After I was threaten to expose what I was doing in the kitchen this afternoon, the boys when back into the kitchen to do the interview once more and do the same thing like I did but they all failed because Anne said there was no need anymore dish washers. While the boys were shedding tears while trying to comfort each other's lost hope and dreams, I skipped going to the study session held in Alter's room and went back to my room. I laid on my mattress after tossing my bag aside in the bedroom. Doing so, I felt a huge weight on me had been lifted and my body felt light.
Let's just skip dinner and sleep. So I shutted my eyes and fallen into deep sleep since I was quite tired this whole day. I managed to slept until tomorrow's dawn rose and the alarm clock which I had yet to change the alarm rang. I did a few stretchers before making the alarm clock go quiet. Since I didn't shower yesterday, I still had my uniform on me, I took it off and head to shower after tossing them into the basket. After done showering, I put on my uniform instead since I had no plans to enter the dungeon today as well. I carried the basket and put it outside my entrance door before leaving my room to take a walk around the school.
Haa~, this can't continue, why am I so afraid of that one little ball of goo? I'm so pathetic.
I keep walking, walking aimlessly around the schoolground as I do not have a destination to walk to. I kept walking until I reached the cafeteria, it was located just a stone throwed away from the classrooms. Since I wandered here, I decided to head to the door connected to the kitchen, the counter was closed and I couldn't see anything through the glass. I stood infront of the door, wondering to enter or not until someone opened it gently. I didn't stood close enough to the door for it to bang me therefore the door just swung right infront of me. The person who opened the door was Anne, when she noticed me she made a surprised face.
- What are you doing here?
- To work.
- Oh.
When I stated my reason to be here with a blatant lie, she giggled.
Before she even answer my answer, I knew what she was going to say next so I thought to myself about how to I answer her?
- There isn't any dishes to wash this early in the morning.
- Yeah, you see, because I didn't do my work last night, I decided to come here to chop or peel any ingredients needed to be chopped for free.
- Oh~, we did it last night. Besides, I forgot to tell you that you will start work today, not yesterday, so don't worry about it.
- Oh, ok. Bye.
- Eh?
Without questioning her confused face, I turned and decided to leave the the cafeteria, wondering whether to head back home or not, someone suddenly grabbed my hand. I looked back and saw that it was Anne, she also showed a displeased face to me.
- You leaving just like that?
- Yeah.
I answered her straightforwardly, which caused her brows to twitched.
- You see, after breakfast we need you to clean the dishes, so why not stay till then?
- But it's still over an hour left.
- I can keep you accompany.
When she said the phrase, keeping me accompanied, I almost forgotten about my objective. I couldn't believe I would forget such a thing. I would be lying if I said I didn't forgot about me being transfer into an eroge game before during my childhood, but that time I didn't know about my hidden power existing within me so I didn't thought much about dirty thoughts. But now, when I have it, I apparently still manage to forget about my objective to rape girls. Did I get traumatised too much by that ball of goo? Because I had been silent for quite a while, Anne questioned me.
- What's wrong? Is your head flowing with dirty thoughts about me? What a perv.
- Yeah, I guess? It's 50 50.
- What's with that vague answer?
- Anyway, I guess I can stay here till breakfast time.
- Okay, come in!
She pulled my hand gently and we both entered the kitchen, I saw the maids diligently working with their work. I could see them wiping the kitchen utensil and cleaning the counter, walls and the sink including sweeping the floor. I felt great for some reason when I see this scenery and apparently I didn't even realized I stopped moving when I entered the kitchen after taking a couple of steps in.
- You like the kitchen this much? What a weirdo.
- At least it's more clean than you.
- Excuse me? Want a beating from me?
- So, how are you planning to keep me occupied in this 1 hour plus?
- Simple! Go to the agriculture club and get us some vegetables.
- You're making me do errand rather than what you promised.
- But I'm not making you feel bored like I promised.
