But just as she was about to agree, the head maid of the Rurikawa family, Shion, came to find her.
The Rurikawa family could pay off all of the Kanzaki family's debts, and even arrange well paid jobs for her family, so they would not have to worry about their future livelihood.
However, the price was that she would become a lifelong maid of the Rurikawa family, serving the future head of the Rurikawa family and obeying all of his requests.
Compared to putting herself on a special menu and being chosen without any dignity, just becoming one person's personal maid should be much better.
Although she did not know why the future head of the Rurikawa family was Hachiman. Was it not said that Student Council President Kaede was Hachiman's childhood friend?
She knew Hachiman. He was a student at Sobu High just like her, and because of things like being on the discipline committee and the elf princess, his name was very famous at Sobu High.
According to rumors, there already seemed to be many girls in the school who had very close relationships with him. She just did not expect Hachiman to be this incredible. Even the Rurikawa family's young lady and the student council president and others all had to serve him together.
She would probably only become a bed warming maid in the future, and she might not even get a turn to warm the bed.
After all, the master she was about to serve not only had many girls around him, but even just this time, there were already several maids serving him.
Sayo lowered her head silently in front of Shion. While constantly comforting herself in her heart to calmly face the master she was about to meet, she secretly glanced at the two other girls beside her who were also wearing maid outfits.
Even though her own situation was miserable, with her wealthy family falling apart and her having to sell herself to save her parents and become someone's personal maid.
It seemed she was not the only girl here who had sold herself to the Rurikawa family.
She was not very familiar with Kushida Kikyo, who had transferred from the Advanced Nurturing High School not long ago, but the other one was that quiet and dignified, black haired hime cut, Yamato Nadeshiko like elegant and gentle Akira.
If it were just a breakup between lovers, that would be easier to deal with, but did she not already have a fiance? It was said they were about to get married. Could it be that she also had to cancel the engagement and sell herself to the Rurikawa family like her?
"Sayo, I have already sent people to negotiate with your parents' creditors. They will not be in a hurry to look for buyers, so do not disappoint me," Shion looked at the distracted Sayo and spoke to remind her.
"I know you have no experience, but in such a short time at noon, Tsubaki and the others will not be enough anyway. You do not need to go that far. Just let the master feel your loyalty."
Actually spending such a large amount of money to hire a maid was not necessary. Even if this maid was indeed very pretty and had a good figure, the same amount of money could easily hire more than ten times as many beautiful women to come be the master's maids.
Even though among the girls around the master now, very few of them liked him because of money, and aside from a very small number of relatives and pets, the master had not even specifically given money to support them.
But it had to be admitted that many places in this society still pursued money.
This time they would first test whether the master liked it. If the master did not like spending so much money to fish up a pretty girl who was about to fall into the gutter, then next time they would not fish again.
"Understood, Head Maid. I will serve the master well."
Noticing that Shion did not seem to have much hope in her serving Hachiman, Sayo's heart tightened. She stopped sneaking glances at Kushida Kikyo and Akira beside her and deeply lowered her head in respect.
Although becoming Hachiman's personal maid after only meeting him a few times, even saying that her life would revolve around him from now on, made her feelings extremely complicated, she also had to admit that she could not sell herself for this price anywhere else.
If Shion suddenly did not want her and went to find someone else instead, her parents would be finished. Even selling her parents might not be enough, and then those creditors would come after her and even drag her little sister into it.
"Akira, what about you? You can still back out now. Once the master arrives, if you want to back out then, I will not go easy on you."
Shion did not pay any more attention to Sayo, who was about to cost a lot of money, but instead looked at Akira, who had already cost money.
Actually Sayo and Akira, the maids currently at home, were also pretty good, but they were not students, so arranging them into the school would not be convenient.
Also, the Service Club side needed someone watching it, to prevent it from becoming full of people arranged by Yukinoshita Haruno in the future, so this time she had these newly recruited maids who had not even received two days of maid training go on duty for a trial.
