41 Aya’s Contract

Trevon quickly cut Raina. "I am the one who first found her."

"Let me check the contract first!" Trevon read the contract carefully. Since he had been tricked by Master Rabbink, he was very careful when talking about a contract.

If he knew about the demon beast contract he would check Nana's contract carefully first. In the end, he was also tricked to give her the expensive spirit foods every time.

Trevon read the family maid contract. It was a common employment contract.

He needed to make some changes in the contract before he finally put her contract on the table.

"Aya, you can check the contract." Trevon said. He felt proud of the modification. Raina wouldn't be able to take an advantage.

"And I will double all his offers, Aya." Raina put her ante. She had heard the young girl name from Trevon.

Aya was very afraid. She didn't know what to do. "I... I..."

"You can read the contract." Trevon said. "If you agree with my contract sign here." Trevon pointed to the last part of the contract.

Aya came and looked into Trevon's contract. She turned the page over and over. Finally, she decided to sign the contract.

"Hahaha. See? She chooses me." Trevon felt proud.

Raina was displeased. She had tried to save the poor girl. She took the contract and read.

[Does Trevon give a good offer that couldn't be rejected?] She wondered.

"Wait!" She exclaimed. "Can you read?" She asked Aya.

Aya shook her head. She didn't receive an education. She grew in the gang since she was a kid. There was no time to go to the academy.

The guards commented on the explanation.

"Young Master Trevon surely must have tricked the girl."

"Yes, she can't read."

"Luckily, we have young lady Raina." They whispered.

"She is a savior to common employees like us."

"Yes. The girl is lucky that young lady Raina is here." Another guard gossiped.

Raina frowned. "I can't believe what you write in here."

"Basic salary of 0 and no other bonuses?" She read the first benefit.

"Yes, even if Elder Sister Raina doubles it, you also offered 0." Trevon explained. That was Trevon idea to counter double offer from Raina.

"Why do you write work for only 30 days per month?" Raina asked again. [This is slavery. There is no holiday. It is not a benefit.] She thought.

"Yes, it is a benefit for working for me. It is better than Elder Sister's benefit which forced her to work 60 days per month. I believe she wouldn't be able to sleep working for you, Sis."

"You!" Raina stressed. "There are no 60 days in a month."

The guards heard Raina words.

"This is really slavery."

"Yeah, no payment and no holiday?" Another guard whispered.

"Young Master Trevon really bullies the girl. She already signed it."

Trevon didn't care about those whisperers. [Does Tiger consider what a rabbink thought?]

"Yes! If it is this Rabbink." Master Rabbink exclaimed.

"Here! I also wrote another benefit. I promised to train her to Peak Rank 2 warrior." Trevon moved next to Raina and pointed to the next benefit. It was important to declare it.

"That means Elder Sister promised to train her to Peak Rank 4 warrior if Elder Sister Raina doubles it." Trevon declared Raina's double offer. "I doubt anyone in our family could train someone to Peak Rank 4."

"You also couldn't promise to train her to Peak Rank 2." Raina argued. [This cousin is very annoying.] She thought.

"I can." Trevon argued. "Here! I promised to support Aya's cultivation until she reaches Peak Rank 2." He declared.

"You!" Raina was confused. She knew this cousin of hers rarely made a promise. "But you could not bully her!" She exclaimed. "What is with these 30 working days per month and 0 salaries and bonuses?"

"I have included the promise to support her cultivation until she reaches Peak Rank 2. Look at those single guards who wouldn't want think kind of deal?"

Every guard looked into each other. They couldn't deny that the offer was tempting. Especially the full support, it was already higher than their salary. Most of the unmarried guards might even want to take the deal if they were offered. The married was a bit interested but they needed money to feed their families.

The rumor of slavery quickly disappeared. However, one of them started to whisper.

"What happens if she stuck on Top Rank 2?" He asked his friend. It was a bit loud.

Trevon heard the sentences.

"I will keep supporting her until she reaches Peak Rank 2. There is no other clause if in the contract." Trevon proudly declared. [This should make Aya happy, right?]

