Chapter 363 Shadow uncovering the truth (1/2)
A few days after Sayaka left the current Shadow to finish the mission by himself, and he was now inside the palace disguised as a butler. The security inside the mansion was the best Shadow had ever seen before, but to someone with Shadow's capabilities, it was no problem to get here. The problem was what came afterward.
Based on the former Shadow's death, he too was able to get this far, the problem was finding the real Emperor. With the information the past Shadow gave, it meant that the Emperor had numerous doubles inside this palace of his.
Shadow currently looked like a thirty-five-year-old man, black hair waxed backward with a goatee. His face wasn't ugly nor was it something one would call handsome, it was a normal face that wouldn't garner a second look from others.
”Harold, what are you doing here?” While Shadow was looking snooping around the second floor, someone called for him. Shadow who was now called Harold for the duration of the mission looked behind him and saw a relatively older man with regal feeling to him.
”Head butler, I was just double-” Shadow wasn't able to finish what he was about to say when the head butler interrupted him with a glare.
”I do not wish to hear your excuses, Harold. It is already ten a.m that means you and the others in your team should be cleaning the fourth floor right about now.” The head butler took out his pocket watch and double-checked the time before looking back at Shadow and sighing.
”It has been a week since you arrived here Harold, I had hoped that by now you would be used to the workflow.” The head butler was now looking at Shadow with a bit of disappointment in his eyes. Shadow then bowed his head and responded, ”I'm sorry head butler, I just wanted to double-check on the work we did on the second floor. I was about to head back with the others after I saw that everything was alright.”
Hearing Shadow's explanation the head butler looked at him for a bit before speaking. ”There is no need to do that, there are others assigned for such a job. All you need to do is follow your group and do your job properly... Well, what's done is done, this conversation is over. Head back to your group now.” Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click visiting.
”Thank you Head butler.” After saying that Shadow passed by the head butler and headed towards the stairs. Seeing the fading back of Shadow, the head butler couldn't help but sigh again.
'I wonder why that guy would recommend this kind of person for this job. He even recommended him so aggressively. He's pretty good but he's not up to the standard for the palace. If he doesn't improve after one more week, I'll just fire him.'
