Invicinble Colorless Butler-Chapter 42 - 5

Beatrix narrowed her eyes looking at Ziel. She briefly felt a strange feeling in the man she saw.

"He's Clara's new butler. His name is Ken Nijisaki. He just started work today. Is there a problem?" Duke Hazell was confused because Beatrix suddenly asked about Ziel.

"Hee... Butler huh?" Beatrix just smiled a little in response.

(Is it just me? But I sure feel that aura from this man)

Beatrix muttered in her heart.. Because the aura of terror she felt was truly only an instant. So she couldn't properly confirm who the aura was coming from.

"Okay, how about we start the practice today Aunt Beatrix?" Clara's words bring Beatrix back to reality.

"Ahh...yes. Let's start right now. Where can we start?" Beatrix shook her head to get rid of what she was thinking earlier. Maybe the previous thing was just a feeling. How could a young servant possess the power that could make a magic king shudder with fear?

"How about in the back garden? It's spacious and cool. Perfect for practicing magic." Eleanor gave her suggestion.

"Okay." Beatrix nodded in agreement at her suggestion.

They all entered the mansion and headed to the back garden. On the way, Beatrix occasionally looks back to look at Ziel. Ziel who noticed it only nodded slightly.

***

The back garden of Duke Castilene's mansion was vast. Flowers and trees are planted around it to feel cool and look beautiful. In addition, there is also a place to practicing swords or magic and also relax while drinking tea and enjoying the view. Beatrix is ??currently teaching Clara about magic. It was just the two of them because Duke Hazell and his wife had other things to do.

"Please enjoy the tea my lady, Mrs. Beatrix." Ziel served tea to both of them.

"Thanks, Ken." Clara immediately tasted the tea. It was the first time she had enjoyed Ken's tea.

"Wow... The taste of this tea is delicious and it smells very good. This is the first time I've tasted tea like this. Did you make it yourself Ken?" Clara widened her eyes after tasting Ken's tea. Then she continued to sip her tea.

"Yes, I made it myself." Ken just nodded slightly.

"Is it that good?" Beatrix sipped her tea, and her reaction was the same as Clara's. At first, she thought that Clara's reaction was a bit too much. But it turned out to be a really good tea.

"Amazing... How do you make tea to be this good?" Beatrix asked Ziel curiously. Because she is also a tea connoisseur so she wants to know the secret.

"I made it the usual way my parents taught me." Ziel said half truthfully. Because the tea brewing that Ziel does uses mana in it.

"Next time you have to show it to me." Beatrix felt the need to learn how to make tea from Ziel.

"Fine if I have time. If there's nothing else I'll go first." Ziel immediately left the place. But Beatrix's voice stopped him.

"May I know where you come from? And why did you choose to be a servant?" Beatrix still wants to confirm her feelings beforehand.

"I come from a small village on the edge of the forest. I became a servant because it was a skill I learned from my parents who were former noble servants." Ziel gave the same answer that he gave to Duke Hazell.

"Is that so?" Beatrix still has doubts about Ziel's words.

"What's wrong aunt Beatrix?" Clara who heard their exchange became curious.

"Oh, nothing." Beatrix shook his head smiling.

"Okay, then I'll go first." Ziel immediately left the place. But he could feel Beatrix's gaze from behind him.

It was past midnight, at Duke Hazell's mansion. Ziel who was sleeping in his room suddenly opened his eyes. He woke up again in the middle of the night and the reason was the same as before.

"Wasn't it just yesterday that they attacked the mansion? And tonight they attacked again. Looks like they're in a hurry." When Ziel was about to get up and face them. He felt a sign that was already moving towards it.

"Then I'll leave that to Mrs. Beatrix." Ken closes his eyes and goes back to sleep.

***

Beatrix awoke from her slumber as she felt the barrier she had put up in Duke Hazell's mansion being passed by an intruder. In her hand, she held a wand with a purple crystal on it. Then she quickly exited her room and headed for the front gate of Duke Hazell's residence. There she saw dozens of people wearing black clothes.

