I don't want to be a dragon maid!

Shelley lowered her head slightly and said somewhat shyly.

"You clearly looked very happy; you were smiling the whole time."

"Sigh, am I laughing?"

Noah was slightly startled and quickly asked.

"His smug grin is really annoying to watch..."

Shelley said this, but maintained a faint smile on her face.

Noah touched her face and found that the corners of her mouth were turned up high, and a joyful and warm feeling spread through her heart.

He couldn't control himself! Noah really wanted to control his expression, but the joy that came from the bottom of his heart was impossible to suppress, and he could only let it out through the smile on his face.

"I'm sorry, Lady Shelley, I couldn't quite control myself..."

Noah touched her face and said with some distress.

"What an idiot..."

Shelley rolled her eyes at Noah, then turned around and added another sentence.

"I'm an idiot too..."

After saying this, Shelley slowed her pace, came to Noah's side, and gently leaned against her.

"Lord Shelley..."

Noah froze again, and she said hesitantly.

"What's wrong? I'm tired and want to rest. Is there a problem?"

Shelley leaned against Noah and whispered.

"No objection, I have no objection to whatever Lord Shelley does..."

Noah said softly as he gently put his arm around Shelley's shoulder, helping her relax and lean against him.

Shelley trembled slightly, but she did not resist; her tense body gradually relaxed.

"I'm just tired, don't get the wrong idea..."

Shelley leaned against Noah, repeating herself as if she were still worried.

"Yes, Lord Shelley is tired. Noah will be Lord Shelley's walking stick."

Noah said with a smile.

The two girls leaned on each other as they slowly made their way home, enjoying this brief but beautiful time together.

Noah looked up at the sky. This was the first time she had ever seen the moon overhead, and the first time she had ever felt that the moon in this other world was beautiful. Of course, this beauty could not compare to that of the girl nestled against her.

The night passed quickly, and after dinner, Noah went to clean.

Shelley sat on the bed and took out her notebook, starting to write something.

This notebook contains Shelley's envisioned magical array and ideas, and now there's another small plan.

Shelley witnessed Noah's power; if she were to face that Blood Demon, she would probably end up as minced meat.

Noah’s power exceeded her imagination time and time again, and Shelley’s desire to become stronger became even clearer.

This feeling became even stronger after she kissed Noah.

Shelley didn't want to be separated from Noah, nor did she want to see him taken away by someone else; she wanted to have the strength to protect her own happiness.

Shelley knew she wasn't a magical prodigy; she could only grow stronger little by little through her own efforts.

Perhaps one day, I will be qualified to face Noah and tell him my feelings for her...

Shelley was momentarily distracted by this thought and made a black mark on the paper. She quickly wiped it away and continued writing.

Therefore, she needs a plan. Before entering the Snow Eagle Magic Academy, Shelley must strengthen her foundation so that her potential can be increased.

Although she has always had her own plans, she needs to put more effort into becoming stronger.

While Shelley was still writing his plan, Noah was cleaning and grinning like an idiot.

Since she and Shelley returned from outside, she immediately felt that her backache and leg pain had disappeared, and she could repair the room in one go without feeling tired at all.

Shelley's kiss had a calcium-boosting effect on Noah.

No, just thinking about it made Noah's face burn, and he couldn't stop grinning like an idiot.

First it's a cheek kiss, then a full kiss, then holding hands on a date, and then...

Noah covered her cheeks, letting out a silent scream, even though she often said she wanted to take her relationship with Shelley to a further level of "master and servant".

But the thought of ending up like Shelley made Noah want to disappear into thin air. It was just too embarrassing!

No, Noah, Shelley is already being tsundere. As a maid, you have to be more proactive. Otherwise, you won't have the experience to handle the harem in the future. Wait, the harem?

Noah paused for a moment, then began to think seriously.

As a transmigrator, Noah doesn't dislike harems, but she prefers her current life, taking care of Lady Shelley's life, teasing her every day, and enjoying her shy and adorable appearance.

These carefree and joyful days were already paradise for Noah. She didn't want to change them, nor did she want to make Lord Shelley sad.

But then I remembered that when I traveled through time, the goddess seemed to have promised me a harem...

Noah paused for a moment, then touched her chin, a look of fear on her face.

I think I've read similar novels in the real world. In these kinds of harem novels, all sorts of female characters are mindlessly throwing themselves at each other without any reason.

