Qin Chuan glanced at the door that Hayasaka Ai had locked, and beckoned to Hayasaka Ai.
Hayasaka Ai smiled slightly and quickly pressed her body against him.
……
"Ugh... being a maid is so tiring."
While Qin Chuan was fighting alongside Hayasaka Ai in the hotel, Gabriel had already arrived at Qin Chuan's house after school, changed into a maid outfit, and started her maid work under Tohru's supervision.
However, Gabriel was a lazybones, so after wiping the windows for a while, she immediately started complaining and wanted to slack off.
In particular, when she saw that super high-spec computer in Qin Chuan's bedroom, she couldn't help but feel a strong urge to buy it.
Just kidding, she usually plays on that laptop she's been using for over a year at home, and she's been wanting to get a new one for a long time.
It's just that I've never had any money.
"Damn it, I should have asked for more money to buy a computer when I sold the horn. Qin Chuan doesn't seem to care about that little bit of money anyway..."
Gabriel wiped the glass hard, a hint of regret creeping into her mind.
At the time, she didn't realize how rich Qin Chuan was. It wasn't until she visited Qin Chuan's home that she realized he probably had far more money than she had imagined.
After all, if he can afford to support so many maids, how could he possibly be short of money? The price of a computer is probably nothing to Qin Chuan; he wouldn't even blink an eye at that.
What Gabriel didn't notice was that while she was working, Thor was secretly watching her from behind.
Thor was always wary of Gabriel—after all, Gabriel could ignore cognitive confusion and see her dragon horns and tail, which made Thor have to be careful.
Thor wouldn't really care if Gabriel was only after him, but he suspected that Gabriel had some special reason for getting close to Qin Chuan.
After all, in Thor's view, Qin Chuan, like himself, was a stronger being than others in this society, so it was normal for him to attract the attention of some people with ulterior motives.
In Thor's mind, Gabriel is the kind of person with "ulterior motives," so for the safety of her master, she must find out Gabriel's origins!
Thor was unaware that Qin Chuan already knew Gabriel's background, and he also failed to realize that Gabriel was only working for Qin Chuan to make money.
If making money can be considered having ulterior motives, then it's not necessarily wrong.
Just as Thor was observing Gabriel, the sound of the door opening came from the doorway—Qin Chuan had returned.
Gabriel, who already knew what she was supposed to do as a maid, paused for a moment, then dropped the rag in her hand and prepared to greet Qin Chuan.
Compared to the physically demanding task of cleaning windows, welcoming Qin Chuan was obviously much easier, so it was only natural that Jia Bai 5.9 would make this choice.
After standing up, Gabriel thought for a moment, then took out a halo from her pocket.
That was Gabriel's proof of being an angel. It had become moldy and blackened from being unused for a long time, but today she cleaned the halo thoroughly, and it returned to its radiant state.
Because she had seen Thor wearing dragon horns and a dragon tail before, Gabriel naturally assumed that Qin Chuan might be into this kind of alien cosplay.
Since she likes to cosplay as a dragon maid, surely she, a genuine angel, can satisfy Qin Chuan as well?
With this in mind, Gabriel placed the halo on her head before excitedly going to the door to greet Qin Chuan.
Thor was left standing behind her, looking on in shock.
Chapter 311 Gabriel's Hesitation
After dinner, Gabriel received her wages from Thor and went home happily.
Maids are usually paid monthly, but Gabriel is a special case, so Qin Chuan allows her to be paid daily.
Given Gabriel's personality, she'd probably spend all her daily salary on in-game purchases that very night.
Saving money is probably not a concept in Gabriel's mind, and she has definitely forgotten about Vigne's suggestion to save money to buy back the Doomsday Horn.
However, thanks to Gabriel's mistaken belief that Qin Chuan liked cosplay maids, Thor discovered Gabriel's true identity today.
"It's an angel! I never thought A-Chuan would know an angel."
As night fell, Thor was scrubbing Qin Chuan's back in the bathroom, feeling somewhat emotional—this evening, when she saw Gabriel take out her halo and put it on, she was quite frightened.
Although the angels in this world are somewhat different from the gods in the other world, Thor was sealed away by the divine sword of the other world, so he still has some psychological trauma.
