for them to be able to endure.

This was especially true for Lumia and Melika. They were already panicking from the idea of Sara’s arrival and intention to move in. Then, after learning that Airi is actually also the Dragon Demon of the Six Great Demon Lords, they nearly fainted on the spot.

“S-so I was actually living under the same roof as the Dragon Demon…”

“I-I actually even bathed together with the Dragon Demon…”

Those two girls were nearly unable to withstand such a stimulating revelation, so they looked like they were on the verge of breaking apart.

Given that, making them stay around in the meeting really was just way too harsh for them.

Therefore, Vivian and Diere took those two girls and left.

The girls were all living in one of the side houses. They were set a certain distance from the main mansion, which is around ten minutes away while walking normally, which can be considered rather far as it goes.

If not for that, a group of girls of marriageable age staying in the home of a man in his vigorous years will certainly end up generating a certain amount of rumors.

Right now, the only ones living in the main mansion was Shien and Airi.

However, it wasn’t just Shien and Airi hosting Sara’s group.

“Your tea.”

Lasha appeared out of nowhere and delivered the tea. She continuously placed one teacup after another before everyone there with a completely calm expression.

However, Sara was staring intently at Lasha the entire time. Her gaze never wavered from Lasha since the moment she appeared.

Behind Sara, Jacinta was similarly staring at Lasha with a stiff expression on his face. It was as if he was seeing something unbelievable.

Jace and Lieze on the other hand just looked completely confused. They glanced at each other like they had no idea just what was going on.

Seeing the demons acting the way they are now, Shien still remembered that their expressions were quite easy going back at the very start.

However, after Lasha appeared, Sara and Jacinta’s had started showing some intriguing reactions.

When Sara saw Lasha, her expression suddenly changed and her breathing greatly sped up.

Jacinta was even worse off. When Lasha showed up, his entire body shook and nearly ended up screaming out in shock.

Lasha on the other hand not only showed no sign of fear when faced with the sovereign of the demon race and a demon commander, she even continued to provide service from the side with calmness and perfect poise the entire time.

This gave Shien quite a few questions. Airi was utterly silent, not saying a word.

Right now, Shien and Sara were sitting facing each other. Airi was also sitting to the side. Jacinta’s group however were standing behind Sara, allowing Lasha to quietly return to Shien’s side after she was done serving up the tea.

Only then did Sara finally barely manage to withdraw her gaze.

“You seem to have quite a special maid, Lord Bayztrot.”

Sara seemed to have come up with some unknown thoughts and, after taking a deep breath, she said something like that.

Shien raised an eyebrow, glanced over to the still placid looking Lasha at his side, and then turned back to Sara.

“Lady Moon Demon really does seem to like your jokes.” Shien smiled without it reaching his eyes, “This isn’t my maid. I don’t believe that the sovereign of the demon world would be ignorant to that extent, after all.”

Sara just smiled at that without admitting to it.

Of course she knew that this maid wasn’t actually Shien’s.

“If I’m not remembering it wrong, she should be the maid of that Old Demon Faction girl named Leisha, right?”

The words from Sara’s mouth proved that she did indeed control information to that respect.

“It’s former Old Demon Faction, you know?”

Shien replied without actually answering the real question.

“Where is this former member of the Old Demon Faction now then?” Sara asked with a smile that didn’t reach her eyes, “For her to actually leave her important maid with lord Bayztrot here, that former Old Demon Faction member must have quite a good relationship with you, no?”

“That, I’m afraid, is your misunderstanding.” Shien shook his head and spoke like he had other things on his mind, “I just encountered her a couple of times, that all. Would Lady Sara believe me if I said something like that?”

“Encountered her a couple of times you say?” Sara spoke pointedly, “Would someone who only encountered you a couple of times really hand over her important maid to serve you?”

“Who knows?” Shien shrugged while speaking somewhat solemnly, “Maybe she thought I was handsome and trustworthy, and that was why she did what she did. Who can say after all.”

“Pff.” Sara couldn’t help the laugh that erupted out of her mouth, “You really do know how to joke around, Lord Bayztrot.”

“…” Shien’s face twitched a few times as he got the urge to hit her.

Although he did indeed purposefully say it in a lighthearted manner, he was still really unhappy at the response that he got.

He was calling himself handsome after all, and the result was Sara then laughing and calling it a joke?

Wasn’t that basically the same as trying to call him ugly?

If not for the fact that he knew that there was no way that he could run, Shien really would have wanted to give her a slap.

Of course, that slap would definitely not be swung at her face.

If the other party was a man, then Shien would obviously be slapping him in the face, but if was a voluptuous beauty, then it has to be aimed at her butt instead.

Don’t go asking why now. Only an idiot would ask that.

Thus, Shien held himself back from rolling his eyes at her with all his might and finally moved on to the main issue.

“Say now, Lady Moon Demon, given all your responsibilities, you must be quite the busy person. So you wouldn’t really be thinking about staying here at my place, right?”

Shien bluntly said it out loud.
