Marquis' Express Butler

“Three tables would be fine, right? Twelve, four at a table. ”

That's what James said. He was an ordinary butler apprentice. I keep walking with my gloves tighter.

“That's not a good idea. ”

“Why?”

“Today's dinner is no one else's, and the Grand Duke of Chronos is the main character. ”

I turned my eyes to the kitchen for a moment. Ramsey and Arwen were there, and all the chefs were doing their best.

“How many dishes can you finish after they're all on fire like that? Maybe there's a menu with a crooked table leg. ”

“Oh, well, we'd better widen the table. ”

“Yes, I think it's best to line up the tables from side to side, based on this table. ”

At parties, the tables are arranged in a circle, but regular dinners are arranged on a flat date basis. I don't know about the other families, but at least in the Adeline family. That's what I learned.

Fortunately, James began to move the table to the side, making sure he understood what I was saying.

“Hnng!”

But it won't be easy. The restaurant table is a little different from the regular table. It is made much harder and more sturdy. Again, I could only hear one side of the table.

“Ugh... This is too heavy! Should I call more people? ”

Tongue!

James takes his hand off and wrists out. I shrugged.

“You've never had an apprenticeship add up, have you? ”

“Nothing. Why is that? ”

“Don't you want to take this opportunity to earn an addition point? ”

James stared at me blindly. Like, what does that mean?

“If you were an apprentice, you'd think, well, there's a lot of work going on all of a sudden. In fact, by now, there'd be rumors of a shortage of hands, but no one's coming for backup. Everyone's hungry, so they probably went to eat. But I don't think so. This is an opportunity."

“Aha! I see! ”

“So let's work hard. ”

I didn't have to take it because it was full anyway. But I wanted to help a friend who was always kind to me.

And while you're at it, I'd like to do one more for the Marquis.

I light up the heavy table by myself as if to look. James' eyes widen to see it.

“Ouch! You're carrying this by yourself? ”

“Go back and fetch me a table. Five large enough. As glamorous as possible. ”

“Got it!"

James quickly raced to the cafeteria warehouse, and I managed to attach three barely moving tables side-by-side.

And the chairs were set aside. A chair used by apprentices and lower nobles. I can't put a precious person in this chair. I placed one chair with a fabulous decoration that was well maintained on one side and eleven chairs with a slightly dull design.

“This is convenient, as it naturally settles the position of Lord Kronos without having to put a name tag on it. ”

This kind of sense requires you to be able to hear the Ace.

So I finished setting up the table and the chair. Normally it was a difficult task for three people, but there was no loss of stamina at all. because he used Mana.

I recently realized that Mana's application power is infinite. Not only does it increase strength or strength of objects, but it also stabilizes certain areas.

So I decided to use Mana generously to prepare this dinner.

I started by looking at the tablecloth James brought me.

A splendid table with red and gold thread intersected over a white cloth like snow.

“Put them all on the table. ”

“Yep!"

James acted as if he were my servant. Soon, the tablecloth was all three places.

“What should we do next? Why don't we put the dishes up? ”

“But first we need to make sure the tablecloth is clean. ”

I breathed Mana into my eyes, raising my eyesight.

If you are a butler who has worked in a restaurant for more than 10 years, you can look at it and see where the dust is and where the laundry is not good at once.

But I don't have that 10 years now. Then we have to use the tools.

“Tweezers.”

I briefly became a surgeon. James reaches out and pulls the tool out of his pocket.

With increased eyesight, I was able to tidy up the dirt and blemishes hidden everywhere.

“Phew.”

One table was finished and moved to the next table. There wasn't much dust on this tablecloth, but the problem was that there was a fine stain.

I pulled Mana up and focused on my fingers.

Whoo-hoo!

And I pressed down on his finger where it was stained. And I prayed that the place would be cleansed in my heart.

Experienced, as well as books, I was checking Mana for endless scalability. Recently, I learned that my thoughts or winds affect Mana's power.

So I wanted the tablecloth in front of me to be clean.

And a miracle happened.

The area where the fine stains were buried was white as if it had been whitened.

Then James tilted his head toward me. You were watching me do magic while you didn't work?

I don't think I've been noticed since I didn't ask. It's annoying, so I'll give you something else to do.

“James. Go to Primera right now and get the Viceroy's set of cutlery. It's for other people to use. ”

“Anything else? ”

“Nothing. That's the last of it. ”

James sprints to Huddak. I whitened the stains on the third tablecloth thoroughly.

“Very good. Very good. ”

You take a step back from the ten steps, and you realize that the tablecloth is shimmering. It seemed like I had just finished washing and sprinkled shining powder.

