《Kindred》Chapter 36 – Reading Miss’s Mind…
Advertisement
"Listen well, Latifa. As a personal maid of a noble miss, you always need to know what your master wants. Even before she says it."
I'm currently receiving a lesson on maid duties from Teddy.
I shall not be distracted by Teddy's shining bald head.
Therefore, I nod at him seriously.
"That's why I'm giving you a lesson right now." He says slowly
Hmm? What does he mean by that?
I tilt my head.
"Recall what Prince Si said earlier."
Just as Teddy said, I recall Prince Si's words.
Mei Mei, how about a dinner? Just the two of us?
"Did you recall?" Teddy asks.
"Awu." Yes. I answer him.
"No matter what, your Miss can't go on her own without her personal maid, right?"
Eh? Eeehhhh? Is that so???
Doesn't that mean I failed as a maid?!
"A personal servant must always be by his master's side. He can leave only if master gives the order. But Miss Meira would never give you the order to leave her side. That's what I figured after seeing the interaction between the two of you. Therefore, I, as Prince Si's personal servant, suggested something that would make you want to leave Miss's side." He says slowly.
Huh? What is he talking about?
Why would Miss want to give me what I want?
"You don't seem to understand."
"Didn't Miss Meira present you today with many items that she wanted you to have?" He asks me.
Yes, that's right.
Clothes, jewels, food.
Miss wanted to buy something for me the whole day.
"However, you refused each and every one of them. That's when she saw your face full of expectations when I suggested that I will teach you, she had to allow you to go. She wanted you to have something, but you didn't want anything. Therefore, she decided to let you go with me. Because you wanted to."

Hm? I don't understand...
"I determined that your miss won't order you to leave. Unless you want to leave her side on your own. Therefore, I suggested something that would tickle your interest and make you want to leave Miss Meira's side, leaving Prince Si and Miss Meira alone." Teddy explains.
"All in order to please my master. That is the duty of the personal servant." He adds.
I see!
Because of my interest in being a great maid like Sophia, Prince Si got what he wanted!
What a blunder!
I left Miss with that stealing, annoying, smug lord!
"If you want to be a great servant, you will need to learn everything about your miss first." Teddy says.
"Awuu?" Learn everything?
Teddy nods.
"Everything. Her likes and dislikes, her habits, her favourite color, her favorite smell, the length of her steps when she's in a bad mood."
Eh? What?
Putting her likes and dislikes aside.
The length of her steps when she's in a bad mood?
Wouldn't it better to just read her-
"Right. You basically need to read her mind. That's how you become a great maid." He says slowly.
But, that's not possible!
Reading Miss's mind... Becoming a Martial Saint would be easier!
"Although there are techniques which allow you to read minds of other people, these are very rare. The people in the whole world who have this technique can be counted on your fingers."
Then, it's impossible after all!
"However, by cultivating, one can perceive the changes in the aura around people more precisely." Teddy explains.
"Awuu?!" Really?!
"Latifa, you want to become a great maid like Lady Sophia, right?"
"Awu! Awu!" I answer while nodding.
"Do you know Lady Sophia's cultivation level?" Teddy asks me.
I shake my head.
I don't know Sophia's cultivation level.
She never talks about cultivation.
"Lady Sophia is Mid Martial Sage cultivator!" Teddy says with admiration.
Mid Martial Sage?!
How- No it's Sophia after all...
Huh? But...
Isn't the Quas Emperor the only cultivator in the entire Empire with Mid or higher Martial Sage cultivation?
... How cool!
As expected of Sophia!

Heaven Falls
-Book One Synposis- Vorlanys. A realm created by the angels for mortals. For millennia, many angels have lived amongst the mortals, aiding the mortals in their advancement. The High Angel Forynda has only tolerated this, however. She is concerned that ultimately the flaws of both angels and mortals would combine to create a cataclysm that would shatter both Vorlanys and the angels' home realm of Ceuna. Tragedies, unforeseen by any mortal or angel, set in motion that long-feared calamity and hurtle both worlds toward an irrevocable conflagration. Neither will ever be the same. Follow the lives of multiple characters, from lowly inhabitants of minor villages to the angels of Ceuna themselves, as they experience this approaching doom. *** -Book Two Synopsis- Ceuna has divided. Angels and mortals have taken their sides in a war for the fate of Vorlanys. Forynda, the High Angel and ruler of Ceuna, intends to end the entire struggle in a swift and decisive stroke with her awesome power. Meanwhile, the dissident angels, led by Omonrel, and their mortal allies cling to a thin hope that fate will break in their favor. All hopes for a quick end to the conflict will soon be dashed, however, to the detriment of all sides. The war for Vorlanys will take on a frightening new turn while mortals and angels alike discover previously unknown truths about their reality. ~~~ Some additional comments for readers: This is a project with a very ambitious arc encompassing a huge number of characters over a long period of time. If you are looking for a tight focus on just a handful of characters, that's not this story. It is meant to provide a broad series of perspectives on an absolutely calamitous world-shaping war. Thanks for reading and be sure to leave comments, ratings, and reviews at your convenience. I love hearing from you.
