Became the Butler of the Second Heroine of the Harem

12 – It’s a cliché(2)

It’s been a while since the lady went to bed. If you think about the time zone, it will probably be around 11 o’clock. She was falling asleep in my arms, perhaps because the young lady’s sleeping habits had deteriorated.

It would have been difficult to remove in the past, but that effort has been reduced. I got up and changed into a tailcoat carefully so as not to wake him. I changed and looked in the mirror to see if there was anything wrong.

Dark as night, long black hair over the shoulders. The lady said she liked growing them in her old days, so she still grows them, but as far as her bangs are uncomfortable, she cuts them.

In contrast, I could see myself wearing a tailcoat and a youthful face with bright yellow eyes that seemed to glow in the dark.

“hahahaha, he’s so handsome.”

Every time I look in the mirror and see my face, I am surprised. I looked around two or three times and pinched my cheeks to see if my face matched the face full of ‘probability’ mentioned in so-called novels.

It’s always new and thrilling.

This was my admiration, and I held my hair in a ponytail to make it easier to act, and when I put on a silver ring the size of the ring the butler had given me, with one side pierced, I tightened my hair to make it easier to move.

When I became a butler, when I told him that my hair was messy, he gave me something as a birthday present. He said that it was an artifact obtained from the Mage’s Tower, and that he gave it to me because it often breaks if you move it roughly with a string.

Thanks to that, my hair was tidied up. After checking that there were no leaks, I left the room and knocked on Uncle Gillian’s door in room 413. The door opened shortly thereafter.

“Oh, are you here?”

“Yes, take good care of my lady.”

“Don’t worry. The movement below that is unusual.”

As expected, the old man seemed to notice. I simply nodded.

“I’ll be careful. If the young lady was hurt while dealing with the bandits earlier, he grumbled about who would take care of him.”

“hahahaha, that’s how you become our little butler. Did you even say that?”

With that answer, Uncle Gillian smiled and stroked my head before entering the room where the lady was.

Now let’s proceed with clichés.

It is a cliché to beat and deal with the bastards who are attacking the main character’s group.

#

“This time, the target even skipped a meal with drugs. Even so, it’s one girl, one little boy, and one coachman. Everyone is ready and we’ll attack in 30 minutes.”

The basement of the inn where Sirius and the others stayed. A man with a thick voice and a stern face was giving instructions to other men. On the table, the bast face that looked like the hostess’s face and the clothes the hostess was wearing were strewn about.

“I never thought there would be nobles in a corner like this. The people who lived here were right.”

“That’s right. I was leaking steam because I was just trying to find out how many adventurers were passing by, but I never dreamed that such a big thing would come out.”

“Hey, did you see that girl doing it earlier? I really wanted to destroy her acting arrogantly. Kya~”

“I was more interested in the body than that. How did you come out and go in? I thought nobles were all pigs.”

Everybody was making cheap jokes as if they were excited, pretending to shake their crotch or grab their breasts.

“But the kid had black hair. Have you guys seen any other black hair? I’ve never seen one before.”

Everyone shook their heads or tilted their heads at one person’s question. The person who asked for the gesture that he hadn’t seen all of them opened his mouth.

“Is he from outside the empire? He’s a good guy too.”

“Or maybe it’s from the north hee hee. Can I taste that little bastard?”

A man stuck out his tongue and licked his lips. My mouth watered, and saliva flowed between my parted lips.

“Ehuh f*ck, there’s no one to take a kid.”

“Kehehehe!”

Before going on a picnic the next day, saying what to do with each other, the excited personnel, like students who couldn’t sleep because of excitement, took out their weapons one by one and looked at their condition, and the 30 minutes passed in an instant.

“Come on, let’s go. Let’s rob and finish this place now. Business is so bad here.”

“That’s right, there’s a village I know of at the foot of the mountain nearby. Shall we go there next time?”

