Yuri hired a maid recently. She is diligent and orderly at work, yet extremely mysterious. One day, Lilith suddenly turned up on Yuri's doorstep offering to work as a maid. She is so good as work, but the Yuri does not understand why a such beautiful woman who cooks amazingly would like to work at his run-down house. Lilith's eyes are purple, and they seem to pull you in, making her looks more suspicious and mysterious!
