"I'm both a watchdog and helper for you, Princess."

"So?"

"So please use me more often. I'm pretty decent at my job."

Viola squinted her eyes.

"Are you sure you're capable enough?"

Of course, I know.

It was mentioned several times in the novel.

There are at least three descriptions that describe 'Xenon as a very good butler.'

Few people have been portrayed as someone dedicated to their work.

"I've shown you an ugly side of me, so I have to disagree that I'm competent. Aren't I?"

"But it is better than claiming to be incompetent."

Viola nodded and said.

"You've made two mistakes, so you'll have to do better."

"Of course."

Xenon bent down.

"Xenon's at your service, master."

Viola secretly studied Xenon's face.

I've heard that he's quick-witted since he was young, and I've already read the novels.

'You must be itching to ask.'

I noticed that he was barely holding back his curiosity.

"Ask me questions. But make sure it is worth it."

"Really?"

"You look like you're dying to ask."

"Am I that transparent with my expression?"

"Yes."

Xenon scratched his cheek gently.

He smiled but kept his eyes to mine.

'Is it insight or out of tact?'

Naturally, Xenon could not have imagined that Viola had read the novel.

"I understand you're quick-witted because you grew up in a poor family, but..."

For now, he concluded that she was quick to adapt and asked.

"Why did you allow Prince Vixen to hug you?"

The original answer was, 'I don't think it's your business.'

Viola grinned.

"It's none of your business."

"I guess you're right."

Arin adapted the answer a little differently.

She chose a better reply than the original Viola.

"Hmm, it was a good way to analyze his body shape. It's also easy to identify weak areas. When one holds a sword, you can measure the length of their arms, the body's mobility, and where the musculature has developed by touching the muscles. So, that's why I allowed him to hug me."

Xenon lost his words for a moment.

He was told that she's just a seven years old girl from the slums without any education.

If she wasn't taught, it must be out of natural instinct.

Xenon replied, concealing his embarrassment.

"That's why you allowed Prince Vixen to hug you?"

"Do you think that's a problem?"

"The problem is...not that."
