Konoha: From the moment I was adopted by Tsunade

Chapter 239 Maid Mei Terumi

Hidden Mist Village.

Natsume was unaware that his pet black cat had suffered a social death.

But he did it on purpose.

In order to prove to the two Yugito that she would indeed send outsiders to see her.

Who knows, he might become the Fourth Raikage someday.

Therefore, even if she was angry, she could only endure it.

Not only will they endure it, but they will also be even more obedient in the future.

Unless one day she stops caring.

But by then, she would probably have already fallen into darkness.

Natsume stopped in his tracks.

Wanli Sunshine Jewelry Store.

After several years of fishing at the bottom of the sea, the most readily convertible minerals are undoubtedly gold and silver.

Thus, jewelry stores came into being.

Although there is no modern processing equipment, ninjas are sufficient to replace it.

As for the very delicate operations, those are left to the Hyuga clan.

That's what professionalism is all about.

Their disdain is not a big problem when used to process jewelry.

Natsume pushed open the door.

Immediately, a young lady dressed in a kimono stepped forward.

With a bright smile and a slight bow, she asked, "What would you like, sir?"

"Necklace".

Natsume thought for a moment and then said.

He bought it for Mei Terumi.

Because Kirigakure was relatively poor, she wasn't wearing any jewelry.

She usually wears her off-shoulder strapless dress, which would be perfectly showcased if she wore a necklace.

I do have a bracelet, but that's a Skynet login device, not jewelry.

"plz follow me."

A lady in a kimono led the way to the necklace section.

The two counters were filled with a dazzling array of necklaces.

"The most popular necklace right now is from the Sakura brand."

The kimono-clad lady smiled and explained, "It's the favorite of the daimyo's wife from the Land of Water."

Natsume nodded.

This is another example of brand marketing leveraging the celebrity effect.

He casually picked up the most expensive necklace and said, "This one."

The kimono-clad lady's eyes lit up, and she asked, "Do you have a membership card? Different memberships offer different discounts. If you don't, I can get you one."

"I have."

Natsume took out a gold membership card.

"Honorable guest, please wait a moment while I wrap up the necklace you requested."

The kimono-clad lady's expression immediately changed, and her tone became exceptionally respectful.

A moment later, Natsume took the necklace away for free.

Because it was daytime, the streets of Kirigakure were quite bustling.

But most of them are ordinary people; there are relatively few ninjas.

Even a genin needs six years of training.

Chunin and Jonin, needless to say.

After two bloody reigns of the Mizukage, Kirigakure will likely have to wait several more years to increase its ninja numbers.

As for quality, that's something that takes more than ten or twenty years.

Based on the example of Mizukage Chojuro, it might even be extended.

The worst thing for a ninja village is the lack of skilled successors.

In this regard, Konoha Village probably has the least shortage of resources.

Geniuses come in waves.

It's no wonder it's the ninja village where the protagonist lives.

Upon arriving at the Mizukage Building, Natsume used the Flying Thunder God Technique.

The main problem is that most people haven't seen him before, and if they just run in, they might get arrested.

Mei Terumi was looking down at the documents.

Hearing the sound of the wind, she immediately stopped moving.

Because she knew that only one person could appear in this way: Natsume.

His arrival was clearly to have her dress as a maid.

Terumi felt a little uneasy as she meditated on this point.

"Is there something you need today?"

She looked at Natsume, her face slightly flushed, her eyes filled with trepidation.

"I came to see you."

Natsume handed her the jewelry box and said, "This is a gift for you."

"What...is it?"

Mei Terumi took the jewelry box, feeling both shy and expectant.

You'll see when you see it.

Natsume leaped slightly and sat back down on the Mizukage's desk.

"Can't you sit on the sofa?"

Mei Terumi opened the jewelry box as she spoke.

It is a shimmering silver necklace with cherry blossoms hanging down.

"Thanks."

Mei Terumi lowered her head and said.

"Let me put it on for you."

Natsume picked up the necklace and, without waiting for her consent, wrapped it around her fair neck.

When her hands touched her skin, Mei Terumi trembled, feeling quite uncomfortable.

"It feels pretty good."

Natsume looked down at the cherry blossom blooming in the valley.

Mei Terumi couldn't stand his burning gaze, so she got up and fled for the time being.

But instead of leaving the Mizukage's office, he made himself a cup of tea at the coffee table.

"for you."

Mei Terumi held out a teacup to Natsume.

"Thanks."

Natsume took a sip; it must be good tea.

However, he doesn't really like drinking tea and doesn't care whether it's good or bad.

"Oh, I forgot something."

Natsume put down his teacup and asked, "Serving tea and water should be done in maid attire, Mizukage-sama, you haven't forgotten, have you?"

"no."

Mei Terumi sighed inwardly. What was bound to happen would happen. "Where are the clothes?"

"As expected of the Mizukage."

Natsume smiled and took out a set of clothes.

"Are you dressed as a maid?"

Mei Terumi asked with a puzzled look.

"yes."

Natsume countered, "Why can't it be a maid outfit?"

"How can bandages be used as clothing?"

Terumi Mei asked through gritted teeth.

"But we still have kimonos, don't we?"

Natsume said with a smile.

"Is that a kimono? It's only half."

Mei Terumi glanced at it and roughly understood what the structure was.

