I don't want to be a dragon maid!

After a long while, Noah released Shelley, who slowly stepped back and said with a serious expression.

"A happy childhood heals a lifetime, while an unhappy person spends a lifetime healing from their childhood. Don't worry! As long as Noah is here, you will never experience these misfortunes again."

"Oh? Hmm!"

Shelley stared blankly at Noah, her expression somewhat dazed.

"As the first step in healing, let's make up for the lost birthday presents!"

Noah took out the Serpent Heart Bracelet and the Serpent Heart Eye and handed them to Shelley, who said softly.

"Although it's not Shelley's birthday yet, I've decided to give these two gifts as a belated birthday greeting."

"This is……"

Shelley stared wide-eyed at the silver bracelet gleaming with blue light in Noah's hand, her voice trembling.

"This is a cheap item I found in Snow Eagle City. It's not an expensive gift, but it's a token of my appreciation. I hope Lord Shelley won't find it offensive."

Noah looked at Noah with a gentle expression and spoke softly.

"No, how could this be? This is the first time anyone has ever given me a gift like this!"

Shelley took the bracelet and glass beads, caressing them carefully, looking as if she couldn't bear to part with them. Moved, tears welled up in her sapphire-like eyes.

"Haha, Lord Shelley, I'm glad you're satisfied!"

Noah said with a smile as he secretly observed the Serpent Heart Bracelet and the Serpent Heart Eye.

These two mid-tier spiritual artifacts didn't seem to react at all, looking no different from ordinary decorations. It seems that Lady Shelley's strength is indeed not enough...

Noah assessed Shelley's strength in his mind.

"Noah, can I really accept this gift?"

Shelley looked at Noah and said in disbelief.

"Of course, this is also a token of my appreciation."

Noah said with a smile.

"Thank you... cough cough, I won't let you give me this gift for nothing."

Shelley coughed a few times, then looked up and said with a haughty expression.

"I'll give you a gift of the same value for your birthday!"

Noah was already used to Shelley's haughtiness; she, as her master, wouldn't be straightforward in expressing her gratitude.

However, Noah quite liked Shelley's personality.

"Lord Shelley, please try it on! See if it fits..."

Noah gave the instructions.

Shelley didn't put it on immediately. Looking at the bracelet and glass ball on her palm, her expression kept changing. Finally, she raised her head, looked at Noah, and mustered up her courage to speak.

"Noah, would you like me to teach you to read?"

"Can you read?"

A hint of doubt appeared on Noah's face.

“You mentioned last time that although you can speak Snow City language, you can’t pronounce it. Perfect, I’ll teach you how to pronounce it…”

Shelley and Noah, a hint of melancholy in her eyes, she said softly.

"This is all I can do for you right now. I know this request is insignificant compared to your help... If you want to refuse, then refuse!"

“Of course! Lord Shelley, I would be very happy to be your teacher.”

Noah suddenly became agitated. She looked at Noah, her eyes gleaming with an eerie light.

"It just so happens that I recently sewed an outfit that perfectly matches my identity as a teacher!"

"Clothes... clothes?"

Shelley looked at the somewhat delirious Noah before her, and for some reason, she had a bad feeling.

"Lord Shelley, you won't refuse my request, will you?"

Noah drew closer to Shelley, her nimble fingers trembling uncontrollably, making her look like a lustful woman driven by insatiable hunger…

After half an hour.

Noah sat on a haystack, craning her neck in anticipation, while in front of her, on a wooden table, lay various magic books.

These magic books contain the most basic magic that can be learned today, and they are also the books with the most written text in the Snow Country. However, Noah is not looking forward to these magic books.

It was the teacher who was about to go on stage to explain these books.

At this moment, the wooden door slowly opened, and Shelley poked her head out, saying with some difficulty.

"Noah, do I really have to go out dressed like this? It feels so uncomfortable..."

