The Legendary Nekomimi Maid

When I woke up as the sun s.h.i.+ne through the window, Nellie was still sleeping curled up in my arms.

As I watched her intently, sometimes her cat ears would twitch, or her tail would flap around; it was extremely adorable.
As I grabbed the base of her ears without thinking, I felt something rubbing my middle finger.

“Fuya…n!?”

Nellie’s body trembles.

“Sleepyhead~ you’re still not awake? If you don’t wake up, I’ll play with you some more~”

This time I quietly walk my opposite hand across Nellie’s bottom, arriving at the base of her tail.
Then I place 3 fingers on the other side and gently stroke it. (ED: Here comes the MOFU ~ MOFU!)

“Auuun… n…”

As I look at her expression, I realize that she was biting her lip and enduring it.
It seems she’s been awake all along.

“You… pretending to be asleep? Bad girls deserve punishment♪”

*Bite*

I lightly bite Nellie’s ear.

“Hiuuuun!!”

Nellie instinctively opens her eyes.

“O-ha-yo” (Good morning)

“Pretending to be asleep~ did you want more?”

“Is that it?”

Going along with the mood, I quietly stroke her throat with my pointer finger.

“Ha, hafu… n… u……”

“If you won’t say it… This”

Suddenly, I launch a simultaneous attack, biting her ear and stroking her tail.

“Aaaaaaa! Nooo!”

Well, since sleeping with Nellie, I’ve become a bit more S-like. (ED: S is for s.a.d.i.s.t)

“S-sorry… Sh… s.h.i.+no-sama’s fingers felt so good! I pretended to be asleeeeeep!”
“Yes, good job~”

I lick Nellie’s lips and release her from my arms.
Panting and twitching, Nellie’s body is still shaking. (ED: IS THIS LEGAL?!? CALL THE COPS WE GOT A 21 YRS OVER HERE DOING IT WITH A 14 YRS)

“A… ah, I was kissed…”
“Hahaha, it’s between girls, so it doesn’t count.” (ED: No comment…)

I take off the still-unmoving Nellie’s bed clothes, dry her sweat with a wet towel, and change her into the ninja clothes.

“Uun… It’s the other way around, again…”

“Y, yes…”

In the end, by the time Nellie could stand, the inn’s breakfast had ended, so after we nibbled some skewers at a stand outside, we headed to the guild.

With that, I arrived at the guild with Nellie.
But haven’t I been to the guild every day since I came here…

“h.e.l.lo~”

I don’t know which window is for the cla.s.s change, so I first call out to the receptionist I became acquainted with yesterday, Mishera.

“Yes, s.h.i.+no-san, h.e.l.lo.”

“For s.h.i.+no-san?”

“Ah, Nellie-san… Come to think of it, you became cla.s.s level 15 yesterday… Then please enter from that door and go into the room at the end of the hallway.”

When I opened the door at the end of the hallway, there was a room, roughly 12 mats, with a magic circle roughly 3 meters in size.
By the way, the wall was packed with bookshelves, and the original wall could not be seen.

“Welcome.”

An old man wearing a gray robe and gla.s.ses in the inner part of the room called out to us.
There’s no one else, so is this old man in charge of cla.s.s change?

“Excuse me… Is this the right room for a cla.s.s change?”

“Ha?”
“You, I don’t know why, but you have multiple souls flickering in you… It’s be a gamble if a cla.s.s change would succeed in such an unstable condition.”

I thought he was just an old man (jii-chan), but he’s actually pretty good.
The multiple souls must be the manifestation of my other characters.

“Ah, you don’t need to worry. I want a cla.s.s change for my attendant… this one.”

“Haha, maybe another time…”

He’s a pretty playful old man, but I don’t have time to play around with him now.

“Alright. Then miss, could you tell me your current cla.s.s and your desired cla.s.s?”

“Mm? Slave? … Ah, sorry, I was surprised at how clean you were… So, if you’re a slave, you need permission from your master; are you alright on that end?”

“Like she said… If I kept a girl as cute as Nellie in such an unsightly condition, it’d be a loss for the whole world, you know? Don’t you think so too, ojii-chan?”
“Indeed, I feel that same.”

The old man has good eyes. I can trust him. (ED : WHERE THE h.e.l.l ARE THE COPS!?)

“Then could you stand in the middle of the magic circle and face this way…”

At the old man’s words, Nellie moves to the center of the magic circle.

