I Became the Maid of the Lout Prince

Chapter 108

Although there were various events during the entrance exam, Ethan and I successfully entered the Swordsmanship Department and Magic Department of the academy, respectively.

We also confirmed that the key characters of the Swordsmanship and Magic Departments had passed their respective entrance exams.

We couldn’t wait for all of the remaining entrance exams that would continue for over a week, so we could only confirm the characters in these two departments that Ethan and I had applied for.

Among the characters I confirmed that passed, the one that troubled my mind the most was, of course, the protagonist’s name.

Gyeongmwajogyegigwat Volt.

It was a shocking name that felt like it would chip away at my mind just by imagining it in my head.

Probably anyone who sees this name, that looks like it was created by randomly smashing a keyboard, would think the same.

Of course, no matter how strange a name the Hero has that’s hard to even pronounce, it doesn’t actually affect what happens in Luminor Academy.

It’s just a difference between whether the player can play with more immersion from the player’s perspective or just play casually, thinking that a game is just a game.

And Gyeongmwa... anyway, that guy’s name was clearly closer to the latter for anyone who saw it.

Of course, if it was really about controlling the protagonist as if playing a game, it wouldn’t matter. Who cares what name you give your character?

However, believe it or not, this world is now the undeniable reality where I live and breathe, and in reality, I simply couldn’t trust a Hero who named himself like that.

Well, whether I can trust the Hero or not, the world will go on as it is, and the inhabitants of this world will treat the protagonist with that strange name just like a normal hero.

I, too, had to respond as normally as possible when I encountered that hero.

I could be certain in my heart that if I got involved with this person as a fellow transmigrator, it would undoubtedly lead to unfavorable entanglements.

“Gyeongmwajogyegigwat Volt. Gyeongmwajogyegigwat Volt. Gyeongmwajo... ge, Gyeongmwajogyegigwat Volt...”

If I mispronounced it at all, it would surely raise suspicion.

No matter how strangely the protagonist’s name was created, it was treated as a normal name in Luminor Academy, so stammering while pronouncing it would also be dangerous.

As we were to depart for the academy again from today, I needed to memorize it thoroughly.

“...Gyeongmwajogyegigwat Volt. Good.”

With this, the plan to not get involved with the protagonist was somewhat complete. I should respond normally while pretending to be ‘Simple-minded Maid Lilith’ as much as possible, even if we meet.

If he tries to get involved with Ethan in a strange way......

...

.....I’ll just block that part.

I had clothes and daily necessities needed for staying at the academy for about four months, study materials, and other things needed for emergency funds or maid duties.

I packed all the things I needed securely, so it was now time to board the carriage heading to Luminor Academy.

In doing so, we’d enter Part 2 of the story; the start of the main story of the original game, Luminor Academy: Age of Sword and Magic.

As I’ve mentioned once before, the main story of Luminor Academy is divided into five parts.

Excluding Parts 1 and 5, which can be seen as the prologue and epilogue, the actual main story of the game could be said to start from Part 2, when you enter the academy.

“Th-thank you for staying with a scatterbrain maid like me for years... If it weren’t for Miss Lilith and Isabel, I-I probably would have lived being bullied by Ariana and Alicia forever...”

“You’re not a scatterbrain maid, Senior Catherine. Neither Lilith nor I think of you as scatterbrained.”

“...No, more than that, it’s not like we’re parting forever. We’ll return to the mansion for our summer vacation after the first semester, so why are you crying like this is the last time you’ll be seeing us?”

“B-but still... Un-until now, I’ve worked hard because you two were here... If both of you suddenly leave for the academy like this... Uck, WAAAAAAH~!”

“Sigh...”

“Don’t cry, senior. Please stop!”

Catherine is unable to let go of me and Isabel easily, probably because we have a history of working together as a team of junior maids in the past.

Unlike when she sent me off alone about ten days ago, it seems her emotions finally overflowed when she had to send Isabel off as well.

In two to three years, Catherine will also enter the ranks of the senior maids, but I wonder if it’s okay to promote such a delicate person to a senior maid of a duke’s family.

Her working speed and skills were still the fastest and most reliable among the three of us, though.

Thanks to Isabel’s personality-fitting soothing and comforting, Catherine was able to somehow stop crying and see us off with a smiling face.

After finishing our goodbyes, the three of us – me, Ethan, and Isabel – finally boarded the carriage heading to the academy.

“Are the farewells over?”

“Yes. I’m sorry for keeping you waiting, young master.”

“It’s okay. We’ll be apart for three months, so you should have enough time to talk.”

“That’s true, but we should still leave before it gets too late.”

“Right, Maid. And Isabel, get in the carriage too.”

“Yes, Young Master Ethan!”

Isabel entered the carriage, following Ethan and me with a particularly joyful expression.

It seemed she was quite happy to visit the academy with the position of my exclusive maid.

Well, it’s not incomprehensible that she’s so happy, given that as an ordinary commoner, she would rarely have the chance to visit the academy, even as an exclusive maid.

By the way, the reason Harold didn’t come out to see his son off was simple. While Ethan and I were away taking the academy entrance exam, Harold had left to go somewhere and hadn’t returned yet.

As a result, Ethan’s last duel with Harold somehow fizzled out, and of course, there was no instance of me letting Ethan touch my chest when he won against Harold.

In the end, Harold didn’t return to the mansion until today, the day we departed for the academy again, so it’s safe to say that Ethan won’t have a chance to touch my chest for at least three to four months.

Even if Ethan tries to make other conditions to touch my chest again or proposes other conditions, I plan to refuse him thoroughly.

The days of moaning in front of this guy every two weeks are now over. ...At least, during the semester.

As I was thinking about this after boarding the carriage, the carriage bearing the Blackwood family crest started moving with the sound of horse driving.

The carriage carrying the three of us – one new student of the Swordsmanship Department of Luminor Academy, one exclusive maid to assist the lady entering the academy, and me with the peculiar status of being both a new student of the Magic Department and the young master’s exclusive maid – moved along the southwest road.

We moved towards Luminor Academy, where both expected and unexpected encounters were waiting.
