S1 E10: The Guide to Becoming The Best

Butler: Rise-and-Shine! Mr. Ren! 

-Sunlight hitting my eyes, the guy pulled the window curtains-

Jiro: Mmmm, close the curtain Felt?! 

Butler: Sir, I brought you breakfast. Your sister actually got up earlier this morning.

Jiro: (Groggy) Seriously, Ugh. Gosh, my head...

Butler: Do you want me to bring some medicine, sir? A healer?

Jiro: No...I'm fine. Thank you.

Butler: Anyways, I started you off today with a peeled grapefruit, scrambled eggs, and sliced fruits...consisting berries, strawberries, and hints of---cut appas! Enjoy!

Jiro: Wow, this dish looks amazing! 

Butler: I'm glad you like it, sir. I made it myself. Oh my---I forgot your drink

-Handing me a glass of something green inside...he called it a shake-

Jiro: Um, what's inside this?

Butler: Ah, the shake contains much protein to help strengthen the muscles throughout today. It also provides some energy and is good for your health, sir. My apologies, I'll grab something else...

Jiro: No...That's alright! Thank you very much...<chewing on the berries> You did an excellent job. 

Butler: (Joyful) You're welcome. Glad someone appreciates my ideas of dieting. Adieu, sir. Please ask if you need anything else.

Jiro: Yup...

-Soon pushing the cart out of the door, he was soon about to close it until I noticed something was missing...MY SWORD-

Jiro: (Paranoid) Excuse me sir, did someone take my blade from my room last night?

Butler: Oh, you mean the black sword with the silver handle, Right?

Jiro: Yes.

Butler: (Honest) I didn't mention it to you but while I passed by Sir Reinhard...he went inside your room and took your weapon off that counter. 

Jiro: Dammit. How could I be so careless?! Thanks....I'm gonna find that bastard---

Butler: Please, don't be mad Mr. Ren...he actually gave me this note while you were asleep. I didn't read it, of course that would be rude.

Jiro: Can I see it?

Butler: Absolutely, here you go, sir?

-Handing the note over to me-

Jiro: (Interpreting) I-I-I CAN'T READ THIS GIBBERISH! WHAT DOES IT SAY?

Butler: Wait, you can't read this message, sir.

Jiro: (Embarrassed) Yes....

Butler: Don't be ashamed, Mr. Ren. I was actually the same as you. Hearing where you're from, the slums is the worst district to live in and our education system inside the city is lower than everyone would expect. Paying to learn from a tutor is expensive nowadays...or even affording for a class. I could read it to you, if you want?

Jiro: That would be much appreciated...Thank you.

Butler: Of course, let me see...

-Takes the letter from my hand and began reading-

Butler: Hmm, so apparently he didn't explain why he took your weapon the other night, but Sir Reinhard is a reasonable man. He is looking forward to meeting with you in the courtyard behind the castle.
