Butler's Dream - Home Screen Interaction

"What sort of dream will Master have tonight? I hope its a wonderful dream that makes you reluctant to wake up."

"A dream that I want to have?"

Berrian:

"Well..." "Of course I'd like a dream spent surrounded with my favorite black tea." "B-but... I'd also like for Master to be there too" "A-apologies! It wasn't meant with any odd intentions." "I'm a butler... so I simply want to support my Master even in a dream."

Rono:

"Huh, what do I want to see?" "I'd want to sample a whole variety of amazing food from everywhere!" "Ah, but eating it alone would be kinda boring..." "If Master was eating with me... that'd be an even better dream!" "Ack, s-sorry. I didn't mean it in any weird way or anything." "I'm a butler... Even in a dream, I just want to help my Master out..."

Bastien:

"Hmmm... Let's see..." "A dream where I get to fill my stomach with meat dishes that Rono cooked..." "It would be nice... if Master was also with me..." "S-sorry, I might have said to much just then. Please forget about it..."

Haures:

"Hmm... This may be a little childish but..." "A dream which features a dog... would be very nice..." "A-and... I'd like it if Master was there" "I-I'm sorry...! I didn't mean for it to come off like that!" "As a butler... I simply want to be of aid my Master, even in a dream."

Fennesz:

"Hmm... A dream where I can read for the whole day is tempting but..." "I-if its permissible, I'd like Master to be there with me... Or something like that..." "I-I'm sorry! I just suddenly... something so brazen...!" "T-that wasn't said with any ulterior motives or anything..." "I'm a butler so... I'd like to assist my Master, even in a dream"

Boschi:

"Hmm... I usually don't dream at all but..." "If Master were to be in it, it'd might be a pretty fun dream"

Ammon:

"Hmm... Maybe a dream where I'm surrounded by a field of beautiful roses?" "And of course, if Master were to show up, I'd be plenty happy♪" "Lets take a stroll and smell the roses together♪" "I'll teach you a whole lot of things!"

Lucas:

"Hmm... Being able to sit down and read a medical publication paired with a delicious wine is a wonderful dream but..." "Ah yes, I'd like to have a dream where Master makes an appearance in. " "Drinking with Master and engaging in stimulating conversations together sounds like a wonderful time."

Nac:

"Yes... This is quite the question that you have posed..." "But if there is one thing that I can say..." "If I could see Master's own dreams... I'd be delighted" "I am, at my core, someone who does not posses many desires or wishes of my own but..." "Various things seem to be the exception when it concerns you..." "Oh my, it seems that I may have spoken a little too much just now." "Please disregard my ramblings just now, Master."

Lamli:

"Do you even need to ask? Of course I'd die to see a dream where I can have my lovely Master alllll to myself!" "Wandering around with Master~! Stargazing~!" "Fufufu~Just imagining it has got me smiling all wide and giddy!"

Miyaji:

"Hmm... Well it might be quite troublesome to say but..." "Speaking frankly, one where Master appears in, maybe?" "If that were to happen... what a wonderful dream that would be"

Flure:

"Hmm.... Let's see..." "A dream where I'm surrounded by lovely clothes would be wonderful!" "I'd love to dress you up in so many different outfits..."

Lato:

"Hmm. A parsley field where I can eat all the parsley I want would be nice." "There's Miyaji-sensei and Flure..." "Ah! That's right. Master is also invited." "Lets enjoy a parsley party together okay, Master?"

Hanamaru:

"I dunno... Huh, nothing really comes to mind." "Well, it might be a bit dark but... a dream featuring my hometown, maybe?" "I'd show you all the sights and sounds of the place that I grew up with..." "..." "Its something that I could never do in reality so..." "But if its a dream, there's a chance of it coming true..." "Oops, that got kinda dark for a sec. Sorry, Master."

Yuhan:

"Let's see... A dream where I'm in nestled within a beautiful grove of peach trees, perhaps. " "In my home village, there were quite a few peach trees planted around the area. I used to spend a lot of time among them when I was younger." "Just looking at the beautiful scenery can soothe even the most troubled hearts." "And, I'd like for Master to share this dream with me." "I will always yearn to spend time with the ones closest to my heart."

