I left the orphanage as fast as I could because I felt I would cry if I saw the woman's reaction.
From today, I have to live and work.
Then I won't be able to see her face for the time being.
I am really sad. .......
But there's no point in being sad any more, so I'll change my mind.
To avoid making her sad, I want to work hard and become a full-fledged maid.
And finally, I've arrived at the place where I'm going to work.
"Phew.
I caught my breath.
vending machine toy
Nice to meet you.
So I said yes.
When I walked in, I saw some maids and a butler.
And they all looked at me.
Huh? What am I doing here?
Oh, you must be Bell.
I was just checking my clothes when a man came up to me.
"Yes, ma'am. This is Bell.
Amelie has told me about you.
Miss Amelie?
Who is it?
Um, ......, the woman who was interviewing me.
Oh, I see.
You made a decision right away when you saw me, didn't you?
That's good to hear. Amélie should be here soon, 'Ah, Belle!
I heard a familiar voice interrupting the man's speech.
I turned to look at the voice.
'I've been waiting for you! Come here.
Miss Amelie said, and pulled me somewhere else.
'Yes, put this on.'
Miss Amelie said and handed me some clothes.
"What's this?
It's a maid's uniform. Try it on.
I understand.
Then I put on my maid's uniform.
'Yes, that's cute! Belle's is the best because she had hers built extraordinarily pretty.
'Um, ...... why are you being so good to me, Amelie?'
Yeah, that's why I'm thinking of having you as Master Leo's personal maid .......
Huh? Your personal maid? Me?
'What are you talking about? There's no way I can do that.
'Well, ...... Master Leo is only eight years old, and in the next couple of years or so he'll have to go to the dorms.
Yes, sir.
'So I'm supposed to take one of my personal maids there ...... but I thought it would be better if Master Leo had a friendly maid anyway.
Yeah, and why me?
Aristocrats don't like beastmen, do they?
'From what I've been able to find out, Leo-kun is supposed to like beastie girls.
'Oh, really? ......
That's why you were so happy to see me as a beastman at the interview.
Yeah. So say hello.
Yes, sir.
Then ...... variously Amelie gave the entire maids a course, and in the evening it was time for her employer, Master Leo, to go home.
Now all the butlers and maids are neatly lined up and waiting for Master Leo to return home.
I'm feeling very nervous.
Now my master, whom I will serve for a long time, is coming in.
What will he be like?
I hope you're a scary person ...... or a kind person .
At any rate, I'm not going to make a mistake. .......
And finally, Master Leo came in at last .
I said, "Welcome home, Master," as I had learned to do, and thanked him.
"Well, ...... I'm Leons Forster. You'll take good care of the house from now on.
Leo-sama returned the greeting politely.
This surprised everyone.
I was also amazed at how many times I was advised by my seniors during the course to be careful because all the aristocrats are pompous and have a lot of temper tantrums .
But I'm glad to hear that.
From now on, I'll be working alongside you for a long time, so there's nothing better than having a gentle master.
And now the time has come for me to be introduced to Leos.
Amelie called me into the room where Master Leo was.
"This is Belle, who will be Master Leo's personal maid.
Hi, nice to meet you.
Amelie introduced me as soon as she walked in, so I got flustered and made a funny greeting .
Oh, I've done it. ...... Now they must have thought I was a bad maid. .......
Leo-sama will stare at me without saying a word.......
Maybe I've pissed him off after all: .......
Then Amelie warned Leo, "Leo-sama, you shouldn't stare at a girl so much.
And Reo apologized, saying he was sorry.
Huh? You're not angry with me?
Then why was he staring at me so intently ......?
"But I'm glad to see that Master Leo seems to like it. It was worth the hard work.
What's hard is that no matter what I did, I kept making mistakes.
Every time I cleaned, I spilled a bucket of water.
They asked me to carry something, I dropped it and broke it, etc.
No matter what I did, I couldn't do it. .......
Things I wouldn't normally fail to do in the orphanage, but when I was aware of the work I was doing, I failed to do them. .......
