Chapter 142: Oh? Princess Teddy Bear!
As I was walking towards the janitor.“Excuse .”Soone grabbed first.
A person with a neat white bob and sunglasses on top of their head.Marceline, the head of the Marceline Trading Company. Or rather, the vampire Maiev who was disguised as Marceline.“I was just about to call you. You ca at the right ti.”
“…Is that a complint? Anyway, I’m here.”Maiev handed a heavy bag of docunts.I didn’t need to look inside to know what they were.
They contained the black magic ritual research of the girl vampire I had stuffed, and the status of the investors I had managed.“Did you finish?”
“Do you think I would bring sothing that’s not done?”Our eyes t in the air. Maiev swallowed a sigh and coughed three tis.
“Anyway, I did as you ordered.”As I received the bag from Maiev, the janitor spoke up.“Are you… that student from back then?”His eyes, which had been staring at Maiev’s face in awe, were now fixed on .I stared back at him without answering.He seed to confirm his suspicion, as he pointed at with his index finger.“That’s right. You’re the young man who cleaned the bathroom because of your low grades, right? It’s really you!”“You recognized sohow.”I answered calmly. Maiev blinked her eyes in disbelief.“Oh, I almost didn’t recognize you. I read the newspaper and wondered if it was really you… You’ve beco quite a person now.”His words towards had beco polite. This was also a proof of my achievent.“Back then, I had no reputation, no sense, and a bad mood that day─.”He went on to praise for a while. And then, at so point.“I’m so sorry for touching your head back then. I was so ignorant and made a big mistake!”“…!”Maiev’s eyes looked like they were about to pop out of her face.“Don’t worry about it.”I said without much thought.I didn’t care about what happened with the janitor in the first place.
I was only interested in the cleaning tools he had in his hands.
“But, can I borrow those?”“What? Oh, you an these?”The janitor lifted up the bucket and the mop he was holding.
I nodded quietly.“You want to use these dirty things… Please wait a mont. I’ll bring you new ones.”
“There’s no need for that.”
I took them with my telekinesis.
The janitor gasped in admiration and bowed several tis before leaving.Now, it was just and Maiev.She was the first to break the silence.
“Is that true? You got hit on the head?”“It happened.”“I’m speechless with shock.”Maiev couldn’t help but laugh. She slapped her cheeks with her palms.
“You cleaned the bathroom because of your low grades. You even got hit by the janitor. Wow.”I handed her a piece of paper.“I’ll be staying at Fritz’s mansion for a while. Finish everything written here.”“Leave it to . I’ll do it as cleanly as you clean the bathroom.”Maiev kept laughing.
She looked happy for so reason.
She even humd a tune.I observed her expression leisurely.I gave her the bucket, the mop, and the detergent I had held with my telekinesis.“You do it.”
“…”Maiev blinked her eyes three tis.And then, her head slowly tilted.“…?”She tried to say sothing, but closed her mouth. She just looked at the mop in her left hand, the bucket in her right hand, and my face alternately.“I was a bit rude.”
“Yes.”
“I’ll reflect on it. I won’t do it again.”
“Then do it as a sign of reflection.”In the end, Maiev slamd the mop into the bucket with a bang.
“I’ll do it. I’ll do it. I’m doing it, okay…”She turned around with her shoulders and head drooping.
She was good at acting pitiful.I called her back once.
“Maiev.”
“…Yes?”
Maiev turned his head toward right away. His face was full of anticipation.
“No magic is allowed when cleaning.”
“Sigh.”
◈
The next morning.
The representatives of the magic departnt headed to the mansion of the von Fritz estate, where Trixie was born and raised.
The von Fritz family’s estate was a good land.
First of all, the land was fertile, and the roads were well built, so the way was not rough at all.
“I didn’t think I’d have to bring you myself…”
Trixie grumbled.
The compromise for the visit was quite easy.
They only had to give the ‘belt of Mr. Guidance’ in exchange for permission to visit the mansion.
“Let emphasize a few things again. Listen carefully.”
Trixie opened his mouth again toward Flan.
“First of all, the reason why they allowed the visit is because my dad would never approve of this matter.”
“Then we don’t need the belt.”
“Absolutely not.”
There was a mont of silence.
“…And second, if my dad says no, you have to give up cleanly. No backtracking.”
“I will.”
On the long way, Trixie emphasized this story more than ten tis.
In other words, Flan answered her more than ten tis.
