Charlotte has a sharp intake of breath, it’s essentially an affirmative reaction.

Allen speaks to Myaha while sighing. He could brainwash Myaha to force her to ignore Charlotte’s presence, but he doesn’t want to go that far if there’s an easier option.

“Myaha, there’s a reason for this…” Allen

“It’s fine, Mr. Demon Lord.” Myaha reassures as she smiles and smacks her chest.

“The satyr shipping company puts the customer first. I won’t worry about who the customer takes as a maid.” Myaha

“Thank you…” Charlotte

“What the hell do you mean?” Allen

Myaha deliberately bends her neck, and Charlotte bows back.

“Oh, thank you very much…” Charlotte

“Nyaa, that’s fine. The Neils Kingdom is outside of our company’s territory.” Myaha

“So, what would happen if it was in your territory?” Allen

“Hmm, I’m not sure. How are you doing?” Myaha answers with a laugh.

Allen was temporarily relieved, until he remembered something…

“Hey, Myaha. Your company is in the mail-order business?” Allen

“Yes, most of the business is daily necessities, but we do special requests. You can buy just about anything, for a reasonable fee. Here’s the pamphlet.” Myaha

“As long as it’s a reliable service. What do you have…” Allen

Allen flips through the pamphlet he got from Myaha, he browses through ingredients, daily necessities, and clothes.

“That’s good. Here you go, Charlotte” Allen

“Yes?” Charlotte

Allen hands the pamphlet over to Charlotte, she seems surprised.

“I tried to purchase the essentials a few days ago, but I doubt I was able to get everything you needed. Make a list of anything I’ve missed and we can order it.” Allen

“Oh, yes. I understand.” Charlotte nods as she flips through the pamphlet with great interest.

Charlotte’s eyes brighten up and she seems more excited. Has she ever been allowed to shop like this before? She hugs the pamphlet carefully and smiles.

“Then, please deduct it from my salary.” Charlotte

“Don’t worry, this is a benefit of your employment.” Allen

“Well? I’m sorry for the inconvenience… You even got a cake for me yesterday…” Charlotte says while bowing.

Allen continues on…

“You can buy whatever you want. If you act reluctant, I’ll buy all the products in the pamphlet. Choose wisely.” Allen

“Why are you always so extreme?” Charlotte screams with a blue face.

From yesterday’s cake incident, Charlotte knows that Allen could and would do that. That’s exactly what he’s thinking. Myaha can’t help but laugh at their exchange.

“Nyaha, the maid looks to have a hard life. If you can’t stand the violence of the Demon Lord, you’ll need to speak up.” Myaha

“No, no. I’m indebted to you. You don’t need to go that far…” Charlotte

“Well, Myaha would have this attitude. I wouldn’t stop with the deadly cat punches.” Myaha claims while doing a bit of shadow boxing.

Myaha has good punches with correct posture.

“That’s fine, anger should be directed to the source.” Myaha

“That’s a nice way to say it, wait a minute!” Allen

Suddenly, Allen has an idea, and claps his hands together.

“That’s it!” Allen

“Nyaa?” Myaha

“What?” Charlotte

Allen thinks he has figured out the next step for Charlotte.
