[211] Raynere's Recklessness!

Looking at the nun who was staring at him in amazement, August also recognized her.

Wearing a nun's attire, with golden hair and a natural disposition, wasn't she the nun with the Twilight Healing, Asia Argento?

"Hey, how long do you plan to keep staring?"

"Ah~, I'm really sorry. I didn't mean to. I just haven't seen a guy like you before, so I got stunned. I'm really sorry~."

Watching Asia, who kept bowing and apologizing, August was suddenly captivated.

"Is that so?"

"Hmn."

As Asia nodded her head while muttering, she lowered her head, naturally and shy. 

Seeing this, August's mischievous nature was aroused. Just like teasing Bell, the more he did this, the more he could stimulate his desire to tease her.

"You bumped into me just now. To compensate for my loss, you owe me ten million."

"Ten million?"

"And it has to be in US dollars."

"US dollars? I don't have that much money."

In that instant, Asia's tears were about to come out. She had never seen so much money in her life.

Not to mention ten million, she didn't even have a thousand. When she was in the church, she only needed to focus on her tasks, pray every day, and had no contact with money or worldly matters.

Now, expelled from the church, traveling from Northern Europe to Japan, she finally understood the importance of money.

"Hehe, no money? Then, you can compensate with your soul. From now on, you're my maid, work at my house, and you can leave when you've paid off the debt."

"But I still have to go to the church."

"Hmm? You want to default on the debt?"

"I-I..."

She stuttered for a while, but Asia couldn't come up with any reasonable response.

If she were a normal person, she would have cursed loudly. August's shamelessness was off the charts, clearly trying to deceive and extort her shamelessly.

But Asia didn't know anything. Growing up in the church, she was oblivious to the ways of the world. Coupled with her overly kind personality, in her eyes, everyone was kind. She never thought that August was trying to deceive or extort her.

"What's your name?"

"I'm Asia Argento, from Northern Europe."

"Good. From today onwards, you're my maid, and you'll receive a hundred US dollars per day."

"A hundred dollars a day? At this rate, I can pay off the debt in one hundred thousand days."

"Can you live for a hundred days?"

"Uh~"

This immediately stimulated Asia again. She was just an ordinary person, how could she possibly live for a hundred thousand days?

If that's the case, she would be a maid for her entire life.

However, Asia didn't feel dissatisfied. In fact, she felt happy because, from the moment she was expelled from the church, she had no home.

Abandoned as a baby, she became an orphan and was raised by the church to become a nun. From childhood to adulthood, she had never been in contact with the outside world.

She was discovered healing a severely injured devil by chance and was considered a heretic and witch. Expelled by the church, she accepted an invitation from a group of exorcists led by fallen angels, coming to Kuoh.

In her heart, she also understood that she hadn't chosen the right place. But having no place to go, she had to come here.

Now, August made her his maid and brought her back home. For her, it wasn't a bad thing.

"Um, I still don't know your name."

Asia said a bit shyly, stealing glances at August from time to time.

"I'm August. From now on, you can call me My lord."

"My lord? Are you a noble?"

"Of course, I'm a duke."

"Wow, so amazing, you're actually a duke."

Although Asia didn't understand the ways of the world, she understood the significance of being a duke, a high-ranking noble.

Basking in Asia's worshipful gaze, August's male vanity instantly soared.

"Kid, this nun is ours. Are you trying to snatch her away?"

Just as August was feeling pleased, a voice came over, instantly shattering everything.

At this moment, August's expression turned unpleasant.

Glancing to the side, he saw a woman walking towards them, dressed in what looked like SM leather clothing, with a pair of pitch-black wings on her back, she was a fallen angel.

"Lady Raynare."

Asia naturally knew Raynare, after all, it was Raynare who had recruited her.

However, the reason Raynare was willing to take her in was that she coveted Asia's sacred gear. She wanted to seize Asia's sacred gear to gain the favor of Azazel.

However, everything was Raynare's wishful thinking. Azazel had never shown any interest in her from the beginning to the end.

"You shameless nun, no wonder you were expelled. You can't even walk when you see a man."

"It's not like that, Lady Raynare."

"Shut up, wretch."

Seeing the angry Raynare and her insulting words, Asia, feeling wronged, started crying. Tears flowed down her face.

Her pitiful and helpless appearance instantly made August feel distressed.

Such a girl, inherently easy to arouse a man's protective instincts, was now being bullied and crying in such a pitiful manner, which greatly amplified the effect.

"You insolent crow, dare you speak about my maid like that?!"

A chilling murderous intent emanated from August's body.

In an instant, Raynare was shocked. Having such a terrifying murderous intent, how many people did he have to kill?

"Y-You're not an ordinary person. Who are you?"

Feeling this murderous intent and the powerful magical fluctuations emanating from August, Raynare was suddenly shocked.

After all, she was just a lower-level fallen angel, completely insignificant among fallen angels.
