章節 14: 14. New members of...
"My lady," she moaned out. "If you need…" Her hand moved on her dress.
Thyra's eyebrow almost reached her forehead as the woman in question perfectly perceived the position of her flaccid wand without any struggle.
"As expected from the one I choose as my master." Thyra doesn't think the women of this world knew the use of lipstick. However, Thyra felt the puffy red lips of the woman in front of her were perfect for biting.
She didn't get the chance as the woman's hand slid down, grabbed the seed sack, and squeezed it.
"Ohhh! "It feels like it wasn't properly taken care of." The woman giggled. She grabbed Thyra's hand and put it on her ass, adding, "My lady, do you need a place to unload. I can…"
"There is no need for you to worry about that…"
A sudden interruption broke Thyra's trance. She looked to find that Hure had entered the room. There were two others following her.
"Cheee…" she stuck out her tongue to mock Hure before letting go of Thyra's ball sack. However, as she did, she came closer, whispering, "We can continue our check-up at night."
"MY LADY," Hure's call was a little forceful.
Thyra didn't know why, but Hure was unhappy about something. "What is it?"
"Nothing."
"Are you having mid-pregnancy mood swings?"
Hure didn't answer. Instead, she reported, "Why do you order me to send the youngest lady back after dinner?"
Thyra smiled but didn't answer. After all, she had no intention of holding such a small girl hostage. Although she was sure it wouldn't work, she still wanted Bella to be afraid.
"Wouldn't it be better to keep the youngest lady here? So that bitch won't dare to do something silly during the absence of the Viscount."
"Even a mother bunny will become aggressive when its baby is in danger. And, here we are talking about a bitch, I mean a dog. And I am not very fond of mad dogs."
The endearing smile on Thyra's face confused her more. Hure couldn't help asking, "Then wouldn't it be better not to touch the puppy at all?"
"I am getting annoyed by all the barking. I just need to make them fear me. A warning may be."
"But I don't think the viscountess would stop after what happened today."
"If she does, wouldn't that mean I have misunderstood her?"
"What?"
"She will try to do something silly. Being impatient, I think she will try to deal with me tonight."
"You know it, yet you did that?"
"Don't worry about it. Let me take care of it."
"But, my lady…."
Hure didn't get to complete her words before Thyra signalled her to stop.
"So, these are the girls you have chosen to replace you during this time?"
"Yes. This is Jullia. She is an old colleague of mine."
"Colleague?"
Hure hesitated momentarily, adding, "She used to serve the queen mother. She had left the palace with me."
Thyra couldn't help but observe the so-called 'colleague.' Thyra was sure that Jullia was also a trained one.
"I know, I look young. Although I was her colleague, I was ten years younger than her." Jullia made a seductive pose and said it with a smile.
"Younger? You should say you are older." Hure was quick to refute.
Thyra had no problem understanding that they had a very good relationship. Hure introduced the other two, explaining that both of them are adventurers. And they were trained by Hure when they were young.
"Aren't we looking for a maid?" Thyra was a little surprised.
"I have already trained enough maids. The two came with Aria to take care of daily necessities. I have made them sign the contract too."
"And what are Jullia and they going to do?"
Hure stared at Thyra for a moment, sighing, "My lady, you have changed."
Thyra could not understand her intentions, as Hure explained, "You've always been the type to pause and consider your words carefully. But now, you are more likely to act before thinking."
Thyra couldn't refute the fact. After all, it wasn't the first time she had heard something like this.
Her actions might seem random to onlookers, but she knew they were all part of a larger scheme. That's also why she waited until she knew where she stood in the hierarchy of the Viscount mansion before making any moves.
"I know after absorption of the essence, you have become stronger. But, your body is still weak, and you cannot fully control your essence."
Thyra sighed, asking, "What do you want to say?"
"As you have openly started going against that woman, she won't just sit back. Although you have unique monster essence, an experienced rare essence user might be able to defeat you."
"So they are more of a bodyguard who will act as a maid, right?"
"Partly correct." Jullie answered Thyra, continuing, "I can also warm your bed."
From the looks of her eyes, Thyra was sure Jullia wasn't joking. If given the chance, she might jump on her right now. Thyra wouldn't have minded it if not…
"So, you are an experienced one. So why don't we check what you can do tonight?"
All four pairs of eyes turned towards Thyra, demanding an explanation. "It is as Hure said. There is no way Bella would stop pestering me. As Justin is not here, she might act more blatantly."
"Oh!" Jullia was the first to catch up. "What can she do? She might send a few more soldiers."
"No, she won't directly send any soldiers." Hure refuted. "She will send someone in the dead of night. She will try to make it look like the work of someone from outside."
"Whatever it is, I can take care of them. There is no need to worry about it."
Thyra shook her head, smirking, "If I had something to worry about, do you think I would openly challenge her? I can take care of them myself."
"Then?"
"So why?"
Hure and Jullie asked at the same time.
"First comes shock, followed by disbelief, and then fear."
"Shock, disbelief, and fear?"
"When I attacked the soldier in the field, she was shocked. Even when I took care of the guards and took her daughter out of the mansion, she didn't believe I was strong enough to threaten her. So, I just have to make her fear me."
"And how are you going to do that?"
"I am not going to do anything. You guys are."
Thyra looked at them, explaining, "I have to hit it where it hurts. And it is your work to infiltrate the mansion, do your work, and leave without them knowing what happened. What you have to do is…"
Thyra explained from 'p' to the 'n' of her plan.
"My lady," Hure was shocked as she heard Thyra's plan, "even if Bella did something like that, you shouldn't do this. After all, Justin is your strongest supporter."
Thyra sighed, "I am letting them go because of Justin. Do you really think I would let that bitch go if not for Justin?"
