Invicinble Colorless Butler

Chapter 5 - 1

Ziel opens his eyes that still Sleepy. This is the 15th of the purple moon on the sacred calendar. Ziel is now 15 years old. Unlike his old facial features. He now has light gray hair. He is 180 cm tall and has slightly pale skin.

The most eye-catching of them is his crimson-colored eyes. Previously his eyes were brown. But because of his old powers awakening in his new body 3 years ago. Suddenly ziel's eyes turned crimson. And the most visible of his figure is the burns on his face shaped like a magic circle stacked with an aura seal. This is because of his power awakening, but his current body is still unable to accommodate his strength. But it will disappear over time and training. .

"That dream again huh."

He immediately got up from his bed. Prepare to clean up and start training. The training in question here is training for being a servant.

Suddenly the door of Ziel's room opened. Coming was an old woman in maid's clothes. She was the adoptive mother of Ziel and head maid in argaint castle.

It is said that Ziel was found when he is a baby. In an empty house when she took shelter during heavy rains after she returned from Aurelia kingdom.

"Ziel are you awake?" She asked Ziel.

"Yes, I just woke up earlier. What's wrong with you Anna-san? You look in a hurry today?" He replied while tilting his head in confusion.

Seeing Anna in such a hurry Ziel was confused. It's not like she's usually freaking out. And as Ziel remembers nothing important today.

"Huh? Did you forget Ziel? Today is the selection of servants for the noble and the royal family." She was shocked because she had told Ziel about this event yesterday.

"Ah, I just remember it was held today. But it doesn't seem to have anything to do with me. Who would choose a servant with a bad face like me?" Ziel replied with a word that belittled himself.

Anna felt pain in her chest after hearing Ziel say that. Anna already considers Ziel as her son. Although his face became like that because of an unknown reason. Anna still loves him.

"You just have to get ready. Because Princess Aishia will come with Princess Freya." Anna said in a good mood.

"Princess Freya? Isn't she is a princess from the Aurelia Kingdom? Is she here to pick a servant too?" He asked because he didn't understand the purpose of Princess Freya.

"No, King Elrick is having a meeting with King Leonida. Princess Freya came with him. Princess Freya was also a childhood friend of Princess Aishia. So she came just to accompany Princess Aishia. Both Princess are very beautiful. Hehe..." Anna explained with a chuckle.

"Ooh is that so, it's none of my business too. There's no way I'm going to be chosen to be their servant. I'll Prepare first." Ziel replied in a surrendered tone.

"Well, I'll wait for you outside." She said with a sad expression.

"Yes." Ziel only replied briefly.

Anna immediately came out and closed the door. As soon as Anna came out Ziel immediately prepared to take a shower and get dressed. Not to forget he took the mask from his space inventory.

The mask is plain white without having any holes and only has an eye pattern on it. Looks like an ordinary mask. But the mask is not made of metal, wood, or plastic. This mask he made special from the bone. Precisely dragon bones. The mask includes artifacts that will hide mana and aura coming out of his face and eyes.

He wears a mask so that others don't see signs that look like burns on his face. Even when talking to others without a mask he can only close his eyes. He only opened his eyes when talking to anna.

"Haaa..." Ziel sighs heavily while wearing a mask on his face. He then immediately came out of his room. There, Anna waited for him to come out.

"Are you ready?" Anna asked excitedly.

"What am I ready for?" He asked back with a little tired.

"Of course for the selection of servants. This is your chance. Please don't be pessimistic. Your ability is above that of any other young servant." She said while still encouraging Ziel who looked lazy.

"Even though my face is like this? They'll run away when I serve them." Ziel said as he pointed towards his face.

"Haaa... Just let's get to where events are held. The event was held in the park behind the castle." Anna sighed while pulling my hand and asking me to hurry to go to the place of the maid's selection.

"Yes." Ziel just nodded quietly at Anna's words.

There's been a lot of servants coming together. The show will start at lunchtime. So at least there's still plenty of time to get ready. But they've gathered there which signifies that this event is very important to them.

"Ooh, who is this coming? A bad-looking servant who hoped he would be taken to serve the nobility."

Suddenly someone threw sarcasm at him. He's a boy about his age. With golden hair, yellow eyes, and quite handsome. At 185 centimeters tall he's taller than Ziel. His name is Reiner. He is the biological child of anna. But it looks like he can't get along with Ziel.

"Reiner what are you saying?" Anna asked in a somewhat angry tone.

Ziel just shut up to hear it. Didn't even see it. But it was Anna who heard it getting angry.

"What did I say, mom? What I'm saying is real. Right?" He asked the friend behind him while shrugging his shoulders.

"Yes yes, it's true!"

"Yes!"

Servant's who's together with Reiner who answered it. They were Reiner's friends. But it makes Anna angrier.

"Reiner stop. You better be prepared to serve the nobles than you take care of others. Are you worthy to serve them?" Anna said with a slight shout.

"Cih... you always help him. Is he more important to you than me? Let's get out of here. It's just going to ruin my mood." He replied while clicking his tongue unsatisfied.

Reiner went with his friend to the servant's prep. Anna approaches Ziel and calmed him down by patting him on the shoulder.

"I'm sorry for what Reiner did. I wish you don't think too much about it." Anna said sadly.

"Don't worry about it. Rather than that, shouldn't you be prepared to welcome noble and royal family as a head maid?" Ziel replied while shaking his head.

"Yes, you're right. I was just going to say it. All right, you get ready at the young servants' place. I'm going to go first to set up the senior servants. Good luck today." Anna said with a small smile.

"Hopefully." He replied indifferently.

Anna then rushed to her place arranging for the senior servants to prepare the nobles and the royal family to come. Ziel just stood in line with the other young servants.
