"Stop right there." Allecto pointed at Megaera with an attitude.

'These two really have conflicting personalities…' Joren thought. He will try to step in if necessary and if it involves him in the first place.

"Do you still have a problem with me being released so early?"

Megaera didn't back down and raised an eyebrow.

"Yes, and also…"

"Also?"

"Also… aren't you too ashamed to follow a lesser undead's orders?"

Allecto said after some pauses. She got embarrassed by what she was going to say so she stopped at the last moment. As for what she will actually say, only she was aware of it.

'So, it had to do with me… a little bit.'

Joren thought he should just listen for a while.

"This is the Lord's orders, you want me to disobey him?" Megaera replied.

"No, but there's no need to be that close to that lesser undead."

Allecto squinted her eyes but Megaera took this the other way around.

'So, she's worried about my image too…'

"You don't have to worry about me, Allecto." Megaera smiled, happy for Allecto's intentions for her.

'She's…' Allecto realized something, 'She's mocking me! What's with that smile!?'

An aura of anger surged from her body.

'She's…' Megaera realized something too, 'Allecto's getting angry for me. What a sweet sister I have!'

'I think there's some misunderstanding that's happening around here.'

Tisiphone, who was hiding in the far corner of the ceiling, watched in a casual manner. She was easily floating in the air with none noticing her.

"Don't make me any angrier…!"

Allecto barely restraint herself.

"Allecto, it's just for one week." Megaera lightly giggled.

'She does not care at all!'

Allecto's rage was reaching her limit faster than before for some reason. Tisiphone could feel it and knew danger was about to come. Danger towards Allecto since whenever she had her rampage, the palace will get damaged even with her and Megaera trying to stop her.

Hades would always give her the worst punishments.

'Allecto has been banned from Macebook and Instagrim, this time, she will be banned from using Critter, I can't lose one of my followers!'

Tisiphone was ready to act when Joren stepped into Megaera's front.

"I think there's a misunderstanding here."

"…" Allecto just stood and menacingly glared.

'Oh no, he's talking to me! I can't face him like this!'

She faced the other way and said.

"Megaera, come here…!"

'Ugh, I'm not even worth talking to… huh…'

Joren didn't know if he should laugh or cry. On the other hand, Megaera found something amiss.

"No, I said already, it's fine."

"Tsk!"

Allecto stomped towards Joren and took Megaera's hands.

"Let's talk somewhere else!" Allecto said as she continue to face the other direction. At the same time, she felt a hand grabbing her wrist.

"Megaera, don't resis-"

But it wasn't Megaera who held her wrist.

'Oh no, the undead's going to fully die!' Tisiphone knew that the situation have reached a critical point so she appeared in the scene in the next instant.

"Allecto…!" Tisiphone was about to do someting when she saw Allecto's face.

Usually, whenever Allecto's furious, her beautiful face would contort to that of a demon queen. But this time, she looked like a little child.

"Uwa-! Why are you touching me!?"

Allecto panicked. Before, she could easily wrap herself around Joren's body. But now, the littlest touch makes her weak.

"Stop that!"

"What's wrong, Allecto?" Tisiphone asked.

"Eh, where did you come from?"

Joren only noticed the winged Tisiphone at that moment. Taking this chance, Allecto removed her wrists from Joren's grasp and pinched Tisiphone's wings.

"Hey!"

This made Allecto able to fly and immediately escape the scene.

"You'll pay for that!" Tisiphone, the Goddess of Revenge, went after Allecto.

"... well, that was odd." Joren muttered after they left with a terrifying speed that strongly blew the wind.

"It's odd, indeed." Megaera pondered with a nod.

Meanwhile, Allecto flew into a room and locked herself in it.

"Don't come in here! I locked it!"

"Idiot, that's our room, I have the key for it as well!" Tisiphone kicked down the door and pinched Allecto's cheeks.

Seeing Allecto face to face, Tisiphone stopped.

"Why are your cheeks burning?"

Smoke was literally puffing out of her cheeks and forehead.

"I've heard about this… but only mortals have fevers." Tisiphone said with a low voice.

"Stop! I don't have a fever!"

Allecto slapped Tisiphone's hands away. After a pause, Tisiphone then took Allecto's hand and slapped it with the same power.

