CHAPTER 1106: CHAPTER 823: LUNA: "YOUR HIGHNESS, LET ME PROTECT YOU!

"Forget it, I don’t want to think about it anymore."

At least for tonight, I don’t want to ponder those complex and meaningless things.

So, Reiger stretched out his hands, pulling the alluring figures of the young girls into his embrace, and fell into a deep sleep.

Tonight was destined not to be sleepless.

...

The next day, in the morning.

When Luna woke up, the first thing she did was quickly get herself ready and dashed towards Liz’s bedroom as if she were in a hurry.

No choice.

"His Highness must have been deceived by that cunning man again, just like before, now leaning against him in such an unseemly manner..."

Every time she thought of waking up Her Highness early in the morning recently, only to find that infuriating scene in the bedroom every day, Luna felt more than uncomfortable.

Her Highness...

She’s only 15!

Though not exactly young, and in some areas, even bigger than myself... but how naïve and innocent is Her Highness, unversed in worldly affairs?

Such a pure and innocent highness should be cherished by others, so why does she have to serve someone and keep them company every day?

Where in the world is such reasoning?

Doesn’t that man feel guilty for doing such things?

Luna kept cursing angrily in her heart, but the more she cursed, the more uncomfortable she felt.

Recalling the past, when there was no one else to talk to around, how close and dependent Her Highness was on her?

But now, Luna always feels that Her Highness has changed, becoming less reliant on her.

She has someone she cares about more now, someone she’s closer to, not sticking to her like before.

In the past, no one else but me would be cuddling with Her Highness as she slept, ate, or even bathed together.

Now, if I so much as say a few words about that man, Her Highness hurriedly runs out to defend him...

Thinking about this situation, Luna felt increasingly sour, even her mouth was sour.

In a way, Luna was actually very much like Liz, a person who feared loneliness and solitude.

As Liz’s personal maid, Luna usually had no opportunity to leave Liz’s chambers, always serving by her side, seldom interacting with others.

In such circumstances, Luna had viewed everything about Liz as her entire life.

Luna also always believed that she was the only one able to accompany the unpopular highness in the palace.

Who could have imagined that after just a short time away from the palace, Her Highness would change upon return.

She no longer loved her, only having eyes for that man.

She’s no longer the little darling of Her Highness!

Whenever she had such thoughts, Luna had the urge to cry.

Perhaps, it was precisely because of this that Luna was so relentless in targeting Reiger?

Otherwise, even if she didn’t know better, Luna understood well that a Sword Saint is not someone a humble maid like her can confront easily.

In short, she had gone all out.

"For Her Highness, I must persist in fighting against evil forces!"

Luna clenched her small fists, quickening her pace by a considerable margin.

No way around it, Luna knew all too well the state in which the three of them lay in a single bed now.

Though Her Highness had explained multiple times that this was all a prank by the lady who strangely resembled her, Luna always felt that if this continued, they would eventually get into trouble.

Two unmarried girls sleeping with a strong man every day was an extremely dangerous situation, not to mention the three of them weren’t clothed!

If nothing happens, all those study materials I’ve read would be in vain!

I must insist on dragging them out of bed every day, to prevent any accidents in the future!

"I will protect Her Highness!"

Clenching her small fists, the resolute little maid arrived at her destination in the next minute.

"Time to wake up! Your Highness!"

Having already prepared herself mentally to dress Her Highness as quickly as possible, not giving that vile man any chance to take advantage, Luna didn’t wait for a response from inside before pushing the door open.

A few seconds later...

"No! Your Highness ahhhh....!"

The little maid’s lament echoed throughout the entire bedroom.

Her voice was indescribably tragic.

...

"Die, villain!"

In the bedroom’s dining room, Reiger, who had just washed up, sat down to enjoy breakfast, was met with an anticipated attack.

Luna pushed the dining room door open with force, storming in from outside with red eyes, tears in her eyes, furiously charging with a kitchen knife towards Reiger.

"Hmm, this bread is nicely toasted."

Reiger picked up a piece of toasted bread from the dining table, leisurely nibbling on it, he casually got up and, as if taking a casual walk, brushed past Luna charging towards him.

"Don’t think you can run!"

Completely unaware of her weak combat capabilities, Luna, missing her strike, immediately turned around, stabbing again towards Reiger’s back.

Whether intentional or not, the knife in Luna’s hand aimed precisely at Reiger’s side waist.

Yes, it meant she was ready to stab through Reiger’s kidney.

"Oh, I forgot to grab the milk."

Seemingly oblivious to the malicious threat to his kidney, Reiger, as if suddenly remembering something, patted his forehead and turned around to walk back towards the dining table.

This turn, again, just happened to brush past Luna, avoiding her kidney attack.

"Argh!"

Missing another strike, Luna stomped her foot several times in frustration, nearly hurting her own foot, then cried out.

"You vile man! Stop dodging!"

Facing the little maid’s baseless accusation, Reiger, just having returned to the dining table and picking up a glass of milk, lifted his head in surprise and looked over at her.

"Oh, you’re here?"

Just that simple sentence, broke Luna’s defense on the spot.

"You... you...!"

The little maid was already furious, unable to speak coherently, she shakily drew a second knife from under her skirt, forcing Reiger to finally drop his pretense.

"... Where are you hiding those knives?"

Reiger’s mouth twitched.

Unfortunately, the little maid paid no attention to his sarcasm.

"Give back Her Highness’ purity!"

With tears in her eyes, the maid shouted, brandishing her two knives, charging headlong into Reiger’s arms.

"But... how does one give that back?"

Reiger muttered while turning aside, brushing past the little maid for the third time, avoiding her grief-stricken attacks.

Following this, the two of them engaged (or so it seemed) a few more times in the dining room, brushing past each other multiple times, filling the room with chaotic noises, even disarraying the dining table and chairs.

"L-Luna!"

Just then, the little princess finally finished getting herself presentable and rushed in hurriedly.

"Don’t be rash, Luna!"

Liz quickly held onto Luna rushing past her, hastily pleading.

"Let me go!" However, Luna refused to listen, ignoring the pleadings of her dearest master, struggling fiercely and shouted: "Let me kill him! Kill the beast who dared lay hands on Her Highness!"

"No Luna!" Liz, seemingly frightened, pleaded pitifully: "I’m the master’s attendant! If you endanger the master’s safety... I’ll have to protect him!"

These words drew responses simultaneously from Reiger and Luna.

"Isn’t that not the main point?"

One criticized, one shouted, leaving the little princess stunned there.

Their farce gradually became a three-person spectacle, amplifying the clamorous noise in the dining room.

"?"

Without her clothes properly on, but with a blanket in hand shielding the front, Yuloli slowly emerged, tilting her head as she witnessed the chaos, a question mark appeared above her head.

That morning’s breakfast was particularly lively, exceptionally boisterous.
