Reincarnated Maid is About To Be Captured by All Players

After a night passed.

“Anna!”

As I was about to leave Chris’s boudoir, I heard her call from behind.

There she was, on the bed, modestly covered with a cute-style duvet, her tender shoulders partially exposed, gazing at me with a sorrowful expression.

“…Please don’t look at me with such a forsaken puppy expression.”

The victim here is clearly me, yet it seems as if I am the one who toyed with Chris’s feelings.

“Sob… Anna, you left without saying anything. I’m so heartbroken…”

What else could I do? It’s not like I should deliver a speech or share my thoughts and feelings in an essay.

Chris stopped crying and pouted, dissatisfied.

“I preferred Anna’s body last night, it was more honest.”

“…”

Thinking back to last night’s events, I felt an urge to flee, to discard those shameful memories like trash.

“Come on, Anna, you’re now my personal maid. Help me get dressed.”

I couldn’t refuse her request. Despite the ordeal Chris put me through last night, my recovery ability was quite good, so at least my legs weren’t weak.

I opened Chris’s wardrobe, filled with exquisite clothes. Even if Chris wore a different outfit every day, it would take over two months to go through them all.

I asked Chris what she wanted to wear today. She said anything I picked would be fine.

Today, Chris finally allowed me to wear normal underwear. Since that was the case, I decided to select some normal young noble’s casual wear.

I picked out the casual wear and approached Chris to help her dress. Honestly, I had only ever helped Lily get dressed before. Dressing a girl of my age was a new experience for me.

“Anna, did you see the adventure outfit inside?”

“Adventure outfit…?”

“The red one.”

“Oh, I did see it. It’s quite a unique set of clothes.”

“It’s designed by adventurers. They call it… ‘Isekai Academy Style’? According to them, that’s what one should wear in a sword and magic world academy.”

“In my humble opinion… if it’s meant for a school uniform, the skirt is a bit short.”

Among Chris’s clothes, there was a set of female school uniforms designed by adventurers, styled like a noble academy’s princess knight. The human kingdoms do have magical academies for girls, but their uniforms are more conservative and wouldn’t feature a skirt that only covers half the thigh.

“Adventurers claim that wearing it invites romantic encounters. What’s an adventure without beautiful encounters?”

“Do you long for adventure?”

“It’s not that I dislike peace… but I get bored if I stay in one place too long.”

I had heard that Chris’s father, due to her restless nature, had handed over the management of Baron End’s territory to her, but that was some years ago.

I finished dressing Chris in her underwear, and she smiled at me.

“I had planned to go on an adventure a year ago. After all, if I stayed, my father would eventually arrange my marriage, like the third princess who is about to marry into the Garulo Kingdom. It’s because of Anna that I chose to stay. If Anna decides to leave, I would have no reason to stay here either.”

“Do you have a place in mind?”

“Midgard, Arcadia, and Atlantis. I want to see them all. Plus, staying in the Kingdom of Mikel, I’ll probably never encounter a dragon kind.”

—Dragon kind.

A race not playable by players, like the Phoenix, each individual possessing immense combat power. They have no stable settlements; sightings of dragon kind are reported everywhere.

Unless provoked, they don’t attack human kingdoms, but they often attack intruders in their territories. They also have a penchant for collecting treasures they don’t need, with dragon caves often hiding fortunes.

However, slaying a dragon is no easy feat. If it were, the epics of dragon-slaying heroes wouldn’t be so revered by bards.

Even facing a young dragon requires a team of well-equipped adventurers to kill.

Solo dragon slaying is considered a feat only achievable by dragon-slaying heroes. There have been very few such heroes in Limoria’s history, and no adventurer has ever accomplished a solo dragon slaying.

Currently, the only living dragon-slaying hero on the continent is Siegfried of the Church’s “Six Feathers,” who is said to have gained an invulnerable body after slaying a dragon, revered as a living saint and guardian by the human world.

But what really puzzled me was…

“You want to approach dragon kind? I don’t recommend joking with your life.”

Unlike Phoenixes or unicorns, dragons are highly aggressive. The adventurers’ guild monster manual classifies them as dangerous, on par with undead. Due to their mobility and innate skills to intimidate mounts, being targeted by a dragon means almost certain death for adventurers.

Adventurers can be resurrected,

but us actively seeking out dragons is akin to courting death.

I couldn’t understand why Chris would have such a thought.

Chris seemed to realize her slip and played dumb to get past it.

“Cough cough… I’m just interested in things I’ve never seen before…”
