Invicinble Colorless Butler-Chapter 215 8

After returning to the castle of the Cirlus Kingdom, the first thing Ziel did was to meet Kalya, Princess Freya, and Princess Aishia. He felt he owed them a lot of explanation since he had told Clara about his past and his meeting with Azalia.

For some reason, Lilith had been following him ever since returning from Azalia's floating castle. But when Ziel asked why she only replied that she also wanted to meet Kalya and the other girls. Before Ziel looked for Kalya, he first checked the condition of Clara, Kyouka, and Princess Iris. Ziel quietly entered their room, and he saw Clara and the other two girls still asleep. Then Ziel left the room quietly so as not to wake the three girls.

Ziel had contacted Kalya through the communication brooch to inquire about her current location right after she and Lilith returned to the Cirlus Kingdom castle. Kalya quickly answered and informed him that she was in the garden behind the castle drinking tea while enjoying the sea view.

After Ziel arrived at the garden behind the castle, Kalya was not alone. Apart from having Princess Freya and Princess Aishia accompanying him, Princess Cordelia also sat among them. Ziel raised his eyebrows when he saw the girl with them. He didn't know what Princess Cordelia was planning to do this time.

"Ziel!" Princess Aishia quickly stood up from her seat and walked over to Ziel after noticing his appearance. Kalya and the other two girls also turned their eyes towards Ziel after hearing her shout. After Ziel and Lilith sat down on one of the chairs at the table, he immediately received a question from Kalya.

"You came with Lilith?" Kalya smiled at Ziel and then turned her gaze to Lilith. When she saw Lilith's face, she felt a little curious.

"Has something good happened to you?" Kalya asked Lilith. Princess Freya and Princess Aishia also looked at her after hearing the suspicious tone of Kalya's question. Lilith tried to remain calm under the gazes of the girls.

"Hmm? I don't think so. Everything went as usual." Lilith pondered for a while before answering Kalya's question.

"Hee...is that so? The expression on your face looks better than in the past week. No, I think this is your best expression since entering the academy." Kalya did not ask Lilith further because she felt that Lilith was also unaware of her situation.

"Is that true? I feel like nothing has changed in my face?" Lilith took out a mirror from her space storage and looked at her face. She felt that her expression was still the same as she always was.

"You are right. At first, I didn't see it either. But after I took a closer look, I realized that you currently seem free. It's like the burden you've been carrying on your shoulders all this time has disappeared." Kalya smiled in response to Lilith's question.

"Hmm... you're right. it looks the same at first glance, but you look slightly different right now." Princess Freya nodded in agreement with Kalya's words.

<br/>"So, where have you been going? I've contacted you via the communications brooch, but you're out of range. Did you happen to run into Lilith on the way here, or did you go with her before?" Kalya asked Ziel calmly. Even so, her tone sounded like she was interrogating.

"Did you go to a place very far from the Cirlus Kingdom? You should have told us first so we wouldn't have to go around the castle to find you." Princess Freya pouted and added another question before Ziel could answer Kalya's question.

"I'm sorry if I made you worry. But you should know that I'll be fine wherever I am. Besides, let me answer your questions one by one. It will be difficult for me to answer if you ask many questions at once." Ziel looked at Kalya, Princess Freya, and finally at Princess Aishia. Although she was silent, Ziel knew that Princess Aishia also wanted to ask something. The three girls nodded except for Princess Cordelia, who had been quiet ever since Ziel came.

"I just came back from my old acquaintance's place. The location was far from the Cirlus Kingdom, so the communication brooch didn't work. I went to that place together with Lilith. Not by coincidence, but because I did intend to invite her to accompany me." Ziel answered the girls' questions one by one. He actually wanted to tell them about what had happened to Clara, Princess Iris, and Kyouka. But since Princess Cordelia was in that place, he put it off and would explain it to them another time.

"Hmm... you did it on purpose? Does that mean the place you went to is related to Lilith?" Kalya quickly understood the reason Ziel took Lilith to Azalia's place.

"You are right. An old acquaintance of Ziel's is of the same race as me. That's why he took me with him." The one who answered Kalya's question was not Ziel but Lilith.

"Have the same race as you?" Kalya frowned upon hearing Lilith's answer, whereas Princess Freya was surprised. Only the two of them knew what race Lilith was from. In other words, Ziel had other acquaintances from the divine race besides Lilith.

Meanwhile, Princess Cordelia and Princess Aishia were confused by Kalya and Princess Freya's response. The two girls thought that Lilith's race was human or demon based on her appearance, which shouldn't make Kalya and Princess Freya react like that since both races were common in the Clorius continent.

"What race are you, Lilith?" Princess Aishia subconsciously asked out of curiosity.

"It is..." Lilith hesitated to answer the question. Then she glanced at Ziel for his opinion. Lilith saw Ziel shaking his head.

"I am a mix between a human and a demon." Lilith was forced to give a false answer to Princess Aishia. She had to provide her with the most reasonable answer for now.

"Ooh…no wonder you have the hair color of the demon race but don't have horns on your head." Princess Aishia nodded and immediately believed Lilith's answer. Princess Cordelia also had the same thoughts as her.

Princess Freya and Kalya looked at each other after hearing Lilith's answer. They had seen Lilith glance secretly at Ziel before answering the question. The two girls guessed that Ziel would not allow Lilith to reveal her identity as a divine race in front of Princess Cordelia.

