Invicinble Colorless Butler

The next day, the students from the academy gathered on the beach at the behest of their Principal, Merlick Donovan. He asked the teachers to gather the students and help with the investigations that the soldiers of the Cirlus Kingdom would carry out in the former foggy area.

Merlick dared to make that decision because he thought there would be no more danger once the mist over the ocean had cleared. In addition, the magical beasts in that place were also significantly reduced in number. So he wanted to use the remaining monsters to increase the fighting experience of the academy students. What they were doing right now was similar to the survival test they had once done. Only this time, the students would move from one island to another and meet magical beasts in the middle of their journey in the ocean.

The people from the academy would go on the Cirlus Kingdom's warship to ensure their safety. Princess Cordelia, who was known as the war goddess of the Cirlus Kingdom, also came along with them.

"Today, we will help the soldiers of the Cirlus Kingdom to investigate the former foggy area. You only need to fight with magical beasts and help the soldiers of the Cirlus Kingdom to eliminate the monsters. You don't have to worry about high-level magical beasts because we have General Cordelia here." Flavio gave his explanation to the academy students. The other teachers and Princess Cordelia were standing next to him.

Princess Cordelia's face twitched after hearing what Flavio had said. He sounded like he was selling herself. Then she looked at Ziel among the crowd of students.

(The boy is there after all. What are you guys relying on me for!)

Princess Cordelia gritted her teeth, but her face turned pale after remembering what had happened last night.

(At least he's not a bad person who will disturb the peace of this kingdom. Otherwise, I don't know what I should do)

Princess Cordelia sighed heavily. She kept listening to Flavio's explanation to the academy students until he finished. After that, the students were divided into groups assigned to each part of the warship. Regardless of the group, Ziel asks that he be placed with Clara because he is her butler and guardian at the same time. But he wouldn't help her when in a fight with magical beasts. He would only step in when Clara was in danger.

His group members were a mix of seven classes. From class S, the only people Ziel knew were Clara, Princess Iris, Lilith, and Kyouka. Princess Aishia and Princess Freya are in the other group. They had protested at the teachers but were quickly rejected. The heroes are also deliberately divided into four groups.

"How much longer until we arrive at our destination?" Clara asked with a pale face because she had been seasick since they left. Fortunately, Clara, Princess Iris and Kyouka didn't have a strange dream last night. Otherwise, they would be exhausted the next day. But Clara, who is not used to sea travel, is disturbed by the atmosphere and shaking on the ship.<br/><script>ChapterMid();</script>

"Perhaps before lunchtime, we have arrived at our first destination island. Please be patient until then." Princess Iris rubbed Clara's back to relieve her seasickness.

"I don't know whether I can survive until then or not...Hmmph..." Clara didn't have time to finish her words because she was stopped by her nauseous stomach and finally vomited near the ship's deck. Princess Iris couldn't help but smile bitterly at that.

"Are you okay, Clara?" Kyouka asked her worriedly. She had vomited many times, and her face looked very pale. Kyouka had also used magic on Clara, but it had no effect.

"Hmm… I feel nauseous and a bit dizzy. But other than that, I'm fine." Clara smiled weakly in response to Kyouka's anxiety.

Not long after, Ziel returned from the ship's galley. He pushed the trolley table with a set of teapots and cups on it.

"I brought you some tea to relieve your seasickness, my lady." Ziel brewed a cup of tea to relieve Clara's nausea and dizziness.

"Thank you, Ken." Clara smiled and immediately drank the tea that Ziel had made for her. Clara's previously pale face slowly began to turn red again, and nausea in her body disappeared.

"Eh, I feel like my body is getting better, and the dizziness in my head is also gradually disappearing. What tea did you make for me, Ken? I felt a chilling sensation after I drank the tea." Clara moved her body and felt that her previous nausea and dizziness had disappeared entirely.

Princess Iris and Kyouka also felt that the tea was too effective to relieve the symptoms of seasickness. Even Clara's pale face returned to normal in an instant. They were also quietly focused on waiting for the answer.

"I mixed the tea leaves with cinnamon and peppermint, my lady. This is a recipe from my hometown. When you feel nauseous from motion sickness, you can use this recipe to relieve the symptoms." Ziel answered honestly. Though in truth, the effect of the drink was not as significant as he had said. All because of the Leviathan essence he used in his tea.

(What did he say! Do you think I'm stupid!? I already know the recipe for that kind of tea! But it's impossible to get rid of seasickness symptoms instantly! Eh? They immediately believed him!?)

Kyouka's face twitched. She also knows from her homeworld that tea mixed with cinnamon or peppermint can relieve seasickness symptoms. But she was astonished and couldn't believe its super-fast effectiveness. When she saw Princess Iris and Clara nod as if they understood, she wanted to shout at them both, but she quickly restrained herself and glared at Ziel.

"Is there something on my face, Miss Kyouka? Oh, I forgot. I certainly made enough for the three of you to drink." Ziel served another cup of tea to Kyouka and Princess Iris.

"Thank you. I apologize for bothering you." Princess Iris smiled shyly because she always bothered Ziel even though he wasn't her butler.

"Hmph! Thank you. I'll see if the effect is as amazing as Clara's." Kyouka quickly took the cup that Ziel gave and drank it.

