Although this thing is not very useful, it can only be used as a record.

"...Um...thank you so much...could I have another one?"

Before she knew it, Mine had finished the piece in her hand and was eyeing the rest of his bag with longing.

Although she knew it was embarrassing, she was still hungry.

If possible, she would like to eat until she is stuffed, so that she won't have to eat for the next few days.

However, the ideal is full, and the reality is very skinny.

"No."

Mahiro directly refused her request and explained, "It's not that I won't give you any. Even if I give you this bag, I can give you ten more bags as well, no problem."

I'm not giving it to you because you look like you've been starving for a long time. If you eat too much at once, you could easily stuff yourself to death.

You don't want to die from overeating, do you? Let me tell you, people who die from overeating always look extremely gruesome..."

Hearing him describe it so vividly, Mine's face turned ashen, and she shook her head repeatedly to indicate that she didn't want to eat anymore and was already full.

"Well, that's right."

Mahiro was very satisfied with the girl's attitude.

Then he continued:

"Now that we've eaten the bread, let's get down to business."

Upon hearing that they were talking about serious matters, Mine's expression changed, and her face turned pale.

She immediately got up and quickly backed away. Even when she accidentally fell into a mud puddle, she tried her best to inch backward, hoping to get as far away from him as possible.

"No, am I really that scary?"

Shinji stroked his chin, a strange look in his eyes.

He figured his handsome face shouldn't be scary, right?

It's understandable that he was so scared when he met Xiaochaoxia in the last world.

Why is Mine so afraid of me now that I'm here?

Although he said he didn't care, he was still saddened by seeing this reaction time and time again.

"Please...please don't hurt me."

As he was pondering, Mine had already retreated to a corner, curled up into a ball, and was only peeking out with her little head watching him.

His eyes were full of fear.

His body was trembling uncontrollably.

She knew very well that some nobles enjoyed capturing children and subjecting them to inhumane torture, treating them like toys.

Even worse, they might break limbs and use the animals to breed with dogs.

Although the older brother seemed very kind and gentle, she had witnessed too much and dared not gamble.

I just hope the other person can let me go.

Yotsuba Mahiro: "......."

He could only sigh helplessly and then walk towards the girl step by step.

No matter how the other person called out to him, he ignored them until he reached the girl and slowly squatted down.

"Why are you so afraid? I never meant to hurt you."

Mahiro knew perfectly well that this world was like a cesspool, rotten to the core, inside and out.

Therefore, when facing Mine, he also tried his best to express his goodwill.

Actually, he could just turn around and leave right now, letting fate decide. After all, according to the original story, Mine would eventually be rescued by the Revolutionary Army and become a member of Night Raid.

But he didn't want to gamble.

Who knows if his actions might inadvertently cause Mine to miss out on the Revolutionary Army and ultimately die in some street corner.

This is absolutely unacceptable.

So all he could do was try his best to comfort the girl.

"Don't be afraid, I don't mean anything by it. It's just that I'm new here and don't know any better, so I need someone to show me around."

"Of course, I'll pay."

As he spoke, Mahiro took out a heavy bag and placed it in front of the girl.

The gold coins stuffed inside the open pocket were clearly visible.

He obtained these from kind-hearted people, so it didn't matter how he spent them.

But the bag full of gold coins surprised Mine; it was the first time in her life she had ever seen so much money.

"There are about five hundred gold coins in here. If you are willing to be my guide, then this bag of gold coins is yours."

"...Five, five hundred?!"

Five hundred gold coins may not sound like a lot, but their purchasing power is extraordinary.

One gold coin is enough for a family to use for a long time.

With so many gold coins right now, they could easily buy the best house in this town, and even if they bought a dozen more slaves, they would still have a lot left over.

"How about it?"

“...I don’t need that many. Just...one will do.” Mine tentatively asked.

She naturally longed for the bag of gold coins, but she wasn't envious.

She knew very well what the consequences of greed would be.

