I Became the Maid of the Lout Prince

Chapter 33

It’s the day after I was ordered by Harold to become Ethan’s exclusive maid and had no choice but to accept it.

In other news, besides my becoming Ethan’s exclusive maid, there was a slight change for Isabel, my fellow maid who shared the same room.

She was assigned a private single room on the 2nd floor instead of the bedroom with the bunk bed she and I had used together on the third.

While it really was a minor change compared to me becoming Ethan’s exclusive maid, it didn’t seem minor to Isabel.

As she left the bedroom with the bunk bed, she couldn’t help but let out a wistful sound.

“This room was cramped, but being here with Lilith was nice...”

“Can’t be helped. Considering new maids will come later, I have to vacate this room. And you being alone in the vacant shared room would make you feel lonely for no reason.“

“Yeah, I guess so...”

This was pretty much a done deal since a few days ago.

With Ariana and Alicia gone, two private rooms for junior maids had become vacant.

It was only natural that Isabel, the new junior maid, would take one of those two vacancies – nothing more, nothing less.

I was also supposed to be assigned a private junior maid room like Isabel...

“So Lilith, you’ll live on the 4th floor starting today?”

“...Yeah, that’s right.”

Due to the regulation that exclusive maids must always stay close, my room would move from the junior maids’ rooms on the 3rd floor to the exclusive maids’ rooms on the 4th floor.

...Really complicated feelings.

“Li-Lilith! Is this all your luggage? Sh-shall I carry it upstairs for you?“

“...I can do it myself, so just leave it there.“

“Huh, what?! I couldn’t hear you well, so I’ll take it to the 4th floor first!“

“Haah... I’ll go up too, Isabel.“

“Okay...”

Not understanding my feelings, Catherine picked up my luggage and headed to the exclusive maid’s waiting room on the 4th floor.

I, too, finished my brief conversation with Isabel and followed behind her.

The topmost floor of the mansion is the 4th floor, where Ethan and Harold’s rooms are.

‘Shit.’

Even though I had moved from the shared room on the 3rd floor to a private room on the 4th, my mood was in the gutter in many ways.

In the end, all I gained from the negotiation with Harold was a momentary sense of mortal danger and the firmly decided position as an exclusive maid.

If I had known this would happen, I probably should not have confronted Harold in the first place.

After giving her a mild warning not to overdo it, I seriously pondered how to proceed.

After looking around my room to some extent, Catherine turned her gaze to me and carefully asked:

“It feels really novel. Is this how noble ladies’ rooms usually are?“

“I don’t know for sure, but most noble ladies’ rooms would be even bigger than this. Especially for clothes, instead of having a closet in a room like this, they’d have a separate dressing room, and maids or butlers would bring the clothes. This seems to be made to give the exclusive maid noblewoman vibes while doubling as living quarters.”

“As expected, Lilith must know a lot since you’re a noble! I-I thought a room like this would naturally only be used by noble ladies...“

“For baronesses or poor counts’ daughters, their rooms may be similar to this. Not all nobles are wealthy with large estates just for being nobles.“

“I-I see... As expected of Lilith...”

To be precise, I didn’t know this from being a noble myself, but I learned it from knowledge gained while pursuing noble heroines in my past life.

Due to the setting in which commoners cannot use magic, all magic-using heroines are automatically nobles.

So, when pursuing those kinds of heroines, I inevitably ended up in their private rooms as well.

There were even princesses and imperial princesses among the heroines of this Luminor Academy game.

Hence, a noble lady’s room was a very familiar sight for me, who had completed all routes in my past life.

Even so, despite spending over 500 hours on Lilith’s route, this “Lilith’s Room“ felt utterly unfamiliar.

‘...Well, Ethan’s training has yet to start.’

Once I start getting “trained“ by that pig Ethan under the pretext of being his exclusive maid, this room is bound to transform into a dreadful sight.

My future actions should prevent that from happening.

Though I couldn’t avoid becoming Ethan’s exclusive maid, my current self certainly wasn’t in a situation where I couldn’t do anything about it.

I was at level 5, had three skills, and had a vast mana capacity nearing four digits.

It’s a shame I didn’t learn Mana Blast, but I didn’t necessarily need that specific skill.

Above all, my personality completely differed from the original Lilith Rosewood in the game.

Unlike Lilith, who became a sex slave because she failed to refuse the lord’s orders in time, my fundamental nature as former South Korean university student Lee Ji-hwan was different.

So unlike the foolish Lilith who obediently endured, if I see even a slight chance of being “trained“ by that damn pig Ethan, I will resist by any means necessary.

I absolutely will not meekly endure like the “Foolish Maid Lilith“ in the game.

“Ah, I-I’ll go back to my room now! R-rest well, Lilith!“

“Yes, you can go.“

After looking around my room here and there, Catherine headed back to the stairs leading to the 3rd floor where her room was.

Left alone in the room, I quietly pondered while leaning forward on the table.

Since I couldn’t avoid becoming Ethan’s exclusive maid, I need to conduct myself well from now on if I want to survive.