“Are there a lot of people there? Let’s look at the condition and talk later.”

The group walks up the stairs casually talking as if they are talking about ordinary business. I reached the 4th floor and arrived at the hallway where Sirius and the others were staying.

“Hey, what is that?”

One person who arrived on the 4th floor asked another person. What he saw was Sirius, a boy in a tailcoat with dark hair and a youthful face, standing there smiling.

“Welcome. Sirius, the butler of the Taurus family, greets you.”

Sirius bowed his head with his right foot back and his right hand on his stomach. He slowly raised his head and opened his mouth again.

“And goodbye.”

In an instant, he appeared right in front of the man standing in front and thrust his fist into his stomach. The same foot and fist came out in the same direction at the same time.

The man who flew away as he was hit didn’t catch the party behind him, so he fell backwards.

“Sir, what is this! What happened!”

People who had not climbed the stairs were unaware of the situation and tried to climb up in haste. But they couldn’t climb.

It’s because the screams of the party who climbed the stairs first and the sound of something breaking. After the sound ended, a boy with golden eyes was looking down at the end of the stairs on the 4th floor.

“The butler told me not to kill people, so I’ll deal with you with my fists and feet.”

I jumped off the stairs and took a heavy kick at the party. The man who was hit in the shoulder couldn’t balance and fell down the side of the stairs.

Avoiding the falling party, another man swung his sword, but in front of Sirius’ fist, the sword shattered like an icicle on a midwinter day.

“What, what!”

“The lady is sleeping, so be quiet.”

Sirius placed his hand on his mouth with the index finger of his left hand and gave a powerful kick to the mouth of the opponent who shouted. His teeth fell out like corn cobs being pulled out of his battered mouth.

“Huh!”

“You should be quiet now”

Soon after, he hit his leg with a low kick to break his posture, and using the rotational force of the low kick, the back kick of the other foot hit the back of the head and knocked him down.

The man at the back who was witnessing this scene, the man who first gave instructions to everyone in the basement of the inn, was trembling like an aspen tree.

Obviously younger than themselves. Even so, he trembled at the way of fighting that was more skillful than the experienced adventurers who came here.

‘Uh…How did you fight like that at such a young age?’

As the concerto of increasingly approaching screams and blows came to an end, Sirius, with the eyes of a black-haired beast, trudged in front of the man.

“It was harder than this when I was training, but it’s worse than when I was training.”

“…What the hell are you?”

He tilted his head at his question and opened his mouth as if realizing something.

“You must have not heard because you are below. The butler of the Taurus family. This is Sirius. Come to think of it, I see you again after seeing you below. Temporary hostess.”

The man’s trembling eyes seemed to be asking, “How did you know?”

“How…How did you find out?”

“Compared to the aged heroine’s face, even though her body is covered with clothes, her uncle-like muscles are all over the place. Wouldn’t it be strange? The mask was also awkwardly bright enough to make the corner of her mouth suspicious.”

Sirius raises the corner of his mouth with each index finger. A man with a mocking expression raised his sword.

“Ha, did a kid like you notice that the other adventurers who came here didn’t notice too?”

“You can see it just by looking at it.”

“Okay. Then I’ll tell you something better.”

As a novice sword expert, he secretly turned the flow of magic to use the sword aura, the last resort he could. His magical energy slowly rode from his hand to the sword, and the sword aura was about to appear.

In less than two seconds before he could do that, Sirius swung his blade at the sword. The sword eventually broke in two before it even wrapped around the sword aura.

“What…”

“It’s obvious that he’s gathering mana, but will anyone leave it alone?”

Magic energy that had lost its destination flowed backwards and affected the flow of magical energy. While taking a deep breath and holding his hand to calm the backflow of mana, Sirius leisurely brushed his hand.

“Then, use your last resort now. Was the sword aura your last?

“…”

“Then take a deep breath and everything will be over, so get a good night’s sleep.”

“Wait a minute!”

