Invicinble Colorless Butler

At midnight, after completing the second stage of training, Ziel sat in the living room drinking a cup of tea. Kalya and the girls fell asleep long after dinner and only left Ziel alone.

Ziel had already made an artifact that he would use for the third-stage training tomorrow, and he didn't need to check it anymore since it was just a tool with a simple function.

"Haa…" Ziel sighed and leaned his back on the chair. He felt guilty as he recalled what had happened to the girls in their training. If not for the primeval gods coming to the continent of Clorius, he would never have trained them so hard.

While deep in thought, Ziel heard the sound of a door opening from one of the rooms in the cottage. It was already midnight, and the girls should be fast asleep from exhaustion. If any of them came out of their room at that hour, it was usually because they were thirsty or had to go to the toilet.

Ziel thought that the girl who came out of the room would immediately return to her room. But he raised her eyebrows when he heard the sound of footsteps approaching the living room. Not long after, a girl with long jet-black hair appeared wearing an elegant and sexy negligee that matched her hair color. The girl was Kyouka, and she was looking at Ziel with sleepy eyes.

The current Kyouka looks different from the first time Ziel saw her. She changed because her soul had utterly merged with Shiori and her friendship with the girls in the cottage.

Even though her appearance is not as beautiful as Azalia and Kalya, Kyouka has a unique charm similar to Princess Iris. They can be called Yamato Nadeshiko twins if they dress up and have the same hairstyle.

"Ziel? Haven't you slept yet?" Kyouka asked.

"I can't sleep. So I spent time here drinking tea until my eyes got tired. Why are you awake?" Ziel replied and smiled.

"I woke up thirsty. I went to the kitchen to get a drink because I forgot to fill the jug in my room. Ziel..." Kyouka wanted to say something to Ziel, but she hesitated.

"What's wrong, Kyouka?" Ziel asked when he saw her behavior.

"If I go back to my room, I won't be able to sleep right away. So can I accompany you here until I feel sleepy?" Kyouka said shyly.

"Of course, you can. I'd be glad if you wanted to accompany me. After all, we barely have time to talk alone during your stay at the cottage." Ziel quickly agreed.

"Thank you." Kyouka smiled sweetly and sat next to Ziel. Her face was blushing, and she felt nervous because it was her first time alone with Ziel.

"You don't need to be nervous. You will only accompany me to chat until sleepy and not do anything else. Please drink the tea." Ziel said softly. Then he poured tea for her and served it in front of her.

"I'm sorry. I'm not used to being alone with a man in this situation. But that doesn't mean I don't like it! In contrast, I'm happy to be with you now, Ken." Kyouka smiled, and the way she called Ziel reminded him of Shiori.

"How do you feel after your soul became one with Shiori? Do you regret it?" Ziel asked with concern.

"I can't explain that feeling to you in words. I feel like my usual self and not myself at the same time. But I don't regret what I did. I have gained Shiori's knowledge and life experiences about the Clorius continent in the past and about you." Kyouka answered firmly at the beginning, but her voice was barely audible at the end.

"Then, who are you? Kyouka or Shiori?" Ziel asked seriously. He wanted to confirm something with her.

"I'm still Kyouka even though Shiori's soul has merged with mine." Kyouka smiled and said confidently.

"That's good. I'm glad you can keep being you." Ziel sighed in relief after hearing Kyouka's answer. He wanted to ensure that her reason for staying in the cottage with Princess Iris and the other girls was pure because of her feelings and not being influenced by Shiori's soul.

"Yes. I know what you're thinking. My feelings were purely mine, and Shiori's soul strengthened it." Kyouka said in a low voice and sipped her tea.

"Are you used to living in this cottage?" Ziel tried to divert their conversation when he saw Kyouka's face turning red with embarrassment.

Kyouka hasn't lived with Clara and the girls in the cottage for long. Previously, she lived in the dorm with Megumi and had a particular room because she was a hero. But she found it troublesome to go back and forth from the dormitory to the cottage. So Kyouka decided to stay with the girls in that place.

When Kyouka said her intention, Megumi was sad and wanted to move in with her. But after hearing Kyouka's reasoning, she quickly dismissed it as she didn't dare mix with the girls in the cottage. Unlike Kyouka, Megumi is nobody to Ziel, and it would be unpleasant if she suddenly came to live there. So Megumi has to reluctantly let Kyouka move out of the dorm and leave her.

"Yes. The atmosphere here is very comfortable, and the girls help me adapt more quickly. The most important thing is that you are here, which makes me feel at home." Kyouka said while lowering her head in embarrassment.

"I'm glad to hear it." Ziel smiled and stroked Kyouka's hair gently.

Kyouka's body trembled but quickly relaxed. Then she closed her eyes to enjoy his treatment. This was the first time Ziel had touched her like that since she lived in the cottage. Kyouka unconsciously leaned her head on his shoulder. Ziel suddenly raised his eyebrows after he remembered something.

"When I first met you, you were crying behind a tree in this forest. You suddenly attacked me because I saw you in that state." Ziel teased Kyouka.

