'Sometimes life is harsh on individuals, and many endure hardships at a young age that age their minds beyond their actual years. Stella is a prime example of that. In this case, we can especially say the opposite is true too; how many people are almost entering middle age or even becoming elderly yet still act like children.'

The two remained in each other's embrace for a while, one battling stray thoughts and the other finding solace in her fiancé's arms, before they separated slightly enough to see each other's faces.

"Thank you, Stella, for placing your trust in me. I promise you, from now on, I'll stop being the 'Fayte' you know."

"Yes, I believe in my h..husband."

"h..husband!!?"

"O..Of course, aren't you m..my future husband?"

Though her face was flushed with embarrassment, she didn't look away from the young man. She wanted to engrave this memory deep in her heart and mind. Finally, after a long wait, her fiancé was proud of her.

'Damn it!!! This girl has no intention of making it easy for me at all.'

As for Maimun, he found himself increasingly enamored with this girl, in addition to all her previously mentioned qualities that would make any man fall for her. The word 'wife' only added fuel to the fire, with her melodious voice. Maimun had no way of escaping this addiction.

"you are a good girl," he thought.

As a man and her fiancé, it was his duty to reward this little angel. So, he leaned down and kissed her forehead.

"What... what are you doing, fayte!?" she exclaimed.

"What? All I did was kiss my wife's forehead... Aren't you my future wife?" Maimun replied.

Stella's face turned red with embarrassment, and her ability to speak became uncertain.

"N... no, we're still... we... we haven't married yet, and Sina is here."

"Sina?"

Maimun truly remembered then that they were not alone. He turned to the girl standing there, her face flushed red. How could she not feel embarrassed witnessing such intimacy between the two without acknowledging her presence?

'Damn it, couldn't you have done such intimate actions away from here? As you know, I'm still unattached,' Sina cried bitterly after being forced to witness such a romantic display. She couldn't help but complain to herself.

"Ahem... ahem."

Maimun was momentarily struck by the beauty of this girl, although she didn't possess the same beauty as his fiancée, she remained a perfect beauty impossible to find in his real world, even after knowing her from Fayte's memory. But she didn't possess this extraordinary beauty in the memory of the previous owner.

'Come to think of it... Wasn't Stella much less beautiful in the memory of the guy called Fate?'

Maimun began to ponder the reason for this, and quickly recalled that there was a skill that had been deleted, called 'misogyny', and its effects made the person see the opposite sex in an unrealistic way.

'What a useless skill for a useless person. Fortunately, I got rid of it, or I wouldn't be able to see such beauty as it truly is.'

Maimun quickly returned to his senses and his surprise about the previous memory vanished. Then he apologized, rubbing his head.

"I'm sorry, Sina, for such a rude behavior on my part."

"It's... it's fine, young master," Sina replied, although she didn't really mean it, but her situation didn't allow her to voice such grievances.

'I don't recognize the young master anymore. All his actions today don't fit with the young master I know. First, he strikes his close friend, then he treats his fiancée kindly, and now he's apologizing to me!! And I thought I was one of the most knowledgeable people about him.'

'Well, I'm glad for this change. In the end, it's in Stella's favor, and she won't suffer anymore from a fiancé who hates her. He even became intimate with her and forgot that I'm here...'

Sina couldn't help but feel embarrassed by what had happened earlier before her eyes, but her expression quickly changed.

'I'm happy for her, but what about me? With the attention the young master showed towards Stella, is there still a chance for me? Does that mean all my efforts were in vain?'

While Sina was swimming in her thoughts, Maimun interrupted her thinking, saying, "Sina, go and prepare a room suitable for the future lady of the StoneHeart family."

"Do you mean, young master..."

Yes, I mean that the servants' room is not suitable for my fiancée. Starting today, she'll stop working as a maid, so prepare suitable clothes for her too."

"As you command, young master."

Sina was no longer surprised anymore; after everything that had happened, it was clear that Maimoun wouldn't let Stella do such things anymore.

"Thank you, Fayte, but I don't..."

Before Stella could finish her sentence, Maimoun interrupted her. He anticipated what Stella wanted to say, and he had no intention of listening to her or letting her continue working here as a maid.

"Silly girl, how can I let you work as a maid in your fiancé's palace? That's ridiculous. Be a good girl and listen to me."

