《I Am an Evil Lord Yet, Why Are They Happy to Serve Under Me?》Chapter 03 : Talk Between Master and Servants
Advertisement
"Ah, it is nice to meet both of you. My name is Urien Gregorios. I am the one who summoned you," I gave them a quick bow.
It was Gurguit who came up and introduced himself first by dropping into one knee, "It is nice to meet you, my lord. My name is Gurguit. I am also the commander of "Knights of the Sun" and with the permission of King of Knights Alfred, my troops had come to aid you in your need. You may use us as you see fit."
"I see. I thank you from the bottom of my heart, Sir Gurguit. And you easily got permission from the King of Knights just like that? And trusting me easily like that, what if I use you and your troops for evil?" I asked.
"About that, only King of Knights know the reason, my lord. He told me and my troops that we can trust you with all of our hearts. My King never make the mistake. So, I will trust you with all of my heart and swear myself as your knight," he replied without looking up.
"I understand. You may raise, my knight."
What the hell?! {Did you have your hand in this, System?}
[No, host. It is not me but higher-ups. The highlighter are treating subjects like these with care. They always request permission from the subject or higherups of the person you will be summoning.]
{I see. So, whoever I am going to summon is approved by themselves or their higher-ups?}
[That is correct, host. Even though there are many variables in Multiverse, higher-ups like to make sure everything goes well.]
{May I know who the higher-ups are?}
[No, host. But what you need to know is most of the higher-ups are fond of you. They might not help you directly but they will help you by negotiating with the Planet Will of the universe you are going to visit. Most of the Planet Will does not like the fact that souls from outside of their universe come into their universe.]

That's means Noir negotiate with this Planet Will for me, right? What a good guy. I must show my gratitude when I see him again.
Gurguit stands up and gave me a bow. Then it is Izayoi's turn.
"It is nice to meet you, Master. I currently don't have a name. It was my Mistress Remilia Scarlet that gave me the name Sakuya Izayoi and the name died along with her. If possible, I would like to request a name from you," she gave me a bow just like most of the maids do, i.e.; by linking both of her hands in the front and slightly bowing.
"I see. I know it is rude but may I know how your late Mistress died? It is impossible for someone as strong as her to fall in the battle," I tried asking.
"No, my Mistress died of old age. I lost count after a few thousand. But I assure you that both she and her sister died peacefully," she told me with some sorrow on her face.
"I see. I am sorry about your loss. About the name, I will give you one now. Luna, your new name will be Luna. Luna of house Gregorios," I gave her the new name.
"I thank you, Master," she gave me a bow again.
"Sir Gurguit, I am sorry for not able to bring out the whole troop. I am currently having the problem, you see. Because of my parents, the people in this land are very poor. If I were to bring out the whole troop, there might be some commotion," I tried to tell him the state of my land.
"I understand, my lord. I can see that you are the Lord who cares about his people," he smiles.
"Who cares about them? I am going to be an Evil Lord. I am going to squeeze dry their money after I made their living condition stable," I said with the glare, which looks cute in his eyes as five years old is glaring at him.

"I understand, my lord. I understand," he smiles, again.
"And another thing. Can you train me? I want to learn how to use swords," I requested.
"Of course, my lord. I'm glad to teach you how to wield swords," he gave me a salute. I gave him a nod as a reply.
"And Luna, here take some money and go to an inn in the city together with Gurguit. And I will send you a carriage to the inn tomorrow. And I haven't asked you before. Even after working as a maid for over thousands of years, do you still want to work as a maid?" I asked.
"I do, Master. You do not have to worry about it," she replied.
I smiled. "Then when you come tomorrow, I will make you the head maid of the house."
"I understand, Master."
"Then until tomorrow, Gurguit will be your pad-ner. *Twitch* Take care of her, Gurguit," I said ignoring the twitch from Luna.
"I will carry out the mission you gave, my lord."
"Luna, please teleport together with him," I said.
After blinking, they vanished. I don't know how she teleported together with Gurguit. But the image that appears inside my mind is that Luna carrying Gurguit like a potato sack while the time is stopped.
Now, I'll get back to my accursed paper works. I dived myself inside the paper works till midnight. I only stopped during dinner and going to the toilet. After finishing paper works for today, I went to take a bath and dive right into the bed. My five years old body can't handle the tiredness.
The next morning, while I'm inside the working room, Keith informs me that Luna and Gurguit have arrived.
"I see that the two of you are here. Keith, are you here?"
"You called me, my lord?" Keith entered the room.
"From now on Luna will be the head maid. And I gave her the authority to dismiss any servants who don't do their work properly. Pad-ner *Twitch* up with her and fire all of the servants who are lazing around," I said. Again, ignoring her twitch.
Without questioning my order, Keith gesture Luna to follow behind him. And Luna, without questioning my decision, follows behind Keith. Sigh, I am blessed with good servants.
"And as for you, Gurguit, can you stay near me as a guard when we are not practicing sword art? You can have your free time after I summon another person or when Luna is free from her work. I think Luna will take about a week to see all the servants of the house," I told Gurguit.
"I understand, my lord. I will stay by your side before Miss Luna comes back," like usual, he gave me a quick bow.
Dammit, I need to meet with other political masses from the city. Should I just use up all my summons now? That's… a good idea. Why didn't I think about it before?
{System, use up all the remaining tickets.}

Phantom Storm
"Have you heard, the entire Bonanno crew was brutally murdered!" Exclaimed a youth in his early teens. "What? you're lying, again!" Another similarly aged child responded with crisp denial in his tone. After all, the crew was infamous for their ruthlessness. An eery silence passed between them. Soon enough, the teens' curiosity trumped his ego, and he found himself inquiring in a meek voice. "So...Who did it?" "I heard my father talking about it while he was drunk. Guess what he said?..." The child responded, he was a natural-born storyteller. Listening intently, the other teen urged him on. "It was done by a single person. When the police arrived, the bodies were charred black, likely the work of an electro mage. Most had an arrow or two lodged in their body, and a few were even chopped into neat little slices by a sharp blade." He paused, inhaling sharply. "All the victims had shocked expressions on their faces. As if the enemy was invisible or something. That's why they call that person the Phantom Storm!" concluded the adolescent with an excited glint in his eyes. 2 CHAPTERS PER WEEK (Canada time) [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] -------------------------------------------- Follow Itsuki as he is reincarnated in an unfamiliar world, left to discover where he belongs in such a place.
