“That’s right, just what on earth happen?”The last question from Kazuto was included about the person from before, and also about the Demon race’s annihilationMayuki didn’t answered the two’s questions, as she only staring at the sky Her eyes looked out to the distance as if she was looking for someone on the other side of the sky…
12 years had passed since he used ic for the first time Souji Alkasha had turned 17 years old, but if it was added with his previous life, his e was 31 years old He was already an old manA lot of thing had changed in 12 years First, at the tiht years old, the father of the one he served, Yoyo Yatsugi Crowtail had gone alone towards the hometown of Yoyo’s mother; Hi no KuniWhen she was a kid, Yoyo had said that the mansion would be hers, and she became the current Master It was the birth of a nine year old MasterJustin had taught Yoyo everything until she could be a suitable substitute Yoyo, who desperately absorbed the teaching, had grown up splendidly Apart fro about her seee, experience, her wording, and even her behavior were unlike a child’sSouji was formally appointed as Yoyo’s butler, and all of the basics of a butler were driven into hih he was appointed, he was still an apprentice butlerThere was a time when Yoyo took him to a noble’s party, and Souji was puzzled because it was the first party he ever attended to But because Yoyo wanted to show Souji the world’s true state of affairs, she had hiretted that he had embarrassed Yoyo After that, he studied further on how to behave wherever he wasBecause Souji’s original housework skills were excellent, his absorption rate was high, he shown movements that were in no way inferior if coan to do househen he turned ten years old, he had already reached a point where Bal else to teach himHowever, his attitude as a butler, consideration as a butler, behavior as a butler, etc, the things he needed to memorize were numerous
Balmunk drove all of those into Souji, while Souji also desperately tried to learn all of those to become an independent butlerThe co was especially harsh There were times where he vomited blood There was many times where the experienced made him want to die Once, when he traveled with Bal things that ive up hope However, Balmunk only said, “Yah hah hah ha!” and instantly killed while s He still remembered the surprise at that tiht have already droppedWith this and that, he experienced the adventure that was impossible when he was still in japan, and his body and hened thanks to that There were times the two confronted thieves, and did spy-like missions There’s also ti for three days in a scorching desert Without a trace of fatigue and sweat, Balht?” It was a secret that his important part as a man had shrunk because of fear from thatWhen Souji turned 15 years old, he undertook a certain appointment from Justin who came back for once It was an appointment to be the head butler for this mansionIsn’t Balo together with Justin in the future, Bal, Bal Souji as his successorHonestly he thought it was a heavy burden to be the successor of such monster, but because of the present Master, Yoyo’s, recommendation, and so as not to stain her honor, he respectfully accepted By the way, his mother, Kaina was so happy that she cried because of her son’s promotionFrom then on, all of the miscellaneous duties and housework in the mansion beca occupied by theic For a butler, it was a er, so he , his body was frantically strengthened With that said, the next time they meet, Balmunk, with a sneer on his face, said he’d take hiain to train if he was beca to dieThanks to that, no eted thus far, Souji was able to counter and protect the from Balmunk, the enemies were so easy that his tears fell
Moreover, beside the iic, “Flalad because the cheat-like versatilityOne day, when he orking diligently as a butler, he received a certain order from Yoyo“Go and destroy the one who leads the Demon race”For a moment he doubted his ears, but because her expression said she wouldn’t say it twice, he readily accepted it Yoyo’s principle was to not do anyto that
In the past he also thought “why?” towards the jobs entrusted to him, but there’s always a reason for them Well, it was also necessary for him to search for the reason…Even if he asked her, she’d said to guess it hiather information was said to be necessary for a butler, so he couldn’t help but move as desired by the one he served
Following that, he searched about various things, and he confirmed the fact that the one who lead the Demon race had killed men of power one after another There’s also the possibility that its hand would also reached Yoyo, so Yoyo must have ordered him to annihilate the Demon race to forestall thatThe first time he deprived someone of their lives hen he was 13 years old At the tiot hurt so he deprived the ene on his conscience because the other party was thieves who killed many people for their own reasons Even so the ht on his mind
He lied on his bed because of the impact, and Yoyo nursed him at that time Then,“Let’s becoether, Souji”She said that Froracefulness He decided to help Balmunk occasionally on his behind the scenes work
This world wasn’t a utopia It was a place filled with deceit and inconvenience That’s why sometimes his hands must be stained for his master’s sakeStepping his feet into the dark part of society, the rown accustootten accustos the existences called humans are
Even so he couldn’t just randothened his body and mindAlso for erasing the leader, if possible he wanted to end it fast before he was found by soer and that must be avoided
Therefore, he ated Demon race, and used the white flame’s“Devour” to instantly kill the leader at the end Honestly he thought it eak Rather, Souji’s ic was tooHowever there was a probleht he wouldn’t be seen by someone else, and by the time he noticed, he found three people with human-like appearances
One was a boy, the other tere girls Even though he wasn’t able to confirirl’s face because she looked down, at the very least they weren’t his acquaintance The black-haired girls who came even to here didn’t enter his mindFor the boy, he got the feeling that he had seen his face soue that an ikeot out of this place
On his way, he thought he heard a voice, but he thought it was just his iination and returned to Yoyo as isWhen he returned and reported it, From Yoyo,“You did well。 Just as expected of my butler。 And thanks for your hard work”She said that with a smile He told the appearances of the three he had seen, and apparently the three were people froh 【Su Brave Souls Vessels】
He thought that story was just like those in light novels, but he could only s that also had occurred to himAs he wondered how he should proceed after this, Yoyo said,“It’s okay。With this、it has becoth”She said that in joy When he felt so and tried to leave that place, Yoyo noticed that his uniform had become dirty“For the uniforo If it was Bal, he’ll annihilate the ene and return unhurt”In other words, he must also become that unhurt However,“Ara? The tail-coat is part of the butler’s body Didn’t you learn that? “He couldn’t find the room for rebuttal if she said that Souji became depressed,“Fufu, be diligent, Souji”The corner of her eyes rose as if she enjoyed it Souji could only say, “I can’t do anything but apologize for this,” he apologized and returned to his work