Aya was confused. She didn't know about cultivation. [What is Peak Rank 2?] She wondered. As a commoner at the bottom of society, she only knew there were common people and the mighty cultivators.

Trevon would be sad if he knew she didn't understand his expensive offer.

Raina looked into Aya. [The only problem is whether she could become a cultivator. This is not a small matter. Perhaps, if she could reach primary Rank 2, Trevon could ask for extra cultivation resources from the family. Any Rank 2 is important to the family.] There were very few maids in the family with cultivation. All powerful maids were bodyguards disguised as maids.

"Call the Maid Union Leader!" She ordered her personal maid. Raina understood she would lose to Trevon this way. This cousin of hers was hard to argue. He could evade his way from trouble using his tricks. [I couldn't just punch him in front of these guards, right?] She thought.

"Yes, Young Lady." Raina's maid went from the hall.

"Let's us wait for the maid union leader!" Raina said to Trevon.

"Is there a maid union?" Trevon was a bit afraid with these so-called union. He had some problem with the young lady union in Bluestar.

"Yes. Do you think you could overwork your maid?" Raina answered.

Nana jumped to Trevon shoulder. The mouse had finished her breakfast. She sent more signals requesting for more foods.

"Are you hungry?" Trevon took a bit more spirit beast foods. He didn't want her to grow too fast. Trevon needed to build a connection before she became a Demon.

"Is this your mouse?" Raina asked. She had seen her last night before she went into the party. "She won't be able to beat my beast."

"Just wait in 10 years, Nana will defeat your Baibai."

"She is Vonvon now." Raina answered back.

"What?" Trevon felt he heard something wrong.

"My swan's name is changed into Vonvon." Raina smiled. She had changed the name after Trevon made his mouse Nana.

[This girl is taking her revenge.] Trevon thought. "The swan is female. Why did Elder Sister name her Vonvon?" Trevon believed his name was masculine.

"It is up to me. She likes it. Allow me to pet your mouse!" Raina asked Trevon. The fat mouse looked cute for very few girls. Raina was one of the rare few. The others were totally afraid of a mouse.

"No way!" Trevon said.

However, Nana went to Raina side. She rubbed her body to Raina's arm. The mouse showed a pitying look at the food in front of Nana. As a baby demon beast, Nana could understand a few human words.

"What a smart mouse. Look! You didn't even feed her enough." Raina gave some slices of bread to Nana.

Nana quickly ran into the bread and nodded.

"You! Did you betray me for food?" Trevon scolded Nana. "I don't give you common foods because you want spirit foods only. Do you want to change the beast contract?"

The mouse quickly returned to Trevon side. She rubbed her body to Trevon and sent some fawned signals.

"Humph..." Trevon felt 70 points loyalty number was too low.

"Don't fight with a baby demon beast!" Raina said. "Let's us continued our breakfast." She continued her breakfast.

"Good!" Trevon also continued his breakfast. Aya was standing next to Trevon. She didn't know what she should do.

The guards tried to slow their breakfasts. They wanted to see the continuation of this saga.

30 minutes later an old woman came. She wore the standard maid robe.

"Good morning, Young Master! Good morning, Young Lady!" She offered her greeting. She wasn't a McArthur family maid. Because of that, she didn't know the young master's and the young lady's names.

"Are you the maid union leader?" Raina asked.

"Yes, Young Lady. I am Redwood City Maid Union leader." The woman answered.

"Could you check this contract? My cousin, Trevon McArthur wanted to hire this young lady."

The old woman was surprised when she heard the name. Trevon McArthur name had already been used in the past 5 years for scaring naughty little girls. She had heard some rumors about this famous young master.

"I believe this contract is unfair." Raina declared her position. If she didn't back her, the old woman would never challenge Trevon's contract. He was a McArthur family young master who could call the rain and thunder for a commoner.

The old woman understood Raina's signal. While she didn't like to be the middlewoman in a fight between 2 cultivation family members, she needed to protect her fellow maid as the union leader. With the backup, she would check the contract carefully.

