Became the Butler of the Second Heroine of the Harem - Chapter 104
104 – A prize for you (7)
Andre, the owner of ‘Your Wardrobe’, a clothing store located in the downtown area of the capital, was sighing.
He grew up under his parents who ran a clothing store from an early age and helped both of them work. Since he had talent since childhood, he learned to work from his parents and made his own clothes at the age of 15.
It wasn’t something he could sell at the store, but he started to build up his skills with that as an opportunity, and eventually, parts of the store became proficient enough to become popular in the town with the items he made.
At the age of twenty-five, he took the money he had saved up for his dream and went to the capital to open his own shop.
From customers who do not know the truth in their village, to people who just fill their wardrobes and buy clothes to show off to others without knowing the true value of the clothes they make.
There.
“I never dreamed that there would be so many people who buy and wear them just because they’re trendy, even though they don’t match at all.”
“But thanks to such people, the store is at least maintained. If it were not for such people, I would have left the company long ago and the boss would have been sitting on the street?”
“…Let’s close it. It looks like there are no more guests coming.”
I had to close my eyes to the painful and cruel reality told by Maka, an employee who was preparing to close next to Andre, who sighed deeply while lamenting the reality.
“I’ll start by sorting out the clothes I took out~”
“Do as you please.”
As she went outside for her deadline, he stopped her pen and leaned back in her chair as she was sorting out the day’s earnings.
His store is barely making ends meet, but the direction of his greed is not money.
“I came to the capital thinking there would be more people like that than success.”
He just wanted to be like his parents, who were happy to see the people wearing them that matched the clothes he made.
“…Should I just fold everything and go back to my hometown and take over the store?”
I was staring blankly at the ceiling, dreaming of nostalgic dreams, and lamenting the painful reality.
“Excuse me. Are you still doing it?”
“We’re preparing for the deadline…I’m really sorry.”
At the entrance of the store, he stopped lamenting at the voice of a boy who had passed his pubic hair but hadn’t gotten out of it yet, and the voice of Maka who responded.
A beautiful girl with blond hair and blue eyes, a classic beauty that looks like something out of a fairy tale book, a beautiful boy with dark hair she had never seen while living in Europa and the Empire, she was the main character who made Sirius open his mouth.
But the reason he opened his mouth wasn’t because of the looks of the two of them.
‘Why are you wearing a cloth while making that face!’
I thought I was wearing a bright red dress shirt, but it was covered in blood, and the skirt had become a rag-picker, so the spring breeze blowing at night could clearly see through.
I don’t know why they were dressed like that, but it was Andre who stood up to help the two people who looked awkward and couldn’t bear to open his eyes and see the two people who had normal faces.
“I’m still preparing for closing, but I haven’t finished. Come inside.”
Andre shakes his head at Maka, who curses with his eyes, shocked by the delay in leaving work. Seeing that, Sirius smiled shyly and entered the store.
“hahahaha…Sorry for the inconvenience.”
“…Excuse me.”
Following after, Europa came in clinging to Sirius’s back, perhaps because her inner flesh could be seen through the torn part.
“Somehow I ended up buying clothes twice a day.”
“…Keep quiet, buy some clothes and leave… You fool…”
The two of them got out of the alley and walked about five minutes to the nearest clothing store.
Originally, the two people who took the eyes of passers-by at least once walked around in more conspicuous costumes, but who could easily take their eyes off them?
Andre, your wardrobe boss, also glanced at the two of them.
When I looked at the two of them up close, I nodded my head to Maka’s opinion that there must have been circumstances after seeing their faces that couldn’t even be compared with their clothes without glasses or glasses.
And as a person who makes clothes, I became greedy. That kind of desire to decorate two people with their faces that are hard to see even in the empire, let alone in the capital, with their own clothes.
“If you’re not rude to the two of us, can I make a recommendation?”
“Is that okay? I wonder if I’m causing trouble…”
“No, please.”
As the owner of a clothing store, Andre Do, whose eyes burn with desire and passion, vows to make them look the best they can in their lives.
The two people who will be the result of his desire and passion.
Makado wants to finish from the side.
Starting from this day, your wardrobe will become famous.
Later, Andre would receive the title of one of the best craftsmen in the empire, Meister.
All four people there were unaware.

In the end, I couldn’t win the encouragement of the owner and changed into the clothes I picked out, but it was unexpectedly fine.
I was a little pressured to wear a white blouse with a long dark skirt that came down to the bottom of my chest to highlight the volume of my chest, but I was satisfied to see that Sirius was fascinated by my appearance, but I didn’t show it with my face.
