Herrscher of Lust, Rita Rossweisse (Continued)
Bai Ge's bedroom wasn't exactly tidy.
Although it wasn't to the point of clothes being carelessly thrown around, there were still a bunch of things scattered on the ground.
For example, the new weapons that were subsequently constructed, such as the Godkiller Sword Surtr, Star of Eden, floating cannons, violins, original musical scores, and Honkai Energy potions.
Rita had clearly helped tidy up before; her movements were practiced and the bedroom was spotless in the blink of an eye.
Although the maid Bai Ge, "Please put things back where they belong after you're done using them, otherwise they're easy to lose."
But Bai Ge always stubbornly insisted, "I remember where I put them, so it doesn't matter where I put them."
So the former had no choice but to tidy up Bai Ge's bedroom every now and then, sometimes saying, "Durandal sometimes leaves her exercise equipment lying around too."
A few minutes later, Bai Ge's bedroom seemed to have been reset and returned to its clean and tidy state. The beautiful and reliable maid wiped non-existent sweat from her forehead, while Bai Ge clapped her hands.
"Thank you, Rita, this time it's all thanks to you."
"No need to be so polite, after all, this is a maid's job. By the way, how is your appetite, Lord Bai Ge?"
"I'm hungry, is there anything to eat?"
Bai Ge touched his empty stomach and asked.
Although his omnipotent Honkai Energy and Herrscher physique mean he no longer needs to eat, as a human being, as someone who eats, missing even one meal is a great regret in life.
"Today's lunch is black pepper ribeye steak, creamy pasta, yellow corn chowder, and a vegetable salad, which are already on the table waiting for you to enjoy."
"It sounds delicious, I can't wait to try it."
Bai Ge's eyes lit up.
Ever since this maid came to our house, the food seems to have suddenly become more upscale. Even Himeko has changed from drinking beer every meal to drinking red wine every meal.
Although Bai Ge has a special affection for Shenzhou cuisine, delicious food knows no borders (or regions). Rita's cooking is very good, on par with Mei's.
... inside the restaurant...
While eating his steak with chopsticks, Bai Ge checked the information shared by Anti-Entropy. Shi Rita stood motionless behind him, like a beautiful statue.
"Rita, where did everyone go?"
"Today is not a day off, Lord Bai Ge."
"Um, okay."
Are you planning to attend your morning and afternoon classes?
If Bai Ge said he was going to class, Rita would fetch his schoolbag for him, but Bai Ge shook his head and said he wasn't going, as he planned to slack off all day.
"I've learned all the useful things from the textbooks, so going there would just be a waste of time. I've also mastered all the techniques and tricks that Fu Hua taught me, so I'd better focus on developing my powers."
The power of the Herrscher of Reason allows Bai Ge to learn everything quickly, and now St. Freya's courses are already helping him.
Bai Ge has now fully mastered the combat skills and Inch-Punch Style accumulated by the Immortal Crimson Crane over 50,000 years.
The remaining "Great Void Sword God" is still being challenged, but there's no rush. As a Herrscher, he can skip the prerequisite skills and learn the final ultimate move, Sword God.
"But it's really a little strange to be in a quiet dorm room with just the two of us."
"Hehe, it's not just two people."
"Hmm? Who else?"
Rita smiled and pointed to the second floor.
One of the doors was open.
The next second, Theresa, wearing an adorable pink bunny pajama, walked out, still clutching one ear of HOMU doll in her hand, rubbing her eyes and yawning, looking like she had just woken up.
Despite being the headmistress, she is the last person to wake up at the St. Freya Academy. How lazy she is!
Theresa walked over in a daze and climbed onto the chair to sit down.
It was obvious that he woke up hungry and got out of the rice mill.
Bai Ge's expression was subtle. Only then did she remember that although her surname Apocalypse, she actually had the blood of Kaslana in the majority. Judging from her moon-like white hair, she was also a Kiana.
"Hmm? Good morning, Bai Ge. Rita, what's good to eat? Also, I'd like to drink bitter melon juice."
"I'll prepare right away, Lady Theresa, but before that, please go and wash up first, and... please don't expose a girl's pajamas to men."
"Ugh, this is so troublesome..."
Although she verbally resisted, Theresa obediently went to wash up after seeing that it was Rita who spoke. She had never been able to do anything about this perfect maid.
A few minutes later, when Theresa returned, her lunch was already laid out on the table, along with a glass of bright green bitter melon juice.
"Rita, Rita. By the way, today isn't a day off. Are you two naughty students trying to skip class again? This headmaster won't let this go unnoticed!"
