Three days later, Jason Pei demonstrated his cleaning skills to Ms. Mary and Eagle, and he successfully got a raise. It seemed that neither Ms. Mary nor Eagle wanted to let Emily clean the carpet anymore.
Jason Pei looked at his NPC page and found that it had been upgraded from the most basic level to the green level. He belonged to the Golden Rose Manor and his title became a formal "personal butler".
"If you look at it this way, the day when I can get rid of Mosaic won't be too far away, right?" He thought optimistically, "As long as I upgrade to the blue NPC panel, Mosaic will most likely disappear."
"No, why should I care so much about mosaics? Whether or not that naughty kid Iger has mosaics on his body...what does it matter!"
Anyway, he couldn't see whether there were mosaics on other people's bodies, after all, he was Eagle's personal butler.
Tomorrow, "Bix's Cube" will officially start its internal testing, and he saw the announcement!
Jason Pei felt extremely regretful that Iger didn't like going out at all. As a personal butler, he didn't have the opportunity to go out as often as the miscellaneous manager Vago. In the Arab continent of this era, as an oppressed race, although he could get a meager salary, there was no concept of vacation in this manor.
"Tomorrow will definitely be a day to witness history, but I'm trapped in the manor, playing with cats out of boredom with my naughty kids..." Jason Pei sighed, but he really didn't want to miss this historic day, and finally couldn't help but take the time to find Ms. Mary.
"You want to take a leave tomorrow and go back to Casey City?" Ms. Mary said seriously, "Why, as far as I know, you don't have any relatives in the city."
The Golden Rose Manor did not investigate Jason Pei's specific origins, but they still had to pretend. Jason Pei simply told the public that he was a Balster who was trafficked here, which also fulfilled Ms. Mary's statement.
"When I was trafficked here, I hid some important things in the city," Jason Pei tried to make up a lie, "Now that I have settled down in the manor, I want to stay here forever, so I want to take out the things and keep them with me."
Lady Ms. Mary looked at him expressionlessly for a while before speaking, "I can't make the decision. You need to ask the young master for leave."
Jason Pei: ...
If the kid was so easy to talk to, would he have to come to Ms. Mary? !
Because based on his understanding of Eagle's temper in such a short time, he felt that Eagle would never agree to his leave - no, to be precise, he would not agree to any of his requests.
However, the desire to witness history overcame everything, and Jason Pei bravely explained to Eagle his intention to take leave.
Eagle's green eyes looked over casually, "Do you want to go to Casey City?"
"Yes, young master. I promise that I will come back after getting the things and will not waste any time." Jason Pei tried his best to make the most sincere gesture, and he was almost half-kneeling down to hold Eagle's hand and swear.
To some extent, Jason Pei is still very flexible. Before traveling through time, he had suffered a lot of beatings from society and he has never been the kind of person who cannot save face.
Iger put down the book in his hand, stood up and walked in front of him.
Although he was only fourteen years old, he was almost as tall as Jason Pei. It was not that Jason Pei was too short, but that Igel was too tall. You know, Jason Pei's height was a few centimeters higher than the standard adult male height of the Asian continent set by the system.
Although Iger still had the physique of a teenager, his height was indeed too tall for his age.
"You're lying." Eagle suddenly said.
Jason Pei's heart tightened, but he showed the most sincere and innocent smile on his face, sighed and said, "Master, I didn't."
Iger looked carefully at Jason Pei's handsome face. Judging from his appearance, no matter what he said, it was very convincing.
Jason Pei felt that he could be more tolerant of Igel because of his face, and Igel actually felt that he was really good to Jason Pei.
He has never been so nice to anyone!
"Ethan," Eagle said, and a shadow slowly emerged from the shadows beside him. Soon, a tall and thin young man appeared silently, which scared Jason Pei. "Go and tell Frank that I'm going to Casey City tomorrow."
"Yes, young master." The young man named Ethan disappeared into the shadows again.
Jason Pei took a closer look and felt that this should be an expert, probably a profession similar to assassin or thief in the game.
At this time, Iger leaned close to Jason Pei's ear and whispered, "You go with me tomorrow, I want to watch you take out the things." He paused, curved the corners of his lips, "Jason Pei, if you dare to lie to me, haha."
Jason Pei felt that the last chuckle was filled with the greatest malice in the world.
He is obviously just a 14-year-old boy, and Jason Pei doesn't know why he makes people feel scary.
After Eagle moved away, Jason Pei tried hard to resist the urge to rub his ears. Why did he feel that Eagle's breath on his ears seemed cool?
Despite being "threatened" by Iger, Jason Pei was muttering in his heart, who am I trying to scare? Although taking things is a scam, it shouldn't be that difficult if I really want to take them, right?
Besides, the city might be in chaos tomorrow because of the arrival of the players, and who knows what will happen.
Therefore, Jason Pei felt that he was not afraid at all.
On this day, he worked diligently as usual, feeling proud that he had done his job as a personal butler to perfection.
Eagle looked at Jason Pei's brisk steps and a smile on his face and narrowed his eyes slightly. Jason Pei himself was probably not aware that he was more gentle, considerate, and attentive today than usual.
Iger has always been very sensitive, and he can easily detect any emotional changes of people around him.
However, Jason Pei is a bit strange.
...His mood seemed to be constantly changing.
Even from the beginning to the end, what I always face is that infinitely tolerant and gentle smile.
This is actually quite interesting.
