In the room, I awkwardly put on a small dress given by the master of the devil. The skirt was just above the knee and the long sleeves were white.
Looking at the puddle of blood that had solidified on the floor, I covered my heart and sighed.
The first time to wear a skirt will be more or less uncomfortable, but now it is not the time for me to dwell on this.The first thing is to survive.
I walked barefoot to the iron door of this cell and slowly pulled it open.
Only the two maids were guarding the door, and they opened their mouths when they saw me, but no words came out.
Thinking of my status as a slave, I once again endured the strong discomfort inside me.
"My lady maid, please lead the way for me."
The two maids froze slightly, then lowered their heads and one of them spoke.
"Lord Ilotia, you are the one who deserves to be called lord. You can just call us by our names."
I looked at them in confusion. Did slaves have a higher status than maids?
Another maid began to explain it to me.
"Lord Ilotia is only the slave of Lord Demon King, and is not related to us."
That means I'm just the master's exclusive slave, or maybe the exclusive is closer to the master, so that’s why they call me lord.
But I won't dwell on this issue anymore.
"And what are your names?"
"My name is Linds."
"My name is Daisy."
The two maids are the same height, with the same hair color and hairstyle, and the color of the horns on their heads are the same, too.
But the pupil color is different. Linds's pupil color is brownish but Daisy's is blackish.
"Please lead the way."
The two maids turned around together with a slight nod and led the way for me in front.
Outside was a long corridor with brown walls, cells joined together, and it was not known if there were any prisoners in them.
After following Desiree and the girls for a while, I was a little curious if they would find out if I snuck away, because I was barefoot and there would be no sound at all when I walked, instead the shoes of the two maids clattered in the silent corridor.
So I stopped and tried to secretly turn around and walk in the opposite direction.
"Ilotia-sama."
The two maids immediately turned around and looked at me with a troubled face.
"Please Ilotia-sama cooperate with us and don't run away, if Ilotia-sama disappears we will be killed by the Demon King-sama."
That high-cold demon lord, the woman who is my master.
Bite my lower lip, although I have no friendship with Linds and Daisy in the slightest, I don't want to harm them because of myself. Besides, even if I slip away, I don't know this place, which means that 99% odds will be recaptured by my master.
"Sorry, let's go."
"Yes."
The two maids folded their palms in front of their bodies, slightly bowed their backs and nodded gently before turning back to lead the way for me, looking rather like the palace maids in an old-fashioned TV show.
I looked at their backs, trying to learn a little about this world through the two of them.
"Are Linds and Daisy sisters?"
I started by getting close.
"Yes."
Answered in unison. No wonder they look so much alike, then I began to ask the next question.
"Are you the Demon Lord's exclusive maid?"
"Yes."
"What kind of person is she, Demon Lord?"
The two maids suddenly stopped and turned to look at me, their two pairs of eyes full of melancholy.
Linds bowed slightly towards me and explained, "The Demon Lord's name is Furtoril, and it is said that this Demon Lord is the most brutal one ever."
Daisy also bowed to me as Lindsay did, "We are the seventh appointment of the Demon Lord's maids. Four of the first six were tortured and two were killed."
"Why?"
I frowned. If it was also two people for one maid, then there were four maids who died at the master's hands.
"For not working carefully enough."
Linds replied.
"Yes, Lord Demon King requires meticulousness, and the slightest mistake in doing something can cost one's life."
Daisy replied.
The two maids looked at each other and their faces instantly turned white.
"Lord Ilotia, please forget about it."
Both of them begged me in unison, and I was a bit confused about the situation.
"What's wrong?"
"Demon Lord can read your inner thoughts. If she finds out that we stopped to gossip on our way to lead you to your room, we'll be punished."
"Okay."
I nodded with mixed feelings.
Watching them warily turn back and continue to lead the way for me, my heart clogged for a moment. ButI had to try to make myself forget that the maids had paused here to explain to me.
But the more I tried to forget about it, the more clearly I remembered. And at sunch times, it was easier to ask myself what would keep me from caring about the small talk I'd just had.
"You can talk to me as you go. What is a humanoid weapon Irodia?"
I don't think it would be a crime to explain that, because it's not like she has rules about not chatting during the lead. Just don't stop delaying.
"Ilotia is the most powerful weapon of our demon race. So far no one can match the firepower of Ilotia, whether it is the brave, or the demon king ..."
Speaking here Linds paused for a moment, and Daisy went on to say.
"In fact, you are the third generation of Ilotia. But we don't know how the humanoid weapon was made by Ilotia, and I also hope that Ilotia-sama won't tell us anything from the experiments, which are beyond the knowledge of us, the lower classes."
This information is enough, at least I have a little understanding of what kind of person the Demon Lord, that is, my master, is. Also inquired a little bit about me, experiments, I do not actually know about my experiment. Even if I wanted to talk to Lindsay and Daisy , there is nothing to say.
The place where I woke up at first seemed to be surrounded by a blue substance, and the air was filled with blue smoke with very little visibility.
But it wasn't long before the white men knocked me out.
"So what are we fighting for?"
"Humans."
Linds answered me briefly, but it made my heart tremble slightly.
Although I didn't cross paths with the humans in this world, I was a real normal human in my previous life. So I'm more or less close to them.
If I were to slaughter humans ...
