Chapter 49 - 12

Name:Invicinble Colorless Butler Author:
Inside the castle of Neigal Kingdom. Currently, King Jonathan is sitting on his throne. In front of him is a large screen showing 4 people with different hair colors and clothes.

"After the Argaint Kingdom, so the next target is the Neigal Kingdom?" The person speaking is King Leonida. After hearing the explanation from King Jonathan, he became worried that his Kingdom could be the next target.

"I don't know if it's the same person who caused havoc in the Argaint Kingdom. Because the commotion isn't as bad as there." King Jonathan added an explanation.

"Can make a hole that big in an instant, can't the culprit also do the same to the Royal castle?" when King Gustave said that, the room suddenly fell silent. Only the sound of someone swallowing saliva can be heard.

"Ahum.... we can't conclude that beforehand. We don't know if it's an ally or enemy. We don't know why he destroyed marquis jacobe and his residence. Whether it's because of revenge or something else we still have to find out. And I heard from King Jonathan that marquis jacobe is a suspect in various crimes. This might be done by one of his enemies." King Elrick broke the silence and tried to calm the other King's fears. Although he also feels very worried.

"You're right, however, this should not interfere with our project. Because this will also be of great benefit to mankind." King Raghnall agrees with King Elrick's opinion.

"Don't worry, the 5 Kingdoms project is running smoothly. The city of Vittoria where the project is taking place is also a safe area because it's right at the border point of the 3 Kingdoms. We can allocate our soldiers to guard from 3 directions. Not to mention the people in charge there will be competent people." King Jonathan opened and showed the location on a map. Although geographically the place where the project takes place is still within the Neigal Kingdom region, that place is very close to the border of the Argaint Kingdom and the Aurelia Kingdom

"Good, so we only have to wait less than 1 year before the project is finished. King Jonathan if there is anything else you need you should contact us immediately." King Leonida speaks on behalf of the other 3 Kings.

"Okay, and about the previous matter. I've given an order for a thorough investigation. Once I get any new clues or information about that I will contact you soon." King Jonathan spoke and ended the virtual meeting.

Far north of the Clorius Continent, on a small island stands a magnificent building that looks like a temple. Inside the temple, there is a wide circular space. In that room, 5 giant statues are standing in a circle. 3 statues like male and 2 like a female. Each statue has a different color. The male statue is white, gold, silver and the female statue is red and purple.

"Our experimental laboratory in the Neigal Kingdom has been destroyed along with the humans who guarded it." The white statue said in a deep voice.

"I told you you can't entrust it to monkeys. What can a weak creature like them do? Ah, by the way, do you know who did it?" The golden statue said its disappointment.

"I don't know yet." The white statue answered briefly.

"Is it possible that this has something to do with the person who caused our failure in the Argaint Kingdom?" A sound like a chiming bell rang out from the purple statue.

"I also thought like that before. But this can also be done by other people. So we have to be more careful with our movements start from now. Don't let Ashil and Asbil's failure happen again." The white statue looked at the silver statue which had been quiet for a long time. But the silver statue was silent and didn't answer.

"Never mind... We can learn from that failure. Have you found that person yet? I don't care about Ashil and Asbil but the problem is that he took the World Altar fragment from us." Instead of the silver statue, it was the red statue that spoke.

"I'm still looking for it. My subordinates will report as soon as they find any clues. For now, let's put that aside. There's another matter I want to talk about." The White statue said in a serious tone.

"What's that?" The golden statue asked representing the other 4 curious statues.

"It's about humans who seem to be making a project. It seems their goal is to unite the entire human race on the continent and develop the talents of the younger generation." The white statue began to explain.

"Heeh... They did something interesting." The silver statue that had been silent for a while suddenly spoke.

"You're usually not interested in what humans do." The golden statue mocked him.

"Is there a problem with you?" The silver statue's voice turned hostile.

"If I had it, what would you do? You who are usually silent, this time can speak. Is there anything that attracts you, coward?" The golden statue countered the silver statue.