- Fine.
I exited the kitchen and when to the Agriculture Club 5 minutes walk away. I got there and could see a huge glass half sphere covering a huge land, even the door and doorknob was made of glass. From outside, nothing was inside, but when I entered, I could see a huge crop field. The smell of freshness and the wind felt like natural wind was blowing within the sphere. A variety of vegetables and fruits were growing inside of this half sphere like tomatoes, potatoes, bananas, cocoa and coffee beans. A girl was watering the the plants with a watering can elegantly until she noticed my arrival before stopping what she was doing.

- How may I help you?
Long lace dark green hair with her skin fairly smooth, her attractive jade green eyes were questioning my arrival and expressing a sour face.
- I need to collect ingredients for the cooking club.
- All alone? How cruel, I pity you.
- What's wrong? How many am I carrying back?
Pointing at slightly left side of my direction, I saw about a dozen of plastic bags on the ground all separated neatly. Bags filled with potatoes, some filled with bananas while the others were bags of beans.
Is this what she meant by I won't be bored? I'm going to take a few trips back and forth like this.
- I sympathy with your suffering, let me open the door for you whenever you need to leave here.
- Do you keep your words?
- Hm? Why does it sounds like you're blackmailing me?
- I am? Sorry, just felt agitated.
- I see, sorry for doubting you.
I saw her walking towards me while I was carrying the plastic bags on both hands, she opened the door for me to leave since I had no hands to open it. I verbally convey my thanks to her before leaving and she nodded as an answer to my gratitude. Closing the door behind me, I headed to the cafeteria. I arrived and a girl was standing outside of the doorway to the kitchen. The girl was the one with Anne during the interview.
Now that I took a good look at her, she has short pinkish hair, peach coloured eyes and a timid aura can be felt around her. She apparently bowed upon my arrival, express her thanks and opened the door for me to enter.
- I'm bewildered.
- Eh?
- I have a red necktie, don't I? I'm suprised you would treat me with such hospitality.
- Uhm, should I scorn at you?
- Actually, forget what I just said and you do you.
- Eh, eh?
I placed the plastic bags on the table and couldn't balance the bags properly, the potatoes and beans rolled out but didn't fall. The quality of the plastic bags were so strong that it can withstand such heavy weights, better than my old world. How is this world so weirdly developed? Well, as expected of a shitty eroge game, even the slimes are so strong and I can't even do it once.
- Hey, what if they fell and got spoiled? (Anne)
- Sorry, couldn't balance them. But I put the bags further in.
Speaking about how shit this world is, I use skill on Anne and did not feel surprised to see her in rank A.
- Alright, stop staring at my gorgeous face. Carry the rest of the ingredients, there's almost an hour left before we open.
What a narcissistic woman, did the other perverts influenced you? But it's not an exaggeration to say that what she said about herself is wrong though, since most boys regarded her as a goddess in the school.
- Do you need my help?
- Don't help him, he would get bored otherwise. Just help him open the door.
- Uhm, okay.
- Wow, I was so right to admire the cleanliness of the kitchen.
- Sounds like you really want a beating from me.
The pink haired girl grabbed Anne to stop her from moving towards me. I left the kitchen and went back to the Agriculture Club. I did this back and forth a few times until when I don't have to come back here again, we introduced ourselves to one another and that was how I know a member from the Agriculture Club was named Mehreen. I head back to the cafeteria and she opened the door for me.
- Thanks for the help, Carlos.
- No problem.
Unfazed by the fact she called me Carlos, I was Anne rose her hand to grab the bags on my hands so I handed them to her.
- Okay, let me introduce you to our 2 other club members!
- What, just two? So is the club lack of members replaced by these beatiful maids?
- No, they hired to work here as cooks.
- Oh, and here I thought you did a terrible job so the principal need to hired them to prevent starvation from occuring in the school.
- Huh? The boys yesterday all just want to join to see me rather than working. Of course I didn't let them join.
