Chapter 106 - 4 - Princess Carry Style
As soon as I answered Duchess Adelheid Von Blutfeld’s question, I hurried out of the luxurious noble bathroom. The expansive warm pool looked like an expensive onsen, spacious and nearly empty.
It made me envious of the social gap I felt. While the maids’ bathrooms had spacious warm pool, they were crowded with other maids, and it was hard to find time for a relaxing bath.
I’d love to experience a relaxing warm bath and soak. If I had a large enough plot of land and a secluded location, I’d definitely build one for myself. Worrying about unnecessary things only makes me unreasonably excited. My preposterous plans for a hot spring or warm pool were quickly dashed away as I walked back to the guest bedroom.
The Mansion’s hallways suddenly felt cold and gripping with envy in my heart for wanting a warm bath.
On a morning this cold, it’s really nice to soak in a warm pool with some warm sake.
Ugh, the memories of my past life came back to haunt me with a pent-up desire.
I’m just a little girl trying to survive as an apprentice maid; there’s no time to fulfill these hidden desires!
I’m still a kid too; there’s no way I’m drinking warm sake at this young age!
Just wait a few more years, Liliana!
You can definitely resist all these temptations!
Plaaakkk...
Plaaakkk...
I slapped my cheeks to focus on the goal at hand. The pent-up desires and longings I felt stemmed from my past life. As a good apprentice maid, I had to be able to suppress those pent-up desires. The more I suppressed them, the better I would be able to resist the sweet old time temptations before my eyes.
It’s just a warm pool used for soaking and relaxing; sitting and closing my eyes is the most beautiful pleasure I can get as a maid!
Yes, a small pleasure like sleeping during the day is enough for me!
As I made up my mind, my footsteps reached the guest bedroom door. Two pairs of night maids guarding the guest bedroom door looked at me with gentle gazes.
"Thinking about something complicated, Liliana?" asked one of the night maids as she stepped beside me, as if guide me into the guest bedroom ahead.
"It’s a bit complicated," I replied, shaking my head and banishing the bad thoughts from my mind.
"I don’t know what you’re thinking, but be prepared for the worst," the night maid who guarded the guest bedroom whispered in a soft tone. She approached me to whisper something more complicated.
"Young Miss Amagi seems to have woken up and... Little bit pouting. I don’t know what happened. Maybe it has something to do with Young Miss Reina, whom you carried out earlier," she continued, whispering, her eyes darting to the keyhole in the guest bedroom.
I caught a glimpse of something moving from the keyhole, something pastel purple and turning black.
Buugghh...
A faint sound like something heavy falling onto the bed was heard.
"It seems Young Miss Amagi wishes the same way. Please take care of that spoiled Young Miss, Liliana."
I took a deep breath after hearing that whisper. The two maids night were thoroughly enjoying every bit of trouble I was about to face. They were enjoying it so much that they stood at a safe distance and invited me into the guest bedroom.
If I had to guess, Master Amagi had woken up and panicked when she saw I wasn’t in the room. Master Reina’s disappearance also caused her panic, but she didn’t dare leave the guest bedroom after seeing the two night maids on duty.
Master Amagi was naturally shy, but I didn’t expect her to be this shy about stepping out from the guest bedroom. She was already used to talking to the other maids on duty around the library, but to face the night maid, it seemed too embarrassing for her.
I grabbed the guest bedroom doorknob and turned it slowly.
Klllaaakkk...
Shrrruuttt!!
As soon as I turned the doorknob until it opened, I heard the sound of the blanket being lifted to cover Master Amagi’s body.
"Pretending to be asleep, huh?" I muttered under my breath as I entered the guest bedroom without closing the door.
My footsteps approached Master Amagi, who was pretending to be sound asleep. Her face looked peaceful, like a princess sleeping carefree, while her nightgown looked messy. Much messier than I’d seen before. My memory wasn’t that weak when it came to remembering things I’d seen before.
Master Amagi did this on purpose, huh?
She was truly clever and cunning in forcing me to tease her while she was pretending to sleep. She must have seen how I woke Master Reina with such softness that she wanted to feel it too.
"Good morning, Master Amagi..."
"It’s already morning..."
"You’ll be late for the intensive training that Marchioness Shinano Vii Lichtberg and Duchess Adelheid Von Blutfeld have planned..."
I tried to wake Master Amagi with a soft tone that sounded like an ASMR whisper in her ear.
