Invicinble Colorless Butler

Chapter 270 6

The night atmosphere in the Elven Kingdom was beautiful and calming. The light of fireflies and the musical sound of crickets adorn every corner of the forest, including the area around the castle. In contrast to the beautiful atmosphere around her, Kalya's heart was currently gloomy. Today was the fourth day of the academy students' vacation, and Ziel still hadn't picked her up.

Ziel had promised Kalya that he would pick her up on the third day of vacation. But a day had passed since the promised time, and Ziel had yet to come. This made Kalya worried, annoyed, and sad. The negative emotions inside her are mixed up and make her mood worse, affecting those around her.

Kalya is currently standing on the balcony of her room, looking at the night sky. She was barefoot and wearing only her light nightgown. Her face had been sullen since yesterday, and the people around her were worried about her condition.

"You haven't eaten all day, Cattleya. Aren't you hungry? If you continue like that, you might end up getting sick." A girl said worriedly from behind Kalya. She is Laurel and has been going back and forth to Kalya's room many times to cheer her up.

Queen Jasmine, Zenoa, and Princess Seira also came to Kalya's room, but they were ignored. Therefore, they asked Laurel to accompany Kalya because they knew that the only person who could understand Kalya was not her family but Laurel.

"Didn't I already say that I have no appetite?" Kalya said nonchalantly. She's always like that when she's in a bad mood. Kalya will treat anyone coldly regardless of whether they are her family or close friends. Laurel didn't feel offended as she was used to it.

"I know you said that because you're in a bad mood." Laurel sighed heavily. As her best friend, how could she not know what Kalya was feeling now? Kalya was silent and did not reply to Laurel's words. Then she sighed and opened her mouth.

"You are right. I'm not in a good mood. Because of that, I hope no one bothers me. I just want to be alone for now." Kalya said softly.

"I understand." Laurel knew there was nothing else she could do in that place. She will only waste her time in vain if she continues to be there after hearing Kalya's words. So Laurel complied with Kalya's wish and left the room.

After hearing the sound of the door closing, Kalya couldn't help but sigh. She didn't know why her mood could be so bad just because Ziel didn't come to pick her up on the promised day. Was it because she missed him so much that she felt so disappointed? Could she be annoyed that Ziel didn't keep his promise to her? Or maybe she was sad because she thought Ziel was with another woman right now and forgot about her?

"Haa… I don't want Ziel to see me like this." Kalya feels she should be able to control herself better in the future. She didn't want her habit of being in a bad mood to be seen by Ziel. Her emotions will not be easily provoked when it comes to other matters. But when it came to Ziel, she felt much more sensitive.

Tap... Tap... Tap...

As Kalya was deep in thought, the sound of footsteps brought her back to her senses and irritated her.

"Didn't I already say that I want to be alone for now and don't want anyone to bother me!?" Kalya said coldly without taking her eyes off.

"Is that so? In that case, I will take my leave now." A man's voice came from behind Kalya and made her body tremble. Kalya quickly looked in the direction the voice came from.

"Ziel!" Kalya ran and threw herself into the arms of the man she missed so much. Because Kalya was wearing a thin nightgown, Ziel could feel a soft and supple sensation pressing against his body.

"Am I bothering you? You don't look in a good mood right now." Ziel returned Kalya's hug and asked softly. He could tell by hearing her voice that Kalya was currently in a bad mood.

"No! You will never bother me! It's just…" Kalya replied in a panic and hugged Ziel tighter. She was afraid that Ziel would misunderstand her words earlier. Kalya wanted to express her current feelings to Ziel. But in the end, she didn't dare to continue her sentence.

"Could something have happened in the Elven Kingdom?" Ziel looked at Kalya, who seemed unwilling to let go of her embrace. Then he stroked her hair gently.

"The situation in the Elven Kingdom is fine, and one might even say it is very peaceful." Kalya shook her head and answered in a weak voice.

"Then… what made you like this?" Ziel doesn't know and has no experience dealing with women in a bad mood. Therefore, he could only ask.

"That is… why didn't you pick me up yesterday as you promised? Are you busy with Clara? Or maybe there's another woman?" Kalya finally got the courage to ask Ziel. She buried her face deeper into Ziel's chest, embarrassed by her question showing her jealousy.

"I understand. So your mood changes because of that. I'm sorry I couldn't pick you up yesterday." Ziel said apologetically. His voice was soft and directly channeled into Kalya's ears and made her body very relaxed. All the negative emotions she had felt disappeared instantly.

"Is there a reason for it?" Kalya removed her arms from Ziel and looked him straight in the eye.

"Of course. I intend to explain it to you. But I'll do it inside over dinner because it's so cold here. Haven't you eaten all day?" Ziel smiled. He walks inside the room and leaves Kalya alone on the balcony.

"Yes. I understand." Kalya's face reddened with embarrassment after knowing that Ziel overheard her conversation with Laurel. She followed behind him while lowering her head.

When Kalya entered the room, various food and drinks were already on the table. The food was made by Ziel when he had free time and kept in his space storage as a supply when he needed it.

"It's only been a few days that I haven't eaten your cooking, but I already miss it so much." Kalya smiled broadly when she saw various Japanese foods familiar to her because she often ate them.

(Besides increasing my strength, I have to improve my cooking skills in the future! Otherwise, someone else will come with excellent cooking skills and entrap Ziel's heart with her food! I want Ziel to become addicted to the food I make dan just eat my cooking every day!)

