As a villain, I really don't want to be pursued by the heroine.

"Master, Master, wouldn't it be weird for Alice to wear this?" The girl held down the hem of her skirt and raised her head slightly with a look of uneasiness.

The bottom-up perspective, coupled with the misty eyes, dealt a second critical blow to Roy's heart.

Roy had long guessed how stunning the girl would look in her nightgown, but he never expected her to suddenly reveal her innocent and shy side. He was caught off guard by this unexpected cute look.

As the host, Roy always paid attention to maintaining a sense of propriety in his words and actions, and behaved calmly.

But this time, he couldn't help himself and exclaimed, "Not weird at all! Alice looks so cute in this!"

The girl shuddered slightly and covered her cheeks, which were showing a faint blush, with one hand.

Charlotte and Nia looked at Roy with a gloomy and teasing look respectively.

"So you like this."

"Your goal of buying clothes for Alice has finally been achieved."

Realizing his own loss of composure, Roy coughed hastily and put on a serious face again.

"What nonsense! I just bought it because Alice liked it. I don't have any other purpose."

Hearing this, Alice looked at Roy, unconsciously covered her chest, and said softly: "Well, thank you, Master, Alice will cherish it."

Then she said seriously, "No, but whatever the master's purpose is, Alice will do her best to satisfy it!"

Lately, Alice has been feeling a bit embarrassed about showing too much skin to Roy. Especially after watching "Gray Maid," she realized that even maids would feel uneasy and uneasy when showing skin to the opposite sex. It's not something that's taken for granted.

But when she saw her figure instantly fill Roy's eyes, making him hold his breath and be stunned, Alice's uneasiness was immediately replaced by joy.

The girl's slightly clumsy yet sincere look warmed the expressions of the other three people.

“Although it’s a bit late to ask now…”

Roy came to the bed and sat next to Alice: "Are you happy today?"

Alice nodded vigorously.

"The master bought Alice clothes, took her to see a play, praised her performance, and also..."

The girl suddenly paused.

"And he hugged Alice so tenderly"—for some reason, I couldn't say this.

It was just clothes shopping and a TV series, but this little girl was so easily satisfied. Looking at Alice's eyes narrowed in happiness, Roy felt a mixture of pity and amusement.

That's an expression Alice would never show in the original work.

That was an expression Alice would only show in front of him.

If my insignificant contribution is Alice's treasure, then how can I be stingy with it?

Thinking of this, Roy chuckled and said, "Next time you want to buy some clothes... No, whatever you want, you can ask for it."

Alice was slightly stunned: "Anything?"

"Anything is fine," Roy confirmed.

Anyway, Alice has always been well-behaved and sensible, and it is impossible for her to make any excessive demands.

The two girls beside him frowned at the same time when they heard this, thinking that the words were a bit too ambiguous.

Under Roy's laughter, Alice really began to think about whether there was anything else she wanted.

If I have to say...

For no reason, Alice thought of the Gray Maid in the play.

The Gray Maid's greatest wish is to be kissed by her master, but due to her identity as a maid, she is afraid of being rejected and believes that this relationship is wrong, so she is always unwilling to make this request.

However, she is not the Gray Maid, and Roy is not the unreasonable master in the play.

If it's your own master...

Alice stared at the boy's handsome face and finally expressed the thought that lingered in her heart: "Master, can you give Alice a kiss?"

The air stagnated for a moment.

Charlotte was the first to react.

What a joke—she wanted to shout, but when she saw the boy's eyes fixed on Alice, she suddenly realized that these two people might really have such a possibility!

It was not right to stop it, nor was it right not to stop it. Charlotte, extremely panicked, quickly glared at her only ally.

You insisted on bringing the two of them together, and now that there's a problem, you better think of a solution!

Then Charlotte was dumbfounded.

Because her ally's face was dazed at the moment, his smile was frozen, and he was in a state of being unable to think, as if he had lost his soul.

In one word, confused.

Just as Charlotte was going crazy and Nia's brain was shutting down, Roy leaned over to the girl in front of them.

Chapter 23 Alice's Sweetness

Roy was somewhat helpless about Alice's request.

The heroine in "Gray Maid" has always longed for her master's kiss. Alice is also a girl, and she probably developed a similar ignorant desire due to the influence of the plot.

Alice noticed the tense atmosphere, her eyes avoided, and she lowered her head slightly.

Is my request too much?

As a maid, shouldn't I do this kind of thing with my master?

Alice suppressed her inner turmoil and said calmly, "If it's not possible, forget it."

However, Roy smiled softly: "No, this level is possible anytime."

Is it possible at any time?! Charlotte and Nia were stunned.

Even Alice looked up in surprise, somewhat unable to believe it.

Before they could digest their thoughts, the black-haired boy approached Alice under the stunned gaze of the other two girls, lifted her soft golden bangs, and gently kissed her smooth forehead.

Alice blinked, still a little unresponsive: "Is this a kiss?"

"What else?" Roy was a little amused.

Alice covered the place where she had just been kissed with one hand, her eyes slightly blurred, and she murmured to herself contentedly: "Is that so? This is the master's kiss..."

The master's response proved that this feeling was not wrong. Thinking of this, the girl's uneasiness seemed to be dispelled by the warm sun, and it disappeared forever. A hint of joy even appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Charlotte was leaning against the wall, and Nia heaved a long sigh, both of them feeling relieved that they had escaped danger.

