Villainess and Butler, we only have each other.(dropped)

You lost everything when you were young, problem is your soul is of an old one, you understand what happened. And by luck you came across the Villainess and helped her, but the problem was you both are the same. Lonely and vulnerable, constantly putting walls so you can't be hurt. You only have each other to rely on. You, a man who've been finding the meaning to survive and her who is a tool of politics. Inside of an otome game. === Tue, Wed, and Thursday is de schedule~

Ophelia learns about Luna?!

"I don't think I'd be able to work as a Butler if I have this kind of routine everyday"

"Are you talking yourself your way out?"

"how about you go ahead and exhaust your entire body and work after that? I have to tend to my lady, you know?"

"oh right"

With the same expression-less face I talked to Dell the same way I talk with the Head Butler, with proper arguments and such. 

"well fine, let's make your routine light and just make it gradually heavier the more you get used to it"

Well I guess I have the reputation of an argumentative child that they try to appeal to with better circumstances instead of arguing. 

Not that I complain. 

"Right" I'm doing some basic muscle training before actually holding the sword, I can at least understand the reason why muscle training comes first.  

[Yeah, slowly put yourself down and the quickly push yourself up, that way your muscles can gain more growth]

'How'd you know that?'

Nonetheless I complied. Markus has always been there for me after all, he won't lie to me. 

As I finished our morning exercises I went to take a bath and went to the head Butler for my lessons. 

My routine has been like that everyday. Until. 

"You have no talent at all"

{[Oof]}

"That's on magic anyways"

We're on Ophelia's magic lessons, we just started and I guess my appraisal showed me no talent at Magic. 

The orb presented before the two of us shows our talent in magic. Ophelia"s magic assessment is that of Blue, the highest aptitude you can get on magic… that we know of. 

"oh don't get me wrong, young'un you're talentless in magic but you definitely have potential"

"What do you mean?"

"You have a lot of mana swirling inside you, you just can't use it"

"Ah."

The Magic teacher, Loran, talked to me for a couple of seconds. But something made me curious. 

"I'll take another appraisal."

"eh? sure there's no harm anyways"

'Luna take over'

{Ehh???}

'Cmon'

[Yeah it wouldn't hurt to try]

Samuel passed out after that, I, Luna then took over, our eyes then turned grey and I held the orb before us. It turned Purple. 

"What the?!"

"...!"

[Holy shit, it's just as Samuel is curious about]

'Yeah'

Markus is apt at Swords and I'm apt at magic, Samuel is apt with swords but he's only at beginner level. 

'We should keep it as a secret for while, but let's say I do have some apt in magic'

[Why?]

'he'll probably abuse it'

[Oh right]

Then I, Luna. Went back and gave Samuel the control. So I, Samuel took over my body. 

'What happened?'

[Luna's got some apt in magic as what you expected]

{yep}

'Huh, knew it'

"wow! Just what is happening!"

Loran just got confused then excitement was plastered in his face. 

"A purple?! Purple apt?!"

I then touched the orb again, in which he looked at it seriously, after a while of touching the orb nothing happened. 

"eh?! Eh??? What is happening?!"

That confusion is pretty much justified, someone who's appraised to be purple then suddenly nothing. 

"You! What did you do?! Do you have some artefacts on you?!"

I was a bit shaken with the mage's attitude that I was stuck in place. But the old mage noticed this and coughed before asking me again but calmly. 

"Did you do something, young'un?"

I shake my head as an answer. And he asked me to use the orb once again, little to my knowledge though is that Ophelia was observing me closely all that time, and she saw the change within my eyes. 

***

"Sammy"

"Yeah?"

Right now we're in Ophelia's room, she's having her session of Mind Cleanser to calm her mind. 

"Why did your eyes suddenly turn Grey?"

"..."

{uh-oh explain that yourself Sammy~}

[yep, your fault that time]

I'll just lie anyway. 

"I don't know either my lady"

"...don't you trust me?"

Ophelia suddenly has a sullen expression. I felt bad but could I just explain my mental disorder? I could be delusional for others if I told this. 

"I see…"

"n-no my lady—"

She got up on my lap and went to the bed herself, I was just locked in place after that. 

{uh oh}

[shh]

I'm quite afraid of what is to come when I explain my circumstances, I don't know what to say when I say I have voices in my head and some of them have their own personality. 

"My lady… "

She just laid down on the bed without even looking at my way. 

"would you believe me if I told you that it's not just I, it's we?"

"..."

"I have some people inside my head my lady, I got a girl in my head and she took over when were doing an appraisal—"

She then suddenly pushed her body up, crawling up to me, that's unbecoming of a lady. 

"really?"

"Yes, really. But it's a secret okay?"

"Okay, but on one condition"

"wh-what?"

"let me meet the 'she' as you said"

For once in a while a cold sweat appeared on my forehead. 

"let me ask her—"

{Absolutely! Absolutely yes!!!!!}

[Oh god]

{I'm meeting the cute young villainess so let meee!!!!!!!}

'fine'

"You'll meet Luna, My lady"

Samuel, then passed out and Luna took over, with her nose blowing like a bull she looked at Ophelia like she's looking at a prize. 

"Kyaaa~ the Villainess-channn!!!"

Luna, who's taken over the body, has the eyes of Samuel's body change color to grey, exactly as Ophelia has seen. 

Luna hugged Ophelia like she's been waiting for this to happen. 

"S-Samuel?"

"No Vi– My lady it's Luna!"

[Control yourself please]

"O-okay Luna, are you the one who has that Purple apt in mana?"

"Yeeeeas…. "

Luna couldn't help but avert her gaze. Ophelia got suspicious, she forced her way out the hug and held Luna on both her shoulders then asked. 

"tell me the truth"

"Okay, okay My lady but you shouldn't spoke of this to Samuel"

"...?"

"Why?" Ophelia asked tilting her head. 

"Because if he knew he might abuse it, it'll be bad for Samuel"

After contemplating for a while Ophelia then nodded in affirmation. 

"Samuel actually has the Apt, but I took it away"

"eh?"

"Y-you see… wait You should learn of Markus too"

[Hey]

"Cmon, We'll have to protect both of them"

[Ha… fine]

Markus then took over, Him changing the eye color of Samuel's body to sapphire. Ophelia couldn't help but gasp. Right now she could feel Marcus's aura, probably because of the treasure. 

"I'm Markus My lady"

His voice is deeper and sounds more mature. But it's not that deep for a five year old child's body.

"Woah.. "

"Keep it a secret, yeah?"

Ophelia Vehemently nodded, her eyes shining like she just discovered something fun. 

"So I have three friends all along…"

She quietly muttered. The only one who "heard" this was Markus, and he just smiled in turn. 

Before giving back the control to Samuel. 

How do you think of the characters?
