Morning.
The assistants accompanying the Royal Auditor were getting ready for the day.
One of them idly wandered toward the window of their room on the first floor of Ravenscrest Castle. From there, the castle gardens stretched out before him in the soft morning light.
As he absentmindedly gazed outside, his eyes suddenly froze.
The head maid was escorting Elara across the garden toward her room.
"Oh my God..." he muttered under his breath.
Hearing his astonished voice, another assistant walked over to the window.
"What is it?"
The moment he looked outside, he froze as well.
"Hey! Come over here! You have to see this!"
One after another, the remaining assistants gathered around the window.
None of them could take their eyes off Elara.
Elara wore a provocative maid uniform with a knee-length skirt and a neckline which slightly revealed her ample bosom. The outfit accentuated her graceful curves without appearing gaudy.
As she walked, her fair skin seemed to glow beneath the morning sun, her hips swayed naturally as she walked with her long legs enticing every pair of eyes watching from above making several of the men unconsciously swallow.
When Elara sensed their lust filled gazes, she gently raised her head and looked toward the windows.
The instant they saw her face, the room fell silent.
Her delicate features, calm expression, and striking eyes stole everyone's breath.
"Oh my God... How can there be such a beautiful maid in a backwater place like this?" one assistant whispered.
"She's unbelievably gorgeous," another said.
"If I could spend just one night sleeping in her arms, I'd die without regrets," a third added.
Noticing that Elara had stopped looking ahead, the head maid followed her gaze and looked toward the windows.
Her expression stiffened.
The assistants were practically hanging out of the windows, staring at Elara with unconcealed hunger.
She felt anxious seeing the men drooling like a pack of hungry wolves, who saw some delicious fresh meat.
A chill ran down her spine.
'This is bad...' she thought.
Turning to Elara, she spoke in a gentle but hurried voice.
"Miss, I'll escort you to your room. I'll have someone bring your meals there."
She hesitated before continuing. "If possible... could you avoid leaving your room today?"
"Please don't take offense. There are... some troublesome guests staying at the castle. If you happen to encounter them, it may be a bit...problematic."
"I understand. Please don't worry," Elara replied expressionlessly.
Relieved by her calm response, the head maid let out a quiet sigh.
Even so, anxiety still lingered in her heart.
'It's fortunate this young lady will be leaving tomorrow. Otherwise... I don't even want to imagine what might happen.'
She glanced at Elara again.
'Still... who wears such a shameful uniform? It draws far too much attention. Isn't she embarrassed? Is this the uniform maids in other territories wear?'
