Chapter 4 - Promise

'Sigh! Forget it! I should not force such a sweet girl as an outlet of my lust.' Max changed his mind after seeing her innocent face tremble.

On a second thought, my body is extremely weak for me to do any "vigorous" activity. I should first focus on recovering from this injury and making my body a little stronger. '

'After all, now I have everything I could have wanted.' However, his thoughts trailed off again. I still can't help but think of doing something with her. '

'Its okay. She won't run away or anything. I have more than enough time for that. ' Max finally settled his thoughts.

Lilly, go and fetch some medicine to help me heal my injury faster and bring some food too. I'm starving right now!" He calmly said, with a faint smile on his lips.

"Yes! Young master, right away!" Saying this, she bowed and left his room.

Watching her leave, Max smiled as a hint of lust surfaced in his eyes. However, he quickly controlled himself again.

Thanks to my reincarnation, I have many chances to taste the forbidden fruit in this life. As the son of a Viscount, I should be able to have any woman I want. But the problem is my weak body and my lack of talent in magic, because it seems that talent in magic is regarded too highly by the people here. My status as a noble won't always guarantee enjoyment and safety. Max got lost in his thoughts. How can he live here comfortably without having everyone look down upon him due to his being weak?

"Let's take a bath first. Shall we?" Max muttered and took his sleeping robe off and went to the bathroom naked. His mind was working non-stop to find a solution.

After soaking in the huge bathtub, where four to five people can comfortably bathe together, he looked down toward his "little brother," who was standing upright with his head pointing toward the ceiling.

It seems the only part of my body that can be considered outstanding is this. It's good; at least I'll be able to thoroughly satisfy the ladies. Hehe. ' Max grinned lasciviously.

After 10 minutes, he heard Lilly's voice: "Young master, I have brought medicine and food for you."

"Okay, I'm coming out. Prepare some comfortable clothes for me." Max ordered.

"Yes, young master!" Lilly's reply was immediate.

Soon he came out with a towel wrapped around the lower part of the body.

Lilly was standing with a white silky robe and pants in her hands beside the crystal table, on which his food and medicine were placed.

Watching Max come out of the bathroom, Lilly hastily came toward him with the clothes in her hands, which he thought was something she prepared for him to wear.

Max grabbed toward them, but Lilly spoke at that moment.

"Young master, it's my duty to serve you. Let me put this robe on you." Saying this, she went behind him and started to help him put on the robe, which reached his knees.

Max was enjoying how he was treated like king here.

"Seeing this, you are so skilled in helping me wear my clothes. By any chance, do you always help me wear them?" Max asked curiously.

"Yes, young master. It has been many years since I was assigned to you, so I will help you daily in any way necessary." She replied as if it were a normal thing for her.

After putting on the robe, she came in front of Max and sat on her knees.

Max was gobsmacked by this scene. Is she going to blow me or something? When this thought crossed his mind, his 'little brother' was aroused once again and made a tent with his robe in front of her face. Lilly didn't show any reaction, but her face was turning red.

But soon she disappointed him by taking out his pajamas and helping him wear them.

Max shook his head and smiled at himself for thinking perverted thoughts. He stopped her and said, "It's okay. I'll be very comfortable in this robe. I don't need to wear any pants in my own room, right?"

Lilly looked at him strangely for a second, then nodded her head and stood up.

"Young master, please have your meal." She then proceeded to serve him food.

Max started eating. There were some meat dishes, salads, etc. It looked like he was dining in some kind of 7-star hotel. Everything was very palatable.

Once he started eating, Max even forgot about Lilly, who was standing behind him watching him eat like a barbarian who had starved for a month.

"Ohh! Lilly, come sit and eat with me. It's more than enough for us two." As he finally came to his senses, he gestured for her to sit beside him.

Lilly was startled by his sudden request but soon collected her thoughts and shook her head. "No-no, young master. As a servant, I'm not allowed to dine with my master."

"Even if it's your master's order?" Max squinted his eyes a little to show his dissatisfaction.

Lilly felt nervous seeing Lilly's expression. She then sat down after a slight hesitation.

Max patted her on the shoulder and smiled, "When it's only two of us, I want you to be comfortable around me, okay?"

Lilly was about to speak when Max put his finger on her rosy-red lips.

"Shush! This is my order. You can't disobey my command, right?" Max grinned mischievously.

"Yes, young master. I'll follow your command." Lilly reluctantly nodded.

After they had their meal together and Max took his medicine, Lilly was no longer so stiff around him.

Max started asking about her, and Lilly happily told him everything he asked. But when he asked her about her family, she became sad.

She doesn't have a family. She was living a very pitiful life before. When she was just a little girl, slave traders found her, and just when she became 14 years old, they came to Claymore Town to sell her. Fortunately, Max had found her, and, for some reason, he asked his father to buy her from them. Since then, she has been working as Max's personal maid.

When Max heard her story and saw that her mood had become depressed, he changed the topic. They then talked about random things and even started cracking some small jokes.

After chatting for some time, Max lay on the bed with his head resting in Lilly's lap. Lilly blushed at his intimate action while feeling her heart warming.

After all, no noble would treat their servant like he treated her after waking up from his coma, and even before, he never treated her badly.

Lilly, my head is aching a bit. Can you give me a massage?" He asked while caressing her silky black hair.

"Yes, young master!" She said, softly, and started massaging his temples. Max closed his eyes and quietly enjoyed the massage.

Lilly, if I want to do something with you, you are not forced to comply. Will you let me do it?" Max whispered in a soft voice.

"I-I'll do it if..." Lilly said, but hesitated to complete her sentence.

"If what?" Max asked, a little excited when he heard her confirm his question.

"If you, young master, promise to never abandon me and let me serve you until my last breath." She spoke resolutely.

Max was stunned. Does she want me to abandon her? Serve me until my last breath? Are you seriously asking me that? Who would want to abandon a beautiful girl like you?'

It's not like he didn't understand why she asked him to promise her. It was because she had lived a very miserable life until now and didn't want her last support to abandon her.

"Mm, I promise you." Max immediately promised.
