The Butler of the Reverse Harem Is Crazy

23 – Butler doesn’t hide power (2)

“Wow…”

Upon entering the Tower of Growth, we looked around with surprised expressions.

Like the tower, letters are engraved on the walls of the white space,

In the center were three women who appeared to be receptionists.

A landscape reminiscent of an adventurer’s guild. The interior of the dungeon was very different from what we thought.

“Welcome, new students of Class A. And, Her Highness Laura.”

“It’s been a while.”

“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you. Your Highness has come as a mentor to these people, right?”

“That’s right. There are a total of four of us, Miya-sama, Ugo-sama, and Leon-sama.”

“There are people entering for the first time, so we’ll set the entrance area to the first floor.”

“All right.”

“Three freshmen, I checked the roster. I’ll help you with the procedures right away.”

It seems that previously cleared floors do not need to be broken again.

As expected, this kind of experience is rich, probably because he is a senior one grade above me.

I asked the princess, who was accustomed to conversing with the receptionist, keeping my voice as low as possible.

“Who are these people?”

“They are the managers of the tower. They are the ones who help us a lot, such as opening and closing dungeons and managing serious injuries.”

In response to her reply, this time, he pointed to a wall densely engraved with letters.

“What are the letters on the wall over there?”

“The names of those who have cleared the Tower of Growth so far are listed.”

That’s why it’s so densely engraved. Are the names of the four of us going up on that wall now?

I stared straight ahead, swallowing the stupid thought of what would happen if the walls were full.

“Check-in is complete. You can enter right now.”

“thank you.”

“I hope you have a fun trip to the dungeon today.”

We nod lightly towards her smiling like a travel agent.

Then, I passed the three and moved toward the portal in the back.

Paaa!

The place that came into our field of vision along with the dazzling light was a dark cave.

Instinctive disgust rises from the vicinity of the heart at the shady aura flowing from the inside.

“Now it looks like an ordinary dungeon.”

“I didn’t know that such a space could exist in a tall tower.”

“Because it’s Fruhi-sama. Is it a class 9 archmage for nothing?”

I nodded my head at Miya’s one word, “Isn’t it obvious?”

Even Duke Julius of the 7th class was that strong, how strong would it be if it was the 9th class?

Even if he can’t do it, he’ll have to regain the power of Yang Baek-ho’s days to do something about it.

“I will guide you from here.”

“Hmm? Do you know the way?”

“Because I’ve been there many times. The dungeon is reset every day, but it resets according to a set pattern, so if you come often, you automatically memorize the terrain.”

Well, if it was a dungeon that changed completely randomly every day, it would be a sacred object, not an artifact.

We moved quickly behind Laura, who was going ahead.

When the monsters haven’t appeared yet, Miya asks the princess next to her if she’s bored.

“Your Highness! How many floors have you been to, Your Highness?”

“I’ve only been to the third floor yet.”

three floors?

can’t you?

Wasn’t Laura also a superior-class knight, the level achieved by Duke Kaisel in the past?

In a dungeon where a wyvern is the final boss, she would be able to clear it quickly with her skills.

Could it be that you are hiding some of your skills from others?

“Then, you can climb higher with us today!”

“I wish I did too.”

“With this member, the third floor is a bit like that.”

I spoke in a low voice.

“Shouldn’t you have broken all ten floors before entering?”

“It’s a far cry. Say something that makes sense, you fool.”

As if to stop talking nonsense, Miya jumped up.

Well, I haven’t even pulled out my sword properly in front of her yet.

“I told you. There’s nothing more stupid than hearing stupid things from a fool like you.”

“Even my dad only woke up to the third floor on the first day. How are you going to get past that?”

“It’s true that wyverns make it to the top of the tower, but it’s not just one. I’ve heard there are usually ten or more.”

Although the princess added a negative opinion,

It still seemed like nothing to me.

“If the final boss is a wyvern, the number of wyverns is the same.”

That’s right.

Her Highness, the princess, is a superior class person,

Miya, like the grandmaster’s daughter, was also close to Laura’s level.

I am a sword master recognized by three principals, including Sir Ferdinand.

You say you can’t pass the 10th floor today with this member?

That would be even funnier.

“Isn’t it enough to just beat them to death?”

“What?”

“Kreuk, Kreuk!”

Miya, Laura and Ugo looking at me stupidly.

Before they could say anything, a goblin’s cry came from the darkness.

“Your Highness Laura. If Sir Ferdinand were to break through this tower alone, how many hours do you think it would take?”

“That… I don’t know exactly, but maybe two or three hours…”

Since there is a physical time from entrance to exit,

Do you expect that even the sword master, Sir Ferdinand, will take twenty minutes per floor?

I took a step in front of them and took out the sword that was hanging from my waist.

“Then, I guess it will take that long even if I go.”

“Leon-sama, can’t you…?”

“Do you want to keep saying things you don’t understand? You’re saying you’ll become a sword master?”

Miya asked with an incomprehensible expression.

Let’s make eye contact with Princess Laura, who is looking at me like that,

She was restless with a worried look in her pupils.

‘Is it okay for everyone to know that you are a sword master?’

I think he wants to say why he is revealing his skills instead of hiding them.

Of course, I also understand Princess Laura’s feelings to some extent.

