Invicinble Colorless Butler

Chapter 222 15

After finishing his explanation, Jourelio quickly divided class S into several groups and gave each group an assignment. He did not give the task directly to them but determined it by lottery to be fair to the students.

It didn't take long for the class S students to finish the draw. Each group consists of three to four people, and all of them have got their respective assignments. Azalia is in the same group as Princess Seira and Prince Viron. Her group had the task of accompanying important guests during their time at the Monarch palace.

Azalia looks disappointed with the results of her group's draw. She wanted the task of picking up and dropping guests at the Monarch palace because it would allow her to immediately find out if Ziel had come to attend the inauguration ceremony. Azalia would have difficulty finding information about Ziel if she had to keep accompanying the guests.

"I think I will find out sooner or later after the people from the human academy come." Azalia sighed heavily and looked at the lottery paper in her hand. On the paper was written the number 6, which meant she would accompany the people of the Aurelia Kingdom tonight.

Azalia kept thinking about getting information about people from the human academy. It made her forget that tonight she couldn't sneak in search of the whereabouts of the world altar fragment because he had to accompany the people from the Aurelia Kingdom. Moreover, the security within the Monarch Palace must have been much tighter because of those important guests. But Azalia was too bothered by the matter on her mind and forgot about other essential things.

Jourelio reconfirmed the group and assignments of the Class S students and then dismissed them. After that, he left the classroom and went to the principal's office to report on the assignment. Although he couldn't meet Raphael there, usually he just left the report paper on his desk.

Meanwhile, the students of class S were freed to do anything until it was time to do their job. The students could go back to their rooms to rest or to the cafeteria for breakfast.

Azalia decided to return to her room because she was uncomfortable with the lewd stares of the male students in the classroom, especially Prince Ozkar. Azalia was sick of seeing his face and didn't want to deal with him anymore. She ignored all the voices calling her name and hurriedly left the place.

Time quickly passed, and the sky above the Beast Kingdom had already darkened. The guests from the demi-human territory had arrived, and the class S students had already started doing their jobs. The students did their assignments very well. They receive guests in a friendly but not humble manner and still show their dignity as hosts.

On the other hand, Azalia and several other students were still waiting to do their assignments because the guest they would be responsible for had yet to arrive. Important guests from outside the demi-human territory were expected to arrive in a few moments. The information was obtained from the Beast Kingdom mage, which detected several magic trains traveling at high speed, entering its territory and heading in the direction the Arcuz Grand Academy was located.

<br/>Not long after, six magic trains traveling at high speed were seen approaching the Arcuz Grand Academy area from the sky. The six magic trains belonged to the Piqmentia Grand Academy, Aurelia Kingdom, Argaint Kingdom, Neigal Kingdom, Rubelia Kingdom, and the Cirlus Kingdom.

After the Class S students received the news that guests from outside the demi-human region were coming, each of them had different expressions. Some students are nervous, anxious, excited, and also look normal. It was the first time for them to welcome guests from outside the demi-human region. What's more, they were important people from the kingdoms of the human region.

According to the information that the class S students had obtained, six magic trains were seen approaching their location. The magic train lowered its height gradually and landed on the space reserved for parking. Not far from that place was built a base where a group of class S students gathered and prepared to welcome the guests, and they already looked ready at this time.

The class S students of the Arcuz Grand Academy put on their uniforms and lined up neatly with a dignified demeanor while puffing out their chests proudly. Even though the people who came were important guests, the students didn't want to be looked down upon by them, especially the students from the Human Academy. Princess Irene was seen among the students and became the only royal family to get an assignment in that place. Even so, she showed no complaints on her pretty face.

Each magic train has a different symbol on the side of the carriage, which distinguishes each kingdom. Princess Irene's group was currently not far from the parked magic train. Each group from class S will welcome and escort groups from different kingdoms. That was because the places reserved for the guests were scattered throughout the Monarch Palace and located far apart from each other.

"Can I swap my group assignment with yours? I will be in charge of welcoming and escorting people from the human academy." Princess Irene asked a girl who was the group leader next to her. She and her group should be in charge of welcoming and escorting people from the Rubelia Kingdom. However, Princess Irene knew that most of the people from that kingdom hated the demon race, especially Princess Reina.

Princess Irene didn't want their situation and the people of the Rubelia Kingdom to be tense. Because of that, she wanted to exchange her duties with another group. Apart from that, Princess Irene also had another reason to switch tasks with that group. She misses Clara and the rest of her friends at the human academy. Princess Irene wanted to meet up soon and chat many things with them.

"Is it okay? The number of people from the human academy was far more than the guests from the human kingdom. Are you sure you won't have any trouble?" A girl replied to Princess Irene's words. She was the group leader in charge of the people of the Piqmentia Grand Academy.

"Of course, it doesn't matter. Is it okay with you guys?" Princess Irene smiled and looked at the other two students in her group. The two of them were girls, and they nodded in response to Princess Irene's question. The first girl is an elf, and the other is a demon.

The girl was pensive for a while, looked at her members, and quickly got their answers.

"Okay. We agree. We will exchange tasks with your groups." The group leader nodded in agreement and left with her two members towards the magic carriage belonging to the Rubelia Kingdom.

"Thank you!" Princess Irene slightly lowered her head to the group and then looked at her group.

