Hearing this, Sakayanagi Arisu was still in a state of disbelief, immersed in her defeat, her face full of confusion.
When Shikime Natsu challenged her, Sakayanagi Arisu knew that Shikime Natsu probably had a certain understanding of chess, and his skill level should be quite excellent.
But... Sakayanagi Arisu never expected that Shikime Natsu's chess skills could completely crush her. This was her proud ability, and she never thought it would be defeated so easily.
Sakayanagi Arisu found it quite difficult to accept at this moment.
However, under Shikime Natsu's detestable gaze, Sakayanagi Arisu could only obediently transfer one hundred thousand points to Shikime Natsu. She hadn't even had these one hundred thousand points for a full day.
Looking at the balance displayed on her phone, Sakayanagi Arisu suddenly felt a sense of self-pity.
Even if she challenged Shikime Natsu to chess again, she would definitely lose.
The gap between their strengths was like a chasm, impossible to cross.
"I never thought Sakayanagi would enjoy being a maid so much. From now on, April will be called Maid Service Month." Shikime Natsu spoke to himself, ignoring the still dazed Sakayanagi Arisu.
For some reason, perhaps because she had grown accustomed to Shikime Natsu's humiliation, Sakayanagi Arisu had become somewhat used to this kind of humiliation and didn't mind it.
"Alright, time to clean up the chessboard, Miss Maid." Shikime Natsu stood up and stretched a little, looking tired. In reality, the game with Sakayanagi Arisu hadn't even lasted ten minutes, and most of that time was spent with Sakayanagi Arisu thinking, while Shikime Natsu almost instantly made his moves.
Kamuro Masumi looked at Shikime Natsu with a strange expression. This guy not only had such formidable talent in tennis, but he was also so good at chess?
It felt like the two of them were from completely different dimensions.
"A bet is a bet, but... I haven't completely lost. I'm not as good as you at chess, but... in other areas, I might not be inferior." Sakayanagi Arisu quickly composed herself and looked directly at Shikime Natsu with her purple eyes, as if displaying her determination.
"Alright, alright, Miss Maid, don't waste time. Hurry up and massage my shoulders." Shikime Natsu seemed completely unconcerned by Sakayanagi Arisu's determination.
After realizing her determination was ignored, Sakayanagi Arisu didn't get angry. Instead, she simply cleaned up the chessboard and walked behind Shikime Natsu to massage his shoulders. Hmm... the strength was still the same, quite weak, but better than nothing. Of course, what Shikime Natsu most wanted to experience was the feeling of a victor.
Watching their interaction, Kamuro Masumi found it a bit strange. Yesterday, Sakayanagi Arisu still had a lot of resistance towards Shikime Natsu, but now it seemed gone. How should she describe this feeling... fallen?
"Masumi, do you want to try it?" Shikime Natsu casually spoke to Kamuro Masumi at the side. Sakayanagi Arisu's strength wasn't enough for him, but for Kamuro Masumi, it might be surprisingly suitable.
Of course, that was just a possibility.
"No need." Kamuro Masumi directly refused. The thought of Sakayanagi Arisu massaging her shoulders gave her goosebumps; she couldn't accept that feeling at all.
"Hmm... if Shikime Natsu were willing to massage her shoulders, she might agree." Kamuro Masumi quickly threw this strange thought out of her mind. Spending too much time with Shikime Natsu made her thoughts become strange too.
It's all his fault!
The girl looked at Shikime Natsu with a rather resentful gaze. Her head was a mess; it had to be Shikime Natsu's fault.
"Is that so? That's really a shame." Shikime Natsu didn't force Kamuro Masumi. It seemed Kamuro Masumi was not blessed to enjoy such things. Such a smug brat needed to be properly taught a lesson.
"Alright, Sakayanagi, go heat up a cup of milk for me from the fridge. Masumi, do you want some?" After a few minutes, Shikime Natsu felt the pressure on his shoulders lessen, so he very naturally instructed Sakayanagi Arisu to heat up some milk for him.
"Yes." Hmm, although she didn't want Sakayanagi Arisu to massage her shoulders, Kamuro Masumi still wanted the hot milk.
Listening to their conversation, Sakayanagi Arisu's expression became a little strange. She felt as if she had truly become a maid.
"Shiki..." Shikime Natsu interrupted Sakayanagi Arisu directly upon hearing this.
"You need to maintain your address, a maid shouldn't forget the most basic things." No, calling him a few times was enough, did she really have to keep calling him that?
Sakayanagi Arisu's face was quite unpleasant, and a hint of almost imperceptible grievance appeared in her purple eyes.
She considered herself a genius, but here with Shikime Natsu, she was repeatedly humiliated and even had to call this detestable guy 'Master.' It was an utter disgrace!
The thought of her maid service, which was supposed to end in a few days, being extended to almost the entire month of April made Sakayanagi Arisu want to die.
What kind of mindset did she have when she made such a promise with Shikime Natsu?
"Yes, Master." Sakayanagi Arisu gritted out these words, then took out milk from the fridge to heat it.
Practice makes perfect. Sakayanagi Arisu placed the two cups of milk on the table. She didn't prepare a cup for herself; the milk was worth three thousand points.
This guy always liked to trick her, so Sakayanagi Arisu had to be careful.
Looking at Sakayanagi Arisu's cautious demeanor, Shikime Natsu couldn't help but sigh with emotion. This guy really had grown, though not by much.
Shikime Natsu smiled at Sakayanagi Arisu.
"I don't like it." This guy was definitely doing it on purpose. Sakayanagi Arisu was very unhappy. She would endure this month, and after just one month, she would definitely take fierce revenge on this guy.
All the humiliation she had suffered, Shikime Natsu would repay a hundredfold!
"Is that so? That's really a shame." Shikime Natsu shook his head slightly, as if lamenting that Sakayanagi Arisu didn't appreciate it at all.
"This is the most expensive milk in the convenience store." Is it more expensive than three thousand points a cup?
Sakayanagi Arisu no longer wanted to complain.
By the way... why did Shikime Natsu's room have so many cups? Sakayanagi Arisu suddenly noticed that there seemed to be quite a few cups for drinking water in Shikime Natsu's room.
What was he planning to do? Was it to make it convenient for more girls to drink water when they came here?
The thought seemed a bit absurd.
But... if it were Shikime Natsu, Sakayanagi Arisu felt it wasn't so absurd anymore.
However, the way this guy treated Kamuro Masumi, Yamamura Miki, and herself was too different, wasn't it?
Sakayanagi Arisu was quite displeased.
When she first met Shikime Natsu, Sakayanagi Arisu thought he was a typical kind person, but she never expected this guy to be so malicious!
Especially his mouth, it was like it was poisoned, always saying things that made her angry.
"Alright, after you clean up, you can go back. Oh, and I'm always open to your chess challenges. Of course, you need to prepare enough points." "You're still holding onto the humiliation, aren't you?!" Kamuro Masumi couldn't help but look at Sakayanagi Arisu with a hint of pity.