From the suspicious bloody blade that helped me before coming out to the alley, I stroked the wound on my body with my hand as if I could do it before, and it wasn’t enough that it was completely healed. Put it there
I didn’t hear much about them, so I just went out to change clothes first. I was waiting to see when he would bring up the story, or whether it would go on as casually as before.
“I’m sorry, lady. You said you’d give me money, but you said you wouldn’t take it, so I was forced to give it and came out late.”
“…Are you wearing a dress shirt again? Aren’t you tired of it?”
I sighed when I saw her dressed neatly in her usual white dress shirt.
After choosing my clothes like this, Sirius wondered if he didn’t have a good eye for men.
“I just asked for it. Otherwise, I was going to dress like a noble attending an official event in the imperial castle. And if I don’t wear this, I feel a little empty.”
It’s okay to show a different side of yourself sometimes. I wanted to see him wearing normal clothes like the passers-by, not that shirt, but I couldn’t help but sigh when he was strangely stubborn about things like that.
“Yeah…If you are, that’s what it is. I’m hungry, so let’s go eat.”
It was over an hour later than the time we were supposed to have dinner. How much would it be to go to the spring-colored rainbow now?
Should I wait?
I have to get back to make sure I’m not late for curfew, but everything is messed up by the strange group.
It wasn’t enough that we were interrupted in our rare time together, and we almost lost Sirius.
I don’t know why I came back intact, but when I remembered the time when I saw my heart pounding in the demon’s hand and the fallen Sirius, I couldn’t breathe because of the rising fear.
“Lady? Are you okay? You didn’t overdo it earlier…”
“…It’s okay. It’s okay…Let’s go…”
I didn’t want to appear weak in front of Sirius. Even so, rather than me dying, his eyes were clouded by the fact that he almost lost Sirius, who was comforting him by his side.
“…There’s a park over there, so sit down on a bench and take a break.”
I didn’t respond to the warmth from his hand stroking my shoulder, so I grabbed his hand and walked along.
I didn’t want to show the tears that were about to flow down from my eyes, so I lowered my head and followed him.
The smell of fresh grass and trees that seems to come from a forest carried by a slightly cold spring breeze. And I was able to realize that I had entered the park with the cries of frogs screaming that they had woken up from hibernation.
The two of us sat on a bench in the park and were silent.
Why aren’t you saying anything? I’ll ask. It’s piled up like a mountain.

I couldn’t bear to ask first because of my shallow pride. No, just when I wanted Sirius to speak first, his scarred hand held my hand carefully.
“…Let me explain in detail what happened.”
I was ready to hear the truth coming out of his mouth. He nodded and looked at me face to face, letting me hear what had happened.
The fact that the ability of the demon I cut off was because he had the ability to rob the whole heart without hurting it by touching his chest, so I can’t tell if Sirius cut off his hand while I was fighting. There was.
“When I was knocked down like that, I managed to barely survive because I regained some of my memories. As a child of the moon, I realized my ability, but it was difficult to decapitate him right away because I hadn’t used it in a while.”
As he carefully raised his hand, the red magic gradually took shape, like the blood he had just spilled, and it became the same shape as the blade that had cut his hand.
He also told me about some of the memories he regained after he regained his magic.
When I was young, I was a child of the moon, but with the story that I was someone’s toy, I came to our territory and eventually passed out. I got angry when I saw him smiling with a shy expression, saying that he couldn’t remember who or where he tried to run away.
I was so worried, but I pinched my cheek when I saw him smiling.
“He really died and woke up, but he laughs at how funny it is.”
“Ouch… I’ve never experienced death before…”
“Are you talking nonsense, really? If you can’t get your memory back then… Just like that…”
He stroked the cheek he was pinching. The other hand also caught the ball on the other side and restrained it so that it could not escape.
“If you died like that, I would have cursed you for the rest of my life. Even if I died, I would have prayed every day to let you float on that black sea without feeling comfortable.”
I laughed like an idiot for worrying about what would happen to this stupid man I’ve been by my side for half of my life.
“I will pray every day for you to come back after wandering aimlessly like that, when I leave for the stars, so please stay by my side.”
“Where am I going to leave the young lady by my side? I have no intention of leaving the paradise I came to by running away.”
…Sirius, who normally wouldn’t be able to say a word, deftly replied back, but he couldn’t find anything to say. Tears welled up in his eyes, but today’s gentle smile made my heart race.
“But you seem to have calmed down now.”
“Yeah. I’m relieved that someone didn’t lie as usual. Shall we go then?”
I let go of the hand holding his face and stood up. He was hungry, too, and he thought that if he delayed in a place like this any longer, he wouldn’t be able to enter in time for curfew.
In the same way, I saw Sirius who got up from his seat. Seeing the area around his neck, which was a little empty under his face, where he had to look up a little, remembered the tie he had brought.
“Isn’t the area around your neck a bit empty?”
