I don't want to be a dragon maid!

Margaret turned her head and said with a puzzled look.

"Is that possible? After all, everyone's physical condition is different. Even I, this maid, once slid down a bear in a fit of extreme anger."

Noah said in a very serious tone.

"Oh, Miss Maid, you've killed a bear before?"

Margaret looked at Noah, a slight look of surprise on her face.

"It's very simple. All you need is a small knife, and by using the force of a sliding tackle, you can disembowel a bear."

Noah continued to spout nonsense with a straight face.

"What a peculiar method of killing a bear! Who is the maid's mentor?"

Margaret gave an awkward but polite smile.

"Wozki Xia Shuode".

Noah said with a serious expression.

"That's my master's name... Oh my!"

Before Noah could finish speaking, Shelley lightly kicked him in the shin.

"Xia Shuode... I've never heard of this surname before, Miss Maid. Could you please explain in more detail?"

Margaret stroked her chin, her chin furrowed slightly, looking deep in thought.

“Miss Knight, don’t listen to this guy’s nonsense. He just likes to brag like that.”

Shelley rolled her eyes at Noah and said irritably.

"Who said I was bragging? I'm incredibly brave... Shelley, ouch, ouch, ouch..."

Shelley reached out and pinched Noah's slightly swollen cheek, pulling it outward as she spoke softly.

"In short, Miss Knight, we know we've already told you that we haven't seen the Grandmaster who killed the Blood Demon."

"That's a real shame, to have missed out on such a master."

Margaret sighed, looked at the Blood Demon, and a sense of relief appeared on her face.

"However, being able to defeat the Blood Demon means that the Grandmaster lives nearby, so I still have a chance to meet him..."

"If you really can't find one, you can become my apprentice. I can teach you the technique of killing a bear with a sliding tackle!"

Noah rubbed her red cheeks and said with a serious expression.

"Haha, maybe next time!"

Margaret responded politely.

"Margaret! Margaret! Are you there?"

While the three were still discussing the Blood Demon, someone in the forest was already carrying a torch and heading this way, clearly having already seen the mountain of flesh.

Noah and Shelley looked in the direction of the sound and saw that among the soldiers who had come to their aid, the one at the very front was Sister Dora, clad in armor and wielding a hammer...

“I see. In other words, just as Margaret said, the two of you only found the corpses of the Blood Demons, but did not see the people who killed them.”

Inside the small house, Dora sat on a stool and wrote down what Shelley and Noah had said, while outside the door, a group of mages were casting teleportation spells on the Blood Demon, trying to move the mountain of flesh onto the carriage.

"That's right, we've already explained everything to Miss Knight."

Shelley nodded, and she said earnestly.

"Then that's fine. You two just need to sign and stamp the document before you can leave."

Dora closed her notebook, looking at the two of them with a gentle smile on her face.

"But Dora, aren't you a nun? Why are you dressed like this? And carrying such a weapon?"

Shelley looked at the enormous iron hammer, which was taller than herself, and her lips twitched slightly.

"There's no other way, Snow Eagle City is short-staffed right now!"

Dora touched her cheek, her face filled with helplessness.

"The Bloodclaw Society is still causing trouble, and there aren't enough guards, so I have to be both a nun and the captain of the guards. I have to carry this broken magic hammer all day long, and my hands ache terribly every day. I really want to change jobs."

"Are your arms sore from carrying this?"

Shelley pointed at the hammer, which looked heavier than herself, and couldn't help but complain.

"Where did you come from, you superhuman nun? What goddess do you need to worship? One hit from your hammer and you could send someone straight to meet the goddess."

"Oh, these little things aren't important."

Dora smiled and brushed it off, her eyes full of ambiguity as she looked at Noah and Shelley.

"But you two are quite interesting. You've come to this desolate place and built a small house with a table and a bed. You're living quite well..."

"Hehe, Sister, you know a lot, don't you?"

Noah gave Dora the same look and said with a smile.

"That's right, I was young once too..."

Dora looked at Noah with an expression that said, "I understand."

"You two are really something! We're just here to practice, yes, just practice, don't get me wrong!"

"Little Shelley, I haven't said anything yet, what are you explaining?"

Dora smiled slyly and said in a teasing tone.

"This one……"

Shelley immediately felt guilty, and she looked away.

"And it was raining heavily just now, and you two were in this small house. Did anything happen?"

Dora pressed her advantage, continuing to ask further questions.

"No, there's nothing there..."

Shelley blushed immediately and shook her head repeatedly, while Noah maintained his smile and calmly said.

"To be precise, we've done everything we should have done and everything we shouldn't have done."

Upon hearing this, Shelley fell silent.

"Oh? Everything went smoothly?"

Dora was slightly startled. She looked at Shelley and asked in a questioning tone.

Shelley didn't speak, but instead reached out and grabbed a piece of flesh on Noah's waist, then twisted it hard.

"Ouch!"

Noah jumped three feet high, stood up and looked at Shelley, saying.

"Lord Shelley, what are you doing?"

Shelley had attacked Noah several times before, but this was the first time she had really hurt him. Even the thick-skinned Noah felt a bit of pain.

Shelley merely glared at Noah, then snorted and turned her head away.

Noah seemed to see not only anger and dissatisfaction in Shelley's pale blue eyes, but also a hint of subtle resentment.

"It seems that one of the little mice failed to steal the sesame oil and angered another little mouse."

Dora rested her chin on her hand and said, half-jokingly.

Upon hearing this, Shelley puffed out her cheeks and glared fiercely at Dora.

"Alright, alright, I won't tease you two anymore."

Dora gave a wry smile, rubbed her nose, and said wearily.

"If you two are alright, you can go now. Don't worry about going down the mountain; the guards will protect you."

"Oh, is that all?"

Shelley said with some doubt.

"Do you two intend to stay here for some other purpose?"

Dora looked at Shelley, stroked her chin, and said softly.

"How about I reserve a room for you two..."

"No need, we'll leave right away!"

Shelley said without hesitation.

Chapter 56 I really can't do anything with you

As Dora watched Noah and Shelley walk away, her playful smile vanished, replaced by a furrowed brow as she began to peruse Noah and Shelley's notes.

There was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

Dora said without looking up.

A purple-haired girl clad in armor strode in. She looked at Dora and said with some concern.

"Captain Dora, are we really going to let Shelley Brenda just leave like this?"

"Hmm? What else can we do if we don't let them leave?"

Dora placed the notebook she was holding on the table and said with a smile.

"Are you suggesting we invite them to stay here overnight?"

"But ever since the strange maid appeared, the Bloodclaw Society's attack frequency has increased. In two of those attacks, Shelley Brenda and Noah Loran were both nearby. At least that maid was very strange..."

Before the purple-haired girl could speak, Dora reached out her hand to stop her.

“There’s no need. Since Miss Anne and the Great Magician of Flowers said Noah is fine, then she is fine. As for Shelley, I can assure you that she is just an ordinary girl. We don’t need to do anything unnecessary.”

Dora remained calm and spoke softly.

"But……"
