Reincarnated Maid is About To Be Captured by All Players

Because we hadn't eaten breakfast, Sigrdrífa quickly displayed hunger status. Carol Cat and Lily had been soaking for a while before we arrived, and I'm not the type to indulge in luxury, so as lunchtime approached, we successively left the hot spring.

I dried my body and returned to the changing room, coming to the bamboo basket where my clothes were placed, preparing to change.

"Huh?"

But I immediately noticed something was wrong.

"Anna?"

Sigrdrífa, who had already put on her undergarments, came over to ask about my situation. I showed her the current state of the bamboo basket with a troubled expression.

"Isn't everything properly here?"

"It's not the same style as my original outfit."

I took out the clothing from the bamboo basket. It was indeed a maid outfit, but definitely not my set. It was more like Nora's low-cut maid outfit, and the skirt was even shorter. This wasn't a working maid outfit at all—it was clearly a bedroom maid outfit.

"Meow meow? Could there be an underwear thief?!"

"That's impossible. No one could break through Nora's defenses. Maybe Nora took Anna's clothes to wash them without permission, then left a different set here. There's no choice—Anna should wear this set for now."

Chris sighed with feigned helplessness, but why were only my clothes taken to be washed? And that set was clean—I had just taken it out this morning.

A low-cut ultra-short skirt maid outfit... I cannot accept this.

"I appreciate your thoughtfulness, but I have spare clothing."

I took out a backup outfit from my storage space. To prepare for clothing damage, I have several identical maid outfits.

Chris's confident smile froze slightly, then she suddenly grabbed her right wrist.

"N-no good! The dark power within me...! I can't control it anymore! Kyaaaah—"

Christiana snatched the maid outfit I had taken out, imbued it with strength enhancement magic, and instantly tore it in half.

"Ehehe~ I'll compensate Anna later, but for now please wear that set..."

"I have another one here." ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ NoveI-Fire.ɴet

"Kyaaaah! I can't control my hands!"

"...I have one more set."

"Power of the bear, hoya!"

After tearing seven maid outfits in a row, I calmly took out the eighth set.

"Huff... Th-this is the last one, right?!"

Chris's chest rose and fell rapidly. After using strength enhancement magic seven times in a row, her arms were probably aching.

"I have many more, and if you give me a few minutes, I can repair all of those completely."

Chris's eyes rolled back and she nearly fainted on the spot.

With no other options, Chris steadied herself against the clothing rack and showed a fierce expression of anger rising from her heart, evil growing from her courage.

"Anna... I learned something from our earlier contest. The more one plays with schemes, the more one discovers the maid's power... Unless one surpasses the maid..."

"Lady Christiana, what exactly are you trying to say?"

"I'm abandoning my dignity! Anna! Since many adventurers see nobles as scum who force themselves on commoner women anyway, if male nobles can force themselves on commoner women, female nobles can too!"

Please at least learn the good parts—don't ignore the merits and adopt the flaws!

"Anna, I've decided to demand a small compensation from you in my capacity as the lord who's sheltering you! During your stay in Ende, I hope you can serve as a maid in Ende Barony for me, Christiana Montefeltro!"

"If it's just temporary work as compensation, I don't mind..."

Rather, I really couldn't bring myself to freeload. After lunch, I had planned to apply to Christiana anyway.

"Then! I'm Anna's temporary employer!"

"Yes, Lady Christiana."

"Hehe... So put on that maid outfit! It's what I prepared for Anna~"

She directly admitted it.

I responded seriously: "Please forgive me, Lady Christiana, but I find it difficult to obey this command..."

"Anna's maid training is still insufficient."

"Uh, please enlighten me?"

Being criticized like this, I couldn't possibly pretend I hadn't heard.

"What is the purpose of a maid outfit's existence?"

"To work better..."

"No no no, that's not it, Anna. You've misunderstood the meaning of a maid outfit's existence..."

Christiana wagged her finger like a master well-versed in this field.

"It's to please the master."

"...Eh?"

"Anna, maid outfits exist to make the master's eyes happy. Maids should make their masters comfortable, right? If you wear terrible clothing that ruins the master's mood, no matter how hard you work, the master will be unhappy and find fault. So maintaining the master's good mood is the top priority."

"Is that... so?"

I dubiously picked up the maid outfit from the bamboo basket and examined it carefully, but having me wear such lewd clothing to please a master felt completely backwards.

Wait, my original outfit wasn't suitable for cleaning either—the game company had beautified it. Could Chris's theory be correct? Should I care more about whether it can improve the master's mood rather than practicality?

Chris's voice whispered persuasively in my ear.

"Think about it—when the master comes home after a busy day, would they rather see a beautiful maid or a dull country girl? When waking up in the morning too, surely the former would better inspire the master's motivation."

Like how workplaces require appropriate formal wear, and schools require uniforms? If school uniforms are explosively ugly, students won't cherish them, but if they're nice, students will maintain them well.

...But really, isn't there something with slightly more coverage?