“Then, a preliminary check.”

The outermost ring of the magic circle emits light and rises.

“Mm, it looks like the conditions for the cla.s.s change are cleared… No problems with changing to Maid, either.”

The magic circle’s light dies down.

“I’ll confirm one more time. Are you sure you want to change cla.s.s?”
“Yes, please… More than now… I want to be useful to s.h.i.+no-sama.”

Ooh, nekomimi maid moe~ I feel slightly guilty at recommending the Maid cla.s.s…

“Alright, then, here we go!”

The magic circle is filled with light that can’t be compared to the light from before.

“!”
“Don’t move! Even if it fails, don’t step out from the magic circle!”

At the old man’s sharp voice, Nellie stands firm without moving.

「クラス情報…『メイド』を解凍…」

“Cla.s.s information… Unfreezing [Maid]…”

One book from the bookshelves on the walls flies toward the old man.

“Yes… then… expanding the field of memory… sending the cla.s.s’s basic information… sending the skill information… starting the normalization of fundamental ability…”

I can’t see well because of the light, but I hear Nellie’s painful-sounding moans… advanced the job change a bit, but it seems like it’s pretty difficult

“OK! This is the last step! Save!”

As I thought the light would grow especially brighter, it immediately dies down… I see Nellie is safe.

“Is it finished?”

“Any abnormalities!?”
“No… It’s probably not anything bad… The guild card’s been rewritten as well; I’ll confirm it.”

While holding doubts because of the old man’s words, I go to pick up Nellie who’s standing in a daze in the center of the magic circle.

“Are you alright? Nellie?”
“… Ah, s.h.i.+no, sama…”

Nellie falls down in my arms.

“It’s a little… warm and pleasant… Like when I’m sleeping while held by s.h.i.+no-sama…”

“Hoho, I see…”

The old man looks at us while grinning.

“Wait! It’s not like that…”

“Like I said…”
“Rest a.s.sured, I won’t tell anyone…”

Stop with those warm eyes!

“Honestly… Old man, is there a sofa or anything? This one probably can’t stand for a while.”
“Yes, there’s one in the neighboring break room. You can just let her sleep in that sofa… Shall I brew some tea?”

I move to the break room, guided by the old man, and place Nellie to sleep on the sofa.

“Here, green tea from a country in the east. You’re familiar with this type right?

Eh, green tea? Why did he say I’d be familiar with green tea…

“There’s a lot of people with black hair and ivory-colored skin in the eastern countries… I wasn’t sure whether to go with this or b.u.t.ter tea; seems I made the right choice.”

… It seems I can’t let my guard down around this old man… Just by seeing my expression, he saw that green tea was the “right choice”.

“… s.h.i.+no, sama.”

Nellie gets up from the sofa.

“Nellie, are you better already?”

“I see, it seems the cla.s.s change itself was carried out without any trouble, so should we go check the card?”
“Yes.”

Nellie activates the card,
when doubt surfaces on her expression.

“s.h.i.+no… sama.”

“My cla.s.s turned into [Luminous Maid]…”

“What?”

“Hoho, it’s become Luminous Maid… This is another… rare cla.s.s among the rare cla.s.ses.”

The old man’s eyes gleamed at Nellie’s words.

“Nellie… Can you show me your card?”
“Yes, s.h.i.+no-sama… here you go.”

I receive the activated card and confirm the contents.

“Hm… The status values have generally risen. The affinity for light’s become 20%… “Housework Tool Mastery” under skills is probably because of Maid, though… Indeed, the cla.s.s name is [Luminous Maid].”

I look at the old man and ask for explanation.

“Right, I shall explain… Luminous Maid is a Maid specializing in the light attribute… When the magical power at the time of the cla.s.s change is extremely high, and there’s an affinity for light… Very rarely it’s derived from the Maid cla.s.s.”

“Yes, you could say it’s upwards-compatible with Maid… The light ability should be at its maximum… Goodness, you’ve shown me something extremely rare.”

“… Well, in the first place… There aren’t many people who want to cla.s.s change into Maid… If they want to be a Maid, then just registering as a Maid at the guild is much more common.”
“… I see, if there aren’t many chances for a cla.s.s change, then you don’t see it very often.”

… Well, it seems like it’s not a bad thing… I’m relieved.
I sat down next to Nellie and pat her head.

“Good work; isn’t that great? You got the super-rare cla.s.s “Luminous Maid”.”