"Looks like the current Duke Hazell has a dangerous enemy." Beatrix sighed heavily. Because the dozens of people in front of her were all masters. And 3 of them are grandmasters.

"Immediately kill the woman and complete our mission. This time must be successful. Don't let our clients be disappointed because we have failed 2 times!" The leader who was a sword grandmaster gave orders to his subordinates.

6 men in black surrounded Beatrix. They are masters consisting of 3 mages and 3 knights. Meanwhile, the 3 grandmasters that Beatrix previously saw, currently have only 1 person in front of her.

"Damn! They sneaked in!!" Beatrix tries to return to the mansion but she is surrounded by a man in black.

"Where are you going!? I won't let you go back." The sword grandmaster suddenly came behind Beatrix and slashed his sword.

Before the sword slash hit her back, suddenly a mirror-like shield appeared resisting the attack. Not resisting but reflecting the slash of the sword.

"Kugh…" The sword grandmaster immediately dodged the slash of the sword that turned at him.

[Glacier Breath]

A burst of cold air froze the people in black little by little.

"Mage!! Now is the time!!" The sword grandmaster shouted. 3 mages appear around Beatrix from 3 sides.

[[[Earth Prison]]]

A huge stone wall emerges from the ground and traps Beatrix within. This stone wall was made by 3 masters. Although the magic king takes time to destroy it.

"They've prepared it. Looks like they've investigated that I'm here. Most importantly I have to get out of this cage immediately." Beatrix gritted her teeth and attacked the stone prison with magic.

[Ifrit]

Gruaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh...

A magic circle formed in front of Beatrix. And from within the magic circle appeared a creature made of fire. That creature over 3 meters tall with a human-like shape was one of Beatrix's strongest fire magic.

"Ifrit! Break that wall!!" Beatrix orders her summoned creature and Ifrit starts punching the walls that imprisoned Beatrix.

Boooooooommmmmm...

Boooooooommmmmm...

Boooooooommmmmm...

***

Inside Duke Hazell's mansion, several people in black snuck in. 2 of them were grandmasters that Beatrix saw at the gates of Duke Hazell's residence. One is the dagger grandmaster and the other is the magic grandmaster. The remaining few people were people at the master level.

"How dare you enter my residence without permission!!" Duke Hazell shouted when he saw the intruders already inside his mansion. Behind him was his wife holding a wand with a blue crystal on it and Raven holding a sword.

Duke Hazell and his wife were awakened by the noise of fighting from the front of their residence. But when they came out, the intruders were already inside the mansion.

"Kill them all quickly! And immediately complete this mission! I will find his daughter, you take care of here." Dagger Grandmaster divides his duties with Magic Grandmaster.

"Okay." after the magic grandmaster nodded, the dagger grandmaster disappeared from his place. 𝗳𝒓𝙚e𝓌e𝚋𝙣𝚘𝐯𝙚𝙡.𝑐૦ｍ

"Don't you dare touch my daughter!!" Duke Hazell shouted angrily after hearing what they said. He immediately ran towards his daughter's room. But he suddenly stopped.

[Binding chains]

Dozens of magic chains bound the movements of Duke Hazell and the others. The one who cast the magic was the magic grandmaster.

"Noisy. Finish them off immediately." magic grandmaster then ordered his remaining men with him.

"Honey, can you please let go of this chain?" Duke Hazell asked his wife.

"I will try." After saying that 5 magic circles appeared from Eleanor's body. She stomped her wand on the ground and dozens of small magic circles appeared under her feet.

[Miniature Water Dragon]

A dozen small dragons appeared from the magic circle and began to attack the chains that bound them.

***

Clara who was fast asleep in her room suddenly woke up hearing a noise nearby. Just as she was about to see what was going on, her bedroom door opened and a man in black entered her room. Because the room was dark, Clara couldn't see who had just entered.

"Dad? Mom? Is that you?" Clara called her parents but there was no answer.

"Dad please don't joke with me!" She started screaming in fright.

"Your father is probably dead out there... so it's time for you to catch up, chick!" Dagger Grandmaster appeared next to Clara and slashed a dagger into her neck.

"Aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh..." Clara's screams echoed throughout the mansion.
