My Fusion System: Fusing a Thousand Chickens at the Start

Chapter 46: The Second Round of Recruitment

Ten minutes later, Wendy returned to her room—her face was red.

She had been in a hurry to escape, so she did not have time to change her bathrobe. Wendy leaned against the bedroom door and covered her chest with her hands—her heart was pounding.

The scene still echoed in her mind. Wendy had wanted to scrub Watson’s back because that was what her brother, Liszt, had told her to do. As a nobleman’s maid, she had a responsibility to serve her master—she would have to cook for him, help him with his bath, and even warm his bed.

Wendy was still young, so no one would expect her to warm her master’s bed, but she could still help with the bath. However, she did not expect it would be that awkward.

“Young Master has a huge penis! No, no, Young Master’s body is really strong. No!”

Wendy suppressed the wild thoughts in her mind and took a deep breath. Suddenly, she was a little worried.

It was Watson’s kindness that let her live in such a huge castle. Liszt even proposed to move their parents to the same place, and Watson had agreed.

Wendy respected her young master. What if he wanted to terminate her job because he was not satisfied with that matter?

“Young Master is a good person; he won’t punish me that easily, right? If he really needs to do something about it, then he can deduct my salary!”

She was Watson’s only maid, so her salary was higher than her brother’s—about 50 gold coins a month.

“But I left without doing anything. Would Young Master really not blame me?”

Wendy still worried about her gains and losses when someone knocked on the door. She opened it and saw Liszt.

When he noticed that she was in a clean white bathrobe, he frowned and said with a straight face, “Why are you dressed like this? Did you take a bath? This is Blackmoon Castle. Don’t be act too casually and treat this as your home.”

Liszt was one of the first batches of guards that Watson had recruited. Other than Allen, who had the highest talent, he had been eating three Pentacolor Fragrant Chicken eggs every day. His strength had increased by more than a thousand catties, and he was at the peak of bronze tier warriors. He was only a step away from silver tier, so Watson appointed him as the vice-captain of the guards.

Of course, Liszt did not dare to let Watson down, so when Wendy went to the castle, he had warned his sister not to cause any trouble and to serve the family dutifully, especially when it was Watson.

So, when he saw his sister in the corridor in a loose bathrobe, his mind thought about the situation if some burly guards had found her. However, he did not want to think of the implication. He already saw Wendy as his young master’s woman.

“You are right, Brother. I know I’m wrong.”

Wendy’s face reddened when her brother reprimanded her. She did not dare to refute him. Instead, she rolled her wet jade-green hair with her fingers.

How would she explain it?

Perhaps she had bumped into the young master while he was taking a bath and saw something she could not describe? If that were the case, Liszt would be even angrier.

“Forget it; it’s not a big deal. But, you should be more careful next time!” Liszt said as he sat on the soft sofa in the room. He picked up a cup of unfinished tea on the table, took a sip, and looked around the room.

It was quite a good room, much better than hundreds of rooms in the dark castle. It had two smaller rooms and a living room. Each room had a soft bed with a curtain on the side. There was a set of solid wood tables and chairs in the living room, two sofas, and a fireplace in the right wall, and the floor was covered with a red carpet. Some charcoal had been added to the fireplace as it was already autumn.

Liszt nodded in approval. He was the vice-captain, and he did not even get such treatment. At least Wendy had a single room, but he had to live with his parents.

“Wendy, it is good that you can live in such a nice place and eat delicious food every day. However, you must not slack off and let Young Master Watson think that you are a lazy person! In addition to cleaning the floor and the room daily, you also have to trim the trees outside, and…” Liszt mentioned all the work that he could think of.

At that moment, he was the only one who could bring his family members to Blackmoon Castle. The other guards were extremely envious of the special treatment he enjoyed, and they were all secretly troubled. So why did they not think of sending their daughters or sisters there?

Many of the guards had taken a few days off to go home and bring their female family members there. Liszt knew what was in their mind. As the first batch of maids to live in the castle, Wendy was blessed with exceptional conditions, and she might even become the head housemaid in the future.

Liszt was the vice-captain of the guards, and Wendy was the head housemaid—they would be able to achieve great success.

When it was time for the patrol, Liszt gave Wendy some serious advice before he turned around and left.

On the one hand, he was there to teach Wendy; on the other hand, it had already been a month. He had been busy with training every day, and he was always a little worried when he saw Wendy occasionally.

After Liszt left, Wendy sat back on the sofa. She dragged her hands across her fair cheeks and looked at the flames in the stove across from her.

“Brother is right. I can get 50 gold coins every month. This is something that our parents can’t even earn in ten years. I want to do more for Young Master. At least, I want to be worthy of my salary!”

Wendy made up her mind as she clenched her fists. If she were to encounter the young master while he was in the bath, then she would not run away. Instead, she would take one with him. Of course, it would be better if she did not need to do that, but at least she could take a bath.

..

Three days passed by in the blink of an eye.

Zeke and Zenoah stayed for two days after their return. They asked Watson to fuse 100 sets of weapons and armors that they had brought back into bronze equipment in sets. Then, they fused all the medicinal herbs into high-quality medicine.

A Black-iron armor was only worth a few dozen silver coins, but the price would increase tenfold after it became bronze. Watson managed to fuse more than 100 sets of bronze equipment and weapons and about 100 pieces of bronze jewelry in two days. There were also thousands of herbs that ranged from bronze to gold tier.

Those items were worth at least 100,000 gold coins. Then, Zeke and Zenoah went to Montevideo with those bounties.

With these bountiful gains, his third and fourth brothers headed to Monte Town.

Watson noticed that his two brothers had gotten used to their roles as merchants, but that did not stop them from running around. Before they left, they even said that they would bring a girlfriend home. Naturally, they would not want Watson to overtake them on that front.

Watson smiled when he heard that.

“Good morning, Young Master Watson.”

Wendy stood in front of him as she trimmed a crooked tree in the yard.

“Good morning,” Watson lifted his hand in response.

Ever since Wendy caught him while he was taking a bath a few days ago, he did not dare to go to the bathroom. He was also embarrassed whenever he saw Wendy. On the contrary, Wendy, who had always been very shy, took the initiative to serve him tea during dinner. Then, after that, she would wipe his mouth with a handkerchief. When it was bedtime, she would accompany him in the bedroom and talk to him until he fell asleep. She did not chase him away.

Her actions made Scarlet extremely jealous. Every time they ate, Watson had to endure her sister’s glare at him. Even the rest of the family members had strange expressions on their faces.

“Young Master, would you like a bath after your morning exercise? I can boil the water now.” After she said that, Wendy was prepared to run back to the castle with the scissors in her hand, but Watson stopped her. “Wait! No need! I don’t want to take a bath because I have more important things to do later.”

When Watson recruited his guards, he mentioned that Blackmoon Castle would recruit more people next month. That day was their second round of recruitment. He believed that many potential guards were waiting patiently outside the castle, and Watson looked forward to meeting them.
