Invicinble Colorless Butler

Chapter 89 - 52

In the forest which is the border between the central and the inner region of Alba Mountain Range, Ziel walks alone while feeling the presence of Princess Iris. The forest he was exploring looked very dark. Ordinary people would only see darkness wherever their eyes looked, but that didn't apply to him.

"Hmm... her presence disappeared here?" Ziel who was following the mana of princess iris stopped at a large tree. He could sense Princess Iris' presence until a moment ago then suddenly disappeared. He then closed his eyes to search for her whereabouts. He detected the entire area of ??the Alba Mountain Range, but strangely he couldn't find it. So he only thought of 1 possibility.

"Someone's hiding her." Ziel mumbled and started walking steadily towards the inner region of the Alba Mountain Range.

***

At the combined camp of class S, class A, and class D. The atmosphere was tense because of an argument between Prince Fritz and Biron. Meanwhile, class D just watched quietly.

"Miss Clara, may I sit with you?" Rhea approached Clara who was pensive. Her voice immediately woke Clara up.

"Ah, sure. You are?" Clara was surprised to be suddenly spoken to. But then she was confused because she didn't know the girl in front of her.

"I'm Rhea, Ken's classmate. Nice to meet you." Rhea offers Clara a handshake.

"I'm Clara. Ken works as my butler. Nice to meet you too." Clara accepts her handshake. Even though she's a noble's daughter, Clara doesn't mind shaking hands with ordinary people at all.

"Sorry if I disturbed and startled you. It's just that if you wait for Ken, it's better to be together than alone." Rhea smiled and sat next to Clara.

"Thank you. But it seems you are quite close to Ken. Do you two have a special relationship?" Clara asked her suspiciously. She felt pain in her heart when she thought that Rhea had a special relationship with Ziel.

"Ahaha... It's not like that. We're just classmates. And I also just met him. He's mostly quiet when I talk to him anyway." Rhea smiled wryly when she heard Clara's question. She saw Clara's worried face as she waited for her answer.

"Ooh... Thank goodness." Clara breathed a sigh of relief after hearing her answer.

"Excuse me?" Rhea tilted her head in confusion at Clara's words.

"Ahaha... It's nothing!" She realized that she was slipping her tongue because she was too tense to think about the possibilities of their relationship.

They continued to chat while chuckling. Her chat with Rhea made Clara seem calmer than before.

Meanwhile not far from them. The golden-haired Princess kept an eye on what they were doing.

(Hmm... where did that girl come from! I've had enough of the cold green-haired elf now a cheerful pink-haired girl appears!)

Princess Freya was currently grinding her teeth in a bad mood. She didn't know that Princess Aishia who was next to her was looking at her in confusion.

"Freya? Freya?" Princess Aishia called her several times but still no response. Then Princess Aishia patted her on the shoulder to wake her up.

"Eh! Ah, what's wrong Aishia?" Princess Freya was shocked at the sudden clapping because she was deep in thought.

"What are you thinking?" Princess Aishia curiously asked her.

"Ahaha...nothing. I was just daydreaming a little." Princess Freya couldn't possibly say what she was thinking before.

"Is that true?" Princess Aishia doubted her words.

"Sure. By the way, are they still fighting?" Princess Freya tried to divert the conversation.

"Haa... It's okay if you don't want to say it. They're still like that. Your brother seems to be still upset about what happened earlier. And for the class that just joined..." Princess Aishia looked at the new camp outside the 3 existing classes.

"What's with class B?" Princess Freya tilted her head. She didn't see anything suspicious about the newly joined class.

Not long after Ziel left, another group of students came. But from what they saw, it seemed like they had come since class S fought armored gorillas but didn't help and just watched. They only came out after things had calmed down completely. The leader of class B, Vido Campbell looks like a cunning person. He made an excuse that their class was lost in the forest. Even after they set up camp there, they didn't talk to the other 3 classes and were just busy with their classes.

"There's no need to discuss. As long as they don't harm our class, I think there's no problem." Princess Aishia sighed heavily and could only shake her head. Even though she looked calm, some things seemed to be on his mind after Class D came.

Princess Freya just shrugged her shoulders and didn't ask any further. She glanced at the forest where Ziel and Princess Iris disappeared.

***

The black wilderness, that is the name of the forest that Ziel is currently exploring. He is looking for Princess Iris to replace her master, Clara Castilene. But Ziel suddenly lost her existence.

He was currently in the deepest part of the black wilderness and was about to head out towards the border of the central and the inner region of the Alba Mountain Range. Suddenly he felt a tremendous force being deliberately released.

"Hmm..." Ziel looked somewhere in the direction of the Alba Mountain Range's inner region. He took out a plain white mask from his storage space and put it on his face. He also wore a black robe to cover his body and disappeared from where he was.

Ziel got to the place where the power was accidentally released. He knew that it was most likely a trap but he had to see it anyway. There he felt strange because the atmosphere around him was very quiet. There should be a lot of magical beasts in the inner region of the Alba Mountain Range.

