Combat Maid Harem
Chapter 19 - Ella’s Bounty Canceled

Aleshia walked down the merchant district and headed towards the Adventurer Guild. She opened the door and she was immediately observed by almost all of the people inside. They were all a little bit mesmerized by her beauty. It was rare to see beautiful women inside the adventurer guild except for the receptionists.

"Good afternoon, Customer."

The receptionist behind the desk smiled at her. She was another big-breasted Big Sister; different from the one that served Lawrend before. This type of woman was the woman that adventurers liked so the Adventurer Guild employed many of them to keep the men in check.

"I would like to cancel this bounty."

Aleshia pushed the piece of paper Lawrend gave her towards the receptionist. The receptionist looked at it and raised an eyebrow.

"Oya? Isn't this Mr. Lawrend's Alive Bounty?"

The receptionist was aware of the big bounties that were set in the adventurer guild. There's no way she could mistake something this major.

"He gave it to me."

Aleshia replied without any emotion. She was too eager to cancel the bounty on her little sister's head to care about anything else.

"Hmm… I guess I can't really stop you. As per the rules of the contract: Anyone who holds this original copy of the contract may cancel it. I'll go get our copy."

The receptionist walked towards the back and entered a room. She walked back out bringing with her another piece of paper. It was exactly similar to the one that Aleshia just gave her.

"Everyone, be the witness!"

The receptionist caught everyone's attention before ripping both of the contracts in half right before their eyes.

"With that, this contract is now invalid."

The receptionist smiled at Aleshia. She murmured a chant and a magical flame soared on her hands. It burned the contract papers to ashes.

"Do you need anything else?"

The receptionist asked with the same smile. Everything happened so fast and smooth that Aleshia felt that she was dreaming.

"No."

Aleshia left the Adventurer Guild with a smile. Her little sister can now live once again in peace. No bounty hunters would hunt her and going out would not be a problem.

Meanwhile, inside the Adventurer Guild. A burly man walked towards the receptionist with anger.

"Jane, what about us bounty hunters?"

This burly man was one of the bounty hunters in the guild. He was still researching this little girl in the poster but it was canceled just right before his eyes. He couldn't help but become angry because of it. He used his hard-earned money to start researching into the background of this little girl yet he would get nothing now.

"I'm sorry, but our policy says that the bounty hunters are on their own. If they could complete the bounty then they could take the reward but if the bounty was taken by someone else or canceled, it will not be our fault that they were incompetent."

Jane replied back with a professional smile hanging on her face.

"Geh! At least give me compensation!"

The bounty hunter was not willing to leave without any compensation. He stood in front of Jane with anger.

"If you think that you could scare me, be my guest."

There was a frown on Jane's face and she stared straight into the bounty hunter's eye. She was also fidgeting her hands restlessly.

"You're just a receptionist!"

The bounty hunter swung his hand to slap her on the face. All of the veteran adventurers inside the guild were looking at the bounty hunter in amusement. He was doing something idiotic right now.

"Tch. Another troublemaker. Glorious Flaming Blast!"

With a short chant, a huge burst of flames escaped from Jane's hand. She pushed it towards the bounty hunter's chest and before he could even react, he was already thrown outside the guild.

CLAP CLAP CLAP

All of the adventurers clapped at her performance. It was not every day that they could get to see something like this.

"Wooo! Miss Jane is really the best! Another troublemaker down!"

The adventurers celebrated enthusiastically.

Back to Aleshia. She was entirely unaware that her actions just caused trouble inside the Adventurer Guild. Right now she was walking inside the slum district. She was excited to visit her little sister.

"Ella? Are you here?"

Aleshia entered their dilapidated home and called for Ella. Ella peeked her head out behind a box. There was a relieved smile on her face after seeing her Big Sister.

"Big Sister!"

Ella ran towards Aleshia and embraced her waist. Ella was 9 years old so she was still quite short. Aleshia crouched down and patted Ella's back.

"Want to have some roasted chicken?"

Aleshia raised her hands and a paper bag with roasted chicken inside appeared in front of Ella's vision. Before Aleshia came to the slum district, she passed by a rotisserie so she bought some in celebration for Ella's safety.

"Wow, really? Big Sister is the best!"

Ella exclaimed in joy. She and Aleshia had the best dinner that they had for years.

Just before the sky darkened, Aleshia was already on her way back to Lawrend's mansion. She already cooked food for Ella's dinner and breakfast for tomorrow. So she doesn't have to come tomorrow early in the morning.

Aleshia was already inside her room when a knock sounded from outside. She opened the door and found Albert waiting for her outside. He was holding onto a hanger with a maid uniform hanging on it.

"Aleshia, this is your uniform."

Albert passed the uniform to Aleshia. Aleshia looked at it in amazement. It was so intricately designed. There was an insignia of the Horiel family on its front. She didn't expect it to be this high quality when it was only made in a single day.

"Thank you."

Aleshia bowed towards Albert. She was genuinely impressed by this uniform. She bets that it would feel very professional if she wore it.

"No problem. More will come tomorrow morning. So don't worry about staining it with your work. The Young Master will pay for all of your expenses as long as you are working in this mansion."

Albert explained with a smile on his face. Although he was still very suspicious of her, her manners made him satisfied.
