About the time I was picked up and adopted by Tallulah

Most people, upon entering the restaurant, would first see a green film-type 'girl' wearing a maid outfit with very plump breasts that looked like steamed buns were stuffed inside. Although her mannerisms weren't awkward, they exuded a strange sense of childishness.

Afterwards, the guests would notice the young butler standing next to the maid. He was dressed in ordinary clothes, but his hospitality, smile, and temperament made it hard to look away.

This combination looks weird at first glance, but it's not unacceptable, and—

"Although I don't think she's a good match for Xiosta...but this maid is very cute and has a lot of style."

The guests all made similar exclamations.

"Look, Kal'tsit, everyone is praising you!"

A plate of Orsen said happily to Kel'tsit. The praise from everyone, coupled with Orsen's pure joy, made Kel'tsit blush at first, looking away and saying, "I also know a thing or two about how a maid serves guests."

"Hey, then let's work hard, Miss Hei too, please keep up the good work! I'll come over to help during the cooking process, and Miss Hei can just handle the less complicated steps."

Orson smiled and nodded to the maid Flin and the killer Flin.

"...I don't know how I can help, but I'll do my best, Orson."

Hei nodded in response, and she gradually gained some new understanding of the question that had arisen in her mind when she first met Orson - "Why can you smile so easily in the sunshine?"

As for Kal'tsit, the old lynx calmed down a little.

No matter what, Orson is here now, and there is a female Filin beside him who seems to have been almost tamed. In this case, he must show his best, calm and perfect side in this situation.

Kal'tsit thought so, and then she worked hard to run the restaurant with Orson and Hei.

About 20 minutes later—

"Shift change."

"...?"

Because of her good knife skills, Hei, who was helping to cut vegetables in the kitchen, was stunned for a moment. It took him a few seconds to realize that it was Kal'tsit who was talking to him.

At the beginning, Kal'tsit was too assertive and said, "Let me be the one to welcome guests with Orson." Although Hei also hoped to cooperate with Orson in a more "intimate" way, he did not reject Kal'tsit's proposal.

However, this lynx had not been receiving guests outside for long before it returned to the kitchen with an unhappy look on its face and asked to switch shifts with Hei.

"Dr. Kelsey, what do you mean—"

"Literally, a shift change. You also want to work more closely with Orson, right?"

Kal'tsit asked Hei while pulling the collar of her maid uniform to dissipate heat.

"I... am just following the eldest lady's arrangements."

In response to Kal'tsit's words, Hei seemed a little guilty.

"It's all right. Let me take care of this. You go out and serve the dishes."

Kal'tsit waved her hand and took the kitchen knife. Although Hei was still a little confused, he didn't say anything more, but walked from the kitchen to the restaurant.

"The maid is missing?" "Wow! Isn't this the director of the Security Bureau!?" "Why is he here... Could it be possible?" "Is this true?"

With Hei's arrival, there was another commotion in the restaurant. Although Hei, who was in the center of the commotion, had a look of discomfort on her face, she quickly put that emotion behind her.

"Miss Hei? Did Kal'tsit ask you to help?"

Orson, who was not far away, was pouring wine for the guests and asking curiously.

"Yeah, that's right."

Hei responded in this way, and at the same time decided to take this opportunity to get a little closer to Orson.

Of course, if you think about it from Hei's own perspective, this is not the "meaningless emotional fluctuations between the opposite sexes". In order to be able to get closer to Orson, he wants to have a clearer understanding of the boy's way of dealing with the world.

In a word, you are deceiving yourself.

Although his identity was recognized by so many people and his identity had to be greatly contrasted, Hei was still very seriously prepared to help.

About 20 minutes later——

"Shift"

"No"

The expressions on the faces of the two Filins in the kitchen were very subtle. Hei's expression was a little embarrassed and angry, while Kal'tsit, who was controlling Mon3tr to cut potato chips, had an expression of "I knew it".

