Chapter 2:
Helping My Maid<><><>
For a normal person like me received a big blow like this is not a thing that i even have in mind.
I was casually making my way to my destination, when a sudden lightening struck me! It was no rain, no cloud, no one injured... but me!! Then.. Bam! I got transmigrated into a fantasy world! Where mystical creature, magic and mysterious power exist.
When you think that i was actually send there for a reason and i was actually a protagonist of a isekai[1] story, sorry to break it to you but... I'm dead.
But for some reason, fate decided to play with me and send me back to that crappy fantasy world. I appreciate your efforts to make me redeem what i regret, but..... I APPRECIATE MORE IF YOU LET ME DIE IN PEACE THEN TO SUFFER AGAIN!!
I'm not joking when i say that everyone didn't have good impression on me. To be exact, they'll pretty much hate me or to be specific, the original Merrie. Not care if it's the original or me, it's not an excuse to hate a child just because of other person wrong-doing! I reminded myself of what happened yesterday, such a feeling of anger and disappointed!
"M'Lady? M'Lady"
"Yeah?" I replied with a dazed expression.
"Do you want me to curle or straight your hair, MiLady?"
"Straight," i said with no emotion.
"Yes, MiLady."
This is my maid, Lisya, she is the character that died first in the novel. Unfortunately for her, when i discovered that this world is a world of a novel that i once read, it was already to late... But now, it's not to late! I smile merrily.
"Lisya?"
"Y-Yes,"
Lisya's hesitate, since noble didn't call their servant from their name because of culture or something.
"How's your brother?"
In the original, Lisya death was cause by a huge debt. The money was used in order to buy medicine for her younger brother, the medicine was rare and expansive, eventually she have no choice but to carry a huge debt.Unfortunately in the end, the medicine was a scam and the brother end up dying. Later, not even have enough chance to be in grief, debt collector come and kill Lisya, allowing her to accompany her brother. Her death that was cause by her debt for buying her brothers medicine, which he end up dying instead of healing, she died with regret.
But, when I read it before, i notice that ....she actually didn't even try to fight back or even run. The novel actually spare a detailed that Lisya, another nameless character in the novel, was actually strong as a royal knight.... She practically give up on living after knowing that she made a mistake, bring to her only family to their death.
"He-he ....I-Its." Her brows knitted, she make an alarm face.
"Merrie is not trying to do something bad." I cant blame her, being just a child, the rumour about her is enough for someone to shit their pants when actually meet her, especially meeting Merrie disfigured face.
Not that I'm a saint or something, it just; Lisya is the only one who be able to look at me in the eye while other servent just tremble in fear or shows no effort to hide their disgusted expressions. Let's just say it's a repayment to that.
She is that kind of person who only shows warm to the people they trust and love, while to others, she only display a cold and unapproachable facade. Reflected on the mirror, she show a hostile look, not because of everything about me or about my unsight face, but because I question about the lives of her beloved one.