“That’s not true; your affinity for the light attribute was good.”

Incidentally I also rub her ears.

“If you do that…”

“Not my ears… I’ll lose my… strength…”

Ah, I did it too much… wait, I get the feeling Nellie’s ears are getting more sensitive.
I didn’t do anything wrong. Probably.

“Hoho… a feast for sore eyes.”

Ah, I forgot the old man was there.

“S, sorry… The fee was one silver coin, right?”
“Indeed, thank you very much. Take care, you too… I’m looking forward to meeting you again.”

I take Nellie with me and leave the guild.

(TL: I’m not sure if there’s more than one lord)

“For that, if you turn right at this road… Minster Clothing Store, I think.”

“Yes.”
“Then, let’s go there.”

“Excuse me.” (Entering the store)

The inside of the store was lit with magical lights or something, and it was lined with everything from dresses to working clothes that I could tell were high-cla.s.s goods with one glance.

“Welcome.”

A woman in her early thirties with chestnut hair emerged from the back of the store.

“Welcome to Minster Clothing Store. Will you be buying something today? Or do you need something tailored?”

“Yes! I handle all of the uniforms for the lord’s maids at this store.”

Yes, I was right.

“Actually, this one… Her guild cla.s.s is the Maid, and I was thinking I’d might as well get some good clothes.”

“Ah, the ones sold regularly are OK, so could you bring out the ones with the best material?”
“I understand. Then how about this…”

And what she brought out was a dark blue long skirt cla.s.sic-type uniform.

She also recommended a headdress and shoes as a set.

“This is good; this set and a spare, for a total of two sets… and the underwear set, 5 each for me and her, please.”
“Alright, thank you very much… Then, to measure your sizes… Please wait for a bit.”

After I and Nellie told her our sizes, a woman went to the back to get the goods.
As expected, there wasn’t any female underwear in [Sengoku Online]… even if there were, it’d probably be “kos.h.i.+maki”; as a modern-day woman, I wouldn’t want that.

“Thanks for waiting; here you go.”

Oh? Besides the maid uniform… the underwear was unexpectedly good. It’s soft, and the feeling is close to silk.

“Thanks, how much is in total?”
“Yes, in total… 20 silver pieces… 2000 krams.”

Ah, in any world, women’s clothing costs money… I’m rich right now, so it’s fine.

“Then, here’s the payment.”

“It’s fine; half of it is for my own tastes.”

I quickly take out 20 silver pieces from the small bag I’ve been using as a wallet and pay.

“Thank you very much; we await your next visit.”

After leaving Minster Clothing Store, we shopped around for daily supplies and the like, but before we knew it, it was already noon.

“Alright, let’s return to our inn and get some food.”

Fortunately, like my previous world, people eat three meals a day, so if you ask beforehand, you can get lunch at the first floor of the inn.

“OK, s.h.i.+no-sama.”

Maybe because she was happy about the cute clothes, but Nellie was holding the maid outfit close to her chest the whole time we were talking.

Leading her, I returned to our regular inn.

“Yup, it was delicious today as well… perhaps because it’s a coastal town, but I didn’t expect even sas.h.i.+mi to come out…”

As expected, there wasn’t any soy sauce, but the sas.h.i.+mi we ate with the seasoning similar to yuzu zest and chili peppers was delicious.

It wasn’t as good as the one when we were at the suite room, but the amount was plenty, and above all, the two of us were properly served two servings.

“Yes… the fish… was very delicious.”

Nellie kind of looked like she was hallucinating (TN:lit. tripping). Apparently because of her terrible food situation as a slave, she gets like this when she eats good food. It’s cute, so it’s fine.

“Nellie, are you OK? If you want to take a break, then we can go to our room. I also have… something I need to do.”

Supporting the unsteady Nellie, We returned to our room on the second floor.

When we entered the room, I set Nellie on the bed, and I unfasten the supplies we bought today.

From there, I apply scissors to the two sets of maid uniforms and one set of underwear…

“U, um… s.h.i.+no-sama? What are you doing?”

“I was thinking of taking apart one set.”

“W, why? The clothes we just bought.”

“Hm, I was thinking of using it as a replacement for pattern paper.”

“？？？？”

Fufufu, confused Nellie is extremely cute.

“It’s the final stage of the Nekomimi Maid Project! I’m preparing combat maid clothes!”

“… Perhaps… can you also make clothes?”

「まかせて」
“Leave it to me!”

