Invicinble Colorless Butler

Chapter 38 - 1

Ziel woke up from his sleep. This time he saw a different ceiling again from one year ago. He immediately got up from his bed to shower and change clothes. After bathing and getting dressed. Ziel is currently standing in front of the mirror to fix his hair. Currently, he is not wearing a mask anymore. His hairstyle is still the same as his one year ago. But what was different was the color of his hair, which had been gray, had now turned black. And his eyes which were previously red were now the same color as his hair.

He changed it to be not recognized after the Argaint Kingdom incident 1 year ago. Because people with gray hair and red eyes are very conspicuous. And will cause unnecessary trouble. He changes the color of his hair and eyes using his imitation ability which makes him the same as he was when he was first summoned to the world. But right now, his eyes were like a lazy or resigned person..

"Okay, time for work." Ziel straightened his clothes. The attire he was currently wearing was the same as a butler's attire as he had worn before, but not as good as a royal butler's attire.

He was currently working in the residence of Duke Castilene. One of the nobles of the Neigal Kingdom. Ziel worked in this place for almost 1 year. Why did he get to work here? It all started one year ago after Ziel disappeared from the Argaint Kingdom.

***

After Ziel got into the space rips that he made. He teleported into the middle of a forest that he didn't know.

"Where am I currently?" Ziel looked around but found nothing. Then he started walking into the forest.

He doesn't know how many days have passed. Ziel still hasn't found anyone in the forest. He had only encountered magical beasts. Currently, Ziel is not wearing a mask on his face. Ziel changed his appearance to be like him when he was first summoned to this world. The hairstyle he wore was the same as when she was in the Argaint Kingdom. He only changed the color of his hair and eyes.

Ziel could have teleported again to another place. Or fly to the nearest town. But he doesn't know the current geography of the Clorius Continent. If he just teleported and appeared in a more troublesome place or the middle of the city. And if he flies, he can be accidentally seen by others and can be a clue to his whereabouts. It would only create an unnecessary fuss. So he decided to go through the forest and find a way out on foot.

When Ziel was resting under a big tree. He heard a noise from far away. Ziel immediately ran towards the source of the noise. When he got there, he saw a group of people dressed all in black with their faces covered surrounding a luxurious-looking carriage.

There a bald and fat middle-aged man fell with a wound on his shoulder. And an old man dressed as a servant protects him from the people in black.

"Hmm...I know it's none of my business. But it looks like I'll need their help later." Ziel could see that the person who was attacked was a noble.

Ziel disappeared from where he was. And appeared right behind the black-clothed person. He hit the black-clothed man's neck and disappeared again from his spot. One by one the people fell without knowing what happened.

"What?!" One of the people in black who looked like the leader immediately backed away and distanced himself. But what he did was in vain. Ziel was already behind him and immediately grabbed his neck.

"Who are you?!" the leader of the group tried to turn around and look at Ziel. But Ziel broke his neck before he did. Then he threw his body.

The aristocrats and their servants were frightened when they saw Ziel approaching them.

"Who are you?!" The servant drew her sword at Ziel.

"I'm sorry if I scared you. But I'm just an adventurer who happened to get lost in this forest. While I was looking for a way out. I heard the sound of people fighting. So I decided to come and help." Ziel looks very suspicious because he suddenly came out from the middle of the forest and saved them. So he needed to explain the situation for them to believe.

The servant still didn't lower her sword. He looks still suspicious of Ziel who suddenly appears.

"Stop it, Raven!" The injured bald man got up holding the wound on his shoulder.

"Hazell-sama, you shouldn't move around too much. Otherwise, your wound will continue to bleed." the servant immediately helped the bald man up.

"I'm okay raven. You can't be rude to the person who helped us." The bald man seemed to still have trouble speaking.

"I understand, sir." the servant lowered his head and sheathed his sword.

"I apologize for my servant's behavior. I am the Duke of the Neigal kingdom, my name is Hazell Castilene." Hazell lowered her head slightly as it was still difficult to move and introduced herself.

"Ahh, apparently you are a noble. Please forgive my rudeness. My name is Ken Nijisaki. I happened to enter this forest and got lost. I am currently looking for a way out. May I know where we are now?" Ziel introduces himself using his old name. Because he knew using his name at this time would only cause trouble.

"Ooh, Ken? What a unique name. Here is a forest near the capital of Neigal Kingdom, Moissan City." Hazell smiled faintly as he endured the pain in his shoulder.

"I think Hazel-sama should treat the wound first. If you continue like that you will bleed out." Ziel reminded Duke Hazell.

"But we don't have a healer with us." It was the servant who answered Ziel.

"I can cure you if you trust me." Ziel looked at Duke Hazell.

"Okay, I trust you. Please take care of me." Duke Hazell nodded at Ziel.

"But sir..." Raven stood in front of Duke Hazell and blocked him from Ziel. He still couldn't believe him.

"It's all right Raven. If he wanted to do something bad to us, he did it before." Duke Hazell raised his hand to stop Raven from talking. Hearing what Duke Hazell said, Raven reluctantly accepted.

"Okay." Raven backs off and lets Ziel heal Duke Hazell.

Ziel then walked up to Duke Hazell and cast a healing spell on his wound.

[Minor Heal]

Duke Hazell's wounds slowly closed. Not long after that, the wound was completely healed.

"Amazing, you can beat someone at the level of a sword master and you can even do healing magic. You must be at least a Magic Grandmaster." Duke Hazell looked at Ziel with a smile.

"Sorry, but you're wrong. I'm just a senior knight. And why I was able to defeat them is because I used a single-use magic tool that could hide myself and also increase my speed." Ziel tried to lie to Duke Hazell. But Duke Hazell frowned in doubt.

Ziel opens 4 seals of his aura which has a pattern of 2 snakes. He disguised his dragon-patterned aura seal into a snake. After seeing that, Duke Hazell believed what Ziel said.

"Sorry if I doubted you. But if you find your way to the nearest town. Then how about you come with us? We happen to be in one direction, and I haven't properly thanked you for saving us." Duke Hazell invited Ziel to go with him. Ziel pretended to think then nodded slowly.

"Okay, if that doesn't bother you." Ziel agreed to Duke Hazell's invitation.

"Then we must leave immediately. If we leave now, we can arrive before nightfall. You may enter with me in the carriage." Duke Hazell and his subordinates immediately prepared to continue their journey.

"Is that okay?" Ziel was confused because he and Duke Hazell had just met. Suddenly, he allowed Ziel to enter the carriage and was alone with him. Considering he was a noble and it was dangerous for him.

"Of course, you are our savior. If you have malicious intentions. You've been doing it ever since." Duke Hazell didn't suspect Ziel any longer.

"Well then, I thank you for your trust." Ziel entered the carriage along with Duke Hazell. The servant and his other subordinates who were already able to walk began to prepare for departure. While the injured rest on another carriage. And they continued their journey to the capital of the Neigal kingdom.
