Episode 11. Emilia (2)
“Hello! I’m Kyle Palan!”
“I’m Jack Wilde.”
“Emilia Siegfried.”
“············”.
Three people each sitting on the sofa in the living room.
All of them are people who have applied for my trainee.
But the woman on the far right…
A spy belonging to the Secret Service of the Trud Kingdom.
She is also the younger sister of the protagonist, Hurt Locker Siegfried.
‘It has come.’
It may have been a trivial event in the original, but it has become quite important to me now.
This is because Emilia is the only bridge between the Secret Service and the protagonist, in a position to desperately stop the spy agency’s plan for imperial sabotage.
If you do, you can kidnap it and use it as a negotiation card with the main character.
······not. what am i thinking now
“I will explain the working environment. You are welcome to commute to work, but basically, we will provide you with lodging and meals. And we will leave all housework such as cleaning and laundry to you.”
“Oh. I don’t know how to do laundry.”
“I do a little cleaning….”
“············”.
The loser came out right away.
No, does it make sense to say that you don’t know how to do laundry when you’re applying as an apprentice?
When I think about it, I remember that in the original story, except for Emilia, everyone described it as nothing.
But I didn’t know that the setting would appear so convenient.
“How about Emilia?”
“Everything is fine.”
“Then I’ll make Emilia-san as the attendant. You two, please go back.”
“Ahhhh…”
don’t be sorry Guys who can’t even do laundry. have no conscience
Who else was Kyle?
Anyway, after sending them back, I sat down with Emilia.
Now the real negotiation begins.
“Are you going to commute?”
“No. I will stay in the dormitory.”
okay. I thought so.
That way, you will be able to stay at the Imperial University for 24 hours and collect information.
“I’ll give you a detailed explanation of the working environment. First of all, you have to clean the house and do the laundry every day, and you have to cook three meals a day, breakfast, lunch and dinner. I pay for the food, but Emilia’s job is to buy ingredients. And then… …”.”
“In short, you’re looking forward to the role of a housekeeper. It’s a familiar job, so there’s no problem at all.”
Also.
Emilia was thoroughly educated as a maid before entering the Empire.
I said it all because it wouldn’t be a problem even if I was hired by an upper-class family.
Maybe I’ll do it on my own, even if I don’t have to give instructions one by one.
“Then the king-“
“1000 Tyrion.”
“············”.
Emilia’s mouth was closed for a moment at the resolute word.
The monthly salary is 10,000 won. No matter how much room and board is provided, I think this is too much.
But Emilia only kept her expression with a faint smile on her face.
Is this also a pro spy?
He thoroughly hides his emotions and shows only the mask necessary for the mission.
In that sense, Emilia is completely specialized in spies.
Perhaps all the emotions and expressions she shows me are false.
“Are you referring to a monthly salary of 1000 Tyrion?”
“That’s right. Is it too little? So, even now, someone else-“
“No. Enough.”
Emilia answered with a gentle smile. He’s probably swearing excitedly behind that smile…
Even if he beat the king like this, Emilia wouldn’t be able to refuse.
Now that Hurt Locker has failed to enter the university, Emilia is the only person who can infiltrate Imperial University.
Now that the unprecedented situation of being a top-ranking commoner has occurred, Imperial University must have been the top priority for the intelligence service, so I can’t give up.
In fact, you can eat it for free if you want, but that seems a bit too much.
I’ll have to raise my salary later.
If you can afford to pay back your investment, you will be able to afford it.
If Emilia quits her apprenticeship, even if she’s in a hurry, I’ll be in trouble too.
If the eyes of the Imperial University were to disappear, the Intelligence Bureau might use more radical measures.
For now, it’s best to keep the intelligence agency’s activities as original as possible and within my expectations.
“I’m done.”
“Then may I take a look around the mansion now?”
“I’ll guide you.”
It was the moment I was about to get up after writing the contract.
rumbling-
“············”.
“···········?”
A roar rang out from my boat.
Embarrassed, I closed my eyes tightly and sat back down.
“Puu, sorry.”
“No. It’s been a long time since I’ve eaten…”
“Then I’ll make dinner for you.”
Emilia burst out laughing and walked over to the kitchen and put on her apron.
Her smile was dazzling as she looked at me with her hair tied back.
Even that smile is acting…
I feel a little bitter.
I’m in a position where I can’t see the real face of the character I’ve created.
“Wait a minute. I’ll be the colonel soon.”
Living in such a large mansion and hiring a maid makes me feel rich.
The mansion doesn’t belong to me, and the maid is a spy from an enemy country who came to watch over me.
“It’s done.”
After a while, Emilia laid out the plates on the table.
Bacon and Omurice.
It seemed that I ate food that I could cook quickly considering the circumstances of my stomach.
‘Lookup.’
[bacon]
[Description: It has just been baked and is hot. It is a common ready-made product.]
[Omurice]
[Description: It has just been made and is warm. The taste is comparable to that of a first-class chef.]
I tried looking up just in case, but there was no content that said it was poisonous.
The taste was… with a little exaggeration, it was like a high-class restaurant dish.
Even though bacon is already cooked and sold.
The combination of properly seasoned rice and soft omelette was fantastic.
There must have been no sauce, no spices, or anything, but I’m just curious how they got this flavor.
