I don't want to be a dragon maid!

Noah went to Shelley's room as soon as she left. She carefully pushed open the door and found that Shelley had woken up and was trying to get out of bed!

"Lord Shelley, you can't get out of bed like this!"

Noah looked flustered, seeing Shelley's state, she was somewhat at a loss for what to do.

"It's just a minor injury, not a disability, why are you so worried?"

Shelley glared at Noah, then slowly sat down on the edge of the bed, her tightly furrowed brows gradually relaxing.

"Even minor injuries require attention. Even if a paladin has healed them, one cannot be careless. After all, wounds can be relieved with healing magic, but diseases cannot."

Noah moved a small stool and sat down in front of Shelley. As if by magic, he produced a glass bottle and a cup and poured a warm cup of herbal tea for the girl in front of him.

"Come on! Come on! Drink more hot water. Right now, Lady Shelley's body needs nutrition. When we get home, I'll find you something good to eat to help you recover."

"That's an exaggeration, I really only suffered minor injuries..."

Shelley shook her head, looking somewhat lost.

"This has nothing to do with any injuries. It's just that Lord Shelley is exceptionally handsome this time, so Noah wants to serve him well..."

Noah smiled radiantly as she looked at Shelley, her golden eyes filled with tenderness.

"Setting traps, dealing with three monsters, leaving clues to attract others to the rescue—all of this, Lord Shelley, was it to save those children and girls?"

"Um……"

Shelley nodded, forcing a smile, and said.

"It's just that I'm too weak to be of much use."

Chapter Fourteen: Pain! Pain! Fly away!

"To have the courage to stand up and face such a dangerous situation is already very strong! At least in my family, Shelley is the strongest!"

Noah clenched her fists, looking at Shelley like a little fangirl, her eyes sparkling.

Shelley looked at Noah's expression and couldn't help but laugh, saying...

"Noah, what you're saying is way too exaggerated..."

"No, no, no! It's not an exaggeration at all. Lady Shelley, who stood up for the safety of others, is both handsome and beautiful!"

Noah waved her hands repeatedly, leaning closer to Shelley with a serious expression, and said...

"From this moment forward, I am Shelley-sama's sole fan. I will only ever love Shelley-sama!"

Shelley paused for a moment, then looked at Noah, who was standing right in front of her. Her face flushed instantly. She pushed Noah away and whispered something.

"How long have we known each other? You're exaggerating when it comes to love!

"It is a bit early, but it doesn't matter. Feelings can develop over time."

Noah sat back down, a mysterious expression on her face, emphasizing the word "sun".

Why do I feel like you're emphasizing the aspect of Japan?

Shelley looked at Noah, her eyebrows furrowed, and said.

"Oh dear, Lady Shelley, this is your imagination..."

Noah covered his mouth, a hint of slyness in his smile.

Noah isn't in a hurry right now. In her view, Shelley falling in love with her is only a matter of time, and then she can do all sorts of things with Shelley...

The problem is that it seems like I can't do what I want to do right now.

Ugh……

Noah thought he had gotten used to this body, but the thought of it still made him feel very empty.

Shelley, of course, had no idea what Noah was thinking. She swayed as she tried to stand up, but her strength gave way and she was about to fall to the floor.

Noah reacted quickly and caught Shelley.

"Lord Shelley, everyone says you haven't fully recovered and shouldn't move around too much..."

Noah said with a worried expression.

"I want to go home, at least there are magic books I can read there..."

Shelley lowered her head slightly, enduring the pain in her body, and said softly.

"Just tell me when you're going home! I'll carry Lady Shelley back in a princess carry right away."

Noah's eyes lit up, and she opened her arms to hug Shelley.

"No princess carry! Simple support or carrying me on your back is fine."

Shelley puffed out her cheeks slightly and said somewhat angrily.

"I still don't understand what you're thinking, Noah..."

"You're all I can think about... Ah, Shelley, don't move..."

Noah immediately noticed that there seemed to be red liquid flowing down Shelley's arm, and she quickly called out to Shelley.

