Marquis' Express Butler

225. My Confucius has changed (1)

The voice is urgent, but there is no particular commotion.

I've been using Mana to lift my spirits ever since I entered the palace. If someone had approached this place for treachery, they would have found out sooner than Thompson.

Even if it seems clumsy on the outside, I take good care of my spirituality and the people around me.

“What's going on? ”

“What should I do if a messenger comes from the Mainland? ”

Ah, there's a messenger.

Thompson is stunning. If it was the Mainlanders, they'd be terrified of people coming out of there. I understand it's a rural village.

“Relax. It's your job to keep your guests company. Bring it in.”

“Oh, I see. ”

Thompson, who swallowed his saliva, went out again. Seeing you sweating so hard, I feel like I'm a bit overwhelmed.

There's no rush. Just like Wolf and Anna did, Thompson wants to adapt here and grow up to be a good talent.

Because they're pretty good grades for helping me.

Ordinary people are 1-star, and slightly extraordinary people are 2-star. But these young guys are coming back and forth from 3-star. Anna was four, and the other two were three.

In other words, if the age is ripe and the experience underpins it, it can grow into a great talent.

I'm the indigenous people who know this town best anyway, and if you're going to raise it, writing it next to me is not bad.

“Sir Dylan. ”

“Yes. What's going on? ”

The messenger was a strong soldier. He was lightly armed and had a precious letter in his hand.

He took the ordinance.

“Greetings. I am a messenger from Mainland. Confucius Hamel asked me to give him an urgent message. ”

“Really? Give it to me. ”

I took the letter and opened the envelope. And I immediately checked the contents. If it's an urgent matter, it's either one of them. Either Confucius Kaien has been quarrelling, or news has come from the royal family.

“You got in touch sooner than I expected. ”

Fortunately, the letter contained the latter. A letter from Princess Ofelia has arrived from the royal province, omitting any formalities and returning to Adeline territory as soon as possible.

If you come to Princess Ofelia from a clean slate, then the best scenario we have planned will be the one.

“Did you want a reply? ”

“No, you said all you had to do was deliver the news. ”

“Well done.”

The messenger relaxes. In fact, the content itself is not that urgent, but you must be very nervous because it was done by Confucius Hamel and no one else.

I put the letter down on one side and got up from my seat.

“You must be exhausted coming here without rest, fill your belly and take the night off. ”

“Oh, no. I'm fine.”

“It's better to take it when the boss gives it to you. Don't be afraid to eat. You'll have to rest for a day to run well anyway. ”

“Thank you."

I gave the messenger the location of the restaurant and went straight up to the second floor. To inform the person who sent the letter to Ofelia.

She was sitting at her desk, quietly reading a book.

He had a thin cardigan on his shoulder, and Lu was lying comfortably on his blanket knees. It's just a fireplace. It would be perfect.

“What's going on? I thought you had a visitor. ”

“You heard the words. Confucius Hamel has sent a messenger. ”

I gave her the letter. Sapiella's expression was cleared when she read the letter seriously.

“Good...... things are going well, aren't they? ”

“The first button is a good fit. Thanks to you, I was able to get good news. Thank you again. ”

“Stop saying thank you. Between us.”

“Yes?”

I thought I heard it wrong. But Sapiella turned her gaze slightly red, and I think I heard her right. I'm excited for you.

“When I return from scouting the camp, it will be a little late, so I will ask you to prepare yourself first. ”

“I'll do that. I'm inviting you in my name, so I'll send a messenger myself. ”

“Then please. ”

She immediately picked up her stationery and began writing letters. After a few moments of pouring the wax into the seal, Sapiella hands me the letter.

“Tell my father. Now that I've outlined the situation, you'll understand. He asked me to let Hamel and I go out. Is that okay?"

“Wise choice. I know this is a bit overwhelming, but please take care of what I've asked you to do before. ”

“I'll try that. ”

I bowed my head and went outside.

* * *

A week later, we returned to the castle of Adelina after an ambush.

There were no attacks or accidents. It was time for the remnants of the Dark Lord to light their eyes and wander around, but I was a little bored without any news.

I need you to finish your busy work and go hunting soon.

What they want now is not to cause any conflict with the Adeline family. Since the chief is dead, he will surely seek revenge.

If you want to do that, you can write a stunning scenario that will destroy your enemies in reverse.

Anyway, as soon as I unpacked the castle, I felt that something had changed significantly.

I am a butler in charge of the family affairs. You can see how the shamans flock around, and what stories the butlers and maids tell. I have a reliable source.

“Are you sure?”

“Still! Everyone believes you're being nice, but it's true that Confucius Hamel has become a new man. According to the victim's mother, it's pretty gross. ”

“You don't have to say the last word. What are you gonna do if someone hears you? ”

“Don't tell me you're picking on me. ”

“Don't you know they catch people? It's time to take good care of your neck. You know what I'm saying? It's not fair to die before you become a proper butler. ”

“I know. ”

Rohan reported in detail what happened at the mansion while I was away.

