Marquis' Express Butler

“Oh! You're finally awake! Wake up! ”

Goddamn truck...

Then what's all this noise?

The young man's voice echoes. I had a headache that caused me to moan. I woke up, but it was hard to say anything.

But I opened my eyes with frowning arrogance.

“God! Thank you. Thank you so much!”

What the hell?

A stranger was caught in sight. A young man with blue eyes with brown hair. He was someone I don't remember. Besides, where am I?

No way...... Is it a low approval?

“Thank God! When I heard you fell off the balcony cleaning, how surprised did you think you'd be? What the hell did you do? Did you fall? ”

Cleaning? This is some creative shit.

I refreshed my memory for a moment.

I was sitting in a cab in front of the salon, driving the Advisor home, knocked unconscious by a truck. He would have died instantly. I'm not the one who fell while cleaning.

Wait, I'm not feeling well.

What is this mysterious body? It wasn't my trademark, my fluffy forearm.

Besides, what's with this exotic guy and this shabby room?

A word that finally came out.

“Who are you?”

The opponent must have been quite shocked. The open mouth does not shut for a moment.

“Don't you remember? This is bad. I'm Lohan. Lohan, your butler's apprentice motivation! ”

“Apprentice butler… motivation? ”

“Yes, and he's your best friend. You don't even remember where you're from, do you? ”

I don't remember anything.

The man who describes himself as Lohan looks at me frustrated. I can't help it. You really don't know him?

It's best to keep them awake for a while.

For a moment, I ignored the young man in front of me and looked around.

It's full of all sorts of strange things.

The old wall is made of wood, and a lantern, not a fluorescent lamp, gives off a subtle glow. Modern civilizations could not find a trace of it.

I can assure you this is not a hospital.

What the hell is going on?

No matter how much I thought about it, it was hard to get a sense. I remember getting hit by a truck.

Rather, I forcefully pulled out my memory, and the seizure headache came. I put my hand on my forehead.

“Dylan, are you okay? I think you have a head injury. Grow more when you get sick. I've got to tell these people the good news. ”

“…… Dylan? ”

“It's your name. Don't you remember that, too? Ha, that's really bad. ”

It's not that I don't remember. My name is Soo-hyun Kim, not Dylan.

“No. My name is……. ”

“Enough! Stop talking and get some rest. I'll report to Yanroff right away. ”

So the young man opened the door and went out. The unknown made things more complicated in my head.

Was that a reincarnation truck?

My logical brain suggested that possibility.

I pinched my cheeks and couldn't help but accept this reality. Clear pain was telling me it wasn't a dream.

And after a while, Lohan brings someone inside.

I noticed the man.

A middle-aged man in a nice tuxedo in a monocle. He wears white gloves on his hands. Charisma is no joke to me. I feel like I would have done it when I was young.

“You don't look so good. Can you tell? ”

“Yes.”

I forced myself up slightly. Lohan helps me. Perhaps this middle-aged man is a man by the name of Janrov.

“I'm sorry this happened first. I want to know about the accident. No witnesses. ”

“I don't... remember. ”

“Really?"

Yanlov, who swept his gorgeous beard, began to look everywhere at me.

“The doctor said that if you have a head injury, you might not remember it for a while, so rest for a while. Your apprenticeship is suspended. We'll see how it goes or we'll decide when it's over. Your body is your own protection, so watch out. ”

Janroff goes outside, saying that.

I felt like I was a pretty tough guy. I'm sorry I got hurt, but even that was my responsibility.

I didn't feel so good.

But it was important to understand and accept the current situation.

From what I hear, I seem to be waking up in this mansion undergoing a butler apprenticeship. You're literally going through a process to become a butler.

But first you need to know why I woke up from someone else's body.

Maybe it's a dream, maybe something that science can't explain.

But the dream was so vivid, I can't explain what science can't explain. Am I not just a slave to science?

Let's keep an eye on the situation for a while.

By the way...... If I stop here, where will I go?

When I thought about it, my body snapped up as if the switch was on. At the same time, there was an uproar.

“Grrrgh!"

A huge headache has begun.

At that moment, I began to see visions like fragments. It was a memory engraved on this body.

A young man came to me while I was wiping the window. I don't know why, but as he pushes hard, his body shifts, and his body falls off the ledge.

What, this wasn't an accident?

It was the moment when "accident" became "incident." The scene that fell from the balcony on the third floor while cleaning.

I had to wait a long time to interpret that amazing memory.

“Hey, you okay? ”

Lohan asked anxiously. I was shaking my head. To get rid of thoughts.

“Get some rest. I'll come back later. Don't hold back what Janlov said. You'll be able to stay here for sure. Don't give up on your dreams! ”

Was the butler dreaming?

Anyway, I felt good about him. I saw an attitude of trusting and caring about me. I nodded and relieved him.

Several people came after Rohan left.

I don't know the name, but the way I talk and act, it was clear that I was a person higher than myself.

I could hear so many stories from them. And I couldn't help but admit it. I was reincarnated into someone else's body, not dead.

I still can't believe it. Rebirth?

More like possession than reincarnation.

Nevertheless, the rebirth was because I did not feel the soul of Dylan. There is nothing strange about being reborn.