"Okay...okay...we're all on the same ship. Why should there be such enmity." The purple statue intervened trying to break them apart.

"You don't have to interfere you bitch." The golden statue turned his irritation to the purple statue.

"What are you saying?" Suddenly the atmosphere of the place changed, the aura emitted by the purple statue made the previously bright temple dim.

"Enough..." The white statue that had been watching them for a long time finally spoke to stop them. An immense pressure filled the entire temple. The suppressed purple statue pulled her aura back and the atmosphere in the temple returned to their original state.

"According to information, the project will start in less than a year from now. I want you to take care of it, Lilith." The white statue began to explain his plan and gave orders to the purple statue.

"Okay, I understand." The purple statue answered briefly.

"Don't let humans grow beyond this. It will harm us the Fallen Gods." The eyes of the white statue emitted a red glow that looked so terrifying and will make others tremble in fear when they see it.

Morning at Duke Hazell's residence. As usual, Ziel is doing his regular sword training in the garden behind the mansion.

"How long are you going to stand there, my lady?" Ziel spoke while continuing to swing his sword. He sensed that someone was staring at him from the window.

"Since when did you notice?" Clara popped out of the window and walked out with a chuckle.

"I noticed it since you started staring at me." Ziel answered honestly without looking at Clara.

"Muu...even though I've hidden well. Then why didn't you call me in the first place?" Clara puffed her cheeks looking very adorable.

"I won't be able to focus on training if you show up early, my lady." Ziel stopped his training and wiped his sweaty face with the towel he brought.

Currently, Ziel looks very sexy in Clara's eyes. She was stunned and her face was blushing as she continued to stare at Ziel. For some reason, she couldn't seem to take his eyes off the scene in front of her.

"Lady...my lady..." Ziel tries to call clara, who stood silent. But there was no answer from her.

"Uh..ah...what's wrong Ken?" She immediately turned her face away from Ziel in embarrassment. She was starting to get flustered and his face was now reddened to her ears like an apple.

"It's okay, I was just worried to see you suddenly speechless." Ziel pretended not to see her blushing face.

"Okay, if there's nothing I'll go back inside." Clara walked into the mansion in a hurry. Ziel who saw it just kept quiet and followed her from behind.

***

When they arrived at the mansion's living room. Ziel could see Duke Hazell and his wife chatting with Beatrix. Ziel got a glare from Beatrix when he entered the room with Clara. He pretended not to notice and gave a small nod to Beatrix.

"Clara, where have you been so early?" Duke Hazell who saw his daughter enter immediately questioned her.

"Ah... I just did a little exercise in the back garden." Clara turned her blushing face away.

"Hehe...you who can't wake up early, suddenly want to exercise? Looks like there will be a storm tonight." Eleanor who saw her daughter's suspicious behavior spoke teasingly.

"Mom what are you saying! I can wake up early too!!" Clara's face was getting redder after being teased by her mother. And she occasionally glanced at Ziel.

"Okay...well. You can get up early only if there's a reason." Her mother continued to tease her bashful daughter.

"Mom...!!" Clara seems to have reached her limit. Her face was completely red with embarrassment as if smoke was coming out from above her head.

"Honey, stop it. Can't you see Clara is already like that?" Her father, who Clara thought would help her, instead teased her.

"Dad!! You too!! Stop teasing me!!" Clara finally exploded and covered her face.

"Haha... Alright." Duke Hazell chuckled at his daughter's adorable behavior.

When they were joking in the living room. Suddenly Raven came with a jog and approached duke Hazell. He whispered something to him.

"What!?" Duke Hazell subconsciously shouted after hearing what Raven said. His wife, his daughter, and Beatrix became curious about what made Duke Hazell so shocked.

"Honey, what happened?" Eleanor anxiously asked her husband. Duke Hazell took a deep breath then said it.

"The residence of marquis jacobe and everything in it has disappeared from the Neigal Kingdom." Duke Hazell said with a gloomy face.
