"Lord Matthew, this is my newly taken photo album, please accept it!"
"Ding"~
Notification: Congratulations, you have obtained 《Non-standard Demon Race Spy Loli Miya's Photo Selection》!
Just kidding.
This photo album has no name on it at all, but it does have a label.
"C28?"
Matthew looked at Miya, whose little face was flushed red and who didn't dare to look up, his focus on the area just above her waist.
"There's a C?"
Miya fled in a panic, returning to the kitchen to continue tidying up.
Yesterday she had returned from the Water Blue World, and having learned certain truths, she was extremely sad.
Whether Miya would truly cut off contact with the Demon Race in the future was for now uncertain, but in the short term she had no wish to go back at all.
Compared to the Demon Realm, where every day was exhausting to live through, life in the Goddess World was quite relaxing.
She hadn't forgotten that she was of the Demon Race, but as long as she had Lord Matthew's protection, even if she was a Demon King, she could still live an ordinary life in the Goddess World.
So she prepared a photo album as a token of allegiance, taken in the same style as War Goddess Ares's set.
That woman was a goddess, while she was merely the Demon Race's little spy, so C28 was noticeably thicker than G27, and the Holy Light level was also one, two, three, four, five, six degrees higher than the latter.
Besides that, Miya transformed into a black-and-white little maid and tidied up every area outside the Male God's Cabin's main flow, top to bottom, left to right, front to back.
Due to the awkwardness of her race, she had lived alone since she was very young, and her cooking skills were good; having read a few cookbooks from the Human Realm in the study room, she instantly transformed into a many-starred little cook.
"Dangdangdangdang"!
"Lord Matthew, this is the sweet and sour fish, Dongpo pork, shrimp with green vegetables, and tomato and egg that I made."
"Mm-hmm, there's also fish bone soup here, it's my first time making it, please don't be angry if it doesn't taste good."
A book in the study room also recorded: if you want to capture a man's heart, you must first capture his stomach.
Lord Matthew was a Male God, but he still hadn't escaped the category of Man, and since the dishes Miya cooked suited his taste, the odds of him letting her stay would surely rise dramatically.
Matthew, holding a bowl of rice, asked, "How did you know I like Eastern Cuisine?"
Miya replied, "Because all the recipes recorded similar dishes."
Before long, the four dishes and one soup were completely finished, without a single drop left.
A Max-Level Boss's eating speed was just as formidable as their combat power.
After crossing over, Matthew rarely felt hungry, and even going without eating for years wouldn't affect him much.
But leaving a table of good dishes untouched wasn't in his nature; cola with ice was even more delicious, and though he usually couldn't be bothered to prepare it himself, today when he drank one cup a second automatically appeared, and after finishing the second, a third automatically appeared, until in the end Matthew drank at least 5 liters.
"If I started a mukbang stream in the God Realm, it would probably blow up."
Beside him, Miya still held the cola bottle, ready to refill his cup at any moment.
"Lord Matthew, would you like another cup?"
Matthew looked slightly awkward and said, "No need. Um, all the food on the table has been eaten by me, what will you eat?"
Little Miya shook her head and said, "I've already eaten."
Look at that! Take a look!
This was exactly what a proper maid should do; if Miya weren't of the Demon Race, Matthew would surely have thought she was another dose of spiritual poison sent by Old Lady Hera to corrupt him.
"Ahem."
Matthew cleared his throat and said, "Then you can stay. As for the work at the ramen shop, keep doing it if you're willing; if you're not willing, I'll talk to Kevin for you. At home, you'll sleep in the study room, and as long as you cook now and then and don't wander off carelessly, that's fine. Aside from that, I have no other requirements of you for now."
"Thank you, Lord Matthew!"
Maiden Miya bowed deeply.
The truth was out!
There really was a C, a small C was still a C after all.
This black-and-white maid outfit of hers belonged to the same style as her previous gothic dress, with quite a low neckline, and from this angle, ahem.
Matthew said, "Alright, go play, I'm going out for a walk."
"Okay, Lord Matthew!"
Probably, Matthew thought of Miya as a little sister who could cook.
As long as she took care of everything in the kitchen, the rest of her time was hers to play, wasn't it?
Miya didn't think so.
Whether she really was a C or not, the truth would be revealed the moment one opened photo album No. 28.
That was the basics, but not the main point.
The main point was, for a Strong Expert like Lord Matthew, what kind of maid couldn't he find?
So to keep her position, she had to give her best at all times.
Lord Matthew said he was going out for a walk, most likely to the ramen shop.
The ramen shop was Lord Matthew's business, so she couldn't quit her job as a waiter there.
Balancing her time between the roles of waiter and maid wasn't easy; the best solution was to advance the first role, skipping past being a lowly worker to become a manager, helping 【God Matthew Ramen Shop】 make money.
First, if the ramen shop made money, Lord Matthew would be happy.
Second, if she helped the ramen shop make money and took on management as a part-time role, Uncle Kevin, who was greedy for money and women and not too sharp, would surely agree.
.....
On the streets of the Goddess Residential Area, Matthew was indeed walking toward the Male God Ramen Shop, running into a few goddesses along the way, exchanging greetings.
God Matthew had very little fame among the gods, but every year, he completed his assigned tasks 100% without fail.
Moreover, since the Authority of Kindness he held was deeply beloved by women, goddesses below S-rank generally gave him face.
"I've already given the Dragon Slaying Holy Sword to Ares, but I estimate she still can't beat Demon King Hages."
Matthew stretched lazily.
"Crack"~
A floor tile was cracked under his foot.
"Lord Matthew!" a newly promoted goddess hurried over.
Newly promoted goddesses had pitifully few combat missions; aside from those who had their own businesses to run, they usually just managed public order, helped God Realm Residents solve troubles, and so on.
"Sorry, I didn't notice." Matthew scratched his fair-skinned cheek.
"Fine of 1 Gold Coin!" the young goddess in the teal robe said, feigning anger, before instantly breaking character.
"Hehehe, just kidding, Lord Matthew, go on and take care of your business, I'll fix this stone tile for you."
After saying this, the young goddess crouched down while laughing, brushed her hand over the damaged stone tile, and summoned spring water to soften the tile before reshaping it.
"And you are?"
"My name is Vivian, I just officially became a goddess last year, a Spring Goddess. My mother is also a Spring Goddess, so ever since I was little I've dreamed of inheriting her title, and then, just like Her Highness the Goddess of Radiance back then, starting from zero, until becoming the strongest!"
Spring Goddess Vivian stuck out her little pink tongue, "That's what I think, though of course I also know that a goddess with divine power as weak as mine might not even be able to advance to S-rank in ten thousand years, let alone SS-rank."
"By the way, Lord Matthew, how did you come to hold the Authority of Kindness?"
For newly promoted goddesses, that is, third-tier gods, C-rank gods, there were two methods total for advancing to second-tier B-rank.
The first was leveling up through combat, leading a Hero to defeat a Demon King and save the people of a Different World.
Since Demon Kings in different worlds were at least B-rank, taking the combat route to level up was very difficult and also very dangerous.
The second method was leveling up through the recognition of a corresponding authority.
