When Shien left the room with Lasha and headed toward the dining room, he discovered that this maid didn’t seem to have just done something that made him shut down, but she also did plenty of things that made other people shut down as well.
For example…
“M-mister Shien…!”
“Your maid is just way too amazing!”
“All the work was already completed by the time we woke up!”
“And it’s done far better than we could have as well!”
“J-just how did she do that?”
“We don’t have any work to do now!”
Those are the panicked crying that surrounded Shien when he entered the dining room. They were from the various maids who have all gotten ready to start their work for the day, but instead ended up discovering that all their work had already been finished.
In addition…
“Breakfast…”
“That maid already made it…”
“Ugh, so delicious…”
“The stuff I made were garbage…”
“I’ll go hand my resignation to the butler in a bit…”
“Please bring us along as well…”
That was what Shien saw from the various chefs when he entered the dining room. They were all on their knees at the door to the kitchen, currently broken like they’ve lost all reason for living.
Besides that, there’s also…
“… Mister Shien, the gardeners just came by to tell me that the yard’s flower garden and hedges have all been properly trimmed, and the resulting garden arrangement is practically a work of art. They were struck hard, and they’re planning on resigning to go back and return their profession.”
The butler sneakily whispered such a thing to Shien with a complicated expression.
Besides that, there were also many many things that were all completed without anyone realizing while Shien was asleep.
Shien just stood there, dumbfounded, for some time. He even ended up taking a tour around the Latrard house, and he ended discovering that the entire manse’s cleanliness went up by more than an order of magnitude. Every corner was utterly purged of dust. Even the restrooms and the bath was completely cleaned until it shined. The outside gardens are also arranged like its an otherworldly wonder.
The Latrard home is now like it’s from an anime or something. It’s now clean and beautiful to the point where it was nearly shining.
Hn. The breakfast that Lasha prepared was also unbelievably delicious. It make one feel like all the food they’ve eaten before are all complete garbage.
With all that, it’s no wonder that everyone was so deeply crushed.
It’s because it’s not even a question of whether or not it’s possible to compete anymore. Rather, just looking at such work could only make everyone feel like their own work is utterly incompetent and completely unworthy of consideration.
The most important part of it though, is that this god-like work was all done by Lasha without anyone noticing.
She didn’t alert a single person during all this. Not even the paroling guards managed to notice a trace of her. In such a situation, Lasha had completed everything without the slightest notice.
This made Shien go silent for some time. Afterward, he finally understood something.
“The reason that Lasha’s Flowersong Mansion was so beautiful was only because of this maid’s work, right?”
It’s wondrous, otherworldly beauty wasn’t something inherent at all, but something created huh?
Anywhere that Lasha stays will end up that way then?
That maid’s completely broken!
Of course, the person in question didn’t react at all. She instead continued as if it was all only natural.
That’s because…
“That is my job.”
Lasha simply calmly declared.
Thus, Shien had seen a completely unscientific scene.
“P-please allow me to study under you! Onee-sama!”
“I won’t ask to be accepted as your student! I only beg to be allowed to stay by you as your servant!”
“No! It’s fine to just treat us like your slaves and train us!”
“Please accept us! Onee-sama!”
“Lasha onee-sama!”
“Kya!”
All the maids of the household knelt down before Lasha, pulling at her skirt. Their eyes weren’t just flashing with stars anymore, but actual hearts.
What’s most terrifying though is that near the end, some even started screaming like they’ve found meaning to living on.
In the end, even the chefs and gardeners knelt down as well, calling Lasha onee-sama all the while.
At that point, Shien only had one thing in his head.
“It’s over.”
Those guys have all gone mad. There’s no saving them anymore.