"By the way… why did you two get together with Princess Cordelia? Shouldn't he be dealing with the problems of the Cirlus Kingdom's soldiers who died on that island?" Ziel looked at Princess Cordelia. Kalya and the other girls seemed to have difficulty answering Ziel's question. On the other hand, Princess Cordelia trembled after hearing Ziel ask why she was with the girls at this time.

"I… I want to apologize for my words and actions at that time to the girls, especially to you." Princess Cordelia squeezed the words out of her mouth. He seemed to have discussed it with Kalya and the other girls before Ziel came.

"I have already forgiven you. But even so, that doesn't mean I'll take back the slave seal I instilled in you and your father." Ziel responded indifferently.

"I understand. I never expected you to do that either." Princess Cordelia sighed in relief after hearing Ziel's answer.

"Like I said, right? Ziel wouldn't mind that kind of thing. But please don't do it again." Kalya smiled warmly at Princess Cordelia, but her voice grew cold at the last sentence.

"I won't repeat it. But please don't be so cold to me." Princess Cordelia smiled apologetically.

Princess Freya and Princess Aishia were shocked to see Princess Cordelia's reaction. She looked like a brave girl on the battlefield, but she now looked like an ordinary girl. Kalya smiled and turned her gaze to Ziel.

"Isn't there something you wanted to talk to us about, Ziel?" Kalya said confidently. She seemed to know the purpose of Ziel coming to meet them.

"Eh? Is that so, Ziel? Did something happen?" Princess Freya felt one step slower than Kalya. But she quickly put that thought aside because she knew that usually, Ziel would say something important when he took the initiative to start a conversation. That's why Princess Freya wanted to focus on listening to Ziel.

"You are right. But before that… is there anything you want to ask, Aishia?" Ziel looked at Princess Aishia, who seemed to be holding back from asking the question in her mind.

"Oh, nothing. I don't have anything I want to ask you." Princess Aishia frantically shook her head and denied Ziel's words.

"Aishia, I have known you since childhood. You don't have to hold back when you're around us. Haven't we indirectly become like family? Isn't that so, sis Kalya?" Princess Freya held Princess Aishia's hand next to hers, then she glanced at Kalya and winked coquettishly.

"She's right. You don't have to hold back when you're around us." Kalya smiled sincerely at Princess Aishia. Their treatment made Princess Aishia's heart warm.

"Freya, miss Kalya…" Princess Freya's eyes became wet. She was touched by the two girls' sincere words.

At first, Princess Aishia felt awkward about their relationship because the three of them liked the same guy. She might be able to act casually toward Princess Freya since she was her childhood friend.

But it's a different story with Kalya because they have a relatively significant age difference. Princess Aishia is afraid of saying the wrong thing in front of her and making Kalya hate her. If that happened, Ziel would probably keep his distance from her, and Princess Aishia's heart would break.

But that was only a shadow of her fear. In reality, Princess Freya and Kalya happily accepted her and already considered her as their sister. fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m

"So, what exactly do you want to ask?" Ziel involuntarily smiled upon seeing the closeness of the three of them but quickly returned to his emotionless face. 𝘧𝗿ee𝚠𝙚𝙗𝑛o𝚟𝐞l.𝐜૦𝗺

"That is… I accidentally saw you enter Clara's room this morning. did something happen to her?" Princess Aishia asked with a worried face.

Princess Aishia feels that way because Princess Aishia has gotten closer to Clara in the past week. Since Clara found out that Princess Aishia was Ziel's former master's older sister, they often went out. When they were alone, they usually talked about Ziel. They share stories about the past and present Ziel. Because of that, Princess Aishia felt a particular affinity with her.

"Coincidentally, the answer to your question is something I wanted to talk to you about." Ziel looked one by one at the faces of the girls in front of him, then stopped at Princess Cordelia.

"Hmm… if this is an important matter, I will leave this place." Princess Cordelia reluctantly stood up and intended to leave the table.

"I never said you shouldn't hear it. Since Leya and the others don't mind your presence, you may remain seated and listen. You won't be able to divulge what you've heard here anyway. Unless you want to feel excruciating pain from the punishment of the slave seal." Ziel stopped Princess Cordelia as none of the girls voiced their objections to him. It seemed their relationship had improved without Ziel knowing.

"Thank you." Princess Cordelia smiled with pleasure. She felt that she had become a part of that group of girls. Princess Cordelia did not have many friends her age in the Cirlus Kingdom due to her talent and position as a general. But with Kalya and the girls, she feels free and can be an ordinary girl. Princess Cordelia sat back in her chair and waited for Ziel to start speaking.

"I came to Miss Clara's room this morning to..." Ziel told the chronology of what happened this morning. It started with the reason he came to Clara's room and found out that Clara, Princess Iris, and Kyouka were the reincarnations of her dead friend. He also explained the current state of the three girls. On that occasion, Ziel also told the whole story of his past to the girls at the table.

Princess Freya and the other girls couldn't help but fall silent after hearing Ziel's absurd story. Even Kalya and Lilith were still shocked after hearing the whole story about Ziel's past. They thought that they knew Ziel better than the other girls, but they were wrong.

"Is everything you said true?" Princess Cordelia subconsciously asked because she couldn't believe Ziel's story.

"Ziel would never lie to us. There's no point in him doing that to us anyway because whatever he says, we'll believe him." Kalya smiles like a blooming flower. She seemed to have given her complete trust to Ziel.

Princess Cordelia was speechless when she heard Kalya's statement. In her eyes, Kalya's blind trust in Ziel was like adoration. She became even more shocked after seeing the other girls nod in agreement with those words.
