"
Under Liz's serious words, Vivian became a little nervous. This was a little girl from the country who had no idea.
"Really...really?"
"Of course it's true! Don't think that all nobles are like my father. The vast majority of nobles, no matter how powerful you are and how great your contribution to Huodian City is, in their eyes, as long as If you don’t come from a good background and don’t follow the rules of their nobles, they will exclude you!”
Liz may also know that her tone was a bit harsh, so she softened it a little, and then took Vivian's hand.
"But don't worry! The most intelligent and outstanding nobles in the whole Fire Code City are here! With my lady helping you, there will be no problem the day after tomorrow! But the premise of all this is that you have to listen to me! Follow my instructions Do!"
"Vivian, let me ask you, do you want to embarrass yourself on such an important occasion?"
The little girl shook her head violently.
"The first step is to choose a maid who will follow you all the time!"
Now that it's all said and done, it's not just whether Vivian is willing or not, but she must follow the rules of the upper class nobles. For the dinner the day after tomorrow, the little girl has no choice but to accept it.
Fortunately, Vivian glanced at it and found that among the available maids, there was no one she had met this morning. This made the little girl sigh in relief.
However...
I can only say that maybe it is fate.
Just when Vivian was about to try fingering a maid from her middle, a rush of footsteps came from the entrance of the hall.
Immediately afterwards...
"Wait! Wait! Viv...Vivian!"
Alina, who had just hurried from the utility room, forgot to add the word "adult" in her hurry. It can also be said that after what happened in the morning, Vivian was in the heart of the maid. The aura of "big shot" is much less.
"Who are you?"
After hearing the sound, Liz saw the young maid who was a little disheveled and breathing heavily because she had been running all the way and suddenly changed her mind in the middle of the work.
The count's daughter's face suddenly became unsightly, and she frowned.
Now the only reason Liz could endure it and not get angry was because she recognized that this maid was the one she met at Vivian's door when she got up in the morning.
Could it be that they... know each other?
Vivian's performance after that further confirmed Liz's guess.
"You, why are you here too? Could you be..."
"Uh-huh!"
Alina nodded her little head violently at Vivian, who had a troubled expression on her face, and almost wrote the words "Choose me, choose me" on her face.
She really tried her best this time. Once Vivian ignored her, what awaited her next was the eldest lady with a gloomy face next to her, who would scold her absolutely harshly and even fire her outright.
"I'm sorry, this matter... I can't decide on my own, I have to ask Xiao Hei."
Looking at the pleading look of the maid opposite, she didn't even care about the social embarrassment in the morning.
Although they didn't know why it suddenly happened like this, although Vivian wanted to agree, after all, once they chose, the maid would definitely stay with them for a while, so they had to consider whether Xiao Hei was willing.
And when the little girl turned her eyes to the little wolf cub next to her, Liao Zixuan had witnessed the whole dramatic scene, and he almost doubted whether he was there.
For some reason, Liao Zixuan's mind suddenly recalled those four words that Fire God Alice had said to him.
Destiny is established.
hehe.
OK.
Then he wants to see what the so-called "fate" is!
How did this maid named "Alina" become the experimental subject K421, and what role did Vivian play in it?
Liao Zixuan felt that this would be a key point to unlock the clues that were no longer the Earl of Fallen Abyss, but a deeper secret, namely "the whereabouts of Vivian in her previous life".
Opposite her at this moment, in front of Vivian, Alina could still maintain her composure, but when the other party's summoned beast, a little wolf cub covered in pitch black, looked at her, she was just a little maid, suddenly I was a little scared.
Even though this little wolf cub looks cute and a little cute now, what Alina is thinking about is the rumor that a giant wolf is bigger than a carriage and can even eat it in one bite The terrifying monster that drops the monster leader.
no!
No...can't be afraid!
This may be your only chance! Must...must be caught!
Shivering slightly, Alina forced herself to put on a smile that was uglier than crying. She wanted to show her friendly side to the little wolf cub opposite her who could decide her own destiny. Let the other person accept you.
However, it seems to have really worked.
I saw the little wolf cub opposite me. After staring at me for a while, before Alina could react at all, his figure flickered. When she came to her senses again, the maid felt that her body seemed to have sunk a lot.
Alina subconsciously quickly formed a ring with her hands, and then the little wolf cub on her shoulders jumped down and moved a few times in the maid's arms, as if she was looking for a comfortable position, and finally rushed towards Weiwei Ann nodded.
That's what it means.
Well, this wolf climbing frame is not bad.
"Liz, if Xiao Hei likes it so much, then it's up to her."
After Vivian finished speaking to the earl's daughter, the little girl walked up to the maid who had not yet recovered.
She was about to say something when she suddenly realized...
"Well... By the way, speaking of which, I don't know your name yet." Vivian was a little embarrassed.
"Alina..."
"My name is Alina!" the maid replied quickly.
Next, what Alina didn't expect was that the little girl opposite stretched out a hand towards her.
"Well... although we have already met once and you know my name, I think since we are going to spend some time together in the future, it is best to introduce me again."
"Hello Alina, my name is Vivian, nice to meet you."
Looking at Vivian's hand stretched out in front of her and what she said, although everyone would be polite like this out of etiquette, Alina just felt that what the little girl opposite said was sincere.
No, this is nonsense! Being polite is also based on the premise that both parties have equal status. No big shot would be polite to a lowly maid.
Knowing this, Alina looked excited and excited. She had indeed seen the right person!
Carefully putting down the little wolf cub in her arms, the maid stretched out a hand. She took a deep breath and held it tightly.
"Me...Me too! Vivian, I'm so glad to...meet you!"
