‘… … What is this situation all of a sudden?’

When Do Yu-jin came here, he quickly received Rias’s oath of knighthood and then tried to talk to her about the upcoming Stella class exam.

Because I had one thing I wanted to ask of her, since she held the position of student body president.

Sigh-

‘But I never thought that something unexpected like this would suddenly happen… … ‘

To be honest, it was incredibly embarrassing, but Do Yu-jin kept her back straight and didn’t let that feeling out at all.

If it were Do Yu-jin, the father of two children, no, three, then I wouldn’t know, but now he’s a mysterious assassin named Yoo Ryeong, whose charm lies in his prickly and secretive nature.

Because showing signs of agitation was even more out of line with the character setting of the ghost he had set up.

So what he has to do now as a ghost is… …

“You’re going to replace that guy?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

Yorbi answered with a slight nod of his head, his hands clasped in front of him in a polite manner.

Looking at that sight, Do Yu-jin asked with pure curiosity.

“Do you think I would accept such an offer?”

“Of course I don’t think so.”

Yorbi said in a calm voice.

“After all, compared to Miss Rias, I am lacking in both skill and beauty.”

Huh? Is that so?

Do Yu-jin, who heard Yorubi’s words, muttered to herself without realizing it.

‘Of course, it’s true that she’s inferior to Rias in terms of skill, but it doesn’t seem like she’s lacking in many areas in terms of beauty, right?’

Eyes that are slightly raised and show a proud yet sharp expression, and small lips that are fresh yet tightly closed.

Facial features that are dense yet sharp and alive with light.

There was no denying that her overall impression was sharp and cold, but Do Yu-jin had no intention of finding fault with her face.

If Rias had a charm that was warm and bright like a flame, Yorubi had a charm that was cold and solid like ice.

In other words, in Do Yu-jin’s view, there was only a simple difference in direction between the two people’s looks, and there was nothing that could be called an advantage.

‘Well, Rias’s chest size seems bigger… …but Yorubi’s hips and overall proportions seem better. I guess it would be fair to say that their bodies are a draw.’

So, Do Yu-jin was suffering from an occupational disease that he had suffered from in his previous life when he was famous as a genius painter.

Swish-

Yorbi quietly searched through his arms and then held out a piece of paper in front of Do Yu-jin.

Do Yu-jin was so surprised when she saw him that she muttered without realizing it.

“That’s… … !”

“Yes.”

“Jorby said, putting the paper back into his bosom.

“A contract used among nobles to make important agreements that must never be broken.”

Funnily enough, it was thanks to Yorubi’s words that Do Yu-jin regained her composure.

That would be the case, since the Gears Roll was not something that could be put on the same level as a magical contract that was created by a few dozen or a few hundred Awakened people with magic and curses.

‘That means, right now, surely… … ‘

Do Yu-jin muttered while looking at Yorbi with slightly trembling eyes.

‘Surely… … You don’t know at all what level of object you have in your hands right now?’

It may sound stupid, but it wasn’t impossible.

After all, not all Awakened people had emotional abilities like Do Yu-jin.

‘In fact, thanks to such a behind-the-scenes setting, there was even a time when the community created a separate quest route for beginners to level up.’

While Do Yu-jin was calming her pounding heart.

Twinkle-!

Yorbi, who noticed the ripples blooming in Do Yu-jin’s eyes, thought that now was his chance and quickly opened his mouth.

“As you may already know, there is no binding effect in the knight’s oath. Of course, our old-fashioned young lady would try to keep everything the ghost says… … ”

Swish-

“Contracts made through magic contracts have the power to force the subject of the contract to kneel with a single gesture.”

Ugh, ugh, ugh!

After hearing Yorubi’s explanation, Rias opened her eyes wide and struggled to break the white string that was binding her.

And her efforts like that.

“You can probably guess by looking at the way the young lady is reacting right now.”

Yorbi used it as material to make his words more persuasive.

“I am the young lady’s only precious friend, a subordinate who can be trusted with everything, and a sister-like figure with a similar age difference.”

Swish-

“So if you make a contract with me and use me, you will have no choice but to listen to the ghost.”

Yorbi took a step closer to Do Yu-jin.

“I give you my life, my rights, my will, literally everything I have.”

With those words, she quietly closed her mouth and bowed her head to Do Yu-jin once again.

“So please, I would like to ask you to make a contract with me on behalf of the young lady.”

A touching sacrifice of a maid who serves her master.

Looking at him.

‘No, I don’t know what the fuss is all of a sudden.’

