Crimson Ecstasy
"We're here!"
In the blink of an eye, the academy classroom appeared right before me. As expected of the System! There's nothing to say except that it's incredible. Thanks to her, I no longer have to worry about being late. Everyone around me had said that arriving late to the academy would earn you a scolding, so this was truly a relief. As a maid, I must ensure Master never gets scolded.
I walked with careful, measured steps. These were the classmates I would be studying with, after all, so I always had to mind my appearance as a maid. Even if it was for Master's sake, when others were watching I needed to walk as demurely as possible. If my honor were tarnished, it would mean Master's honor falling as well. Even if it cost me my life, I could never allow that to happen.
"My clothes..."
I had taken such care putting on the maid uniform this morning, yet it had changed back into the school uniform. I must have been working diligently as a maid, but because I'd lost my memories, the maid outfit was so complicated that putting it on took a great deal of effort and time. People say the body remembers, but that seems like complete nonsense. Still, even though my clothes had returned to the school uniform, it didn't matter. Once academy life ended, I would be changed back into the maid uniform anyway. This was yet another charm of the System.
Besides, even with this school uniform, there was still a way.
"Um... do you happen to have a cutter knife or something similar?"
I asked the friend sitting beside me with polite deference. It would be nice if there were some tool I could use to alter the clothes, but there was no chance of finding one here. Actually... even if there were, I probably wouldn't be able to use it properly anyway, hehe. If I wanted to give Master a matching tuxedo as a gift later, practicing first might be wise. I'd have to study up on it once I returned home.
"Hup!"
I needed to adjust my clothes into something Master would enjoy. Well, they had said that removing one's uniform inside the academy wasn't a big deal, so it should be fine. I pulled down the zipper on the school uniform skirt and slipped it off.
Ziiip. Ziiip.
Hmm... the cut was a little crooked, but this should be acceptable, right? Just like the maid uniform I wore at Master's house, I had opened a hole so that only my pussy could be touched. It was rather clumsy work, but the knowledge that I had done something for Master filled me with considerable pride.
"Ah!"
Oh no, I had almost done something stupid again. If I wore it like this, my pussy wouldn't be visible. Of course I thought my pink panties were rather cute in their own way, but Master might not like them... I needed to remove my underwear quickly as well.
'Maybe... it would be better not to wear any at all...?'
The thought crossed my mind that I could simply go without underwear, but I decided the sense of taboo from having my bare skin touched through the clothes would feel better for Master. And... I preferred being touched directly that way too.
Tap tap tap.
"Master! What do you think? Does it suit me?"
After cutting the panties so that my pussy was fully exposed, I trotted over to Master and asked. Surely he would praise me? No, to be precise, I really hoped Master would stroke my head.
"Yeah, it suits you well, Sehee."
"Haaang...♡"
Master really is such a tease. Of course I had cut the underwear hoping he would touch my pussy, but I never imagined he would start touching me right away. Still... if it pleased Master, then I... Heut...♡ I'm so happy... Haaang♡♡
After the time Master spent tormenting my pussy came to an end, I remembered that I still hadn't returned the cutter knife. As Master's loyal maid, I must return borrowed items promptly.
"Ah!"
Oh dear. Because my panties had been soaked with pussy juices, a little of it had gotten onto the blade as well. If I returned it in this state, the friend who lent it would surely get angry. I didn't see any tissues nearby, so I would have to at least go to the bathroom and wash it.
'Where might the bathroom be...'
I still wasn't familiar with the layout here. If I was going to accompany Master around the academy in the future, I would need to memorize the map of this place. Otherwise I might fail to help him when he needed it later.
"There it is!"
Fortunately, after walking straight down the hallway, I spotted the bathroom. I was so glad I hadn't gotten lost.
"Student, where do you think you're going?"
A teacher passing through the hallway suddenly called out to me. I was only going to the bathroom—what could be the problem?
"Ah! I'm sorry!"