Sayo, whose parents' lives were in danger, and Kushida Kikyo, who had been abandoned by her parents and told to fend for herself, did not need to be worried about.
The only one not stable enough was this Akira who had just lost her fiance.
Even though Akira's fiance owed a lot of money and caused her, as his guarantor, to almost be dragged into a cult, Akira still held hope for her missing fiance, thinking that he must be working hard somewhere just like her.
"Um, normal maid work, no matter how hard or tiring, I can do. But the maid service later, does it really have to go that far? Hachiman, he should not know about your arrangement, right?", Akira, who was wearing a maid outfit that outlined her beautiful figure just like Sayo, tightly grabbed the dark red lace skirt that barely covered her thighs and looked at Shion with embarrassment.
She had already prepared herself to work as a maid for the Rurikawa family to repay her debts, making money at school during the day and making money at the Rurikawa household after school. If she worked harder, she should be able to slowly pay off the debt the Rurikawa family helped her with.
But the maid skirt, which should at least have reached her knees, would show everything with just a slightly bigger movement.
And Head Maid Shion wanted them to do their utmost to serve Hachiman.
She could barely accept serving Hachiman as a personal maid during meals, but it was obvious Shion was not satisfied with that. She wanted her and Kushida and Kanzaki to carry out intimate service that went beyond the normal master servant relationship.
"I originally did not want to tell you so early, but after thinking about it, I should let you know the truth about your fiance first."
Seeing Akira still holding onto fantasies about her fiance, Shion let out a small sigh. Her figure suddenly disappeared from the spot, and a few seconds later she appeared again, this time holding a file.
"The truth about my fiance? You found Takayuki?"
Akira's face lit up with joy as she stared at Shion with hope.
Even though she no longer had to worry about the debt and the cult had been wiped out, Takayuki's whereabouts had never been found, and she had been extremely worried about him this whole time.
"Take a good look."
Shion tossed the documents in her hand to Akira and said calmly.
"Actually your fiance was also at Kokutetsu Academy that day. But guess why the master did not tell you."
"It is not that the master wanted to hide it from you, but that your fiance was not even called Saijo Takayuki."
"His real name was Kaji Tomoyuki, and he died together with the cultists there when Lycoris surrounded Kokutetsu Academy."
"That is right. Your fiance was a member of the cult. In fact, a large part of the debt you owe was offered to the cult."
"That is impossible. I met Takayuki's parents!"
Akira stared tightly at the materials in her hands as she flipped through them. She had always been calm, and even when facing Shion's outrageous demands she was only a bit embarrassed, but this time she finally could not hold it back.
Takayuki was dead? And he was a cultist? Even his name was fake?
No, no. When they got engaged, she and her parents had clearly met Takayuki's parents. Otherwise, her parents, who were both teachers and somewhat conservative, would not have so easily agreed to her engagement to him.
"Hehe! If your so called fiance's name was fake, do you think his parents were real or fake?"
Shion looked at Akira, whose face was growing paler and paler, with some pity.
"I do not know whether you are lucky or unlucky. The fiance you thought you were deeply in love with was lying to you from the very beginning."
"But even though you became a joint guarantor for a scammer and owed a huge debt, and were even almost tricked by this debt into joining a cult, the master stopped it. Not only did he wipe out the cult, he even paid off your debt for you."
Before, Hachiman had instructed her to coordinate with Lycoris on the aftermath of wiping out the cult, to arrange some assistance for the victims and provide some humanitarian financial aid.
Originally she had just been carrying out his orders step by step, but when organizing the materials, she unexpectedly discovered the truth about Akira's fiance.
Hearing Shion and Akira's conversation, Sayo, who had been keeping her head down, could not help but look at Akira again, her eyes full of sympathy.
She had thought she was already miserable enough, but it turned out Akira was even more miserable.
At least she was giving herself to the master for her parents. Akira had been deceived so badly by a fiance she had not even married. Even though Akira looked gentle and smart, who would have thought.....
