chapter 14
I said with a grin.
“Oh, and you come to wake me up every morning.”
“I’ll continue to live in the mansion, so it’s not difficult, but why?”
“Imagine waking up seeing your face every day and waking up seeing a black man’s face. You feel dirty from morning.”
Arin didn’t say anything. But for a moment, I felt the corners of her mouth go up.
“Did you laugh?”
“no.”
“I think you laughed?”
“Not at all.”
**
I left Arin and came out of the room when the servants were getting ready to leave.
“Is there anything you need, Archduke?”
“no it’s okay.”
One of the servants who saw me spoke first.
Come to think of it, this is the first time a servant has spoken to me first.
“Yes. Then.”
“Good work.”
“thank you.”
Servants always greeted me with fearful eyes and disappeared as if they were running away. It was the first time I had such a reaction.
Come to think of it, I received support yesterday, and now my image is starting to change!
“The Archduke is over there again.”
“So what are you doing?”
The two maids who were sweeping the first floor were quietly talking about me. The two of them talked in a whisper, but my ears had already surpassed human hearing, so I could hear all of their conversation.
“In the past, I was so scared that my body would tremble just by passing by, but now…”
“now?”
“Honestly, isn’t it cool? I thought Lee Gongja-nim was the most handsome, but Grand Duke-nim was the best.”
The maids kept talking while glancing at me.
“You said in the past that you didn’t want to work in the mansion because you were afraid of the Archduke.”
“This guy! That was then, and the Archduke is different now. His appearance and personality have all changed, so my mind has also changed.”
“Oh, so yesterday, ‘Grand Duke, please do your best.’ did you scream?”
You were the one who cheered me on yesterday. Thank you very much.
“Whoa! How do you know that? You missed work yesterday.”
“Rumours are out that Tyren is in love with the Archduke.”
It’s called ‘Tyren’. I will definitely remember.
“Ugh.”
“But it’s definitely against the law to have a face like that.”
“So. It’s really cool.”
Because my face now is different from before. It’s understandable that they say that.
It felt so good to be acknowledged by people.
By the time the maids were done cleaning the floor and tidying up the tools, the guy I was looking for came out into the lobby.
here it is
I watched him and used my new skill.
[Use Confidential Confidentiality.]
Confidential transmission of voice, or simply transmission, is a martial art that secretly transmits voice. My voice can be transmitted only to the person I designate without being heard by other people.
[hey.]
“omg!”
Of course, the target I used whole tone was Peru. Surprised, he grabbed his ear with his hand.
[Don’t be surprised, listen. I am Yuren.]
“Hee!”
Perhaps it was too irritating not to be surprised, Peru continued to flinch.
“Peru why?”
“Oh, nothing.”
Others came out to the lobby at Peru’s scream.
[Come to my room tonight.]
Peru groaned and nodded.
“I’m scared.”
After talking to Peru, I went into the room and operated the Mandokja Telegraph. After reaching the 3rd grade, it was okay to practice the inner core method at any time because you can feel the energy from the outside even during training.
smart.
Peru is here
“come in.”
“Meet the Grand Duke.”
“How are you?”
“yes…”
It’s not a face that looks good at all. You can see the dark circles.
“What did you call for today?”
“You will change jobs sooner or later.”
“yes?”
I immediately got to the point.
“The Marquis will designate you as my butler.”
“Eh?”
I told Perun what I had said to the Marquis.
“That’s right.”
“There’s nothing wrong with you accepting the role of my butler. It’s a huge opportunity, and you’ll suspect it’s odd to miss it.”
“Yes.”
“After you become a butler, Karox or Kaina will give you more instructions. More poison, or more poison.”
“I think so.”
Peru nodded eagerly as if agreeing.
“They will be even more nervous because of my performance yesterday.
“I saw it yesterday too. It was really cool.”
“Thank you. Anyway, get a lot of money from them and buy a snake mind.”
“If it’s a snake mind, it’s poison extracted from a hundred poisonous snakes.”
“that’s right.”
Peru, like a poisoner, knew what it was just by hearing its name.
“Take whatever money you have from them and buy poison.”
“Ah, I see.”
“Oh, and there’s no poison left?”
“Yes? The poison I gave you then…”
“I ate it all that day.”
“omg!”
I could read Peru’s faded pupils. That guy no longer saw me as a human being. It seemed to frighten me.
“Is the Archduke over there a wizard?”
“Wizard?”
“Yes. Same with the message magic from earlier.”
He seemed to think of telephony as message magic.
