The two sisters didn't react to the praise about the time; instead, they flattered each other.

The two sisters seem to have a very good relationship.

"Chen, what are you saying? I'm clearly the cutest!" Betty said jealously.

“Yes, Betty is cuter.” Shi Chen rubbed her head.

"Hehe~" Betty smiled and enjoyed his head pat.

Ram watched this scene calmly, his heart filled with shock. Lady Beatrice, who was usually so unapproachable, could actually show such a side of herself... Just who was this guest?

"Hmm? Ram, what's wrong? Do you want me to pat your head too?" Shichen noticed her gaze.

"I......"

"Don't be so polite. Although I am a guest, you don't need to treat me like one. Besides, I am very interested in maids."

"Oh no! My sister's been targeted! She's going to be subjected to lewd acts!" Rem suddenly exclaimed.

"What is Rem talking about? Didn't the guest say he was interested in maids? It must be you. Maybe you've already been humiliated in the guest's mind." Ram retorted.

"My older sister is also a maid."

"I'm not as good as Rem."

"Guest, if you have any problems, please come at my sister and let Rem go."

"No, it's all about Rem. Rem is much stronger than me. Please, spare Ram."

"..." Shi Chen's lips twitched.

These twins, one second they were showing their sisterly affection, the next they started running away from each other.

Although Shi Chen knew they were joking, how could they slander him?

Does he even need to do things that involve having wild fantasies?

He's not some innocent virgin who's never experienced anything.

"...Where is your decorum as maids? Is this how you slander your guests?" Shichen couldn't help but question.

"Oh dear~ Didn't the guest say not to treat you like an outsider?" Ram smiled playfully.

“That’s right, are guests supposed to go back on their word?” Rem asked with a smile.

"...Alright, you guys win." Shi Chen shook his head helplessly.

"Alright, alright, Chen, stop playing with them. You promised to stay with me!" Betty shook Shi Chen's hand, pouting in dissatisfaction.

"That's true, Rem, Ram. I'll continue showing Betty around the mansion for now. Is that alright?"

“Yes, with Lady Beatrice’s assurance, there will be no problem.” Ram nodded.

"My sister and I will go make breakfast now. Please wait a moment, guests," Rem said.

"Calling me a guest would make me feel like an outsider again. Just call me by my name."

"A name? Yes, Lord Toki." Rem nodded in response.

"...Even adults don't need it."

"Then the time will do," Ram said nonchalantly.

"Hmm, that's more like it. If I were to be any more polite, it would be a disservice to the way I mentally humiliated you all," Shi Chen teased.

"So you really did humiliate us in your mind?" Rem looked frightened, her hand trembling slightly as she held her sister's.

"Rem, let's run, or the beastly nature of Time will unleash its fury."

"Run!"

The two held hands, then turned and jogged towards the kitchen.

"Sigh." Shi Chen watched the two figures flee in disarray, sighed, and then laughed again.

It's impossible not to be happy to actually meet the two of them.

"Hmph~ Chen, you still really like Rem." Betty snorted unhappily.

“Is that so…” Shi Chen did not deny it.

He had already guessed at a certain possibility, that he really liked Rem no matter what.

"But I like Betty a lot too." Shi Chen rubbed Betty's head vigorously.

"Hmm~"

Despite Shichen messing up her hair, Betty didn't mind at all, and a sweet smile still graced her little face.

"Hehe~ Let's go, let's continue touring the mansion."

“Let me lead the way!” Betty grabbed Shichen’s hand and strode forward, full of enthusiasm.

Shichen, holding Esther's hand, followed behind her with a smile.

The mansion is very large, and it's impossible to see it all in a short time, but there are many places that don't need to be visited.

An hour later, Betty took Shichen to the courtyard for a tour. The mansion was not yet fully explored, but she planned to leave it for later.

This way, I can spend more time with Shichen.

"You're here...wait, why is Beatrice here too?"

Not long after arriving in the courtyard, Emilia's gentle voice came from outside, and when Shichen looked at her, his eyes lit up.

Emilia changed her hairstyle; her waist-length silver hair was not tied up, but allowed to fall naturally down her back.

That is, long, straight silver hair.

The outfit wasn't the long robe from yesterday, but a soft white dress that suited her slender figure. The dress was unexpectedly short, and her long, exquisite legs made it impossible to look away.

"Tch~ Emilia, what brings you here?" Betty clicked her tongue in annoyance.

"Huh? Beatrice, you seem to be unhappy with me." Emilia walked over and looked at her with confusion.

"Of course! You've disturbed my and Chen's time together." Betty put her hands on her hips.

“A world for two… Chen… what’s going on?” Emilia didn’t understand.

"I see." A neutral voice rang out, and Puck suddenly appeared in front of Emilia.

It's daytime now, which is when it can be active.

"Parker, what's going on?" Emilia asked in confusion. She remembered that Beatrice wasn't very friendly to anyone.

“Amelia, Betty and Toki have signed a contract,” Parker replied.

"What? Really?" Emilia looked at Shichen in disbelief, seeking confirmation.

"That's right." Shi Chen nodded with a smile.

"Wow, that's amazing... Didn't you and Beatrice just meet?"

"Perhaps this is fate." Shi Chen couldn't explain the reason either.

"Is it fate?" Emilia couldn't help but look at the silent Estée.

Speaking of which, Esther is also an elf, and yesterday the little elves she summoned were so close to Shichen.

"Shichen, you are very popular with the elves."

"Maybe."

"Betty, is Shichen the person you've been waiting for?" Parker asked Betty, unusually serious.

“Parker, Chen is the person I’ve been waiting for, and it’s only him,” Betty replied earnestly.

"Is that so? I understand... From now on, I'll leave Betty in your care."

"Don't worry, Parker, I'll take good care of Betty," Shichen assured him.

"Hmph~ Isn't that obvious~" Betty said proudly, tilting her chin up.

Seeing her like this, Shi Chen couldn't help but rub her little head.

One thing that surprised him was that Betty and Parker weren't that close, even though the two elves were practically siblings.

Is it because of him?

“Shichen, I have a question,” Emilia asked suddenly, watching their actions.

"what?"

“You told me yesterday… that this gesture meant praise, but I don’t think it means that now.” Emilia was referring, of course, to Shichen’s head pat.

"Well..."

"Hehe, a head pat isn't just a compliment, it also means affection," Betty explained happily.

"Spoil, pamper!?" Emilia blushed, looking at Shichen in disbelief.

"Ahem, no, Emilia, don't overthink it. This behavior depends on the situation."

"Is that so...?" Emilia still seemed very shy.

"Serves you right for being so talkative. Now you've been misunderstood, haven't you?" Shi Chen pinched Betty's cheek in annoyance, though not with much force.

"Hmm~ that's exactly what I meant~ who told you to like patting heads everywhere?" Betty protested, pouting.

"Still dare to argue?" Shi Chen released Esther and instead used both hands to pinch her bouncy cheeks.

"No way!" Betty said, but her little face was full of smiles.

"Hahaha~" Emilia laughed out loud upon seeing this.

"What's wrong?" Shi Chen turned to look at her.

"No, I just feel that Shichen and Beatrice seem to have known each other for a long time."

“Of course! My relationship with Chen is not something you can interfere with,” Betty replied.

"Intercourse, foot-in-foot?"

“Don’t even think about taking Chen away from me!” Betty declared bluntly.

"So that's how it is. No wonder Beatrice was so hostile towards me just now... Don't worry, I won't steal it."

"Not always."
