p1
>>Even though it's wrong, the villainess can't be stopped...!

>I, who had always lived in the moment,
>I don't know where you came from,
>but there are limits to how impertinent a girl can get!

>Prepare yourself, commoner!

>was reincarnated as a doomed villainess...

p2-3
>...'s hired maid.
>How did things turn out like this?

>I'll see to it that you become unwanted in this academy!!

>>A new fantasy yuri romcom serialization!!!

p5
>"I Dedicate This Miracle To Your Future", known as "AnaSasa" for short. [tn: Shortened from "Anata no Mirai ni Sasageru Kiseki"]
>A game all my otaku friends in my past life were obsessed with.
>It's an otome game set in a world of spirits in which the heroine faces hardships at a noble school.
>It's in this world that I...

p6
>No smartphone or anything.
>I thought I could at least enjoy it as a game,
>but it looks like I'm just a background character.
>Serina Flamel - Lower class noble

>All I can do is laugh, I guess. Lol.
>Past life: Gyaru.

p7
>I'm in a fantasy world, but I've only got a tiny bit of magic.
>And since I'm a low class noble, I can't even attend the elite academy where the game is set.
>On top of that...

>Sorry, Serina. I'm selling you off to pay off our debts.
>>Father
>Huuh!?
>Is this a punishment game?

>Hold on. The name of the family I've been sold to
>seens awfully familiar...?

p8
>Nice to meet you.
>I'm the head maid of the Celesbright family.
>You will be working under the young lady of this house.

>This maid uniform is totes cute<3
>I wonder if I can pull off being a maid?
>...I need to teach her how to wear it properly.

p9
>...Milady is a rather difficult person.
>Countless maids have refused to be exclusively attached to her until now.
>That being said, you were sold to us,
>so you should understand that you don't get to refuse.

>No biggies!
>Making friends is my specialty!
>I'm worried...

>Enter.

>Serina the maid here☆
>S'up!

p10
>Watch your tongue.
>Are you making fun of me?

>It's Almelia the villainess!

p11
>One of the four great nobles, Almelia Celesbright.
>In "AnaSasa", she's the foul-mouthed, bullying rival character
>who clashes with the heroine countless times.

>No wonder my perfect greeting didn't work...
>You're looking down on noble society, aren't you?

>You got this close without knowing even the bare minimum of manners?
>This is a joke, right? Disappear at once.

>Eep~
>She really is scary~...
>There's no way someone like me can work for a villainess...

p12
>Wait, hold up?
>If I'm Almeria's maid, I can go with her to Lapistella Academy where the game takes place!
>Which means I can meet my oshi Heroine-chan too!?
>?

>I'll do my best... ma'am!
>Please let me work for you!
>Huh?
>No, that's already been decided.

>I wanna get into Lapistella Academy~!!
>At least try to hide your motive.
>Stay away from me.

p13
>Milady... There's never been a maid at the student dorms before.

>...I have no choice.

>Are you interested in the academy?
>Yep!

>I'll pound the manners and knowhow into you.
>If you can prove yourself worthy to serve me,
>then on top of working for me,
>I'll allow you to enrol at the academy too.

>F'realz!?
>F'realz?
>The bigger the bait, the better.
>But I expect you to work like your life depends on it.

p14
>I'll do my best!
>Thanks, Lady Almelia!

>...
>This blows.

>Come to think of it, I'm a hip young'un who doesn't know the meaning of working like my life depends on it.
>Even so,

p15
>Almelia is way too Spartan!!
>What is this? Battle training for maids!?

>I see you've got it rough too.

>Being Milady's exclusive maid
>is as harsh as working as a maid can get.
>Not to mention

p16
>she's famous for her terrible personality.

>She's got too much pride to apologise,
>she never thanks anyone because her social standing is above everyone,
>and she's so distrusting that she doesn't trust anyone.
>Despite her talent, she always looks down on others
>and she's so stubborn that nobody has ever seen her smile.

p17
>She's pretty much hated by all the nobles her age.
>That's a villainess for you...

>If you're going to be with milady,
>be careful not to get involved and catch the attention of some bigshots.

>You probably have your own circumstances,
>but think about how you act.

>...Come to think of it, Almelia
>gets abandoned by everyone and falls into ruin...

p18
>Being among high society with all these bigshots is making me tota-... rather nervous.
>Since you're a maid, you'll just be serving food and drink alongside the others.
>You'll have to get used to it if you're going to serve me.

>I need to go off and greet people.
>Don't do anything weird.
>I'll try not to.

p19
>So you're the maid serving Almelia, huh?

>I'm surprised anyone would work for someone with a terrible personality like hers.
>One of the four great nobles, Laktasha Goldhaze.

>A great noble just like Almelia...
>Nice to meetcha. I'm Serina.

>...That woman.

p20
>Even in a place like this, she still makes that irritable expression.
>...If it weren't for our difference in magic, I'd be a much better suit for His Majesty's fiancee.
>They should break off the engagement sooner rather than later.

>...Oh yes.
>Hey, you.

