Invicinble Colorless Butler

Chapter 78 - 41

Piqmentia Grand Academy, currently all the students including the teachers are enjoying the music that comes from nowhere. They looked for the source of the sound but they were amazed because the sound came from the clouds as if the musician was playing it from the sky. Finally, they gave up looking for its existence and could only enjoy it.

In the white tower, the Princesses except Princess Iris are having tea together in the garden in front of the white tower. There are Princess Aishia, Princess Freya, Princess Rinne, and Princess Reina. They were also impressed by the melody, which was the first time they heard it. Especially Princess Freya and Princess Aishia who also like music.

"Princess Aishia, who do you think played it?" Princess Reina sipped her tea and asked Princess Aishia who was closing her eyes enjoying the music.

"I don't know, but I heard that the teachers were looking for him but they said the sound came from behind the clouds." Princess Aishia overheard one of the female students talking about it earlier.

"Hmm.... Where did Princess Iris go? I didn't see her after class." Princess Rinne looked around but couldn't find her.

"Who knows." Princess Reina shrugged her shoulders.

"Ah, I have some business to attend to. So I'll go first." Princess Freya immediately got up from her chair and left that place.

"Freya, wait!" Princess Aishia tried to hold it but she was too late. Because Princess Freya runs faster.

"Have you felt anything by her nature lately?" Princess Reina looks at Princess Rinne and Princess Aishia.

"I don't know her. Maybe Princess Aishia knows something. She is her childhood friend." Princess Rinne shook her head and threw her question at Princess Aishia.

"I also don't know why she's been acting weird lately." Princess Aishia sighed and looked in the direction where Princess Freya disappeared.

***

Princess Freya who left her tea party is currently in the forest area of ??the academy. She felt that she should go there after hearing the sound of the music. After she entered the forest she felt something strange.

"Barrier? Wasn't there before?" Princess Freya was confused because every time she came there before, she had never felt a barrier. This means that the barrier was only installed recently. 

Not long after, she finally arrived at her destination. It's the place where Ziel practices spiritism. But she was amazed by what was in front of her.

"What the hell is going on!? Did I come to the wrong place? Since when was the lake here!?" She drew near to the shore of the lake. In the middle of the lake, she saw a small island and a house. There was also seen a pair of men and women. In front of them was a boxy object that looked like a musical instrument. When she saw the figure of a man who was currently playing a musical instrument, Princess Freya is fascinated.

Currently, Ziel is showing his true figure. Somehow she felt that Ziel looked different when he wore his mask with him right now. She chased after him earlier because of a prophecy she received as a child and because saw his power. But right now she was sure that she fell in love with him, not because of that. But honest from her heart. When the music stopped, Princess Freya immediately gave a round of applause.

***

Princess Freya is standing across the lake even though she is smiling, but her eyes are not. She seems to be holding back her anger and jealousy.

"Can I join you there!?" Princess Freya shouted from across the lake.

"Of course, please come here." Unexpectedly Kalya allows it.

"Uh, but how?" Princess Freya just realized she had to cross the lake to get there. She didn't have any spells that could be used to move there.

"It depends on your effort." after saying that she no longer looked at Princess Freya.

"Ziel, can you teach me this instrument?" Because there is only one chair, Kalya sits on Ziel's lap.

Princess Freya who saw it from afar gritted her teeth. She made a small barrier on the surface of the lake water. And use it as a foothold to the other side of the lake.

"I finally arrived. And you left his lap!" Princess Freya immediately approached Kalya who was sitting on Ziel's lap and pulled her. But she still didn't stand up from there.

"Leya, stand up for a moment. There's something I want to talk to you about, let's go inside the cottage." When Kalya stood up, Ziel immediately walked into the cottage.

"Nn... Alright." She followed behind him.

(Leya!? What's with that call!? And what's a cottage here for? Don't tell me?)

Princess Freya thought of many bad possibilities in her heart and immediately followed them into the cottage.

***

Inside their cottage on the chair that Ziel also made based on his memories of his past. It looks like a room with a classic and elegant feel. Currently, Ziel is making tea for the three of them.

"Ziel, shouldn't I just make it?" Kalya tries to take what Ziel is working on. But he shook his head in denial.

"You sit down, I'm used to it. So you don't have to think about it." Ziel continued to brew the tea in his hand. Kalya just smiled and sat back down. While Princess Freya just silently watched Ziel who was brewing tea.

"What are you looking at?" Kalya glared at Princess Freya.

"Hmm... Of course Ziel. He looks more handsome with gray hair." Princess Freya chuckled.

