Aqua’s bold behavior scared Adam so much that he quickly ran out of the study.
Why did things turn out this way?
That idiot was better when she was just being stupid. Suddenly doing something so unacceptable made him feel deeply uncomfortable.
He arrived at the corridor. Sunlight poured through the windows onto him, enveloping his entire body in warmth.
After enjoying the brief midday winter sunlight, Adam realized just how exceptionally clean the lord’s mansion had become. The floor reflected light, the windows were transparent, not a speck of dust was in sight, and everything sparkled.
Were those people playing the role of maids really this professional?
With doubt and surprise, Adam walked from the second floor down to the first floor hall.
Just as he came down the stairs, he noticed a maid polishing the floor. She wore a yellow maid’s short skirt with lace-trimmed garters, kneeling gently on the ground.
Her raised posterior nearly touched the floor, and her round curves faced directly toward him, unconsciously swaying.
Now, Adam only needed to lower his head slightly to see the mysterious region. And so he looked.
Soldier: Reporting, sir, it’s black!
Commander: Even the kitchen staff saw it!
Instinctively turning his head toward the ceiling, he discovered that the roof had also been polished until it gleamed, and he marveled at their professionalism.
He suppressed his gradually quickening heartbeat, not allowing his blood to rush downward and cause him to do something inappropriate.
They were doing this on purpose! It’s a trap! He absolutely couldn’t act impulsively!
After repeatedly warning himself and briefly adjusting, he regained his composure.
He approached her side. She was dressed in a maid uniform with visible sweat on her forehead and slightly flushed cheeks, as if completely immersed in her duties.
Wasn’t she supposed to be a noble young lady?
"Darkness, take a break." Adam said instinctively, seeing how hard she was working, so he wanted to let her rest.
"Eh...? A-Adam?! No, that’s wrong... I should call you Lord!" Darkness seemed quite surprised by his arrival, but after her surprise, she immediately realized her mistake in how she addressed him.
However, unlike typical maids, she wasn’t terrified, but instead began fantasizing in her mind.
"Huff, ha-ha... ha! As a maid, I dared to call the lord by his name... This is clearly an unforgivable mistake! Adam, you must be thinking about how to punish me right now! ...Like tying me up, and then using methods and that to punish me. Even if I beg for mercy, you wouldn’t forgive me, would you, Adam!
And then I slowly... Ha, haha... ha. How wonderful—!"
"That was too long! And I don’t have those kinds of thoughts at all!" Adam instinctively retorted.
He should have been used to it by now, but Darkness would fall into delusions regardless of the situation, and no matter how much he wanted to get used to it, he couldn’t.
Unless one was a pervert like her, it would be impossible to understand her thought process.
"I just wanted to lighten your burden, that’s why I thought of hiring maids."
"Adam is obviously lying!"
Darkness asserted with absolute certainty that he was lying about thinking of them, and she had even ’confirmed’ his true purpose in hiring maids.
"...It’s that, isn’t it?"
"Adam, you’re hiring maids because you want to build a huge harem of maids! To hide your shameful inner self, you’re using the idea of building a maid corps as a cover for your true intentions. But in reality, just like other depraved nobles, you want to build a harem of various beautiful girls!
And then every day... We are your targets too, aren’t we! Even if you say you’re thinking of us, you’ll still do this and that, won’t you!"
She spoke with such certainty, as if what she said was truly Adam’s real purpose.
"This and that... I see, so that’s what you think, Darkness." Adam sat on the sofa, looking at her still half-kneeling on the floor, his face taking on a dangerous, malicious smile, "Darkness, you are my maid... right?"
"Then, stand up and come in front of me... you are not allowed to refuse, this is your master’s order."
"Huh?" Darkness became bewildered, not understanding what he suddenly wanted to do, but she instinctively stood up and walked in front of him.
"Grab your skirt with both hands."
Adam issued the command, and she complied.
"Then... lift it up."
"Quickly, lift it up."
"I-I... y-you... Adam..." Obviously, Darkness hadn’t expected him to give her such an embarrassing order.
To actually make her lift it up... and in front of Adam, exposing everything about herself!
With a flushed face, Darkness’s rigid body trembled uncontrollably, yet she hadn’t fulfilled his command.
"Li-lift it up... something like that... I-I..."
"Quickly! Don’t make me say it a second time, lift it up!" Adam knew that the more embarrassed she was, the more excited she became.
Just looking at her flushed face with an expression of feigned reluctance, he could tell. So he continued to urge her, forcefully compelling her to lift her skirt.
"Darkness, you’re my maid, right? If you’re a maid, shouldn’t the master’s orders be absolute?"
"Didn’t you just say, ’The maid corps is something I deliberately formed to hide my true intentions’? Did you forget what you just said?"
Adam gave her no chance to refuse. Using her own words against her, he made this constantly fantasizing perverted crusader squirm uncontrollably.
But, even so! Her hands slowly tightened!
And then! Little by little, she lifted!
"P-please look..." The girl slowly lifted, revealing everything about herself.
Her not-so-obvious six-pack abs, her not-quite-slender waist, and her long legs. Most importantly... The girl with raised hands and a blushing face allowed him to appreciate the beautiful scenery.
I’m absolutely high with excitement!
But unexpectedly, Darkness couldn’t hold on any longer. Her legs weakened, and she fell in front of Adam.
However, he had no intention of letting her go. Cupping her pretty face with both hands, his eyes filled with passionate gaze as he looked at her, wanting to convey his feelings.
And Darkness, with misty eyes, seemed to have already immersed herself in the moment.
Unconsciously leaning in, arms embracing, her lips murmuring the man’s name.
"Adam, Adam... mmm, mmm... mmm."
There was no gentleness, but rather a hint of forcefulness and wildness.
