Became the Butler of the Second Heroine of the Harem

56 – Very Crab(1)

“Lady, I’ll be back soon.”

The nerves and doubts that I had been pricked up until now at the word that I would arrive at Uncle Gillian’s capital through the partition have become unnecessary.

I knew the thieves would attack as usual, but when my expectations were completely betrayed, I stared blankly at the window in a sense of futility.

“If I had known it would be like this, I would have taken the fastest route.”

Pu-wook, the sound of a dagger being stabbed in my heart rang in my head. I felt the gaze of the lady sitting next to me, so I closed her eyes and pretended to sleep, not turning her head in case I met her.

“Ahahahaha…But it’s a good thing that we arrived safely. Besides, if we took the fastest route and arrived in a small village and didn’t have enough accommodation to stay, we would be in a position to be homeless. Because he said it.”

Mr. Louis Thena, who had turned away from my help in the north, was actively trying to change the girl’s heart. The lady’s voice softened a little at the plausible explanation.

“It could have been. Come to think of it, I saw some of the faces I saw at the academy yesterday while looking around the town. I guess I should have left a little earlier. Then I could have taken you to see the capital…”

“It’s okay. The lady trained with the Count during vacation. The lady protects the person she loves…”

“Lu, Ruitena!”

I was taken aback by the young lady’s voice. I don’t know when you brought that up. Probably, whenever I was away, we talked a lot with each other. I just closed my eyes and listened.

“…No response…Is that it again?”

“That’s it again? Deacon, do you have any disease?”

“It’s not an illness, but I’ve fallen asleep a few times during the day like that without the world knowing. When this happens, I fall into such a deep sleep that I barely wake up after shaking my body.”

No. She’s pretending to sleep. Even when I hear the sound of my breathing, it’s all obvious. If caught, at least a low kick is guaranteed. I stayed still, as if I was playing the corpse game that was popular in the past.

“But it’s amazing. The lady shouted so much but she didn’t move… Didn’t you wake up until you really shook it?”

“Yes. The other day, after the entrance ceremony to the academy, he looked so tired, so I sent him to his room, but he fell asleep sitting in a chair. No matter how many times I called him, he didn’t answer…”

“Aha then…”

“…Yes. Yes…I knew it from then on.”

What is it? What were you doing then? Don’t just talk about what you know each other, let’s solve it!

Even though I was on the verge of going crazy, I couldn’t bear to ask because I was pretending to be asleep with my eyes closed to defend my calves.

…What did you do?

“Wow that’s awesome! You mean that was built by a real person? I can’t believe it.”

“Rumor has it that dwarfs famous for their dexterity also helped. It was said to be a small gift to the empire for finding light in the greatest darkness.”

When Angelo opened her mouth in admiration at the new white and large city wall of the capital, Gillian stroked her short beard and chatted happily with her story about her city wall.

Louis Tena also looked at the walls of the capital, where she had come for the second time, and unlike when she went to the north, she couldn’t take her eyes off her, sparkling with excitement at the thought that she was living in the capital.

Europe saw Ruytena’s appearance even though she was older than herself. She had experienced both sweet and salty spiciness. Her usual relaxed appearance and giving herself advice was like that of a country girl who came to Seoul. A smile was built on itself.

Sirius… Stayed still like his corpse until Gillian arrived to protect his calf.

After safely entering the capital, Angelo and Ruytenna turned their heads and looked around. In particular, Angelo, who entered the capital for the first time, almost collided with another carriage while watching in a state of fascination.

It was only after Gillian scolded me that I came to my senses and drove back to the academy.

“We have arrived, miss. The little butler…Is still sleeping.”

“Hmm…Have you arrived already? How long have I been asleep?”

From noble mtl dot com

“…About three hours? Did you wake up after hugging me? I thought I couldn’t wake up like last time, so I tried to hit my forehead.”

“Ha…hahahaha…”

When Gillian said that the carriage had stopped and arrived, and Sirius, who suddenly opened his eyes, showed tremendous acting skills as if he had just opened his eyes, it was Europa who spread his palms casually with suspicious ax eyes.

