Rita’s probably been inspired by Ragna to take on this role, a Valkyrie that’s saved Rita when she was in middle school, but Rita says that it’s only a coincidence that she also grew up to be a maid. When Ragna told her that “maids are invincible”, Rita didn’t understand what she meant at first but later came to realize that it isn’t that a person becomes invincible because they’re a maid, but rather only