>How about you work for me instead of Almelia?

>...What's that supposed to mean?
>I bet she's giving you harsh training, right?
>If money's an issue, I can pay you.

p21
>All you gotta do is exaggerate just a little
>and complain about Almelia's attitude to His Majesty.

>How underhanded~...
>...I must decline.

>...What? You're rejecting my invitation?

>Pretty cheeking for a maid.
>If I felt like it, someone like you would be...

>Stop it, Laktasha.

p22
>Still picking on those beneath you, I see.

>It's because you keep wasting time on that kind of thing that you'll never beat me.

>...I don't want to hear that from you.
>Being strict with your maids to the point that they run away
>is the very definition of wasting time.

>...
>I'm just doing what is necessary.

p23
>I'm just teaching her everything she needs to know to protect herself
>from authority abusing nobles like you.
>I haven't done anything worth regretting.

>If you're so inclined, how about I teach you too?
>I'm sure your maids have ran away faster than anyone else's.

p24
>...Hah.
>You're excused.

>But Milady.
>There's nothing you can do with your social standing here.

>...Right.

>...Lady Almelia is as harsh with her words as ever.
>I wish she'd show a little more womanly charm and weakness.

>...Indeed.

p25
>...Fufu. My apologies.

>It appears I had gotten worked up.

>We'll be attending the same academy starting this spring,
>so I don't really want things to be gloomy detween us.

>...I don't see her flunkies.
>What are you planning?

>...!!

p26
>Kyah!

>Ah.
>Sorry, I tripped...
>Oh, how terrible!

>It's not very humble for a noble
>to be showing so much leg, is it?

>Fufu... But that's just fine.
>Someone like you who lacks any charm
>has to resort to that to attract any men.

p27
>Uwah... How blatant.
>Everyone hates Almela-sama, after all.
>Fufu... But it serves her right.
>For starters, even the flunkies of the great nobles are high class nobles...
>What good will saying anything do?

>Think about how you act.
>There's nothing you can do with your social standing here.
>...That may be true, but...

>Why don't you try screaming?
>I'm sure you'll get some pity from the boys.

>...Hmph.

p28
>How pathetic.
>You think this would make me lose my composure?

>...How cheeky.
>Ooh...
>This is bad. The mood has changed.

>...But

>will she maintain that composure if her top half comes undone too.

>Let's go and fix up your dress...

p29
>Yeah, that kinda thing
>is impossible for me.

>...You really don't know your place.

>A low grade noble getting in my way.

p30
>Do you think you'll get away with
>Like I give a crap!
>Keep your damn hands off Milady!!

>Ee-

>Eeep!

p31
>...You're such a fraidy cat.
>Why don't you learn from Milady?

>...Giggle
>Hah
>...Ng!!

>...You'll regret this!!

>..Hah~
>Welp, there goes my job.

>...But still.

p32
>Man, was that refreshing~☆
>Don't be stupid.
>I somehow managed to sort things out after that,
>but you're going to get erased someday.

>Besides, I already noticed the girl was doing something suspicious behind me.
>I didn't need...
>...

>...A girl with a terrible personality like mine
>doesn't need... your help.

p33
>...So even you realised that.

>I couldn't control myself, though.

>Even I realise
>that I'm a failure of a noble.

>I know that to live in this world, you have to hold back on a lot of things.
>But I can't change the way I live just like that.
>...Even if I was reborn.

>Aha.
>Maybe

p34
>gyarus and villainesses
>are similar.

>What on earth? Gyaru? Villainesses?
>You've been using those useless words again.
>Hah
>Oh dear.

>You acted that to Laktasha too...
>...Seriously.
>Geez... you're so...

p35
>I guess a useless maid is perfect
>for a useless me,
>Serina.

p36
>...This might be my first time
>...seeing Almelia smile.
>Honestly.
>To think this is what my first exclusive maid would be like.

>Well, I don't know what Laktasha might do to you,
>so all I can do is keep you under my watch.
>She's surprisingly kind and caring
>and has a cute smile.
>Make sure to work hard after entering the academy.

>Almelia's smile that you'd never see
>from playing the game.

p37
>I've decided.

>I can't let this girl fall to ruin.
>I will definitely
>make you happy, Milady!

p38
>...
>...Hrh?

>..Wha-

>What are you saying!? We're both girls
>and I have a fiancée,
>and there's our social standings too!
>None of that matters when it comes to being happy.

>Y-You'll come to hate me soon enough.
>You're worried about me?
>You really are kind, Milady.

p39
>Hey, please.
>Could you order me
>to protect you?

>...Geez.
>Do what you want.
>Sure! I'll do my best!

p40
>... It can't be helped.
>I'll allow you... to talk like that when we're alone.
>Y'sure!? Thanks, Milady!

>...Ah!

>Come to think of it, you're letting me enrol at the academy, right!?
>I said that, didn't I?
>...Why do you want to enroll that badly?

>It's so...!
>I can meet my top oshi,
>the heroine Estella-chan!!

p41
>Oh man! I'm so excited<3
>...

>Who is that woman?