As soon as Noah saw Shelley about to appear, she immediately produced a paintbrush and a wooden board in her hand, and shouted loudly with stars in her eyes.

"Lady Shelley, please feel free to wear it out! The clothes I make are all very wholesome, the kind that even children can wear! And I believe this outfit will perfectly showcase Lady Shelley's charm!"

"Sigh, okay..."

Shelley pushed open the door and slowly walked out.

In an instant, Noah felt that the world around him, which had lost its color, was suddenly filled with color!

Shelley, dressed in a black suit and white shirt and wearing black-rimmed glasses, slowly walked out.

The well-fitting business suit perfectly accentuated her slender figure, while the black-rimmed glasses added a touch of intellect and maturity to the young woman. The pointer she held in her hand was something Noah could never forget.

If I had a beautiful teacher like that in high school, I wouldn't have ended up transmigrating into a maid in another world!

Noah couldn't help but sigh.

Chapter Twenty-Six: What's wrong with you, maid?

"Noah, are you sure there's anything wrong with these clothes?"

Shelley crossed her right arm over her chest and said somewhat awkwardly.

"I always feel a tightness in my chest..."

"No problem! This proves that, Lord Shelley, your figure is still incredibly close to the golden ratio!"

Noah's eyes lit up as she looked at Shelley, who was dressed in a teacher's uniform, and she felt an inexplicable urge to cry.

Oh, that real world I can never return to! This is the only way I can remember my past.

"Noah, where did you get this strange outfit?"

Shelley looked herself up and down in her suit and asked in a low voice.

"I made it myself. Is sewing clothes one of a maid's skills?"

Noah placed the easel and paintbrush on her lap, posing with her hands in a photo-taking gesture, trying to find the best angle for painting.

"Lady Shelley, you are absolutely wonderful! I can't find a single fault with you! Perfect figure, perfect proportions! I must have saved the world in my past life to have met a master like you!"

"Really? Do I look good...?"

Shelley's face lit up with a happy expression, but she quickly wiped the smile off and said awkwardly,

"I'm not happy, I just saw that you really like this dress, so..."

"Yes, yes, I understand!"

Noah picked up his paintbrush and canvas and said with a serious expression.

"Lord Shelley, could you lean forward slightly and point your pointer at the wooden board to the side?"

"Leaning forward, pointing to the wooden board? Is that right?"

Shelley pushed up her glasses and struck the pose Noah had instructed.

"Yes, that's right. And then, Lord Shelley, please say that sentence again. Classmates, this question will be on the next exam!"

Noah spoke again.

"Class, this question will be on the next test... is that right?"

As soon as Shelley finished speaking, Noah picked up a paintbrush and started drawing rapidly on the canvas. She looked excited, like a crazy artist.

"Noah, what are you doing...?"

Shelley walked toward Noah and said with a curious expression.

“Lord Shelley, now show a little anger, lean forward, and say loudly…”

Noah put down her paintbrush and spoke again with a serious expression.

"You are the worst class I've ever taught!!!"

"You are the worst class I've ever taught, is that right?"

“Great. Next, you'll stay after school today for extra tutoring…”

Half an hour later, Noah finally put down her paintbrush, let out a long sigh, and said loudly.

"It's done!!!"

"Noah, what are you doing?"

Shelley rubbed her stiff shoulders and said with some dissatisfaction.

"You promised to teach, but all you did was make me pose? And what were you writing over there...?"

At this moment, Shelley walked up to Noah, and saw the maid flipping through the drawing paper in her hand, her face full of excitement.

The drawings on the paper depicted Shelley dressed in teacher's attire, some angry, some gentle, some aloof...

Each one has a different expression, but what they all have in common is that Shelley on the drawing paper looks like an intellectual and mature beauty, and they all look so lifelike that they seem to jump out of the paper at any moment.

"What...what is this? Noah, what are you drawing?"

Shelley looked at the portraits with astonishment.

"I'm drawing all of Shelley's most beautiful side!"