Oh no, why had I been about to enter the men's bathroom? For some reason this place felt more familiar. It was as if I had entered it unconsciously. It was probably because Master and I had played together in the bathroom so many times. Still, I must never do that with any man other than Master, so I needed to be careful.
"Ouch! It stings."
I had gone into the bathroom to wash the cutter knife, but it seemed I really was too clumsy. My finger had brushed against the edge of the blade. Blood began to trickle out.
"Hehe..."
The blood flowing from my finger wouldn't stop. But the way it flowed... it was fun how it streamed just like my pussy juices. The texture felt somehow similar too.
Yup. Yup. When I squeezed it lightly with my hand, a little more blood flowed out. The vivid red color was stimulating and strangely pleasant. For some reason I couldn't stop laughing.
"Hehehehehe..."
What was this? It was incredibly entertaining. Why did something like this feel so funny? The blood went drip, drip... flowing smoothly! The water in the sink began turning red where the blood touched it. It spread gradually, like paint. It was such a beautiful sight.
It felt like such a shame that I was the only one who knew about something this fun. Wouldn't other people enjoy it if they saw it too? Oh! I should show this to the friend who lent me the cutter knife earlier. I'm sure that friend would like it a lot.
Shaaa.
I had washed the cutter knife. This should be sufficient, right? I needed to return it to my friend quickly. There wasn't much time left before class started.
I ran briskly down the hallway back toward the classroom.
"Thank you for lending it to me. Here it is!"
"Hiiiiik!"
To show that the blade had been washed clean, I pulled it out to its full length. Of course I had washed it thoroughly, but since I was so clumsy there might be spots I had missed, so I held the blade right in front of their eyes. This way they could see it clearly and tell at a glance whether it was dirty or clean.
"Get that away from me! Are you trying to stab me with that thing?"
"Huh?"
Why were they getting so angry? I had tried my best, yet they were upset instead... it made me a little sad. Perhaps there was some problem. I wanted to extend the blade further so they could check again, but it had already reached its limit, so I simply lowered it.
'What should I do...'
My friend was in a bad mood. As a maid, I needed to take responsibility for such things.
'Hmm...'
I recalled that showing something fun in moments like this could help. They said it could quickly melt away any awkwardness between friends.
"Hup..."
"...What the hell are you doing? Are you crazy? Why are you stabbing your own hand!"
"Hehe... How is it? Isn't it fun? Would you like me to... do it for you too?"
"Get... get away from me!"
Hng... It was clearly fun and fascinating. Why did they dislike it? It had a slightly thrilling sensation that felt really good. The color was... incredibly pretty too.
I suppose I was still awkward. Oh well. I would simply have to work harder. As Master's servant, I mustn't become discouraged over something like this. I am merely an object; I cannot let trivial emotions interfere with my service to Master.
Ding-dong-dang-dong.
"Haaauuuh♡"
For some reason, just hearing that bell made my pussy juices drip. But it felt good... so it was quite pleasant. That was why I looked forward to break times when the bell would ring more often.
"Huh...?"
The blood I had spilled earlier to show my friend... was flowing far more than I expected. Drip, drip, it fell to the floor. Oh... no. If I let blood drip onto the floor like this... I would definitely receive 'punishment' just like at the mansion.
"Quickly... I have to clean it quickly..."
What should I do? How could I fix this? It was fortunate that Master hadn't looked this way yet, but I mustn't be discovered. I would have to wipe it up with my uniform at least.
"Eh...?"
When I touched the uniform with my hand, blood got on it instead. This was really... going to cause a big problem. The uniform getting dirty too... Master, Master would surely hate it.
Sway.
The world... was spinning. It began to turn round and round. It seemed I had stabbed myself deeper than I realized. The blood wouldn't stop. No... hurry... I still had to attend class with Master and receive more training... but my body wouldn't obey me anymore...
Thud.
I could hear screams of "Kyaa, kyaa" coming from around me. Was something exciting happening? I didn't know. I was just a little... sleepy. I'm sorry, Master, but... just five minutes... I want to sleep for just five more minutes.
