However, they eventually took it back.

He hasn't raised his favorability to the point where he can touch her body yet. Although his resistant expression has its own charm, Bai is indeed a gentleman.

"Otto must have contacted you, right? I don't even need to guess. But I think it's probably just to get you to collect my love essence, not to find an opportunity to kill me."

After all, his existence is still very important. In Otto's eyes, Bai Ge is an important key to awaken Kiana's human consciousness after she becomes a Herrscher of Reason in the future.

"Everything is as you say, sir."

Rita took a deep breath and said, her heart pounding with fear.

She had willingly served as Bai Ge's personal maid these past few days, all in order to gather information about his love interest.

Although Rita had considered that Bai Ge must have some suspicions about her, she didn't expect that he would still let himself go even though he knew everything.

However, since this person did not kill or imprison him immediately, it means that he must have other plans.

Rita hesitated for a few seconds, then decided that instead of letting her imagination run wild, she should just ask directly.

"Lord Bai Ge, you know perfectly well that I am a spy lurking in your midst, so why did you still let me get close?"

Guess~

"..."

"Alright, alright, I'm not teasing you anymore. The truly important information I've shown you is information that wouldn't matter even if Otto knew, and besides..."

Bai 5.4 Ge revealed a sly smile.

"Such a beautiful and capable maid has come to me of her own accord, why should I refuse? I've been having such a comfortable time these past few days~"

He has always been the one to indulge others.

But ever since Rita came to his side, Bai Ge felt like he was being spoiled. Even without asking for anything, this thoughtful maid would take care of all the trivial matters for him.

She would help tidy the bedroom, prepare three meals a day, or run errands. Even if she did nothing but have Rita by her side, she was still a very pleasing and attractive woman.

It was just that he leaked some insignificant information to Otto, information he already knew, and yet he got such a super high school maid to take care of his life.

Bai Ge thought this deal was incredibly profitable.

"I see."

Rita sighed with a wry smile.

What else could she say? Thank Lord Bai Ge for sparing her life? After all, even if she had indeed served him well these past few days, she had also engaged in espionage.

Bai Ge allowed her to stand there peacefully, instead of killing her, imprisoning her, or interrogating her about her Schicksal. Rita truly felt incredibly lucky.

Just then, Bai Ge raised the empty cup.

Rita immediately understood and respectfully filled his glass.

"Hehe, it's because Rita, you're just too capable. I can't bear to hurt you anymore, and besides..."

Bai Ge's golden eyes met her wine-red eyes as he spoke.

"Since you're gathering information about me, I'd like to learn more about you, Rita. Believe me, one day I'll completely win you over."

He pointed his finger at Rita and fired a shot into her heart.

After a moment of stunned silence, the latter couldn't help but smile.

"What do you want to know about me? That's quite a bold statement. Rita is just a spy... You're an incredible person, Lord Bai Ge."

Second update. Please give me flowers, votes, and tips.

"Trying to understand me deeply? That's quite a bold statement. Rita is just a spy... You're an incredible person, Lord Bai Ge."

"Hehe, female spy sounds cool, and maid is an even bigger plus. I really want to know more about you, Rita. Let's just say it's a return favor. After all, I've let you get close to me all this time, so it's my turn now."

After finishing his last steak, Bai Ge was playing with a tomato with his fork. The round, red tomato was poked around in the plate with the silver fork, seemingly trying to escape, but ultimately it couldn't avoid being eaten.

Suddenly, Bai Ge mischievously pointed to his teacup.

"For example, if I deliberately knock the teacup over now, will you be angry, Rita?"

"Lord Bai Ge, I just cleaned the floor."

"Yes, it's all cleaned so thoroughly it's reflective, but Rita seems so relaxed about it. I'm a little curious what you're like when you're angry, after all..."

Even when a beautiful girl is angry, she is still beautiful—so said Pink Fairy Lady.

"Rita won't be angry about this, but please don't do anything to bother me."

"Okay~ just kidding. Seeing how carefully you cleaned, I would feel guilty if I deliberately damaged it. After all, the fruits of our labor should be cherished..."

Snap!

Bai Ge hadn't finished speaking.

The sound of a glass falling to the ground came from behind.

