Chapter 363
Just a month and a half ago, we visited my hometown, Estonia, Sagadi.
Everyone was surprised when they saw the mansion of the von Walden family.
They were surprised again when the butler Wilhelm appeared at the front door.
Yes. It was the same in
I was always the one who was higher than anyone else.
I, who had the pride and self-esteem of the crown prince deep in my bones..........
"Butler?"
"Oh, wait, oh, wait! I think I got this completely wrong?"
"Look at Yubin's expression. Hey, he's already thinking strange thoughts. 100%."
"...... Hoho."
I have to become the daily butler of my younger brother who has such a sinister expression.
This must be a dream.
If I recall, I started out as a slave during the New Year's special last year.
But back then, I turned my life around with a coin in just an hour and immediately escaped from slavery.
So it didn't really hit me mentally.
"How long do I have to act like a butler?"
"Until the clock strikes exactly 12 AM."
Until 12 AM?
Doesn't that mean all day today?
No matter how much I wash my eyes and check the clock, there's at least half a day left.
Kang Si-yoon, who already sensed a crisis, sat down with a dejected expression.
"Somehow, from the beginning of today, the mission card emphasized 'tremendous penalty' a lot."
"I agree, Si-yoon."
"Hey, how did we end up like this again?"
"Come to think of it, didn't we start off last year's New Year's with Siyoon and Karis being slaves?"
"That's right!"
Ji Yoon-chul, who heard his hyungs' words, nodded calmly and opened his mouth.
In this situation, the youngest who made many comments that hit people in the face.
"...... It seems like you didn't receive any New Year's blessings."
"Yoon-chul, I'm already upset, so can you stop hitting me with bones?"
"When I see the hyungs, I want to keep teasing them."
If there was a member who showed this kind of behavior for two years in a row, they think it would have been very exciting to watch.
On top of that, seeing the additional condition items that the manager hyung brought, I had a feeling that the other members' dopamine would soar even higher.
"You even prepared the butler's uniform?"
"If we do it once, we have to do it properly."
"Wow.........."
I didn't know he even prepared the butler's uniform himself.
I sighed as I looked at the white gloves that were placed on top of the neatly folded pants.
"I have to wear gloves too?"
"Hey, the gloves aren't the problem. There's even a bow tie."
"Oh, my, god."
While Kang Si-yoon and I held our foreheads in pairs, Heo Yu-bin, the real power holder today, clapped excitedly.
"Change quickly and come back!"
".........Can't we go to the dorm and change?"
"Hey, that's not right. Didn't they say that the punishment starts right now?"
At least we can say no once in a while.
However, the ruthless manager hyung answered Heo Yu-bin's question with a bright "Yeah!"
We couldn't help but put on the butler's uniform right away.
"Let's just hurry up and come back. We're done."
Kang Si-yoon slapped my shoulder with a resigned expression.
We headed to the bathroom on the first floor, taking off our hanboks one by one and changing into butler's uniforms.
"But honestly, I thought the two of us would get caught."
"Since the rice bowl fortune-telling incident?"
"I was really going to say that I zero won and completely ruined, but you suddenly nodded, so I was so surprised. Wow, even the greatest Karis can act like this."
"Ha....."
I let out a deep sigh as I put on my black suit pants.
"Today seems to be a day when I really have no luck."
"Karis's unlucky day."
"But isn't that the same for you?"
"Everyone always teased me for being a clumsy person. You're the one who's surprising."
"I guess you're the one who's to blame for that bad energy."
"Wow, you're blaming me for this?"
We were bickering like usual, but soon we quickly became serious.
Kang Si-yoon, who was perfectly dressed up with a bow tie, looked into the mirror and spoke to me.
"Since it's come to this, let's do it properly. Making things like this fun is our specialty."
"...I was just about to accept this reality."
"If not the two of us, who else would do it?"
We came out of the bathroom fully dressed in butler's attire.
Kang Si-yoon, who immediately saw a camera following us, gave me a thumbs up at the perfect timing.
"Are you ready, Su?"
"Of course, Shi."
That's right. Since it's come to this, we should do our job as butlers properly, just like Kang Si-yoon said.
As we walked in with our chests out and confidence, the members who had been waiting burst out laughing.
"You both look good together, don't you?"
"It doesn't look like a punishment outfit! It's actually cool!"
"Why does that blonde butler over there feel so intimidating?"
"I think you've been working out hard."
Kang Si-yoon and I didn't react at all to the other words.
Instead, we went straight to Heo Yu-bin and knelt on one knee at the same time, bowing our heads.
"Just give me the order, Master."
"I'm here, Master!"
Still, I had always seen and heard things while living as a crown prince.
It was hard to endure at first because my pride didn't allow it, but once I made up my mind, I could show the true nature of a proper butler.
However, Kang Si-yoon had a strangely strange tone, contrary to his will.
Song Hyung-bin caught it right away and pointed at Kang Si-yoon while holding back laughter.
"Excuse me, but doesn't this butler sound like he's from the Joseon Dynasty?"
