Belle Adams' Butler
Waking up from a nightmare several hours before dawn, Belle fetched a drink of water. She paused in front of her kitchen's window when she noticed a lit lantern in front of her mansion's garden. Her butler stood there, shovel in hand. This was no hour to be gardening. Curious, she made her way outside, but when she had gotten close enough to see a large and hollow pit next to her eternally-stoic and polite butler, she saw him pick up a rotten body. A DEAD BODY! Her eyes widened fearfully when she saw her handsome butler drop the rotting body into the fresh hole. She asked in horror, "What are you doing?!" Surprised to see his young miss awake at this hour, he stared at her with the same expression he had been keeping up for all these years. He had made sure she was asleep before coming here. "Gardening." "And the body?!" she looked at him in disbelief. "Fertilizer," he answered her before picking up the shovel that was on the ground. Belle was now certain something had possessed her butler. Who gardened dead bodies?! She then heard him ask her, "Want to help me in planting it, Miss Adams?" he gave her a sweet smile.

Book of dead- Part 4
Before Lucas' foot took a step inside the tower, his entire appearance and scent of smell went back the way it was before he had turned to a fallen Grim reaper. He was back to his original aloof self and the reapers who noticed him bowed their head at him.
As the grim reaper held the second-highest position in the land of the dead, a lot of them knew when a Hawvert or a Grim stepped near them. Lucas didn't appear often in front of the crowd or in the meeting that was held in the tower. Even if he attended the meetings, he never made his presence known to others that left a mystery about his existence.
Lucas continued to walk up the tower behaving as if he knew nothing while knowing everything that the other lower death reapers didn't know of.
The death reapers who looked at him whispered at the sides.