"Stop it... Your eyes are annoying him." Kalya warns her.

"Hee... Then what are you going to do if I keep staring at him?" Princess Freya provoked her. She doesn't accept that Ziel and Kalya have been like newlyweds.

"You..." Kalya was about to say something but Ziel stopped her.

"Leya, stop it." Ziel placed the cups on the table and poured tea from the teapot into their cups. Kalya nodded slightly and did not continue her words.

"I'll ask you straight away. Is there anything strange in class S?" Ziel saw Princess Freya who was sipping her tea.

"Hmm... I don't think so. Ah, wait... Come to think of it the atmosphere of the class is a bit gloomy. But that's probably just my opinion." Princess Freya tried to remember it, but it didn't seem like the incident had caught her attention.

"Leya, isn't there going to be an outdoor expedition to the Alba Mountain Range in less than a month?" Ziel asked her about the information she had told him.

"Yeah right. Is there a problem?" Kalya's face turned serious.

"Eh, there's such an activity? My homeroom teacher didn't even tell me." Princess Freya who knew nothing was shocked by what she heard. 

"There's no need to think about it. I just feel like something bad will happen. So you better be careful." Ziel looks at Kalya. She smiled and nodded slightly. She was happy that Ziel was worried about her safety.

"Did you forget I was here?" Princess Freya pouted seeing the exchange of them.

"I didn't forget you were here. Take it." Ziel threw a blood-red crystal at her. Princess Freya caught it and saw what he threw.

"Hmm... What is this? I'd prefer a ring like that than a raw crystal stone like this!" She stood up and pointed at the ring on Kalya's ring finger.

"What are you saying? Don't you want me to unseal your brother's power?" He wanted to give it yesterday but he didn't have time and all day he didn't meet Princess Freya. He also didn't want to give it when she was with the other Princesses.

"Eh? How do I use it?" Princess Freya became overjoyed after hearing what he said.

"You just have to put your mana into it." Ziel said nonchalantly. Princess Freya immediately did as he said. Gold-colored mana appeared in her hand and was absorbed by the crystal that Ziel gave to her. It wasn't long before the crystal in her hand shattered into dust, but on her palm was imprinted a magic circle.

"This? How do I use it?" Princess Princess Freya looked at her palm and looked at Ziel asking for an explanation.

"You just have to slap him." Ziel answered flatly.

"Eh? Sorry I didn't hear you. Can you say it one more time?" Princess Freya felt she misheard what he said.

"You just have to activate the magic circle and slap him, you can punch him too. That's up to you." Ziel started explaining how to unseal Prince Fritz's power.

"Are you serious?" Princess Freya still can't believe what he said. She didn't think about slapping or punching his brother to unseal his power.

"Do I look like I'm joking?" Ziel had never changed his poker face since the beginning of the conversation with her.

"So I have to slap my brother to break the seal? How can I slap him all of a sudden!?" Princess Freya subconsciously stood up from her chair and shouted. 

"Haa...that's your business. Should I think about it for you too? You can leave now because the magic circle won't last long. You have to make your decision soon." Ziel sighed heavily and took another sip of his tea. Kalya chuckled seeing Princess Freya's reaction.

"What are you laughing at? To think you could laugh like that too." Princess Freya glared at her. She snorted and stood up from her chair. She intended to go and break his brother's seal. But she suddenly stopped and remembered something important.

"Wait, then what are you doing here? And this house, who lives here?" Princess Freya looks at Kalya and Ziel.

"Of course this is his house since yesterday he lived here. So I can also meet him whenever I want." Kalya smiled and answered honestly. But the sentence provoked Princess Freya.

"What's that!? Can a student even live outside the dormitory! And what's with this house and the lake in front. When did this place turn out to be like this!?" Princess Freya's mind becomes a mess after thinking that Ziel and Kalya will meet every night. Kalya just smiled and didn't answer.

"You must return immediately, otherwise the magic circle will disappear. I will not give it a second time." Ziel's words woke her up.

"Okay I'll go, but I'll be back soon." Princess Freya ran out of Ziel's cottage. After that, Kalya who was sitting a bit far from Ziel moved and sat next to him. She rested her head on his shoulder and gripped his hands. She played with Ziel's fingers and linked her fingers with him.

"I want to stay like this all night." Kalya whispered to him.

"Yes." Ziel answered briefly and stroked her hair. Not long after that, they both fell asleep at the same time. Princess Freya who said she was coming back didn't even show her figure until the morning.
