13 Mission for the Battle Maids (1/2)
Dark Lord of Tartarus
***
A woman with black hair and green eyes wearing a metal plated maid uniform was kneeling before her master and lowered her head. The maid is Aesyla, the eldest of the Hyades Battle Maids. Her master called her so she immediately went to her master's office.
The guardians were all inside the office as well.
”Aesyla, good you came here fast.”
”I shall always answer to your summons immediately, my lord.”
”Now then, I called you, because I have a mission for you.”
”What is the mission?”
”I and the guardians will be attacking a certain human town, and you will act on your mission during the attack.”
Aesyla lifted her head and looked to her master as she keenly listened to him.
”As you know, we have some Magic Crystals inside our vault. However, those crystals may not be enough as time goes forward. Magic Crystals are used in various ways like creation for life or items. That is why we need more.”
”So you want us to get Magic Crystals?”
”That's right. Tomorrow I will send you to the mining site where I obtained the crystals. Security is tighter now though, but I'm confident you can handle them. Based on our observations, there are no weapons there that will be difficult for you to handle. So you'll be fine.”
”Understood.”
”Also, I will be giving you Rock Golems, they will help you in the mining. Command them as you see fit.”
”Yes.”
”Then, I will only send two people to accompany you for we can't leave this mansion unguarded. Hmmm, what about Ambrosia and Mira? They ought to be capable enough.”
”Understood, I will relay them the mission you have given to us immediately.”
”All right, you're dismissed.”
Aesyla stood up and left the room then went on her way to the lower floor.
When she went to the second floor using the stairs, Aesyla saw one of her sisters cleaning the decorations. The woman cleaning has silver hair and dark brown eyes wearing a maid uniform, the uniform doesn't have any protective parts, just a standard uniform.
”Mira.” Aesyla called her sister.
”Oh, Aesyla! The meeting's finish I see.”
”Yes. We have been given a mission. We'll talk about it in our room, also it would be good to have all of our sisters attend. When you come across them, please tell them once they're finished with their current task to come to our room immediately. I will go around the mansion and find whoever I can.
”Got it. I'll tell them.”
Aesyla nodded and went on her way.
She reached the first floor, and then she went her way to the dining room.
There she saw one of her sisters cleaning. She saw a pair of very noticeable part of her. It was her ears, they were long and pointed. She has brown skin like Xelya, long brown hair and purple eyes.
”Hello, Cleia, gentle cleaning as always I see.”
The elf looked at the source of the voice.
”Aesyla, it's you.”
Cleia quickly walked closed to Aesyla and smiled tenderly.
”So so? How's Lord Xyn?”
Cleia's hands were clasped together and her eyes were shining with anticipation.