It was then.
“Hey, isn’t that it? That!”
Becky pointed to a mansion with her index finger.
A large mansion ca into the group’s sight.
They all stared at the building.
The cool size and the white color that was not stained, the flawless exterior told the status of the von Fritz family itself.
“Wow… How do you live in such a spacious place?”
Trixie did not answer anything.
On the other hand, Becky’s eyes kept shining.
It was already the look of admiring an artwork, not a lodging.
“I’m more curious about the inside. Can we just go in?”
As Becky walked around, looking around, Trixie sighed deeply and stopped Becky.
“Where the hell are you going?”
“Oh, is it rude to walk ahead of the mansion owner?”
“That’s not it, the direction is wrong.”
“Direction?”
Trixie pointed to a completely different direction with her chin.
The group’s eyes naturally followed it.
“There’s nothing there.”
Becky scratched her head.
At the end of Trixie’s index finger, there was only a huge wall.
Wall, wall, wall, nothing but wall… It was only after a long ti that he realized that it was a door.
The door had a large emblem of the von Fritz family, a jasmine.
“…”
Becky rubbed her eyes with her hand.
The wall that rose so high that it couldn’t even fit in her sight, and the building that rose even higher above it.
It was sothing closer to a castle than a mansion.
Becky, who looked back and forth between the majestic sight and Trixie several tis, finally opened her lips.
“Is this it?”
“Yeah.”
“This is it?”
“Yes.”
Becky lost her words and barely pointed to the mansion she first found.
It seed huge when she first saw it, but now it looked just small.
“Then what is that…?”
“Where the maids live.”
“…”
Even Louis, who was always calm, couldn’t hide his surprised face this ti.
The stunned pupils turned to Trixie.
Trixie, who received the gaze on her body, snorted.
Becky’s mouth was open as if her jaw would fall off.
“If I beco a maid, can I live there…?”
“You won’t even be accepted as a maid.”
“I was just purely curious, okay? I have no intention of working under you.”
In this commotion, only one person.
Flan kept his silence without a sound.
He looked at Trixie and asked her one thing.
“Is this mansion certain?”
“I told you.”
“Then it’s done.”
Flan only looked at the front door with a blank stare.
“Soone is coming out.”
The mont Flan muttered that.
The huge door opened and a woman with a fierce impression ca out.
“This is the von Fritz’ mansion. How dare you make a fuss in front of it.”
The maid uniform and the golden pin on her chest were no different from Judith’s, so Flan imdiately recognized that she was the head maid.
The head maid of the von Fritz mansion glared at the group from the magic departnt with a sharp look.
And finally, when she spotted Trixie.
“Oh… Oh? Princess Teddy Bear!”
The head maid bowed very respectfully.
“Princess! My goodness, you’ve beco even more beautiful since I last saw you. I’m amazed every ti!”
Becky whispered to Flan as she watched the scene.
“Princess… Did she just call her ‘Princess Teddy Bear’?”
“It seems so.”
The head maid gently stroked Trixie’s hand.
“You didn’t overdo it, did you? I’m always worried that your delicate skin might get burned by the flas.”
Becky whispered again.
“What do you think, Flan. Did Trixie overdo it?”
“Not at all.”
“…We can hear you. You guys.”
Trixie shivered and glared at the rest of the group. But the head maid seed oblivious to the reactions around her.
Soon, other maids also ran out and surrounded Trixie in a circle.
“It’s Princess Teddy Bear! You’re still so cute!”
“Oh, Princess!”
They clapped and cheered as if they were greeting a real princess.
“Princess Teddy Bear! What brought you back here?”
“Calm down. Head maid, please calm down…”
Trixie blushed and tried to calm them down.
But the maids’ love for ‘Princess Teddy Bear’ continued for a long ti, and it was only after a while that the head maid paid attention to the other group.
“Princess, but who are these people?”
“They’re the representatives of the magic departnt. I have sothing to see here.”
“Oh!”
The head maid finally greeted them politely.
“What an honor to have such distinguished guests visit us!”
The head maid wiped her eyes with a handkerchief.
“I was so worried that the cold princess wouldn’t make any friends… I’m so touched.”
“…Don’t say unnecessary things.”
“I understand, Princess. So, what is it that you want to see in the mansion?”
Everyone’s eyes turned to Flan.
He answered without any hesitation.
“I’m thinking of destroying this mansion.”