When I lived as Yang Baek-ho,

There were so many people on Earth who were jealous of me.

To say that Yang Baek-ho swept away another innocent citizen.

Yang Baek-ho destroyed the building again and caused damage.

How absurd they were to find that they had saved lives, and that what returned was a malicious article.

However, as there is an old proverb called nangjungjichu (囊中之錐),

Even if a talented person hides, he is bound to be noticed anyway.

And the moment I became a fan of David, it was as if I had given up on hiding.

No, I never tried to hide in the first place.

From the moment I fell into this world until now, I have never pretended to be an underdog.

I only adjusted my strength, but I’ve never actually killed anyone other than a person wielding a weapon.

If he attacked, he would hit her, if she flirted with her, she would step on her, and if she flirted with Catherine, she would just hit her head.

Besides, since I’m a butler, I’m on the low side as a commoner.

It is said that he is a human being who must be considered unconditionally in this class society.

Of course, it’s true that I was able to run amok thanks to the duke’s back, but

My actions always stem from confidence stemming from my skills.

Both in front of Princess Laura and in front of hundreds of seniors,

In front of Sir Ferdinand, and also in front of Duke Julius and Catherine.

I have never hid my skills and evaded like a chintta.

At the moment when power was needed, I just took out the power that was suitable for it and used it.

That I’m afraid of being checked by the academy students?

‘It doesn’t even sound funny.’

“If I really tried to hide it, I wouldn’t have tried to protect Your Highness when Robnam attacked that day.”

Laura’s eyes widened slightly at my answer.

“Miya, did I just ask if I could be a sword master?”

At that word, Miya stares at me with a bewildered expression.

Staring into the darkness from which the cries of goblins can be heard,

I said while examining the blade of the sword Catherine had given me.

“I sure did, but…”

“Why are you hiding such power?”

“…?”

“They always ask me that question after they’ve been beaten.”

“It’s not even funny. They misunderstood that I was weak, right?”

Miya, Ugo, and Princess Laura’s faces were questioned by my sudden words.

The presence of the goblins has grown considerably stronger as if they had come close before they knew it.

I continued, pointing the tip of my sword at the darkness where the goblins were supposed to be.

“If you think about it, I’ve never really tried to hide it. I just adjusted my strength so I wouldn’t die.”

“……Why are you saying that all of a sudden?”

“That’s right.”

“Because no one has ever asked,”

“I just didn’t show my strength because I’ve never faced an opponent who would do my best in public.”

After coming to this world, there were only a handful of experiences where I faced an opponent worthy of being called a strong player.

At least Duke Julius or Fleur’s father, the swordsman Earl Price.

Even that belonged to a secret sparring because it was done at the gymnasium dedicated to the family of the Duke of Roelheim.

However, if you go out to a public place,

“Everyone, I’m a sword master, can you take a look at this powerful swordsmanship?”

I’m not a crazy idiot enough to pretend to be proud.

I just don’t reveal it because I have nothing to reveal.

I just don’t answer because I don’t ask.

If you go around pretending to have some power and arrogantly,

If that’s not a local third-rate bully, what is it?

“Because coming to this tower twice is annoying.”

So, when the other person gets into a fight,

Or, you use your strength without worrying about it only when you can solve a troublesome problem by using your strength.

like right now

oh oh… … .

As usual, while holding the sword with his right hand, he awakened the magic power of his entire body.

Then the air around them began to tremble slowly,

The skin and muscles of the whole body, and the mana that was dormant under the blood vessels, gradually aroused the body.

“Miya, did I ask you earlier? Do you have any thoughts of breaking the record set by your father?”

“……Uh, uh? I sure said that.”

Miya’s expression hardened as she felt the unusual magic power.

Little by little, I blew magic into the sword I was holding.

Hwaaak-… … Kwagwagwa-!!

Then, the magic power that covered only the grip of the sword slowly burned,

Soon after riding the sword body, it began pouring its destructive energy into the surroundings.

“you you……!”

For Miya, the magic power flowing from me surpasses that of the superior class,

Instinctively he realized that he was heading for a vast wilderness he had not reached.

And, Laura and Ugo’s eyes widened slightly as they looked at me.

Even a man who could barely feel the magic knew how ridiculous this was.

A woman born with a gift from heaven was once again surprised by Leon’s talent.

“As expected, shouldn’t we go to a real dungeon instead of a fake dungeon like this?”

“Leon… you…”

The mana that poured out from stem to stem hit the surroundings like a whip.

At the same time, the blue flame rising from the sword spewed out a deep blade.

Keyiing!

Only the Sword Master can use it.

A chaste Aura Blade that easily surpasses the emitter.

Even her father, who is praised as a genius that is second to none in the empire, realized a lofty state just before he turned 30.

I earnestly hope that all prosecutors on the continent will reach,

The highest level that all martial artists in the world do not hesitate to respect.

A man who stepped on such great ground at the age of twenty.

A red-haired young man holding a brilliant magical sword,

A woman with a red side ponytail stares blankly.

Miya’s eyes were shaking as if an earthquake had struck.

“So let’s finish this tutorial dungeon quickly and go have dinner together.”

To Leon, who proposes in a calm voice,

She couldn’t answer anything.
