"Miss Vivian, now we have to go to see our Earl's daughter, Miss Liz."
While going up the stairs, Butler Robert looked around him. It was obvious that Vivian had become nervous since entering the mansion and castle. He smiled soothingly and said:
"To tell you the truth, our eldest lady is just like you, Miss Vivian, she is very kind and friendly to others, and she doesn't have much of an eldest lady airs at all. Believe me, you will know it once you meet, Liz. The eldest lady is very easy to get along with."
"Plus you are similar in age and both are spell casters, so you will definitely become friends soon."
"Really! This...is like this! That's great. I'm worried that I don't know much etiquette and might make the eldest lady unhappy..."
After Butler Robert's words, Vivian relaxed slightly, and the hands hidden on both sides of her cuffs became less clenched.
But the mage Lake next to him twitched the corners of his mouth.
As for the reason...
Soon Vivian also knew.
Snapped!
Click!
There was a loud sound of a vase falling to the ground from upstairs, followed immediately by a sound of pain as if someone was injured, followed by exclamations and panicked apologies.
Butler Robert, who had been smiling at Vivian just now, chatting and laughing, seemed to be very kind and easy to talk to, but when he heard the movement from the staircase corridor above, his expression immediately darkened.
"I'm sorry, Miss Vivian, I'm going to take care of things first." Butler Robert frowned and had a sullen face. After leaving these words, he quickened his pace and went straight upstairs.
The people in the corridor upstairs seemed to have heard the rapid footsteps coming from below. After taking a glance from a distance, they discovered that they happened to bump into Robert the Butler after he returned...
"What a waste! He can't even clean a vase!"
"What's the use of hiring a clumsy maid like you in the Thistle family!?"
"Get out of here and take your things with you. I don't hope I can see you in the castle tomorrow. Do you understand?"
A girl with a beautiful appearance and fair skin, wearing a classic gothic knee-length skirt of an aristocratic style. The calves under the knees are wrapped in stockings. She is slender and graceful. Finally, she is paired with small and exquisite brown leather shoes. She looks like a doll. , at this moment, she made a move that was somewhat contrary to her image.
I saw a beautiful girl full of aristocratic temperament, but now she had an expression of disgust and was scolding a maid kneeling in front of her.
The reason is self-evident. The broken vase on the ground beside the maid was the cause of the incident.
"Miss Liz." Butler Robert approached and was the first to bow to the scolding girl.
However, Liz did not pay attention to the big housekeeper first. Instead, she faced the maid who was still trembling with fear and could only keep kneeling to apologize, and cursed again:
"Are you deaf!? Can't you hear what I just said? Get out of here!"
Seeing that the maid seemed to be frightened and refused to leave, Liz, who was angry and anxious, even kicked the maid with her leg without caring about her image. The maid finally came to her senses and quickly collected the fragments of the vase. When you're done, leave quickly.
During this period, Butler Robert's face was as gloomy as a dark cloud. He was the steward of all servants, and the reason why he was able to achieve this position of steward was his ability, but his harsh discipline and harsh punishments were also another aspect.
In Robert's opinion, breaking a vase that belonged to the Thistle family, regardless of whether it was valuable or not, was already a big mistake.
Then, what made Robert speak several times and wanted to stop the offending maid was because he noticed that Miss Liz's legs were slightly red, and she should have been broken and bleeding a little. scratches.
It is taboo and unforgivable for a servant to hurt his master, even if it is unintentional.
"Miss, next time this happens again, there is no need to trouble you to do it yourself. You only need to hand over the servant who made the mistake to us to handle the situation. I promise to give you a satisfactory answer."
Butler Robert bowed slightly and said.
Liz, on the other hand, first intentionally or unintentionally pulled down the hem of her skirt to cover the scars on her legs caused by the vase glass slag, and then raised her white chin proudly with a dissatisfied application.
"What, Robert, are you dissatisfied with my handling?"
"Absolutely not, everything is according to the wishes of the eldest lady, but I feel that your punishment is too..."
Before Robert could say "light", Liz across from him waved her hand impatiently and interrupted.
After that, the earl's daughter looked towards the two people coming behind Robert.
"Leck, I've never heard of it. Do you have any other cousins from the country?" Liz looked at Vivian back and forth.
Although Vivian had already changed out of the tattered clothes that she couldn't bear to look at at the forced request of the little wolf cub in Scarlet Flame Town, even so, compared to the ancient aristocrats like Sisir, Among the other people in the mansion, the little girl's clothes still looked out of place, and one could tell at a glance that she came from a small family.
In addition, she had just regained some confidence, but it can be seen that after Liz scolded the servant just now, Vivian became a lot more cautious.
This made Vivian's initial impression in Liz's eyes not very good.
On the other side, Mage Lake almost laughed out loud in his heart.
One of the reasons for this is that Liz was able to take the initiative to talk to him. Although it was because of Vivian, this still made Lake so excited. You have to know how many outstanding young people in Huodian City wanted to talk to Liz. Several successful ones, not to mention Liz speaking herself.
As for the second thing, of course when Lake saw Liz, he almost died laughing when he described Vivian like this.
However, I am happy in my heart, but I still have to pretend on the surface.
"Miss Liz, Miss Vivian is not my cousin, but the... uh... teacher and friend that Mr. Robert found for you?"
"What!?"
As expected, the earl's daughter widened her eyes after Lake's words. Her voice was several decibels too high, causing Vivian next to her to shrink her neck subconsciously.
Liz immediately turned her head to look at Robert again, and then she saw Robert smiling and nodding to her.
"Miss, this time Lake and I can come back safely from the disaster in the northern forest. Miss Vivian has helped us a lot. Not only is she a powerful summoner, but even Lord Damir has been very helpful to us." Miss Vivian’s magic level is full of praise.”
Robert briefly introduced Vivian to Liz.
At first, Liz still frowned, but then, when the words "Damir" popped up, the earl's daughter seemed to suddenly become energetic.
"What did you say!?" Liz once again exclaimed at a higher decibel level than she had before.
She couldn't help but breathe a little faster, as if just the name could make her heart beat faster. Liz's eyes were anxious and she said quickly:
"Wait a minute, Damir, is it... the Damir from the Vulcan Law School?"
"You...tell me carefully!"