We have no choice but to accept it. There was no way to go back to the way things were, and we didn't know why this was happening.

Then it's easier to admit it cool.

Let's say it's a real virtual reality game.

I was relieved to think I had a new opportunity. It's better than dying.

But there was something on the other hand that bothered me.

The image of the young man who pushed me, or rather, the owner of this body, out of the balcony with an evil smile.

Why did he tell me to shove myself to death?

Thanks to this, I was resting comfortably and couldn't catch my breath.

* * *

While I was resting for a moment, Rohan came to me. I was sweating on my forehead.

“Dear Patient, How are you feeling? ”

“It's okay.”

I fell three stories, but I was fine without any broken places. When I opened my eyes, I was a little sore, but everything was normal now.

No, there was one weird part, to be exact.

The heart.

It doesn't hurt. I feel something strange.

Whenever it thumps, the unknown power shivers. My body was itchy. It wasn't because of the skin disease. Every time my heart pumps, I feel the urge to spill the energy.

Did he have any abilities when he came into his new body? As a person who liked games and novels, I had no choice but to think about it.

“Do you remember anything else? ”

“Not yet.”

“Don't rush it. After some recovery, the memories will come back. Let's just think of it as a good thing we saved our lives. ”

I nodded.

My memory was intact, but for a while I decided to act as a patient with amnesia. There are many convenient uses for memory problems.

If the memory doesn't come back intact, very few people will find it strange to act like you were born as someone else.

“But how did you get to know me? ”

“This is upsetting. You're from the same town, right? So was Arwen. The three of us were childhood friends. ”

I was very happy to hear that you are a childhood friend. At least you're on my side.

“Who's Arwen? ”

“I have a servant friend here. I'll be back in about dinner. It's a busy day. ”

I nodded. And when Lohan came, he asked me a question he thought I had to ask.

“Is there somewhere I can get warmed up? A place to train. ”

“There is one training ground, though. Then why?”

“I feel frustrated just lying there. ”

Rohan looks at the patient and asks if that's what he wants to do. A friend of mine fell from the third floor, though. If he's looking for a training ground, I'll try to stop him first.

“I just want to get some air. You're frustrated just lying there. ”

“Can you get up? ”

“Of course.”

Rohan was a little surprised that he woke up better than he thought.

“I don't know if this is going to be okay. I don't know if I should take him out and get in trouble. ”

“I know my body best. ”

“Fine! Let's go for a ride in the wind. We have about an hour. ”

So I followed Lohan to the training ground behind the mansion.

Fortunately, there was no one at the training ground. It wasn't that big, and there were about ten people who could easily unwind.

“Is this place available to butlers as well? ”

I didn't want to get caught snooping around the training ground for no reason.

“Relax. This is a training ground for butlers apprentices. Chamberlain's health is important, so you'll have to come and train. I have a fitness class for the promotion exam. ”

“I see.”

“Every morning I used to work out here with you, dragging you to sleep late.... ”

While Lohan was immersed for a moment, I took another look at the facility. There were several exercise utensils, wooden swords, and sandbags.

According to the story, the Butler says martial arts is important as well as physical strength. It's because you have to listen to the factors and you don't know what will happen.

I stood in front of a sandbag for a while.

A tough hide filled with sand. Once I touched it with my hands, I closed my eyes and focused on the mysterious power that was hanging over my chest.

Whoo-hoo!

As expected, I was able to control that mysterious power on my own terms.

I focused that power with my right hand, and I punched hard.

Phew!

An amazing thing happened.

That tough, hard sandbag burst out of the sand without overcoming my power. Lohan, who was watching, was naturally surprised.

“Well, what is it? What the hell did you do? ”

“I don't know. It must have been torn because of the old sandbag. ”

“Huh……. ”

I shrugged, pretending not to know. Even Rohan didn't doubt it anymore because it looked like a normal fist.

After all, I've tested my power at the training ground.

The more you use your strength, the smaller the amount becomes, but you feel it filling up gradually as you take a break. I think we should test how much power we can use while watching more.

This time it's wooden sword.

Whee!

Wheelic!

The wooden sword also moved coolly. I was able to perfect the trajectory I wanted. It feels like I've become a great swordsman.

Can't we use magic or something?

But I couldn't find a way. The strength of the fist or the strength of the wooden sword was exhausted. The force seemed to work only with physical mediators.

Maybe there's no way. Like all riddles, I haven't figured it out yet.

“Hey, Dylan. I have to get back. It's shift time. ”

“Got it.”

I put the wooden sword back where I found it, leaving my regrets behind. I left it there with Rohan. We have to test our strength in the gaps ahead.

After work, some apprentice butlers walk over here to train. Simply greeting them, Lohan told me.

“You seem different. ”

“What?”

“You said you didn't like swordsmanship before, but it's weird that the guy who didn't go near the wooden sword is wielding it. I think he's changed a lot. ”

“So, you don't like it? ”

“It's not like that! Rather, it looks refreshing now. I was too shy before. ”

Were you shy?

Suddenly, I was curious about Dylan's reputation. Earlier, when people came to look at me, I felt that it was not very favorable.

What the hell was he like?

Fortunately, the opportunity to answer that question came sooner than I expected.
