Lori's Maid Squad
After finishing his meal, Lu Fei noticed that there seemed to be a lot of activity in the manor. Upon inquiring, he learned that Anna had returned.
As Lori's head maid, Anna was extremely popular among the maids, almost all of whom idolized her. Not only was she adept at managing Lori's affairs with great efficiency, but she was also a formidable and beautiful presence herself.
Lu Fei was particularly pleased because Anna's return meant he could begin his meditation and truly enter the realm of the extraordinary.
Sure enough, not long after, someone came to fetch him and led him to the office study.
Upon entering the study, Lu Fei saw not only Lori sitting at her desk but also six stunning young women gathered there. Anna was among them.
As Lu Fei arrived, all eyes turned to him, each expressing different emotions: surprise, wariness, indifference, as well as joy, kindness, and affection.
Lu Fei took a moment to assess them, and with the blue light shimmering in his eyes, various pieces of information appeared before him.
Lori glanced at Lu Fei, understanding immediately what he had just done.
"Lu Fei, these are all my maids. You should now have their information, but let them introduce themselves anyway."
One of the adorable and affectionate-looking girls bounced forward with excitement and approached Lu Fei.
With a sudden flash, she appeared in front of him.
Looking at the innocent-looking girl before him, Lu Fei saw the information in his mind:
[Name: Betty]
[Age: 18]
[Gender: Female]
[Species: Magic Spirit (Void)]
[Status: Maid]
[Rank: High-level Assassin]
[Strength: 33 (Average for normal humans: 5)]
[Mental Power: 41 (Average for normal humans: 5)]
[Agility: 67 (Average for normal humans: 5)]
[Charm: 16 (Average for normal humans: 5, 20 is the limit for ordinary beings)]
[Intelligence: 10 (Average for normal humans: 5, 20 is the limit for ordinary beings)]
[Talent: Void]
With pink hair and eyes, fair and tender skin, and sparkling eyes, Betty approached Lu Fei and said excitedly, "Hello, I'm Betty, an assassin." Suddenly, she became a bit shy and added, "Um... can we be friends?"
Lu Fei couldn't refuse her eager eyes or her charming demeanor.
"Um, sure."
His response made Betty happily hug him. Her body was incredibly soft, like sinking into...
Lu Fei found it somewhat difficult to resist her warm personality. He tried to pull away, but Betty clung to him tightly.
Lori, watching their interaction, looked slightly impatient.
"Alright, Betty, let go of Lu Fei and move on to the next one."
Hearing Lori's words, Betty reluctantly let go of Lu Fei and walked away, but not before sticking out her tongue playfully at him.
A girl dressed in green and yellow leather armor, with golden hair, green eyes, and pointed ears, walked forward. Her tight-fitting clothes accentuated her curvaceous figure.
"Hello, I'm Linna Lysinina, an elf from the Forest of Life. It's a pleasure to meet you. You have a natural scent about you that I really like."
Her words were gentle and melodious, like a gentle breeze.
With her exquisite face and tall figure, Linna immediately caught Lu Fei's attention.
[Name: Linna Lysinina]
[Age: 102]
[Gender: Female]
[Species: Nature Elf]
[Status: Maid (Princess of the Forest)]
[Rank: High-level Ranger]
[Strength: 36 (Average for normal humans: 5)]
[Mental Power: 38 (Average for normal humans: 5)]
[Agility: 71 (Average for normal humans: 5)]
[Charm: 16 (Average for normal humans: 5, 20 is the limit for ordinary beings)]
[Intelligence: 14 (Average for normal humans: 5, 20 is the limit for ordinary beings)]
[Talents: Precision, Penetration, Magic Break]
Despite her age of 102, Lu Fei wasn't surprised, considering that the lifespan of nature elves could extend for thousands of years. Being over 100 years old was still considered young among their kind.
The title "Princess of the Forest" puzzled Lu Fei, but when he glanced at Lori, he saw no unusual expression on her face.
