She then sat down on Shikime Natsu's bed quite naturally, as if she were treating his room as her own.

"Ara, I didn't expect Shikime-kun to be so bold, inviting two cute young girls to serve you in a single night."

Beside him, Sakayanagi Arisu chuckled, her purple eyes filled with a teasing glint.

"That isn't something a maid should be asking about. I hope today's maid isn't a bad one."

Shikime Natsu laughed without reservation, his gaze sweeping over Sakayanagi Arisu. As she leaned in closer, he activated Master Thief—hmm... she wasn't hiding anything.

Sakayanagi Arisu felt a sense of unease as Shikime Natsu leaned in, as if her entire being had been seen through.

"Go change back into your maid outfit. A maid who doesn't wear her uniform simply won't do."

Shikime Natsu sat in his chair and spoke to Sakayanagi Arisu. Even if she was related to Chairman Sakayanagi, what did that have to do with him?

He was the winner now.

"Masumi, what brings you here today?"

Only then did Shikime Natsu's gaze shift back to Kamuro Masumi.

"I'm here to watch you, to make sure you don't do anything reckless."

Kamuro Masumi crossed her arms, sat with her legs crossed, and looked at Shikime Natsu with a very serious expression.

"Then why didn't you come yesterday?"

Shikime Natsu looked at Kamuro Masumi with some curiosity. Logically speaking, if someone truly intended to do something, shouldn't they have acted on the very first day?

By the second day, everything would have already been settled. Of course, given Sakayanagi Arisu's constitution, if things had actually been "settled," she probably would have been done for.

"I forgot yesterday."

That was the truth. It was unexpected that after a day had passed, Kamuro Masumi had actually remembered. This girl's memory was truly strange.

"Alright, give my shoulders a massage. Your pressure is far too weak."

Shikime Natsu leaned back in his chair and spoke to Sakayanagi Arisu, who had already changed into her outfit.

Kamuro Masumi's gaze fell upon Sakayanagi Arisu. This girl had actually put on the maid outfit, though fortunately, it wasn't anything overly revealing; it covered her from head to toe.

It seemed Sakayanagi Arisu wasn't the frivolous person she had imagined, just someone who liked to talk big. That made sense; if she were related to Chairman Sakayanagi, he would never allow such behavior, let alone Sakayanagi Arisu herself.

"You're quite quiet today. Did something happen, Sakayanagi?"

Shikime Natsu noticed that Sakayanagi Arisu was speaking much less than yesterday. Had she suddenly lost her desire to talk?

"Ara, it's rare for me to stay silent today, all so the two of you could chat to your heart's content. What, does Shikime-kun prefer talking to me over chatting with Kamuro-san?"

Sakayanagi Arisu said with a soft laugh, immediately trying to stir up conflict. One could only say she was truly Sakayanagi Arisu.

Of course, that wasn't what she was actually thinking. She only wanted to end this week of humiliation as quickly as possible.

After yesterday's confrontation, Sakayanagi Arisu had to admit that Shikime Natsu was a truly detestable guy, not just in his words, but in his actions as well.

This guy actually made a frail girl massage his back. Just how stiff were his shoulders? She couldn't knead or pound them at all; instead, her own hands were starting to ache.

And then there was the voice recorder from yesterday. Sakayanagi Arisu still couldn't figure out how he had discovered it. She had hidden it so well in the pocket of her maid outfit; from the outside, it should have been impossible to detect, let alone be taken without her noticing.

"Not at all. Talking to you is completely boring."

Shikime Natsu denied it flatly. His words left Sakayanagi Arisu with a vein throbbing on her forehead. If he thought talking to her was boring, why did he keep initiating conversation?

To be honest, Sakayanagi Arisu had initially wanted to use rumors to crush Shikime Natsu, but... after thinking about it, it was completely futile. Shikime Natsu was thick-skinned; such things wouldn't affect him in the slightest.

As for affecting his standing in the class?

That was even more impossible. At least until Shikime Natsu clearly faltered, he held absolute control over Class A. Especially after his selfless act of distributing points yesterday—one million personal points, given away just like that. That wasn't the kind of nerve an ordinary person possessed.

Did this guy have no weaknesses at all?

Sakayanagi Arisu fell into distress, pounding Shikime Natsu's shoulders hard, though her own small hands were hurting terribly.

This massage was nothing short of torture for her!

"Forget it, Sakayanagi. I suggest you never pursue a career in massage. Your technique is truly terrible; even your back-pounding is completely useless."

Shikime Natsu shook his head, his tone dripping with disappointment.

Kamuro Masumi was shocked by the way Shikime Natsu treated Sakayanagi Arisu. At the very least... she had never seen this side of him before. He was so harsh, especially toward a girl like Sakayanagi Arisu who possessed a "weakness buff." Most people would probably soften their stance a little, right? But Shikime Natsu showed no mercy.

