Damn, what kind of background does Sylvia has?
Her family even has a real maid.
I mean, my family is pretty well-off, and we pay someone to clean the house, but she only works part-time. She is definitively not a maid.
Sylvia's family is definitively on another level.
She is even called ‘Young Miss’. Is her family some kind of nobility?
At that moment, the beautiful maid looked at Ley and me.
“You must be the young miss’s friends. Thank you for taking care of her.”
Ley and I replied flustered.
“T-That, yeah, we are Sylvia’s friends.”
“N-Nice to meet you.”
The maid smiled. Her smile was so beautiful that I was almost blinded.
It was the most gentle smile I had seen in my life. I could feel my cheeks becoming redder involuntarily.
“M-Mom, stop this!” Sylvia suddenly shouted with a red face. “You are embarrassing me!”
“Mm? Why should you be embarrassed? I’m just greeting your friends.”
“J-Just come with me.” Sylvia grabbed the maid’s hand and pulled her towards the limo. “S-See you later, Ley, Jane.”
Ley and I nodded with a dazed expression. We were still dazed even after the limo went away.
“… Did Sylvia call her mom?” I finally asked after the car was no longer visible.
Ley nodded with a strange expression.
“Sylvia’s family seems… a bit peculiar, don’t you think?”
“Y-Yeah.” I nodded dazedly. I still don’t understand what happened.
It looks like Sylvia’s family is more… interesting than I expected.
[It is not just interesting.] The demon in my mind suddenly spoke up. [Boy, that woman was an Irregular too.]
My body froze.
… Are you sure?
[I am.]
I immediately became tense.
Damn you, demon. Didn’t you tell me that becoming an Irregular was super hard? Why did I meet two today?
The demon did not reply.
I breathed hard to calm down and moved my thoughts quickly.
‘Did she discover you?’
[She didn’t. She should have noticed the peculiarity in you, but unlike the Headmistress, she did not bother to find out the reason.]
I sighed in relief, but in the next second, I became nervous again.
I was reminded that the Headmistress had found out about the demon in my mind. Who knows what she could do?
Even though the demon told me to not worry, I was still nervous.
“Brother, are you alright?” Ley suddenly asked when she noticed that my expression was off.
I forced out a smile and nodded.
“Don’t worry, I just remembered something.”
“Is it so?” Ley was doubtful, but she did not press on.
Just like that, we went back home, while I was still worried about the fact that the headmistress had discovered the demon.
But even after one week passed, nothing happened.
…
At the same time, inside the limousine.
The brown-haired maid was looking at Sylvia with a small smile.
“So he is the boy, huh.”
Sylvia nodded. “He is interesting, right? I can feel that there is something special about him.”
“There is. I didn’t bother to investigate it, though. I don’t want to violate his privacy. Well, If young miss wants to know, I can find out at any time.”
“Forget it. That is not fun. Also, mom, can you please stop calling me young miss? It gives me the creeps.”
The maid giggled.
“Sorry, young miss. As the family’s servant, I can’t do something like that.”
Sylvia snorted.
“I still don’t understand why you like to pretend to be a maid so much.”
“I’m not pretending, I’m a maid.”
“Yeah, yeah. By the way, mom,” Sylvia suddenly narrowed her eyes. “When did mom Evelyn become the Headmistress?”
The maid smiled bitterly. “About that, some of us were worried about you coming to Sanctuary’s First, so Evelyn offered herself to become the Headmistress and watch over you.”
“What am I? A kid? And, there is no way that something can happen to me. Who in this world can hurt me?”
“Well, that is not what we are worried about.” The maid put on a wry smile.
Sylvia furrowed her brows before an expression of realization appeared on her face.
“Could it be…?”
The maid sighed and nodded. “You showed interest in a young man, so it’s normal for us to be worried. In fact, some of us suggested separating you forcibly from that child.”
Sylvia’s expression became dark.
“Are you serious?”
The maid nodded.
“Bullshit! They are going too far! I’m not even in love with him. I’m just a bit curious about his peculiarity!”
“Watch your language, young miss.” The maid scolded gently. “Don’t worry, I persuaded them not to interfere. It’s not a problem even if you are in love with him, I will make sure to shut them up.”
“Mom, I told you I’m not in love with him!”
“Right, you are just curious. But young miss, curiosity is the first step towards love, you know.”
Sylvia snorted.
There was no way she could fall in love with him.
He was a bit handsome, true. But he was not strong enough, smart enough, or capable enough.
The man she was going to fall in love with needed to be at the level of her father at the very least.
“Then you are going to be single your entire life.”
“Mom, stop reading my thoughts!”
“I didn’t. Okay, just a bit… So you think he is handsome, huh.”
“Mom!”
“Sorry, I will stop.” The maid giggled and looked at Sylvia with a gentle gaze.
Actually, she understood the thoughts of the others. She knew why they didn’t like the idea of Sylvia getting close to a normal human.
However, she thought that Sylvia had the right to live her life the way she wanted. Anyway, there was virtually nothing in the universe that her family could not resolve.
Plus, even if the boy hurt her, it did not matter. It was going to be a meaningful experience for Sylvia anyway.
And the maid was not averse to torturing the boy if that happened.