"Mm," Lu Fei smiled and nodded at Linna.
Another girl stepped forward.
[Name: Daisy Thaibesha]
[Age: 23]
[Gender: Female]
[Species: Human]
[Status: Maid]
[Rank: High-level Sorceress]
[Strength: 23 (Average for normal humans: 5)]
[Mental Power: 61 (Average for normal humans: 5)]
[Agility: 19 (Average for normal humans: 5)]
[Charm: 13 (Average for normal humans: 5, 20 is the limit for ordinary beings)]
[Intelligence: 15 (Average for normal humans: 5, 20 is the limit for ordinary beings)]
[Talent: Formation Mastery]
With her fair complexion and brown hair braided into a twist, Daisy exuded a gentle scholarly aura, her face adorned with a faint smile.
"I'm Daisy Thaibesha, a sorceress specializing in formations and such."
"Hello," Lu Fei responded.
"Anna," came a cool voice.
Lu Fei's gaze shifted to her—familiar beauty, flawless features, tall figure, and sleek black hair cascading down her back, accentuating her porcelain-like skin.
[Name: Anna Hylnea]
[Age: 21]
[Gender: Female]
[Species: Human]
[Status: Maid]
[Rank: High-level Knight]
[Strength: 65 (Average for normal humans: 5)]
[Mental Power: 37 (Average for normal humans: 5)]
[Agility: 42 (Average for normal humans: 5)]
[Charm: 16 (Average for normal humans: 5, 20 is the limit for ordinary beings)]
[Intelligence: 13 (Average for normal humans: 5, 20 is the limit for ordinary beings)]
[Talent: Magnetism (formed from the fusion of Gold Thunder attribute, which can be freely used), Weapon Mastery]
Seeing Anna, Lu Fei felt happy inside. After all, she was one of the first people he had met upon arriving at the Count's Manor.
Although they had never spoken a word to each other, he couldn't help but wonder why she sounded so cold. Was it just her personality?
Only Anna herself knew the reason. When they were on the carriage, she was already wary of him, determined to keep her distance from this fairy because he was too dangerous!
And she wasn't good at talking anyway.
Following Anna, another girl spoke up.
"I'm called Fanny Andrea, and our Andrea clan has always been loyal to Veronica. I'm one of the select few who serve Her Highness. I'm curious why you've earned such favor from Her Highness."
Her tone carried a faint sense of self-importance and suspicion towards Lu Fei.
In her eyes, Lu Fei was just a slightly more handsome man.
Why would her revered Highness favor him so much? She even called them all back just for him. Originally, they were scattered around doing missions, but now they were forced to return. This special treatment made her feel somewhat resentful.
Fanny had long, flowing, aquamarine hair, and her face was incredibly beautiful, making her a rare gem among young women.
However, Lu Fei wasn't particularly drawn to her appearance; instead, he was curious about her sudden questioning.
Without answering, he just looked at her with confusion.
Her information appeared before him, and Lu Fei tried to find the reason within.
[Name: Fanny Andrea]
[Age: 22]
[Gender: Female]
[Species: Human]
[Status: Maid]
[Rank: High-level Mage]
[Strength: 20 (Average for normal humans: 5)]
[Mental Power: 68 (Average for normal humans: 5)]
[Agility: 23 (Average for normal humans: 5)]
[Charm: 15 (Average for normal humans: 5, 20 is the limit for ordinary beings)]
[Intelligence: 12 (Average for normal humans: 5, 20 is the limit for ordinary beings)]
[Talent: Four Spirit Protection (possessing Water, Fire, Wind, and Earth elemental spirits), Rapid Spellcasting]
Her talent seemed quite powerful, but not as impressive as his.
Looking back at her, Lu Fei just smiled and nodded without saying anything.
Facing such sarcasm, it was best to ignore it.
His gaze then fell on the last person.