Will this goddess just fulfill her wish like this?

Just thinking about it made Noah break out in a cold sweat.

If that's really the case, and I'm surrounded by a bunch of beautiful women, how am I supposed to face Shelley in the future?

Even if you jumped into the Yellow River, you couldn't clear your name in that situation!

Chapter Fifty-Eight: Noah's Fear

Noah breaks out in a cold sweat just thinking about it.

During his time with Shelley, Noah realized that Shelley would never accept a harem. Rather than sharing herself with a bunch of women, Shelley would rather die than live in dishonor.

He could either become completely corrupted, drink a mouthful of rat poison, and then commit suicide.

Either cut ties with yourself completely and go far away.

No matter what the outcome, Noah can't accept it! All she really wants now is to live a quiet life with Shelley.

"My Goddess, could you please grant my wish to have a harem?"

Noah found it increasingly terrifying, and in desperation, she had no choice but to beg the goddess she had cursed countless times once again.

"It would be best if you could also remove my body, my maid's body, along with it. I, Noah, will certainly offer all sorts of delicious sacrifices to express my respect for you..."

Of course, it had no effect whatsoever. Noah remained unchanged; she was still herself, the beautiful silver-haired maid.

"It was useless after all... Goddess, thank you and your whole family!"

Noah looked dejected. Now she could only hope that the goddess would forget her desire for a harem and allow her to live out her life peacefully with Shelley.

Perhaps because she was thinking too much, Noah, who had boundless energy, felt tired for the first time. After cleaning the room, she went back to her haystack to sleep early.

In her dreams, she had all sorts of nightmares, one of which involved Noah and Shelley in a room in the real world.

She received an "I'm sorry" text message from Shelley on her phone.

She heard the sound of water boiling, then turned around and saw Shelley holding a kitchen knife...

There was another dream, a scene of heavy snowfall. Shelley looked at the long line of concubines behind Noah, and coldly said that she was tired, goodbye! Never again! Then she turned and left.

No matter how hard Noah tried to catch up, Shelley's figure grew further and further away from her.

When Noah woke up, his whole body ached, and his maid's clothes were soaked with sweat.

Although Noah's maid outfit never gets stained and always looks brand new, this sign makes Noah uneasy.

Noah seriously considered what he should do if Shelley really turned to the dark side or left him.

However, Noah dared not even think about the consequences of this problem. If he really pushed Shelley to this point, he would be devastated!

Noah sighed, got up and went to the kitchen, intending to wash her face and make breakfast as usual.

But as soon as Noah stepped out of the room, she noticed that Shelley's door was open. She glanced inside and saw that her bed was empty and the blankets were neatly made.

Noah's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly searched in other directions for Shelley's whereabouts.

Sure enough, after searching around, Shelley was nowhere to be found. Noah even discovered that one of Shelley's clothes was missing, and some of her gold coins were also missing.

No way! Could it be that Lord Shelley has run away from home?

No, why? I haven't even started my harem yet, and Shelley has just disappeared?

Could all those dreams have been omens?

Noah was nearly driven crazy by the various thoughts that kept popping into her head, but when she looked at the dining table, she noticed a piece of paper weighed down by a wooden bowl, with a sentence written crookedly on it.

"I'm going to the South District to exercise and buy breakfast on the way, don't worry about me..."

Noah was relieved to see Shelley's handwriting. It turned out Shelley hadn't run away from home after all. I was so scared!

At this moment, Noah discovered that there was also a sentence written on the back of the paper.

"And let you experience what it's like to be anxious, see if you dare to leave me in the room with just a note next time!"

Compared to the previous sentence, this sentence seems less serious.

Noah could even picture Shelley's adorable puffed-out cheeks as he wrote those words.

"You really do hold grudges, Lord Shelley."

Noah gave a wry smile, her heart finally at ease. She got up and prepared some fruit tea in the kitchen to replenish her energy, then left the room and headed straight for the southern district.

As dawn broke, the streets of Snow Eagle City began to bustle with activity.

Noah was in the South District when he spotted Shelley from afar. She was wearing a long-sleeved button-down top and light black tights, with a mage's staff and a water bottle tied around her waist, looking every bit the novice adventurer.

Shelley began to jog slowly on the cobblestone path, slightly out of breath, with beads of sweat on his nose and forehead.

"Good morning, Shelley. You're exercising so early. I just got a new batch of southern fruits. Would you like to try some?"
