Chapter 81: [81] Plum Blossom Swordsman Reincarnated in a Count’s Family [5]
"Young Master Eugene. What brings you here?"
I looked at the old butler standing upright in front of me.
Hassent Fortan.
He is the head butler of the Pruckus family, which holds the title of Baron. He's in his 60s, his snow-white hair was neatly combed back. His face was full of wrinkles that couldn't be hidden, but his black butler uniform was impeccably wrinkle-free.
Hassent has been serving the Pruckus Count family since the time of the previous family head. Not even the current family head or any of the vassals can command him.
'He's also the assassin who silently carried out the dirty work of the previous family head.'
He was once the master of the now non-existing assassin group, 'Fatal Sting.'
'In the original story, he's described as incredibly strong, but he retired without much fanfare.'
The reason for his retirement was simply his age. After that, he wasn't even mentioned in the original story.
"Head Butler Hassent. I have a request."
Hassent is a neutral figure who stays out of the family's internal politics, but he cannot be ignored. If he were to take a dislike to me and turn into my enemy... that would be a nightmare.
"Are you speaking to me?"
