Became the Butler of the Second Heroine of the Harem - Became the Butler of the Second Heroine of the Harem chapter 71

71 – Star of Darkness (3)

The Snow Fairy.

Even in the barren and harsh north, they live in groups farther north than the Ursa family’s territory, far from building walls to protect themselves, they live on top of trees.

Their ancestors were kicked out of the Great Forest a long time ago because they were not chosen by the World Tree even though they were born in the same forest.

The ones who escaped from the shadow of the world tree and fled all the way to the north were vicious beasts and beasts who had lost their reason.

Unlike the docile animals that roamed the Great Forest, they escaped from animals faithful to their instincts and climbed up the trees.

The long lifespan unique to fairies gave the forest fairies daily languor and leisure, but gave the snow fairies time to build skills and knowledge for survival.

Unlike the forest fairy who spent a day leisurely, he made me realize how precious that day is by spending a tight day.

Forgetting the peaceful days of the Great Forest and living a new life, they lived a war-like life every day, gaining white hair and white skin, and outsiders called them snow fairies because of their appearance.

As they hunted demon beasts on top of trees and quietly dealt with outsiders invading their territory, they naturally became masters of hunting and assassination over the years.

The ferocious beasts and beasts have now become easier to hunt than the gentle animals in front of them, and have come to dominate the forests of the upper northern region.

“I have to ask where you hid him, so avoid the vital points and attack him so you don’t die.”

William’s eyebrows raised slightly as the woman who had given the order among the snow fairies gave additional arrogant orders to the runners.

The rising spirit of selfishness began to boil over their arrogance. Who would have known that he would once again do what he often did when he was young, making arrogant people kneel in front of himself and his master with two fists.

His bad friend, Gillian, wouldn’t have expected it either.

As William rolled his pupils to and fro and quickly observed the movements of the approaching snow fairies, he was inwardly amazed.

It was the most threatening move William had ever seen.

‘Of course, apart from that.’

After observing, William finally moved. His hand, which was still behind his back, was already covered in black gloves, and he brushed his hand once and lightly struck the dagger that came closest to him with the blade of his hand.

‘The attacks are as light as one.’

Of course, he said he struck lightly, but the power was by no means light. Everyone was startled and stopped moving for an instant at the roaring sound no matter how hard iron collided with iron.

And William, who did not miss that fleeting moment, thrust his fist into the abdomen of the man holding the dagger, assuming that he was not Sirius’ mentor.

“Keuk…”

He didn’t let go of the dagger even as he poured blood into his mouth. Eventually, he couldn’t stand it and rolled over his eyes and fell forward.

A longsword, dazzling in the sunlight through the back of his bowed head, flew towards William’s head, but was cut in two by the opposite fist of his pierced fist.

Even so, the woman holding the longsword tried to stab her with the half-remaining longsword, and several weapons flew through the gap as she lost her balance and fell due to her kick towards William’s leg.

“That’s right, where did the initial momentum go…”

He moved his fists and feet at an imperceptible speed, making sharp weapons such a mess that they could never be used again. Fascinated by the sight of her broken armor in her hands, they retreated to her side, the shortest woman who did her command.

One of those who can’t live even 10 percent of their life, called short-lived in the vulgar language of fairies, couldn’t hide their astonishment at the power that overwhelms them.

“…Are you done?”

She was short and didn’t say anything. She had already realized that none of them could beat the solitary species in front of her when the second fell forward.

I wonder if he had expected that even among the snow fairies, one of the best warriors, the priests of the moon, would be defeated without even using their hands. He shook his head with a somber voice.

“…No, no.”

William lightly loosened his hands, corrected his monocle and looked at it with a slightly regretful look. It was a long time since the excitement that had boiled over had already cooled down. I had no idea that the masters of hunting and assassination that had come before were so weak.

It was time to put aside the despondent feeling of having lost the fantasy I cherished as a child and return to being an adult. When he was about to call another servant to catch suspicious people who had invaded the territory, a person familiar with him approached.

“Will, you bastard! It’s so noisy that the horses get nervous! I’m exhausted trying to calm it down… Who are they, why are they arguing?”

William’s best friend Gillian, who had short brown hair and beard, grumbled on his way to him. When he saw the priests of the moon, he asked, and William answered.

“They said they were looking for Sirius. When they said there was none, they said nonsense saying that they had come under the trust of the god Stella, so there was a bit of a conflict.”

“Stella’s oracle is a lie. But isn’t it the little butler’s guest?”

“They called him him.”

“What nonsense…”

“He is.”

When the short woman opened her mouth, her party showed signs of bewilderment. She opened her mouth again when she saw the two of them watching in silence to see what they would say.

“He is the only child of the moon in this world, Luna-sama. He who has received the protection of the moon will guide us.”

“Moon…”

“A child?”

She reveals her big secret and is in desperation with her fidgety friends. And of the two who acted as if they were surprised about the moon child, Gillian opened his mouth.

“What is that, you bastards. Moon children? Aren’t these bastards heretics?”

“I think so too.”

They were called pagans because they had no knowledge of the moon god.

I had a dream after a long time. I was alone in the space I always saw, in a pitch-black space with nothing.

I tried to stay still, wondering if he would come looking for me like before, but no one was looking for me, so I just walked. After walking for about an hour, one person finally showed up.

She was a short girl with her jet-black hair. I tried to keep her alert, wondering if this Sirius had reappeared as a child, but the girl who silently shook her head slowly approached me and took me into my arms.