The only one who had not been questioned was Kushida Kikyo, whose face was dark.
Did no one care about her at all? She was also about to be a fellow servant.
Compared to Sayo, who came from a wealthy family and was paying her parents' debt, or Akira, whose parents were both teachers and who was paying off her scammer fiance's debt, she was definitely the one getting the short end of the stick.
Because she did not need to pay off her parents' debt, nor was she stupid enough to get into a relationship and be scammed by some trash man. She was just being controlled by Shion through her dark past.
The only good thing was that Shion, who looked pure and sweet but was actually very scheming, did not plan to deduct their pay. She would give her many times the pay she could get from working part time outside.
Even though she really did not want to be some kind of personal maid, who knew how Shion had found out her dark past.
Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! just do not let her get favored in front of this master. When the time came, she would let Shion know what cruelty really meant.
"Good afternoon, Master. I am your personal maid Kushida Kikyo. Would you like to eat lunch first or have dessert first?"
While thinking about how to get back at Shion in the future, Kushida Kikyo suddenly noticed an extra figure beside Shion. She immediately put on a bright and energetic cute smile, stepped forward without waiting for Sayo and Akira, deeply bowed, and held Hachiman's hands to press them against her soft chest.
———
"Kushida Kikyo?"
Hachiman teleported to Shion's side. Seeing that Kaede and the others were not there, he was just about to ask Shion when he noticed a cute and full figured energetic girl holding his hands.
Because the other party was too weak and was desperately releasing an aura of submission toward him, his Ultra Instinct passive did not react at all.
Although the current situation was not much different from triggering the Ultra Instinct counterattack passive, at most it was that the other party was taking the initiative, and he was not using that much force to attack the other party's vital heart.
"Master, these are the new personal maids I recruited for you. They are Kushida Kikyo, Sayo, and Akira. Even though they have not finished their maid training, they will still do their utmost to satisfy any of your needs."
Shion glanced at Kushida Kikyo, who was the first to flatter Hachiman and let him feel her full curves, and smiled slightly as if she had not seen anything. She gave a small bow and introduced the three maids to Hachiman.
"Sayo and Akira are not students, so it is not convenient for them to enter and leave the school. If you need them, Master, I will let them come to the school to serve you."
After being a head maid for so many years, even if her eye for people was not one hundred percent accurate, at least most people could not escape her gaze.
Although Kushida Kikyo's acting was good, and at first glance it was easy to be fooled by her gentle, kind, and sunny appearance.
But she had Kushida Kikyo's dark history in her hands. How could she possibly be fooled.
Back in middle school, because Kushida Kikyo was "gentle," everyone treated her as a good friend and confided their secrets to her. Too many secrets piling up in her heart put her under unbearable pressure, and to vent that pressure, she anonymously complained about her friends online.
At first this was not a big problem. There were many anonymous things online, and many people treated them like stories. But as Kushida Kikyo complained about more and more people and incidents, her classmates accidentally discovered that the anonymous account was talking about them, and they went to confront Kushida Kikyo.
Kushida Kikyo went from being everyone's friend to everyone's enemy in an instant. However, she did not calmly accept being isolated. Instead she directly exposed all of her classmates' secrets, plunging the entire class into internal chaos so they had no time to isolate her.
Originally Kushida Kikyo had been specially recruited to the Advanced Nurturing High School with her tuition and living expenses fully covered. Now that the school had been dissolved and she was sent to Sobu High, her parents would not provide her with living expenses.
Even though Sobu High provided housing and even some living allowance, Kushida Kikyo still had to work part time to survive.
Shion did not consider herself a good person. She did not care about Kushida Kikyo's past or her current situation. The real reason she recruited Kushida Kikyo was because she valued Kushida Kikyo's ability.
Now that so many demi human and human forces wanted to get into Sobu High, Sobu High would definitely have to expand in the future. It could not let a public high school turn into a school full of the children of powerful factions.
