"What do you mean by this?!" Emilia shouted.

Katsuki didn\'t even flinch at her shout, "It is precisely as I have said, Emilia. Since you are now in the service of Mistress, it is expected of you to maintain a certain level of skill to serve."

"I can serve just fine! I know how to brew tea at least!"

"Do you know the exact temperature and sweetness that Mistress likes her tea in? I do not think so. Thus, you will need to participate in the maid training as well."

"This will just cut into my time in planning for my business! You\'re literally wasting my time and money here!"

"Incorrect. That is Mistress\'s money and time."

"I have a time limit of three years to do it! You\'re intentionally sabotaging me to break my contract!"

"That is also incorrect, Mistress gave you ten years. You simply gave yourself three years but Mistress never agreed to it. Thus, you have plenty of time to do it."

"You… You… You\'re setting me up!"

"That is another incorrect statement. I merely have a standard for those who serve Mistress and now that standard also applies to you."

Lisa grinned at them while leaning over to whisper, "I kind of feel bad but seeing Emilia being cornered is pretty refreshing."

Mmhmm… I know what you mean. The both of them were also so busy arguing that they didn\'t even notice Lisa and I had entered the room earlier.

Not gonna lie, I was also enjoying the sight as well.

Watching my Inugami maid and the Nekomata merchant hissing at each other was really cute, like a puppy and kitten wrestling with each other.

Definitely cute~

I want to pat them both at the same time~

Ahem…

Emilia huffed at Katsuki, "If you need me to go through all that pointless \'training\' just to wear that uniform, then I don\'t need it!"

"Hmm? Didn\'t you say that the people around Mistress are exceptional? Are you claiming that you aren\'t one of them?"

"This and that are two different things! And I\'m not serving her, she\'s just my boss who hired me for a job!"

Katsuki narrowed her eyes at her, "That is one other thing you have to change. Mistress is not your \'boss\'. She is now your Mistress and you will address her as such as well."

"Not if I choose not to put on that uniform and you can\'t make me!"

"Hmm… So the supposed great merchant Emilia could not do something as simple as working as a servant of our Mistress? Is that the level of conviction you have after how much magnanimity Mistress has shown you?"

"Ha! And here I thought as Aster\'s personal servant, you would be above such methods like gaslighting others to do what you want! I wonder what would Aster say if she knew about this?"

"You dare say that when you are already taking advantage of Mistress\'s kindness? And yet you don\'t even have the slightest desire to serve her in return for it?"

"I\'m helping her earn money, aren\'t I?"

"You speak as if Mistress needs help to earn money. Please remember that the one that is receiving the most benefits right now is you. If Mistress had not stepped in, you would have been ashes at this moment."

"Ngghh… That\'s a low blow and you know it!"

Katsuki opened her mouth to say something in response but stopped herself before suddenly turning towards me and widening her eyes.

"Mistress! My apologies for showing you such a disgraceful sight!"

Lisa giggled, "Oh you don\'t need to worry about that, Katsuki~ We were enjoying the conversation actually~"

Emilia turned to me, "You agree with me right, Aster? How can someone like me be relegated to such menial tasks? I would be put to better use starting your businesses instead of wasting time learning how to be a maid!"

I gave her a pleading look, "But… I think you would look good in a maid uniform though…"

The Nekomata grimaced, "I would not mind wearing the maid uniform by itself…"

Katsuki crossed her arms, "And I will not allow you to put it on when you don\'t even have the mentality of serving Mistress. This uniform represents all of our desire to serve Mistress."

"Ha? Are you telling me that all the maids in the Nilm Family have the same ideals just because they put on this uniform? I know you guys recently got some slaves from the market and they were allowed to put on these uniforms too weren\'t they? I highly doubt they are that dedicated to Aster right now."

My Inugami maid shook her head, "The uniform they wear is different."

"Different? How?"

"Those were not personally sewn and enchanted by the Madam. The one here was specially made for you by the Madam herself to wear as part of Mistress\'s retinue."

Oh what? Mother sewed these uniforms herself? That\'s the first I\'ve heard of it. I knew she enchanted them but not that she sewed them.

Emilia narrowed her eyes, "How the hell does she know my measurements?"

"You don\'t need to know," Katsuki answered without even missing a beat.

… Mother… Just how much do you know?

That reminds me… She even knew what my size would be in the future when we went shopping for clothes too… Maybe she has clairvoyance or something.

Emilia was now glaring at the maid uniform that hung on a clothes hanger nearby while Katsuki stood in between her and the uniform in question.

"So what would it be, Emilia? I will only allow you to take that uniform if you have the mind to serve Mistress as a proper maid of the Nilm Family."

Emilia pointed at Lisa, "What about her?"

Lisa huffed, "Hey! I serve Mistress properly ok! I make sure that all of my holes are ready to serve her at a moment\'s notice! Actually… You don\'t even need to give me any notice, Aster~ You can just flip up my skirt and start ploughing away if you like~ In fact, please do that sometime, ok? Ehehehe~"

The Nekomata realised that it was a stupid idea to even ask the Infrid who gets off on being submissive to me and sighed.

"Fine… I\'ll try it… But more because Aster asked me to, ok?"

"Of course. Put on the uniform and follow me to the training room."

I raised my hand slightly, "Erm… Hold on… We\'re leaving this place tomorrow though."

Katsuki nodded, "That would not be a problem, Mistress. I will at least teach her your preferences so she doesn\'t mess up something as basic as the tea that you like to drink. If she is going to work as your merchant and secretary, the least she could do is know where she should procure the tea for you."

That actually got Emilia\'s attention, "Oh… Why didn\'t you say so earlier? I wouldn\'t have minded such business opportunities!"

Katsuki scowled at her, "These shouldn\'t be \'business opportunities\', it should be \'what you should do to please Mistress\'. Get the right idea into your head."

Emilia waved her finger at her, "No, no, you don\'t understand! If it\'s like this… I don\'t even need to stop at procuring the tea leaves! I can get some people who know about the specific type of plant and grow them ourselves then market it as something that the \'Young Mistress of the Nilm Family\' drinks on a daily basis and sell it! I bet that would make a killing by itself already!"

"I will remind you not to make use of the Mistress\'s name for your own benefit, Emilia," Katsuki warned sternly.

"Oh you of little faith. Of course I intend to set up these businesses under Aster\'s name and she would be the owner for them. Just think about it! The nobles in the capital would eat it up like starving men in a feast! We\'d even get sponsors and investors from all around trying to get close to the enigmatic Nilm Family!"

She really thinks about money all the time I see…

Lisa huffed, "You know, Emilia… It\'s fine to just relax sometimes too. You\'re with us now, there\'s no need to shoulder everything by yourself."

"I don\'t know what you are talking about."

Lisa pointed her finger at her, "I know you well enough to see through that stupid facade already. We\'re not your old family ok? Aster wouldn\'t throw you aside just because you aren\'t meeting quotas or something as ridiculous as that. There\'s no need to keep doing all that anymore."

Emilia frowned at her, "How… How did you know?"

Lisa rolled her eyes, "Please, did you forget? I watched over you while you healed and you kept talking about not meeting the quotas while crying yourself to sleep. Ah… Wait… I think you were being delirious from the poison and didn\'t even realise you were saying it out loud… Err… Forget about what I said, teehee~"

Lisa quickly ran out of the room as Emilia tried to grab her, a furious look on her face.

…

Erm… I guess I feel like I understand Emilia a little better now I suppose?