Was it because Sakayanagi Arisu was a traitor, or was it because... she was too flat, and that was why his attitude was so poor?

No, no, there was no way it was the latter.

But then, how did Shikime Natsu treat her back then... though she hadn't actually done anything yet, had she?

Kamuro Masumi suddenly remembered that she had only entertained the thought at the time, but hadn't acted on it.

Just the thought of being treated like that by Shikime Natsu made her feel incredibly annoyed.

Yes, extremely annoyed.

"Masumi, what would you like to drink? I have orange juice, apple juice, and milk in my fridge."

Shikime Natsu's gaze landed on Kamuro Masumi beside him.

"Milk is fine."

Kamuro Masumi did not make any "or" choices at this moment; after all, three options had been provided.

Sakayanagi Arisu took a temporary rest, her wrists feeling a bit sore.

"Sakayanagi..."

Hearing Shikime Natsu call her name, the corners of Sakayanagi Arisu's mouth couldn't help but curl into an arc; this guy still had a shred of humanity, it seemed.

"I want a cup of hot milk too, go prepare it quickly, two servings."

Chapter 52: Milk Worth 3,000 Points Tastes So Good

Humiliation! Naked, blatant humiliation!

Even though Sakayanagi Arisu did not show it at this moment, Kamuro Masumi, sitting to the side, could still feel the boundless resentment suppressed within that small body.

However, the bet between the two was indeed exactly that; if Sakayanagi Arisu was to act as a maid, then doing such things was naturally nothing more than normal.

Still, Sakayanagi Arisu was quite angry. Of course, she did not lash out; she would firmly remember what Shikime Natsu had done to her, and once she won in the future, she would humiliate this guy properly.

Sakayanagi Arisu had originally thought her own personality was already bad enough, but she never expected there to be someone even worse than her. It was truly infuriating.

"I understand."

Sakayanagi Arisu took a deep breath, suppressing the rage in her heart. She walked to the refrigerator, opened it, took out a carton of milk, prepared two cups, and poured the milk into them before heating it up.

Fortunately, heating it did not require much physical exertion, otherwise, Sakayanagi Arisu really wouldn't have been able to do it.

"Is this really okay?"

Kamuro Masumi frowned as she spoke.

"Don't worry, don't worry, Sakayanagi isn't the type of person to hold a grudge, right?"

Shikime Natsu raised his voice slightly so that Sakayanagi Arisu could hear him.

"Ara, of course not. After all, it's a promise; I won't take it to heart."

As if! She had already noted everything down! She would definitely pay him back a hundredfold in the future!

Before the eyes of Shikime Natsu, Sakayanagi Arisu's little schemes had nowhere to hide. As expected, she was indeed taking it to heart. Then again, if she were treated this way, she would certainly pay it back viciously as well.

"Please enjoy."

Sakayanagi Arisu acted just like a real maid, placing the two cups of hot milk on the table.

"Here, Masumi, this is yours."

Shikime Natsu handed a cup to Kamuro Masumi; the handle of the cup was not hot to the touch.

"Mm, this milk tastes better than the kind I heat up myself."

Shikime Natsu nodded with great satisfaction. Sure enough, milk heated by someone else tasted completely different from milk he heated himself.

"Is that so? That's truly wonderful."

Sakayanagi Arisu said, feigning pleasant surprise.

"Do you want to have a cup too?"

Shikime Natsu glanced at Sakayanagi Arisu.

"Is it okay for a maid like me to have some?"

Sakayanagi Arisu raised an eyebrow; she didn't think Shikime Natsu would be that kind-hearted.

"Of course it is."

Shikime Natsu picked up the milk in his hand and took a sip.

"Then I won't stand on ceremony."

Sakayanagi Arisu looked at Shikime Natsu with some surprise. Could it be that this guy had finally found his conscience?

Hmph, even if he had found his conscience, she would never forgive this guy!

She would make this detestable guy know that those who offended her would not have a good end!

It was too late to try and curry favor with her now.

"That will be 3,000 points."

As Sakayanagi Arisu took a sip, Shikime Natsu looked at her with a smirk.

This single sentence caused Sakayanagi Arisu's hand to freeze instantly.

3,000 points? For a cup of hot milk?

Even a rip-off joint wouldn't be this excessive, would it?

"Ara, Shikime-kun really knows how to joke."

Sakayanagi Arisu let out a light laugh, seemingly trying to diffuse the awkwardness.

"Sakayanagi, did you know? When you're at a restaurant and ask a colleague if they want a serving, it doesn't necessarily mean you're offering to treat them."
