Although he got the money smoothly, Aarons was not particularly happy.

Five hundred gold coins were not a huge sum of money for a noble of the Marquis' level. At that time, the Marquis had to pay 1,500 gold coins every year to cover the financial expenditures of the cities in his territory and the supplies of the border defense corps.

But at that time, the Marquis family still had its own industries. But now these industries have long lost contact, and may even have turned to the Chamber of Commerce in Cardia.

"Master, do you think that kind of little person is not worthy of your attention?"

"How did you tell?"

"When I first reached level five, I had the same feeling as you."

On the way home, Karin, who was acting as a bodyguard, finally had the opportunity to talk to Aarons.

Aarons hadn't had much chance to chat with her these days, so she seemed a little lonely.

"If you keep your head down, you won't be able to see where the road leads. Now that you have raised your head, you won't care about the small stones on the roadside."

This seemed to be an elevation of level and vision - although Aarons did not feel that he was suitable for being a member of the powerful class, he was now indeed looking at goals higher than himself.

Those contestants who are supported by a prince or a duke are the opponents that you must defeat.

The Kingdom of Cardia, which attempts to disrupt this land, is an even more powerful and dangerous enemy.

"Is that so? I didn't realize it."

As a strong person, Karin has much richer life experience than himself, and her opinions can indeed be of some help to him.

However, even if his mentality has changed, Aarons is still very clear that he is still the kind of weak person who can be easily destroyed by simple violence.

"I still have to make myself stronger."

……

However, when Aarons and Karin returned to the door of the Marquis's mansion, he immediately saw a maid who was waiting for him quietly.

"Mr. Marquis, according to the agreement between you and His Highness, I will provide you with assistance in magic technology."

"Hello, Lord Jiangyue."

Aarons was shocked when he found that the princess's private tutor and exclusive maid actually appeared at his doorstep.

Although this woman only had the title of honorary earl, her actual status was actually higher than that of a landed noble.

So Aarons didn't dare to be negligent and his attitude was quite respectful.

"You are too polite. I am just a maid sent by Her Highness the Princess to assist you. If you intend to maintain this humble attitude all the time, it will be difficult to carry out the work in the future."

This mature woman with neat short hair and bangs, a charming face with affectionate eyes and a sweet smile, does not seem to care much about her status.

The standard black and white long apron-style maid outfit she was wearing seemed to be her recognition of her own identity.

"Oh, this is... the support you mentioned earlier, Master?"

Although Karin beside Aarons was not interested in things like identity, her expression was a little strange... as if she was alert to something, and her two erect ears were shaking constantly.

"I didn't expect that the Marquis would have such a charming attendant."

It was hard to tell whether this was flattery or sarcasm, and Aarons always felt that the atmosphere was becoming more and more right.

"Then Ms. Jiangyue... let's go inside and talk in detail."

In order not to attract other people's attention, Aarons did not stay here for too long, but took the maid and the wolf girl into the Marquis's Mansion.

However, as soon as they entered the mansion, they happened to run into Xia Ye who had just finished teaching the children.

"Master, you're back. I just happened to have something to ask... Who is this?"

"Oh, she is..."

Just when Aarons wanted to explain a little, he found that Xia Ye suddenly burst out with a strong momentum -

"...Maid? No, this calm and capable aura, as well as the peaceful attitude that can only be acquired over the years, plus the temperament that only wise people can possess..."

Before Aarons could react to what was happening, Xia Ye suddenly took off his glasses for some reason.

While revealing her devilish eyes, she suddenly swung a knife at the maid beside Aarons without any warning.

clang--

The sharp sound of metal clashing startled Aarons, but before he could react, Karin was already standing in front of him.

"Oh, what a rude reception."

Although he looks like an alien, Xia Ye's body is actually made up of the flesh and blood of a demon close to level seven.

Even if she cannot release fighting spirit, her body has a strength far beyond the general concept.

——However, the knife she swung, which was powerful enough to cut the flesh and break the bones of an ordinary person, was easily caught by the maid with her bare hands.

"…He's a civilian character of the same type as me!"

What? Why are you paying attention to this place?

"Oh? This lady also has a level 6 physical strength? Then the opposite... you are not actually an alien, right?"

"Master, I suggest that you immediately eliminate this woman... She will seriously undermine my position in your family!"

"You are only thinking about yourself! Could you please stop for a moment!"

……

After finally calming down Xia Ye, who was already starting to get angry, Aarons finally took the three women to the study and began to explain the whole thing.

"I see. You actually have two level six attendants by your side. No wonder you dare to say such things in front of everyone."

"Don't be fooled by this woman, Master. She has at least passed the threshold of level six."

"Teacher Xia Ye, don't be so excited... Didn't I say that she was someone sent by Her Royal Highness the Princess to provide support?"

Aarons had no idea why Xia Ye had such a violent reaction, but the maid seemed to be enjoying it.

"Is this Miss Xia Ye your civil servant? But I have never heard of any strange person from the sheep tribe. Are you sure you know her true identity?"

"Of course I know. Please don't sow discord between us."

After noticing that Aarons's face began to become gloomy, the maid immediately put away the smile on her face and replaced it with a serious expression of official business.

Xia Ye quickly calmed himself down, took the initiative to stand beside Aarons, and began to perform his duties as secretary and adjutant.

"In that case, please allow me to reintroduce myself - my name is Zi Jiangyue, and I am a fool who failed when trying to advance to level six three hundred years ago, and ultimately lost everything, only gaining an immortal body."

Although Aarons had never heard of this name, he could hear a deep sadness and loneliness in the maid's calm tone.

"So, now I am just an empty shell with knowledge but no ability to cast magic."

"Wait a minute, I just thought of a question and I need your help to answer it."

An inappropriate thought suddenly popped up in Aarons' mind, and he immediately expressed it.

"Level six, level six, level six. This kind of person can only be heard of in legends. For an ordinary person to see one once in a lifetime is considered a mysterious existence that was blessed by their ancestors. Why are there three of them in this room now?"

Aarons finally realized that something was wrong with him. He then realized the abnormality that he had been subconsciously ignoring.

"Is my home a dangerous goods distribution center?"
