My Servant System



What exactly should I pick?

Shadow Guard was something that would eventually need to be changed, but to what I don't know yet; my hopes of remaining out of the limelight was a little bleak, and it was entirely likely that the raise from being a simple Maid who had the fancy of the Heir of House Asmodia to becoming the Heir of a Barony myself would make me the object of scrutiny across the entire Empire's Nobility, as well as the wealthy Merchants and prominent Adventurers.

People would be curious about not only the Heir to House Asmodia - the attention comes with such a famous name like that - but also about me, the one who was now a Noble herself and had rather intimate relations to the Heir of House Asmodia, with the acceptance of both the Princess and the Begum.

All of that meant that having a class based around stealth and supporting my loves from the shadows would be far harder than it was before, though it was still possible.

Scrutiny would be levied onto me, and a quick check of the results of our first year of being at the Academy as well as the records at the Guild for our excursions into Zhu'Rong Caverns would paint a picture of someone with above average talent and skills, as well as the value of being an Ice Magician... it all would place limelight on me in abundance, but the question for myself would be if I accept the limelight or try to continue to avoid it.

There were choices here that would go either way; <Devoted Supporter>, <Succubus> and <Enchantress> would be things that would be easily concealed and entirely based on helping my lovers like I had initially wanted.

Buffing them from behind, soothing them - and potentially empowering them through intimacy - as well as the increased value and strength of the enchanted gear would all keep me in the place I wanted to be, doing what I wanted to do.

And yet, the world was changing quickly, the appearance of Fiends - while slow currently - and the pop up of Cults again, as well as the Gates that had quieted down for now, though who knew when they'd become active again...

With all those changes, was my desire to remain hidden away still a valid, possible goal?

Would it not be better to accept and embrace that light and instead seek out more power openly so that I could better protect my lovers and my family, which would be where I would pick one of the other three available classes.

What I had available was proficiency with a blade and some 'hidden' skills, a mixture of my mana types, or a hard pivot into straight Ice Mana so that I could deal heavy damage that way.

All valid options, and all still very much able to aid my lovers from behind, though it also made it easier for me if I was in the midst of things as well.

I could be both a support melee fighter or aiding with the use of offensive spells or a force to be reckoned with on my own; it offered a versatility that the other three classes didn't on surface levels.

In theory I could enchant gear so powerful that I wouldn't need to worry, but Lady Fenryas and the Marquess made a perfect point that relying on gear like that and having it ripped away would leave me vulnerable.

As for <Succubus>, I wasn't confident that I knew what it entailed and if it would be worth it; being empowered by sex and sexual acts sounded great, but I hadn't been plopped into an Eroge or some doujin world; it was one that ran on 'normal' principles and one that made it hard to accept such a Class when the world was in turmoil.

Besides, having sex before any battle could be detrimental, even if I was getting buffed or giving buffs for that slight decrease in physical performance thanks to the bodies release of things it needed during sex.

Finally, <Devoted Supporter> had some weight to it, but if I wasn't going to be adamant about my need to remain unseen now that I thought it'd be incredibly difficult then perhaps I shouldn't go for it.

Which left the offensive Classes, and I needed to weigh those properly as well; two magical Classes and one physical Class, and all three had merit to them too.

The magical Classes were going to be excellent at allowing me to flex the magical superiority that I was proud of, with two separate paths available; a more crowd control focused Class or more single target focused Class.

Then there was the <Serrated Seductress> Class that would amplify my melee prowess, and it sounded like it'd be something that enhanced both my blade work as well as my footwork, with a  potential link to Lust Mana as well..?

All three were entirely valid for different reasons, and I was thinking not on what would benefit me the most right now, but what would allow me to pursue strength further than I could naturally.

Skills added something to my abilities that were impossible - or really hard - to replicate without the System, and that was part of what made this choice even harder than I initially thought.

Should I be prioritizing the here and now?

Should I be making up for my shortcomings or adding to my strengths?

I believe that I can take my magic far on my own, so should I bring up my physical prowess to match it and even myself out even more, or should I play into my penchant for magic and add even more into that?

So many questions continued to flutter around my head freely, and I took a deep breath as I paused in front of the mirror, staring at myself again and trying to envision any of the three choices, hoping that it would help.

Was I thinking the right way, or was I not looking deep enough into it?

This wasn't something that I could just pick willy nilly; I needed to plan this out and understand what I was doing and make sure I wouldn't regret it, since this would be the only time I could do this.

I didn't know if or when I would be able to evolve my Classes, and if that would even help, so this was something that needed serious contemplation.

Sadly, for the moment I didn't have the most amount of time currently, as Anput peeked back inside and curiously asked "Jahi didn't wear you out, did she?"

Glaring at my mate, I sighed as I pulled on my clothes and joined her outside, pushing the decision back for just a little bit.

After I heard the Empress out, I would go and visit the chapel, using the calm, peaceful quiet of the chapel to further think over my choice, hoping a clear mind and clear environment would aid me even more.

And maybe whatever the Empress had to say would give me some insight on what I believed that I needed...

Or maybe not, but it was still something that I needed to do anyways, so...
