The Demon Dragon Knight Becomes a Servant
Chapter 8: Home and Family
True to Touya's words, Reina immediately smiled broadly at hearing him.
Suddenly, in the middle of the situation, something went wrong. Reina, who was still not wearing clothes and only covered in blankets, now became clearly visible from the top of her head to the tip of her feet.
Touya who realized this immediately opened his eyes wide related to his spontaneous male instinct.
“Ara... We focus too much talking until I forget still not wearing anything ya~”
Reina was pierced with laughter as if it was no problem.
However, Touya experienced a distant difference with Reina's response. Although the one with the body was not too much trouble, but his male instincts made Touya become nosebleed and his face flushed with embarrassment.
“Pa-wear is something!!”
Brak…!!
Touya immediately came out while taking his top clothes located on the table. The door that was slammed open immediately led him to run in a hallway that was so big.
On the other hand, Reina simply smiled seeing the sweet response from Touya.
“Khuhu, she is really funny once”
***
After what had happened, Touya went around inside the mansion all by himself. More precisely, he was lost.
“Jeez... This house is huge. I've even been spinning for more than 15 minutes, and I can't find a way out!”
As Touya walked, his footsteps came to a halt as he turned toward the sunlight that was drifting through the windowpanes.
His footsteps led Touya to go near the window and see the backup behind it. Unlike the house in general, the house looks very luxurious with a spacious garden and full of servants who are taking care of flowers and plants.
Not only that, the pool and also the fountain itself also looks like a very common decoration in the spacious garden. And the flickering of the little bird that sings ria makes Touya feel very comfortable and calm.
“Yeah, even though this house is too big. But it feels very comfortable once”
Looking at the beautiful garden, it made Touya imagine how terrifying it was when the plant was in the age of the demons under the rule of Alphorius.
That beautiful garden must have turned into a garden full of blood. And the color of the flower will look the same as blood red. And being trampled on the ground like having no beauty to admire.
Recalling the story explained by Reina made Touya look back on himself. Someone who doesn't understand the devil at all, or a fight. Now it is said to be the son of the devil who overthrew the cruelest king.
It was impossible for Touya to not tremble every time he thought about it. He even looked at his hands that could not stop trembling like a pitiful person.
“No. I promised that I would take it. It's useless to complain now!”
His already rounded determination cannot be swayed by the imaTouyaasi.
And suddenly, from behind him came the voice of a woman calling out to him.
“Mr Touya”
“Uh?!”
Touya turned around and saw a very charming servant. Although covered by his servant's clothes, but the aura released by the servant was very mature and had a powerful facial and body appeal.
Touya himself was stunned and stared blankly when he saw the servant.
“Sorry to disturb you. My name is Alicia Fognar, butler or maid inside the residence of Miss Reina”
“A-ah yes! W-what is it?”
“Nona Reina is waiting in her room. Please pass here, you will I inter”
In accordance with Alicia's words, Touya was carried by him through the large hallway of the house. While walking there, the awkward Touya began to open the conversation.
“He-hei... This house is huge. Did Miss Reina just stay alone with the servants?”
“True. Miss Reina was given this house as her residence in the human world by her parents”
“Ah, so this place still exists in the human world huh? I thought I was transported to hell. Ah-!”
Touya forgets and his mouth carelessly says the word ‘neraka’. He who does not know the true identity of Alicia, has assumed it made a mistake.
“No need to worry, Mr. Touya. I am also a devil, just like you”
“E-eh, so yes.. I guess I was too worried huh...”.
“True. My family, Fognar is a servant who has been hereditary in the service of Miss Reina's family. And the maids you see here are all demons too”
Hearing Alicia explain herself being a hereditary servant, made Touya astonished for one thing.
“Wait, is Miss Reina's surname not Kurashima?”
“Not. Kurashima is just a pseudonym that the lady uses to blend in with human life. His real surname is Alloces. The first daughter of the demon king Zephkiel Alloces”
“So it's her real family name yes...”.
From that short conversation, Touya suddenly felt a pull holding his shirt. His footsteps instantly came to a halt in an instant and made him look back.
“You.... Who?”
The question that came from the girl that Touya saw from before his eyes. His small body was like a 10-year-old. Long blonde hair that is in a barrel with white skin. Shirt like a uniform with a short skirt covering the thighs up.
Touya who saw the little boy also responded in a style how with him respond to small children in general. That is, raising his hand and gently stroking his head while answering with a smile.
“Little child? Wait, whose child are you?”
The flat face of the little boy did look unchanged. But his eyebrows and twitching eyelids showed he was upset.
His hands clenched firmly as if preparing to throw a powerful fist. However, Alicia who came by interrupted the conversation….
“Nona Haru's. Miss Reina called you into her room as well. Please come with me and Mr. Touya”
Alicia deliberately cut off the conversation between the two of them. Otherwise, Touya could end up as a melted cheese from his fist.
While on Touya's side, he was a little surprised at Alicia who called the little girl ‘nona’.
“Hm, miss?”
“Sorry makes you confused, Mr. Touya. Let me introduce”
“He is Miss Miyazono Haru, one of the tall people in this residence with Miss Reina”
“Aahh, it turns out so. Haru yes...”.
Haru glanced towards Touya with an extremely unfriendly look in his eyes. It was as if he had no love for it from first sight.
But, Touya returned the glare of his sharp eyes with his innocent smile. He extended his hand right in front of Haru.
“It's nice to meet you. My name is Miyaji Touya”
For some reason, the sharp eyes of Haru disappeared completely. The outstretched hand and the innocent smile from Touya felt so warm. There is no intention behind it. Only pure, an innocent and kind nature was written clear of his aura and presence.
However, of course Haru was not being honest directly. She timidly threw away her face and walked past him.
While Touya himself, stood with a broken heart if he was rejected coldly by a little girl.
“Ah... so yes...”.
“(Usually, I get along quite well with little kids. But, I guess not all kids are the same)”
That feeling of disappointment was still etched within him from being too shocked.
While on the other hand, Haru who walked past him also approached Alicia.
“Sister Alicia. Sister Reina does not need to call with a formal designation like that”
“Sorry profusely, Miss Haru. But, I am the servant of the Alloces family. Calling a person who is considered a close friend or guest of the residence of this house directly by name, it would be very rude to me”
Alicia's very determined nature at the job as a servant impressed Touya, as well as astonished. Because from anywhere, Alicia doesn't look so different from her.
Although he has a mature body and aura, Touya feels confident that he is still at an age that is not much different from him. However, the slight age difference is enough to show how different the principles and determination of Alicia with herself. Only by seeing him deeply cling to the hereditary work of his family.
