Reincarnated Maid is About To Be Captured by All Players

When Nora rescued us and brought us to Ende Castle, it was already dawn.

Although I recover quickly, I rested until almost noon to fully recuperate.

Lily… wasn’t by my side. She went to bed earlier, so it’s normal for her to wake up earlier too.

After washing up and getting dressed, I was ready to face the new day with a calm mindset.

Leaving my room, I saw a maid cleaning in the hallway. I had heard that all of Chris’s servants were young and pretty girls, including Nora, the head maid who should be the oldest among them, yet she was still a girl in the prime of her youth.

“Good morning.”

“Good morning, Miss Anna,” the young maid responded cheerfully.

“I’ll tidy up the room. Please head to the hot spring in the backyard. Your companions are already there.”

A hot spring…

I really needed a good bath, having had no time for it in the last few days.

Another door opened, and Higdelytha came out stretching.

“Good morning, Lifa.”

“Morning… Anna… Eh? Where’s Lily?”

“Lily’s at the hot spring.”

Mentioning the hot spring, Higdelytha perked up considerably.

“Let’s join them, Anna… um, it should be fine for you.”

Fine for me?

Ah… she means because of my special period…

I learned, thanks to becoming a girl, that it’s not advisable for women to use a hot spring during their menstrual cycle – knowledge I probably would never have needed otherwise. But the game developers, striving for realism, also eliminated many things, including gynecological issues.

Since Higdelytha thought it was okay, it must be common knowledge in Limoria Continent.

We walked side by side, with lively and cute maids guiding us on the way, and one who had finished her chores even enthusiastically led us to the hot spring in the backyard.

Ende Castle originally didn’t have a hot spring; it was a renovation by Chris’s grandfather’s generation. Ende wasn’t wealthy, spared from war, and a little crowding in the training grounds was a small price to pay.

The castle was divided into two parts: the outer area for guards to train and rest, and the inner area for Chris and her maids’ private space, similar in layout to a harem and the imperial guards.

The maid who brought us to the backyard left us, and Head Maid Nora stood at the entrance.

“Been waiting for a while, you two. Please enter the hot spring here, and join us for lunch in the living room after.”

“Thank you.”

Higdelytha dashed in eagerly, and as I passed Nora, I asked tentatively.

“Aren’t you joining us?”

Usually, maids don’t bathe with their mistresses, but I thought Nora would serve Chris during her bath.

“…I’d rather not.”

Nora responded after a pause, expressionless.

There might be a reason, but it would be impolite to pry.

I nodded slightly in response, then closed the door to the backyard.

Lifa… Eh? She moved quickly?

In the brief time I spoke with Nora, Higdelytha had disappeared.

The front room was the changing room. Despite the medieval setting, the male and female signs were clear.

I should go to the female side now…

“Lifa? I’m coming in, okay?”

I pushed open the slightly ajar female changing room door, but it was empty.

Higdelytha’s clothes were in a basket. Elves love cleanliness, and she would have taken a bath earlier if not for our exhaustion yesterday.

The girl’s changing room… um…

Feeling a bit shy, perhaps because it’s usually used by young girls, the room was filled with a sweet fragrance.

There were four baskets for clothes, belonging to Higdelytha, Lily, Carole Cat, and presumably Chris.

No maids to assist, which is strange but not unheard of among nobles who prefer privacy. I wouldn’t comment on that.

I neatly placed my maid uniform and underwear in a basket, wrapped a towel around myself, and bravely pushed open the door to the hot spring.

The hot spring was an open-air bath below the walls. I immediately saw Higdelytha, blissfully soaking in the water, warming my heart.

Barefoot on the tiles, I suddenly sensed danger.

With a “snap,” I caught Chris’s mischievous wrist.

“Lady Chris…”

“Hehehe… Anna~~~”

For the first time, I felt genuine fear towards a woman other than my mistress.

Chris’s wine-red eyes had spiraled, her breathing heavy. If she said something like “Come on, beauty~,” it would be no different than Zhu Bajie capturing a wife… No, I’m truly sorry to compare Lady Chris to Zhu Bajie.

“Let’s get to know each other… more intimately, more

intensely, Anna~”

“Please, don’t do this…”

This might be the first chastity crisis I’ve faced since becoming a girl.