"Um... what's going on? Why aren't you guys helping? I can't serve the guests ahead by myself."

Orson leaned half of his body into the kitchen and asked the two men in confusion why they ran away after working for a short time.

"...This humiliation is greater than I imagined, if I must explain why."

"Eh?"

Orson was shocked. He was just receiving guests with the other party normally, so how could he be considered "humiliated"?

Unlike Orson who was confused about the situation and a little panicked, Kal'tsit nodded as if she felt the same way after hearing Hei's words.

"You really don't know why, Orson?"

Seeing that Orson really seemed confused as to why neither Kal'tsit nor Hei wanted to continue, the Queen Mother sighed.

"Orson, when we were receiving guests together just now, did you pay attention to what they said?"

Hei asked in a low voice, while Orson shook his head.

"I didn't pay much attention—"

"Butler! Our dishes haven't arrived yet?"

Orson's words were drowned out by the shouts of the guests in the restaurant lobby.

"It will be ready soon, please wait a moment!"

Orson responded immediately, but the calls did not subside. Instead, they became more and more frequent:

"Butler! Can you pour me a glass of water?"

"Dear waiter, I want to order more!"

"Little brother, can you help feed big sister~?"

"Hehehe, cute boy, hehehe..."

"..."

Listening to these people's increasingly outrageous speeches, Orson gradually understood what Black Finger meant by "humiliation".

"You should have noticed, Orson. We're both serving customers, but the whole time, those customers were just looking at you. It made me... well, normally I wouldn't mind such trivial things, but... being defeated by a boy in terms of femininity makes even me a little unhappy."

Hei whispered, and Kelsey beside him nodded and said +1

Of course, Kal'tsit is more upset than Hei. After all, Hei's "character setting" has only changed, and her outfit of hot pants and tactical vest has never changed.

But I had to put on a maid outfit! You know, this kind of clothing is like a "final battle weapon" in Ursus, but in the end, I was still brutally killed by Orson...

"I'm sorry, I didn't actually think about showing off in this regard... I just hope to do my best to provide good service every time."

Orson apologized to the two of them with some trouble, but this apology only highlighted that the status of Orson, the winner of the "First Xiosta Most Popular Deacon Special Award (a competition established a few minutes ago)", was too different from the two of them.

"Oh, never mind... the guests are probably getting impatient. There's nothing I can do, but let me do it."

Kal'tsit summoned back M3, who had just finished cutting the vegetables and was rubbing against Orson, then sighed and prepared to continue welcoming the guests.

"How about this - Miss Hei, Kel'tsit, you guys take care of the reception and I'll take care of the cooking?"

Orson made a suggestion that sounded quite scientific.

If my presence would cause Black and Kal'tsit to question my femininity (although these two don't have much femininity to begin with... Black is obviously more of a boyfriend, and as for Kal'tsit... it's probably gravity), then wouldn't it be better to just let them receive the guests?

“Hmm—” “It seems acceptable.”

Kal'tsit and Hei looked at each other and both thought that this suggestion was not bad.

----------

"That's how it went on... Miss Hei and Kel'tsit were welcoming guests normally at first, but then Kel'tsit couldn't keep up her maid demeanor anymore. The guests' reactions actually got better. Miss Hei was too lazy to pretend to care about others anymore, and the guests became even more enthusiastic—"

"Eventually, they even started competing with each other to see how many satisfied customers they received, and then... well, it became what it is now."

Because the food had been consumed early, the seaside restaurant was now closed. Sitting at a table in the corner of the empty restaurant, Orson awkwardly explained the whole story to Ceylon, then pointed at Kal'tsit and Hei, who lay motionless on the table.

"I have more people... the bodyguards of the Dolkos family..."

Even though Kal'tsit's tail and ears had drooped as if they had melted, she still firmly stated that she won.

“…I object.”

Hei was no less impressive, lying on the table and swearing softly.