Teddy:

"Hmm.... A dream where I can see the sunrise, maybe?" "Seeing a sunrise in your dreams is quite the auspicious sign, it means that your luck will steadily rise!" "With that rising luck, good things are also more likely to happen!" "And I'd like it if Master could also be there as well." "I really enjoy the time I spend with Master. Even in a dream, if I can experience that, then that would be supper lucky!"

Bellen:

"... The same dream I have every night, I suppose." "... Just like now, I'm allowed to be with Master..." "And with Berrian and the others by my side..." "I'm much more happy living out this reality than I ever could be in a dream. Every day is like a miracle for me." "I can't begin think... of anything that I would even wish for."

Shiro:

"If your dreams turn sour, its a sign that your stress is building." "So it better to have good dreams." "A dream that I'd like to have?" "......... Nothing in particular." "......" "..." "What? Why are you looking at me with such incessant eyes?" "Hah..." "Frankly speaking, I'd like to dream of the past." "Those who I can not meet in reality, can be communed with in dreams." ".... hah. I've spoken of such dull topics." "Forget it."

[Butler's Wedding Party Card Story - Flure] A Knight's Oath

i had a request to translate more flure card stories so here you go! thanks again to a friend for sharing this card with me

Chapters 1 & 2

Chapter 1

※ Warning: This butler story contains spoilers for the event story “Butler’s Wedding Party”.

It is recommended to read up to chapter 15 of the event story before reading this.

For lords who are avoiding spoilers, please hit the button in the upper left corner to return.

………

-Several days after the party-

Due to Lato’s suggestion… I would be spending a day with each of the butlers.

Tomorrow is Flure’s turn. Feeling a little restless, I started walking around the mansion.

I noticed Flure’s voice coming from the library.

Flure: …So cool… I want to protect Aruji-sama like that too…

> Flure.

Flure: Uwaah…! Aruji-sama!?

> S-Sorry for scaring you.

Flure: N-No… I’m sorry for being loud.

Flure: I was so focused on this book… I was just surprised.

> What are you reading?

When I asked him… Flure closed the book and set it faced down.

Flure: U-Uhm… It’s a romance novel.

Flure: Uhm… Because of the wedding party… I was just thinking about how nice it is to have a lover…

Flure: So I decided to try reading a romance book.

> Oh, I see.

It must have been really interesting if he was that focused on it…

I turned my attention to the book and noticed the title on the book’s spine.

> “The Knight and the Princess’s Secret Romance”...?

Flure: Ah…!

Flure panicked and tried to hide the book’s spine, but… He quickly gave up and moved his hands away.

> Sorry, was I not supposed to find out…?

Flure: Uhm… No, that’s not it.

Flure: But since this book is… …About a romance between two people with a master-servant relationship…

> Huh?

Flure: ……No… Uhm…

Flure: …I’m just a bit embarrassed…Don’t worry about it.

> O-Okay

Flure: ……U-Uh…

> …What’s the book about?

Flure: It’s… Well, romance is a big part of the story, but…

Flure: The other parts of it are also great.

> Really?

Flure: Yeah. Just as the title says, it’s a love story between a knight and princess, but…

Flure: I really admire the knight’s strength and how he always saves the princess no matter how dangerous it is.

Flure: For example… In the scene where the two of them go to a field of flowers…

Flure: The princess gets attacked by a large group of bandits, and the knight protects her.

Flure: After that he makes an oath to her, “I will continue to protect you for the rest of my life”... He’s so cool…

Flure’s eyes were shining as he spoke. He really seems to admire the knight from the book.

Flure: Hah… I wish I was as cool as him…

> Flure…

Flure fiddled with the book like he was in deep thought. Then, he looked at me as if he had made up his mind.

Flure: Uhm, Aruji-sama…

Flure: If it’s okay with you… Can we go to a flower field together tomorrow?

> A flower field?

Flure: Yes. I thought about it while reading this book.

Flure: About how I want to go to a flower field with you like the knight from this book did.