The last thing he saw was a fist flying right in his face.

#

My swordsmanship instructor, Mr. Robert, said that if you see a person holding a sword and sighing, 80% of them must be idiots gathering magic to cast a sword aura.

Especially, those who have entered the beginning of the sword expert often think of it as a kind of special move and use it as a last resort, and he said that he had barely changed that habit.

I wondered if there would be someone who did it literally, but I didn’t know that it would actually come out. Well, with that skill, it’s enough to dodge it even if you wear a sword aura.

Looking like it was almost over, I looked around and wiped my hands. There was no blood or flesh on his hand because he had been cut cleanly, but there was a little blood on his shoes, probably because his kick was not good enough.

I swallowed my mouth and gently wiped the blood from my shoes onto their clothes.

I don’t know why my mouth waters when I keep seeing blood.

I decided to practice kicking more, gathered them in the corner of the hallway on the 3rd floor, tied them up, and went down to the basement.

I was going to find out if there was anyone left in this village. He quietly searched the basement, but found no one. I searched all over to see if they were staying in other lodgings, but there were only empty lodgings.

Were all the other villagers the same? The aftertaste was bitter. It bothered me that the people who took money from others without shedding a sweat and the people who lived hard because of the scoundrels were gone.

I went to my room, leaving behind my uncomfortable feelings.

I was about to knock on the door, but hesitated. I checked the time to see if it was still past 12. About 10 minutes left until 12:00. Not a day has passed.

I checked today’s date and knocked on the door. After three knocks, two knocks, and then four knocks, the door opened.

It is a password used only by employees when they are out or have special business, and the knocking method differs depending on the date.

“Oh, Sirius. You’re here earlier than expected.”

The man carefully opened the door and greeted me. She was lying on the bed as the lady was still asleep.

“I was just talking nonsense. By the way, could I stop by the village where the Imperial Security Guard is on my way?”

“The Security Guard? Why are you suddenly like this?”

“I searched the village, but I couldn’t find a single villager. I think it’s a bit serious, so I think I’ll have to hand it over to the police.”

“Do you have any evidence? No matter how Taurus, it would be difficult to explain with words.”

I didn’t even think about that. If something goes wrong, the lady will be in trouble, so she had to be careful.

“Hmm…Then let’s start by asking if there’s been any strange activity in this town lately.”

“Rather, it could be misunderstood like we did. I think it would be good to take one of them who seems to be the leader. Especially things like this have a bounty.”

“What if there is no bounty?”

“…Usually everything is there.”

No, so what would you do without it…

My uncle and I moved to the third floor and checked them out. After examining the condition in which I had subdued them, I pointed out the last person I fought who had played the mistress as admirable.

“Didn’t this guy try to use a sword aura? Among robbers like this, 90% would be the leader if he used an aura. Let’s put this guy in the luggage compartment.”

I nodded at that and tore off one of the clothes they were wearing, gagged them, and made a mask to cover their face. Then I threw it in the luggage compartment and asked how to get there.

“Hmm… If you turn the road just a bit, there should be one. Instead, the capital will arrive well past lunchtime.”

“It’s a bit tight. Breakfast is skipped anyway, so shall we leave at dawn?”

“That way, I’ll be able to arrive around lunchtime. Is the young lady all right?”

A man asking carefully. I smiled and nodded.

“You’re going to bed early today, so you’ll wake up early. Even if you’re angry, it’s okay because I’ll take it.”

“Then let’s start at 5 o’clock. The village where the security guard is located is not far from here, but considering the time, I think we should leave around that time.”

“Yes, I understand. But are you all right?”

“What do you mean?”

“You must have had a hard time driving the carriage all day, but you didn’t even get a good rest…”

It’s hard to drive a car all day long. Driving a horse and carriage, which are not even vehicles, would have increased the fatigue, but not less. Maybe he saw my concern, and he stroked my hair and smiled.

