The time for the selection of servants for the nobles and the royal family has finally arrived. All servants have gathered and standby at their place. What servants will see is his serviceability, attitude, and appearance. If a servant has other abilities such as swordsmanship or magic it will be an added value.
The time of the event has finally arrived. Nobles of the Argaint kingdom one by one came. From count, viscount, marquis, and duke coming to get a new servant. The servants will show their best service Ability to impress the nobles. Why do they have to get to it like that? To become a servant of the noble family. Their lives and safety will be assured. The higher noble they serve, the higher their social status.
Nobles came one after another. The servant immediately gave their most beautiful smile, their best attitude, and their best serving ability.. But none of the nobles glanced at Ziel. Because no one wants to hire a bad-looking servant who wears a mask. Ziel just stayed in the corner without anyone noticing. Because ziel deliberately isolates himself from others with magic.
"I knew it was going to be like this. But I'm not feeling good about rejecting Anna-san's invitation. The seal that locks my power is begun stable. Once it's completely stable I don't need this mask anymore." Ziel said quietly while stroking his mask.
The reason why Ziel had to seal his power was that his powers became strange after he was cursed. Every time he unleashes his full power, there will be a dangerous natural phenomenon. That's why he had to seal his power. But because the seal isn't strong enough to lock his power. The side effects are magic circles and aura seals printed on his face like burns. But the seal will be stable won't be long.
"Ah, I just want to live a quiet and peaceful life in this era." He muttered softly without anyone listening to him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen Ziel was sunk into his mind. Ziel heard a noise come from the direction of the gate. There he saw two girls of the same age as him and one little girl. One girl has long silver hair is decorated with ornaments like snow crystals. Wearing a blue dress looks very elegant and luxurious. While the other girl has long golden hair with a tiara on it. In a white dress no less elegant and beautiful than the other girl. The height of the two girls is almost the same. While the little girl with them is short silver hair. Similar to one of the previous 2 girls. She's certainly a family.
Both girls are undeniable extremely beautiful and elegant. They are escorted by knights who are quite strong. One is female, and the other is male. Predictably the identities of these two girls. They were the first Princess of the Argaint Kingdom and the Aurelia Kingdom.
Ziel looked at the two Princesses. And he's Narrowing his eyes. Not because of their beauty. But because one of the Princesses has a mana's rampage.
"Amazing amount of mana. Too bad it can't be controlled. It will hurt if mana kept raging like that. Especially at night. Well, it's none of my business either."
Ziel again sunk into his mind in the corner of the venue that the banquet was held without anyone noticing. When others do not notice him he does not need to pay attention to them. From the beginning, he didn't care about this event. That's what he initially thought. But it was the little girl's voice that bothered him who was drowning into his mind and waking him back to reality.
"Excuse me, are you servant who took part in this event too?"
A little girl with silver hair greets her when she is pensive in the corner.
"Yes, I participated in this event. Can I help you, lady?"
Ziel said while slightly bowing and putting his right hand on his chest. It was the polite attitude of a servant that Ziel learned. The little girl smiled broadly when she called a lady.
"Hehehe no one called me like that before. Ah, I forgot to introduce myself. I am the second princess of the Argaint Kingdom, my name is Elise Argaint."
Elise introduced herself while pinching the end of the dress she was wearing. Although less mature, but the action is very elegant.
"I'm sorry, Princess Elise for my rudeness. And if any of my words offend you, I beg for your forgiveness." Ziel said while bowing his head.
But there's one thing that confuses Ziel. He uses magic to isolate his whereabouts, but he is still found by this little girl. Even though it's only a two-circle spell. Because the strength of Ziel is sealed then he can only use low-level spells. But still, it's amazing. This little girl is unusual.
"Ah no, I should have apologized. I just saw you wearing a mask and standing alone in the corner. Hey, can I see your face behind the mask?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I'm sorry I couldn't open it, Princess Elise. The burns mark on my face is very unsightly. It's just going to scare and disgust you."
"It doesn't matter. Let's try to show me your face."
Ziel was confused as to how to respond to this little princess's request. At that moment he heard a bell-like voice reprimanding Princess Elise.
"Elise what you're doing. Are you bothering anyone else anymore? Quickly apologize to him."
What reprimanded her was the girl with the same hair color as Elise. But longer and more mature version of Elise. With an elegant blue dress and snow ornaments on her long silver hair, she looks incredibly pretty. But before Princess Elise could answer, a male knight first shouted at Ziel.
"Hey servant, did you act insolently on Princess Elise!!"
(Aah this is troublesome)
Ziel sighs heavily in his heart thinking about what will happen later.
