Maid Olympia, a festival of maidsā¦ā¦ held once every 4 years and was apparently a major event. However, the location of said event is almost completely unknown, and only maidsā¦ā¦ Or perhaps, audiences invited by the participants are informed of the event.
The location of the event seems to be different each time, and when the date is near, the location is announced by Ein-san through a network for maids.
The World Maids Association, another mysterious organization, is apparently the one in charge of the Maid Olympia, and as I had heard before, this Associationās President, Ein-san, seems to be the representative of the association.
The Maid Culture in this world is mostly due to Ein-san.
[ā¦ā¦I see, if you want to concentrate on cheering for Lunamaria, I canāt insist on this matter then. If thatās the case, I will withdraw my request of asking you to be our Special Judge this time.]
[Thank you. But in the first place, Iām not qualified to be a judge for the Maid Olympia, right?]
In the first place, I wasnāt sure what they did in the Maid Olympiaā¦ā¦ If itās about competing in their skills as a maid, does that mean theyāre competing with their tea brewing or sweeping skills?
If I think of it that way, I can enjoy it as some sort of competitionā¦ā¦ I guess? Iām not really sure. If thereās something like a cooking competition, I think it would be fun to watch.
[No, Kaito-sama is the Maid Advisor certified by the World Maid Association, so your participation as a Judge wouldnāt be any problem.]
[ā¦ā¦Maid Advisor? Me? How did that happen?]
When did I get certified for such a mysterious title? I had no clue when that happened, what that is, and I really wished that organization would stop putting that title on my forehead. What the heck is with people and one-sidedly making me part of the Maid Worldā¦ā¦
To begin with, I wouldnāt have any advice to give to maidsā¦ā¦
[Back at the Six Kings Festival, Kaito-sama had reminded me of what it meant to be a maid and what the pride of a maid is. The passionate words you told me at that time are still deeply engraved in my heart.]
[ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦]
ā¦ā¦I did say something like that huh. Certainly, at that time, I, who was going along with my emotions and acting like a smart-ass, was somehow able to comfort the depressed Ein-san, who was saying she wasnāt a maid.
I had solved the maid-related worries of Ein-sanā¦ā¦ The President of the World Maid Association and one of the most distinguished figures in the Maid World. And thatās why, I have now become this Maid Advisorā¦ā¦ I see, this is what they meant when they say people sometimes dig their own graves huh.
[ā¦ā¦W- Well, in any case, thatās why Iāll be there as part of the regular audience.]
[Understood. I will do my best as the organizer to make the tournament satisfactory for Kaito-sama to watch.]
[ā¦ā¦P- Please do your best.]
I donāt really know what Iām telling her to do her best butā¦ā¦ Well, whatever.
[Come to think of it, has the venue for this timeās event been decided already?]
[Yes, we are holding it in the Southern Demon Realm this time. I had asked for cooperation from Magnawell and Eingana. We have also secured the āpreyā for the maids to hunt in the competition. Iāll give you a map later.]
[ā¦ā¦Understood.]
Itās a competition to see who has the best skills as a maid, right? Where are the words like prey and hunt coming from? We shouldnāt be talking about a hunterās tournamentā¦ā¦ What the heck are maidsā¦ā¦
[Speaking of which, this time, we actually had the pleasure of having Nebula-sama help us with the prizes.]
[Eh? You got something from Nebula?]
[Yes, when I came for my monthly visit to buy tea, I heard that they were now making their own teacups, so I looked at their creations and found that they were wonderful products.]
[Well, Nebula is amazing after all.]
As expected of Ein-san, being someone who stands at the top of maids, she seems to have a wonderful eye for detail. Yes, the ceramics made by Nebula and Illness-san are really wonderful.
So much so that, even though this may just be my personal favoritism towards my family acting up, I personally think it wouldnāt be strange if their products were to be lined up in a luxury storeā¦ā¦
[In addition, they have created a number of wonderful products, such as that ingeniously crafted sugar, and Iām truly impressed.]
[Iām sure Nebula would also be happy to hear you say that, Ein-san.]
Unnn, unnn, thinking about it again makes me proud of her. Nebula is an amazing girl with a wealth of ideas and the dexterity to make them a reality.
Whether itās sugar, chocolate, or ceramics, she would always surprise me, making me look forward to seeing what sheād do next.
[And so, I asked Nebula to prepare a specially designed tea set with the World Maid Association crest as the prize for the winner of the Maid Olympia. And as prizes for the top winners, we prepared an assortment of crafted sugar.]
[I see, so thatās how it is.]
[Yes, Iām really humbled by Nebula-sama for willingly accepting my request. With such great prizes, the friendly competition among the participants will be even more rewarding.]
[Fumu fumu, Iām looking forward to it.]
Well, I suppose sheās right. With Nebulaās creations as prizes, I think people will be more motivated and it will be a great competition to watch.
This might make me look forward to the Maid Olympia a little more.

[Afterword]
Serious-senpai : [After saying all those complaints about Maid Olympia, thatās a large 180ā¦ā¦ Idiot Parent-Mode Activated.]
? ? ? : [Well, Ein-san isnāt really trying to please him and was saying it with sincerity, so that must have put Kaito-san in such a good mood. He would be able to tell if someoneās just trying to flatter him with his Sympathy Magic after all.]