However, when she read the contract, she showed a very shocked expression. [This is slavery.] She thought.

The old maid continued to read the points on the contracts. Most of them were common in a contract, yet there were some heavy requirements.

"Young Master, did you purchase Aya?" She didn't start with judgment. There was a possibility that her family sold her to pay with her work or she was Trevon's slave. It would be a different matter.

"No." Trevon answered. While he paid the gang leader, that was to prevent the future problem.

"Could you tell me the story of her recruitment?" The old woman asked.

"You tell her yourself." Trevon ordered Aya. He preferred to delegate when it was possible.

"You saw her talent and decided to kidnap her. Gwahahaha." Master Rabbink commented. It knew the real reason Trevon spared her.

[Who kidnapped her?] Trevon didn't consider his action as kidnapping. [I hired a maid to complete the quest.]

"Um..." Aya hesitated. She was embarrassed.

"No need to worry, you could freely speak." Raina said.

"Young Master Trevon must have pressured her." The guard whispered.

"Yes, no need to worry dear child. I am here to give you a fair contract." The old woman showed an amiable smile.

"I..." Aya lowered her head. "I stole Young Master Trevon's money pouch. But... but..." She cried. Aya couldn't tell about Young Master Trevon tricked her about the token. It was even more for the story that she removed her robe in front of him. She was afraid and embarrassed.

"..." Nobody spoke.

"She stole young master's pouch."

"That is a huge crime."

"An elder killed an old man because he stole the merchandise on the caravan that we had to protect."

"Yes. Death is normal if you messed with great family business. This is why I join to become one of them."

"Why couldn't she speak the rest of the story?" Another guard asked.

"Do you forget who she stole the thing from? That is the infamous Young Master Trevon."

"Eh?"

"Imagine what would happen when a young lady stole something from him."

"You mean that he forced her to do that?"

"Yes. Big chance. Why couldn't she continue to speak?"

"Poor girl!"

They whispered very softly that Trevon couldn't hear. Yet, Master Rabbink could hear them.

[This is difficult.] The old woman thought. [If she stole from a cultivator, even Redwood City wouldn't care about her.] She looked into Raina.

Raina didn't know. She wondered why the old woman looked into her. Her personal maid quickly explained.

"Then, I, Raina McArthur represents my family pardons your past actions." Raina said. "Nobody from McArthur family would demand compensation for your past actions."

"Who demanded compensation?" Trevon felt wronged. "Look! I no longer cared about the thievery since the first time I saw her." This was the truth.

"You just admitted you had planned to do perverted things to her since the first time you saw her!" Raina quickly refuted. "This couldn't do! Aya comes here." Raina stood from her chair.

Aya was afraid. She looked into Trevon and Raina.

"Come here! It is an order." Raina said.

Aya was confused, however, Raina quickly pulled her. "She will be my personal maid from now."

"Who would allow you?" Trevon couldn't lose her. He even had asked a mission for her cultivation technique from Master Rabbink.

"Aya, come here! I have never had any perverted plan for you. You have heard what I want in the restaurant back then, right?"

Aya was confused. She looked at these two mighty people in her eyes.

"I promised never to force Aya to do perverted things." Trevon said. [Being a painting model isn't a perverted thing, right?] He asked himself.

Raina was once again surprised. [Trevon just made 2 promises for a maid?]

Raina looked at Aya more carefully. [The girl is cute, but she definitely isn't Trevon's type. I know Trevon likes the kind, classy, elegant, humble, and graceful young ladies. Especially if they have sexy bodies and beautiful faces. Does he plan for her in the future? But he had already promised.]

"Then, is it fine for young master if we add a point that she is allowed to reject any sexual request?" The old woman carefully asked.

Normally a maid or a servant in cultivator family couldn't reject a direct descendant. She/he even should be grateful, because they could join the family as a concubine.

"Yes! Let's us put that point. You can reject even other young masters in the family." Trevon said. "Wait! You have to reject everyone." He was afraid after investing a lot in Aya, she went to his other cousins. There were some cousins with a handsome face and talented cultivation.

