Become Tyrant On My Own Way
Chapter 10 – GREAT BUTLER
Several days passed since the storming of the stormy wave of centipede monsters. Now, the life of the residents of the suburban city of Painfinn again goes on as usual as if nothing had ever happened.
Three days after the attack, coincidentally a very talented grandfather who took care of the household got lost in our town since he managed to escape the assault of bandits who plundered the caravan of the group of grandparents.
Regarding the talent of the grandfathers were extraordinary, I also now hired him as a butler who takes care of the household affairs of the City of Painfinn.
Of course I still suspected him since his unusual arrival, hence for the fatal affair involving the fate of many people in the city, he said, I still entrust it to Curtiz to hold it while I always watch over the talented butler with my familiar.
Thanks to my familiar existence that can reach every corner of the place, I feel safe not to be stabbed in the back.
Jilk, that's how the grandfathers were called, really did an amazing job as butlers. Like the one I just told him to build Yasmin's private aquarium, which contains magic to isolate the temperature. He really did it according to the taste I wanted.
Now, I no longer worry about having to take Yasmin wherever I am, even to dangerous places, ever since I had this magic aquarium so I could leave Yasmin in it without worrying anymore if Yasmin would get sick from suffering a heat stroke.
“How, Master? Are you satisfied with the aquarium?”
“Hmm. Very satisfied. Super duper satisfied! I'm even surprised where you can order such a luxury item.”
“There are dwarves living in the south of the extremely talented Vlonhard Empire making craft items out of glass. I ordered it from there, Master.”
“Hmm. Good job, Jilk. You are indeed reliable.”
“Thank you for the compliment, Master. In that case, because there are no more needs, I'm sorry to leave.”
As Jilk said that, he left while bowing his head politely.
After Jilk left my private room, I watched Yasmin in her new aquarium with great pleasure.
“Moooo.”
“How, Yasmin? Do you like your new home? It feels more comfortable than staying constantly in my stuffy shirt bag?”
“Moooo.”
This time Yasmin meowed in a tone that sounded sad. Maybe it was as a signal that he rejected my words just now. She loves her new home, but living in her master's pocket is just as fun.
I also involuntarily smiled happily watching Yasmin's cute behavior.
Albert was no longer clinging to my side since he was now busy training the soldiers of Painfinn City with Fernand. Apparently, since the last monster attack in which Albert showed his extraordinary performance restraining the movement of the centipede queen then quickly ran to save himself from the giant fireball Nunu, the, he became famous among the soldiers.
If anything were to bother at my side right now, it was the little red-eyed girl with snow-white skin who was unceasingly clinging to me. He is Nunu, the magician who was the key to the destruction of the previous monster wave thanks to the impact of his devastating attack. Well, unfortunately it is only one use every day.
“Hey, Nunu, aren't you too attached to me?”
“Hehehehehehe, what can you do Mr. Helios. You see Mr. Helios' chest is so soft and cold, it is very comfortable to sleep on.”
Ever since I told him not to be too formal with me since he had been considered my man, along with the loss of formality in his speech, his respect for me had also faded.
“I haven't known about such rigid royal laws since I came from an island nation in the south there. If they will come to arrest me, I can immediately escape to my native land. Besides, the weather's really hot in here. The only thing adem is Mr. Helios' chest.”
“Hah.”
I could only sigh at the change in Nunu's attitude that suddenly became so insolent. Fortunately, I was only at the border of the city at the moment. What if this happens in the capital and my fiancee sees it? It's definitely going to be a big fuss.
But I more or less understood the meaning of Nunu's words. Nunu lived in the southern islands with a cooler weather climate than in this place so if the heat peaked in the middle of the eighth month like now, he would definitely be very impervious.
While I was born with the ice element, it would definitely still emit cold air from inside my body in any hot weather.
It is unfortunate, I am a very handsome prince, who before the prophecy of tyrant when I was five years old, to the point of being the target of many girls like me, it should be treated like this.
And I understand very well that Nunu has absolutely no erotic desire for me. I treated him as a room cooler.
“Mooooo!”
“Aduh.”
I suddenly awakened in my daydream as soon as I saw Yasmin suddenly just bite into Nunu's hand with an angry expression in her eyes.
“Look, even my ice turtle was angry because of your insolent attitude towards his master. Well, already. Now it's time to get back to work.”
“Good.”
After I persuaded a while, Nunu finally complied to return to his guard post.
Since the storming of the centipede monster wave was also where Nunu displayed an extraordinary performance in defeating the centipede queen in one devastating attack, famour Nunu in the eyes of the people of Painfinn City, and the, including also in his magic guild, it seemed to have increased.
Now, he is no longer ridiculed as a broken witch, but quite the contrary, now many praise him for his extraordinary magic potential.
But unfortunately, for his ugly name, he sometimes still gets ridiculed. The difference now, those who mocked him no longer dared to mock him from the front, but sometimes secretly cursed him behind without Nunu's knowledge.
Well, since Nunu had in principle not heard the taunts anymore, so it felt safe to leave.
The import of magic crystal stones that came from the high-level monster core that was defeated into the Magic Academy went well and actually generated such a huge income in my pocket that I no longer needed to worrying about funds included when I ordered the magic aquarium through Jilk.
Of course seventy percent of the fixed income I channeled into the city treasury since the sales rights of the magic crystal stones that could enter the city executioner's treasury were only at a maximum of thirty percent beyond taxes which must be paid to the kingdom under the rules of the Kingdom of Meglovia.
For the magic cores from the low-level monsters themselves that produced the less valuable crystal stone shards, I processed them directly through my alchemy talent into higher-quality items.
Some of it I sell, but most of it I keep myself for personal use since there is no royal rule that prohibits the monopoly on the utilization of low-level magic crystal stones.
Everything has been going well lately which makes me very happy. However, who would have guessed that right that night as well, another wave of monsters arrived. And it was a wave of undead monsters with a high-level lich at its center.