If she had woken up even a little later, she would have had a red forehead. She helped her get out of the carriage with her silly smile, but her suspicious eyes didn’t clear even after they got off.

In order to escape in her eyes, she removed all her belongings and got off at Luy Tena, then her eyes shifted to Angelo and Gillian.

“Then, I’ll see you both during winter break. Since you have time to spare, take your time and visit the capital. Angelo did so well that it’s hard to believe that it was his first long drive. Thanks to him, I came comfortably.”

“hahahaha, I’m still lacking, but I don’t know what to do with the lady’s praise. I’ll continue to learn hard under Mr. Gillian.”

Gillian hit Angelo on the back a few times and said that it was still a long way off, and she left the academy with Angelo, saying that she was doing well with Europa. They were the ones who started moving when they turned sideways at the corner of the alley and were out of sight.

“First of all, I should go to the dormitory and clean up and unload your belongings.”

“The academy would have done the cleaning. I would just have to organize my luggage. My luggage isn’t that big, so it won’t take long.”

“Yeah, no matter what I try, it’s just a few books and clothes. Isn’t it too light? Now we have to… Live separately… Just secretly together…”

Now she was Europa, hesitantly speaking at the thought of not being able to see each other at night in the dormitory. Unlike her, who looked a little sad, Sirius said with a clear smile as if telling her not to worry.

“If there is something lacking, I can buy it with my salary. As I said before, I get a lot of money. And the lady’s room will be uncomfortable for three of us because I don’t even have a bed to sleep in.”

“”…Haa…””

The same sigh rushed to his side and side to side. Europa and Ruythena standing next to her let out a sigh. The group arrived at the room behind Sirius, who was not sure why the two sighed at the same time.

Like Sirius said, Ruythena admired the neatly organized room. She got out of her attic and got her own room, and stood in a daze at the entrance to the unexpectedly well-built structure of the room.

In the meantime, Sirius first unpacked Europa’s luggage, then quickly packed up and came out of his room. As Europa had said, a voice came from the back of his head as he came out carrying only three books and a small bag of clothes.

“Come back quickly. I have to walk around the academy with Luitena and explain what the structure is like.”

“Yes, I’ll be back soon. I asked Mr. Alte before, so I know where it is, so I just need to go and go through the check-in procedures. Shall I buy some snacks on the way?”

While talking about snacks, Europa briefly touches his side. He murmured, concerned about his slightly protruding side due to the weight he had gained during the recent training session.

“…I’ll be fine for a day or so…”

“I won’t buy anything burdensome. Like last time, like chocolate cake…”

“Daddy, hurry up and come back!”

Her roar made Sirius run out of her room as if running away, and Louie Tena also began tidying up her belongings. Unlike Sirius, she had a little more stuff, so it took her a long time to organize.

As she was barely finishing her luggage, it was Louis Tena who hurried to the front door when she heard a knock on her door.

“Yes, I’ll go!”

Louie Thena greeted her guest who knocked on her door with her bright smile, but Shaulla, who was her guest, was full of embarrassment on her face.

“…Isn’t this Ms. Europa’s room…? Why are you seeing it for the first time…”

“Yes, that’s right, but…”

“So where is Sirius…”

“Luitena, who’s here? Oh, it’s Schaula. Long time no see. How are you?”

Before I knew it, the girl, who had changed into shorts and a similar T-shirt, greeted Shaula with her light steps. Shaulla, still unable to erase her puzzled expression, asked Europa.

“Eh…Miss Europa? That…Is that…?”

“Ah, this is the lady’s maid who will serve as my attendant from now on, Louis Thena. This is Louis Thena, the first friend she made at her academy, Shaula Scorpio, the second daughter of the Count Scorpio family of Scorpio.”

“Nice to meet you, Lady Shaula of the Scorpio family of Scorpio, the pillar that supports the Empire. As Lady Europa said, she is Louis Tena, who will be serving the lady from now on. Please feel free to call me.”