Flure: Of course… Only if you didn’t have something else you wanted to do, though.

> Let’s go to a flower field.

Flure: Really?

> Yeah.

Flure: Thank you, Aruji-sama.

Flure: I really like the flower field scene…

Flure: I’m not trying to recreate that scene, but… How do I put it…

Flure: I’m very happy that I can go there together with you.

> Is that so?

Flure: …Fufu, well then… I’m gonna reread that scene.

Flure: I’m looking forward to tomorrow.

> Yeah.

Like that, I left the library so that I wouldn’t distract him.

-The next day-

Under the cloudless sky… Flure and I arrived at a flower field deep in the forest.

Flure: Isn’t it a beautiful field, Aruji-sama?

Flure: I’m sure that the field from the book also looked like this.

Flure happily led me to the middle of the field.

I wonder… Just what exactly was that scene like?

> What kind of scene was it?

Flure: Let’s see…

Flure: After the knight protected the princess from the bandits… He makes an oath to her.

> I see.

Flure: Ah, if it’s okay with you…

Flure: Can we recreate that scene now?

> Huh?

Flure: I’ve read that scene countless times, so… I think I can reenact it.

> Really?

Flure: Since we came to a flower field together… I kind of want to try doing it.

Flure: …Is that alright, Aruji-sama?

> Let’s give it a try.

Flure: Fufu… Thank you.

Flure: Then, uhm… I know it’s sudden, but can we start?

> Yeah.

Flure: …Then, here it goes…

Flure: ……Fuu…

Flure: …No matter what the future may hold… I will continue to protect you for the rest of my life.

Flure: More than any dangers we may face…

Flure: A life without you… Is many times more terrifying to me.

Flure: I…

Flure: Lo…Lo……Love….

Flure: ………I… love….

> Flure…?

Flure: ……Sorry, Aruji-sama…

Flure: U-Um… Could you wait a moment…? My face feels… a bit warm.

> Y-Yeah.

At first, he was able to coolly say the oath, but…

Right now, he’s completely red.

And as I thought about the words he was going to say… I felt the heat rising to my face too.

Flure: W-Well, you know… It’s a little embarrassing, isn’t it?

> Y-Yeah, it is…

Flure: …Aruji-sama. You’re blushing.

> …You’re blushing too.

Flure: Y-Yeah… I know…

Flure: ……Fufu. It’s kind of a mess, isn’t it?

Flure: I had it all thought out, but… It’s totally different when you’re right here in front of me.

Flure smiled as he said that, and I found myself smiling too.

After that, we tried several more times to recreate the scene from the book and enjoyed our time together.

Chapter 2

-A little later- 

Flure: In the end… I’m still too embarrassed to say it.

> It’s okay.

Flure: Sorry you had to go along with it so many times.

> I don’t mind.

No matter how many times we tried… Flure wasn’t able to act out the scene to the very end.

Flure: O-Okay… This time I’ll do it for sure.

> You got this.

And so he opened his mouth to speak.

But it was at that moment…

BEEP! BEEP!

> T-The angel siren!?

When I hurriedly turned to look at Flure… The ominous sound of flapping wings resounded throughout the field.

Flap… flap…

Angel: “Die, for the sake of life…”

Flure: A-An angel…!

Flure pulled out his rapier and readied it towards the angel.

Flure: Aruji-sama…! Please release my demon’s powers!

> On it…!

You: “Come, sworn friends of the darkness. I summon thee.”

You: “By the Devil’s Contract, release the powers of Flure.”

Flure: Thank you, Aruji-sama!

Angel: “Die, for the sake of life…”

Clang!!

He stopped the angel’s attack, but… Due to the great force of it, Flure had a grim expression on his face.

Flure: Guh……!

> Flure, are you okay!?

Flure: I’m alright.

Flure: But…

Flure: Even though there are gaps in this angel’s attack… It’s incredibly fast…!

Flure: No matter what, stay by me.

> G-Got it…!

Angel: “Die, for the sake of life…”

Clang! Clang!

Flure skillfully used his rapier to fend off the angel’s attacks.

But the angel continued with its swift attacks.

> Flure…!