But what's the difference between wearing these clothes and not wearing anything at all?

"Lord Mizukage, are you going back on your word?"

Natsume raised an eyebrow and said, "If that's the case, then let's forget about it. I never force people."

"..."

Seeing his expression, Mei Terumi's anger flared up. "Fine, I'll wear it!"

She turned and left, clutching her clothes.

Natsume jumped off the Mizukage's desk, picked up a teacup, and sat down on the sofa.

After a short wait, Mei Terumi reappeared before him.

Her reddish-brown hair was tied into a loose single ponytail, and her delicate face was flushed, making her look embarrassed.

The dumplings were wrapped in bandages and squeezed together, with a faint white light flowing through them.

The top is a half-length kimono, with long sleeves on the right and a sleeveless, off-the-shoulder design on the left, revealing her fair shoulders and arms.

The kimono is a fitted style with a black sash around the waist, which accentuates a slender figure, and the hem only reaches the hips.

Above her long, fair thighs were white straps, and below were black stockings.

"W-how is it?"

Mei Terumi felt the scrutinizing gazes and suppressed the urge to run away, asking, "Is...it...okay?"

"Seven days."

Natsume leaned back on the sofa, looked up at her, and said, "It's only been a few minutes."

"..."

Terumi Mei's pupils were shaking.

Wear this outfit for seven days?

She will die.

"No!"

Mei Terumi quickly waved her hand, "If anyone sees this, my time as Mizukage will be over!"

Under intense pressure, the blush on her face actually faded considerably.

"The maid outfit is, of course, only for the master to see."

Natsume looked at him strangely and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Mei Terumi paused slightly, then breathed a sigh of relief.

But soon, her expression changed.

Mei Terumi stepped forward, glaring at Natsume, and roared, "Master? You want to be my master? You're dreaming!"

"You're a maid now."

Seeing her angry and unwilling expression, Natsume asked, "If I'm not your master, then who is?"

"Nobody!"

Mei Terumi wasn't fooled and retorted fiercely, "I am the Mizukage, not anyone's maid!"

But behind her confident demeanor lay her guilty conscience.

After all, she had no way to deal with Natsume and could only hope that he would be intimidated.

However, this is useless.

"Does Lord Mizukage not keep his promise?"

Natsume sighed and said, "If that's the case, we'll lose credibility, especially with the Wanli Sunshine Trading Company."

Damn it!

Mei Terumi clenched her fists.

Her expression shifted repeatedly, finally bowing slightly and calling out through gritted teeth, "M-Master!"

His expression was as if he had seen his father's killer.

Fortunately, Natsume has an amazing amount of experience.

In past lives, there were gentle maids, and naturally, there were also maids with bad tempers.

No matter how bad they are, they are ultimately obedient.

That contrast is fantastic.

They complain verbally, but their actions tell a different story.

"What kind of disgusting expression is that?"

Mei Terumi took a step back in fright and said, "You really are a pervert!"

This sentence sounds familiar.

Natsume smirked and said, "Since you think I'm a pervert, then I should do something to match my status."

"..."

Mei Terumi stood there, stunned.

This was the first time she had encountered such a shameless person.

For a moment, I was at a loss and didn't know how to deal with it.

"Little maid, it's your turn to pour the tea."

Natsume pointed to the teacup and said.

Mei Terumi snapped out of her daze, staring intently at him, but still stepped forward, bent down, and picked up the teacup.

Due to gravity, the snow-white skin squeezed the straps, and the dumpling seemed to want to escape.

Natsume felt somewhat relieved.

Newton's coffin lid has finally been closed for once.

"What are you looking at?"

Mei Terumi raised her head, suppressing her anger, and asked.

"It's up to you."

Natsume had no scruples whatsoever.

"..."

Mei Terumi quickly poured the tea, immediately stood up, and said, "Alright, drink up."

"What kind of attitude is that?"

Natsume smiled and said, "You should say, 'The tea is ready, please enjoy it, Master,' and you should bring it to me."

"asshole!"

Mei Terumi could no longer hold back. She leaned forward and threw a punch with her clenched fist, but stopped in front of him.

"Tsk."

Natsume grabbed her hand, pulled her into his arms, and said, "Looks like it's time to give this disobedient maid a little punishment."

Mei Terumi struggled instinctively, but her body stiffened instantly, and she collapsed into his arms.

Natsume patted his buttocks, which gradually turned into a caress.

"You pervert!"

Mei Terumi jumped away immediately, like a startled rabbit.

Her face was as red as the morning glow, and her body trembled slightly.

"You don't even know what a maid is supposed to do?"

Natsume crossed his arms and said.

"Who wants to know those things?!"

Mei Terumi looked at him with disdain.

"Of course it's you."

Natsume smiled and asked, "Lord Mizukage, you're not going to give up halfway, are you?"

"I...of course I won't."

Mei Terumi's momentum weakened again, and she stammered, "But you can't do anything too extreme. I...I'm not...ready yet."

Am I that kind of person?

Natsume paused slightly, then asked in return.

Who knows?

Mei Terumi muttered to herself.

3,000 words. PS: I recommend a new book by a great author; he has several excellent works, so the quality is guaranteed.

He wanted to turn the world into a hellish place.

Good news: As the story unfolds, several years later, the chosen one will lead his confidante to kill that villain.
