Chapter 8: Work is tiring
"Achoo." Ram sneezed to break the silence
**********************************************************************************
We see Subaru trying on uniforms as he is now going to work at Roswaal's Mansion
"That isn't quite right... Wasn't there anything else that fits you Subaru?" Emilia asked
"Oddly, some of the girls stuff fits me, but..." Subaru said as the sleeve on his arm is too long for him
"Our deepest apologies, sir. I mean, Subaru." Rem said
"You look quite ridiculous sir. I mean, Barusu." Ram said
"Um, Nee-sama, did you just turn my name into a blinding curse." Subaru asked
"Rem, looking at Barusu's ridiculous appearance, do you notice anything?" Ram asked
'She just ignored me!' Subaru thought
"His shoulders are shaped funny, his legs are short, and his eyes are scary." Rem replied
"I can;t do anything about those things!" Subaru said
"We cannot allow you to work here in such shady-looking attire. People would question Lord Roswaal's dignity. let us alter the jacket at least. Rem, if you please." Ram said
"All right, i have to study for the royal selection. Good luck with your work too, Subaru." Emilia said
"yep, leave it to me Emilia." Subaru said
"I shall take your measurements. Stand still and keep your back straight." rem said while stretching a tape measurer. She puts it behind Subaru and he started to move
"Please refrain from moving." Rem said
"Sorry about that." Subaru said
***************************************************************************************
We see Ram showing Subaru all the rooms
"This is the VIP room. This is the bathing room. This is the kitchen. And this is the lavatory." Ram said as he shows all the rooms to Subaru
"In a mansion like this, the restroom must be huge." Subaru said as he opens the door and suddenly he sees Beatrice on a bed with puck on her
"You're so great, Bubby! your fur is the best--" Beatrice was stopped as she sees Subaru opening the door
"Don't worry. I Wont tell soul--" Subaru was stopped when he was knocked away by Beatrice
"Hey! Let me finish!" Subaru yelled and ran back again to the door but now, after opening it, he sees it now as the toilet room
"That was Miss Beatrice's Door Crossing." Ram said
"So it's a spell that can connect any door in the mansion to her room?" Subaru asked
"Once Miss Beatrice has eliminated her presence, there is no way to find her without trying every door in the mansion." Ram said. Subaru sees another door and went to open it after opening it, he sees Beatrice's room one again
"That was impressive, Subaru..." Puck said
"You picked the right door again?!" Beatrice asked angrily
"What did i tell you, I'm real good at guessing." Subaru said
"I don't care what you're saying!" Beatrice yelled
"Who are you expose to be, Ros-chii's sister?" Subaru asked
"I'd never want to be his sister, i suppose! Hmph!" Beatrice pouted
"Betty is the librarian who oversees the Roswaal mansion's forbidden library." Puck said
"Lord Roswaal is the greatest magic user in the Kingdom. He has many books that must not be seen by others. Miss Beatrice is contracted to protect them." Ram said
"If you get it now, then go away." Beatrice said and now closes the door
"This concludes our tour of the mansion. Any questions?" Ram asked
"Nope" Subaru said
"Then if you have no questions, let us get to your actual job. You will help me with my work, Barusu." Ram said as she walked past Subaru
"My work today is caring for the front yard and garden, helping to prepare lunch, polishing the silver, airing the futons, laundry, bathroom cleaning, and the mansion's monthly soot cleaning." Ram said real fast.
********************************************************************************
Afternoon came and Subaru's work has now come to an end
"I'm exhausted..." Subaru uttered as lays himself on his bed. But someone then knocks on his door
"This is Rem. Do you have a moment, Subaru?" Rem asked
"Ya, come in." Subaru said
"Pardon me then." Rem said as she enters the room a cloth on her
"You already finished it?" Subaru asked
"When it is Lord Roswaal's clothing, my priority is to take care. But since this is yours..." Rem uttered
"Did you just imply that you cut corners?" Subaru asked as he wears the suit that now fits himself
"I hate to admit it, but it's perfect. Well? Do i look good?" Subaru asked
"Combined with the rarity of gray clothes, no one in any kind of strange garment could rival you." Rem replied
"Okay! Not a compliment at all!" Subaru said
