Chapter 1366: The Maids Challenge ⑤

Maid Olympia, a festival of maids…… held once every 4 years and was apparently a major event. However, the location of said event is almost unknown, and only maids…… Or perhaps, audiences invited by the participants are informed of the event.

The location of the event seems to be different each time, and when the date is near, the location is announced by Ein-san through a network for maids.

The World Maids Association, another mysterious organization, is apparently the one in charge of the Maid Olympia, and as I had heard before, this Association’s President, Ein-san, seems to be the representative of the association.

The Maid Culture in this world is mostly due to Ein-san.

[……I see, if you want to concentrate on cheering for Lunamaria, I can’t insist on this matter then. If that’s the case, I will withdraw my request of asking you to be our Special Judge this time.]

[Thank you. But in the first place, I’m not qualified to be a judge for the Maid Olympia, right?]

In the first place, I’m not sure what they do in the Maid Olympia…… If it’s about competing in their skills as a maid, does that mean they’re competing with their tea brewing or sweeping skills?

If I think of it that way, I can enjoy it as some sort of competition…… I guess? I’m not really sure. If there’s something like a cooking competition, I think it would be fun to watch.

[No, Kaito-sama is the Maid Advisor certified by the World Maid Association, so your participation as the Judge wouldn’t be any problem.]

[……Maid Advisor? Me? How did that happen?]

When did I get certified for such a mysterious title? I have no clue when that happened, what that is, and I really wish that organization would stop putting that title on my forehead. What the heck is with people and one-sidedly making me part of the Maid World……

To begin with, I wouldn’t have any advice to give to maids……

[Back at the Six Kings Festival, Kaito-sama had reminded me of what it means to be a maid and what the pride of a maid is. The passionate words you told me at that time are still deeply engraved in my heart.]

[……………………]

……I did say something like that huh. Certainly, at that time, I, going along with my emotions and acting like a smart-ass, was somehow able to comfort the depressed Ein-san, who was saying she wasn’t a maid.

I had solved the maid-related worries of Ein-san…… The President of the World Maid Association and one of the most distinguished figures in the Maid World. And that’s why, I have now become this Maid Advisor…… I see, this is what they meant when they say people sometimes dig their own graves huh.

[……W- Well, in any case, that’s why I’ll be there as part of the regular audience.]

[Understood. I will do my best as the organizer to make the tournament satisfactory for Kaito-sama to watch.]

[……P- Please do your best.]

I don’t really know what I’m telling her to do her best but…… Well, whatever.

[Come to think of it, has the venue for this time’s event been decided already?]

[Yes, we are holding it in the Southern Demon Realm this time. I had asked for cooperation from Magnawell and Eingana. We have also secured the “prey” for the maids to hunt in the competition. I’ll give you a map later.]

[……Understood.]

It’s a competition to see who has the best skills as a maid, right? Why are words like prey and hunt getting? We shouldn’t be talking about a hunter’s tournament…… What the heck are maids……

[Speaking of which, this time, we actually had the pleasure of having Nebula-sama help us with the prizes.]

[Eh? You got something from Nebula?]

[Yes, when I came for my monthly visit to buy tea, I heard that they were now making their own teacups, so I looked at their creations and found that they were wonderful products.]

[Well, Nebula is amazing after all.]

As expected of Ein-san, being someone who stands at the top of maids, she seems to have a wonderful eye for detail. Yes, the ceramics made by Nebula and Illness-san are really wonderful.

So much so that, even though this may just be my personal favoritism towards my family acting up, I personally think it wouldn’t be strange if their products were to be lined up in a luxury store……

[In addition, they have created a number of wonderful products, such as that ingeniously crafted sugar, and I’m truly impressed.]

[I’m sure Nebula would also be happy to hear you say that, Ein-san.]

Unnn, unnn, thinking about it again makes me proud of her. Nebula is an amazing girl with a wealth of ideas and the dexterity to make them a reality.

Whether it’s sugar, chocolate or ceramics, she would always surprise me, making me look forward to seeing what she’ll do next.

[And so, I asked Nebula to prepare a specially designed tea set with the World Maid Association crest as the prize for the winner of the Maid Olympia. And as prizes for the top winners, we prepared an assortment of crafted sugar.]

[I see, so that’s how it was.]

[Yes, I’m really humbled by Nebula-sama for willingly accepting my request. With such great prizes, the friendly competition among the participants will be even more rewarding.]

[Fumu fumu, I’m looking forward to it.]

Well, I suppose she’s right. With Nebula’s creations as prizes, I think people will be more motivated and it will be a great competition to watch.

This might make me look forward to the Maid Olympia a little more.

Serious-senpai : [After saying all those complaints about Maid Olympia, that’s a large 180…… Idiot Parent-Mode Activated.]

? ? ? : [Well, Ein-san isn’t really trying to please him and was saying it with sincerity, so that must have put Kaito-san in such a good mood. He would be able to tell if someone’s just trying to flatter him with his Sympathy Magic after all.]
