Chereads / Mushroom family in another world / Chapter 16 - Strange servants

Chapter 16 - Strange servants

Many days have passed since Heli and Mae left. Mae still does her usual job every day, but now she can only do business in the village.

That doesn't mean she gives up, in order to continue doing business in Drakenberg she must learn magic for defense. Currently she has the two graces of Archdemon of Wrath and Archdemon of Sloth, with fire element and earth element which can also be considered offensive and defensive.

Looking at the fire burning in the palm of her hand, Mae looked at the target target, pointed her hand in that direction and released a huge fire. Mae panicked and put out the fire in her hand, but at the same time foolishly burned down a few trees near the target stele.

Mae used her hands to control the pebbles on the ground to float in the air. She tried throwing them into the water and immediately the pebbles shot straight into the water, creating a huge explosion that created a rainstorm. Temporary swelling. She also couldn't avoid getting wet.

Carefully dry yourself and the mushroom cap on your head to avoid water seeping into your body. As expected, the mushrooms' bodies are actually a bit inconvenient because they are easily affected by many things. But no matter what, reincarnating into this body could be God's will, so she doesn't want to blame anyone.

She returned to the village while thinking about what her next business plan should be, when Mae noticed under a tree something shaped like a coffin.

No kidding, it's a real coffin.

Mae imagined what the images inside were, whether it was a monster, or a vampire, or something more terrifying than that.

Turning around and looking around to see if no one was here, Mae came closer to check.

____________

[Analysis...]

[Answer: This is a box containing a magical maid doll]

[Safety level]

____________

"Maid doll? Like the robot maids in the movies?" - Mae

[Exactly, nowadays it is extremely rare to get a maid doll. Try opening it and checking]- Eri

Although I'm a little scared, if her system says it's safe, it should be okay.

Mae struggled and found the lock, which was no different from a regular suitcase lock. But when she touched it, it glowed again, causing her to step back. The suitcase's mouth was split in half and then opened in two. Inside was a girl dressed in a maid outfit, with long, silver hair. on her body proves to be a classic doll.

This doll looks very beautiful.

[The value of a maid doll can reach millions of gold]- Eri

"Why do you sound so excited?" - Mae

[Er...um...Anyway, it's best to bring it back, because this is an ownerless maid doll with no soul residing in it. Leaving it here is not a good idea]- Eri was confused

"..."- Mae

It seemed like the Eri system really wanted her to bring this back, it was the first time she heard the system's voice sound so emotional. So Mae immediately brought the box home. Thanks to her body strengthening skill, she was able to lift the box easily.

When they return to the village, Fifi and Belle are receiving a guest outside. As soon as Fifi saw Mae, she ran over with an excited expression.

"Lady Mae, we are truly sorry for not being able to do anything. That man insisted on meeting you" - Fifi

"Nice to meet you, you must be Lady Mae, the chief of this village. My name is Grayce"- Grayce

The man suddenly appeared behind Fifi, making the cat maid's ears and tail stand up in surprise, so she jumped behind Mae to hide.

"It seems like you're carrying something too heavy, right? Let me help" - Grayce

"No need, this box is very heavy!"- Mae

Ignoring Mae's words, the man lifted the box easily, much to Mae's surprise because she had to use her body strengthening skill to lift it. After that middle-aged man brought the box into the inn for Mae. She asked the Eri system to analyze the person in front to see if that person was dangerous.

____________

[Analyzing...]

[Result: Normal person]

[There are no signs of abnormalities or disguised magic]

____________

'That's so absurd! You don't have a virus or something, do you?'- Mae thought

[...Do you really think I'm susceptible to virus errors? Are you serious?]- Eri

Hearing that voice, it seemed like the Eri system was a bit annoyed by her question, maybe she shouldn't say that to her system like that.

"Erm...let me ask, what is a gentleman like you doing here?"- Mae

Grayce turned his eyes to Mae and then handed her a letter with a special wax seal.

Mae took the letter from the man's hand.

She brought it up to her office to read the letter. Meanwhile, Grayce was downstairs with two maids who were staring at him. The middle-aged man looked around the inn, then gently wiped his finger on the sofa, then checked the glasses placed on the shelves.

Grayce turned his eyes towards the two maids.

"Let me ask, what kind of tea does Madam Mae drink regularly?" - Grayce

"Lady Mae seems to have never had the habit of drinking tea before" - Belle

"What about sweets for snacks?" - Grayce

"Neither" - Fifi shook her head

"That's not possible. Although Madam Mae is a monster, biologically and psychologically, Madam Mae seems to be in the middle age of a human being. And for such a person, it is necessary to be protected. pay more attention to your health" - Grayce

"How do you know Lady Mea is middle-aged?" - Fifi

"Thanks to Madam Mae's behavior and speech, you two should observe your master more. This is a basic lesson for servants" - Grayce

Grayce immediately walked into the kitchen, followed by Fifi and Belle. The man took dried herbal leaves stored in glass jars, which were herbal leaves that Mae collected while exploring. in the forest.

