Clara knew today was the day Ireya was joining the Double Rest Sect, because Li Yu and Tom had been busy with preparations for several days before, and the Dark Hound Guards had been fully deployed, vanishing early in the morning.
The little maid heard that many of them would disguise themselves as ordinary villagers and blend into the crowd to capture any assassins that might appear.
Moreover, Li Yu had brought back a magical stick from the Divine Country, which humd when near any tal object, and said he planned to use it to detect weapons.
But before that, Clara had played with it for a while, testing all the ornants in the house, which was quite interesting.
Besides that, Li Yu had deployed all the Three-eyed Divine Birds, and when he himself left the house, he also took the iron mount that would beep incessantly.
Clara initially wanted to go and watch the excitent too, but having seen the initiation ceremony no fewer than a hundred tis before, and with Adelle not being there, the ceremonies had mostly been led by her and Hera, listening to "The Beautiful Jasmine Flower" to the point of annoyance.
Considering that the territory of the Double Rest Sect was so distance from Teacup Castle and that Li Yu’s new mount was not too comfortable to ride, the little maid eventually dismissed the idea.
After Li Yu and the others left, she first went to the yard to add so food for Xiao Wa.
The longer Clara kept him, the more she couldn’t help but marvel at the magic of the little frog.
He would leave the house every day on his own, she didn’t know where he went, but he always ca back with various novel trinkets.
These items were all collected by the little maid, and Li Yu would select the useful ones each ti he returned.
But actually, the ones temporarily useless were also quite interesting.
For example, a small wooden doll, Clara found one ti while cleaning that it could be unscrewed, and inside was hidden another small doll, and that small doll could also be unscrewed, inside which was an even smaller doll...
Driven by curiosity, Clara kept twisting, and eventually, she twisted out seven dolls at once!
Apart from this magical wooden doll, the little maid had also seen a very noisy chicken.
Whenever it was touched, it would scream, and the more it was touched, the louder and more tragic the screams. Once, when Clara accidentally stepped on it, she was so startled that she thought she had hurt it and had earnestly apologized to it.
Later, upon asking Li Yu, Clara learned that the chicken’s purpose was just to emit screams.
"But it screams, then what?"
"There’s nothing after that," Li Yu said.
"So it was made just to scream?" the little maid was puzzled.
"That’s right."
"Well... That’s really a pathetic thing."
"Not really, it’s actually ant to be a toy."
"For those who enjoy tornting others to play with?" the little maid widened her eyes.
"......" Li Yu had no response.
Of course, of all the things, Clara loved the tin mouse the most, which ran around erratically whenever she wound the key-like part on its belly and placed it on the ground.
If left to her own devices, Clara could play with the tin mouse all afternoon.
But besides the weekends, the little maid truly didn’t have much ti to play as she had already graduated from Universal Language spelling, and was now quite fluent in Lizard People’s language, thinking her hard days would soon be over.
Li Yu had assigned her yet another task, to learn a third language.
"Divine Language?"
"Yes, the language I am speaking right now," Li Yu said. "If you master it, you could beco the Chief Clerk of the Double Rest Sect."
"Chief Clerk sounds quite impressive," the little maid blinked, "what does that involve?"
"Mainly translating so of the Divine Country’s docunts and spreading the fla of knowledge."
"Wow! That sounds like too much responsibility for ."
"Why do you say that?"
"Prophet, don’t you always say I can’t sit still? Besides, I think my current life is pretty good, and you need soone to clean and handle miscellaneous tasks for you, right? I can just do that."
"The salary for a Chief Clerk is very high, one Gold Coin a week, and depending on your performance, there could be additional bonuses," Li Yu persuaded gently.
"That much money?" Clara was surprised, but then added, "Let’s leave it to soone who needs it... After all, being with you, I don’t have to worry about having enough food or clothes; having too much money is pointless for ."
Seeing that the financial incentive was ineffective, Li Yu had no choice but to play his trump card, "If you beco a Chief Clerk, you would also get an extra half-day of rest each week."
?!!
"I have thought about it again, and I feel like I am quite suitable for the role," the little maid imdiately changed her mind.
Since then, she had started to study Chinese with Li Yu.
However, this morning Li Yu was away, and after feeding the Eco-friendly Frog, Clara had only written for a while before she couldn’t resist slacking off again.
First, she ran out to set up the solar panels for charging. Then, she went to the windmill mill to collect a fully charged battery.
In short, anything but studying was fair ga.
The little maid was contemplating whether to clean a bit later when suddenly, there was a frantic knocking at the door.
Clara opened the door to find the chubby Xie Wei standing outside.
Xie Wei was the shoemaker’s son and his family had just moved to Green Field not long ago. They were devout followers of the Double Rest Sect, always arriving first for the Monk’s sermons and sitting in the front row every ti.
Noticing the anxious expression on Xie Wei’s face, the little maid asked, "What’s wrong?"
"It’s my mom, she’s been having stomach troubles and diarrhea non-stop since the day before yesterday, and now she’s almost dehydrated and about to lose consciousness," the chubby boy said with a grievous face.
"Oh, then you should go find Adelle or Hera, they can save your mom." Clara was quick to respond, but then realized that both of them might not be on the territory of the Double Rest Sect at the mont.
Xie Wei seed very urgent, as if he couldn’t wait another second.
So the little maid rembered that there might be so Divine dicine left by Li Yu at her ho that might be useful.
Knowing the urgency of saving soone, she didn’t hesitate and quickly found a strip of Amoxicillin to give to Xie Wei, "Take this back to your mom quickly."
The chubby boy was extrely grateful, but instead of leaving right away, he hesitated and then said to Clara, "Miss Clara, could you co with ? I... I don’t know how to administer the Divine dicine."
