It was simple to see why you were in the Scarlet Devil Mansion, Remilia, your current Mistress, simply invited you to reside inside the mansion, but you couldn't really say no, after all, it was a big, nice mansion, yet, you have no idea why you accepted, even so, there you were, minding your own business, as you thought of why you accepted in the first place. But, it has been, like, more or less than eight months since she invited you, thanking her and starting to live in the mansion together with the rest of the residents, and interacting with them.
Currently, it was morning, you were calmly walking through the hallways of the mansion, after Remilia told you to not worry about anything for now, also witnessing and noticing the lack of windows due to your Mistress being a vampire, and how spacious it was, it wasn't weird, after all, the Chief Maid could also manipulate space. Nothing out of the ordinary lately. You were caught in your thoughts by a figure you didn't even notice, seemingly to appear out of nowhere, the person you thought about a few seconds ago, Sakuya Izayoi, the Chief Maid. You know her, and she knows you. It was weird. There's nothing she could ever want, there's nowhere to go, it's only a hallway.
“… Stop right there.”
Sakuya said in a firm, professional, yet neutral tone of voice while she was right in front of you, a few paces away from you, blocking your path through the hallway completely, making it look like it was more important than it should be, and by her tone, it better be. She stared directly into your eyes.