"What? Huh?"

Shelley also saw that the bandage on her arm was soaked in blood, and the blood dripped down her arm and onto the floor.

"The wound has reopened. As expected, this kind of injury can't be healed with healing magic."

Shelley unwrapped the bandages, revealing a wound several tens of centimeters long on her arm. The skin was turned inside out, and blood was gushing out, indicating that she had been forcefully cut by a sharp object such as a stone.

Shelley looked quite helpless about the wound; it was clear that the injury had affected her, and she couldn't put any force on that hand for the time being.

Noah looked at the wound, a look of heartache on her face, and raised her head to speak.

"Lady Shelley, shall I heal your injury?"

"Noah, do you know healing magic?"

Shelley was taken aback at first, then asked curiously.

"I've seen the Paladin use it, and I've learned a little bit from it."

Noah sat down next to Shelley, looked up at Shelley, and said softly.

"Noah, are you exaggerating? If you could learn it just by watching, you wouldn't need a magic academy."

Shelley frowned and couldn't help but say.

"Lord Shelley, are you willing to believe me?"

Noah did not answer, but looked at Shelley, his golden eyes filled with calm and expectation.

Shelley and Noah looked at each other, and some memories seemed to gradually emerge in her mind. She remembered that when the monsters were about to kill her, it was this silver-haired maid who suddenly appeared and saved her life.

As the memory became clearer, Shelley saw Noah's golden eyes filled with murderous intent, and the image of him blasting the two monsters into bloody splatter.

The image of Noah with a murderous look in her mind overlapped with the gentle Noah before her, giving Shelley a sense of unreality.

But Shelley subconsciously felt that Noah was angry at her.

“Lady Shelley, do you think you can just say you don’t want to? You’re staring at my face like that. I’m getting shy.”

Noah shifted back and said, half-jokingly.

Shelley realized what was happening, looked away, hesitated for a moment, and finally reached out her hand to Noah.

"Give."

"Ah, Lord Shelley, that means..."

Noah was stunned for a moment, and said in disbelief.

"I choose to believe you... Noah, I hope you can live up to my trust."

Shelley took a breath and spoke slowly.

"Yes! I will not betray Lord Shelley's trust!"

Noah was immediately excited and exclaimed loudly.

Noah understood perfectly what this meant: Shelley was slowly lowering her guard, which meant that the distance between them was gradually closing.

I'm about to set my first romance flag since arriving in this other world!

Noah absolutely had to seize this opportunity!

Noah placed his hands on Shelley's arms, and she took a deep breath and shouted.

"Ouch! Ouch! Turn into a rocket and fly away! Chirp! Pop!"

As Noah spoke, she made a rocket shape with her right hand and flew upwards, then suddenly opened her right hand wide.

After performing these meaningless actions, Noah wiped the sweat from her forehead, exhaled a breath of stale air, and slowly spoke.

"What a tough opponent! Luckily, I'm a cut above the rest and managed to turn it into a rocket in time. Now Lord Shelley can rest easy..."

"How could I possibly feel at ease!"

Shelley's forehead veins bulged as she pointed at Noah and said angrily.

"What's with this bizarre spell and these random actions? Are you playing a trick on me?"

“How could I possibly play tricks on Lord Shelley? This is a healing spell I developed myself, called Rocket Healing Spell…”

Noah straightened up and said in a serious tone.

"If these ridiculous methods are all healing magic, then I'll be the maid and you'll be the master... Huh?"

Before Shelley could finish speaking, she noticed that the wound on her arm had disappeared, and not even two scars remained.

If it weren't for the blood on the ground, Shelley would have thought he was dreaming.

"Lord Shelley, what do you want to say?"

Noah looked at Shelley, who narrowed her eyes slightly, a mischievous smile playing on her lips.

Chapter Fifteen: A New Agreement and a Healthy Maid

Shelley knew she had been pranked by Noah, and looking at the maid's slightly smug smile, a surge of anger began to rise from the bottom of her heart.