"What the…? This is why I don't like messing with you!"

"Fortunately" Tisiphone then sat down beside Allecto, "Is something wrong?"

"Nothing… also, help me with something." Allecto stood up.

"Is this about the undead then? If you don't really like him here, you could give him his soul back and he'll be out." Tisiphone pointed at the half-soul that was sitting comfortably in a bird's cage attached to the ceiling.

"Look, it's rising up again." she then noticed the thing between its thighs and lightly laughed while putting her phone up, "I'm going to post this again. People kept telling me I'm a poser."

"..."

Allecto frowned at this sight which Tisiphone noticed.

"What's the matter?"

"If this is really the half-soul of… that undead. Then, doesn't this mean, he's aroused right now?"

"Oh my… what a lustful beast. Now that I think about it, they should still be connected."

Hearing this, Allecto then pulled Tisiphone by her hand, "Let's go!"

Meanwhile…

'Peace… peace…'

Joren was surrounded by the maids in the kitchen. Right now, Megaera just changed into a maid's outfit since she had been wanting to try one and this was a rare chance. He had to stop the rise of his enemy he needs to beat!

'Later, once this is all done, I'm going to defeat you!'

Joren was on fire in more ways than one except for the phrase's literal meaning.

Megaera felt awkward with everyone's stares. It was the first time in a long long while that one of their masters have stepped down into the kitchen department of the palace.

Not only that but Megaera is here to work!

It was just baffling!

'I'm melting! Goddess Megaera is so gorgeous! Her long legs made the outfit perfectly fits her!' Kidrith was shivering from excitement. She wanted to kneel in front of Joren at that moment to express her gratitude.

"Actually, I think I'm going to change back."

Not knowing they were stares of praise, Megaera's mood got a little sour.

'What!? No!' Kidrith and the other servants all internally shouted but none of them were able to tell it to their master out loud.

"No, it's fine. Why would you change back? It suits you."

Joren stopped her after concentrating on 'removing' his enemy.

"Damn it…!"

Allecto clenched her fists while Tisiphone understood where she was coming from.

"Is he saying that Lady Megaera should be a servant…!?"

Tisiphone was not the one who said that. The sisters then looked onto their side and saw that three beads were peeking out of the vent on the wall. They were actually peeking from inside the ceiling.

"What is Nebarius doing there?"

"Looks like he's stalking Joren too." Allecto replied with a whisper.

Meanwhile, Nebarius have no idea that he has been spotted.

"Hm, this is humiliating but… if that's what you want."

Megaera sighed, she don't want to go against Hades' orders. Furthermore, she knew Joren's true nature. In her eyes, he's no ordinary undead after that incident within Tartarus. He's either insane, stupid, or he has something that no others have.

"Okay, then what should we do, Kidrith?"

Joren suddenly looked at her to which Kidrith suddenly felt a mountain's weight on her shoulders.

"Me?"

"Yeah, I've only been here for a day. What should we do now that dinner is finished?"

Kidrith began to sweat.

'I couldn't possibly order Lady Megaera around!' she glanced and saw that Megaera was looking at her with lowered eyelids as if saying that she have limited patience.

"Umm… you're the guest helping out, Sir Joren… what do you want to do?" she tried her hardest not to stutter or sound weak, but at the same time, she didn't want to use her usual authoritative tone.

'I want some private space with her but… with those three stalking us, we wouldn't be able to.'

Joren already knew about Allecto, Tisiphone, and Nebarius. Unlike the others, he wasn't used to that place, thus, he was able to spot them. Others wouldn't look at the ceiling they've already seen a million times. Meanwhile, Joren would subconsciously look around the moment he entered there. Furthermore, after being followed by Allecto and Persephone at the UnderWorldLand, he began to put his guard up to those who might be secretly watching him.

'Could they hear us from that far away?' Joren figured not because if they can, Megaera should be able to too. If that's the case, Joren wanted to talk with Megaera in privacy.

"Then, are there some places we can clean then? We might get in the way here." Joren said even though he had already worked with them once to make the dinner.

For the servants, it was both good and bad. Good that there will be no pressure by having a master of them there and bad that they will not see their Lady Megaera in a maid outfit more.

But Kidrith had no say so she pointed a room for them to clean.. She really tried her hardest.
