Gēge,

Charles really is a great butler!

Not only can he cook a delicious variety of breakfasts, he took me to buy new clothes and even taught me how to sing.

Then, I went to karaoke with my classmates in my new clothes, and everyone said that my clothes looked nice and that I sang well!

I must be becoming more and more like a normal boy now, right?

Legend of a Hero Chapter 1: Among the Ordinary, an Extraordinary Hero—translated by dahlys

Ring…ring…ring…

Hello? Is that you, Gēge? Have you finished work? Are you free to talk on the phone right now?

You know, I’ve found a butler who is just like Kyle-gē! What? He’s a secretary…?

Is a secretary different from a butler? It’s about the same? Then that’s okay.

Gēge! You know, my butler’s name is Charles Endelis, and he’s a vampire.

Why did I hire him? Because he’s interesting! He’s a vampire that sucks human blood, but he’s also a butler who serves humans… He’s just like me!

Just like me, who is Ah Ye and Dark Sun at the same time!

No Hero V2Prologue: Prologue

No Hero Volume 2: The Hero Grim Reaper

Original novel in Chinese by: 御 我 (Yu Wo)

Prologue — translated by dahlys

We were on the street. Although it was nighttime, the moon was so bright it was as if it were a giant light bulb in the sky illuminating the entire world.

I wish it were a little darker.

In the sky, the thunder of the helicopter’s propellers gradually faded away. The crowd formed circle after circle around us, but no one made a single sound. They only stared silently.

I wish it were a little noisier.

The young master stood right in front of me, wearing Dark Sun’s usual outfit. He carried the Death Scythe in his hands, whereas I was completely unarmed. My arms were spread out wide as I stood facing the young master, obstructing his path.

However, this was wrong. I could stand in front of the young master and take care of his affairs, or I could stand behind him silently and wait for his next command. What I should not do is face the young master and… confront him.

The silver visor hid the young master’s face so I could not see how he felt about this situation at all. Regarding this, I could only smile bitterly for a moment. I could not talk because there were simply too many humans around us.

The young master did not say anything, but I knew that he was looking at me. Suddenly, however, he tilted his head slightly and looked at the person behind me instead. Through all this, he remained silent… If only the young master could scold me out loud, that would be great.

But perhaps not as great as I am imagining.

I smiled bitterly again. Even if the young master scolded me, I still could not choose to move aside. Therefore, I might actually feel worse, although I would be hard-pressed to imagine what other situation could possibly make me any more miserable than the one I was in right now.

If I had a choice, I would definitely choose to step aside immediately. However, if I could have chosen in the first place, perhaps I would not even choose to stand here and confront the young master?

I really do not wish to stand here.

I did not have a choice. Similarly, the young master also did not have a choice, since everyone in the entire world was watching him swing his scythe.

The young master is a hero, while, right now, I am a vampire that endangers humans.

Diary of a Butler Chapter 10: No Hero—translated by dahlys

Dear Father,

My master is a hero. However, I finally understand your admonishment. No matter what kind of person the young master is, my duty has not changed. In the coming days, I will take good care of the young master and be a dutiful butler. Please do not worry.

I helped the young master to his room. The moment he lay on his bed, he fell asleep. As I covered him with a blanket, I thought about what Mr. An Te Qi had said. He mentioned that the young master would be a little absent-minded in the next few days, and that I should cook a lot of high-calorie food for him and let him do nothing but eat and sleep. After a few days, he would slowly recover.

“Charles!” The young master suddenly woke up.

“Yes?”
