Chapter 320: Nicknaming The Maids (1/2)
Humility's words made it, so if either of them attempted to violate the bet, then they would be chased down by the Undrasil Kingdom and punished.
”Y-You are…” Vernon stared at Humility in terror.
”I'm Kasina Humility Undrasil. None other than the Third Princess of the Undrasil Kingdom. You heard what I said,” Humility said sharply.
”Princess, what is your esteemed self doing here?”
Vernon quickly bowed to her respectfully.
”I'm a student of this academy. Naturally, I'm here,” Humility replied.
”I understand. I-I'll be going now, Princess,” Vernon said to her before he left in a panic.
He rode the carriage behind them with his two butlers, and it drove off quickly.
”What was that about?” Lawrend asked.
He didn't expect her to suddenly say all of that. Although that helped him, she revealed to Vernon that he was close to her.
”I just want to help you out, Master,” Humility replied and smiled at him sweetly.
”Thank you. At least, I don't have to worry about that guy not showing up once he learned about my identity,” Lawrend replied.
He imagined that Vernon didn't know that he was now the Prime Student since he wasn't a student of the academy, and it wasn't announced to the other students yet. Otherwise, his pawns inside the academy would have told him already.
”Let's go home, Young Master,” Ella said as she tugged his clothes.
”Alright.”
With that, the five of them rode a carriage and headed back home.
…
”Welcome back, Master!” Amene greeted them with a duster in her hand.
She looked cute in her current appearance. Lawrend couldn't help but smile when he saw her.
”Hello, Amene. How's everything in the mansion? Did Ramiela behave herself?” Lawrend asked.
”Yes, Master. She'd been in her room since you left. I did check on her a few times to make sure,” Amene answered.
”Oh! That's a good job,” Lawrend complimented, and he patted her head.
”Nnnyaaa…”
Amene closed her eyes and purred in delight.
Once he was done patting her, they entered the mansion.
”Welcome back, Master,” Grape said as she saw them approach her in the dining room. She was currently stitching a maid uniform on the table, and Spools of threads, needles, and other sewing accessories were scattered all over the table.
”You don't feel sleepy today, Grape?” Lawrend asked her with a puzzled look on his face.
The others that came with Lawrend sat on the seats one by one except for Aezel, who stood behind Lawrend as he stood there.
”What do you mean, Master?” Grape tilted her head in confusion.
”Ah, nothing. Don't hesitate to tell us if you're feeling sick,” Lawrend replied with a face full of concern.
”Nyaa?”
Grape blinked her eyes repeatedly. His words didn't make sense to her. She didn't know that Amene told Lawrend that Grape could be pregnant, which is why Lawrend was worried about her.
”What's this?”
Lawrend noticed the embroidery on the maid uniform she was holding. It said, ”Grape”.
”This is my maid uniform, Master. That's my name written on it,” Grape replied.