Even a mixed-race orphan like her, carrying such a large bag of gold coins on the road, would only end up being killed and robbed.

"Is it much?"

Zhenxun stroked his chin, clearly having no concept of money.

In his mind, if he could buy Mine for 500 gold coins, it would be a huge profit.

After all, money was something external to him, let alone gold coins; he could get as much as he wanted with just a little magic.

It can be said that it is continuous.

"Since you think it's too much, then let's do this. How about you become my personal maid and housekeeper? Anyway, I don't know how to manage so much money, so why don't you help me with its allocation?"

"ah....?"

Mine was stunned.

She had considered a million possibilities, but she never expected that the person in front of her would actually hire her as a maid and housekeeper.

"...Can I really do it?"

Mine could hardly believe it.

It's not that I don't trust the other party, but rather that I don't believe I can do it well.

After all, she didn't think any nobleman would try to trick her with so many gold coins. According to the normal practice of noblemen, they should have ordered someone to forcibly take her away by now.

They would never speak to me so kindly.

And this older brother looks so handsome and kind.

If I really could...

She was willing to believe this older brother just this once.

"Of course you can, I believe you can do it."

"But... I can't do anything, not even cook. I can only do some simple cleaning."

"It's okay, I can teach you how to cook."

Makoto crouched down, bringing his eyes level with the girl's.

Try your best to appear gentle.

Then he extended his hand in invitation:

So, are you willing?

"..."

The girl pursed her cherry lips tightly, looking at the hand with hesitant eyes, as if she were making a final struggle.

Mine knew very well.

Whether what lies ahead is heaven or hell depends entirely on her choice this time.

But I'm already in purgatory, so what can I do if things get worse?

So she reached out and slowly grasped the man's hands in front of her.

"it is good...."

“Very good, my name is Yotsuba Mahiro, nice to meet you.”

"I am Mine... Please take care of me."

Her voice trembled slightly.

And her fate was rewritten amidst this trembling sound.

-------------------------------------

Fallen leaves bring a message.

Yotsuba Mahiro, now living in another world, finally gets her first loli maid.

Unlike Mibu Asaka, who was raised in a bad way and had a strong samurai vibe, she was a genuine little maid!

Although he is still very inexperienced in many aspects, I believe that everything will get better under his guidance.

However, the first step was to take her out of the alley, buy her a new set of clothes from head to toe, and then take her to the most luxurious hotel in town to book a room and help her wash up.

And you know what? The girl, cleaned up and dressed in new clothes, really did look just like Mine from my memory.

She has delicate features, and her smooth pink twin ponytails fall slowly down to her waist.

The black and white maid uniform with lotus leaf patterns on the hem looked perfectly natural on her. Her slender legs were tightly bound by thin black stockings, and she wore a pair of pure black leather shoes.

very perfect.

Although he was somewhat immature and thin, his complexion was sallow due to prolonged malnutrition.

But fortunately, it's pretty much the same.

It will heal slowly with proper care.

However, even when she wore nice clothes, Mine was still pointed at and talked about by others when she walked down the street.

"Hey, I'm not seeing things, am I? That brat should be that disgusting half-blood, right?"

"Ha, what good fortune! To be noticed by a nobleman."

"Good fortune? Not necessarily. As far as I know, those nobles are quite promiscuous. Someone like her, a mixed-race person, probably serves her master in bed and also has to serve her pets in private."

"Ugh, so dirty."

...

Some people made sarcastic remarks, some had a mocking expression, and some were like lemons, their words full of sourness.

Unwittingly, Mine heard these harsh words and involuntarily lowered her head, even slowing down her pace when following Mahiro.

Until Mahiro suddenly called out her name.

"Main."

"...Yes?! May I ask what your needs are?"

Mine nervously looked up, only to find Mahiro looking at her with a gentle smile, while a large hand landed on her head and gently stroked it.

"Mine, now that you're one of my people, remember this: from this day forward, no matter who you're facing, I will never allow you to bow your head, understand?"

"If you hear harsh words, fight back fiercely."