Flure: It’s okay…! Don’t worry, Aruji-sama.

Flure: It seems like… This angel isn’t that strong.

Flure: More importantly…

Flure: Aruji-sama, please try to stay as quiet as you can…

Flure: If the angel’s attention turns to you, then you’ll be in danger…!

Instead of replying, I vigorously nodded.

Flure gave me a fleeting glance and smiled reassuringly.

Flure: I… I’ll protect you to the end.

> (You got this, Flure…!)

Angel: “Die, for the sake of life…”

The angel flapped its wings and distanced itself from us.

And then… With incredible force, the angel charged at Flure.

> (Flure!!)

Flure: ……Hah!!

Stab…!!

Flure extended his arm just as the angel came close, and with his rapier, he pierced the angel’s body.

> (A-Amazing…!)

Angel: “D-Die, for… Di…e…”

Angel: ………

Then the angel’s light disappeared.

Flure: ……Hah…

> Flure, are you hurt?

Flure: I’m perfectly fine. Aruji-sama, are you injured?

> I’m okay.

Flure: I see… …I’m glad.

Flure: I…… defeated an angel on my own…

Flure: …I did it somehow… Thank goodness…

> Thanks for protecting me.

Flure: ……Of course.

Flure smiled with great joy.

Then the two of us decided to go back to the mansion to report about the angel.

-A little later-

After we finished giving our report… We decided to go on a walk together in the garden.

Step… step… step…

Flure: Today ended up being tiring.

> Yeah, it was.

Flure: To think we’d be attacked by angels… That was unexpected.

Flure: …And even though it was weak… I managed to defeat an angel by myself…

Flure: I… I was able to protect you…

Flure: …I’m so happy.

Flure: ……Maybe I'm a little too happy, but…

Flure: Just a little; I felt that… I was kind of like the knight from the book.

> You were very cool.

Flure: Aruji-sama…

> Let me say it again… Thank you, Flure.

Flure: I should be the one thanking you… …Thank you for being by my side.

Flure: I couldn’t use my bow since it was too close… Honestly, I was panicking…

Flure: But because you believed in me and trusted me to protect you… It gave me courage.

Flure: ……Maybe the knight from the book…

Flure: Also felt this way.

> Huh?

Flure: No matter who his opponent was… He was able to fight since he had his loved one by his side…

Flure: No matter how dangerous it was… He was able to face it since his loved one believed in him…

Flure: I feel like today I got stronger… because of you.

> Flure…

Flure: Uhm, Aruji-sama…

Flure: If it’s okay with you… Could we try to recreate that scene again right now?

Flure: I think… I’m brave enough to do it now.

> Yeah… I don’t mind.

Flure: Fufu… Thank you.

Flure: Then…

Flure: …No matter what the future may hold… I will continue to protect you for the rest of my life.

Flure: More than any dangers we may face…

Flure: A life without you… Is many times more terrifying to me…

Flure: I…

Flure: ……Towards (Name)-sama, I…

> (He called me by name…)

Flure: You’re special and dear to me… More so than anyone else.

Flure: …As your butler, this isn’t appropriate, but…

Flure: These feelings… I believe…… it’s “love”.

> L-Love…? > You mean…

Flure: I will always continue to protect you, so…

Flure: Believe in me and…

Flure: Please allow me to protect you.

> F-Flure…

Flure: ……O-Or something like that…

Flure: S-Sorry… I got a bit carried away…

> What you said just now…

Flure: …I couldn’t say the lines from the book word for word, so… I changed it a little.

As he said this with a blush on his face, Flure looked at me.

Flure: Aruji-sama… We were just doing a reenactment, but…

Flure: ……Everything I said… Those are my true feelings.

He gave me a reassuring smile while still blushing… And I felt my heart beat grow louder.