"I'm sorry that I suddenly asked to switch tasks with the group without informing you first!" Princess Irene bowed to the two students of her group.

"You don't have to do that, Princess Irene! We understand why you did it, and we are not mad at you. Please don't bow to us like that!" One of the girls in Princess Irene's group responded frantically to Princess Irene's actions. She was just a commoner from the Elven Kingdom who was lucky to be accepted into the class S of Arcuz Grand Academy. She didn't expect Princess Irene to bow to her to apologize.

"She's right, Princess Irene! We never even thought of blaming you for your decision! Please stand up immediately! Otherwise, we will become the center of attention of those around us!" The other girls from Princess Irene's group were no less panicked than the first girl. She was the daughter of a minor noble in the Demon Kingdom, so there was no way she would allow the Princess of the kingdom her father served to bow before her like that.

"Thank you! Thank you for understanding my selfishness!" Princess Irene felt relieved after hearing the words of the two girls. She did the assignment swap suddenly and didn't have time to ask the opinion of the other group members.

Princess Irene was worried that they would be angry with her. But it turned out to be just her fear. Princess Irene could see the two girls were honest when they spoke to her. Even though they spoke to her awkwardly because of her status as a Princess of the Demon Kingdom, Princess Irene could feel their sincerity towards her.

"Okay. Okay. It's best if we don't keep standing here since the people from the human academy are already starting to get off their magic trains." The elf girl pointed at the magic train belonging to the Piqmentia Grand Academy and reminded Princess Irene.

"You are right! Let's go there right away! Otherwise, we will be judged negligent in doing our duty!" The demon girl panicked after looking in the direction the elf girl was pointing.

"Let's go over there and do our job!" Princess Irene nodded. She and the two girls walked towards the magic train of the human academy. One by one, the people from the carriage got out, but Princess Irene didn't see Clara among the people. She felt anxious because she thought that Clara would not join the group of people from the human academy this time. But her anxiety disappeared instantly when she saw a black-haired girl wave her hand at her.

"Irene!" The black-haired girl ran up to Princess Irene, and a black-haired boy with a poker face followed behind her. Princess Irene smiled broadly when she saw the two people. They are Clara and Ziel. The person Princess Irene looked forward to the most among the other guests.

"Clara!" Princess Irene hugged Clara. The two girls from Princess Irene's group smiled after seeing the heartwarming scene.

"You look fine, Irene." Clara smiled and hugged Princess Irene back.

"You look as excited as ever too!" Princess Irene involuntarily shed tears after hearing Clara's words.

Princess Irene and Clara let go of their embrace after they felt the people's gazes around them.

"I didn't think we would meet again so soon after parted ways in the Cirlus Kingdom." Clara chuckled after remembering their separation in the Cirlus Kingdom when Clara returned to the academy because her vacation period was over.

"You are right. I feel ashamed when I think about it." Princess Irene also felt the same way as Clara. She thought she would never see Clara again or maybe take a long time to see each other again. But Princess Irene didn't think they would meet again in less than a month and she felt embarrassed after remembering their touching farewell that time.

"Okay. We don't have to think about it anymore. By the way, you look beautiful in that uniform!" Clara looked Princess Irene up and down with sparkling eyes.

"Ahaha...thank you." Princess Irene smiled shyly with a blush on her face. Then she looked at Ziel behind Clara.

"How are you, Ken?" Princess Irene ventured to greet Ziel first.

"I'm fine, Princess Irene." Ziel slightly lowered his head to Princess Irene. After that, an awkward atmosphere was created between them, making the two girls from Princess Irene's group confused about their relationship.

"Princess Irene, we'd better take them to their room immediately. I think they must be exhausted after the long journey." The elf girl from Princess Irene's group tugged at Princess Irene's sleeves to remind her.

"Oh, yes. I apologize for my impolite behavior. I will escort you to a room that has been specially prepared for the people of the Piqmentia Grand Academy." Princess Irene quickly realized that Merlick and the others from the human academy were looking at her. Some human academy students looked at her with hatred and disdain, but Princess Irene ignored them because they weren't important to her.

There were no Princes, Princesses, heroes, and Kalya among the people from the human academy. They were with their kingdom and had been brought to their room by another group.

"it doesn't matter. We can understand your feelings. In that case, I will have to trouble you to show the way." Merlick smiled and replied in a friendly tone.

"Thank you for your understanding. Then please follow me." Princess Irene and the other two girls in her group led the people of the human academy to their rooms within the Monarch palace. On the way, Ziel kept looking at several places of the magnificent building, and Clara noticed it.

"What are you looking at, Ken?" Clara asked Ziel curiously. She felt that Ziel's gaze was not because he was admiring the splendor of the Monarch Palace but for another reason.

"I'm just looking at the splendor of this building, my lady." Ziel thinks Clara doesn't need to know what he's looking at right now. He didn't expect him to have the same fate as Clara. Less than a month, Ziel had reunited with Azalia.

(if she were here, it would mean that the world altar fragments were also somewhere within the palace. but it seemed she would have a hard time retrieving them since there was a being almost as powerful as the divine race hiding within that place)

Ziel muttered in his heart and narrowed his eyes towards the Arcuz Grand Academy principal's office.