“Heh heh. It’s okay. There are tips on how to drive a carriage. I’ll teach you some tips on pulling a carriage during vacation.”

“Yes, thank you. Then rest in peace.”

The old man waved his hand as he went to his room. Seeing that, I went into the room and carefully lay down next to him so as not to wake the lady.

A girl who sleeps soundly with her back turned to the side I was lying on. I was relieved to see the mice and birds sleeping without knowing. I put a little more blanket on it and I put my eyes on it.

When I woke up around 4:00 in the morning, there was a lady next to me. Around 11 o’clock, the person who had been apart was clinging to him like a stick this time.

‘They will talk a lot in their sleep.’

Did your sleep talking get worse while I was away… I called the lady and tried to wake her up.

“Ugh…Five minutes…More…”

I didn’t know how to hear the phrase ‘just 5 minutes’ from a young lady who always wakes up a sleeping person. He must have been so sleepy that he had no choice but to wait for 5 minutes before waking him up because his strong and locked voice suited him.

“My lady, you need to get up.”

“Hmm…What time is it?”

“It’s just past four.”

“…Why did you wake up so soon?”

A disgruntled look stung me. I have to deal with it… It’s the path I chose. You have to endure it with evil…

“If you go early, you can leisurely buy clothes with the lady, right? If the lady likes some clothes and they don’t fit, you might have to get them repaired, so go ahead and prepare them.”

“That’s true…But isn’t it too fast? I’m still sleepy…”

To hear that the person who has been sleeping since 7 o’clock is still sleepy… I guess the saying that beauty is a sleeper is true.

“Can I offer you a knee so that you can sleep comfortably in the carriage? Also, you haven’t eaten anything since last night. You should eat something to gain strength.”

“…Okay. I’ll wash up and get ready.”

The lady was still sleepy. She staggered as she made her way to the bathroom. As I changed into my clothes again, I packed my things and put them in the luggage compartment in advance. It seemed like the head of the thieves in the compartment was saying something, but I ignored it and put the luggage on top of the guy and closed it.

When I came up with my luggage, the lady came out of the bathroom and was sitting in front of the mirror. He wanted to touch his dry-looking hair to see when he had dried it too.

“What are you doing? Come here and tie my hair up.”

Yes, let’s follow the headquarters. “Have you read my mind?” He hurriedly stood behind the girl and touched her hair.

“How can I tie it?”

“…Tie it in the shape you want.”

She thought a little, then pulled the hair from the side of her head to the back of her head and tied it up into a half ponytail. Since it is a hair style with a strong sense of calm, the look of an innocent young lady was created.

“How are you?”

“It’s ok. Come to think of it, I think I entrusted it for the first time today. Who did you learn from?”

“I learned from Mr. Roland. He said he wanted to learn from the haircuts that the lady had done before, so she kindly taught me. I did it with my own hair every day, but today, for the first time, it looks much better and prettier.”

“I see.”

A lady staring at my face in the mirror. She thought she might have buried something, so I checked my face in the mirror.

“Looks like we’re done. Let’s go.”

Before I could check her face, the lady got up and left the room. As she followed the lady out of the inn, Uncle Gillian was checking the condition of the horse and carriage. She first took the young lady into her carriage and helped her.

As he turned on the luminous crystal attached to the front of the wagon, the old man showed off a smile like a skilled veteran and opened the map.

“If you go all the way down the foot of this mountain, you will come to a small village called Rotonev. As far as I remember, the Imperial Security Guard is set up, and the lack of personnel is requested by the Adventurer’s Guild. Here and in the heart of the capital. I think it’ll be fine since it’s located in the .”

“Yes, please.”

We left Capella Village just before sunrise, under the blue sky of dawn.

“Eup Eup”

“Didn’t you hear a voice behind you?”

“You must have heard wrong, hahahaha.”

“…Is that so?”

With an uninvited guest in the luggage compartment.
