Chapter 1: Deculein (1)

“It’s quiet, so it’s comfortable, but…… doesn’t this make you feel anxious?”

Recently, the atmosphere around the Yukline mansion had quieted down. Silence was rather unusual in this magnificent mansion that’s considered the best in this world.

“Hey, don’t say that. Don’t worry about it. Just stay still, stay still”

The unusual calmness was awkward for the maids and servants of the mansion, but after a week, they were able to adjust to it.

“Oh, do you perhaps think that it’s because things are going well with Miss Freyden?”

At the young maid’s question, the other maid shook her head.

“Ei. Do you really think so? I think it’s the opposite.”

“Really? I’m confused because I’ve only been here in this house for a week and they don’t even check the cleaning.”

“Enjoy it. Since we don’t know how long it’ll last……”

The servants were chatting about the strange changes in the mansion’s owner.

“Has this ever happened before?”

“Well. It’s been 10 years since Lord Deculein has been in office…….”

Their owner was so famous and sensitive, so there were many anecdotes that came to their minds that the flow of the conversation completely changed.

It was at that moment.

Creaaak

The front door was opened wide and the sound of shoes echoed through the hall.

Clack, clack

A cool and sinister echo.

The maids rushed to line up quickly in front of the unexpected visitor.

“……Where is that man?”

The VIP who posed this sharp question was a beauty with short-cut, black hair.

“Yes, right now, the master is…….”

Yeriel, their master’s sister, was equally well-known for being as sensitive as him. Her presence made the maids bow.
