Another World’s Highest Guild Leader ~I’m the weakest in the guild, but I can’t quit the guild because of the heavy love of all the guild members~ - Chap 71.5: A fallen maid who can't even talk in peace.

As a maid, my role was to serve and care for my master. My family has served the royal and noble households for generations. From birth, I was rigorously trained to be an exceptional maid, adept at managing emotions and expressions.

Currently, I serve a noble named Bakatte, a distant relative of the royal family. I’m not particularly interested in him, though I’ve been working here for about two years and have become his favorite, they say.

…Am I happy about this? A resounding NO. Anyone would be appalled by what I’ve seen.

It’s 10 PM. As the ladies of the house sleep, I’m summoned to Bakatte’s room. The moment I enter, the sound of water and an intense odor hit me. Before me is a debauched scene.

“Oh, this feels good,” says Bakatte, seated regally, forcing maids to perform lewd acts. His friend, Hagetee, shares his taste for sexual harassment.

Our eyes meet; he beckons me over.

“What do you need?”

“Need? Oh, you’re new to this. Let me explain. First, come here.”

I approach him, maintaining a one-body distance, already knowing what these late-night sessions entail.

“Move aside. Now, Fel, kneel.”

A maid is pushed aside, and I’m directed to take her place. Reluctantly, I comply.

“You’re amazing, Fel. Your perfect figure, your ever-watchful smile, your impeccable work… it’s a waste to have you just as a maid.”

I’ve grown tired of such comments but maintain my smiling facade.

Then, he presents his filth before me.

“What is it?”

“Suck.”

I anticipated this, but his directness is still shocking. Tension fills the room, filled with sounds of indulgence.

The other maids watch, wondering how I, one of the top maids, will react. Once you partake, you’re trapped. The maids here started resisting, but eventually gave in to the allure of pleasure and power.

I have no intention of joining their ranks. So…

“Master.”

I smile brightly at him, he smiles back.

I reach out.

And then…

“What the—Fel!?”

I sever the offending part with a knife hidden in my skirt. It falls silently.

“Aaaaahhh!!”

The master writhes in pain, clutching his groin. The room falls silent.

He’s just a human with money. In terms of combat, I have the upper hand.

“Ah… what are you doing! Silence him! Now!”

But no one in this debauched gathering dares to act against me, recognizing my strength.

“Fel! Do you realize what you’ve done!?”

Hagetee is the only one to react.

“I thought it best to cut it off since you wouldn’t understand if I just told you. Seek immediate healing magic.”

“Ah… ah…”

“Bakatte, are you okay?”

He drinks a potion, alleviating some pain and regaining his speech.

“You dare defy us! You’re just a maid! We employ you; defy us, and you know the consequences!”

“Yes, I’m aware.”

Of the sexual harassment, the injustices, the evils they commit.

“Are you alright, Bakatte?”

“Yes, I’m better now.”

The potion has taken effect, easing his pain slightly.

“Has there been any progress in resolving that matter?”

“Now you’re asking about that!? First, you should attend to your own…”

“Just answer.”

“Ye-yes! It’s not resolved yet… In fact, we’re reaching our limit of cover-ups. We’ve run out of people to blame…”

“Then it’s perfect timing. We’ve got someone to blame.”

“Me?”

Bakatte points at me.

“Blame it on her.”

“Is this your way of getting revenge? Is that enough for you?”

“Yes… it’s better than just harming her. Let her be shamed publicly and her family disgraced. It’s the perfect revenge… Disappointing that you turned out to be a maid who can’t even perform fellatio.”

“I choose not to learn unnecessary skills.”

“Fel! What’s with that tone?”

“Calm down, Hagetee. I’m broad-minded. If she’s telling the truth, a skilled healer can regenerate what I’ve lost… Fel, leave my presence and this house immediately.”

The situation was surprisingly resolved swiftly. That day, I left the mansion, traveled for two days, and returned home. The rumor had spread quickly.

As I reached the town, I was met with disdainful stares. At home, my mother slapped me, and my parents disowned me.

To them, I was never a daughter, just a tool for the family’s prestige.

Abandoned by family and townspeople, I was innocent, yet no one believed me. But it was okay; I was competent.

The rumor spread far. Everywhere I went, I was known as the main perpetrator of that incident.

Finally, I found solitude in a forest, beyond the sea and towns. My maid uniform was torn and dirty, my hair disheveled. I was at my lowest.

“What should I do now?”

I couldn’t work as a maid anymore. Anyone with the means to hire me would have been warned about me.

But then, a young man’s voice called out, “A maid?”

“Why is a maid in the forest?”

He circled me curiously, then said, “It’s dangerous here. Come to my place.”

“Excuse me?”

His offer was too casual, too light.

A beautiful blonde woman followed him, sighing, “You just left the Red Rose and now you’re recruiting like this? We won’t get far with such random guild members.”

“But she’s in trouble. Let’s take her in and have her join the guild.”

“Ugh, you’re impossible. But okay, let’s verify her story first.”

“Then I accept your offer.”

I seized the opportunity. At that moment, I was that desperate.

“I am Fel Souls. Pleased to meet you.”

“Why did you agree with her first? I was the one who suggested it.”

His expression was hidden by a mask, but I had a response ready.

“It seems our first meeting already indicates bad compatibility.”

“Really? So you dislike me already?”

“I apologize for my directness.”

I smiled.

In the end, it took less than a month for Fel to become utterly devoted to Crow.
