TWDR - Chapter 117

Isolene looked at the little one with joy.

"What's your name?"

"It's Bailey! Why!"

"Your fangs are pointed."

"What is that! It's because I'm from the northern snowfields! Originally, those people had a bit of pointed fangs."

"Ugh, yes. You're not hungry? Why don't you go to my house and eat something?"

Isolene reached out to Bailey.

Bailey almost nodded, then stopped. She was hungry to death, but she was suspicious of a kind person who was kind to her.

"Hey, naive humans. It's dangerous to let someone you meet into your house blindly. You look quite old, but haven't you learned that yet?"

"I'm not very naive. It's because when I see you, I think of my friend."

"What kind of friend?"

"I had a friend like you who had black hair and pointed fangs. Now she's far away."

Bailey rolled her head for a moment, trying to figure out the situation. However, she was so hungry that her head couldn't turn properly.

She just took Isolene's outstretched hand and got up.

'I have to think about the future after I get the food first.'

***

Grand Duke Ethel's dining room. Bailey's eyes turned to the grand table.

"Wow!"

Foods that only the best witches could eat were spread out in front of her. Whether it's fresh seafood dishes, salads, or meats that don't taste good. Bailey let go and inhaled the food.

In the demon world, they only picked up the leftover ingredients and ate them. Even when she was summoned to the human world, she had never tried such luxurious food because most of them were summoned by commoners.

While Bailey was happily enjoying her meal, the family of Grand Duke Ethel gathered in front of the dining room.

Anna whispered as she looked at Bailey through the crack in the door.

"She eats cooked meat well. She isn't picky."

"After all, Mori were the only ones who had a dirty taste. Alice ate well without covering her food, right?"

"But I think she can fill her stomach with human food. Is it because she is too weak for a witch and is no different from a human?"

Isolene chuckled and looked at Bailey.

Chession, who was passing by, joined in and looked inside the restaurant.

"So, Isolene. That kid, the size of a pea, suddenly fell from the sky?"

"I guess so. I guess it's because I really want to see Mori."

"Will she be able to grant your wish?"

"I don't think I can even look at it."

"She has a lot of wounds on her body. I think she was caught up in the Demon War. By the way, can't she heal her wounds by herself? Mori is doing well."

"If you could, wouldn't you have done it right away?"

"Once she finished eating, he said he would call the nuns to treat him. And, Anna. You know what to do, right?"

Anna replied curiously

"This time, if you treat me well enough, I can make you a family member and give you work, right?"

"Yes."

"It's my specialty."

Bailey was busy emptying the plates behind the door, not knowing that a plot was taking place.

And after a while, Bailey chuckled as she looked at the plates that had been emptied.

When she was full, her head finally started to turn properly. Bailey quickly grasped the situation.

'I was lucky this time! I was summoned by the nobleman's maid!'

And the maid named Isolene was also quite lucky. She summoned me at a time when I decided to live a good life! If she had summoned me before, she would have seen a rough situation.

'Anyway, all the people in this family know me as a human. I succeeded in deceiving humans with my excellent acting skills.'

It has been 200 years since humans were deceived and turned their backs on them. It was clear that her career was shining.

And Chession Ethel, the owner of this mansion, was the one who forbade witch hunts? Because of this, the people in this mansion were likely not to believe in the existence of witches.

Bailey made a vow. She said she would not miss the opportunity to be summoned to the aristocratic house in a good environment. While living here, she just wanted to relieve the resentment of being a slave in the demon world.

'I have to occupy this mansion and enjoy wealth. Like high-ranking witches!'

To do this, it was important to win the favor of the people in the mansion.

'First of all, I have to go bake and boil my small pot.'

Something suddenly caught Bailey's mind as she thought so.

'By the way. I think I heard rumors that Sister Gremory also lived in a human aristocracy.'

Isn't this place?

Gremory is her benefactor. Roasting and boiling the house where the benefactor stayed is the work of witches who do not know morality... Ah, how big is the empire? But is this the only place where the aristocracy is located?

'Let's get rid of useless thoughts and do my best to get ahead of myself!'

