Chapter 89 89. Deciding on the Candidate (Part 2)
“Okay, that’s enough.”
Evelyn knew she had found a treasure. Every Limit Breaker was a rare talent, and now the territory needed manpower to open up new land.
Lodel also realized the value of A-Ka, and thought that it was a good opportunity to exchange Zoe back, so his eyes softened a little.
Evelyn declared Aka's case valid.
"Next one, hurry up."
The pink-haired girl with a 97-point appearance came forward with her head lowered: "My name is Fiona Panier, and I volunteer to join the territory of Earl Lovey."
"Tell me why you want to stay."
"My mother, Ole, is a viscount of the Ryan Alliance. Because of the war ten years ago, the territory was occupied by the Kingdom of Dongqi. The whole family was forced into exile.
I am now eager to find a place to settle down. The food and wine here are good, and the environment is also good, so I decided to stay. ”
"If you choose us, your noble status will not be recognized."
"It doesn't matter. It's not recognized anywhere else anyway."
"Will your family agree?"
"My mother died in battle when the territory fell. Of my two sisters, the eldest is married. The second sister joined the church. They will not interfere with my choice."
Lodel looked at the girl carefully.
She was really too gorgeous. Not only her pink hair, but her light blue silk dress was also embroidered with patterns, and even her fingernails were painted with cardamom-colored nail polish.
Like a peacock dressed to the utmost, with all its clothes on display, it is far more eye-catching than its competitors.
"What talents do you have?"
"I am good at music, cooking, clothing, architecture, writing, and arithmetic."
"Not bad, could you please demonstrate your musical talent?"
"It's my pleasure."
The pink-haired girl took out a piccolo from her pocket and began to play.
The melodious music sounded very smooth and graceful. When the song ended, it was greeted with applause from the people around.
Lodel clapped her hands reluctantly.
"Fiona, congratulations on passing," Evelyn announced.
The scene gradually became quiet again, and no new people came out for a long time.
Leah's face was slightly grim. "Miss, can you relax the conditions appropriately? For example, allow me to go back to visit my family for a period of time every year. Or allow me to settle down permanently."
“Why bother?” Evelin shook her head. “These young people are very good, but they don’t like this place and their hearts are not here.”
"If I can be selected, I am willing to stay, but if I can't be selected, what's the point of me staying?" someone said.
A series of echoes, which represents the thoughts of the majority.
"Yes, even if you stay, you may not stay here for the rest of your life. The number of maids is limited, and it is obvious that I will prefer those who stay here forever." Evelyn shrugged.
This creates a paradox.
Only if you are determined to stay will you have a chance to enter the next round of selection.
Otherwise it means being eliminated.
The girls all looked unhappy. They were exhausted from the long journey, and who could be willing to quit so easily?
In her heart, Lodel admired Evelyn's solution, but she was also worried.
Even if these three people were not chosen as maids, they would most likely not leave. Especially A-Ka, he would definitely be reused.
"Miss, including these three, Master Luo Wei already has six maids around him."
“No.” Evelin shook her head. Including these three, there were only four maids.
"I'm sorry, there was an oversight in our work. We will consider paying attention to this aspect next time." Leah apologized.
There will be a next time! Luo Deer looked very unhappy: "Mom, did you calculate wrong?"
“That’s right!” Evelin asked in confusion.
"Lovi and Xiqi had agreed at the beginning that Xiqi would be counted as one of the quota. And there's Misha, so there are six people in total? Luoluo can also be one." Luodel said one more.
"A personal maid is not just a figurehead, she needs to take turns to stay by her master's side every day, serving his daily life and taking care of some of the security matters.
Miss, you have to decide based on the actual situation. After you choose, bring it to me." Leah reminded.
Evelyn turned her gaze to Lodel: "What do you think?"
Luo Deer was in a dilemma. She thought of a possibility. If she didn't accept Su Ya, Aka, and Fiona, then another group of women would be sent over next year.
As the situation keeps accumulating, the number of dangerous targets around Donggang City continues to increase, and there will come a time when they can no longer be suppressed.
The only thing left now was to agree, find a way to use up all six places, and prevent Duke Dafen from interfering further.
Retreating in order to advance, that's the only way. Lodel lowered his eyes, thinking quickly about the outcome, and making the lesser of two evils choice.
"Xiqi will definitely agree. She also meets the requirements, so she counts as one."
"One more, choose Mixia or Luluo?"
"Mixia is not old enough, so she can only choose green radish."
Evelin nodded, turned to Leah and said, "The person has been chosen."
Leah then said, "I'm sorry everyone, the maid selection is over. Maybe there will be another chance in the future. Who knows?"
"Fulinbao has always been tolerant. If you are interested in staying to work, you will receive preferential benefits and can apply for annual leave to visit your family every year."
These words were almost said in vain, and the girls looked gloomy.
Evelin also knew that she couldn’t keep anyone, so she didn’t hold any expectations: “Back off.”
"If I stay and accidentally get pregnant, will you let me leave?" someone asked in a shocking way.
“This…” Evelin’s eyes flickered. Logically, she should have immediately scolded him for being insolent, but because she had done similar things before, she felt guilty and couldn’t speak.
"Very interesting, do you think you have a chance?" Lodel snorted.
"Who knows." The girl smiled confidently. She had had many suitors before, but she felt that none of them were worthy of her.
Even though there are more women than men and the ratio is very different, some people are unwilling to lower their requirements.
Therefore, scenes like traveling thousands of miles to find a husband and going to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures would happen repeatedly.
"Yes, if you can do it." Evelin promised generously. In fact, she had already thought of a countermeasure.
People can leave, but children must stay.
Given the family heritage, it’s no wonder she’s mean.
Everyone was a little excited, and several girls who thought they were quite capable looked at each other secretly.
"Mom, don't you think this is ridiculous?" Lodel said angrily.
“A little bit.” Evelin looked away guiltily, feeling as if she had caused her son a lot of trouble.
Who could have thought that a group of evil forces could threaten the purity of the lord? As their eyes met, an unspoken agreement was reached.
Those who have come all the way here have an obsession with reproduction. Some have even abandoned their face and dignity.
Just like Evelin did in the past, as long as she finds an opportunity, she won’t care about anything else.
How can I leave easily without getting any benefits?
