Having just finished a practice match, Rudy went to the side to take a break.
In fact, he had little interest in this kind of combat practice.
After all, in his opinion, these newbies were really bad.
Even sparring with him didn't improve his strength at all.
Perhaps fighting against Esther would be better.
This will help train his combat awareness.
"Young Master Rudy, have some water."
Michelle saw Rudy walk to the side, and she also finished her sword practice with Ariel. She took a bottle of water out of her bag and handed it to him.
"Thanks."
Rudy thanked him, opened the bottle, and drank.
Ariel also came here.
She glanced at Rudy, who was drinking water, and seemed slightly lost in thought.
"What's wrong, Ariel?"
Rudy noticed that she was staring at him, so he asked her a question.
Ariel bit her lip, but ultimately decided to speak frankly.
Being roundabout is not in her nature.
"Rudy, I want to learn the magic you taught Michelle."
"sure."
Rudy replied with a smile.
"However, there are conditions."
Ariel stared intently at him and nodded vigorously.
"I agree to everything!"
"I haven't even stated my conditions yet, and you're already not afraid of me..."
“Don’t be afraid. You’re a good person,” Ariel said confidently.
During this time, she had been secretly observing Rudy, and thus had already come to a positive conclusion.
Upon hearing this, Rudy sighed helplessly, rubbing his forehead.
"...Ariel, please don't give me the 'friend zone' card. Even if you say that, my conditions won't become any more lenient."
"Tell me your conditions, I'm open to any request."
Ariel expressed her understanding.
After all, it was such a powerful spell, capable of killing that terrifying goblin with a single blow.
How can you easily obtain something without paying a price?
Seeing Ariel's serious expression, Rudy thought for a moment and replied:
"If you want to learn my magic, the conditions are very simple."
"That is to become mine."
"A maid, or a companion with an equal contract like Michelle's, choose one."
"Let me state this first."
"Once this contract is signed, you will not be able to harm me when you use magic in the future."
As soon as she finished speaking, Ariel's pupils contracted, somewhat incredulous.
That's it?
These conditions are far too lenient.
"What do you mean 'that's all'?" Rudy scoffed, speaking with a straight face.
“Ariel, you should think this through. Once you sign the contract, you'll be on my side. No matter what I do to you, you can't hurt me. That's like selling yourself.”
"In that case, do you still want to learn my magic?"
Upon hearing this, Ariel answered him directly without even blinking.
"I choose to be a maid."
"Huh?" Rudy looked bewildered.
Michelle looked at her strangely, then couldn't help but pout and try to comfort her:
"Um, Ariel, didn't you hear me clearly? You can choose a companion contract, there's no need to be a maid."
If she could, Michelle would like to be Rudy's only maid.
What's this all about?
She went from being a maid to a companion, and now the friends she's made have become Rudy's maids.
Ariel felt a warmth in her heart at Michelle's concern.
She looked at the two of them intently and said:
“I’ve thought it through, Rudy. I want to be your maid.”
Ariel has her own little secret.
She had carefully considered becoming Rudy's maid.
Seeing the determination in her eyes, Rudy did not refuse.
He asked her to give him a drop of blood.
Subsequently, the contract was reached.
From now on, Rudy has another maid.
Uh, no, I should say companions.
Although it would be nice to have such a silver-haired loli-like beauty as a maid, Rudy had no intention of treating her as a maid, so he still signed an equal contract.
Otherwise, Michelle would probably get jealous and strongly demand that he change the contract back to a slave contract.
...
After class, Michelle took Ariel's hand and led her to a secluded corner, where she asked earnestly:
"Ariel, what are you thinking? Why do you want to be Master Rudy's maid? You clearly have better options."
Ariel pursed her lips and sighed.
"Because I want to become stronger, I want to protect Michelle."
"Huh? Protect me, why?"
Michelle was stunned by her words.
Ariel took a deep breath and opened her fair palm.
Suddenly, several colorful dots of light flew out.
Michelle's mouth dropped open.
"This is a micro-elf! Ariel, how could you..."
Ariel took her hand and said earnestly:
"Because I'm your older sister."
“We are twins, but I was taken away when I was very young, which is why you don’t know me.”
"I'm sure you've felt it too, that wonderful sense of closeness between us."
“Michelle, you and I are both half-elves.”
These words stunned Michelle, and her eyes gradually welled up with tears.
“You are…the older sister! But why has Mother never said that? And your hair color is different from mine…”
A hint of sadness flashed in Ariel's eyes at this.
"Because we are twins of half-elf, we are considered an ominous and cursed existence among the elves."