She felt that she missed how warm her arms were.

“It’s not long now.”

My eyes widened at the deep resonance that could not be called a girl’s voice. What are you saying is missing? It was an unknown dream, but I didn’t feel any discomfort.

I felt like I could sleep when I closed my eyes again.

“Hmm…”

The complexion of the lady who was sleeping in my arms did not look good. Was she dreaming of something? She stroked her head so as not to wake up.

I never got tired of stroking her soft hair. Carefully stroking her hair several times, her frowning face straightened up and her complexion gradually improved.

While I was sighing, I met eyes with the lady who slowly opened her eyes.

“Hmm…Were you awake?”

“Hmm, I just woke up too.”

He let out a small yawn, and I yawned too. I realized again that yawning is contagious.

“Why are you copying yawns?”

“Yawning is originally contagious.”

Yawning, which is contagious through empathy, tends to be more contagious the more special the relationship is. So when the young lady yawned, I just followed suit.

“Yes, I’ll trust you. Anyway, I had a dream earlier…”

“You were frowning while sleeping earlier. It must have been a bad dream.”

“…Yeah. A star circled around me and then disappeared. I was following a piece of starlight that fell to the ground to find that star…You see a large moon floating in the sky? But I was particularly frightened. . It looked like it was looking at me with open eyes like a human eye.”

“This must be really creepy.”

Apart from that spookiness, I wonder if the young lady also had a dream related to me. Could it be that the star that was hovering around was Lars? She didn’t even have time to think before she went on with her words.

“I was so afraid of the moon that I couldn’t do anything, but a black wolf came and stood in front of me and covered the moon. He licked my cheek as if to reassure me…”

After he finished talking, he looked at my face. Then, he gently tugged at my cheeks with both hands.

“Wouldn’t that wolf be you?”

“How am I a wolf, lady?”

No, the wolf will be right. If I am not a wolf, given the name Sirius, the heavenly wolf.

…Doesn’t matter.

“Well, it can’t be such a nice wolf. You’re going to sleep better than that?”

The eyes of the young lady, who had become bright, were shooting rays as if telling her never to sleep.

“…Mysteriously, I can’t sleep. I think I woke up at the story of the lady.”

“Then I have a good idea, would you like to hear it?”

It’s been a while since I’ve seen a bad boy face. I wanted to refuse, but I was afraid of repercussions, so I finally listened to the lady’s story.

“I want the two of us to sneak out… And go to your room.”

“I’m scolded by the dormitory manager.”

“I want to go.”

“No.”

With the sound of hitting my chest, the lady’s eyes sharpened.

“Let’s go.”

“…I will obey your words…”

…Against violence…

Unlike me wearing a tailcoat, a lady came out wearing only a long negligee and a cardigan. I took the lead and secretly walked down the dormitory hallways, focusing on the sound as much as possible.

“I’m really excited because I’m doing something bad…”

The young lady following me, holding my right hand, shouted excitedly, but he didn’t respond. He was so focused on the sound of footsteps that he had no time to reply.

After talking to himself, he slightly waved the hand he was holding as if he was embarrassed when I didn’t reply.

“…Can you answer me?”

“I’ll answer you when I leave the dormitory. Please bear with me.”

“…”

After I said this earnestly, the young lady became quiet and followed me behind my back. When she managed to get outside, avoiding the eyes of the dormitory director and staff, a chilly wind blew for spring weather.

“It’s still chilly. It’s good that he came wearing a cardigan.”

“Isn’t it cold? Can I get you a coat?”

“…Uh…Um…Yeah…I’ll wear that too. No, put it on.”

Unbuttoning the button and putting it over the lady’s shoulder, it was a lady with a smile on her face. Do you really like wearing my clothes? I smiled as well.

“The moon isn’t that bright today. Maybe it’s because I saw that dream earlier, I’m afraid to look at the moon…”

As the lady who was looking up at the moon shuddered and shook her head, he approached and took her hand.

“If you’re afraid to look at the moon, don’t look up.”

“But, if you can’t see the sky, you can’t see the stars either.”

“You can raise your head to a place where you can’t see the moon.”

“You can’t live forever without seeing the moon. If people in the past didn’t see the moon, which changes every day, they wouldn’t have known what day of the month it was today.”

“Wouldn’t it have been better not to look at the moon since we were already calculating the month? Besides, you can ask the person next door to find out.”

“…Maybe if you live alone in a secluded place.”

“hahahaha…But if you’re scared, you don’t have to look at the moon. I’ll be by your side, so if you ask me anytime, I’ll tell you what month and what day it is.”

This time, the young lady was mesmerized by the straight punch that I just put in to see her panicked. His mouth opened and closed repeatedly, and he turned his head, perhaps conscious of my gaze.

“It’s really pathetic… No matter how hard I try…”

“Then try harder.”

For the lady to confess to me, and for me to accept her confession.

We will do our best for each other.

“…Yes, I will try. I will try again.”

Her heart fluttered at her slightly perplexed look and awkward laugh. What is the goal of the lady? Based on me… It would take a few more years.

If that’s the case, will the young lady be able to endure those years?

Confession. In short, the stage of confirming each other’s feelings before developing into a relationship of lovers. Can we stay by each other’s side until that stage comes?

“Yes, I have to work hard.”

For now, I have no choice but to say that.