Even though she was said to be Europa’s first friend, she had no time to be moved.

She never thought of accepting Louis Tena’s polite greeting.

She couldn’t accept the momentary change of circumstances, and her whole body trembled as if she had caught a cold, and her eyes shook like an earthquake.

“So…Then Sirius didn’t come?”

“Like other students, I live in a dormitory for servants. Why have you been looking for Sirius since earlier? It’s sad.”

Shaulla, finally aware of the situation, managed to squeeze a laugh out of her.

“Ha…hahahaha…That’s right. I must have been embarrassed because I couldn’t see the face I used to see before vacation. You said it was Ruitena, right? Please take care of me.”

“Yes, it may not be enough compared to Deacon Sirius, but please take good care of me.”

“Yes…hahahaha…hahahahaha…”

When Louis Thena, who was subdued by her words, greeted her with a smile, Shaulla smiled awkwardly. Still, just when you thought it was better than not having him at all, an uninvited guest came in a hurry.

“Europe! Breathe Sirius… Where is Sirius…?”

A cry full of urgency in a voice close to mid-bass. Regula Leo, a bronze-skinned woman with her auburn hair in all directions, came running to her door, sweating profusely.

Europe instinctively felt ominous at the urgent voice searching for herself. Leaving her uneasy mind behind, she was the one who asked Regula back.

“What are you looking for Sirius for?”

“…The b*tch has arrived…Hide Sirius as much as possible so she doesn’t see it…”

“That b*tch…What the hell…”

“Aclus Kanker. After a break, she returned to the academy.”

Unlike Shaula, who broke into a cold sweat at her words, Europa frowned and noticed that she didn’t understand why.

“Who is that? If it’s Kanker…The family of Duke Kanker of the Twelve Pillars, Geohae Palace…”

“That b*tch…Is a crazy b*tch obsessed with the strong…”

Contrary to the serious atmosphere, the expressions of Europa and Ruy Thena, who was listening to the conversation beside her, turned rotten.

It was as if she was answering who she was.

“Now, this is the end of the procedure. As a person who serves a pillar that supports the empire of the distant future, I have assigned you a special room for one person.”

The employee in the dormitory management office handed me a key with a hard yet kind smile that he had on the job. I felt good because I was assigned to a special room because I was serving a lady.

“You don’t have to. Thank you.”

“Well, actually, it’s all done with money. William of the Taurus family applied for it, and Hankyu and Sirius were assigned to a special room with the twelve families as their priority.”

I didn’t like it for nothing. Then, was it possible that the lady was assigned to a special room for one person because she was assigned as a priority after applying?

When I arrived at the room I was going to use and opened the door with the key, it was a 1.5-Room accommodation with a living room the size of a lady’s room assigned to the academy dormitory and a room similar to mine.

It doesn’t have to be this wide, really. When I wasn’t Sirius, I got along just fine in the studio. Still, since I was assigned a room with a living room, I was a little worried about how to decorate it.

“Oops, this isn’t the time. I’ll just leave my stuff behind and go back.”

I remembered the lady’s words, so I threw my things on the bed and went outside to the dessert shop installed in the academy.

Seeing that it is located closer than the student dormitory, I wondered if it was installed close to the dormitory for servants because the servants were trying to buy desserts for the owner, not themselves.

As I was about to go to the store with a leisurely pace, someone was standing in the empty lot that crossed the student dormitory and the employee dormitory.

White hair that seems to have lost pigment, short hair that reaches almost to her shoulders, empty dark red eyes that don’t know where she’s looking, and fancy decorations on her waist that show off her slender figure with her school uniform sticking to her. A patterned scabbard.

I thought it would be quiet, but I never dreamed that we would meet here.

Among the heroines, the seventh heroine was obsessed with strength close to madness.

I met eyes with the daughter of Duke Aklus Kanker.

“…Black hair…First time seeing…”

To be called a crazy b*tch, it sounded like a fairy speaking with a friendly tone.

And then, as he drew his sword and ran at me, I thought the mad b*tch was right again.

This crazy b*tch is for real.