I wasn’t able to say it out loud, but Flure is way cooler than the knight from the book…

The two of us, with our faces bright red, locked eyes with each other.

i drew this for a friend

[yua-nism]

I saw your tags and I’m now very intrigued like what do you mean yuhan has the SHORTEST TRAGIC BACKSTORY?!?! JUST WHAT IS GOING ON?? like granted I should have known a game about devil cat butlers would have some angst and tragic backstories but god damn 😭😭

there was a miscalculation on my part and yuuhan's is in fact, not the one with the shortest backstory! however that's only because the others have yet to have their backstories be revealed. sorry for the late answer btw, exams have made me pretty tired.

ok so ill briefly explain a bit. this ties in to the requirement to become a devil butler that is, having felt so much despair that one feels like dying. normal people will be swallowed up by the devils they contract with. the despair essentially acts like chains for the devil. so to talk about their pasts in the Briefest Way Possible (lie):

miyaji has beef with lucas on the surface but really it's because he still can't get over the fact that lucas decided to save him from the verge of death instead of someone else he thought was more capable than him while lucas simply chose to save miyaji because he had higher chances of living.

lucas was basically a child prodigy/genius. since young, he's always loved reading books, and even read thick books that even adults struggled to understand. even though he was lonely and had no one to talk to, he still endured it, skipped grades, and became a doctor at the age of 10+. at first he was looked down on for being young, but an older doctor stood up for him. eventually he became the leader of the doctors, but due to his lack of social skills, he struggled to communicate well, which resulted in the doctors hating him. in the end, all the doctors except lucas quit their job. and the group collapsed. (tbf id quit too... imagine being said you didn't work as hard as him and don't have as much brainpower compared to him as well)

ammon has only had his mom since birth and lived with her, selling flowers for a living. ammon would always make sure the flowers would be sold out at the end of the day for his sickly mother, but if he doesn't manage to sell all of them it's heavily implied his mom whips him like he does to himself even now. they were like super poor but ammon still loved his mom because he only had her

berrien has like this super mysterious past but rn it's starting to unravel in chapter 4. he's an orphan and got adopted into a church backed by the grovanas or whatever nobel family to nurture warriors who could fight angels, but surprisingly the church is actually full of love and was ran by someone who fighted angels named Goetia. berrien also met his soon-to-be older brother figure named Beren/Belen. btw all of the kids go by the last name Cliane because goetia wants everyone to become true family.

when berrien was 26 (Beren 29), goetia died from a chronic disease and Beren had to take on goetia's responsibilities. berrien became the one running the church, however shit happened, Beren got demonized, and berrien used his powers to keep Beren alive after forming a contract with his current devil. he's still residing in berrien's basement as of current, but in a coma. berrien still thinks he himself has no rights to be a butler and really does not believe that he's the one keeping the damn thing running

also the church got destroyed like 2400 years ago and yes berrien is 2000+ years old

haures was born into some wack ass family, his dad ran away with some other woman and his mom projected her rage and stuff like that onto haures, and his newborn younger sister Tricia. haures is 10 years older than Tricia. when he was that age, he ran away from home with Tricia (literal baby) because he no longer trusted his mom to take good care of them. after that, when haures was 18, he trained hard to become a soldier under the grovanas nobles so he could afford to let Tricia get treatment for her worsening vision. one heartbreaking scene was when haures showed off his red uniform to Tricia and she said the blue uniform looked good on him... but 5 years later, haures managed to get Tricia's eyes healed!!! surely nothing bad could happen!!!!

sike. haures caught one of the grovanas nobles illegally trafficking humans with some dealer, and arrested him. however that led to the seller getting revenge, and he decided to capture tricia. he stabbed her and threw her into the woods. when haures found her, she only managed to call out to haures before she died after a few breaths. haures was really really really devastated. he sought revenge on the noble, and while the noble didn't die, he was jailed 5 years for harming the noble (not death sentence because he was determined mentally unstable after losing Tricia.). after he got out of jail, he found the noble again and wanted to kill him, but he was reminded of how Tricia admired him for protecting the people and helping those in need, which stopped him. after that, he became a devil butler because of his proficient fighting skills.

lamli was forced to work at a circus by his mom at the age of 10, while starting up with simple duties, he decided to train to become a circus troupe performer so he'd earn more money for his complaining mother. its heavily implied he's abandoned by her and becomes a devil butler because of his nimble body. btw his mom said she never wanted to have lamli right in front of him. jesus.