"What's wrong with my speech-"
"I'm sorry. He hasn't received enough training as a new recruit yet, so please be lenient and ignore this. More importantly, Master."
I took out the hand towel that the staff had put in my suit pants pocket.
Then, I lifted Heo Yu-bin's bangs slightly and wiped the sweat off him.
"You must have been working hard to get the New Year's money, so your complexion is not good. You should go and rest."
"Uh, ah, uh, that's right."
It was the first time he'd ever seen me say something like that.
Heo Yu-bin, who was receiving this kind of treatment for the first time, stuttered like a broken robot.
Then, as if he had just remembered that he had won the competition today, he coughed a few times and spoke in a solemn voice.
"Uh, uh! Okay, then shall we go back?"
Heo Yu-bin tried his best to speak in a commanding tone, but he ended up being embarrassed because he was not used to this kind of role.
As everyone was about to burst into laughter, Kang Si-yoon spread his arms and protected Heo Yu-bin.
"Please understand that our Master is still inexperienced in this role! If you laugh from now on, you will be punished immediately!"
"...In my opinion, if this continues, you will be punished by Karis hyung."
As soon as Ji Yoon-chul finished speaking, I grabbed Kang Si-yoon's arm and subdued him.
"What kind of butler in the world speaks with such a high tone? We'll have to go back to the beginning and get some education."
"Ah! Ah! It hurts! Okay, I'll speak properly!"
"I told you to do it properly, but what are you going to do if you do this already?"
"I'm sorry!"
After many twists and turns, we left the Sigma Entertainment building and headed to the dorm.
Perhaps because we came to a much more familiar and comfortable place than the building, Heo Yu-bin collapsed on the sofa with an attitude a hundred times more arrogant than before.
"Oh, I've been running all day, so my whole body is sore. Hey, can you give the two butlers a massage?"
"Oh my, I'll be there right now, Master!"
Kang Si-yoon, who came out of the bathroom after hurriedly wiping his hands, answered with a strangely frivolous tone.
However, I, who strangely became more serious at times like this, wanted to do my best to show my butler side.
So I chose the most intense line I've ever heard in my life.
"Yes, my lord."
"Pfft-!"
"What, what did you say? What did Karis just say?"
Song Hyung-bin, who was drinking water, almost sprayed a water cannon at my words.
Chae Eun-gyu, who was sitting next to Heo Yu-bin, blinked repeatedly as if he was wondering if he heard it correctly.
Only Yoo Min-ha was happy with my otaku-like line.
Kang Si-yoon took Heo Yu-bin's shoulder, and I took his leg and started massaging.
"Oh, oh.......... It feels so good?"
"I feel good because our Master feels good!"
"Si-yoon, I feel like I'm getting worse when I hear your tone."
"You can just ignore it while focusing on the massage."
I rubbed Heo Yu-bin's calf with moderate force on my fingertips.
Before I knew it, Heo Yu-bin was enjoying the feeling of being in heaven with his eyes closed.
"I'm jealous. I want to get a massage too."
"Yu-bin, can't you tell them for us to get a massage too?"
Yoo Min-ha and Song Hyeong-bin stared at Heo Yu-bin and showed their envy.
Heo Yu-bin look slightly tempted, and I caught it faster than anyone else and said bluntly.
"I'm only a subordinate of the Master, and I won't touch anyone other than the Master."
".......... Hyung. I think my fingers are going to shrivel up."
Ji Yoon-chul, who was sitting in front of the TV, wiggled his fingers after hearing me speak.
Chae Eun-gyu laughed in disbelief as he watched me concentrating on the massage.
"I'm telling you, Karis is secretly enjoying it right now."
"Aren't you taking advantage of the fact that you're a daily butler to say lines from your favorite novels?"
"Absolutely, unconditionally."
"Job satisfaction is 100%."
Our butler's work continued even after the massage.
"I'm hungry, what can I-."
"How about a sandwich with chocolate milk? I'll make it for you!"
"I knew you'd want that, so I set up the plates and cutlery in advance."
"Huh, already?"
I set up the table in a flash for Heo Yu-bin, who wanted snack time.
"Are you going to wash up? Then I'll prepare a towel and pajamas."
I also waited in front of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around my arm like butlers do.
Yoo Min-ha, who was watching my passionate appearance with great excitement, called me aside in the middle.
He said he had something important to say.
"What is it, Min-ha?"
"Hyung, you're totally immersed in the concept right now, aren't you?"
"...I just happened to."
Yoo Min-ha looked at me with his sparkling eyes.
"Then can I recommend a line? If you say it yourself, hyung, everyone's reaction will be crazy!"
"Isn't it a line from the comics you read?"
"It's similar, but it's not from the comics! It's just like this... ......."
I listened to Yoo Min-ha's whispered line.
Hmm. I can see why this guy is so excited.
If I say this in a serious tone, I can clearly imagine how the other members, including Heo Yu-bin, and the fans who will watch this original content on YouTube will react.
"Okay. I'll try it out when I get the chance."
"Okay!"
And that opportunity came sooner than I thought.
