Hello guys and welcome to my 2nd fanfic. The idea this time is that Kamito started working for Greyworth after losing Restia. Of course, being a male elementalist, Kamito is unable to move freely as a guy. Thus, Greyworth sent him undercover as a Maid!? Warning: Kamito will be slightly op as he learned more of the Absolute Blade Arts from his time working under Greyworth. This will be following canon(mostly). I won't make any OCs. No lemons because I don't want to be known as a lemon writer. Sorry to those that wanted them.

I do not own Seirei Tsukai no Blade dance or annoying tsunderes would not exist.

"Speech"

'thoughts'

'mental conversations'

*sfx*

And without further ado, the story begins.

"What does my old hag master want now?" Kamito thought as he stared intently at the contents of a letter addressed to him.

"'Your contracted spirit is still alive. Follow the instructions on the paper if you want to meet her again'" Kamito read the letter out loud.

-Three days later-

A beautiful maiden was trudging along the forest. The maiden was clad in a maid's attire. Her dress was a bit frillier than normal maids. She donned a black one-piece with a skirt that reached her knees. There was a red ribbon that tied the collar of the dress together. She was also wearing a white half-apron on top of it. The maid covered both her hands with a white glove. Her maid look was complete with a white lace head band on the top of her long black hair. Indeed, the maiden would be able to capture the hearts of men anywhere. If she was judged based on her looks, no one would think she was a lowly maid but a noble at first sight. However, that maiden was hiding a really important secret that would destroy the fantasies of men who knew her. That 'she' was actually a guy.

"Just how big is this place?" Kamito was in awe as he has been wandering through the forest for a few hours without seeing any signs of civilization.

*Splash*, the sound of water could be heard through the forest. Curious, Kamito went towards the source and ended up at a small clearing. Kamito's attention was drawn towards a giant tree growing in the middle of a lake. Kamito's eyes looked for the source of the sound and at the base of the tree he saw-

A girl.

A naked girl in the middle of a bath.

'Oh shi-' "Who are you and what are you doing here?" The redhead girl questioned him, no her, of his intentions.

'Calm down, my cover is not blown, I can still play this off.'

"I am but a lowly maid. I am here on Greyworth's orders."

'Tch, it's getting harder to hide my voice due to my age. I hope she didn't notice anything.'

"The Headmaster's orders?" The girl became curious as the principal's name came up.

Kamito turned his body away from her as he realised that he was indeed looking at a young girl's body. A hint of red could be seen on his fair cheeks.

Interested in the maid's story, the redhead came back to shore.

A rustling sound could now be heard coming from the bathing girl. She was drying herself in front of a fire. No, that was not a normal fire, it is a fire spirit in the form of a cute red cat.

The girl then put on a white dress and stockings. She had also tied her hair in a twin-tail fashion.

"Why did you turn away?" The redhead asked the maid.

"Because I am a maid and you are a noble." The maid replied with her back facing her.

"I am not a noble." The girl whispered softly as though she was ashamed of that fact. 'Well... not anymore that is.'

"My name is Claire Rouge. I am a student of Areishia Spirit Academy. Nice to meet you." The girl tapped the maid's shoulder and extended her right hand.

Kamito turned around and shook her hand.

"So what brings you here?" Claire asked for the reason of the maid's presence.

"Umm... I got lost."

"I will show you the way to the academy later. I have to contract a spirit first."

'A spirit? But isn't there one following her right now?'

Then, the duo party departed from the lake towards a small shrine. The shrine was aged and dirty. The entrance was blocked by a barrier.

Claire concentrated divine magic on her finger and dispelled the barrier. Claire summoned a ball of fire in her hand and the duo entered the darkness of the building under the illumination of the fire.

"Stay back, you might get hurt." Claire warned Kamito.

"Why? Is the spirit you are trying to contract sealed?"

"You know a lot for a maid."

"I have served plenty of nobles before. Most were elementalists."

"Then you should know to stay out of my way as I cannot guarantee your safety."

"Yes."

'Now this is interesting. I wonder what spirit is sealed here?'

As the two reach the inner-most area of the shrine, Kamito spoke up.

"Is that the sealed spirit?" The maid pointed at the sword partially embedded in a rock.

"The Sacred Sword of Severian."

'...Did she just say the Sacred Sword of Severian?'

"The legendary demon slayer used by Areishia herself?"

"Of course not. It is probably weaker than the real thing but it should be strong if it needed to be sealed nonetheless."

Claire stepped forward and grabbed the sword by its hilt.

"Oh Noble Spirit Sealed in Ancient Holy Sword!"

"Thou Shall Accept Me as Thy Master and I Shall Be Thy Sheathe!"

"Thrice I Command Thee, Exchange Vows With Me!"

After the chant, Claire lifted the sword out of the rock.

'No way, is she really contracting with a sealed spirit?'

"Yes! I did it!" Claire exclaimed in joy. However, no spirit seal appeared on any part of her body.

Suddenly, the sword shone brightly and a strong gust of wind was generated in the shrine with the sword as its source. The sword wrestled itself free from Claire's grip. The sword started to float near the ceiling.

Claire stood there in shock as the sword adjusted itself to point its sharp edge towards the elementalist.

"Watch out!" Kamito shouted at Claire to try to get her back in her senses.

"It just needs to be tamed. That's all." Claire summoned her contracted spirit.

"We should just leave!" Kamito took Claire's hand and pulled her out of the shrine. The summoned contracted spirit chased after them.

Although Kamito was wearing a long skirt, he had no trouble in running. It was obvious Kamito was used to his clothing.

"Why did you pull me out of there? I could have handled it easily!"

"We have no time for this. It is coming!" Kamito warned Claire as he reached down under his skirt and took out two small daggers.

The sword had followed them out of the entrance. The sword was focusing on Claire as it swooped down to attack. Claire was fighting it by casting fireball and by distracting its attention by using her contracted spirit. Although Claire's fireball was strong, it required a chant. Unfortunately for Claire, the sword swooped down to attack her while she started to chant another fireball.

*Stab*

The sword impaled the contracted spirit as it jumped in the way to protect her master.

"Scarlet! No!"

Claire lost her will to fight as she got down on her knees, clutching her contracted spirit as it dematerialised into nothingness.

'I guess I should interfere.'

As the sword floated back up in preparation for another attack at Claire, Kamito stepped forward and took a stance with his daggers ready.

The sword swung down but was stopped by a single dagger in Kamito's left hand. He put his right hand forward and started chanting.

"Oh Noble Spirit Sealed in Ancient Holy Sword!"

"Thou Shall Accept Me as Thy Master and I Shall Be Thy Sheathe!"

"Thrice I Command Thee, Exchange Vows With Me!"

The sword started shining brightly but instead of trying to wrestle itself free, it disappeared.

"W-What have you done? That was my spirit." Claire started scolding the maid.

"Take responsibility! Be my maid and serve under me!"

"Huh!?"

And that's a wrap! I will be updating randomly as It is my examinations right now. Feel free to rate and review. I am looking for a name Kamito could have used when he was undercover as a maid so feel free to suggest one.

Edit: I have decided on a name and it will be mentioned in the next chapter.
