Volume 3 Chapter 23 (2/2)

“So Gigi-san, you couldn’t do a job unless you were told to baa~?”

“I don’t do jobs outside of my charge. It usually causes problems.”

Gigi answered Merry’s sarcastic remarks without changing his expression.

The two glared at each other for a while.

The Madam changed the atmosphere that had gotten sour.

“Merry, Gigi, that’s enough of your quarrel. There’s no use fighting over what’s past. What we must think about for the time being is what we’ll do with Lute, is it not?”

“That’s right. I have behaved disgracefully in front of Master and Madam, I am very sorry baa~.”

“…………”

Merry bowed his head deeply in apology, but Gigi just crossed his arms in silence.

Everyone’s eyes were once again pointed at me because of what Madam said.

If I were returned to the slave house, there was a high chance of me being bought as a male prost.i.tute next time.

I’d rather stay here and become Chrisse ojou-sama’s caretaker and blood bag, compared to that.

My employers the Count and Madam don’t seem to be the type to treat slaves coldly.

This is such an ideal place for me.

That much I can affirm.

Because I didn’t want to be returned to the slave house, I frantically made my appeal.

“Please. Let me work here some way or another! I’ll do my best as a blood bag to open up ojou-sama’s heart!”

“I am very sorry but I must object. Having a boy attached to ojou-sama is…. Firstly, ojou-sama is afraid of Lute. It’s possible that her symptoms will become increasingly worse because of him baa~.”

“I’ll approve. In fact, he should be taking care of ojou-sama because he’s a boy.”

Gigi directly opposed Merry’s opinion.

Merry was surprised and hastily questioned him.

“Gigi-san, do you really think so!? Did you not see how frightened the ojou-sama was baa~!”

“That’s why I think it needs to be done. Ojou-sama already had female friends her age. It won’t mean anything to add another female friend her age. But something might happen if she got a male friend.”

“Gigi-san……”

The unsociable, scary faced Gigi-san with one ear torn off.

I was shaking deep inside.

But he now looked like an angel with a pair of white wings growing out of his back.

Merry calmed down his emotions and coughed once.

“I understand what Gigi-san’s thinking. It’s all the more reason we should return Lute for now and look for another slave with the right requirements, is it not? The slave we buy is going to be stationed at the ojou-sama’s side. We should take utmost care in choosing baa~.”

The head butler Merry wanted to return me.

The head guard Gigi wanted me to stay.

I don’t know who had jurisdiction here, but I wished that Gigi-san’s opinion would be heard.

Actually Merry, I’m gonna make you into grilled mutton one day so be ready for it!

Having finished their quarrel, Merry and Gigi’s eyes were turned to their master, the Count.

“Humm, I’ll take into mind what you two said. So in that case I’ll do both, I’ll have Lute take care of Chrisse for 3 days starting tomorrow, if he does well as a blood bag in that time I’ll keep him! If not I’ll send him back!”

“Will it be alright? It would be difficult to get repayment for goods that were returned just at the end of the provisional period, and not even half the price will be returned baa~.”

“Hahahahahahaha! I don’t mind! It was my mistake in the first place! If I don’t even give Lute a chance then this gentleman’s name will be sullied!”

“Good for you Lute. Do your best and be Chrisse’s blood bag.”

“T, thank you very much! Master! Madam!”

I vigorously bowed my head.

It had conditions attached, but it looks like I got a chance to stay with the Vlad family.

Now I’ll do what it takes to please the ojou-sama, I’ll let her suck my blood!

Still wearing the maid uniform, I became motivated and tightened my hand in a fist.

The Count and Madam watched me with a pleasant smile, Merry was dissatisfied, and Gigi and the maid watched with no expression.

Thus the fateful three days, that will decide whether or not I could stay at the Vlad house, begins!