Suddenly a small cube with purple light floated above him. Ziel quickly wanted to teleport to another place but the space around him seemed to be locked and from beneath the ground formed a giant cube that locked him up instantly.

"Hahaha... You came. We've been waiting for you and you've finally fallen into our trap." The voice came from a person standing on a cliff and wearing a black robe and a black mask with a rectangular pattern on the forehead.

"Do not talk too much!" Suddenly another person appeared from behind the laughing person. She looks the same as the first person. The black iron cube that had previously floated in the sky returned to her hand.

"Didn't I warn you before?" Ziel said coldly. The people he meant were Lilith and berith. He hadn't taken care of Lilith and Berith since they met not because he couldn't, but because he didn't want to. He once had a friend who was also a person from the divine race and he mingled with humans to get closer and understand more about humans. But he died at the hands of his fellow race. Because of that Ziel doesn't want to indiscriminately kill people from the Divine Race.

"Hahaha...you think we'll be afraid of you now!?" Berith laughed heartily and backed away to make way for Lilith.

"You laugh too much!" Lilith glared at Berith. He who was being stared at like that quickly closed his mouth. Then Lilith said to Ziel who was trapped in the cube. 

"You wouldn't think so, would you? The cube I threw was just the trigger for the actual cube. And this thing I specially requested from the leader because we know that we are not your opponent. This is the highest grade god rank artifact that can be obtained on this continent and the results of our hundreds of research. You won't be able to notice the existence of this artifact no matter how strong you are. Because this artifact is made to blend with the surrounding nature. And…" Lilith stared at the giant cube in front of her. And continued her words.

"You won't be able to get out of there. This artifact is specially made to lock someone up. It can even lock up 3 true gods at once. That's why we named it god prison." Lilith finished her words.

"Hmm... God prison? I'll try how hard this prison is." Ziel then gathered all his strength in his hands and hit the prison wall. God prison only trembled slightly.

""Eh?"" Lilith and Berith were shocked at the same time.

(That surprised me! I thought the artifact would break from shaking. Luckily!)

Lilith felt panic in her heart because Ziel could make the god prison tremble like that.

"Haha...you won't be able to destroy it with your power!" Berith who was also panicking earlier became relieved after seeing the god prison still intact.

"Alright, we have to go. We have to complete our mission." Lilith walked away from the cliff and disappeared into the forest.

"Okay, miss." Berith followed behind him and left Ziel confined within the God Prison. 

Meanwhile, Ziel who was confined in the God Prison was observing his surroundings. In front of him was a small mountain of piles of monster corpses. All of them were superior-level magical beasts. He killed them all while wandering around looking for a way out. They purposely put monsters into the God Prison to kill him.

"I can't summon Zetta and Alvha. This dungeon even seals the space around it. This artifact is truly extraordinary. Even in Azael's time, there was no artifact this strong." he muttered as he fingered the prison walls. Zetta is his black sword and Alvha is his white sword. They were sealed by Ziel in separate spaces due to their power which harmed the surrounding environment.

"Didn't they say this place could confine three true gods at the same time? Then I'll just have to break through it with power above that. I can also try out my new power. I should get out of here soon but it might take some time to gather that much power at once." Ziel closed his eyes and 9 magic seals which were a combination of magic circle and aura seal appeared on his body. And behind him floated a large spirit circle.

"Okay, I'll start." Ziel's voice made the whole prison shake violently.

***

The morning came, the sun shone on the Alba Mountain Range. When Ziel was trying to destroy the god's prison. The students of the four classes were sleeping soundly inside their tents. Only a few are still conscious due to the duty of keeping an eye on students and some are worried about Ziel and Princess Iris.

"Clara, shouldn't you rest?" Rhea spoke to Clara next to her who hadn't slept all night. Eye bags are visible under her eyes. At this time Rhea had started to get close to her and did not call her with honorific anymore.

"I'll be waiting for Iris and Ziel to come back. You haven't rested since last night either, have you?" Freya glanced at the pink-haired girl next to her. She was the one who accompanied Clara all night.

Suddenly a scream came from one of the class S students.

"Princess Iris is back!" He ran and gave information to Prince Fritz who had been on guard since the night. The other classes who heard it immediately came out of their tents.

Clara and Rhea could see from the direction of the forest entrance, a beautiful girl with long straight black hair walked towards their camp. She walked towards them staggering and lowered her head.

"Iris!" Clara Quickly ran to Princess Iris but Rhea stopped her.

"Wait, Clara!" Rhea holds her hand tightly.

"What are you doing Rhea?" Clara gets mad at her.

"You look at her! There's something strange about her!" Rhea pointed at Princess Iris's face.

"What is...!" Clara who looked at Princess Iris's face was shocked because her eyes looked empty. She was like someone who had lost her mind. Suddenly Princess Iris looked at all the students in front of her and shouted very loudly.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.....!" Her screams echoed throughout the Alba Mountain Range.
