From Maid to Mother

MM: The「Royal Maid」is Dispatched To The Magician’s House – Part 6

「Hmm, let’s see. If I’m only making a nightgown for the time being, it’ll be done in
thirty minutes」
「That’s quick!」
「That’s because I’ll be using a simple design」
To create a somewhat wearable sleeveless tunic, I chose two pieces of cloth and
made the neckline and armholes. Afterwhich, all I needed to do was sew the front
and back together. Fetching the sewing scissors amongst the sewing tools that I

always carried with me, I cut the cloth after making sure I had the appropriate
measurements. Then after sewing for a short time … Look, it’s done!
「Even so, that’s quick」
「It’s simple. Nevertheless, I wanted Jill to have a change of clothes after it’s
bath」
「Mm」
It’s somewhat baffling to have Leonardsama
meekly agreeing to my words.
… I’ve thought about this earlier but is it alright for him to consent to most all my
views and demands?
「Erm, Leonardsama,
if there’s anything else you need me to do, you can just tell
me, okay?」
「Mm」
Leonardsama
nodded his head in agreement again. … No, I mean, I know you’re a
tonguetied
person but if you don’t tell me, I don’t understand what that means.
「You’ve done everything」

「Eh?」
As I was troubled by how to deal with it, Leonardsama
added the words piece by
piece.
「All I’ve requested」
… It’s like a riddle. Basically, I’ve already done everything that Leonardsama
has
wished for? Eh, how’s that possible?
「Loving her, caring for her and providing her with what she needs. You’ve done
enough」
「Ummmm …」
A–As expected, that was difficult to comprehend.
Even so, Leonardsama
seems satisfied and it’ll be harder to listen to him beyond
this. Hmm, I wonder if that’s really enough?
「The bath is over here」

「Ah! Yes …」
While I was pondering over that, Leonardsama
had left the room. In a panic, me
and Jill chased after him together, and as soon as we reached the bathroom, he
handed something over with a plop.
「Towel」
「Oh, thank you …」
It was so perfectly done that I felt like running away. Furthermore, no matter how I
looked at this towel, it was brand new.
「If there’s anything you don’t know, ask Sid. He does the house chores」
「Sidsan?
」
Sidsan’s
amazing! Can he actually do all the house chores? Oh, but Leonardsama
can cook too?
As I admired them, Leonardsama
held his hand into the bathtub.
「Leonardsama?
」

「Hot water」
In the next moment, water gathered in the bath from out of nowhere, making a
boiling sound before transforming into hot water. Excuse me, uh. Isn’t using magic
breaking the rules? The hardships that an ordinary person has to go through to
heated water by burning firewood with all their might … Well, I’ll give my thanks as
Jill was able to have a bath immediately because of it.
「Thank you, Leonardsama
」
「Mm」
I thought the vaguely satisfied Leonardsama
looked somewhat cute. Though it’s
imprudent to an employer so I’m repenting.
After she had been washed and her hair tidied up, Jill transformed into an
extremely adorable girl.
She had a slightly unusual strawberry blonde hair that was up to her back and
large, wideopen
blue eyes. Though she had lacked the softness that was a child’s
characteristic from weight loss, she was going to be a promising beauty in the
future.
By the way, I found out Jill was a girl when she took off her robe earlier. If she had
been a boy, I would have sewn a pair of pants.

「Ah, hey! Your hair’s still wet」
I called Jill to stop as she immediately started running around naked after wiping
her body.
「Ye~~ss!」
It seems she had gotten used to me as she showed me a happy smile. After
thoroughly drying her hair, I dressed her in the nightgown I’d made.
「Does it feel comfortable?」
「Yep!」
Carrying Jill who was wearing a huge grin, we returned to the living room where
Leonardsama
was in the midst of reading and Sidsan
was present.
「You’re back. Welcome home, Sidsan.
Um…」
「Oh, I’m home. Both of you must feel exhausted so I’ll make dinner tonight」
「Ermm…」