Kalya was deep in thought and clenched her fists with determination. But she quickly returned to her senses after hearing Ziel's voice.

"Please." Ziel smiled. He pulled one of the chairs and invited Kalya to sit down. His actions looked like a gentleman and made Kalya smile sweetly.

"Thank you." Kalya happily sat on the chair. She enjoyed every treatment Ziel had on her, even if it was just a trivial matter. After that, Ziel sat on the chair opposite Kalya, and the two started enjoying their dinner.

Ziel and Kalya's dinner ended quickly. Even though it looks simple, Kalya feels very happy and satisfied. Every treatment from Ziel to her right now felt very romantic.

After finishing dinner, Ziel and Kalya moved to the balcony to chat. They sat on long swing chairs with zero distance, and their skins pressed against each other. They held a cup of warm tea in their hands, and a thick blanket covered their bodies.

Ziel started explaining why he couldn't pick up Kalya yesterday and could only do it today. He told about King Jonathan's arrival at Duke Castilene's residence and their sudden departure to the Aurelia Kingdom to participate in the Five Kingdoms Conference.

Duke Hazell and his family had to leave on the same day without sufficient preparation time. Besides, Ziel couldn't sneak out stealthily once he was inside the magic train. After hearing his explanation, Kalya felt embarrassed for having thought poorly about Ziel. But she quickly put those feelings aside for now and looked at Ziel.

"So you're currently in the castle of the Aurelia Kingdom?" Kalya asked.

"Yes. I arrived at noon and only got a chance to come here at night. It was because of the luncheon that lasted until the afternoon, and King Jonathan's men kept an eye on me from time to time. Besides, I must wait for Lilith to come back to care for Miss Clara when I'm not around." Ziel added another explanation.

"Oh, I see." Kalya nodded slightly. She didn't question why King Jonathan's men kept an eye on Ziel because he could already guess why.

"You're going to take me with you, right? It would be best if you didn't leave me here. I feel bored without you by my side." Kalya placed her teacup on a small round table not far from her and said in a weak voice. Her face clouded at the thought that Ziel would leave her in the Elven Kingdom.Â

Kayla still had reason to visit if Ziel was at Duke Castilene's residence. But Ziel is currently in the castle of the Aurelia Kingdom, where the Five Kingdoms Conference will be held. Kalya is the Princess of the Elven Kingdom, and she must be suspected of being a spy when she comes to that place.

"Of course. That's why I came here. You can stay in a luxurious inn not far from the castle, or I'll try to talk to Freya about it. I'm sure she has a way of helping you stay in the castle with us." Ziel answered firmly.

Ziel wouldn't leave Kalya in the Elven Kingdom just because he couldn't live with her in the castle of the Aurelia Kingdom. He had promised to pick up Kalya and would take her away from there unless Kalya still wanted to stay in the Elven Kingdom.

"Is it true?" Kalya's face brightened, and her voice became more cheerful after hearing that answer. Ziel replied with a smile and a slight nod.

"Thank you!" Kalya kissed Ziel's cheek and hugged him happily. Ziel returned the hug and stroked her hair gently. Their embrace lasted long enough to warm their bodies until they finally let go of each other.

"Ah, I stopped by the world tree for a while to look for Dryad before coming to this place. But Dryad didn't show up when I called, just like four days ago. Do you know why?" Ziel wanted to discuss something with Dryad. But whenever he came to the world tree, he felt that Dryad was deliberately hiding and trying to avoid him.

No matter how strong Ziel was, if the Dryads had fused with the world tree, he wouldn't be able to find her location unless he destroyed her hiding place. Of course, Ziel wouldn't do that just to see Dryad.

"Eh? That is…" Kalya smiled bitterly after recalling her conversation with Dryad two days ago.

At that time, Kalya purposely came to the world tree to meet Dryad. When Kalya called out to her, Dryad quickly revealed herself. Kalya no longer showed hostility towards Dryad like before. Nowadays, they even look like close friends. They spent time chatting, and Kalya was grateful for the aphrodisiac that Dryad had given her back then.

Kalya also briefly asked why Dryad didn't want to appear when Ziel looked for her, and the answer she received then made her laugh. Dryad felt that Ziel was looking for her because he wanted to scold her about the aphrodisiac she gave to Kalya. She was sure of her intuition. Because of that, Dryad didn't want to meet Ziel.

"About that… she told me she was afraid to meet you. Dryad asked me to apologize to you for the aphrodisiac she gave me. If she's sure you're not mad at her, she'll want to see you." Kalya told Ziel about what Dryad had said to her.

"Can she know I want to meet her to talk about it?" Ziel asked. He didn't expect Dryad to know his purpose in coming to see her. Kalya nodded slightly in response to Ziel's words.

"Okay. I won't bother with that anymore." Ziel sighed and shook his head. Kalya smiled coquettishly and then brought her lips to Ziel's ear.

"Ziel, will you stay with me tonight?" Kalya whispered in a seductive voice. Her face was red, and her eyes were moist. Ziel could feel that Kalya's breath was a little rushed.

"Yes, I will." Ziel caressed Kalya's cheek gently and kissed her lips. Kalya froze because of Ziel's actions. She didn't expect that Ziel would kiss her first. But Kalya quickly regained her senses and returned the kiss passionately. She pushed Ziel on the long swing chair. After that, the chair swayed to the rhythm of their moans of pleasure.
