Chapter 183: How To Advice Your Lord.

The silence in the demon lord's castle was much more intense this morning than it has ever been before, thought Rosavellt. There wasn't a single sound from one end of the castle to the other end. Even the maids and the servants that usually work around the castle were nowhere to be found. If anyone said that this castle was abandoned then Rosavellt would have definitely believed them. The entire place was quiet as a graveyard.

Rosavellt walked silently down a corridor as she headed towards the demon lord's bathroom with a large bowl of hot water mixed with herbs and spices in her hands. She looked around at all the empty corners and she was suddenly reminded of how things used to be before the demon lord came to the demon castle. Before the demon lord came here, only the household lived in the demon castle and there were no other slaves or servants! The castle would always be silent and even the sound of your feet hitting the ground would echo like a gong in the silence. Rosavellt never liked living here when the demon lord wasn't around and now that things were like that again, Rosavellt was uncomfortable again.

Rosavellt knew that things became like this all because of what happened last night. Rosavellt heard about what happened during the fight between the demon lord and Elias from Dragonnel. Rosavellt couldn't believe that the demon lord lost that fight. The trick that Elias used was an underhanded one that shouldn't be commended at all, but it was a fight and an opponent is allowed to use any method to win in a fight. Rosavellt knows that it didn't matter that Elias was getting outside help from someone else, the only thing that mattered was that Elias won and the demon lord lost.

Floid has isolated himself ever since he came back from the fight and Rosavellt knew that he was simply trying his best to calm down. When Rosavellt and Alucard arrived at the volcanoes where the fight took place, they only saw Floid sitting on top of a mountain with an injured Dragonnel lying beside him. Floid told Rosavellt to heal Dragonnel before Floid simply left the battlefield and went back to the castle. Dragonnel was seriously injured in the final explosion from a mana bomb that Elias used to escape and Rosavellt just finished healing him according to Floid's orders. Rosavellt knew that Dragonnel wouldn't mind the small scars that would remain even after the healing. Dragonnel got the scars while protecting the demon lord so he would wear them proudly.

The person that Rosavellt was really worried about was the demon lord himself. Floid hasn't spoken to anyone ever since the fight and Rosavellt knew that the noise from the servants and maids would only make things worse, so she told all of them to leave and go back to their room for some time so that the demon lord would have the time he needs to calm down.

Right now, Floid was in the bathroom alone, and even though he didn't call on any of his maids, Rosavellt was still going to try to join him. Rosavellt knew that she was taking a risk by acting without the orders of her lord, but she had to try! The demon lord was currently very annoyed and angry, but just silently brooding was not going to help him! She knew that he couldn't work while he was in that state of mind! She needs to help him calm down and get past this in any way she could so that he can come back stronger.

Rosavellt once heard from her mother that a woman's touch was one of the best ways to heal a man and Rosavellt took those words to heart. Rosavellt was the head maid of the demon lord and it was her job to make sure he was always satisfied. if Rosavellt couldn't do even this much then she didn't deserve to call herself the head maid.Updated from novelbIn.(c)om

As Rosavellt got to the door of the bathroom and she took in a deep breath before she pushed forward and opened the door to step in. The steady sound of the mini waterfall on the opposite wall of the bathroom reached Rosavellt immediately as she bent slowly and took her shoes off at the entrance. She flexed her toes as her feet touched the cold floor and she started to walk deeper inside the bathroom. The floor was very cold, but Rosavellt had a low body temperature so she couldn't really feel much of a difference. She could only feel the smooth tiles.

The demon lord was sitting in one corner of the large bath in the center of the bathroom. He was resting both elbows on the edge of the bath and his head was leaned back so he could rest his head as well. Floid's eyes were closed, but Rosavellt could feel that he already knew she was there. Rosavellt took in another breath before she spoke.

"My Lord -"

"Did I not say that I am not to be disturbed?"

Rosavellt immediately froze as Floid spoke in a low, emotionless tone. He didn't even move a muscle and his bloodlust was not active, but Rosavellt knew that one wrong move would lead to grave punishment for her. Her coming here was directly disobeying the demon lord's orders. But Rosavellt knew she had it do this. She wanted to help her lord to get through this!

"I apologize for the intrusion, my Lord. But I believe it is the duty of a maid to serve their lord even when their lord does not know that he needs her service. Please, let me do my duty to you,"

Rosavellt steeled her nerves and forced herself to talk in a calm voice.

"Yes, my lord. If that is what you wish of me. I will advise you to the best of my abilities,"

Floid hummed again before he sat up slowly. This was new to him. He never thought that a member of his household would try to advise him like this. The members of his household have been following his orders and doing his bidding all this time and he didn't think they even had the thought of ever advising him! But it was even more shocking that it was Rosavellt of all people that is trying to advise him. Floid always thought that Alucard would be the first to try something like this.

Should I accept it? Floid immediately had this thought while looking at Rosavellt closely.

Rosavellt was once a member of a royal household and she could have also been a ruler if not for the fact that she joined my household. If there is anyone that would know about what it means to be a king, it is probably her.

Floid wanted to be angry. He wanted to tell Rosavellt that she had no right to even think about advising him, but he wasn't a fool. Floid knew that he needed help. This situation was a foreign one for Floid. This was the first time in his entire fucking life that he has ever failed.

For his whole life, things have always lined up perfectly for Floid. Floid has never tasted defeat at anyone's hand and he never even thought that one day he would fail at something. The failure that Floid faced at Elias' hands was his first. And the fact that Elias won with such an underhanded trick only made things worse! Floid hated it! Floid hated it so much that he wanted to arrange an army to track down and destroy Elias no matter where he fucking was! Floid wanted to tear this entire world apart to find that bastard!

And that would be a foolish thing to do. Instead, Floid decided that he would try his best to calm down on his own before facing his kingdom again. So seeing Rosavellt here to advise him was a little shocking. Floid reached out and traced a finger across Rosavellt's face. She was really beautiful and Floid felt like he was seeing her for the first time all over again. Floid was somehow attracted to the courage she showed by coming in front of him like this and so he spoke.

"Okay, Rosavellt. Tell me. What do I do about this anger in my heart? This burning sensation that won't go away no matter what I do? What advice would you give to someone that wishes to burn the world to the ground in order to find a single worm?"

A great amount of happiness soared through Rosavellt once her lord asked her this question and Rosavellt wanted to smile! This showed Rosavellt that Floid trusted her enough for him to ask her for her opinion. He truly believed that she could help him.

But Rosavellt tried her best to control her emotions and she killed the smile before it could come out. She has to show the demon lord that she is serious here or else she will never gain this sort of favor again.