[No!!!] Trevon thought to himself. [I should not close the door for a Rank 4 warrior as a concubine, right? Wait! I have made a promise.]

"Sis, could I take my promise back?" Trevon started to regret his promise. He was too emotional.

"No! Everybody had heard about it. Do you really want to take your promise back?"

"Hey, you should check your next mission!" Master Rabbink reminded Trevon.

Trevon hadn't checked the new mission since he hired Aya.

[Lv 2 Mission: Find a flashy martial art to practice.]

[Lv 0 Mission: Force a merchant to give you a pear.]

[Lv 2 Mission: Seduce your female maid.]

[What is this new mission?] Trevon was surprised. He didn't believe he read the absurd mission. He had never felt anything with Aya. She was too young for his taste.

[Lv 2 Mission: Seduce your female maid.]

[Mission Reward: 1.000 Destiny Energy and a concubine to join your harem.]

[Mission Description: A young master lives a lavish life. He takes every woman they want. The first should be the closest non-relative woman to him, his personal maid. The famous love scenario between a young master and his pure maid. That is the real web novel first love story.]

Trevon couldn't comment. He sharply gazed into the Rabbink. He had really never thought about that with Aya.

"Hey! That is my main body using the common pattern to move the love story."

[Remove.] Trevon made his decision. He was one who always kept his promise.

[Do you want to remove Lv 2 Mission: Seduce your female maid for 1.000 core energy?]

[Yes.]

[Mission Removed.]

Trevon looked into Raina. "I will keep my promises."

"However, she will be contracted directly with me." Trevon said. "So, the family, including any elder, young master, young lady, or employees couldn't order her. She will be directly under my protection."

Trevon took the contract from the old woman. He changed some points to make it a personal contract.

Raina looked into the new changes that Trevon made. It was removing all McArthur and turned it into Trevon McArthur.

"Listen Aya! If anyone forced you to do anything you didn't want including me. They considered not giving me face. You can disobey and even retaliate under my name." Trevon ordered Aya.

Aya was so surprised by Trevon words. [Why does young master so protective? Is he like me? It can't be.]

All the guards didn't understand why their young master cared this maid so much. [She isn't his sister, right?] They thought.

Trevon continued to modify the contract. He finally took the contract and read.

"You will be contracted for a lifetime." Trevon added.

Raina and the old woman frowned. [That is slavery.]

However, they couldn't complain, some maids had a lifetime contract. It was to guarantee the loyalty to the family. This also meant Trevon would take care of her during her retirement and her family.

"I will never do anything perverted to you." Trevon read another point. He had already promised it to Raina. Raina and the old woman looked better.

"I will promise to cultivate you until you reach Peak Rank 2, including in it the accommodation and foods." Trevon continued to read the contract. "After that, I will still support you until you reach your maximum potential."

This was the point that made other guards envied Aya. That would equal they could focus on their cultivation. As a direct descendant young master, Trevon's allowance was higher than their salary.

"In return, you will only follow my order. Not my father, mother, elders, or anyone else." Trevon read another point. "You will have all the rights for yourselves. I will never sell the contract to other people. You have the right to reject any orders that may be dangerous to your life."

Trevon gave the contract to the old woman since everything else was the same.

The old woman read the contract once again. She continued to read the contract.

5 minutes later, she nodded to Raina. It was a good contract. There were some problems. On the other hand, the benefits promised was something that a common maid would never have. [This is fair.] She thought.

[Ah!] Trevon thought something.

"Wait! I want to add another clause. She could do perverted things to me if she wants." Trevon said.

"You!" Raina was frustrated. [This cousin of mine really had some plans.]

"This is different. If Aya charmed by me, should I reject her?" Trevon asked.

"This girl will never fall into your trap! I will match your contract." Raina said. She had more allowances than Trevon.

"My contract is better than you." Trevon said. "If she contracted to the family, the family may marry her to someone she didn't want."