“I ate well. It was very tasty.”
“Yes? I’m glad it suits your taste.”
There is probably no one in this world who doesn’t like it.
Because Emilia’s cooking skills were set at the highest level.
A thoughtless setting at that time would be so helpful.
“Then I’ll show you around the mansion now.”
“like.”
He took Emilia around the mansion and introduced her.

Just like Marie did to me a few days ago…
We discussed and decided on specific things about where I sleep and when to clean and do laundry.
I decided to give Emilia a large bedroom.
As a result, the sun was setting.
“That’s the training room.”
“What is a training room…?”
“It’s a place where I study and train my body. I’m going to prohibit entry into that place. You won’t be able to enter because of the barrier anyway.”
“all right.”
It was Emilia who responded immediately, but I felt that her eyes were unusual.
I can’t rule out the possibility that one day they will try to sneak through the barrier and spy on it.
It would be nice to have one more safety device.
“I will let you enter the training room from now on. If you want to call me, please knock on the barrier.”
“Yes, Master.”
“············”.
“Hey, is there something wrong with you?”
“Let’s change the name.”
You are the master…
Obviously, when I wrote it in a novel, I was okay with it, but when I heard it in person, I would die of unfamiliarity.
“What should I call it?”
“Just call me by my first name. The age difference isn’t that great anyway.”
“No. It can’t be. How dare a monk….”
“Well then, will you plant the seeds?”
“Mr Heinkel?”
I told you to call me Mr. Schlus.
It feels a bit far-fetched, but it’s not that bad.
After all, Emilia and I have to be close forever, so we can’t get closer.
“Yes. That’s good.”
I entered the training room with Emilia, who bowed and greeted me, behind me.
Today’s work is no different from yesterday’s.
Swordsmanship training using ‘one’s own memory’.
And study magic.
In addition to that, the task of raising the remaining stats to open the shop.
Lots of work to do.
***
“Ugh…”
The door to the training room was closed.
The smile on Emilia’s face, who was watching this, faded away, leaving only an expressionless expression.
Emilia, who was finally alone, gently rubbed her throbbing face while acting the entire time.
Emilia immediately returned to the mansion and headed for Schlust’s bedroom.
‘Well. I can’t.’
The target is the safe you saw earlier.
However, since it was a thick iron plate, double dial, and even protected by a barrier, it seemed impossible to open it unless a professional was called.
Even if a contractor was called, the work could not proceed quietly, so I decided to give up opening the safe.
Emilia came out of the hallway and entered the room she was supposed to stay in.
It was the same size as the bedroom where Schlus was staying.
I thought this would definitely be used as a drawing room and give me a small room…
It was a little surprising.
‘ Schlus Heinkel. A person who is not like a commoner.’
Emilia was a little surprised from the first meeting with Schlus.
I’ve heard it’s obviously commonplace. But from the inside, a certain noble young man is coming out.
It was only after hearing his name that he realized that he was the subject of his watch, Schlus Heinkel.
Courtesy and kindness that seems to be embedded in the body. And his dignified attitude and dignity were enough to make him mistake him for a nobleman.
So, if Schlus Heinkel left a good impression on Emilia…
‘And chew.’
That wasn’t it.
What kind of madman offered 1000 Tyrion as a maid’s salary?
No matter how much room and lodging was provided, it was an exorbitant wage.
Thought I’d make some adjustments. Emilia had no choice but to accept it urgently at the resolute voice that she had to recognize someone else.
Without her, surveillance of the Imperial University would be impossible.
It was impossible to give up the surveillance of the Imperial University, where so many factors gather.
‘Where do you want to be a rich man?’
Rich housekeeper.
That was Emilia’s guess about Schlus Heinkel’s identity.
As for Schlus, the intelligence service has not yet been able to find out for sure.
A person whose information is as tightly controlled as the aristocrats.
Or maybe he’s too ordinary and doesn’t have much information.
Emilia saw the former as more plausible.
It is also the person who offers 1000 Tyrion as the housekeeper’s salary.
How in the world is it possible to have such a lack of economic conception?
In addition, he entered the Imperial University as a senior.
Magic education should be done from an early age, and this again consumes money.
Even the low-ranking nobles couldn’t even dream of it.
So, it means that it is not usually rich people who teach magic in commoner families.
It’s like the son of the owner of a huge upper class who is protected by the emperor.
“Twitch.”
Emilia’s fists were clenched.
Someone grew up on a boat in a city ravaged by war without parents.
How could there be so many wealthy commoners in this empire?
Clearly, Schlust did nothing wrong with this.
But no matter how much he thought about it, it was inevitable that Schlust didn’t look pretty.
‘Peace is also important.’
Kingdoms and empires certainly fought the same war.
However, compared to the kingdom in which the entire country was burned, the empire was always peaceful except for the area around the front line.
Peace comes from national strength, that is, strength.
And that power is…
‘Then destroy the empire, and you have to destroy it again.’
comes out of fear
It must be said that the intelligence service emphasized so much.
Emilia recollected those words and re-imagined them over and over again.
A future that disrupts the empire through sabotage.
A future in which the empire will collapse and peace will finally come to the continent.
Emilia did not doubt the peace that the intelligence service constantly spoke of.
