As if catching the rouge wasn't trouble enough, the boys in the workshop were injured in the attack, and since then, more work was made for Grelle and Will.
Grelle had to be out in the field more. Her next stop was in Houndsworth for there had been rising deaths there recently.
Of course Phantomhive was there with his butler, and to her surprise, there was a maid of the now late Lord Barrymore who was really an angel and the talk of the demon hound was true.
She would've been able to take it's soul if it weren't for Phantomhive deciding to take it in on Angela's insistence, and because Sebastian hated dogs.
There was just something about the angel that wasn't right. She'd have to report this to William.
She also hoped that Phantomhive could keep a tight leash on the hound.
"Sutcliff. What are you doing here?" Phantomhive asked as he saw her mounting a horse as her job was done.
"Work obviously. With what happened around here, of course we reapers can't ignore it for long. Well, I suppose you stopped the attacks so that means less work for this village, especially since it'll be a royal estate soon. Normally, one of my juniors would've handled this, but the rouge you caught for us had destroyed a good part of our workshop and some of the scythes of other reapers. It'll also be a while before their scythes are restored since it's not easy. As of now, there's only a handful of us available in the field to get souls, and we had to jump from place to place." Grelle said as she rode her horse next to the carriage.
"Well that's unfortunate. Mayhaps you desire a vacation some time?" Sebastian said with one of his 'charming' smiles, and Grelle frowned at that.
"As flattering as that is, I can't. It'll take another two weeks before things at headquarters get back to normal. And right now, I must be going." Grelle said before snapping the reigns making her horse run.
......
"Hey, who was that lovely lady?" Finny asked.
"I don't know, but Sebastian and the Master seemed to know her." Bard said.
"She was also very polite, yes she was!" Meirin said.
"Ho-ho-ho." Tanaka laughed.
