What? I Actually Reincarnated As Stepping Stone In Another World?

Arthur walked in a very long hallway, and his purple eyes looked cold.

Now, there was no innocent and naive expression on his face when he met David.

His gaze was fixed straight ahead, leaving him no opportunity to appreciate the opulent decorations lining the hallway, which were markedly different from the first time he set foot in the mansion.

He didn't have time for that because, in his mind, he was thinking about many variables that didn't fit into the novel.

He also realized that he did not seem to be in the world of the novel "The Birth of the Elemental Lord," which he was reading.

Perhaps he had reincarnated into a parallel world similar to the novel.

Also, he thought of the terrifying possibility that the novel in his previous world took the background of this fantasy world and made it into a novel.

The characters, the powers, and the background were all similar.

Although there were some things that were different from the novel's description, he was almost 60% sure that the novel and this world were similar.

Someone who wrote a novel by taking the storyboard of this world was truly terrifying.

What level of power could such a person have to control time and space like that?

Two different worlds can be connected like this.

Arthur still remembered that in his previous world, he had no interest in reading online novels.

With his family's status and nobility, did he have to read online novels?

Of course not!

However, the novel suddenly caught his attention, and he devoted enough time to it that it was very strange.

Until reincarnation into this world, that cannot be explained.

"Looks like I have to go to this mansion's library to get to know this strange world better."

Arthur said inwardly, and he walked into the hall ahead.

Arthur soon spotted a stunningly beautiful young maid standing at the end of the hallway, as if she were waiting for someone.

As Arthur walked over, the beautiful young maid smiled charmingly and approached him.

"Welcome, young master." She bowed her head and greeted him respectfully.

Arthur stopped and looked at her.

Her face looked very beautiful, with her childlike charm radiating from it.

Arthur estimated that she was only five or six years old, which is about the same age as him.

Her purple hair fell short on her shoulders, and her black eyes looked very charming.

If she was given time to mature, he was sure that she would be a beauty, not inferior to the beautiful women out there.

She was half a head shorter than him.

Arthur quickly removed his cold and indifferent face and smiled gently at her.

"Stand up," Arthur said lightly.

She immediately raised her face and looked at Arthur curiously and dumbfounded.

'Handsome!

'Very handsome'

'How can there be a person with a face like this?"

She was stunned and looked at Arthur's face without blinking at all.

Arthur, who realized the strangeness of the beautiful maid, immediately called out to her.

"Hello."

"Have you seen enough?"

Arthur smiled gently and spoke in a curious tone.

Immediately, she came to her senses, and a blush spread rapidly across her face.

However, she soon realized her mistake, and a frightened expression appeared on her face.

"I'm sorry, young master!" She immediately prostrated herself before Arthur, and her body trembled with fear.

This was her first day working as a maid in the Duke of Asvold's mansion.

And she made a big mistake on her first day of work, which made her afraid that she would be kicked out.

She struggled so hard to get a job, which was the only way she could survive and be safe.

Also, she had no parents or relatives to support her.

She was very lucky that one of the senior maids in the mansion helped her to get a job as a maid in the mansion.

However, she made a mistake that she thought was fatal.

After all, she was disrespectful to the son and heir of the mansion, the Duke of Asvold!

Her body was trembling, and she was really scared now.

"What if the young master gets angry?"

"I don't want to go back to that dark place."

She was trembling and terrified.

There were many cases of maids being removed because they made small mistakes in other nobles' mansions.

Arthur was surprised to see her bowing down to him.

He immediately squatted down, helped her up, and spoke softly.

"There is no need to be afraid."

"I won't get angry over a little thing like this, you know?"

"Also, I don't like someone prostrating themselves to me like that."

Arthur smiled a gentle smile that was like spring.

She trembled and slowly looked at Arthur's face.

"Really, young master?" She looked at Arthur's smiling face and slowly calmed down.

Arthur nodded his head with a gentle smile.

The young maid looked into Arthur's charming violet eyes, and suddenly her heart skipped a beat.

"Beautiful," she unconsciously said, and she immediately closed her mouth.

Arthur just shook his head, and soon they both stood up.

"Alright, what's your name?" Arthur asked the young maid lightly.

"Greetings, young master!"

"My name is Runa, and I will be your personal maid who will take care of you, young master!"

The beautiful maid named Runa bowed her head and spoke nervously.

After all, this was her first time working as a maid and taking care of someone.

She also did not expect that on her first day of work, she would be made the personal maid of the heir and young master of Duke Asvold's mansion.

She was scared and hesitant at first, but seeing her young master's gentle and handsome face and figure completely released all her fears.

Moreover, she felt that she seemed to fall in love at the sight of his beautiful and charming eyes!

Her eyes sparkled, and she seemed excited about her life with her young master!

However, Arthur, who heard her name, suddenly fell silent, and soon a small smile appeared on his face.

"Hehehe"

"My dear, my reliable general has finally appeared!"

Arthur laughed in his heart and looked back at the little maid in front of him.

The more he looked at Runa, the more he loved the little girl in front of him.

After all, she was "Arthur's" right hand in the novel and was a very terrible strategist.

That said, the most excellent and intelligent person in the entire novel "Birth of an Elemental Lord," other than Arthur, Elizabeth, and the women of the Ancient Star Empire, was this Runa.

The figure that even Arthur in the novel really recognized was Runa.

The little girl, who would become a very terrifying figure in the future, and Abel, the protagonist, also became her toys.

It's just that she ended up dying not long after Arthur died—she died with Arthur's corpse in her arms!

Perhaps you could say she was the only heroine villain besides Elizabeth, who was always by Arthur's side in the novel until the end.

Runa, who saw Arthur smiling at her, suddenly turned red and felt her heart beat fast.

She lowered her gaze in shame.

Seeing this, Arthur couldn't help but smile and immediately stroke her small head.

"Alright, Runa,"

"You are my personal maid and will be by my side in the future, you know?"

Runa, who was patted by Arthur, felt surprised, and her face heated up.

"Y-yes, young master," Runa replied nervously, and she didn't dare look at Arthur in front of her.

Arthur chuckled and immediately said, "Alright, will you accompany me to the mansion library?"

"I don't know the direction."

Arthur said it lightly and smiled.

Runa immediately raised her small head and looked at the smiling Arthur.

"Yes, young master."

"Please follow me!" Her face was still red, and she hurriedly turned around and walked forward.

Arthur shook his head and smiled at the little girl's shy actions.

"I will protect you, my little maid."

"Together, we will fight this fate."

Arthur muttered in his heart, and he followed Runa towards the library.
