Reincarnated as the Villainess's attendant

Zoemi was standing n fornt of th door to Veo and Teo's room.

He expected the tray with empty dishes to be waiting for him outside to pick up and return to the kitchen, but there was nothing there.

Whether it was because the girls simply didn't finish eating, they left the tray inside their room, or maybe – in the best option – they returned the tray themselves and will be returning to their duties, it still had to be confirmed.

"Hello again, Veo, Teo, you're in there?"

Therefore the black-haired boy went and knocked on the door, waiting for an answer.

"Sir Zoemi?!"

Which came almost instantly in form of a shocked gasp of most likely Teo.

"Calm down, and don't wave your arms around while you're holding food."

Yes, the first voice must have belonged to Teo since the next one was most definitely Veo's.

"Ah, sorry, I didn't want to interrupt your meal – I just wanted to check up on how you feel – I'll return during the next break!"

The black-haired boy listened to a piece of advice that young Patishi gave him in the morning and didn't push the girls even though he wanted them to go back to helping the first prince so that the blond heroine would have no chance of approaching him.

But before he could as much as turn around...

"Sir Zoemi! Come with me!"

"WHOA...!"

The door opened and Teo, wearing only an oversized shirt grabbed his arm and pulled him inside, shutting the door.

"Teo! What do you think you're doing?!

Veo gasped, putting down a fork and staring in disbelief at her younger sister who pulled the black-haired boy into their room.

"Oh shut it! You got headpats and was praised by sir Zoemi yesterday while I was left with nothing!"

But instead of showing remorse and releasing the scarred attendant, the short brown-haired girl scoffed at her older sister and clung to the black-haired boy – this time very mindful to not activate her enchantments so that the boy would not be harmed.

"I'm happy to see you so lively – you didn't look that great yesterday."

"...!"

Zoemi breathed out and smiled, looking down at the short girl, and even though his words referred to health and nothing else, Teo blushed and cowered from embarrassment remembering how slovenly she must have appeared the previous night when Zoemi saw her while talking with Veo.

"Sir Zoemi, that was quite a rude thing to say to a girl."

The older twin pointed out from her seat and continued eating.

"Huh?! I was?! When?!"

zoemi flinched and looked at him in confusion...

"...whoa..."

He also had the first actual look at what the twins did with their room, and it made him gasp.

Basically all of the furniture – the two beds put together, the closet, and two desks – were put up against the wall almost as an afterthought or things meant to be thrown away, while two-thirds of the room itself was taken over by...

...a vegetable garden...

An actual vegetable garden where some of the plants were already ripe and ready to be harvested while others were merely budding, all under the light provided multiple magic stones set in equal intervals through the room so that each plant would get the right level of insolation.

"Do you have permission for having that here? No, in the first place, what is this doing here!?"

Zoemi exclaimed in consternation while waving his hand at the vegetable garden.

"Master said it was okay as long as we will be able to hide it during the room inspection if such a thing will even happen..."

Veo, who was sitting on the bed keeping a plate with food prepared by the black-haired boy on her crossed legs, muttered while looking away and ended up straight up turning away and facing the wall.

"...guh...?!"

"Sir Zoemi...! Please, pay attention to me...! Veo already had he moment!"

Teo – unintentionally – rammed her head into Zoemi's solar plexus, making him gasp in shock, as he was completely unprepared for the attack – and cried out a complaint.

"Teo... I came here only to check up on the two of you, I still got lessons, alright?"

The black-haired boy furrowed his brows in an awkward expression.

"Please...! If you will pamper me I will definitely get better sooner!"

Teo declared rather shamelessly.

So shamelessly in fact that it sounded actually funny, and the scarred boy smiled, shaking his head.

"Fine – but only for a few minutes – I really have classes to return to, I am a student after all. You needy girl."

He chuckled and put his hand on Teo's head and started tousling her hair.

"Sir Zoemi... do... do you dislike needy girls...?"

Encouraged by the success, Teo raised her head just a bit and glanced upwards at the black-haired boy.

"..."

Considering who was the boy's master, it might have been considered a loaded question, so the te scared boy didn't answer straight away.

"I guess I got used o dealing with them."

He said after a moment of consideration.

"Whether I like them or not though, isn't as subject that a lowly attendant like myself should disclose while on duty."

Zoemi added while reaching down to Teo's face and pinching her cheek.

"Which is also something that you should have remembered too since you completed the same kind of training that I did."

He said while playfully pulling on her cheek.

"Sh-shorry..."

The brown-haired girl's face became bright red and she lowered her head once again while apologizing.

"Sir Zoemi... since you said that you are used to dealing with needy girls... can I have a request...?"

But even though she was embarrassed, Teo was also very focused so she recovered almost immediately and asked.

"As long as it will not take longer than..."

The black-haired boy reached to his pocket and pulled out a watch, checking the time...

"...ten... no, let's make it twelve minutes. Since this is supposed to help you recover faster – I'm all ears."

He shrugged his shoulders and agreed.

…

…...

After spending the whole time Zoemi allocated to the task of feeding the girl the breakfast he made and brought for both twins in the morning while constantly patting Teo's hair as she cuddled up to him, the black-haired boy was slightly tired – more so mentally than physically.

"Sir Zoemi..."

The silent until that moment Veo asked.

"Sorry, Veo, but I don't even have time to take the empty dishes back to the kitchen, if you want to be pampered too you need to wait."

The black-haired attendant raised his hand apologetically, stopping the girl from approaching – which she actually didn't even try.

"No, no. wanted to ask about my pri... our master. Is everything alright, is he mad at us...?"

The older twin asked with a concerned expression, making Zeomi breathe out with relief.

"Don't worry – I got that covered – and no, he isn't angry – you know how he is, he thought that your absence was actually his fault and was worried. Focus on resting while you can and everything will be fine. Now I really must go, so bye-bye!"

Zoemi assured her and waved her and Teo farewell, leaving their room before he could be stopped again.