Bailey jumped out of a high chair and walked to the restaurant's door. Isolene, who was waiting at the door, greeted Bailey.

"Did you enjoy it?"

"Yes! Hehe, thank you. I'm not hungry anymore."

Bailey smiled brightly on purpose. Humans seem Innocent and prefer good people.

"Do you want to live here?"

"Huh? Yes!"

Bailey nodded eagerly, embarrassed. She doubts the inner feelings of that small person, but for now, achieving her goal is the priority.

Isolene tried to hide the laughter that burst out of her. A witch who must have eaten enough to age is so pure. You can see everything inside.

"Bailey, you've hurt a lot here and there. Can't you treat it by yourself?"

"Huh? Isn't it time for wounds to heal?"

"That's right. Follow me. Let's go for treatment."

Isolene was convinced. This bean is so weak that it must not have the ability to heal the wound. She learned about it from the time she felt full after eating human food like a human. It's no different from a person.

Isolene took Bailey's hand and led her to the remaining room. After eating something delicious, Bailey, who was relieved, cheerfully followed Isolene.

And she was caught by the nuns who were waiting in the room. After the wound was disinfected, Bailey let out a scream.

"Ugh! It's stinging! Please save me!"

Bailey was in agony like a witch being burned at the stake. The sisters only disinfected a small wound on her knee.

Isolene looked at Bailey pitifully.

"Why are you so harsh?"

"Human, save me! That bastard is trying to torture me to death!"

"She's just disinfecting it, but does it hurt that much?"

Bailey shook off the nuns' hands and ran to Isolene.

Isolene wondered if she was being scolded or if she was really sick. No matter what she did, she was fine.

"It hurts! Don't disinfect! I can get better even if I don't do that!"

Bailey began to swell with tears in her eyes.

Isolene tried to do so and bit the sisters. Even if she looked so small, she would have been over 200 years old, but she didn't think she would be a flock of people without any basis.

'If you leave it alone, it's really better, so that's what you're doing.'

Bailey whimpered and didn't let go of Isolene's skirt. Even though she was 200 years old, her mental age seemed to remain the same as her youth.

"Bailey, stay away. I have to go to work."

"Ugh, I don't like. I'm scared. Don't leave me alone."

"I'll give you a maid to take care of you, so stay calm."

"Maid?"

"Yes, a maid."

Bailey's eyes sparkled. I can't believe that I have a maid who will take care of me after living as a slave at the bottom! After all, the nobles had a big barrel. Look at the person she sees for the first time today, who also has a maid.

"Yes, I'll be quiet."

Excited, Bailey sat down at the end of the bed. Isolene smiled and left the room.

Bailey hummed as she enjoyed the sunlight shining through the window. If you have a maid, what should you do first? Should I ask her to wipe the floor clean without a single speck of dust? Shall I grab and whip her with something strange? In the demon world, she dealt with all the things below, so she didn't come up with any other ideas.

Finally, the maid knocked on the door.

"Bailey! This is Anna, the maid who will serve Bailey from today. Can I go in?"

"Yes, come in."

A normal-looking young maid with brown hair tied up high entered. It seemed like it would be perfect to use something that looked formidable. Bailey imitated the force of the higher-ranking witches and gave orders.

"Hey, maid. Wipe the floor right away!"

"Yes, I will. I'll bring you cleaning utensils."

The maid obediently went outside.

And after a while, Bailey's speech was choked. It was because of a creature that followed Anna with a broom.

"Black goat...?"

Anna chuckled at Bailey's bewilderment.

"Before'l cleaned it, I brought it because I thought you would like it. You definitely want to have it for dinner tonight."

Bailey's eyes flickered. Damn, for some reason, the maid expressed her intention to offer a black goat to the witch. If so, she has no choice but to grant the maid's trivial wish.

'No, that maid doesn't even know that the black goat has that meaning. As long as I just keep my mouth shut and accept it, there's no problem!'

By the way.

"I'm going to give you a black goat, and I hope Bailey will treat me 'very kindly'".

"...!"

Is it a coincidence or an intentional situation? The maid made a wish.