fennesz was born into a wealthy happy family, and had an older sister. however his war general father lost a war against nobles, and the economy went into shambles. his mom remarried but even though their stepdad was nice, fennesz and his sister ended up strays on the street due to some reasons i forgot of. fennesz would get bullied by kids on the street because of his father's loss in the war, but his sister would always protect him, and they relied on each other for survival. she's very smart, as shown in the story. she also loves history, as she said, it can help people learn from the past. its heavily implied she is dead.

ok flure! flure grew up with his older sister and mother who both did ballet (can one of you have an actual dad for once?), and he also followed in their footsteps. however when he was a child he was bullied for liking stereotypical girly things, like playing with his sister's dolls, doing ballet and having long hair. even though he was laughed at for doing it, he still underwent strict training guided bg his sister and mother. he never found the courage to tell his sister or mom even though his sister could tell something was wrong (heard him crying at night). he still thinks he should be more courageous to this day and thinks he's pathetic. we don't know what happened to his family but they probably died.

i wanted to talk about boschi but i realized idk much about him apart from the fact that he only had his grandmother (who's actually a great caretaker for once!) and he was bullied for being a bookworm/nerd at school and had no friends. though he did actually beat those bullies up later for mocking his grandma when she wanted to take him back home. she didn't want boschi to fight but she said herself she was actually rooting for him when he was fighting LMAOOO love her for that

lono. ok so lono was really poor and had no parents, and he acted as the older brother for the younger kids living on the streets with him. he'd work as someone who'd clean up rubble from battling angels, which was a job that had unstable income since no one knows when angels are gonna appear. they were family basically. lono would rather starve than let his siblings eat less, and his love of cooking originated here because he loved seeing them happy from his cooking. we don't know what happened to them, but they're probably dead

nac was born into a rich family, and has a father, not sure if he has a mother, never mentioned at least. apparently the stein family was great at sales or trading or smth??? they're just some very rich and well-known name. however on his 12th birthday, his butler led him to the forest near the stein mansion, and revealed himself to be someone the stein family harmed. just as he was about to kill lil nac in shock, nac retaliated in defense. and when he realized, he already stabbed the man at his vital point. his dad appears out of nowhere and reveals that he knew this all along, and that the stein family is actually a long line of assassins with sales as their front personas. nac was trained to kill since then, and thought he'd never feel positive emotions again before he became a devil butler. he also has scars all around his body, probably from the assassin work he did.

lato and his non-blood related brother, Aleks I think? were kidnapped by people who wanted to train people to become angel fighters. however unlike berrien, this time it's just pure cruelness and literal torture. they were 8 when this experiment started. not only that, all the children were sold by their caretakers to this place, including lato and aleks' "mother", the head of their orphanage, who they deeply loved and believed in. when lato finally found a way to escape, almost half the children were dead.

and when he told the others, they told lato that they already gave up on escaping, including aleks. from, i suppose, all the suppressed anger and trauma, he burned the experiment facility down, leaving the other kids to die because he hallucinated that they wanted them to be burned so they could be free. after that, lato returned to the orphanage even though he knew the "mother" sold him in the first place. guess what the mother did! that's right she ran back into the orphanage when she saw him, locked the fucking door and told him to get the fuck away from her. and lato burned the orphanage down.

now onto the new butler trio!

teddy is the one with the most details in his backstory so far. when he was young, he Had a twin brother, and teddy was a far cry from who he is now. he was negative and gloomy compared to his brother, who was positive and talented, and people always favored teddy's brother more. but one day, his brother died protecting him from an angel, but since they were so alike people didn't know whether the one that died was teddy or his brother. and after grieving his brother, teddy decided to become him, and used his brother's name to live on as him so people wouldn't be sad, because "teddy" was the one that died. and that led to teddy forming his personality today. teddy is his actual name though, he started using it after he became a knight. he became a knight because he wanted to protect people from angels.

