Reincarnated Maid is About To Be Captured by All Players

Volume 2 Chapter 33



“Lord Ivanhe…”

Sir Ivanhe of Smiley, wielding the Golden Apple, broke out alone. The arcane missiles, which were initially part of the arrow rain, all turned towards Ivanhe.

Thanks to Ivanhe’s fearless sacrifice, we got more than just a moment to breathe. He tore open a gap in the Black Hawk Mercenary Group’s formation. Due to the taunt effect, their adventurers were unconsciously following him, and a path to escape unexpectedly opened up for us.

“Let’s go!”

Trafalgar made a quick decision, urging Higdelytha to get Lily onto the horse. We didn’t know how long Ivanhe could hold out, and missing this opportunity meant there might not be another.

Despite knowing Ivanhe, as an adventurer, could resurrect after death, I couldn’t help but worry about his selfless act.

The Black Hawk Mercenary Group was quick to adapt. The rest of their adventurers, likely informed via private messages about the change upfront, abandoned the now meaningless encirclement and began chasing us directly. Even though Ivanhe had drawn away many of their best riders, the Group still had plenty of manpower.

We barely broke out of the encirclement, but the pursuing adventurers were hot on our trail. Trafalgar’s horse was enduring but burdened with Higdelytha and Lily, it couldn’t speed up enough to shake off the pursuers.

I was holding Carol Cat, making it inconvenient to use my chains for attack… No choice then!

I lowered my center of gravity slightly and touched the ground with the palm of my hand.

“Earth Bind!”

The chains sprouted like wild grass at the feet of the adventurers, firmly binding the galloping hooves. The adventurers, caught off guard, were all thrown off their horses.

“This isn’t a normal use for chains…”

Higdelytha commented as she rode.

Unfortunately, the situation didn’t last long. The Black Hawk Mercenary Group still had many people, and another group of adventurers appeared ahead of us.

Their emblem was unmistakable – a displayed black eagle, the mark of the Black Hawk Mercenary Group. But at the same time, another group of adventurers appeared on the flank, their emblem…

A maid’s headband?

Where had I seen that before?

“Anna-chan~”

“Eh…”

Leading the adventurers was Hornheim, whom I hadn’t seen in a while.

“Anna-chan, looks like we came just in time.”

Hornheim pushed up his glasses. Seeing familiar faces come to our aid warmed my heart.

【Anastasia’s fondness for “Anna’s Support Group,” +1】

“The fondness is back?”

“Why did Anna-chan reduce our fondness?”

My mood, initially moved, dissipated at the reminder of that reason.

“Hmph… I found out about those doujinshi. Lewd.”

“Wha—”

【Morale -100%】

“Everyone! Why are you all petrified?”

Morale, as I recall, is a value used in team battles to boost team attributes; positive values enhance, negative values reduce.

To deduct it all at once…

“Wait, why was only 1 fondness point deducted?”

Hornheim suddenly realized something was off.

“Strange, right?”

“How to put it… We can’t complain about negative values…”

“Because I don’t hate you that much…”

Fondness ratings are subjective assessments, and though I can’t accurately quantify them, the game system’s deduction should be correct.

Despite this being a straightforward response, the members of Anna’s Support Group miraculously revived upon hearing it.

【Morale +100%】

Some even burst into tears on the spot.

“Anna-chan… truly an angel…!”

“Time to quit… Ever since joining Anna’s Support Group, the old man at the supermarket keeps asking why I buy so much Nutrient Express…”

I didn’t fully understand what was happening, but fortunately, morale seemed to have been restored.

“Anna’s Support Group… Golden Dawn really fell from grace, didn’t it?”

The Black Hawk Mercenary Group surrounded us, and one of their leading adventurers, known for his exquisite equipment and some fame, pitied us. Hornheim pushed up his glasses, recognizing him immediately.

“It’s you, Gruman.”

“Now, Anna’s Support Group is no match for us. Hornheim, you know it. As I know, about 80% of your members are in jail, and the only free officer is you. Even your leader is locked up in the Pontiff’s country. You think you can stand against the Black Hawk Mercenary Group?”

“Correction, it’s 76.18% in jail, many have already been released.”

“Can’t you round up, you nitpicker… We take people’s money to eliminate their disasters, but we’re not barbarians who only know how to fight. Just hand over Amalilyce, and we guarantee not to harm Anastasia.”

Faced with Gruman’s proposal

, Hornheim continued to adjust his glasses in a seemingly profound manner, then suddenly changed the topic.

“Speaking of which, did you enjoy the Qixi Festival’s treasure box event?”

“Of course, your Anna’s Support Group has the highest single rate, with no female players willing to approach you. You must be envious of us, right?”

“I’ll tell you a secret, Gruman,” Hornheim said seriously. “More than 80% of our members in Anna’s Support Group… are into other people’s wives. After this war, your girlfriends will have no peace!”

“Huh?”

【Morale -20%】

“Their morale dropped! Attack now!”

“How despicable?! Keep steady, everyone!”

I was grateful to Hornheim and his group for holding back the Black Hawk Mercenary Group, but with my name on Anna’s Support Group, I wondered if there was any chance left to salvage its reputation…
