"If it were up to my princess, she'd know in a flash whether he's a furniture snatcher or not. Take it as a sign of trust.

　The maid, who called herself Corona, said, jabbing the air for some reason.

So, I see. ......
I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that. You don't need to be respectful to a younger maid. The maid came over here to take care of you.
"Oh, I see. I'll do it then.

　I was about fifteen or six years old.
　Futa was overwhelmed by Corona as she spread out the wrapping cloth she was carrying on her back on the carpet.

　There was no doubt that Lilac was under more pressure than him, but what was it? The girl's free spirit was a poison to the serious Futa.

"Did the princess say anything to you?
"What do you mean?
"That I should wait in a corner of the room, shivering, until the princess returned.
No, she didn't. ...... What kind of princess is that, ......?
You've got a weak sense of humor. If you have not been told anything, you can start by doing something about your sad appearance.

　I'm not sure what to do.

　Futa was bewildered as he could not keep up with her tension.

　The age difference between them was several years.
　He felt uncomfortable, partly because he was not a good conversationalist and partly because he felt bad about being put on the spot.

　Even though I was ordered by the princess, I thought it would be very painful for a girl of my age to take care of a vagrant.

"...... What can I do for you?
You're not taller than two merets. That's huge. Then take this and this and go take a shower. I'll also give you a shaver and nail clippers, so you can come back to this room as the best looking man you can think of.

　The maid didn't seem to notice that Futa was taking care of everything.

　It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

What, this isn't the princess's shower room?
It's risky for Futa-sama to wander around the castle in his current attire to take a shower. Go ahead. The maids can help you wash up if you want.
All right, all right, I'm in. Alone.
I see. Too bad. I like maids a lot, though. They make rusty knives shine.
I don't know what they'd do to me if they came in with that mentality. ......

　He could shave your whole body and make it shine.

　After entering the shower room, Futa took off his clothes and began to take a shower.

　The shower room was spacious and luxurious, with a curtain separating the changing room from the bathtub.

　There was a buzzing sound and the water flowed.

　Looking back on my past life, I can't help but feel that it was a waste of time.

　The sensation of rinsing off my body after a long time was pleasant, and combined with the guilt of being allowed to use the princess's shower room, I had very mixed feelings.

　A moment later, the curtain opened with a bang.

I'm going to throw away the clothes I took off.
"What a surprise!　I'm in the shower!
I know, but... Are you one of those people who have to be silent in the shower?
No, no. That's enough. You can throw it away on ...... if you want. Okay.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Oh, but wait a minute.
Hmm?

　Corona turns around to close the curtains.

I'll get rid of it. I'll just throw it away. It smells really bad, if you don't mind me saying.
It's fine. You're the customer and the maid is the maid. Also, I don't mind this kind of disgusting stuff, it makes me feel strange.

　Corona said with a little blush.

"What?
"I'm just kidding. What are you embarrassed about?

　I'm not sure if I've ever been teased by a girl before.
　He didn't have the slightest tolerance for being teased by a girl.

"...... I'm kidding, right?
I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not.　I'm not sure what to say.

　The curtains closed behind me.

　You'll be able to find a lot more information on the web.

　Just as I was thinking, "You don't know how careful I am.

　Just as I thought this, the curtain opened again.

　Corona suddenly appeared and said with a friendly and carefree smile.

You can get along with maids better with that kind of tension!



　As soon as he said that, the curtain closed.

　With only the sound of water echoing in the shower, Futa let out another sigh.

　Instead of caring for her, she was being cared for.


　Although she was a maid with strong habits, he felt he could get along with her quite well.














　I shaved, trimmed my nails, and washed off the dirt.
　After cleaning his entire body, he put on the elegant pants and jacket she had given him, and left the shower room.

"Ooh, subtle beauty.

　Corona clapped her hands.

"Don't say subtle.

　So Futa made a comment.

　And then Corona rolled her eyes a little and gave him a big smile.

I like it!　I'm having a lot of fun, and I think Corona is starting to like you. You've got a new look. You'll look even better when you call yourself the New Futa!
"Oh no, you look like an idiot.

　Newfuta.
　It looked even more stupid when I used a stretching rod.

"Well, I'll just do something about your shaggy head that looks like a worn-out broom. Sit down.

　He beckoned me to sit down on a chair that was placed on top of the furoshiki.
　It seems that she had prepared for a haircut while Futa was taking a bath.

　I did as I was told and sat down, and a haircut cloth was put on top of me.

What do you want to do today?　Do you want to match your maid?
I'm not a fan of twin drills. ....... I don't want to embarrass the princess.
"Oops, you're a pro at making precautionary statements, aren't you?　If the princess is quoted, the maid has no choice but to take it seriously.

　I'm not sure what to do, but I'm sure it's a good idea.

I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not.

　I'm not sure what you mean.
　For a moment, Futa tilted his head, unsure of what she was talking about.

You can't move your head.　I'm not going to say what. ...... You see, Futa-sama, you came here because the princess asked you to talk to her and she liked you, right?

　When she said that, I realized.
　Lilac has been keeping the fact that they crossed swords a secret from her as well.

It's not like she's going to say anything clever like a princess, right?　It's not like he's a counselor of the 'healer' type. Speaking of which, what's your profession, Futa-sama?

　To her, it was probably just small talk.
　For Futa, it was just that she didn't like to be asked about her occupation.

　I don't know how this girl, who I'm starting to get to know a little, will react.

　However, since Lilac and the girl have a close relationship, it will come out sooner or later.

　Futa answered honestly.

I'm 'unemployed'."

　An object of exclusion, the bottom of the human race.

　In a world where it is normal for people to take it that way, Lilac and Corona are not normal.

"Hmm. I don't get it then. Don't you have a clue? A clue?
Hint?
I don't see anything the princess would like. "It's not her occupation, it's not her looks, then maybe her personality is just right for you?

　It took a lot of courage to say that.

　I'm not sure how I'm going to be treated. Corona did not mind at all.

What's wrong?　What's wrong with you? You look like a pigeon popping a spiral magic bullet.
"There's no trace of pigeon poppers, that's ....... No, you don't think that an unemployed person should be allowed to be a guest of the princess, do you?
"No, I don't.
You don't?
No, I don't.

　Tick, tick, tick, tick.

The maids don't know or care what Futa-sama thinks about his "profession" or what kind of life he has actually led.

　The maids don't know or care about what the maids think about their "profession" or how they actually lived their lives," said Corona, still in the same free-spirited mood as before.

I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm not the only one.
"...... I see.
"I've met a lot of 'unemployed' people. But...

　A strand of hair falls down.

The maid, this is the first time I've met Futa-sama. I don't know about you, but I don't think it's right to judge people by their looks or occupation.
"...... I see. Thanks.
I'm not sure why people are thanking me, but maids like things more than words. If you're grateful, why don't you buy me dinner?
I'll buy you dinner when I earn it.
"Oh, you promised! ...... That's it.



　When I looked in the hand-mirror that was handed to me, I saw Futa's fearless face, just as it was at the Colosseum. 　

　Corona, peeking in from behind, smiles happily through the mirror.

The maid would not have met this handsome man if she had kept him away from her in the awful outfit she wore when she first met him. Do you understand what I'm saying?
"...... ah

　What about the handsome guy, let's put that aside.

　It's a good thing that I'm not the only one.









Did you think I was badly dressed?
If you think that's a decent look, you're too narcissistic!