Seeing Lori ignoring her made Fanny even angrier, but Lori was still present, so she couldn't do anything out of line. She could only stomp her foot in frustration.
[Name: Karo Olivier]
[Age: 24]
[Gender: Female]
[Species: Dragon Descendant (Dragon Bloodline)]
[Status: Maid]
[Rank: High-level Warrior]
[Strength: 74 (Average for normal humans: 5)]
[Mental Power: 31 (Average for normal humans: 5)]
[Agility: 43 (Average for normal humans: 5)]
[Charm: 16 (Average for normal humans: 5, 20 is the limit for ordinary beings)]
[Intelligence: 11 (Average for normal humans: 5, 20 is the limit for ordinary beings)]
[Talents: Erosion (attacks come with a destructive effect of dark attribute), Tenacity (high in recovery, defense resistance)]
With short dark purple hair, sharp eyebrows and eyes, Karo exuded a bold and somewhat assertive aura.
However, it couldn't be denied that she possessed a beautiful face and a voluptuous and tall figure.
She wore a short bustier made of light armor on her upper body and a short alloy skirt on her lower body.
Large patches of snow-white skin were exposed to the air, giving her a cool but slightly hot feeling.
Especially her long, slender legs always seemed to firmly capture people's attention.
Her attributes were the highest among everyone present except Lori.
As Lu Fei looked at her, she was also looking at him.
Karo didn't have much emotional reaction towards Lu Fei, except for a slight surprise at how weak he seemed.
As a descendant of dragons, even though she was only a half-blood with dragon bloodline, the desire for strength and respect for power was firmly rooted in her mind.
The male elf in front of her was just too weak.
Weak to the point where she could probably suck him dry with just one deep breath.
However, these were not things she needed to care about. Looking at Lu Fei, she nodded slightly and said, "Karo Olivier, high-level warrior."
After everyone introduced themselves, Lu Fei also briefly introduced himself. In his heart, he sighed in admiration. These young women in front of him were not only powerful but also exceptionally talented.
After learning about common knowledge of the Warren Continent, he understood that not everyone could awaken elemental powers, let alone obtain talents.
Talent holders were extremely rare, and according to the people of the Warren Continent, they were the ones watched over by the gods.
Each of these girls in front of him, if out in the world, would be top-tier geniuses, overshadowing their peers, treasures coveted by major kingdoms and empires.
But now they were all gathered here, willingly becoming servants to others.
Was this the strength of the Veronica family? Or was it the charm of Lori Veronica?
His gaze involuntarily turned to Lori, who was sitting at the desk, and his eyes were filled with a hint of longing.
Then Lori said, "This time, Anna called you all here regarding the protection of Lu Fei. The location is at the Greenwood Forest's Greenwater Waterfall. Betty and Linna are responsible for the surveillance, Daisy is in charge of setting up formations, Karo guards at the forefront, Fanny provides support in the middle and rear, and Anna guards from behind. The main purpose this time is to conceal Lu Fei's practice activities and minimize the detection of our actions..."
"Anna, are all the items I need fully prepared?"
Anna nodded, "Everything is ready."
Lori nodded, then looked at Lu Fei, her crimson pupils carrying some expectations.
"Lu Fei, are you ready?"
With orderly instructions, spoken as if facing a major battle, each word coming from Lori's mouth seemed to carry great weight.
And all of this was for himself, a warm flow of emotion inexplicably welled up from his heart, flowing through his limbs.
Was he really being moved by Lori?
"I'm ready, Lori."
Lu Fei's gaze was fixed on Lori as if she were the most dazzling color.
But after spending time together and acquiring various knowledge, he understood that Lori's kindness towards him was more because of his outstanding talent, which could be a great help.
Thinking of this, the brilliance in his eyes dimmed slightly.
Then he shook his head, suppressing those fleeting thoughts.
"Everyone is born with their own value, and what they pursue is to enhance their own value. So... no matter what one values, isn't it all about oneself!"
Lu Fei silently convinced himself.