Do Yu-jin, who ended up playing the role of a trash villain in the story, was quietly dumbfounded and then thought about it.

‘First of all, what Yorbi said is not wrong.’

Because she skipped over most of the story, Do Yu-jin didn’t know exactly about the relationship between these two people.

But even he knew that the bond between these two was not simple.

Therefore, given Rias’s personality, it was obvious that if she took Yorubi hostage and gave him orders, she would grant any and all requests.

‘Well, I won’t listen to orders like betraying the three princesses or killing my parents, but I don’t plan on giving such orders anyway, so it doesn’t matter.’

The benefits didn’t end there.

‘I was originally worried about her being too entangled with the main character, so I was planning on letting her go after everything was over, but if I’m signing a contract with her, I don’t think I’ll have to do that, right?’

Well, I don’t know if it will be useful or not, but Do Yu-jin’s philosophy was that even if it is a color of paint that you don’t use, if you keep it, there will come a time when you will use it.

In that respect, it would not be an exaggeration to say that Yorbi’s suggestion just now was scratching Do Yu-jin’s ticklish spot.

‘If you sign a contract with him now, you can even get a Gears role for free.’

Actually, this was the main thing.

While Do Yu-jin was thinking about various things in her head.

“For your information, I was born into a noble family, but I started receiving maid training when I was five.”

Suddenly, Yorbi started saying strange things with a blank expression on his face.

“Therefore, I can assist Ghost in his work by skillfully performing all kinds of household chores, starting with simple things like cleaning, cooking, washing, and laundry.”

Is this a desperate measure?

Or is it the confidence that no one can beat this?

Yorbi spoke with the same expressionless face as before, his voice a little higher in tone than before.

But the funny thing is.

‘General housework?’

The fact was that Do Yu-jin was slightly taken aback by her words just now.

Do Yu-jin, who has recently been experiencing the hardships of housework while taking care of three children,

While Do Yu-jin was keeping her mouth shut for a moment and imagining the bliss of being free from all the housework, Yorbi, who had been hesitating for a moment, spoke with a faint blush on her face.

“And it’s only intellectual, but things like bathing and helping at night are also possible for now… … ”

No, that’s not really necessary.

Thanks to her unexpected suggestion, Do Yu-jin quickly came to her senses and made a decision in her mind, then reached out her hand to Yorbi.

A signal that you accept her offer.

“Ah… … ”

And then, with a soft exclamation, Yorbi looked back and forth between Doyujin’s outstretched hand and Rias’ face lying on the floor.

Swish-

He carefully grabbed Do Yu-jin’s outstretched hand and placed it on his chest.

Because timing was timing, I thought of Do Yu-jin’s extended hand as a kind of test.

‘No, I was just thinking of shaking hands briefly!’

Do Yu-jin screamed like that inside, but as I said before, he was now an unidentified ghost assassin.

Because of that, he couldn’t say anything and could only remain silent as if this was exactly what I wanted.

And while he was frozen like that.

“… … ”

Yorubi turned her head back to the way she had allowed Doyujin to open her heart, and looked at Rias with eyes that said she was sorry that she could do nothing else.

“Dang… … God… … ”

Rias, who saw that sight, looked at Doyujin with complex eyes that burned fiercely like a man who witnessed his woman walking down the street with a blonde punk.

‘There is no such thing as a real melodrama.’

Do Yu-jin let out a light sigh and looked at Yorbi’s chest with the mindset of letting things be.

At that blatant gaze, Yorbi shivered slightly, but what Doyujin was looking at now was not her chest, but the Gears Roll in her arms.

‘Writing like I did to Shigure… … I guess it’s a bit much, right?’

Of course, if you want to write, there’s nothing you can’t write.

The reason Do Yu-jin was able to make a similar contract with her was because, like Yorbi now, she truly wanted to offer herself to Do Yu-jin.

But Do Yu-jin thought that using it on Yorubi would be a waste.

While I was thinking about it like that.

‘Huh? What is it?’

Do Yu-jin felt a sudden sense of discomfort and quickly moved her gaze.

Then, he saw the two of them, who had been filming a sad romance just a moment ago, looking at him with their eyes wide open as if in shock.

Do Yu-jin lowered her gaze slightly, thinking that it seemed like a rather familiar face.

Then, I saw some casual clothes that I had bought.

The coat I was wearing suddenly disappeared without a trace.

And what this meant was simple.

Do Yu-jin’s magical power suddenly ran out.

“Crazy?”

Do Yu-jin, who had finally realized the situation, muttered, forgetting that she was now playing the role of a ghost.