Tonight, most of the masochists in Xiosta were attracted here.

After a short rest, everyone finally returned to their normal state. Kal'tsit changed into her dried clothes, and Hei put on his transparent raincoat again, transforming back into his cold and sharp personal bodyguard.

Although their appearance seemed to have returned to normal, both Kal'tsit and Hei's faces still had a "crimson afterglow" that was somewhat inconsistent with their own personalities.

"This is really... dark, how are you feeling today?"

Ceylon lamented that his original plan had gone awry to this extent because of Kal'tsit's intrusion, and then asked whether Hei's relationship with Orson had become closer.

"..."

Hei didn't respond. Perhaps his brain went into a protective shutdown after he figured out what he had done before.

"Ahahaha... everyone should be very happy, right Kal'tsit?"

Orson tried to smooth things over with a smile and asked Kal'tsit about it.

Kal'tsit glared at Orson fiercely, as if she was about to bite him.

"...Once my Class A amnesiac is developed, the second area for testing will be the people here."

"Don't research something so dangerous... By the way, who will be the first experimental target?"

Orson asked Kal'tsit out of curiosity, but when Orson noticed that the lynx was looking at him with a red face, he tactfully stopped asking.

All I can say is that it's a good thing that Kal'tsit had Orson use the tuner in advance to block these people's cell phone signals. At least in the short term, videos like [Rhodes Island leader's maid having group sex with a cool and mature lady.@vi] won't spread.

"Ahem, I'm really sorry. I didn't expect my actions to cause such a big stir... Actually, I just hope that Hei and Orson can become more familiar with each other, because I want Hei to go to Rhodes Island to treat her oripathy - yes, Hei is actually an infected person."

At this point, Ceylon could only tell the two of them his purpose, including Hei's identity.

Fortunately, neither Kal'tsit nor Orson reacted much to Black's identity as an "infected person". They just nodded calmly.

"I'm worried that Hei wouldn't want to go to a medical facility like Rhodes Island, but if that's not possible, Dr. Kal'tsit—could you contact the Reunion Movement?"

"Reunification Movement?"

Kelsey raised an eyebrow.

"Yes, I've looked up a lot of news about Rhodes Island before, and I discovered that your company has always been closely associated with a security firm called the Reunion Movement. You two must be partners with a very close relationship, right? Hei has always been my bodyguard, and I believe she has the ability to work for the Reunion Movement. And that way... she should also be able to receive treatment for her oripathy in Rhodes Island, right?"

Ceylon expressed his thoughts, and Hei, who was standing beside him, widened his eyes after hearing this.

"Miss, I..."

"I know you'll definitely refuse, Black. Because you're my best protector, the knight who will always be by my side—but it shouldn't be like this...! I'd rather you cure your oripathy!"

"..."

Hei wanted to say something, but she moved her lips but no sound came out.

"Even if you keep relying on medication to suppress your oripathy, these methods can only delay it... Oripathy isn't some trivial illness that can be curbed by simply going to bed early and getting up early and exercising! If you keep going like this, your condition will only get worse."

"I...actually, I've always known, Miss. I've always been aware of how much effort you've put into infecting me."

Hei looked at the Liberi girl in front of him who was a little 'angry' with him and smiled faintly.

Orson said that he and Kal'tsit had a "mutually supportive" relationship. He was able to smile like that because he had someone who supported him.

In fact, hadn't Ceylon always been supporting him? It's just that her support was more gentle, that's all.

"After this Obsidian Music Festival is over, I'll ask the Reunion if they're still recruiting operators, Miss."

"--black!"

Ceylon was delighted to see that her 'guard (sister)', who she had thought would remain stubborn as always, had agreed to her request.

Just as the bond between the sisters and the master and servant grew tighter—

"I see. So when are you free to interview for the Reunion Movement?"

"Eh?"

Kal'tsit's words stunned Ceylan.