There were two big things. Confucius Hamel became a new man. He was a kind, compassionate and wonderful man who kept his principles carefully.

Of course, the people of the family who saw him couldn't help but be frightened. There are rumors that he may be crazy, but if he's right and sincere and crazy, you might want to be crazy, too.

Above all, the movements of the shamans stand out.

Recently, Confucius Hamel has risen. I built a good foundation of support while fulfilling the mission of the envoy in the royal province. That's why the power seems to have erupted because of the massive absorption of hypocrites who were neutral.

You'd better hear it from Confucius Hamel.

As rumors began to circulate that Mathis was backing Confucius Hamel, the hearts of the pretenders who had adhered to Confucius Kaien, the first.

All of these things happened at once, like a chain reaction, and the chaos became more and more severe. Eventually, the irresistible Kaien openly showed hostility to Confucius Hamel.

Rohan said.

“Honestly, it wouldn't be weird if Duke Cain pulled a knife and stabbed him right now. That's why everyone's nervous. I don't know when there's gonna be a bloodbath. ”

“Bloodlust.... ”

It's what I and Hamel are most worried about. After all, he is casting the elite Knights of the Golden Lion like a pawn.

There are a few knights of Confucius Hamel for Lord Paramella, but they are neither worthy nor worthy.

How well does the balance of freezing force fit with me?

It is still very unlikely that Confucius Kaien will pull out his sword.

“It's too risky for that. If you kill your kin, you may not have a successor. Maybe someone in the room will hook up. ”

“Hmm... … So there's no scenario where the Sapiella Infant will inherit?" ”

“That's impossible. ”

“Why not? I thought you said there were a few queens in the kingdom of Alfrost? ”

“Someone who needs to take his place. If someone doesn't want to sit down, his life will be unhappy. I don't want her to be unhappy. ”

“Here comes the philosophy. ”

“There's nothing more to talk about, is there? ”

Rohan shrugs.

“Better to hear the rest from the Confucian himself. Go ahead. He'll be waiting for you. I'll gather rumors among the butlers. ”

“Take good care of her. ”

I raise my hand and walk out of Rohan's room. And I asked him where Hamel was. He said he was taking a walk in the garden after meeting the ghosts.

“Sir Dylan. Good to see you. ”

I was walking hard in the hallway, and I met Janroff, the high priest. I was in a hurry, but the chairman talked to me, so I'm going to have to pause.

“I hear you played a decisive role in the decision of the princess's quest this time. You're very well-rounded. I think I'll be good at politics. ”

Is that what this is about?

Apparently, Confucius Hamel and Sapiella are trying to push me out of the family. Well, it's good for them when I grow up.

“If you put the wind in like that, you might really leave for the royal route. ”

“Haha. Are you threatening me now? ”

“No way.”

Janroff looks at me as if I were something else. The last few months will feel like a dream. The failing students have grown so much.

“I don't think it's quite ready yet, but I'd like to get ready with you as soon as possible. I'm sure you're familiar with the taste and propensity of the princess. ”

“The queen is fine, but I need to deal with Prince Hamel. You're welcome to join us for dinner. ”

“Of course. I'll see you tonight. ”

“Take a look. ”

I left the castle and headed to the garden. The knights start to see each other, and I see a beautiful woman and Prince Hamel walking through the garden.

The beautiful woman was Elona. He must have stopped by the castle when he heard I was here.

“It's been a long time. Confucius, you were right. ”

“Oh, Lord Dylan. I'm sorry I couldn't make it out. You don't have very few balls. Forgive me.”

“ ……. ”

How can a person be so different?

The voice of Confucius Hamel passed by my ears like a warm spring breeze melting the flesh ice. Besides, there's something about that smile. Rather, it was me, not Janrov, who felt like a dream.

What a gentleman he was. Maybe Prince Kaien should be a little nervous.

Confucius Hamel picked a flower next to him and gave it to Eluna.

“It is a pleasure to spend time with a beautiful lady, but I need to speak with Lord Dylan for a moment. Miss Eluna. I'll see you later. ”

“Yes, Confucius. ”

I greeted Eluna with my eyes and moved to Prince Hamel's office.

Now Lord Paramella has always stood by him. Not only that, there were two additional knights stationed in the Oval Office.

“Did something happen while I was gone? It's heavily guarded.”

“Something happened. I told my father that an unknown shadow was targeting me at night, and this happened. ”

And all the knights are on the side of Confucius Hammer?

“Could it be...... that the Duke is up to something? ”

“Decorated? Hmm, Lord Dylan. I just want to point out that that's very ambiguous. Does that matter now? All I have to find is Scylla and Justice. ”

Seeing Princess Hamel's smiling face, it looks like there's already a clay fight. I am already worried that I will be able to receive the princess properly.

But it doesn't matter.

The moment the princess visits, there will be a new turning point ahead of us.