The other maids in the dining hall thought about that. [It is true.]

The family could marry them into one of the important members of the family. However, all wouldn't reject the chance. Those important members were cultivators, it was like turning from a carp into a dragon. Some even dressed and used makeup to charm some young masters or elders in the family, while the servant built their muscles after work hours.

"I will also give her a contract directly with me." Raina didn't want to lose.

"What is your choice Aya?" Trevon asked.

Aya felt pressured. "I... I have my gratitude to Young Master Trevon." She quickly bowed to Raina. "I am sorry, Young Lady."

"Hahaha..." Trevon felt happy. He finally won from Raina. A very big grin decorated his face.

"Hmph..." Raina felt frustrated. She only wanted to help. [At last, he made some promise not to touch the girl because of me.]

Trevon really felt he needed to reward Aya more. [What should I give her?]

"Jerry, quickly type this draft into a real contract." He ordered Jerry.

"Young Master, if she wasn't contracted to the family, she couldn't stay in the maid quarter." Jerry reminded Trevon.

"I will just rent a house near here." Trevon said.

"Yes, Young Master." Jerry answered.

"Do you have the money?" Raina asked. "You even promised her to reach Peak Rank 2."

"I will have. I believe Redwood Family should start to prepare to send me some money. I could ask some in the form of cultivation materials." He said.

Raina agreed that it was possible. Suddenly she realized something. She wanted to talk with Trevon about the compensations but Aya matter made her lose focus.

Raina looked into the watching guards. "This is for today! I hope everybody will be the witness of my cousin's promises. I don't want to hear any rumors to the outsider." She said.

"Yes, Young Lady." Those guards returned to their breakfast. Some quickly went to do their duty.

"Then I hope Young Master and Young Lady give this old maid the permission to excuse myself." The old woman understood that she should leave the location.

"Thank you for your help, Aunty." Raina bowed.

"..." Trevon only nodded. The old woman was in Raina's camp.

The old woman was guided by Raina's maid to leave the dining hall.

"I want to talk something with you, Trevon." Raina said.

"Just tell me!" Trevon was a bit unhappy. He got into more limitations with Aya because of Raina.

"Well, Olivia asked me yesterday after you returned. Whether your price could be negotiated?"

"Olivia?" Trevon showed his perverted eyes. He forgot his unhappiness.

"If she agrees to be my model. I could reduce it by 50%." Trevon smiled in his heart. [HweHweHwe.]

"Do not joke! Is your price serious?" Raina asked. She couldn't believe the sword worth 1 million spirit stones.

"Yes, I have. Mr. Fermex had appraised it. He put that price if I auction the sword in the capital. You may not know, but our elders had also seen the sword before. They also wanted to purchase it from me. Elder Sister could ask uncle Charles about the sword value. Elder Mante and Elder Milla even had personally checked the sword."

"Then, be serious, how much do you want?" Raina asked. She would ask her father later.

"At minimum since it was an accident, I could give 30% discount at 700.000 spirit stones." Trevon said.

"Fine. I will tell Olivia about your demand."

"Please also tell her to be my model! I am also serious about that." Trevon quickly said while smiling. He would not consider that a loss if he could get close to Olivia.

Raina only frowned. "Look at his perverted smile! Now you know why people afraid of him, right?" Raina told Aya.

"This is not an order, but I invite you to join the family class for female. You will be taught about the dangerous male seduction's trick."

Aya looked into Trevon.

[She should learn some defense against male seduction. I couldn't have my Rank 4 warrior, defeated because of enemy seduction, right? This would make it harder for other young masters to woo my Rank 4 warrior.] He thought about it.

"You should join it." Trevon made the decision.

"Good, then it is settled." Raina took Aya quickly before Trevon changed his mind. Other than the promise, she couldn't trust this cousin of hers. "I will take her now."

"Fine. Do not forget to tell my message to Lady Olivia, Elder Sis!" Trevon smiled. He could imagine his drawing would improve if he had a more beautiful model.

"No way!!!" Raina shouted from outside the Dining Hall.