05 Fortunately, although Gabriel has an angelic halo, her behavior has not changed because of that halo; she still acts like a useless angel.
So Thor quickly accepted this fact and understood why Gabriel could ignore his own perceptions and confuse magic.
"Although she is an angel, she is no different from an ordinary girl. There is no need to pay too much attention to her."
Qin Chuan said with a smile that Gabriel is just an ordinary homebody now, and she has almost forgotten about angels.
She probably only remembers that she's still an angel when she receives her monthly allowance from heaven.
Speaking of which, just as Gabriel was leaving after collecting her wages, Qin Chuan received a call from Winette.
After all, it's such an important matter that Gabriel went to someone else's house to work as a maid, so it's impossible for Vinette, as Gabriel's friend, not to know.
Vignette had already learned of this news from Gabriel while she was at school that morning.
Although Winette had basically accepted that Qin Chuan was not a dangerous person after visiting his home last weekend, Qin Chuan was still a teenage high school boy.
Therefore, Winette was still a little worried about Gabriel's situation at Qin Chuan's house, so after Gabriel finished work, she called like a mother to ask about the situation.
Although Qin Chuan felt that he should ask Gabriel directly about this matter, he still told Vigne about Gabriel's situation.
She even told Vigne about how Gabriel received her daily salary after work.
Vigne is probably already blocking Gabriel's door—after all, Qin Chuan knows that Gabriel will definitely spend money on in-game purchases after receiving the money, so Vigne couldn't possibly be unaware of that.
I wonder how Gabriel will react when we play the game later.
……
The angel who saves lives: "My money has been stolen!!!"
Sure enough, after opening the online game that night, Qin Chuan saw Gabriel's private message to him, filled with pitiful cries.
It's easy to guess who stole her money—it must have been Winette. She took Gabriel's salary, probably to save it up and buy back the Doomsday Horn from Qin Chuan.
Of course, Winette wasn't heartless; she definitely left Gabriel some of her salary.
However, that amount of money was far less than the amount Gabriel initially wanted to spend on in-game purchases, which is why Gabriel couldn't help but send a private message to Qin Chuan, complaining about Vinette's "cruelty".
However, Gabriel obviously didn't know that it was Qin Chuan who told Winette that he had received his salary.
Kobold: "My condolences, but I'm sure Vignette will leave you some money."
Qin Chuan replied without changing his expression, as if the fact that Gabriel's money was stolen had nothing to do with him.
The Angel of Salvation: "Although I did save some... it's still not enough. I was even prepared to spend money to upgrade a piece of jewelry. Damn it."
Gabriel's remarks were exactly like those of a typical online game addict; it's safe to say that this guy really needs Vinette to keep an eye on him.
However, Gabriel obviously didn't think so. After complaining, Gabriel privately messaged Qin Chuan and proposed a new idea.
The Angel of Salvation: "How about you, kobold, just transfer my daily wages directly to my account from now on?"
Kobold: "...Then you'll have to talk to Thor yourself."
Qin Chuan has already entrusted Thor with all matters related to the maids—although it has only been a few days, Thor has already become capable of handling the position of head maid.
It must be said that dragons have a very strong learning ability, which explains why they always regard humans as an inferior species.
The angel of salvation said, "Thor... your head maid has been staring at me all day. I wonder if I did something to upset her."
Speaking of Thor, Gabriel also had a bit of a headache—she had naturally noticed that Thor had been staring at her all day, so she was worried that Thor might be targeting her.
However, Qin Chuan knew why Thor was paying so much attention to Gabriel today, but since Gabriel didn't seem to notice that Thor's horns and tail weren't cosplay, he didn't reveal the truth.
Kobold: "Don't worry, Thor is always this wary of the girls around me."
It's true that Thor is easily jealous. Although Thor has gradually accepted that Qin Chuan has many girls around him, he still tries to get back at him in other ways.
For example, on the night of 8:23, Thor's fighting time was always the longest, as if only in this way could she feel that she was the most loved by Qin Chuan.
The Angel of Salvation: "That's not right, aren't Ogiwara and Irisviel not the ones she's hostile towards?"
However, Gabriel quickly realized something was wrong—Qin Chuan's house wasn't just occupied by a few people like them; Tohru acted perfectly normally in front of Ogiwara Sayu and Irisviel.
