Lord of the Time: I Can Reincarnate Infinitely

Chapter 332: 332: New Butler?



"What happened to Alfred? Is it true that he died of a heart attack?" Caleb's expression became solemn as he looked at everyone. The mood instantly turned gloomy at Caleb's question.

Seeing the expression of everyone, Caleb had already confirmed that Alfred indeed died. He did not know how to feel at this moment. But the picture of old man Alfred appeared on his head.

Their father shook his head with a melancholic expression. "Yes, our butler won't be here anytime soon. Actually, I'm already prepared for this would happen anytime soon. Because the severity of Alfred's disease is not something that even our advanced technology could cure. Most heart diseases today are easy with the level of our technology. But Alfred's disease is not a normal one. It's a magical disease that he got from when he was cursed by an evil genetic warrior."

What the hell? Alfred was cursed by an evil genetic wire. So it's not really a natural cause. It came from genetic ability. Then, why didn't you say it to me? I could have done something to save Alfred. Caleb raised his voice a little. Oh, it seems I lost control for a moment. He thought.

Everyone was surprised by Caleb's sudden agitation. After all, they knew that he was not the type to lose his cool over something. However, when they talked about it, Adam was the closest person to Alfred because they've always been together. Alfred may be the butler of the mansion, but his main responsibility is Adam. Klein looked at his younger brother with a sympathetic gaze. Calm down, little bro. We can't bring back Adam, and we can't bring back Alfred. There's no use crying over spilled milk, right? Not to mention, Alfred is surely doing fine now in the afterlife. Delvin also nodded to show that he agreed with Klein. And what could you have done even if you knew Alfred's heart disease? It's not as if you can cure him. Even advanced technology can't do anything about it. Are you saying that you're better than the doctors that we've hired in the past few years? Hearing this, Caleb calmed himself down and saw the look of suspicion from his father and mother. On the other hand, his grandfather was fairly chill and did not talk, just quietly listened. Well, if you guys knew that I have a fusion system, maybe you wouldn't ask me why. Caleb sighed. Unfortunately, he can't divulge any information about the fusion system to them. After all, that was his most precious secret in the world. No matter who it is or how close a person was to him, he won't tell them anything about his fusion system. He would bury this secret in his grave. Just like that, they talk about Alfred's matters and things concerning his funeral and Alfred's family members that he left.

"Forget it. Don't listen to me. I'm just spouting nonsense. Alfred's death is just too much for me." Caleb made a bullshit excuse that he could think of. "Well, I don't have anything to say anymore, but... If you want to hire another butler that would replace Alfred, I have one in my mind."

"Huh? You have one in your mind?" His mother asked.

"Yes. My friend Fatty has a lot of contacts. You know, my friend who is a family member of a wealthy merchant family like us."

Klein turned his head at Caleb with curiosity. "What's the name of the butler?"

Caleb pretended to think for a moment before saying, "Hui Kui. The butler's name is Hui Kui."

"Well, son, if you really want this guy called Hui Kui as your butler, then I don't have any problem with that. You can bring him here tomorrow, and we will hire him instantly. There's no problem about it, as long as your butler really has what it takes to replace Alfred." The mother of the household supported her son's decision without even thinking too much about it. That's a mother for you, a supportive one at that.

But the father also nodded and said, "You can bring his papers tomorrow, I'll take care of it. So, yeah, that's it. There's no need to talk about this. Your personal butler is your decision. And if he's really capable enough, I can make him the butler of this family."

Caleb nodded in understanding. "Yes, Father, don't worry. This Hui Kui guy is quite capable. Although he might not be that to the level of Alfred, or not as experienced as Alfred, he has the talent and the potential to do so."

Caleb said with confidence. He got confidence in his own fusion servant. After all, Hui Kui is the result of the fusion of three humans. Hui Kui has the combined experience, knowledge, skills, and potential of three persons. How terrifying is that? In his opinion, Hui Kui's potential can be considered a genius among geniuses, a dragon among dragons, as long as he is given time. And Caleb has further plans for his very first human fusion servant. He plans to fuse other people with Hui Kui so Hui Kui's talent would reach the top level or peak level. He won't fuse infant humans to Hui Kui. No, he hasn't reached that level of ruthlessness or cruelty yet. He still has a bottom line. He would only fuse people who dare to cause trouble to him or his family or obstruct him in any way. He doesn't have the scruples to use those kinds of people as fusion materials to improve Hui Kui.

"Well, Alfred's death is too sudden. Maybe hiring a butler would temporarily fill this void. Anyway, that's it. Let's not talk about Alfred anymore. It pains me." Delvin looked at Klein's lonesome face with pity and said:

"Yes, Alfred is also an uncle to me. He guided me when I was still a noob to the business world and he taught me some of the technical terms I know in the technical side of business. He is a butler and our family member."

The father of the household who usually looked stern and steady was also emotional hearing Delvin's words.

After all, Alfred was his confidant and the right-hand man in his family. He was a reliable steward that has unprecedented loyalty to them that no amount of money can buy. That is Alfred.
