Aiming to be the perfect butler for my lady

Chapter 80- Sick?!

There was something strange about today. Alatia had noticed that people were talking, but she wasn't at the centre of their attention. Well, she was relieved that people had stopped making rumours about her, but she couldn't help but feel a little curious about how this strange anomaly arrived after Alatia left for her home.

Even during pre-homeroom reporting at the Student Council, the President asked Alatia if she had met the new student. The President looked quite excited by the thought of recruiting the new student as a disciplinary officer.

Alatia wondered if this new person was really that strong to arouse so many conversations. However, she didn't ask many questions and after finishing the report, she made her way to the classroom.

The elite students were all given the first section as their classroom, so Alatia knew she would meet the person there.

As she thought, the moment she stepped inside the classroom, a sudden rush of angelic aura crashed against her, and she had to momentarily close her eyes.

The overwhelming emotions of a certain individual became overbearing for her and Alatia took a moment to collect herself. Thankfully, Kyle wasn't around or he might have gotten worried.

'I hope he is doing well...' Thinking about him, Alatia couldn't help but feel a little sad and lonely. He didn't have much sleep last night for some unknown reason so in the morning, Alatia forced him to rest for the day.

Naturally, he was reluctant, but against her weapons of destruction (tears), he yielded.

Walking inside, she found the person who released such a daunting aura to be occupying the frontmost seat, the seat that Alatia was expecting to be empty.

Maintaining her composure, she walked towards the brown-haired girl who nonchalantly sat there while reading a book.

From one glance, Alatia could say that she is a pretty girl with homely vibes. A comfortable demeanour and an approachable attitude. However, that sudden stillness of emotions Alatia sensed from her was quite terrifying. No person she has seen with such serene emotions. There was nothing Alatia could gaze at other than calmness in her aura.

"Oh, hey." Suddenly, the girl turned her attention to Alatia, and with a sweet smile, she waved her hand.

"You must be the renowned Princess about whom everyone talks about." She continued, "I know I shouldn't have sat here, but my far sight is a little weak, so can you manage?"

She collected her books and shifted to the extreme left while she asked Alatia in a sweet tone.

Alatia didn't have to glance around to see that the whole class was already filled and she wouldn't find any vacant seats. Surely, she could ask someone to sacrifice their seat for her but Kyle wouldn't be happy to hear that she has asserted dominance by using her status.

He becomes too upright sometimes.

Resigning to her fate, she sat down beside the strange girl after placing the bag on the desk.

"Ah, by the way, I am Charlotte." The girl offered her hand to Alatia as she introduced herself.

"Alatia." Briefly, she introduced herself and ignored the offered hand.

The girl named Charlotte chuckled and pulled her hand away.

Soon, a familiar face walked inside the classroom, followed by another familiar face.

Alatia didn't bother to look at them for more than a glance worth of time before she began to take out the books for the homeroom.

Logan was accompanying Sasha as they had become quite good friends in recent times. They shared the same desk, and through Sasha's persuasion, Elera—Sasha's maid—sparred with Logan from time to time as well.

The duo glanced at Alatia for once before their eyes went to the brown-haired.

"Lord...how did the two strongest of the class agree to sit together?" Sasha couldn't help but exclaim while covering her mouth.

Logan's eyes narrowed at Alatia's cold temperament as he led Sasha to the second seat; just behind the one on which Alatia and Charlotte were sitting.

"Hello. I know it is quite late to say this but I hope we will have a great year together." Surprising not only the person to whom these words were spoken but to everyone in the class, Charlotte greeted Sasha and Logan with a pretty smile on her face.

This was the first time Charlotte has talked to someone for more than two or three words. Her small conversations with other students gave an impression that another Princess have joined the class.

Logan and Sasha were so shocked that they didn't even say anything in response before the homeroom teacher arrived.

"Good morning class, I hope you all are doing well..." The normal greetings were exchanged and the theoretical class went on.

In the third period, the instructor of physical education arrived and told the students to get changed into their battle uniform.

Alatia naturally went with the others to the lockeroom and strangely Charlotte was always a few meters around her. For once Alatia thought that she might be a spy or an assassin sent from another country to abduct or maybe kill Alatia. However, under the close inspection of the school administration there was very little chance for such to be the case.

Regardless, Alatia remained on guard all the time around her as they changed their clothes in the locker room.

"I noticed Your Highness, you don't have a servant following you?" Suddenly, while she was wearing the battle vest over her shirt, Alatia heard that question from Charlotte.

Alatia became a little sad to think about Kyle as she subconscious said, "He's sick..."

"What happened to him?!" Alatia frowned to hear such enraged voice as she turned towards Charlotte. She was expecting to see the 'red' in Charlotte aura based on her tone.

However, the moment she turned towards the cinnamon haired girl there was no redness in her hue nor she seemed offended at all.

'Was I imagining things?' In the first place, it was nonsensical for Charlotte to be worried for Kyle; someone she doesn't even know.

Alatia didn't respond to her anymore and after changing clothes she exited the room.

*************

Kyle woke up some time around ten on the clock, which was quite strange for him. He always woke up early before sunrise to help Alatia prepare for the day.

However, last night he was quite restless because of that weird feeling that someone was around. It was quite disturbing that's why he never slept until morning.

Alatia urged him to stay back and rest, and truth be told he needed rest.

"Ugh I am hungry..." Deciding to eat something before taking a bath, he went to the kitchen and found there was a plate resting for him.

He uncovered the dish and found four sandwiches and a sweet note waiting for him.

A smile bloomed on his face as he read the small note;

[A little bit of salt, some vegetables and a lots of love. Get well soon <3]

Kyle looked at the note and couldn't stop grinning like a fool in love. His girlfriend is just too adorable.

He decides to take a bite of the sandwich when suddenly he heard someone knocking on the door.

"Fuu...who would be knocking at this hour..." Feeling a little annoyed he went to check the door after combing his hair a bit and straightening his clothes.

He expected someone from the security or maybe Alatia herself, but when he opened the door his expectations turned into shock to see the person standing there.

"Professor Clara?"