Upon seeing this message, Qin Chuan paused for a moment before typing a reply.
Kobold: "Their situation is rather special. Are you sure you want to do the same thing as them?"
The angel who saves lives: "...Ah."
Gabriel seemed to realize something and suddenly fell silent.
After all, she's a homebody. Although she mostly uses her computer for gaming, she inevitably learns some inappropriate content online.
Thinking of how Ogiwara Sayu and Irisviel usually treated Qin Chuan without any sense of boundaries, Gabriel immediately understood what was going on.
Gabriel's reply came much later.
The angel who saves lives: "It's too early for that. Let's think about it later."
"Ok?"
Qin Chuan was also taken aback when he saw this reply.
Judging from Gabriel's reply... she doesn't seem to be rejecting it; she just feels it's too early.
Chapter 312 Gabriel's Distress
"Ugh... Seriously! I should have known those women in the dog-headed man's house would have that kind of relationship!"
In Gabriel's room, she looked at the private messages on her computer screen and couldn't help but cover her face and let out a frustrated groan.
Come to think of it, how could a boy living in a house with several girls who aren't even relatives have no relationship at all?
Gabriel had been so engrossed in online games that she hadn't noticed this before—but now that Qin Chuan had pointed it out, Gabriel suddenly realized it.
Tohru wasn't hostile towards Sayu Ogiwara and Irisviel; it was just that their relationships with Qin Chuan had already progressed significantly, so Tohru's jealousy didn't really matter.
Looking back now, when I was at Qin Chuan's house last weekend, the way the other girls looked at me, although mostly kind, still left me with a slight sense of wariness.
At the time, Gabriel didn't pay attention to that slight sense of wariness, thinking that it was because it was the first time they had met, so there was still a bit of unfamiliarity, which was why she had that feeling.
But now that I think about it, that sense of wariness wasn't because of unfamiliarity at all, but because they were worried that they were also "fish-stealing cats" trying to steal Qin Chuan from them!
Now that's settled, Gabriel and Qin Chuan's relationship was originally just that of online gaming buddies, but after this strange relationship was made public, Gabriel suddenly felt a little ashamed.
Even if she didn't have that thought at first... now, in the eyes of outsiders, she should be one of their rivals for Qin Chuan, right?
"Gabriel? What are you doing? Why are you making such a fuss?"
Just as she was rolling around on the bed with her pillow, trying to lessen her embarrassment, Winette opened the door to the room.
Vinette was holding a feather duster in her hand—not for beating Gabriel, of course, but for cleaning Gabriel's room.
Gabriel's room gets very dirty and messy every now and then, so Winette often comes to clean it.
Today was just a routine cleaning day, but I also took a large portion of the wages Gabriel received from Qin Chuan.
Seeing Gabriel tumbling around in front of the computer, Vinette became wary again.
"You're not going to ask Qin Chuan for something again, are you? We haven't even raised enough money to buy the Doomsday Horn yet, so don't owe Qin Chuan any more money!"
This shows that in Vigne's mind, Gabriel is a troublemaker who might cause trouble if she's not careful.
"I don't have one!"
Gabriel quickly reached out and closed the private chat window—although she wasn't actually asking Qin Chuan for money, the conversation just now was indeed inappropriate for others to see.
Even her good friend Winette wouldn't do... Even Gabriel, who has completely degenerated into a gaming addict, still knows what shame is in this matter.
"……Really?"
Vinette had clearly noticed Gabriel closing the in-game private chat window, and couldn't help but squint and stare at Gabriel for a while.
Gabriel felt a little flustered under her gaze, wondering if Winette was about to pounce on her and force open the private chat window to check the chat history.
Fortunately, Vinette still had some sense of propriety. Seeing how nervous Gabriel was, Vinette ultimately didn't force her to check, but instead pursed her lips and said:
"Never mind, I can just call Qin Chuan and ask him whether it was done or not later."
Clearly, Winette has also begun to get used to communicating with Qin Chuan by phone.
……
Late at night, after feeding Thor and the others, Qin Chuan once again entered the Infinite Horror VR game.
This thing that claims to be a game, I have no idea who made it—it's clearly a system similar to a cheat code, but they insist on calling it a game.