"Yes, husband..."

Stella hadn't discussed anything further, and as a virtuous wife, she listened to her husband's words for her own good. She had become accustomed to this feeling, the feeling of being a cherished treasure cared for by her man with tenderness. While she enjoyed this feeling, she noticed that Sina was sad. She didn't know the reason for her sadness, but she knew how to alleviate it.

"Husband, may I make a request?"

"Really? Tell me, and if I can, I won't refuse your request."

Maimoun was surprised by the loli request. He knew from the previous owner's memory that she was a girl who didn't like to ask for help from anyone. This meant that she didn't see him like any other ordinary person, and that she truly needed to ask him. Therefore, he had no intention of letting her down.

"Thank you, Fayte. Now that I have my own room, I need a personal maid to assist me with my personal matters."

"Hmm, do you have someone in mind? Or should I find a maid for you?"

"No, there's no need for that. I have someone in mind, what do you think, Sina?"

Stella looked at Sina with a happy smile, waiting for her answer.

"Me? Do you mean you're willing to make me your personal maid?"

"Yes, what do you think, Sina? Are you willing to accept?"

"Of course, I accept, Stella..."

Sina was delighted with this offer. How could she not be happy when it was like a promotion for her? It was just better than her current position in every way.

"i..i mean, young lady..."

Less work, a higher salary, and a higher status. Instead of taking care of the entire palace, her job would now be limited to Stella and her room only. Plus, she wouldn't take orders from anyone but Stella. She would be the one giving orders to some of the maids. Not to mention the doubled salary... Sina urgently needed the money, so she repeated it twice.

'And finally, I've received something in return for my hard work... Although I expected more than that.'

Although she wanted to be the one addressed as the young lady, seeing Maimoun's intimacy towards Stella made her doubt if there was any hope left. It wasn't like she was waving the white flag, but such a position would only bring positive things. So, she had no objection to rejecting it.

"Please call me as before, we are now friends, aren't we?"

"....Stella." With such a sweet and gentle girl, Sina could barely hold back her tears.

Maimoun listened to the conversation between the two girls and laughed silently. He didn't know much about this girl named Sina from the previous owner's memory, but it was certain that she was a kind girl. She even came with Stella to support her against Daudrian, and this act was surely a sacrifice and a special bravery, especially for a girl.

"Alright, Sina, I rely on you to take care of my fiancée. If there's anything you need, don't hesitate to ask, and I promise, if possible, I'll fulfill it for you."

"Th... Thank you, young master."

'Surely, this isn't the young master I know... but I don't mind this version of him at all.'

Sina smiled contentedly. Although she didn't reach her goal, she was getting closer to it.

'... I hope so, at least.'

"Very well, I'll leave you to your affairs, and now I'll go see the head of the household, and then I'll talk to you, Stella."

"Alright, I'll be waiting for you then."

...

Maimoun was now walking quickly through the numerous corridors of the large palace without getting lost thanks to Fayte's memory, and during that time, he was thinking about what to do next.

'I don't know what I'm doing next, but it's undoubtedly important to make the most of this system if I want to survive in this world. It's good that I decided not to erase Fayte's memory, even though it's filled with useless things, it still contains important information that will be very useful for me to start in this world.'

As soon as he mentioned that, Maimoun almost burst into tears when he remembered the things Fayte cared about and filled most of his head with.

'The right way to apply makeup (for men), a hundred reasons to hate freedom thieves (women, devil's successors on earth), they brought us into life and thought they were our masters (The soul secrets of the parents), without work there will be no results? Eternal world deception (learn how to be successful in life from your bed)....'

Maimoun really wanted a way to get rid of this clutter in his mind. It occupied a large space in his head, and even if it was much smaller, he wouldn't leave it there if he could.

"Sigh... What's the point of crying over spilled milk? At least I have some important geographical, historical, and political information about this world. So, I have a general idea of where I am."

Maimoun looked at the bright side of this situation... but even that bright side wasn't entirely bright.

"But I need to organize this information. Even though I've inherited the memory, it's scattered information. I don't have enough time at the moment to sort it out and connect it all together."

 

end of this minni arc.

Arc was filled with emotions and internal thoughts, and since most of the characters in this arc are women... or at least that's the excuse I found.

Have some idea about my story? then tell me
