Episode 28

This guy is really fucking crazy.

“I’ve always only imagined it.”

Why exactly are you imagining such things?

After Yurta yesterday, now it’s Rihardt. What kind of karma did I accumulate in my past life…?

“I’ve been searching everywhere for the maid, and to meet like this – we must be destined.”

“…Wouldn’t it be more like an ill-fated relationship?”

“It’s destiny.”

Maybe because I met Yurta, I didn’t want to continue talking with someone who wouldn’t listen to reason.

But wait, weren’t you trying to kill me?

“…Why were you looking for me?”

To kill me?

I thought I had treated him with the best care possible.

I changed his dog bowl to a clean white plate, shared my desserts with him, and even let him enjoy the fun potato peeling.

Suddenly thinking of those past days made me feel wronged.

“Are you going to kill me?”

Since the situation had reached such a dead end, there seemed to be no way to escape.

I squeezed my eyes shut.

“Kill you? Me, kill the maid?”

“…Then why were you looking for me?”

“Because it’s destiny.”

Someone please just punch that mouth of his.

I glared with resentful eyes at that mouth spouting nonsense.

“If you look at me with such burning eyes, my blood rushes.”

“…Your blood rushes?”

“Down below, I mean.”

Ah, really fucking crazy.

I don’t know how many times I’ve repeated these words today.

“I came to take the maid with me. Let’s go together, maid.”

“If I have a choice, I’d like to refuse…”

“Unfortunately, you don’t have a choice.”

Then this is kidnapping!

Being possessed into a BL novel was already unfair enough to kill me, and now I’m even being kidnapped.

I suddenly thought of Emily who had abandoned me in this place.

“Save me, Emily…”

I miss you, Emily. Where on earth did you go?

“Who is Emily?”

When I muttered absentmindedly, Rihardt frowned and asked.

“Someone I share the potatoes you gave me with.”

“Then are you saying you shared me now?”

“…What would I share?”

What kind of nonsense is this?

The more I talked, the more my head seemed to get tangled up.

“How disappointing.”

“…”

He laughed well seeing my crumpled expression. Really that…

“Well then, maid, shall we go?”

“…”

“I’d like to let the maid depart when she wants, but unfortunately it’s hard to delay time.”

Despite trying to kidnap me, he politely extended his hand like some knight on a white horse.

His silver hair, sparkling like scattered transparent glass powder under the sunlight, swayed in the breeze.

Looking at just this scene, he really was like a knight on a white horse…

I sighed again.

“What happens if I don’t take this hand?”

The moment I take it, Arzen will definitely kill me.

Now I couldn’t even cry anymore. I held back the bitter laugh trying to burst out and glared at Rihardt.

I thought about screaming, but didn’t since I knew it would be useless.

“Maid, what do you think is the reason I’m being polite to you?”

“…”

Follow me while I’m asking nicely?

“The maid is someone I need.”

Someone useful, I suppose.

Need and usefulness were the same yet distinctly different words in feeling.

“Although the maid didn’t help with my escape, I’ll give you wealth and glory.”

“…How magnanimous of you.”

There really was no way out.

I reluctantly took Rihardt’s hand.

I thought it might be better to escape together and look for a chance to flee.

But then.

A long shadow fell in front of Rihardt and me who were facing the sunlight directly.

I looked up as if bewitched and met blood-red eyes.

Holding a silver sword glinting in the sunlight, the man smiled with a twisted face.

“Are you running away with another man right in front of me, sister?”

The moment I met those blood-red eyes, I stared blankly at them as if being sucked in.

Why is he here…?

I had heard from Emily that one of the Herthas sons was coming, but I felt uncomfortable not knowing I’d encounter him like this.

And I experienced a terrible feeling.

I had hoped it would be Dillen Herthas, the lesser evil, but it had to be the sub obsessive character.

“An intruder has appeared between us, maid.”

What kind of relationship are we…?

I remember we were in a food-giving relationship, weren’t we over?

“I heard the monster of Evantes escaped, and here you are. The Count would be pleased if I caught you and brought you to him right away.”

Saying that, the sharp tip of Yurta’s sword was pointing at Rihardt’s neck. As if he’d cut it off immediately.

“Come over here, sister.”

“Sister?”

Rihardt looked at me as if asking what that meant, and I avoided Yurta’s gaze while answering.

“Y-Young master must have been day drinking again!”

“Aha.”

Rihardt nodded as if he understood, but his expression was somehow sulky.

“But maid, what do you mean by ‘again’?”

Why are you reacting to strange parts ‘again’?

“It sounds like you knew each other before. I’m jealous.”

“Don’t say things you don’t mean.”

I held my throbbing head. Someone please take these guys away.

“Sister, you look happy with that monster. You’ve been associating with lowly things while I was away.”

This one’s mouth was no joke either.

Rihardt and Yurta glared at each other as if they’d kill each other, like beasts meeting their natural enemy.

Seeing that made me desperately miss Emily.

What is this, getting caught in a fight between whales?

Unfortunately, there was no one to protect the shrimp. Honestly, if I were in their position and there was a shrimp, I’d probably gulp it down in one bite too.

Anyway, what mattered wasn’t that—given the situation, I had to protect my own body myself.

I took advantage of their standoff to survey my surroundings.

I looked around for anything that could serve as a weapon, and fortunately spotted a large piece of wood that had fallen under a tree.

I stealthily approached it.

“Sister?”

“Miss Maid?”

Both of them turned to look at me in unison as I picked up the piece of wood and aimed it at them.

“Both of you, don’t come any closer.”

The piece of wood was quite heavy and my arms were trembling, but I tried to act tough.

“What happens if we do approach, Miss Maid?”

“It seems you haven’t grasped the severity of the situation yet.”

I retorted to Rihardt as fiercely as possible.

“If you come closer, I’ll immediately smash your head with this.”

How’s that, scary right?

I made a terrifying expression to intimidate them, but unfortunately, my opponents were madmen.

Their gazes toward me became peculiar. It was exactly the look that said, ‘What is that insignificant thing?’

Like looking at a pitiful rabbit… Damn it.

“That’s right, Sister. Hold it properly. If that monster comes over, swing it right away.”

“You’re no exception either.”

At that, Yurta made a disappointed expression. As if he was actually disappointed.

I needed to quickly bring this situation to an end.

Otherwise, my heart wouldn’t survive.

I made the fiercest expression I could muster and stared at Rihardt.

“Count Evantes will be coming with his knights soon.”

Probably…?

Actually, I wasn’t certain either.

“So if you’re planning to escape, you’d better not think about taking me with you. Unless you want to be caged again while trying to catch one rabbit.”

I drew a clear line like that.

Of course, since he wasn’t wearing magic restraints now, I wondered if subduing him would even be possible…

“Miss Maid, you’re considerably underestimating me.”

At those ominous words, I raised my eyebrows as pure white energy swirled around Rihardt.

Yurta frowned at this and pointed his sword tip toward Rihardt.

‘Don’t tell me they’re going to have a go at it right here and now?’

I slowly backed away. Wouldn’t the best method be to sneak away while these two fought?

As I glanced back like that.

“Sister!”

Yurta shouted toward me in an urgent voice.

Startled, I turned to look ahead and saw that Rihardt had somehow approached close to me.

I hastily stepped back, but it was useless.

“Caught you.”

Rihardt’s lips curved up pleasantly.

And at that moment, something unbelievable and amazing happened.