“I feel a little empty because I don’t wear my usual tie. Would you like to give me a present?”
…Why are you so quick-witted today? Without saying a word, I took a tie from my pocket and handed it to him.
“…It was originally meant to be a gift for last year’s birthday…You know, last winter…”
“There was a bit of an awkward period. Like Shaula-sama said, you really thought of it as if it were my birthday and brought it to you.”
“Yeah. And the stock tie I was wearing is also worn out, so I’m going to wear this… But don’t you take it?”
He took a step closer with a smirking smile, not accepting the tie he gave you.
“Will you give it to me, my lady? Originally, the person who received a gift from a tie buys it herself.”
“Who… Who…!”
“…When I got the stock tie, the lady gave it to me herself…But that has changed.”
“Oh, when are you talking about enemies! Stupid!”
“Wouldn’t you?”
“Do it, it won’t be enough if you do it!”
Who knew that I would become a source of trouble when I was young? He approached Sirius, who was pinning his waist, and kicked his calf.
“…Keep your back down, it’s uncomfortable to tie.”
“Yes, yes.”
A tie was wrapped around his slightly bent neck, but his hands couldn’t move.
That’s because I don’t know how to tie a tie…!
I had to hang it here and there until it became a strange shape and I had to untie it a couple of times before Sirius noticed it, and Sirius’s hands grabbed mine.
“I’ll take this opportunity to teach you how to wear a tie. Without me and Luitena, you’ll have to learn how to wear it yourself.”
“…Yes, please.”
In the end, I was slowly learning how to tie a tie with his help.
“By the way, lady, do you know the meaning of presenting a tie?”
“You know… You…”
Wanting to know who was a fool, I looked down at my anger, and I fell silent at his mischievous smile. As I said before, it was because it reminded me of the stock tie I bought for him as a birthday present when I was young.
“Then can I take it that way?”
The meaning of giving a tie as a gift is ‘I want you.’ And it sounded like I was saying that.
It’s mischievous. Even so, he couldn’t deny what Sirius said. It’s the tie I brought today for that purpose in the first place.
“…Think whatever you like.”
I finished it off by putting the long body of the necktie into a knot tied here and there to make a shape.
I tightened my tie a little tighter in return for my little joke, and laughed at him clearing his throat.
“Kek, kek… You really do too much.”
“It’s a punishment for a butler who plays with his master.”
“You always find a butler only when you do.”
Sirius, who was tidying up by shaking the tie around and touching the collar, looked into my eyes and opened his mouth.
“My lady, there is something else I would like to receive besides this tie.”
“Did you finally think of something you want to receive? Tell me anything. I’ll do what I can.”
My heart was pounding. How long did he wait and think about what he wanted to finally come out of his mouth?
His eyes, slightly strained, looked more serious than ever. When I was a little nervous, wondering if it was hard for me to listen, he took a step closer and opened his mouth.
“I’ll take your first love.”
“…!”
Without a chance to be surprised, Sirius’s lips wrapped around my waist softly wrapped around my lips.
Like I said, it was the lovely first kiss I wanted.
It wasn’t a fancy space, but it was a real first kiss with a confession from the coolest person to me.

“In this way, all the guests who visited our spring rainbow were satisfied with the couple in March!”
As Shaula said, not long after the surprise event held by manager Chen, three people came out of the spring rainbow.
“In the end, the lady and the butler didn’t come.”
“I wonder if it was really my mistake. It was definitely a reaction that would come.”
“Even monkeys have a way of falling from trees. But I’m satisfied because I had a good look.”
The two nodded at Nepheli’s words. There was no time to laugh at the scene where two students who seemed to be around their age were shaking and kissing fresh at an event they had never seen before.
“I can’t believe you two did that last year.”
“I see. I can’t believe you took part in such an amazing event without telling us.”
“Should I ask you how I felt when I see you tomorrow?”
Chicken instead of pheasant. The three satisfied enough stopped by the park before returning to the academy.
It was because I wanted to breathe the air of the forest instead of the air in the city, as well as to digest the stomach that was not going out because I kept ordering food while waiting for the two main characters of the day.
“Parking at night isn’t bad either.”
“Luy Thena is too confined. She thinks it’s okay to go out like this with Miss Europa’s permission once in a while…”
“Shh…”
Nefeli, who was walking in the lead, stopped the two people who were talking. As soon as she hid her body in a thick bush, the two followed Nefeli’s gaze and opened her mouth in surprise.
I could have imagined that scene, but the journey of the two people who thought I couldn’t yet.
Blood dripped from Shaula’s nose as she watched the scene where Sirius and Europa hugged and kissed each other.
It was a hot spring when the spilled blood poured down on the grass and created poisonous smoke.
