  Ree stood silently at the side with a calm expression. He was looking at the three, namely Choi Han, Rosalyn and Lock, who was in front of him.

  "Hyung, Noona, this is Ree-hyung that I've been telling you about! Hyung, this is my noona, Rosalyn and my hyung, Choi Han."

  The brown haired butler didn't know how he got stuck in this predicament. Right after they arrived back at the mansion, the young teen immediately greeted him.

  Ree, being the polite butler he was, had no choice but to entertain him. Thus, he greeted him back. Well, who would've thought that the young wolf would actually introduce him to the two person he have been trying to avoid all this while.

  "It is an honor to meet you."

  Ree gave the two a polite smile. Still as calm and as composed as ever even under their scorching gaze.

  In truth, his back was already drenched in cold sweat. Seriously, they did deserve the title of the strongest mage and swordsmaster. Even their stares were intimidating.

  Choi Han, who was previously looking at him with such innocent suspicion, finally smiled at him. Showing his famous out of place innocence that was always portrayed in the novel.

  Seeing that her partner already erased his suspicion toward the brown haired, Rosalyn proceeded to smile in a friendly way as well.

  "It's nice to meet you. We've heard a lot about you from Lock."

  Rosalyn said with a smile. The tense atmosphere vanished and was replaced by a friendly and bright one.

  Ree internally sweatdropped. Feeling rather perplexed at the sudden change.

  'Well, at least they aren't hostile towards me.'

  "Although I didn't know what you guys were doing last time, it's still good to see that you're all safe."

  Ree gave an amiable smile while pretending to be ignorant. Fortunately, it worked as the three totally let go of their guard.

  "Yes, well, we were surprised to see you as well. It's not everyday you see someone so composed while holding two bombs. And by your lack of reaction when they exploded, it seemed that you are actually already aware that they were indeed bombs."

  "I was really surprised to see you there as well hyung! Specially when I realized that you're actually holding those items."

  Rosalyn's statement had a hidden undertone. While Lock's were innocent and genuine.

  Faced with the two similar comments with contradicting meanings, Ree couldn't help but falter for a moment. Of course, this didn't escaped Rosalyn's sharp eyes.

  "Well, I have an exceptionally good intuition."

  Ree vaguely said before turning his attention toward the silent black haired knight that was smiling while observing him.

  "I heard from Mr. Beacrox that you're young master's personal knight. It's nice to officially meet you. I'm the newly appointed butler of the young master."

  Ree made sure to appear as harmless as possible even tho he knew Choi Han has already measured his strength.

  "Yes. It's nice to meet you."

  Blunt and simple. It was a greeting that was so "Choi Han", Ree couldn't help but inwardly let an awkward chuckle.

  'His attitude to others really is incomparable to when it comes to the young master.'