So the other member is a girl, lucky me.
Anne grabbed the pink haired girl over and told her to wait there while she went to bring the other member over. She was timidly looking away from me when we locked eyes. We had an awkward moment among us. Before Anne comes back, I introduced myself to her uninterestedly.
- Hey, My name is Carlos. What's yours?
- Olivia, Noble Olivia.
- Thanks.
- Sigh...I don't understand anymore...
I couldn't hear what she said just now since she spoked softly. Anne came back with another girl. She also looked timid.
- Ok~ This person here is Olivia. And this one is Vivian.
- Nice to meet you. (Olivia)
- Uh, likewise. (Vivian)
Both of them bowed, so I bowed and introduced myself once more.
- Name's Carlos. Nice to meet you both.
- Alright, Let's continue our work! It's less than 40 minutes now before breakfast. (Anne)
- So, what am I supposed to do?
- I have no idea, how about wiping the cleaned dishes for now until we need them. (Anne)
- Okay.
I went to the sink to wipe the dishes while watching them work. I saw dozens and dozens of eggs got carried out from inside of the storeroom by the maids, around 15 dozens of eggs were carried out. When they worked, because the maids worked here before, I didn't feel weird that the kitchen wasn't in turbulent. And also, I just realized that the kitchen was organize in a way so that there’s as little unnecessary movement as possible, allowing the maids to work hastily and effectively as not to waste any time. Maids were cracking the eggs, mixing the bowl, frying the pans, peeling the potatoes and the likes.
Holy moly, even the whole kitchen isn't so noisy, the sounds they were making was like a radio tuning several music, but if I concentrated my mind and listen to only one maid working, it's like a melody. As expected of these professional cooks.
- You look like you're yourself it's kind of creepy.
- Anne, although your voice is lovely, you ruin it.
- Ruin it? Ruin what?
- Can't you hear the sounds? The sound of chopping, the sound of the frying oil and even the bowl being mixed. Can't you hear them?
- Oh~, what about them?
- These sounds are just like music, Anne. It's just so lovely to hear them.
Then, when I said so, the sounds disappeared. When I turned to look at the kitchen, everyone stopped moving, the maids, even the club members were all watching me.
- What's wrong?
- This boy, he knows. (Maid)
- He knows the art of preparing food. (Maid)
- When did he learn it when he's only a commoner? (Maid)
- What's happening?
Seeing my suprised faces, I was dumbfounded so I asked Anne but she's just smiling, the smile was way too mesmerizing that If I looked at it for too long I might get absorbed into it so I looked away.
- No, it's nothing. I'm glad I can fine someone like you here! What a big catch!
- Argh, don't slap my back with such force! I almost drop the plate!
- Alright, not much time left, let's continue with our work before time's up! (Anne)
The maids silently went back to work without answering.
- Hey, take a rest. You going to need to wash a few bowls and pans soon. (Anne)
- Yeah, I could tell.
Rather than reusing the same pans to fry, using a clean new one was better so I'm going to need to clean and scrub many times. While I was wiping another plate, suddenly, I saw Anne silhouette coming closer to me and could feel something soft just touch my cheek. When that happened, this time, I barely regained my strength to prevent the plate from falling.
- Oh, what was that for! I almost drop the plate?
- Hmm? What do you mean?
- Don't look so confuse, I'm talking about the kiss.
- Oh, I did it because it's necessary, something wrong with it?
- Huh, necessary?
- Yeah.
She doesn't feel like what she did was weird and was a necessary thing to do. Am I the weird one here? Is that some sort of etiquette known among nobles? Or she took a liking to me? No, wait, is it that?!
- Uh, you okay?
- Oh, yeah, I'm good. Sorry to disturb you.
I used skill on her, and I saw it.
Anne's affection rose to 50%. Not just her, affection for the 9 maids in here and the 2 club members were also at 50%.