(Eh! What is this!? Why after drinking it, I became full of energy. My body became lighter, and my strength seemed to increase. What's with this tea? Wait a minute, isn't this tea like thick mana liquid!? He must have added other ingredients besides those previously mentioned)

Kyouka could quickly understand the secret inside Ziel's brewed tea. She thought that it would make sense that Clara could recover so quickly from her seasickness symptoms with magic tea like that. She looked at Ziel and frowned.

Kyouka suddenly remembered the time she almost died together with Princess Irene. A black-haired boy helped them. For some reason, she suddenly remembered the boy's voice before she lost her consciousness that time. Her body involuntarily trembled because she had just realized something.

"You are…" Kyouka wanted to say something but quickly stopped her words. Fortunately, she was able to control herself.

"What's wrong, Miss Kyouka?" Ziel already heard what Kyouka said. He didn't know what Kyouka was thinking right now.

"Eh? It is nothing. I forgot what I wanted to say earlier." Kyouka smiled awkwardly and took her eyes off him.

"Are you perhaps experiencing the same thing as me, Kyouka? If true, then you should finish the drink. I can guarantee that your nausea and dizziness will go away quickly." Clara said worriedly. Princess Iris, next to Clara, also felt the same way as her. It made Kyouka feel guilty.

"I'm excellent." Kyouka quickly returned to her usual self. She secretly glanced at Ziel.

(I'll properly thank him later. I'm sure he's no ordinary boy and has many secrets. Luckily, I didn't say it in front of Clara and Iris)

Kyouka was grateful that she had good self-control. She didn't want her good intentions to turn into trouble for Ziel.

Not long after, Beatrix came to their place. She is the teacher on duty in Ziel's group. Beatrix had previously met with Princess Cordelia and the other teachers. She had been gone for quite a while since the group was formed and had just returned. It seemed that the meeting discussed many things.

"How is Clara?" Beatrix immediately asked about Clara's condition as soon as she got there. She is Clara's private magic tutor as well as her aunt. She had been worried since leaving her for the previous meeting.

"Eh? Aunt? Are you done with your meeting? I'm already fine, thanks to the tea that Ziel made." Kalya smiles and shows Beatrix that she is okay.

"Haa...thank goodness you're okay. I was thinking about your situation here at the meeting." Beatrix sighed in relief then pinched Clara's cheeks.

"Mmm… I'm sorry, auntie! But, can you let me go!? I am no longer a little girl!" Clara protests against Beatrix. She rubbed her cheeks which were red from being pinched by her. Princess Iris, Kyouka, and the other students laughed seeing Clara like that.

[Attention! For the soldiers and academy students on the west deck, please be careful! We detected a low-level magical beast approaching!]

Their laughter suddenly stiffened. Ziel and his group were on the west deck with Beatrix as their supervisor. Not long after, the academy students saw a giant octopus approaching them at high speed.

Roaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrr!

"It's a Thunder Squid. According to the book, that monster can shoot black ink as well as lightning from its tentacles." One of the academy students explained about the monster.

"You don't need to panic. I can deal with it alone." A student from class A said arrogantly. But before he could do anything, the monster shouted first.

Roaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrr!

The monster died quickly. As the students spoke, Kyouka cast her spell at the beast.

"You can fight other magical beasts later. The monster had gotten too close to the deck. If it's a bit late to kill it, there will be damage to this ship." Kyouka spoke nonchalantly to those students. Beatrix silently nodded and praised Kyouka's observation. The other students felt embarrassed after hearing Kyouka's statement. They knew Kyouka meant less talking and more action.

[Attention! For the soldiers and students of the academy on the east deck, please be careful! A low-level magical beast is heading that way!]

Suddenly another notification sounded in the ears of Clara and her group. One after another, warnings sounded to inform them that some magical beasts were still roaming the area and attacking the warship. But all of that was easily overcome by the soldiers and the academy students.

***

On the other ship behind the warship carrying the academy students, King Raghnall watched along with Merlick. They were secretly following Princess Cordelia's investigative activities. But they didn't know that princess Cordelia had noticed them just she decided to keep quiet.

"What do you think about the students from the human academy?" King Raghnall asked the man next to him. That person is King redis. He suddenly wanted to go with them after knowing the plan that Merlick was going to do. Apart from King redis, Queen Triana and her two children also came with her.

"Hmm... just so so. Nothing special." King redis replied nonchalantly. He didn't seem to care at all what the academy students had shown to defeat the monsters.

"Oh, is that so? Perhaps the young talents in the Demon Kingdom are far superior to those in the human academy." Merlick said sarcastically because he didn't like what King Redis had said.

"Of course…" King Redis wanted to boast about the young talent of his kingdom, but the sudden change in the weather stopped his words. The sky turned cloudy and was accompanied by lightning striking into the ocean.

"Looks like a storm is coming soon. We better get to the nearest island as soon as possible before our ship gets caught in the storm." King Raghnall reminded them with a gloomy face. He felt something strange about the storm. The royal mages had checked that it should be a sunny day. But overcast clouds with golden lightning suddenly covered the sky above them. King Raghnall sensed a bad omen from what was happening right now.