The Marquis will be very pleased with this.

With a satisfactory smile, I tidy up around you and wait for James to return.

“Dinnerware Colonel! ”

James shows up with a cart. Hey, you don't have a bad sense. I packed all the dishes. I don't know which one goes with the tablecloth, so I think I chose to bring them all.

“This should be enough, right? ”

“Great. Wine next. I'm wiping it again with a clean cloth. I'll set the rest of the dishes. ”

Wiping the glass shouldn't be too difficult, so I did what needed to be highly skilled first. All the dishes were cleaned with Mana and polished.

Clean napkins, forks and knives. And a white plate with colourful decoration. With the added shine of Mana, I was mistaken for a restaurant in a great hotel.

The last glass James polished, I finished all the preparations.

Then Ramsey came out of the kitchen.

I straightened my shoulders and greeted him bravely. pointing to a table set by hand.

Again, Ramsey was very fond of clapping his hands.

“Oh my! You really did this? I thought Janroff was doing it himself again. ”

“Excellent compliment. Thank you, chef. ”

“Excellent. The dishes are shiny and the tablecloth is very clean! The Viceroy will be very pleased. ”

“It's not just any food, but Chef Ramsay's food will go up, so of course you should care. ”

“Hahaha! As expected, Dylan, you're a great butler. ”

I bowed my head with a smile. This time Ramsey looks at James and nods. No particular compliment, but James was very fond of it.

Meanwhile, the kitchen seems to be running late. Something smells delicious.

I looked at the kitchen and asked.

“Is the kitchen okay? ”

“So far, so good. Everyone's insisting on winning points this time. If I don't make a mistake, there might be a good result. ”

“I hope it goes well. ”

“Thank you for your help. Gosh, I couldn't even get you dinner. ”

“Oh, never mind. I will eat it when the President finishes eating. ”

“Be sure to wait. I'm going to make you a great dinner today. ”

Chef Ramsey went back into the kitchen and continued to prepare.

Then the door opens and a butler with an unusual force enters.

But I wasn't alone. Following them were two more butlers, who, judging by the atmosphere, seemed to be lower ranked than the leading butlers.

You look familiar. Who was it?

“We have to get ready as soon as we're late. Since the Grand Duchess and the Grand Duchess have been eating together for a long time, just in case... Hmm? What?”

The butler stands in the lead, startled and stops walking. He began to look around the table, set with surprised eyes.

“You're already ready. What the hell is going on? ”

Apparently, they came to prepare their own meals. I stood in front of them with James.

James taps and shoves his back as if it were a well.

“Welcome. I'm James, Rosetta's support officer.

“…… James. ”

“Yes, yes. Sunbae.”

In the words of the Force, James is greatly diminished. If anyone sees me, I think I've committed a sin.

“Were there other butlers here before we came? Who finished preparing the dinner? ”

It was a slightly abstract tone.

James hesitates, looking at me. This is stuff.If you cook me dinner, I'll eat well. Why do you keep looking at me like that?

I stepped out.

“James and I prepared it together. The others didn't come. ”

“You two prepared this? ”

“That's right.”

The butler looked unreliable. I keep my head slightly lowered and polite.

He was wearing a different gown than the other butlers. The tie had a little more point on it, and the decoration of the badge was slightly different.

“What's your name? ”

“Dylan.”

But the butler was paying more attention to me than James.

“Dylan? I've heard that name a lot somewhere... Oh, you must be Dylan, the talk apprentice." I heard you suppressed the Knights' noses a while ago. ”

“You're pressing your nose. It's just an exaggerated rumor. ”

“Hahahaha!”

Then the butler smiled. The young butlers in the back also smiled, and I could clearly see what my image looked like. It's on the good side.

“You're very prepared. It couldn't have been easy to get it clean without dust. ”

“I just did what I learned. ”

“It's the hardest thing I've ever learned. ”

The chief butler, who finished checking the table, again stood in front of us. And take a strict backseat.

“Dylan, and James. I'll take care of you myself. Well done."

“It's an honor.”

“I'll pass it on in particular to the trainer. Now, back off. We'll take it from here. ”

I mean, who's the chief butler if you're gonna treat Vesper like a trainer? There's nothing wrong with showing your face. I was about to turn around and asked.

“Excuse me, may I ask your honor? ”

“My name is Weiss. ”

Weiss. If that's the man I know, I'm in luck today. I smiled and politely greeted him.

“Deacon Weiss. It was an honor to greet you today. If you don't mind, we'd like to help you with your dinner.... ”

“I told you to back off. ”

Immediately, the air inside became cooler.