Of course, it wasn't his black tea that was spilled, but rather bright green bitter melon juice. The green color spread across the floor, completely ruining the maid's hard work of the past half hour.

Bai Ge and Rita slowly turned to look at Theresa, who was so embarrassed she almost wanted to disappear into the ground.

"Theresa, you should cherish the fruits of other people's labor."

"Waaah, I'm so sorry, Rita, it was an accident."

"It's alright, Lady Theresa. I know you didn't mean it. Please don't touch me, I'll handle it right away."

Rita said with a wry smile, as she put on gloves and deftly cleaned up the large shards of glass. Then she wiped away the bright green bitter melon juice with a cloth and carefully cleaned up the small shards.

Bai Ge looked curiously at Rita, who was kneeling on the floor and trying to clean, and thought her posture was very graceful.

Compared to the overpowered characters in Honkai Impact 3rd, Rita is just an ordinary person, but even so, she is still S-Rank Valkyrie. At present, the only one of the Trio who can fight her is Mei, and even Bronya is still a bit weaker than her.

Yet, despite all this, she valued her status as a maid so highly and treated everyone with such humility and respect.

"Rita, what does a maid mean to you?"

"Hmm? Is Lord Bai Ge interested in becoming a maid?"

"I'm not, I didn't, crossdressing is a no-go."

"Hehe, it's just a little joke. I don't recommend anyone become a maid. After all, in Rita's eyes, a maid is a guardian, someone who helps her master realize her dreams."

While they were talking, Rita had already cleaned the floor. She poured Theresa another glass of bitter melon juice, then took away Bai Ge's plate and put it in the kitchen sink.

"... You must have a desire to serve."

Bai Ge said with certainty that it is rare to find someone who is so willing to sacrifice for others, and if such a girl becomes a maid, it would be nothing short of a machine for raising useless people.

To be honest, ever since Rita got close to him, Bai Ge felt that he had become much lazier. He had become dependent on her, expecting her to do everything for him.

But who can blame her when this woman is just so good at taking care of people?

Bai Ge: (I thought Mei was unbeatable when it came to taking care of people, but I didn't expect Rita to be even better than Mei. Ah~ what am I going to do? I'm going to become a useless person. Oh well, I might as well just give up.)

It can only be said that people go down the path of depravity at the speed of light.

"So, how can I become your master?"

"Hehe, Lord Bai Ge, aren't you already Rita's master? If you have any dreams, please tell me, Rita will help you achieve them."

"Unfortunately, I don't have any dreams, but like you, I want to protect other people's dreams. For example, Bronya's dream of becoming a game designer, Mei's dream of becoming a teacher, and... Kiana's dream of just loafing around and doing nothing."

What Bai wants to do now is to defeat the Honkai.

To rewrite all the tragedies of Previous Civilization and Current Civilization.

But this is not a dream, but an ideal.

There is a clear difference between the two; the former is something you only dare to dream about, or something you can do if everything goes smoothly.

"So that's how it is..."

After a moment of stunned silence, Rita smiled knowingly, and Bai Ge was taken aback by her sudden softening gaze.

"What's wrong?"

"No, it's just that I feel like I understand you a little better now."

"Really? That's a bit unfair. I've always been the one revealing myself. Shouldn't Rita tell me something about yourself too?"

(Even if I don't say anything, it seems like you can see right through me sooner or later.) Rita thought to herself.

Since coming into contact with Bai Ge as a maid, Rita has discovered that this person is not actually wary of her at all.

It was as if they never considered me an enemy; instead, there was an inexplicable sense of trust between us.

Rita sometimes wondered if they were companions she had spent time with in the past, but she just couldn't remember them.

Otherwise, Rita wouldn't know how to explain Bai Ge's seemingly innate goodwill.

During this time, Rita had seen Bai's sleeping face countless times. If she had any intention, Rita could easily poison Bai Ge's food.

In fact, when they first met, Bai Ge was completely unsuspecting of the black tea she had added computer accessories to.

"Lord Bai Ge, didn't you say you wanted to get to know Rita? How about we play a little game that will help us understand each other?" Rita suddenly said.

She believed Bai Ge wouldn't refuse.

Although her time spent with Bai Ge wasn't complete, Rita did learn some of his personality traits.
