Reincarnated Maid is About To Be Captured by All Players

After one night had passed,

"Anna!"

I was preparing to leave Chris's room when I heard Chris calling out from behind me.

I saw Chris on the bed covering her chest with cute-styled bedding, her fragrant shoulders half-exposed, looking at me with tears in her eyes like a pear blossom in the rain.

"...Please don't show such an expression like an abandoned puppy."

I'm clearly the victim here, yet somehow I look like a scoundrel who played with Chris's feelings.

"Wuu... Anna is leaving without saying anything, I'm so sad..."

What else am I supposed to do? I can't possibly be expected to write an essay sharing my thoughts and feelings, can I?

Chris stopped her tears and pouted in dissatisfaction.

"Anna's body was much more honest last night."

"..."

Recalling the scenes from last night, I suddenly had the urge to bolt out the door. I'd rather treat that shameful behavior like garbage to be disposed of.

"Alright Anna, you're now my exclusive maid, so come help me change clothes."

This request I couldn't refuse. Although Chris exhausted me quite thoroughly last night, my recovery ability is quite good, so I'm not so weak-kneed that I can't walk.

I opened Chris's wardrobe, which was filled with exquisite garments. Even if Chris changed outfits every day, it would take about two months to complete one full cycle.

I asked Chris what style she planned to wear today, and Chris said that as long as I picked it, any outfit would be fine.

Today Chris finally allowed me to wear normal underwear, so I'll select some normal young noble casual wear.

I took the selected casual clothes to Chris's side to help her dress. Honestly, I had only ever helped Lily change clothes before, so providing dressing services for a girl my age was a first.

"Has Anna seen the adventurer outfit inside?"

"Adventurer outfit...?"

"The red one."

"Oh, I did see it. Quite a uniquely styled outfit."

"Because it was designed by adventurers, they call it... otherworld academy style? According to them, an otherworldly academy of swords and magic should have that kind of uniform."

"In my humble opinion... if used as a school uniform, the skirt is somewhat short."

In Chris's wardrobe was a female school uniform designed by adventurers, styled toward a noble academy knight-maiden. Human kingdoms do have specialized magical academies that admit female students, but the uniform designs tend toward conservative styles - there's no way they'd have skirts that only cover half the thighs.

"The adventurers claimed that wearing it would bring love knocking at your door… but how could you call it an adventure without beautiful encounters?"

"Do you long for adventure?"

"It's not that I dislike peace... I should say, staying in one place too long makes me bored."

I had heard that Chris's father, because Chris really had no connection to quietude, simply gave the Barony of Ende to Chris to manage, though that was some years ago.

I finished putting on Chris's undergarments, and she smiled at me.

"I originally planned to go adventuring a year ago. After all, staying here, Father will arrange my marriage sooner or later, like the Third Princess who's about to marry far away to the Kingdom of Garuda. It's because Anna is here that I chose to stay. If Anna decides to leave, I have no reason to continue staying in one place either."

"Do you have somewhere you want to go?"

"Midgard, Arcadia, and Atlantis–I want to see them all. And staying in the Kingdom of Michel, I'll probably never have a chance to encounter a dragon."

Dragons.

One of the races players cannot play, like the Phoenix, a race where each individual possesses powerful combat abilities. They have no stable tribal settlements, with sightings recorded in various locations. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ NoveI[F]ire.net

Unless dragons are provoked, they won't actively attack human kingdoms, but they frequently attack other races that intrude into their territory, and they have a hobby of collecting treasures they can't actually use. Dragon lairs often hide treasures wealthy enough to rival nations.

However, dragon slaying is by no means easy, otherwise, dragon slayer epics wouldn't be sung by bards.

Even facing a young dragon requires multiple well-equipped adventurers working together to successfully kill it.

Solo dragon slaying is considered a great achievement that only dragon slayer heroes can accomplish. Throughout Lemoria Continent's history, dragon slayer heroes have been extremely rare, and not even one adventurer has completed the solo dragon slaying achievement.

Currently, the only dragon slayer hero existing on the entire continent is Siegfried of the Church's [Six Wings]. It's said that after slaying a dragon, he gained a steel body impervious to blades and spears, regarded by the human world as a living saint and guardian deity.

However, what truly puzzles me is...

"You want to approach a dragon? I don't recommend risking your life as a joke."

Dragons are different from Phoenix and unicorns. Although they won't actively invade human kingdoms, they’re known to be aggressive. In the adventurer guild's monster manual, dragons are classified at the same danger level as undead species, which proves this point. Due to the dragon's high mobility and their inherent skill [Intimidation] that affects mounts, being targeted by a dragon is, as adventurers say, equivalent to being able to take your hands off the keyboard, though virtual reality games don't actually use keyboards.

Adventurers can revive, but for us to actively seek contact with a dragon would be truly a narrow escape from death.

I completely don't understand why Chris would have such thoughts.

Chris seemed to notice her own slip of tongue and tried to play dumb to get past it.

"Cough cough... I'm just interested in things I haven't seen before..."

I'm gonna try lowering the prices of premium chapters from here on. Happy reading.
