Mage of Phantomhive

Chapter 1: The Rose-Red Tyrant, Act 11

Baldroy is here! Wonder how the Faustian Dorm will be now that Ciel has a war veteran under his sleeve? Let's hope that he'll stay away from the kitchen... Just like a certain fae.

-Faustian Dorm, Ciel's Bedroom-

Ciel stirred awake in the sheets as Sebastian pulled the curtains, it was an earlier time than usual thanks to being enrolled in NRC along with a busy schedule "Today is the Unbirthday party, master. We shouldn't be late for an important event", Sebastian reminded as he brought out one of Ciel's formal clothing.

Now where did those clothes come from? Well, since Sebastian didn't have time to find the proper clothes for the event beforehand. He decided to use one of his abilities (▶: "Or as what Idia calls IRL cheat codes") that would let him quickly obtain the needed outfit.

However, he'll need to minimize the usage since they need to lay low ever since the cafeteria incident. It was already a relief that Crewel volunteered to help them provide their required clothes on campus, along with Anota paying for their sets of modern clothes.

As much as Ciel is not a fan of social parties, he does need to maintain a reputation. But also, he looks forward to seeing Riddle again because there is something about the redhead that interests Ciel...

Finally getting out of bed, he goes to take a bath as he ponders about today's agenda. Letting the warm water hit his skin along with the silence that surrounded the room "Roseheart's soul... It's an interesting one... Hmm", Ciel muttered as he looked at himself through the reflection from the water.

-Faustian Dorm, Hallway-

Sebastian goes to the guest bedrooms and knocks on Ace's room first "Trappola, it's time to get up. Breakfast will arrive at the dining room and I highly suggest that you take a bath first before going downstairs", Sebastian says as he can hear the light snoring of the male inside the room.

"Five more minutes!..", Ace's voice was muffled by the door but Sebastian heard him clearly and was a tad annoyed since he wanted to be punctual, so he called upon the ghosts and motioned them to wake up the freshman that was inside the room, using ANY method as long as it gets the job done.

The ghosts were on board and phases through the door while suppressing their giggles. The butler moved on to the next room and could already hear movement pass the door "I'll be downstairs, Sebastian! Just need to fix my necktie!", Deuce called out as Sebastian could only sigh in relief.

A little grateful that he doesn't need to repeat himself to Deuce, he decides to show a little bit of appreciation "Do you want help in fixing it for you?", Sebastian asked "Um, I'm okay! Just need to figure out how Ace did it... Was it like this?.. Or no, was it like this?..", Deuce refused as Sebastian could hear him muttering.

 "Are you sure?", Sebastian inquired again but held back his chuckles as he could hear Deuce groan in frustration as he seemed to be struggling with fixing the necktie "I... Yeah, I need help...", Deuce sighed in defeat as Sebastian entered the room.

-Faustian Dorm, Guest Bedroom-

Seeing Deuce standing in front of the mirror while attempting to fix his necktie reminded him of the early days when he started playing as a butler. Sebastian grabs onto Deuce's loose necktie and properly fixes it while showing the freshman how to wear it himself.

"Oooh... Thanks. That's definitely an easier way to remember. The housewarden didn't like it when our uniforms weren't worn correctly and he would fix them himself while scolding us a little bit", Deuce said as he thanked the butler.

"Your welcome, Spade. Don't be hesitant to ask for my help, a Phantomhive servant must always be competent to service the guests with the utmost hospitality after all", Sebastian replied as he went to grab the male's laundry.