“I heard that there are warlocks who deal with poison with magic, unlike poison magicians like us who deal with poison directly.”
“okay?”
“Yes. The paralytic poison that poisoned me before is likewise, and the Archduke is not a black magician.”
Since the image of a black magician isn’t bad yet, it doesn’t matter if you call him a black magician. It’s been a while since they reveal their true colors.
“I-I asked a question…”
When I didn’t say anything, Peru shuddered as if it was frightened.
“Think of it as you like. First of all, did you understand everything I said?”
“Yes. So, do you buy all poisons with Snakemind?”
“Um, first of all, buy about 5 bottles, and if you have money left, buy several. Just because you don’t need the ones you bought before.”
Poison will help if you eat anything.
“Okay, but what do you use them for?”
“where?”
“Yes. We pack them according to their purpose.”
“Oh, that’s right. I’ll eat them all.”
“omg…”
Peru was now staring at the floor in a cold sweat.
“Then go out.”
“Yes, yes. I’ll go! Have a hard time. No, I’m sorry. Good job.”
That guy was too scared.
**
The work was done in an instant.
A few days later, Peru was designated as the butler, and Arin immediately joined the training of the Knights after completing the handover for a week.
Arin, whom I see every morning, seems to have brightened up a little, as if he had adapted well to the training of the Knights.
“It’s time for the Grand Duke to wake up.”
“and…”
“Why is that?”
“Every day a beauty wakes me up and then a man wakes me up, so it’s pissing me off.”
“Eek!”
Today was the day Arin went outside for training, so I had no choice but to have Peru come to wake me up.
After all, Arin needs to wake up.
“You hate it so much.”
“Look at your face. Isn’t it obvious?”
“Ugh. Still, I have news that the Grand Duke might like.”
“ok?”
Peru pulled out a small pouch from her bosom.
“That bag, no way.”
“Yes. Finally, the item the Archduke has been waiting for has arrived.”
Intermediate level achieved!
If the poisons I had learned so far were poisons to subdue the opponent, the poison I learned this time was a deadly poison that could kill the opponent.
It was a blood-splitting work (噴血酌) that was opened by eating the snake mind that collected poison extracted from poisonous snakes.
“Hey Grand Duke?”
“why?”
Peru pulled out a small vial containing the snake mind from her magic bag and called to me.
“Even a single drop of this is a very dangerous poison.”
“know.”
“Are you sure you want to eat it? This is much more poisonous than the poison I gave you before.”
“I know, man.”
Feeling anxious about something, Peru pulled out the poisoned bottle.
“Ummm…”
Peru frowned in concern.
But this guy is not my concern. I’m worried that if I die, the map will die too.
This guy still thinks he’s poisoned with first poison.
widely.
“This is all.”
“Five bottles as ordered.”
“yes.”
It was about 500 ml.
“And I bought this with the money I had left over.”
Peru pulled out a glass bottle of a different color from her bag.
What’s this.
[Creator’s Eye activates.]
[Poison of Fire Frog]
Only one fire frog out of a thousand is born with poison. A fire frog born with poison becomes the leader of the group and protects the group with its poison. If you are poisoned by the fire frog’s poison, you will feel a terrible pain that burns your body from the inside.
Wow I can’t imagine this, it must hurt so much.
“You know?”
“It’s fire frog poison.”
“Ha, you really don’t know anything.”
Peru shook her head as if she admired me.
“Actually, I haven’t tried it either. It’s expensive, but there’s very little in stock, so I bought it once. Was it okay?”
“Yes. Good job.”
In the meantime, I found a poison that can be obtained with fire frog poison.
[With flame poison] – Opened by ingesting fire frog poison.
I can unlock two lethal poisons today.
“First you bring rice.”
“Bob?”
“Of course. Just like you shouldn’t drink alcohol on an empty stomach, you shouldn’t eat poison either. Doesn’t the poisoner know that?”
“Is that so?”
“So. Serve it generously.”
“yes.”
As soon as Peru went to the kitchen, she immediately returned with food.
“It’s so fast. But what are you doing?”
“yes?”
Peru brought two servings of chilein soup.
“If I said generously, you wouldn’t have to bring steak, bread, or chicken.”
“Arin-nim told the archduke to only serve chicken soup.”
“Kuh…”
Arin, this guy.
“Then shall we change?”
“It’s okay. Time is wasted. You should go out now.”
“Yes? Can I help you?”
“How can I help you?”
At my words, Peru looked up at the ceiling for a moment, wondering what she could do.
“Not at all.”