Not to mention Charlotte, even Nia didn't expect what happened just now.

Although Nia wanted to bring Arya and Roy closer, she herself couldn't tell to what extent.

At least not so soon! And even if you want to kiss, you can't kiss in front of us! Nia complained in her heart.

Time is running out. Having fulfilled Alice's last wish for the day, it's time to rest.

Nia didn't make any more noise tonight, but went back to her own room with Charlotte.

After recording the beautiful memories of the day in her diary, Alice rubbed her eyes, which were gradually becoming unable to open due to sleepiness, and staggered onto the bed with her small, white bare feet.

Normally, writing a diary wouldn't take much time, but today I created so many memorable memories with my master that Alice recorded every detail, which resulted in it being a little late.

At first, Alice just wanted to be a maid, replacing the other two girls, and give Roy a perfect date.

But in the end, she got countless good things.

A new dress, a theatrical performance, being hugged by the master, and the master giving...

Thinking back to that kiss, Alice felt her cheeks getting hot and her chest pounding.

She couldn't help but hold the puppy stuffed animal beside her pillow in her arms, lying on her side and curling up her body and limbs, trying to calm her inexplicably high emotions.

Then it suddenly occurred to her that her kiss was somewhat different from that of the other two girls.

Remember, the master, Charlotte, and Nia were all pressed against each other's lips, but he was pressing his forehead against hers.

What kind of kiss does the Gray Maid want?

Even though she still didn't quite understand the difference between a kiss and a kiss, the little maid was satisfied to get a response from her master today, proving that her feelings were not wrong.

With this warm feeling, Alice gently touched the puppy doll with her crystal lips, and then closed her eyes in satisfaction.

In her sleep, the corners of Alice's mouth were filled with sweetness that belonged only to her.

At the same time, Roy changed into loose and comfortable pajamas and lay down on the bed.

I didn't expect so many things to happen on the first day of the holiday.

Although the cultists' attack caused quite a bit of a surprise, it also gave [Charm] a chance to practice with an opponent, and it also allowed him to turn a disaster into a blessing and pick up an extraordinary item.

Titan's Hand:

[Introduction]: [School of the Undead] This extraordinary tool was crafted from the remains of a Titan from the First Age, and it possesses both the aura of the undead and the destructive power of the Titan.

[Effect]: Summons the remains of a Titan for a short period of time based on the user's supernatural power, using them for attack. Can also override the undead aura that originally resides within the Titan's body based on the user's supernatural power.

In the First Age, the Titans were a powerful race capable of rivaling the Dragons. Even a partial remains of them could still be considered destructive.

If I hadn't used [Charm] at that time, and had really confronted this thing head-on, I might not have been able to do better than Alice.

Normally, the spoils of a successful cult defeat should be handed over to official organizations, but it was dark at the time and no one was watching, so Roy just took them.

I helped clean up the mess myself and I don't seek fame or fortune, so a small reward is not too much, right?

The only thing that bothered Roy was the aura of the undead on the wand, which could easily be mistaken for that of a cultist.

But after confirming the specific usage method, this only concern disappeared.

This thing is good whether you use it yourself or sell it.

The more ranged attack methods, the better. After all, Roy currently only had melee skills. Even [Charm] was just an illusion, without any offensive power. [Hand of the Titan] was a good supplement.

If the Mage Society ever heard of a King's Certificate, it wouldn't be something they could acquire with just money. Those magicians, while they viewed money as dirt, were keen on collecting extraordinary items. Perhaps keeping the Hand of the Titan would allow them to trade for it in the future.

But what surprised Roy the most was Alice's breakthrough.

I remember that in the original work, Alice didn't break through Sequence 7 until the very end of the story.

The current progress is almost twice as fast as before.

There is no need for the Holy Light Church to intervene, my Alice can become a saint on her own!

The only thing that made Roy embarrassed was that Alice, Charlotte, and Nia had all become Sequence 7, while he was still stuck at Sequence 8.

This made Roy always feel out of tune with these beautiful girls.

It seems that I have to work harder.

Let’s not talk about [False King] for now, but it is still possible for [Iron Blood] to be upgraded to Sequence 7.

Starting tomorrow, try to catch up with them!

Thinking of this, Roy closed his eyes.

Ten minutes later, the boy in the darkness opened his eyes again, his eyes wide open like bells.

Can't sleep at all!

His mind was filled with the golden figure and the warmth he felt when he was with her.

Roy was used to Alice's company all day long, and now he was suddenly alone, unable to smell the fragrance of the irises, which always made him feel empty inside.

He said that he hoped Alice would make some requests, but in fact, he also wanted to enjoy her acting coquettishly for a while.

Roy's chest couldn't help but feel slightly warm when he recalled the girl's request to be kissed.

Fortunately, Charlotte and Nia were there at the time, otherwise I might not have been able to control myself and would have hugged Alice and kissed her all over, taking advantage of her.

It was obvious that the purpose at the beginning was to raise that child to be the Holy Maiden of Destiny so that he could cling to her.

As a result, I became more and more dependent on her.

As he was daydreaming, Roy finally felt a little sleepy.

But at this moment, a faint knock on the door suddenly sounded in the silent darkness.

What followed was a firm tone that left no room for doubt.

"Open the door, it's me."
