A Sudden Turn of Events?!

Chapter 43 • 1,172 words • 10 min read

After finishing the lengthy tongue-twister in one breath, Kazakami Ritsu almost couldn’t maintain the business smile on her face.

‘Damn it, how did that peer senior manage to read the entire ad script and still catch my words?’

After quietly catching her breath, Kazakami Ritsu continued her work as a host.

“Calculating the time, it seems there is only one last performance left for today’s program.”

Teraoin Hane nodded, her face full of anticipation.

‘What kind of script will Miss Kazakami bring out this time?’

Humming the melody of Good Luck Comes, Kazakami Ritsu swiftly took out two small balls from the lottery box.

‘At this point, no matter what role I draw, it won’t cause any fluctuation in my heart.’

Originally, Kazakami Ritsu thought so.

‘But what is this “Sadistic s*ave Owner” and “All-Purpose Maid” situation!’

After seeing the two identity settings clearly, Kazakami Ritsu immediately looked in the direction of Producer Kurau.

‘Unexpectedly, Producer Kurau, with those thick eyebrows and big eyes, actually plays this kind of game?’

Kazakami Ritsu’s brain spun rapidly, but in the end, she raised her hand expressionlessly.

“This… can we redraw?”

As soon as her voice fell, the surging bullet comments behind her had already given the answer for Producer Kurau.

[Don’t even think about escaping! God, face judgment!]

[This is the cleansing of your sins; this is blasphemy against the supreme existence!]

[I think what is about to happen next is the essence of the entire live broadcast tonight.]

[Come! Raise the curtain! The time for the performance has arrived!]

Producer Kurau smiled and shook her head; of course, she wouldn’t accept Kazakami Ritsu’s redraw request.

Seeing these two identities, Teraoin Hane let her imagination run wild with some plotlines, then reached into the lottery box with a blushing face.

With the appearance of the “Manor” scene, the hopeful light in Kazakami Ritsu’s eyes vanished instantly.

Under the uniform “Divine Punishment” text in the bullet comments, Teraoin Hane mustered her courage and reached out towards one of the identity balls.

“Wait, Teraoin-san, let me bear this sin to the end.”

Kazakami Ritsu reached out first and took the identity ball with “All-Purpose Maid” written on it into her hand.

She turned her head to look at the camera, exerting her acting skills to the extreme.

“Teraoin-san, since it’s already the end, let’s show everyone what they want to see…”

Teraoin Hane was slightly stunned upon hearing this, her eyes looking at Kazakami Ritsu full of reverence.

‘Truly worthy of Miss Kazakami… then I absolutely cannot drag her down!’

The two rookie voice actors looked solemn and began tonight’s final performance without any communication.

Night, inside a beautifully decorated manor.

A blonde girl in gorgeous clothes sat on a chair, looking coldly at the maid standing in front of her with her head bowed silently.

“Leah, why did you betray me?”

The girl’s tone was stiff, her eyes looking at the maid full of disappointment and anger.

The maid named Leah lowered her head even more, her posture appearing even more respectful.

“Miss Viola, I did not betray you, that was Young Master…”

Before Leah could finish speaking, Viola had already stood up from her chair with a face full of anger.

Viola walked up to Leah, reached out and grabbed Leah’s chin, forcing her to look up at herself.

She leaned down slightly, bringing her face close to Leah’s.

“Talking about Brother all day long, is he your master or am I your master?”

Listening to her master’s inquiry, Leah said the answer Viola wanted to hear without hesitation.

“Miss Viola, you are my only master.”

Listening to Leah’s answer, the corners of Viola’s mouth curled up slightly.

To create more pressure on Leah, she moved her face even closer.

“Then, why did you help him stop me? And you still say you didn’t want to betray me?”

While speaking, Viola greedily sniffed the familiar scent on the maid who had followed her since childhood and grew up with her. Her mind settled slightly.

“This matter might arouse the Master’s disgust. If you must do it… please let me do it for you.”

Leah looked at her master, her tone firm, unlike a maid.

‘This guy… really makes one involuntarily want to bully her.’

Viola’s heart stirred, and she slightly relaxed the hand holding Leah’s chin.

“That way you might be executed by Father. What would I do if I lost you? Forget it.”

Although saying this, Viola went a step further in her actions.

She suddenly used her other hand to support the back of Leah’s head, leaning down to kiss the cherry-colored lips before her eyes.

“This is a reward for your loyalty, Leah. Never sacrifice yourself; I cannot live without you.”

Leah seemed stunned by Viola’s sudden action and didn’t respond for a long time.

Actually, not only Leah, but even Kazakami Ritsu, who was following the plot development, was stunned at this moment.

She looked with disbelief at Teraoin Hane, who served as the narrator and pushed this plot very naturally.

At this moment, although Teraoin Hane’s cheeks were slightly red, she was not sunk like before.

Kazakami Ritsu couldn’t understand why she, who prided herself on being a veteran of the battlefield, would be plotted against by a somewhat socially anxious girl.

Just as Kazakami Ritsu was doubting life, Teraoin Hane, who was quietly observing her expression, pursed her lips tightly and picked up the microphone.

“The final performance ends here. I hope all viewers can enjoy our performance.”

The sudden voice in her ear pulled Kazakami Ritsu, who was still dazed, back to reality.

Her brain wasn’t completely clear yet, but her mouth had already subconsciously followed up.

“Beautiful times always pass quickly. I wonder if our performance today satisfied all the viewers?”

Accompanying the duet of the two, the bullet comments, which had paused for a moment, gradually became numerous again.

[God seems to have been overthrown by a subordinate? God has fallen!]

[Prime Minister Kazakami’s Defeat, this is Wuzhang Plains!]

[Now she really inherited the Prime Minister’s legacy. How did God fall so quickly?]

[Could it be… God is actually easy to handle?]

Looking at the bullet comments teasing her one by one, even with Kazakami Ritsu’s thick skin, her face felt slightly hot at this moment.

‘Bad, my lifelong reputation is ruined!’

She turned her head slightly, meeting her partner’s innocent gaze.

“So then, this live broadcast is coming to an end here. I hope everyone can support our work.”

Looking at each other for just a moment, Kazakami Ritsu actively avoided the gaze.

‘No, it doesn’t feel like I can look Teraoin in the eye peacefully right now.’

When the unaware Teraoin Hane finished speaking the last sentence, the two stood up from their seats in unison and waved to the camera.

When the light representing recording went out, Kazakami Ritsu sat back in her chair as if surviving a disaster.

‘Is it better not to accept jobs like live broadcasts in the future?’