At this close distance, I could see her eyelids twitching. This whisper in her ear must have tickled her.
My hands quickly pulled back the thick blanket that covered her upper body, the part of her nightgown that wasn’t covered by the blanket was full of sweat. Master Amagi deliberately loosened the straps of her nightgown, exposing the sweaty nape of her neck.
This kind of teasing would certainly work on her personal butler, but unfortunately, it didn’t appeal to me, who was already immune to her spoiled behavior. Whether it was Master Reina or Master Amagi, they both viewed me as someone they loved.
I don’t mind the affection and love they show; it’s just... it feels embarrassing to me.
"Uuhhh..." Master Amagi pretended to have difficulty waking up from her sleep; she let out a cute moaning sound and further invited my mischief to do something to her.
"Please wake up, Master Amagi. You don’t want to be late for today’s intensive training, do you?"
Master Amagi’s eyelids opened slowly; she glanced at me as if she wanted to say something, but closed her eyes again.
Is that what they call five more minutes to longer sleep?
Or did she say... do something that would wake me up?
I don’t know which one is true, but I already know her intention to tease me by pretending to be asleep.
"Master Amagi, the Marchioness and Duchess are enjoying the warm water this morning..."
"If you don’t hurry up to take a shower with them, you’ll be take a bath in cold water, you know..."
I was forced to use this threat to wake Master Amagi up. Unlike Master Reina, who invited me to play a prank on her, Master Amagi invited me to do something that would wake her up in embarrassment.
"Uuuhhh..." Master Amagi was still moaning cutely; she also peeked through her twitching eyelids.
She seemed to be waiting for me to do something to her.
The two night maids on guard outside peeked into the guest bedroom without hiding their intentions.
Gllaaarreee...
Gllaarrreee...
They were expecting me to take a bold step in taking care of the spoiled young miss of a noble family in the morning. Since things had already come to this, I had no choice but to improvise.
It might be embarrassing for Master Amagi, but I’ll do it so she won’t be late enjoying the warm pool.
I pulled back the blanket, exposing her sweaty body. Without waking her, I tried to hold her in my arms, mimicking the princess carry style.
"E-Eekk!! Huuee??" Master Amagi was surprised by my actions; it even invited whistles from the two night maids who were staring at me.
"L-Liliana? W-What are you doing?" Master Amagi asked in a surprised voice.
I just smiled and moved to carry her in my arms, like a princess who was being taken away to be kidnapped.
"Carrying my spoiled Master in the morning to take a warm bath," I said in response.
"T-There’s no need to use such embarrassing methods!" said Master Amagi in an enthusiastic tone.
"It’s not embarrassing."
"This is embarrassing for me!!" Master Amagi grumbled, causing laughter from the two night maids.
I ignored it and walked out, carrying Master Amagi in both arms. Thinking back, it was indeed as embarrassing as Master Amagi had said. But it was too late to change my carrying style.
My footsteps walked through the hallways of the Main Mansion, already bustling with other maids preparing to replace the night maid. One of them was my mother, who wanted to greet me, but stopped when she saw Master Amagi in my arms.
Carrying princess-style had attracted this much attention, huh?
Tap...
Tap...
Quickening my footsteps towards the noble bathroom, I met other maids who were about to go inside.
"E-Excuse me... we’re coming in too!" I said as I slipped into the noblewoman’s bathroom before it closed.
Baaam!!
Whether it was my growing muscles or my physical abilities that had been developed through intensive training, I carried Master Amagi without tiring. She was as light as a feather in my arms.
Master Amagi tucked her face between my chest, trying to hide her embarrassed face after being carried in the most embarrassing way ever.
Gllaarreee...
Gllaarreee...
Besides holding back the embarrassment of carrying Master Amagi like a princess, I suddenly felt a sharp gaze trying to pierce my chest.
Cttiinngg!!
Cttiinngg!!
It even triggered my danger detection abilities to actively fill my head.
"Oh my, what am I seeing? Liliana is uniquely carrying Amagi, isn’t she?" said Duchess Adelheid Von Blutfeld with a mysterious smile.
"L-Liliana... W-What have you done? W-Why are you carrying Amagi in embarrassing way?" said Master Reina, who, for some reason, was staring at me with angry eyes.
Under the pressure of Master Reina’s glare, I slowly lowered Master Amagi while enjoying her blushing face.
