《Kindred》Chapter 36 – Reading Miss’s Mind…
Advertisement
"Listen well, Latifa. As a personal maid of a noble miss, you always need to know what your master wants. Even before she says it."
I'm currently receiving a lesson on maid duties from Teddy.
I shall not be distracted by Teddy's shining bald head.
Therefore, I nod at him seriously.
"That's why I'm giving you a lesson right now." He says slowly
Hmm? What does he mean by that?
I tilt my head.
"Recall what Prince Si said earlier."
Just as Teddy said, I recall Prince Si's words.
Mei Mei, how about a dinner? Just the two of us?
"Did you recall?" Teddy asks.
"Awu." Yes. I answer him.
"No matter what, your Miss can't go on her own without her personal maid, right?"
Eh? Eeehhhh? Is that so???
Doesn't that mean I failed as a maid?!
"A personal servant must always be by his master's side. He can leave only if master gives the order. But Miss Meira would never give you the order to leave her side. That's what I figured after seeing the interaction between the two of you. Therefore, I, as Prince Si's personal servant, suggested something that would make you want to leave Miss's side." He says slowly.
Huh? What is he talking about?
Why would Miss want to give me what I want?
"You don't seem to understand."
"Didn't Miss Meira present you today with many items that she wanted you to have?" He asks me.
Yes, that's right.
Clothes, jewels, food.
Miss wanted to buy something for me the whole day.
"However, you refused each and every one of them. That's when she saw your face full of expectations when I suggested that I will teach you, she had to allow you to go. She wanted you to have something, but you didn't want anything. Therefore, she decided to let you go with me. Because you wanted to."

Hm? I don't understand...
"I determined that your miss won't order you to leave. Unless you want to leave her side on your own. Therefore, I suggested something that would tickle your interest and make you want to leave Miss Meira's side, leaving Prince Si and Miss Meira alone." Teddy explains.
"All in order to please my master. That is the duty of the personal servant." He adds.
I see!
Because of my interest in being a great maid like Sophia, Prince Si got what he wanted!
What a blunder!
I left Miss with that stealing, annoying, smug lord!
"If you want to be a great servant, you will need to learn everything about your miss first." Teddy says.
"Awuu?" Learn everything?
Teddy nods.
"Everything. Her likes and dislikes, her habits, her favourite color, her favorite smell, the length of her steps when she's in a bad mood."
Eh? What?
Putting her likes and dislikes aside.
The length of her steps when she's in a bad mood?
Wouldn't it better to just read her-
"Right. You basically need to read her mind. That's how you become a great maid." He says slowly.
But, that's not possible!
Reading Miss's mind... Becoming a Martial Saint would be easier!
"Although there are techniques which allow you to read minds of other people, these are very rare. The people in the whole world who have this technique can be counted on your fingers."
Then, it's impossible after all!
"However, by cultivating, one can perceive the changes in the aura around people more precisely." Teddy explains.
"Awuu?!" Really?!
"Latifa, you want to become a great maid like Lady Sophia, right?"
"Awu! Awu!" I answer while nodding.
"Do you know Lady Sophia's cultivation level?" Teddy asks me.
I shake my head.
I don't know Sophia's cultivation level.
She never talks about cultivation.
"Lady Sophia is Mid Martial Sage cultivator!" Teddy says with admiration.
Mid Martial Sage?!
How- No it's Sophia after all...
Huh? But...
Isn't the Quas Emperor the only cultivator in the entire Empire with Mid or higher Martial Sage cultivation?
... How cool!
As expected of Sophia!

GLADIUS // Eret X Reader
PHANTASM SERIES BOOK 4---Gladius, (noun): (in ancient Rome) a short sword.---Eret perked up as soon as you and Simon walked into the room, a wide and welcoming smile coming onto his face. He was softer looking than his father had been, but you could still see some of the similar traits. He had a head of thick dark curls, and the same sharp jaw that his father had had. He wasn't as bulky though - he was tall and thin - and his face was a lot more open. What separated him most from his father's likeness though was the colorful cape, and the large mirrored glasses he wore - swirling with colors reflected from the room. He stood from his seat when Maven let the doors swing shut behind her, that wide smile still on his face. "You must be the embassy.""And you must be King Eret." You said, stooping into a bow. "Oh, there's no need for that." Eret said as you rose from your bow. He stepped down from the dias where his throne sat - colorful cape trailing behind him - and came to stand in front of you, taking your hand instead. "I'm not really one for formalities." He grinned, shaking your hand. His palm was warm against yours, and you could feel some slight callouses - most likely from practicing his sword work.