"That is… I'm sorry. I felt embarrassed because you saw me crying that day and was worried that you would tell the other students about it. After all, I am a hero in this world. Even though we haven't done anything to protect this continent, I don't want to ruin that title." Kyouka said apologetically.

"I'm kidding. Don't think about it too much because I also felt the same way. But may I know why you are crying?" Ziel chuckled and stroked Kyouka's head.

"I... I want to go back to Japan. When I was summoned to this continent, I panicked and was scared when they said I couldn't return to my world. But I didn't show it on my face due to my temperament. I thought this was a dream. But after several days of living in the castle of the Rubelia Kingdom, I finally realized that this was reality. Since then, I've always been quietly crying somewhere so no one else would see me." Kyouka explained sadly.

"I see. Then, do you still want to return to earth?" Ziel wanted to know how Kyouka was feeling right now. He would not keep her in this world if she wanted to return to Japan.

"If I answer that I don't want to return to earth, I will lie to you and myself. Even though my life in Japan is boring, I still have a family. I didn't mean to leave you and the others! I want to return to Japan and see my family before accompanying you forever." Kyouka honestly told her feelings.

Ziel smiled when he heard Kyouka's answer. He pondered for a bit and then opened his mouth.

"Can you tell me about your life in Japan?" Ziel asked. He was curious about Kyouka's life before she was summoned to this world and wanted to know the situation in Japan after hundreds of years had passed.

"You want to know about my life while in Japan? My life is very boring. Are you sure you want to hear it?" Kyouka glanced at Ziel. She didn't think that Ziel would make such a request.

"No problem. I want to know more about you and Japan of your time." Ziel whispered.

"Okay! If that is your wish, I will tell you all about me!" Kyouka replied enthusiastically and began to talk about her life in Japan.

Kyouka told Ziel everything about her. She started with her family, school, friends, and what she did until the day she was summoned to the Clorius continent. The story took over an hour, and Ziel listened carefully.

Ziel was surprised when he heard the story from Kyouka because the time on the Clorius continent and earth was very different. It has been nine hundred years since he was summoned to this world, but only three years have passed on earth.

"I was also surprised when my soul merged with Shiori and got her memories. I didn't expect such a huge time difference between earth and the Clorius continent." Kyouka continued after seeing Ziel's expression.

"Once we have resolved the matter regarding the primeval god, I will find a way to bring you back to earth." Ziel looked at Kyouka and promised. He did so not only because he wanted to fulfill Setsuka's wish but also to find out about his grandfather, whom he had left for three years.

Ziel must know the exact coordinates of the earth to do that. He didn't want to open a portal and get lost in a world he didn't know about. To find the earth's coordinates, Ziel had to retrieve his memory core from the divine race, or Azalia, to be more precise. He has two options for doing so.

The first is by forcefully extracting it, and this is the easiest and fastest way, but it will kill Azalia. The second is to take it slow when he has sex with her. Of course, Ziel would choose the latter because he would never hurt Azalia.

"Is it true? Are you serious?" Kyouka was shocked by Ziel's words. She didn't expect Ziel to promise her such a thing.

"Of course. But you have to wait patiently. I can't leave the Clorius continent in peace before defeating the primeval gods." Ziel said seriously.

"I will wait as long as I can return to Japan to see my family!" Kyouka was excited and couldn't hide the happiness on her face. She held Ziel's hand tightly and looked at him with teary eyes.

Ziel smiled and stroked Kyouka's cheek gently. Unknowingly, the distance between the two narrowed, and Kyouka closed her eyes nervously. After that, their lips touched and pressed against each other. They kissed lightly and quickly regained their distance.

"You better return to your room because we have training in the morning. I want you to train in top condition." Ziel whispered and kissed Kyouka's forehead.

"Okay. But before that, can we do that again?" Kyouka said, blushing.

Ziel nodded slightly and kissed him again. Kyouka wrapped her arms around Ziel's neck and responded excitedly. The two kissed passionately and forgot they were in the living room. Even so, Kyouka and Ziel didn't care and continued to share their love until both were satisfied.

***

On a slightly cloudy morning, Ziel and the girls had gathered at their training ground. Ziel took a purple crystal ball from his storage space and threw it into the sky.

The girls were confused by his actions but remained silent and waited patiently for it to finish. After that, the crystal ball shone dazzlingly, and a colossal barrier covered the entire forest area up to the sky.

"What will we do in the third stage of training, Ziel?" Kalya couldn't help but ask after seeing Ziel's actions.

"Don't you already know?" Ziel smiled and soared into the sky.

"After you have strengthened yourself in the first and second stages of training, then in the third stage, you will hone your combat skills by fighting against me. Attack me with your full power like you want to kill me. I will only use fifty percent of my strength. The training is over if one of your attacks can hit me." Ziel unleashed his power, and a terrifying oppressive aura suppressed the girls.

"Ugh!" Kalya and the others suddenly fell to their knees because the pressure was far different from what they had felt in the first stage of training.

"Come to me with your full power. I won't kill you, but that doesn't mean I'll go easy on you. Get ready to be seriously injured in this battle." Ziel said coldly. Then several asteroids appeared from the sky and fell towards the girls.