Just as I looked at him, Sidsan
had finished putting on an apron. I–It was an
exceptionally, lovely pink color … It’s no use, I just want to laugh. The cat
embroidery on his chest is so fancy that I can’t hold it in any longer.
「U–um, I’m the maid so I’ll make it. As you had to do the errands for me, I’m really
sorry for troubling you」
Yes, yes. I mustn’t forget. Although the devastating impact of the apron caused
me to look the other way, housekeeping was still my duty.
「Oh~~ such dedication. Yosh, then I shall especially lend a hand and assist you」
Sidsan
smiled broadly as he offered his assistance however, it was likely that he
had some favor to ask besides cooking.
「Then, can you look after Jill while you dry her hair?」
「Eh?」
「She’ll probably catch a cold if her hair’s halfdried
and if Jill comes near me while
I’m using a knife, it’ll be dangerous」

As I was in the middle of requesting Sidsan,
I heard Jill’s merry voice. Turning
around, I saw Jill sitting on top of Leonardsama’s
lap with her hair lightly spreading
out in the air.
「It’s wa–rm!」
「Whoa, whoa! Aren’t you enveloping her hair with warm air? That’s surprisingly
gentle of you, Master」
「Quick dry」
Leonardsama
responded to Sidsan’s
astonished voice with a oneliner.
It was a
charming scene but I couldn’t help remembering my past life.
Hmm, a warm air that dries hair, a hair dryer? Unconsciously I was taken aback but
I need to start cooking right away. Deciding as such, I moved towards the kitchen.
Although in saying that, the menu that I was going to cook up today was really
easy. I’ll be making potaufeu
– there’ll be plenty of vegetables to satisfy her
tummy and it’s a dish that’s easy on the stomach.
If it was Japan, I’ll have made congee with some added condiments or udon but
there’s neither rice nor udon in this world. Most of all, there wasn’t any soy sauce or
miso either. Well, I’ve gotten used to it so it’s fine.

Since Sidsan
bought a whole plump chicken, I’ll use the thigh meat for cooking.
First, I’ll cut it to a suitable portion, then I’ll rub it with some salt to get rid of the
smell and leave it aside to sit.
Meanwhile, I’ll cut the carrots and onions into large chunks … I wonder what else I
should make?
「Woah, you’re fast at your job, ojouchan!
」
「Really?」
Before I had realized, Sidsan
has been standing next to me, watching me work.
As there was a bit of beef in the bundle that Sidsan
had bought, I turned all of it
into mince meat. After that, I finely chopped the onions, skinned and thinly sliced
some potatoes before I began boiling it.
「Sidsan,
is there any food that you dislike?」
「Ah~ Well it’s not like I need to eat in the first place but if you’re asking for my
preference, I love sweets」
Ohh, so it’s not necessary for familiars to eat? They’re animals so I thought they
had to eat … Well, whatever.

While I salt and peppered the minced beef and thinly sliced onions for the stirfry,
the potato were soft enough for a fork to pierce through. Moving them from the
sieve to a bowl, I added salt, pepper, butter and a bit of milk and properly smash
them together. In a large gratin dish, I added the stirfried
mix to the bottom and
layered the top completely with mashed potatoes, putting it aside until it was ready.
Meanwhile, I rinsed off the moisture that came out of chicken meat and began
boiling it over low heat in another pot. Scoop the scum that appears then add the
onions and carrots. Afterwards, continuously skim the scum on the broth as the potaufeu
boils until it’s ready to be served.
As it’s boiling, there’s still one more bit of work. On top of the mashed potatoes
earlier, I sprinkled shaved cheese all over. I intend to place this in the oven and
bake it till it turns brown and welldone,
making something similar to shepherd’s pie.
If I add some bread later, this should be enough.
「… Seriously, you’re pretty skilled. It looks delicious」
Sidsan
spoke to me earnestly as I was taking a breather after I had finished
preparing the pie.
「Is that so? I wonder if it’s because I’m accustomed to it」

Indeed, whether it was in my present or past life, I had plenty of opportunities to
cook. Because my mother in this world was running a small restaurant, I’ve been
standing in the kitchen assisting her since I was seven.
Now, it’s almost time to put the pie into the oven.
Ah~ the smell of baked cheese and the sound of the potaufeu
as it simmers.
Cooking really calms me down~ … And for helping me wash up nonchalantly, thank
you Sidsan.
I’m sorry for leaving you to clean up my mess for me.
「Yosh, it’s ready!」
「Oh~ it looks delicious!! 」
「I also made a portion for Sidsan,
if it’s alright, please eat it」
After I dished out the plates, Sidsan
carried them out one by one. I feel somewhat
apologetic but I wonder if it’s alright of me to make use of my employer’s familiar.