In “Sengoku Online”, there were no cla.s.ses just for production or for combat. Every cla.s.s had an aspect of a combat cla.s.s and an aspect of a production cla.s.s.

By the way, the four cla.s.ses I have are:

Ninja: Production of cloth equipment and ninja tools

Exorcist: Production of magic tools and summoning charms

Blacksmith: Production of metal weapons and armor

Healer: Production of all types of medicine and pill boxes.

As such, every cla.s.s has its own specialty for production.

Originally, in the game, the item called [Pattern Paper] was required to make clothes, but as a replacement, I was thinking of taking apart a set of clothing.

“Ah, before I do that, I should change my skills… Skill set [Production]”

[Dexterity Up] [Masterwork Probability Up] [Advanced Sewing] [Cloth Armor Production] [Inventory Maximum Weight Up]

[Magical Power Bestowal] [Physical Power Bestowal] [Bestowal Rate Up] [Advanced Sense of Beauty] [Relaxation]

Having changed my skills, I resume work.

Oh, as expected of [Advanced Sewing] and [Dexterity Up]; I finished taking it apart in just a moment.

After that, I line them it in order on the floor… I take out the materials from my inventory.

Imagining the finished product, I activate [Cloth Armor Production].

Then, my hands begin to move around on their own at a super-high speed and sew together the materials.

Using upper cotton, boiled-off silk, and figured sating as a base, I add King Tiger’s Fur and Divine Dragon’s Scales as a supplement.

Normally a [Maid] would be able to equip some leather equipment… but to make up for that and let it pa.s.s a a maid outfit, I spared no expense on the materials!

Also, because it’s for combat, I made the skirt slightly shorter and set it below the knee.
“Hmm, can I use this as well…”

For the lump of magic power called the [Bestowal Orb] normally used for adding enchantments, I tried using the [Death Mantis]’s magic stone as a replacement.

“Ooh, it looks like it’ll go well…”

When I crushed the magic stone I held in my hand, the magical power let off light and was absorbed into the clothes.

After that, using the magic dyes I made as a healer, dye the whole outfit in one go with the default color.

As a finis.h.i.+ng touch, I would like to decorate the chest with a large magic stone, but…

“Hmm… if I use a diamond, it’ll be a bit too gaudy.”

I’ll use the Blue Mountain Stone, with the same light attribute, to decorate it.

“Alright! The clothes are done! After that is the headdress.”

This one’s small, so there’s not much room to adjust…

“For now let’s use the tortoisesh.e.l.l as a base… for the cloth, upper cotton… using Yaksha Spider’s Thread as hemming gives it strength… I want to give it magic resistance, so I’ll crush this obsidian…”

Into the headdress, the pure black of the obsidian becomes light and enters.

“Well, it’s more or less done? I did a good job.”

I wipe the sweat off my brow and realize that Nellie’s being awfully quiet.

“What’s wrong, Nellie? Are you OK?”

“s.h.i.+, s.h.i.+, s.h.i.+, no-sama…”

“Hm?”

“How much are you going to do—-! These clothes!!”

“How much… hmm.”

You can’t make a direct comparison with Sengoku Online’s currency… it’d be about the cost of the smallest residence you can buy in the system.

“About enough to buy a small house?”

“………Hii!”

…Nellie lost consciousness. (ED: poor nellie xD)

An hour later. After she woke up, Nellie refused firmly, but after saying that it’d be essential from now on in battle, and that it’d be a benefit to me as well… I finally got her to put on the clothes.
New Equipment:

[Maid Outfit of Moonlight]

Maker: S I N O

Level Restriction: Above 15

Race Restriction: Only Cat-type Beastmen

Cla.s.s Restriction: Only Maid-type

Defense: 75

Magic Defense: 60

Race Restriction: Only Cat-type Beastmen

Cla.s.s Restriction: Only Maid-type

Defense: 30

Magic Defense: 55

By the way, the reason for the tight restrictions is that it raises the performance… As a result, it became an equipment only Nellie can wear… It seems like no one’s heard of a beastman maid.

Well, anyway.

One part of my ambition, Nekomimi Maid Project, is complete! Woohoo~ clap clap clap.

“Yes yes, you’re very cute, Nellie!”

“Th, thank you very much, s.h.i.+no-sama…”

約１名青い顔をして表情が引きつっていますが…慣れてください。

Her face was pale and looked stiff… please get used to it.

You ran out of luck when you became my maid.