but during an attack by an intelligent angel, namely seraphim, one of the angels that appeared at the end of chapter 1 and also the major antagonist of the story, teddy's entire unit got killed. at the start of chapter 2.5, he recuperated in a hospital, however he kept terrible nightmares (reliving the massacre, and hearing the voices of his comrades asking him why he abandoned them and why he got to survive) and so didn't sleep at all. he eventually snuck out of the hospital to visit their graves, and then started wondering what the point of him still being alive is. he almost threw himself off a cliff before haures and aruji reached him.

hanamaru. ten years before the story, hanamaru was fleeing from something- he walked all the way from the east to the central, and collapsed in a forest. a nun found him and took him back to a church that doubled as an orphanage. however the nun soon fell ill and died, so hanamaru began taking care of the kids in the church after he was saved by her.

but 5 years later, the church was attacked by angels. he was away from the church when the attack happened, and when he came back, all he saw were angels flying away from the ruined church. only 4 kids survived. hanamaru had a breakdown, and kept kneeling and pressing his head against the ground, saying things like "i couldn't protect them", "i swear ill keep them safe next time", implying this is not the first time something like this has happened. he swore vengeance against the angels that day, that he would never forgive them, and himself. so berrien suspects that the 4 kids that survived were the people that kept hanamaru around. who knows what could've happened if they passed as well...

lastly (finally), yuuhan. at the age of 9, he trained to become a soldier of the sardeis family so he could protect his hometown, and made it after 3 years. he quickly rose up in the ranks, being a prodigy. in the main story, he started doubting his loyalty to the family after they attempted an assassination on the devil butlers. and he betrayed the sardeis family and fell into their trap when investigating forbidden records. he got thrown into jail by the head, and the head decided for his punishment, yuuhan's whole village and everyone he knew there will be burned and killed. he could only despair in jail. in the story, after his prison guard left after serving him food, yuuhan started crying. he called out to his father, his mother, everyone from his hometown, apologizing again and again, believing that it's his fault that they died.

after that, the head, fubuki, paid him a visit. fubuki beat yuuhan up, pushed him to the verge of death, but not grave enough injuries to die. yuuhan asked fubuki to kill him, but fubuki refused. he even says he'll force feed yuuhan till the day of his death execution if necessary. however, yuuhan was rescued by the butlers during his execution. (it took place in a forest with tigers. basically the death penalty is getting eaten by tigers) he became a devil butler after that.

holy shit. also im not typing Bastien's since you can read his backstory from the tls available here.

Tea time with the Butlers

[miaomiao42]

THE BUTLER ACADEMY EVENT LOG IN STORY (ft. Haures Clifford and Flure Garcia)

Haures: At the butler training academy, butlers from other mansions gather... and apparently live together in a shared environment.

Living together with strangers, huh... Sounds like it could be a good experience.

Flure: Living with people I don't know...

M-might be a bit too much for me...

Haures: When Flure first came to the mansion... he was really nervous.

Flure: Yeah... Suddenly having to live in a mansion full of strangers... that's a lot to deal with.

As someone who's shy around strangers, my heart was pounding no matter where I was.

So I wouldn’t have to see anyone’s face… every day felt like I was playing hide-and-seek.

The first time I helped with taking everyone’s measurements as part of the wardrobe duties... I couldn’t stop shaking, and I was drenched in cold sweat.

Haures: Heh... But now, you've come so far that you can talk like this.

Even if it's difficult, continuing without giving up is probably important.

Hmm... I wonder if my ability to live on my own will improve a bit someday...

Flure: It's alright. If you keep at it, you'll be able to do it... probably.

Haures: I see. When Flure says it, it makes me feel like I can be more confident.

Flure: Before coming to the mansion, Haures-san... your sister was the one who handled the household chores, right?

Haures: Yes. Though back then, we had the help of the neighbors.

I was aware that it wasn’t something I was good at back then...

But, once I started living in the mansion with the other butlers...

I realized, for the first time, that my ability to live on my own was... not ordinary, in a bad way.

Flure: Ah... it was then, for the first time...

Haures: Well, anyway... living with strangers will give me all sorts of new experiences.

I hope the butlers gathered at the butler training academy... will also be able to learn something.

Flure: Hehe... Yes, that's right.