It was a real problem: .......
Also, I'm the personal maid so I'll be there when Leo-sama comes home, but as soon as he's not busy, he talks to me.
Just "What kind of magic can you use? How much magic do you have? But there were only questions about magic such as
By the way, my magic is beast magic, which is the magic that can change ...... the body into the shape of a beast.
I didn't want to tell you because I was embarrassed to be seen doing this, but ...... Leosama kept asking me about it, so I told him.
Then he said, "What's that? I want to see it!
Sure enough, I was told what I was afraid of: .......
I had somehow managed to escape it: .......
''Please . I'll show you my creative magic! Please, please.
Finally, my husband had to be forced to use a funny thing called respectful language.
'Okay, ...... but can I just use my hands? I'm embarrassed about the rest.
I've decided to show it to you.
'Yes, I'm just happy to show it to you!
Okay, I understand.
Then I gather magic power in my hand and use magic.
Then my hand becomes hairy and hairy and sharp claws come out.
"Huh? Can Bell use magic manipulation?
'Magic manipulation? Oh, in the orphanage where I grew up, we couldn't buy magic tools and stuff like that at a high end, so we used cheap magic stones to train our magic power.
I see. ...... That's a great move by the way,
Leo-sama said and looked at my hand intently.
''Ha, don't look at me like that, I'm so embarrassed!
I was so embarrassed that I covered my hands.
"Sorry, sorry. Can I touch your arm?
'What? Leo-sama, do you understand what I'm sorry for?
Just give me a little bit, just a little bit.
Wow, okay, ......, it's just a little bit.
Maybe if I said no, he'd ask me again, so I held out my hand.
"Really? Thank you!
Leo-sama was smiling and touching my hand .
What is the point of such hairy hands?
So I guess it's my turn.
What?
Didn't I promise to show you my creation magic if Belle showed you?
'Oh, and speaking of which: ......'
He might have said something like that.
Okay, let's go build it.
Then Leo rifled through a backpack that was standing at the end of the room.
Inside the backpack, Leo pulled out a beautiful, shiny block of metal and a magical stone with an incredible radiance.
"Okay, now that I've found the ingredients, let's get started.
Yeah, what's that stuff?
Oh, this? It's a magical stone that Mithril and I poured our magic into.
'What? Mithril? And that's how fine a magic stone is by yourself: ......
I hear that Master Leo is really a great guy.
Well, enough about the material, just watch the magic.
Yes, sir.
Then we'll begin!
Then, Leo-sama placed the magic stone on top of the mithril .
And as Leo-sama turned his hand to the material, ...... what a glow!
Then gradually the two became one.
Then, as the shape changed in a flash, it became a necklace and the ...... light settled in.
It's amazing. ......
That's all I can come up with.
Yeah? Then I'll give you this.
Then he handed me a freshly made necklace.
Leosama gave it to me so naturally that I took it, but then I came to my senses.
Hold on to it! I can't accept something this expensive.
No, that's okay, you'll just have to work harder for it.
I don't care if you say that .......
But you're expecting me to do it, and I have to take it. .......
I'll tell you what: "Okay, I understand ...... and I'll do my best to work hard from now on.
Yeah, nice to meet you. And you'll be wearing that necklace at all times.
'What? Why? I can't wear it all the time because I'm afraid I'll break it!
It's not something that's going to break so easily, and if you don't wear it, it's not worth it.
What's the point? What do you mean?
Really? Okay. ......
I felt like there was no point in saying no, so I put the necklace around my neck.
'Yeah, that's fine.'
Leo looked pleased.
'Oh, thank you.'
''No, then there's still time to help me pour my magic power into the magic stone?''
'What? Do I pour my magic into it?
Leo-sama shouldn't need my help, from what I saw of the magic stone earlier: .......
Yeah. Help me every day from now on.
I have no idea what Leo-sama intended, but it's a lot better than being asked to show me magic.
'Yes, I understand.'
Then it became a daily routine to pour my magic power into Master Leo and the magic stones every night: .......