It seemed that Grayce knew how those leaves could be used, he immediately took some out, crushed them slightly and poured them into the teapot, then boiled a pot of hot water and poured it into the teapot. Grayce looked at his watch and waited for a moment. He poured tea into a cup and arranged it carefully and elegantly.

"Let's bring her tea now, remember to go quietly to stay polite" - Grayce

The two girls nodded and followed Grayce up to Mae's office. They gently walked to the office door and he knocked gently on the door. The echo came from inside.

"Yes, please come in!"- Mae

With the permission of the owner of the voice, Grayce and the two maids stepped inside. Mae had just finished reading the letter, then put it away and turned her eyes towards the other three people.

"Is something wrong?" - Mae

"Actually, I think Madam Mae is doing paperwork and needs some tea to enjoy" - Grayce

Mae looked very surprised, it was true that she wanted something to enjoy but she was a bit shy to say it.

"Thank you, you took the trouble to make me tea" - Mae

Grayce placed the tea tray on the table when Mae spoke.

"I have read the letter and considered the problem. You will work with Fifi and Belle. The two of them will need someone with experience like you to teach them. What do you two think?" - Mae glanced towards you. two girls

"If Lady Mae says so, I will do it. Anyway, seeing how Mr.Grayce makes tea, makes us very interested to know more!"- Fifi

"Can't miss the opportunity to learn" - Belle

"That's great, so from now on, Grayce will help the two of them" - Mae

Hearing that, the man immediately put his hand on his chest and bowed his head, just like the butler usually does.

"That's right, there's something else I need you to do. Please come out here" - Mae

Stepping out from behind the corner of the bookcase, it was the maid doll that Mae brought back, she had come back to life and could move. The maid doll approached Mae's desk.

(30 minutes ago...)

As for the matter of the box containing the robot maid, she had to solve it herself. In this magical world, technology is a very rare thing to use, and most people use magic, and There are many people who use alchemy.

If it's a piece of technology, surely her Eri system has instructions, right?

[Of course I can help you]- Eri

"I didn't expect you to appear right away!"- Mae

[There is a simpler way to fix this without having to deal with it]- Eri

"What is that way?"- Mae

Immediately a cube appeared in front of Mae, it was green and had two white eyes.

[That is, let it correct itself]- Eri

"So cute, is this what you look like? It looks like a small block of jelly" - Mae

Mae raised her hand to touch the cube, and it felt like she was touching jelly. But then she withdrew her hand because doing so was quite impolite, so she changed the subject.

"Can a robot helper repair itself?" - Mae

[Based on the shape, along with the serial number that I analyzed, this is the most perfect complete prototype] - Eri

"So how does it fix itself?" - Mae

[No need to worry about that, for me, fixing these things is a trivial matter]- Eri

Eri immediately flew inside the maid doll. Mae was curious about what the Eri system was doing in there when suddenly the doll's body glowed blue.

____________

[Crystallising to form a mana heart for the host]

[Successful confirmation]

____________

The doll's eyes immediately showed signs of moving, then the Eri system immediately flew out of the doll's body.

[It was successful, now she just needs to confirm that you are her master]- Eri

The Eri system happily disappeared, leaving behind a confused Mae. When the maid doll slowly sat up and turned her eyes towards Mae, she stepped out of her box and grabbed the hem of her skirt and bowed to Mae.

"T-0001 prototype, codename "Loya", greeting you"- Loya

"Hello...nice to meet you. My name is Mae, you look really cute, but why are you in the forest like that?"- Mae

"Report, this body has been waiting in that position for 351 years, waiting to finally meet its owner. So I hope you accept me, I will definitely do my duty well, even if must use violence to take away the lives of others" - Loya

Hearing that made Mae startled, looking at Loya who was showing signs of trembling like she was afraid. Did Loya's former owner abandon her just because she didn't complete the mission? Mae feels sorry for the maid doll, forced to do work completely beyond her abilities.

"There's no need to do things like that! You just need to do your duty and that's it! From now on, you don't need to worry about being abandoned, because I won't do that to you." you"- Mae

"The order has been confirmed, I understand. From now on I will be loyal and protect you"- Loya

Later, Grayce and the other two cat maids came to Mae's office, and she introduced Loya to them. From now on, they, as servants in the inn, take on additional work assigned by Mae.

Even though she had just recruited two new servants, Mae found that the way they guided Fifi and Belle was truly dedicated. The more she saw the two maids began to resemble the other two new maids.
