Right after I woke up from that strange dream, a floating object was in my line of sight.
I couldn't touch it, but it was always in my line of sight.
Even though I blinked, the object didn't disappear from my line of sight.
"Kuh!" the pain in my head was still there. This wasn't a dream come true, was it?
I held my head and felt a cloth tied around it. I immediately got out of bed and looked at the mirror installed on the dressing table.
A cloth with a brownish stain was visible, this was no ordinary wound if it penetrated the cloth covering it.
Suddenly, the pain in my head got worse. I tried to hold it back by touching my head.
Crack!
A voice that surprised me was heard, right at the entrance to my room there was a Maid who dropped food and rushed towards me.
"L-Lily-sama.. are you okay?" she rushed to hug and carry me.

What is this?
Why is my view filled with information like this?
And.. Mio is a descendant of the Legendary Swordmaster?
What is this?
Does she like training with swords? And hates anything related to magic?
Linked Ritual? What is that again?
"Ukuh!" suddenly, the pain in my head returned.
"Lily-sama??" Mio was very confused by my behavior. She seemed panicked to do something.
Whatever it is, I need the effects of Linked.
But, what kind of ritual is that?
[The Linked Ritual is a Sacred Ritual that connects two hearts into one with a sweet kiss.]
A kiss? What is that?
[A kiss is a peck, the act of pressing one's lips against one's own or another person's body part.]
What is this? Why is this thing answering my question?
[Of course, because I am the Goddess who controls this system.]
G-Goddess? So it wasn't a dream?
[Yes!]
"Kuhu!!" the pain in my head is getting worse.
[Need help?]
Yes, Goddess! I need help now!
Can you reduce the pain in my head?
[It's easy, you just need to kiss your Maid.]
"Huh?"
"What's wrong, Lily-sama?" hearing my unintentionally released voice. Mio looked at me with an anxious expression.
If my memory serves me right, Mio is the Maid who took care of me since I was little. She was trained to take care of my needs from early on. However, it seemed like she needed a lot of experience to become my personal Maid.
"Guhu!" the pain in my head grew stronger.
"M-Mioo.." my voice sounded painful and Mio panicked even more.
"Can I kiss you?" I asked.
"Eh?" Mio fell silent after hearing it. Of course, she fell silent after hearing my strange request.
"W-Wait, Lily-sama. It seems like Mio heard wrong" Although Mio seemed like she didn't hear what I said before, the blush on her cheeks and ears was visible.
"Hurry up!" I shouted a little.
The pain in my head pushed my body to move closer to Mio.
Our faces were close to each other.
Now, the blush on Mio's cheeks was visible.
I immediately kissed Mio's tiny lips.
"Hng!" a small moan was heard. Mio's breath moved irregularly and pushed my body to release this kiss.
As our kiss broke, a red ribbon suddenly tied my little finger, and moved to tie it to Mio's little finger.
[Good job, Lily-chan! That was quite a beautiful sight!]
Ugh, this Goddess.. she enjoys toying with a girl.
[Fufu.. now.. try checking your personal Maid status one more time.]
"Hm?" I mumbled a little and checked Mio's status.

The pain in my head slowly disappeared, and my body felt light and energetic.
Is this the effect of the skill I managed to obtain?
"Lily-sama.." Mio looked at me with a strange gaze.
Her entire face was covered in red stains and her hands were holding her tiny lips.
"Y-Yes?" I felt a bad atmosphere coming.
"Again.."
"Eh?" I was a little surprised to hear Mio's request.
[Hoho.. why doesn't Lily-chan do it again?]
[Do it again, Lily-chan!]
This goddess...
She enjoyed this atmosphere.
[Eh, isn't the effect already felt? Lily-chan isn't dizzy anymore, right?]
That's true, but...
[Didn't Mio help Lily-chan?]
That's true...
[Come on! Again!!]
[Again!! Again!!]
This goddess! She is enjoying this atmosphere.
[Of course! The beauty of this world's flowers will soon bloom!]
Eh? What?
"Lily-sama..." This Mio looked at me with a pleading gaze.
I looked at Mio closely, besides her face that was covered in red, her pupils changed like a small dog begging for the love and affection of its master.
Uh, that gaze.
Unconsciously, I kissed her again.