"I didn't want to stay up late reading comics last night, but then Theresa, who was the last one up in the whole school this morning, said that she already knows everything in class, so of course she has to do her own research and development next."
"Yes, is that so..."
Theresa scratched her head awkwardly. Her attempt to demonstrate the headmistress's authority today had failed, and now it seemed that Bai Ge was even more important to St. Freya than to her.
It doesn't matter if Valkyrie Academy loses its mascot principal who has no authority, but it can't lose its current strongest fighter, strongest healer, and strongest brain, Bai Ge.
"And Rita? Aren't you in class either?"
"Lady Theresa, I wasn't originally a student at the St. Freya Academy, and..."
Rita, both amused and exasperated, pointed to the 'Immortal Blades' insignia she still wore, which was also her symbol as S-Rank Valkyrie.
Don't underestimate Rita Losweather just because she's a maid. Even if all the A-Rank Valkyrie from the St. Freya Academy attacked her head-on, they wouldn't be a match for her.
As for not approaching it from the front...
That would make Rita so bad that she'd question her existence!
After all, she was originally Valkyrie specializing in assassination; otherwise, she wouldn't have served as Otto's black glove.
(Seriously, this is a steal! I got a Rita and a Godkiller Armor set as a bonus, Argent Knight? Argent Knight: Artemis. Otto must have been in such a hurry that day that he forgot to take it back, haha~)
This is what Bai thought to himself.
When Otto came to St. Freya to compete with her, Rita was wearing the Argent Knight: Argent Knight: Artemis outfit.
So when she was handed over to Bai Ge as a bargaining chip, Bai Ge received not only an S-Rank Valkyrie, but also a set of Godkiller Armor.
In terms of value, it's even more valuable than those three hundred sets of B-Rank Valkyrie Armor, so it's a steal.
"Rita has no connection with the academy in terms of status. She can be said to be my personal maid now. So, rather than attending any school, her job is to stay by my side at all times and serve me."
Bai Ge said with a hint of arrogance, but also with a sense of fact.
His relationship with Rita is now nominally that of master and maid.
If this were a few hundred years ago, in an era when human rights awareness was weaker, maids could even be considered the private property of their masters, and were allowed to do all sorts of things.
"Wow, Bai Ge, you're too much..."
"What are you thinking? I didn't ask her to do anything she didn't want to do. Is there any gentleman in St. Freya more gentlemanly than me?"
"Fuhua..."
"Headmaster, I advise you to think carefully before you speak. Although Fu Hua is an honest person, an honest person is the most terrifying when angry. You are no match for her. Warning: Inch-Punch: Skull Splitter."
"Ahem! I didn't say anything just now."
Theresa wiped away her cold sweat, still shaken.
Poor Valkyrie Hua, because St. Freya Academy lacks male figures who can be compared to Bai Ge, so for some reason she always ends up being the one being compared to/hurt.
"By the way, Bai Ge, did you really not force Rita to do anything she didn't want to do? I see her following you around all day, busy with this and that for you, and she hardly gets a break."
"Lady Theresa, I was not forced by Lord Bai Ge to do anything I didn't want to do. After all, I, Rita, am a maid with principles."
"Then why are you being so attentive to Bai Ge? Normally, if your grandfather sold you to Bai Ge, shouldn't you feel disgusted? Um, could it be that..."
A certain possibility came to mind.
Theresa stared in astonishment at the two people in front of her.
I can't help but wonder, is Bai Ge really that charming? Even Rita, S-Rank Valkyrie always maintains elegance and composure, has fallen for her in just half a month?
Well, it doesn't seem impossible. After all, this guy can even win over Herrscher, so compared to that, even S-Rank Valkyrie doesn't seem so outrageous.
"Hey~ Headmaster, stop imagining things. It's not what you think. Rita isn't in love with me or anything."
Bai Ge rolled his eyes, indicating that although he was handsome, he was neither a drug-induced spirit nor Herrscher of Reason could modify other people's memories.
And I've been so busy lately.
He didn't have time to woo this Herrscher of Lust.
Bai Ge turned to look at Rita and said with a light laugh.
"The reason you're serving me so diligently is actually because of orders from Otto's side, right?"
"For example, they might try to gather information about me at close range to find my weaknesses, etc. Could this also involve a honey trap?"
His golden eyes seemed to see right through the maid.
"... Lord Bai Ge, how did you find out?"
"So what? I'm not so naive as to think that just because you were given to me as a bargaining chip, you'll be loyal to me. You're not a tool, but a human being with your own will."
Bai Ge raised his hand, intending to lift Rita's chin.
