Chapter 545: Chapter 544 Another Plan Recruiting a Butler

To reach G-level strength, one needed a point of Spiritual Ability Traits.

Lu Zixun had known this beforehand and had nothing to complain about.

It was simply changing from a fully automatic upgrade to a semi-automatic one.

His power enhancement not only added new abilities but also allowed his Twisted value to reach a ceiling of three hundred.

During the previous promotion period, his Twisted value had unexpectedly reached 120 points...

Lu Zixun’s feeling value was incapable of completely eradicating it, which was truly unexpected.

If this whisper could be heard by everyone...

Lu Zixun’s mouth twitched slightly, realizing just how difficult the process of cultivating Spiritual Energy could be.

When he retracted the remaining Spiritual Energy around him and released it again, Lu Zixun found that his Perception was much better than at the J-level.

Now, the spiritual power flow could be called a Spiritual Energy Line.

It was smoother to control and more concealed.

Overall, Lu Zixun was quite satisfied with this upgrade.

After retracting the Spiritual Energy Line, Lu Zixun returned to his villa in Trancy, where he had previously overlooked certain things.

Now, Lu Zixun discovered quite a few oddities.

For instance...

There was a strange aura on Trancy’s body, one that didn’t belong to any creature Lu Zixun had ever seen.

It wasn’t that Trancy was a corpse, but rather, something obscured the air of a living person.

This familiar method of concealment made Lu Zixun think of a certain Ancient God.

At that moment, Lu Zixun felt immensely relieved.

He was glad that he had decided to deal with Trancy after his strength had been enhanced, for with J-level inspiration, Trancy would’ve seemed nothing but an ordinary person to him.

"Tricky indeed."

Muttering silently in his mind, Lu Zixun decided to change his strategy.

He shifted from resolving the Trancy situation to stealing the Amulet.

Dealing with the unknown current state of Trancy was much more difficult than thievery; one misstep, and Lu Zixun could find himself reporting to the King of Hell.

If only Sky Splitting weren’t on cooldown, a look of regret appeared on Lu Zixun’s face.

...

As the kerosene lamps responsible for illumination on the streets were extinguished, Ribel City too embraced the first light of dawn.

Lu Zixun also awoke from his sleep, looking around the medieval buildings in confusion.

After a while, Lu Zixun came back to his senses from his groggy state.

Remembering where he was, Lu Zixun looked up at the sun hanging high in the sky, feeling not warmth in his heart but an even deeper chill.

Such ability, Crimson Land had no one who could achieve it, perhaps the Trial Tower could?

But Lu Zixun did not believe that the Trial Tower could oppose the Divine, given that it was only an artificial construct, after all.

Licking his paw and rubbing his face, Lu Zixun pondered his movements for the day.

...

At that moment, a noble, adorned in luxurious clothing, holding a cane in his right hand, and wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, appeared at the entrance of the Housekeeper Service Association.

"Good day, sir. May I help you with something?"

Donning the Mask of the Shape-Shifting Monster and assuming the guise of Geng Xiyuan, Lu Zixun entered the building with an air of nobility.

John Gushill, who had spent a long time at the Housekeeper Service Association, could naturally tell that the noble gentleman who had just walked in was not a simple character.

Hm...

Judging from the appearance, this set of clothes must have been recently purchased.

However, it is also possible that they were stored at home and only worn once.

The gold encircling the cane alone is worth fifteen Bell coins.

Adding to that the gentleman’s pocket watch and gold-rimmed glasses, this entire outfit wouldn’t go for less than fifty Bell coins.

He was a true noble, and a flash of envy passed through Gushill’s eyes.

Then, Gushill appeared before Lu Zixun with a smiling face, providing a very professional introduction, "Sir, welcome to the Housekeeper Service Association. Please follow me."

Lu Zixun gave a slight nod, and without uttering a word, maintained the persona of a haughty noble.

He followed behind Gushill with steps that were leisurely yet elegant.

"Sir, may I have the honor of learning your esteemed name?"

After asking whether Lu Zixun preferred tea or coffee, Gushill inquired softly.

Since the honorific was requested, he decided to use it, which made Lu Zixun somewhat break character.

The corners of his mouth turned up slightly, "You may call me Mengyun Zixun."

"Mr. Zixun, the Housekeeper Service Association shines brighter because of your presence."

After making a gesture of praises to the Goddess, Gushill maintained his professional smile, "How may I assist you?"

"I’ve just arrived in Ribel City and would like to purchase a manor here. Of course, you must understand that I do not have the time to manage it personally."

Lu Zixun smiled, "So, there’s a lot you can help me with."

Understanding Lu Zixun’s intentions, Gushill’s smile became three degrees more genuine, "Of course, that is what I am here for. It so happens that the Housekeeper Service Association has several competent housekeepers available for hire. You only need to pay them three to six Rebel Coins a year, and they can serve you for a full year."

He pulled out a pouch filled with Rebel Coins from his chest.

Lu Zixun shrugged, "I don’t want to waste too much time choosing a housekeeper, as well as dealing with a series of servant issues later on..."

"I understand."

Gushill nodded slightly, his smile becoming exceptionally sincere, "Mr. Zixun, I recommend William Bell as a housekeeper. He once served as a Viscount’s butler, responsible for managing three manors, and is an extremely capable housekeeper."

"Then it’s settled."

Nodding, Lu Zixun didn’t want to spend too much time on this matter and pocketed the pouch of money again.

Lu Zixun said, "Now, can you take me to meet him?"

"Of course, it is the Housekeeper Service Association’s privilege to alleviate your concerns."

Rising and bowing to Lu Zixun, Gushill walked ahead to lead the way.

The instant he saw William Bell, Lu Zixun’s eyes brightened.

This person fit all of his expectations for a butler.

Dressed in a simple, rather than stately, black and white tailcoat.

His hair was salt-and-pepper, yet styled elegantly, his hands naturally at his sides, his gaze sharp and spirited.

"It’s him."

Before Gushill could even speak, Lu Zixun made an irrevocable decision,

However, when it came time to sign the contract, Lu Zixun perceived a force known as Rule Power.

After a moment of silence, Lu Zixun still signed the name Mengyun Zixun.

At the final stroke of the character for "Zixun," the Rule Power from the contract entered Lu Zixun’s body like a silken thread.

"Mr. Zixun, William Bell at your service."

Having successfully acquired a seemingly impressive butler, Lu Zixun tilted his chin upward slightly, "If I may be so bold to ask, why did you not continue as the Viscount’s butler?"

"Because the world changes too quickly, that gentleman went bankrupt," came the casually spoken voice.

Lu Zixun did not interrupt, but listened with a smile instead.
