Third day in the institute.
George still wasn't used to this artificial sun. He woke up and prepared the breakfast. Some meat and fruits for the du couteau. This time he didn't had to wake them. They had a day off and each of them planned their day. Cassiopea would meet with her friends, Katarina had a "friend" to see and Talon had something REALLY important to do.
When they came down, they all had a smirk on their faces. George could easily guess what they would do.
"George, what are you going to do today?"
Cassiopea still felt a bit bad to let George alone, especially when they were the one to ask him to come here. George smiled, his eyes closed. It made him look like a gentle old man. A trick he learned to use to appease people.
"Do not worry ma chère, I recently heard of a big library and wish to spent the day here."
Somehow satisfied, she nodded and resumed her breakfast. Both Katarina and Talon had grin on their face. George hummed. After the loss of his master, they were quite depressed. Seeing them like that made him happy. When they finished their breakfast, they left. George followed them to the door and bid them farewell.
"Now then, I should prepare myself."
He went in, cleaned the kitchen and prepared himself some tea and something to eat. As the butler he was, he prepared more in case he would meet someone. After making sure everything was ok, he left, closing his door behind him.
He wasn't sure where to go exactly. Karma told him the basic direction of the library but the building was way too big for him. He could search for it alone but seeing that he was here as a simple butler and not an assassin he didn't want to waste time. While he walked, he searched for a summoner to guide him. After a few minutes, he found one.
"Pardonnez moi, could you please tell me where I could find the library."
The man had a robe horned with gold and diamond. He took his hood off and looked at George.
"Ho?! Are you a new champions? I never saw you here and god now I know a lot of people."
George realized his mistake and bowed to the man, his right hand on top of his heart.
"Such mistake... I'm George blacksteel, butler of the Du Couteau household. I ask for you pardon for my behavior."
The man looked troubled. Having such a gentleman ask for his forgiveness made him uneasy. Mostly because he didn't have anything to ask ask forgiveness about.
"Ha... don't worry, I'm the high summoner Shadou Triforce, or Shad if you prefer. Member of the high council of the institute."
George stood up. And thanked him.
"So, can you help me find it?"
"Sure, come with me. I was going there too. One of my friends, the summoner Davda told me about a new author I quite liked."
"Summoner Davda? Isn't he the first noxian summoner?"
"Indeed, he is the one supervising the noxian summoners."
The two walked while charing to the library. They were about to enter it when a young woman came. She murmured something to shad and went away.
"Ha... look like I have a meeting, you'll have to go alone. Sorry."
As he said so, the young man disappeared.
"What a nice young man."
George entered alone. This library was interesting to say the least. The place had was more like a big garden with book shelf laid there and there. He saw what looked like a giant with a dog head and nodded to him. The giant returned the gesture. He searched for the part about cooking and found it thank to the sign. He sat on a bench near a fountain and began to read it.
The place was really like a garden, a ceiling made of glass, a ground made of grasses and place to read everywhere. The place itself was big. How could it be so big inside and so small outside? Magic.
As he read, a woman sat in front of him. He kept reading. He wasn't going to bother someone that came reading. What he was reading was a traditional demacian dish he wished to make for the du couteau. It was called "croissant au beurre". A pastry made for breakfast. While he was trying to see how to make it and what ingredients were needed, he heard the woman that sat in front of him cough to catch his attention.
The young woman had a purple skin and dark eyes but more importantly, two bat wings. Anyone would be scared in this situation but George smiled.
"Miss Morgana, it has been longtemps. How are you?"
She smiled.
"Fine as you may see. How are you George, it has been two years if I remember well and I do."
"indeed. I'm Fine. So, how can I help you?"
At this comment she frowned.
"Why do you think I would ask you something?"
"Won't you ?"
At this she smiled again.
"Yes, in fact I need your help. I'm currently running a Café but today, my waiter can't come and since I saw you here..."
George closed his book and put it back on it shelf. He took his bag and took Morgana hand to help her stand up.
"How could I say no to such beautiful lady."
She snapped her finger and the two of them got teleported in her Café. Without waiting, she ended him his uniform and told him about what he had to do. Apparently, one couldn't just come without his reservation and he had to receive the customer and guide them to their table.
She gave him something to eat and then, she opened. George waited with his waiter outfit in the corridor that led to the dining room. With him, the list of invited guest. The first customer came.
"A reservation for King tryndamer and Queen ash."
George checked his list and after seeing their name led them to their table. He handed them their menu and went back to the entrance. The rest of the opening hours went that way. As he was about to close the door, he heard a voice he knew yell.
"WAIT!"
He let the door open. He checked his list and smiled when he read the name of the missing couple. Katarina and Darius were panting. They almost forgot about the reservation. They spent their morning cuddling and training.
When she lifted her head up, she gasped.
"George? what are you doing her?"
She was blushing like crazy. While almost everyone in the institute knew about her relationship with Darius, she didn't tell anything to George. She somehow feared his reaction.
He smiled and showed her her table.
"Please go this way. Sir Darius could you please sign this?"
Katarina went ahead while Darius stood here, waiting for the paper he had to sign. George faced him and released his blood lust to him. It wasn't as strong as his one but still it made him take a step back. The smile he kept on his face was even more scary.
"Sir Darius, while I do know of your seriousness I'm warning you. If you ever were to hurt Miss katarina, you wont be able to sleep at night. If everything is clear you should join her. It's bad for a man to make his Petite amie wait alone.
Darius nodded and joined katarina.
When all the customer left, the sun was already going down. Morgana gave him some pastry and thanked his left. He then left for the manor. When he entered, he found Cassiopea speaking with Leblanc. Since she got cursed she got close to her. Not that it bothered Gorge.
Talon came back and went to his room, telling George he wouldn't eat. An eagle feather was stuck on his cloack. Katarina came back two hours later, she was smiling but had a scary aura.
"Uncle, what did you tell him?"
George titled his head. Cassiopea turned her attention to them as did Leblanc.
"What happened sisssster?"
Katarina glared at George and spoke.
"I met with him at Morgana Cafe, he was helping her. I was having a date with darius but after they met, darius talked with uncle, he acted strangely. He got more gentle and scared."
Cassiopea and Leblanc giggled. It was as expected. George was a bit overprotective.
"I only told him to take care of you katie, rien de plus."
She frowned but let it at that, seeing that she couldn't get anything from him. Lebland ate with the sisters and left a few hours after.
Another nice day.