"Young Master, this is a letter from Count Ashkro." Jason Pei placed the thin letter in front of Eagle.
Eagle opened the letter himself instead of asking someone else to do it for him.
Although Jason Pei had only been in Golden Rose Manor for a short time, he knew that Count Ashkro seemed to be not very old. He was one of the friends of their bad-tempered young master, who had a relatively good relationship with him among a handful of his friends.
The fact that Master Leo Eagle actually had friends was also a topic that the servants in the manor liked to complain about in private, but of course they only dared to mention it quietly and vaguely.
However, Jason Pei could understand that if Eagle's status was very high, some people might not be friends with him out of sincerity, but more for the sake of benefits.
Iger himself is probably aware of this, so Count Akin Ashcroft is probably the kind of friend that Iger truly recognizes.
Although I heard that the young earl doesn't seem to have a very good reputation.
It was actually Eagle who sent a letter to Akin a while ago, saying that he had a new personal butler. He also mentioned the butler's interesting mood changes and his infinite tenderness when facing himself. He told Akin about how he drove away servants and butlers from time to time as a funny story, and Akin would also tell Eagle about his various absurd and dissolute deeds.
The content of their correspondence has always been these meaningless things.
This time, when Iger opened the letter, he was immediately dissatisfied. The lazy Akin only replied to him with two short sentences.
"There are so many people in this world whose emotions are constantly changing, but you never find them interesting."
"Iger, your new butler, is he very good-looking?"
Iger: ...
Pursing his lips, the naughty kid tore the thin piece of letter paper into pieces bit by bit and threw them into Max's bowl of fish soup.
Max meowed and refused to drink the fish soup that tasted like ink!
"Jason Pei."
"Yes, young master." Jason Pei was not bold enough to peek at Eagle's letter. He didn't know what the count wrote, but it seemed that Eagle was not very happy.
"Go make Pecos a new bowl of fish soup."
Jason Pei agreed reluctantly. He not only had to serve the young master, but also the big fat black cat.
"You cook it yourself."
"Yes, sir."
He had to be good all day, after all, he had to rely on Igor to take him out tomorrow. Jason Pei felt that no matter how difficult Igor's behavior was today, he could still become a Ninja Turtle.
Besides, it’s just cooking a bowl of fish soup for the cat, isn’t that a piece of cake?
Thinking about tomorrow, Jason Pei was actually a little nervous, but also very excited.
What he was afraid of was that he would not see the players tomorrow, and he would be the only one to travel alone to this world, a real world that had nothing to do with games.
Only by seeing those players appear could he truly soothe the anxiety he has been feeling for some time.
He is not alone, not the only lonely person, lost in this familiar yet strange world.
Even if those players were all strangers, they were the people he felt most familiar with because they came from the same world as him.
"It's okay, everything will go well. Can't I read the forum? This is the game world." Jason Pei was still convincing himself seriously before closing his eyes and sleeping.
In novels, there are people who like to think they are unique, traveling to another world with a golden finger and becoming the only protagonist.
At this moment, Jason Pei is looking forward to countless players entering this world, making him less unique.
In the end, he still couldn't sleep that night.
The next day, Jason Pei personally helped Eagle put on a gorgeous and complicated pure white shirt, a pair of black breeches with gold rose patterns, and a pair of brown boots made of the leather of some rare and exotic animal, and a long coat with a light gold front decorated with tiny gems and gold patterns.
Ms. Mary personally combed his long, smooth golden hair and tied it with a pure silver braided headband, saying, "Master, you haven't been out for a long time, right? It would be nice to go out for a walk." She then looked at the shadow beside her, "Aken, you must protect the Master's safety."
Eagle said indifferently, "What's so good about Casey City? It's backward and boring."
Lady Ms. Mary sighed, "Anyway, this is already your territory..."
Territory? Jason Pei was startled. He just knew that Casey City was Eagle's territory. It should be said that no one among the players had discovered this.
Casey City has a mayor, but the mayor never mentioned which lord the city belongs to. It would be strange to avoid talking about the Golden Rose Manor, which is so close to Casey City.
This thought flashed through his mind and then he put it behind him. Nothing today was as important as the start of the game's internal testing.
Jason Pei glanced at the gorgeous clock not far away. The time was now 9:15 in the morning. Eagle's daily schedule did not change much. He got up on time at 7 o'clock in the morning and went to bed at 10 o'clock in the evening. At 7 o'clock, he would have been in time anyway, but he didn't expect that it was already this time in the blink of an eye.
The main reason was that this young master spent too much time just getting up, eating breakfast and changing clothes. Jason Pei was a little anxious. You know, the internal test would start at 10 am!
The time ratio between the game and the real world is one to one, so they should be synchronized in time.
So, he only had forty-five minutes left, but no matter how anxious he was, he couldn't just stuff Eagle into the carriage and urge him to go faster.
I can only pretend to be gentle and quiet and hide my anxiety deep in my heart.
Fortunately, they finally got on the carriage before half past nine.
Jason Pei looked at the not-so-good scenery outside the window, nervously wiped his sweaty palms on his pants, and then quietly clenched his fists.
Eagle half leaned on the soft cushion, looking at his personal butler with some confusion.
After watching it over and over again, I still find his ever-changing emotions very interesting.
Anyway, Iger felt that Akin was wrong. Jason Pei was interesting not just because he was good-looking.
...Well, he is indeed quite good-looking.
But not as pretty as me.
Iger snorted and decided not to look at him anymore.
