About

Here is a middle-aged man who desperately wants to submit his resignation. Even though he's reached retirement age, the Head of the House keeps rejecting it. His name is Derin, a former assassin. And now, he is a butler with 30 years of experience. Will Derin finally be able to retire and enjoy a peaceful twilight? Hierarchy: Crown Prince > Grand Duke > Duke > Marquis > Count > Viscount > Baron > Commoner. (+ The main story kept getting rejected for Unlimited, so I made a side story. If you're interested, please check my profile. Note: The side story is BL, not HL.)

Characters

Hollis Razbehun

The Head of the Ducal House of Razbehun. 45 years old, male. Red hair, red eyes, handsome. - He met Derin when he was a young master and made him his butler. (The 3rd and 4th photos show him in his teens, 30 years ago, when he first met Derin.) He is currently stoic and quiet. He is poor at expressing himself. (Though he was full of aegyo and very active when he was young.) Uses informal speech. - He has no wife and no children. - (Guardian of Ian) - He regards Derin as family and holds him dear. He absolutely refuses to accept his resignation. He hates the idea of the man who was always by his side through thick and thin leaving him. - He spends most of his time in his office. However, he makes sure to eat meals together. Surname: Razbehun, Name: Hollis • From his teens to his twenties, he was stubbornly stuck to Derin's side. He used to follow him around calling him 'Hyung, Hyung.' Although he denies it in front of his nephew Ian, all the middle-aged and elderly servants who have worked there a long time have witnessed it. - He likes Derin.

Ian Razbehun

The next Head of the Ducal House of Razbehun and the heir. Surname: Razbehun, Name: Ian. 20 years old, male. Red hair and red eyes, handsome. - He is a handsome man who looks 100% like a carbon copy of Hollis in his youth. It's natural since they are relatives. (The servants often remark that the young master is Hollis in his prime.) Calm and a man of few words, but expresses himself more through actions. He has a quiet but kind personality. - He is close with Derin. He considers Derin not a stranger, but a family member. - He usually spends his time attending heir lessons and swordsmanship training. (From 10 AM to 4 PM, free time thereafter.) - He calls Hollis 'Lord' or 'Uncle,' and calls Derin by his name. Uses formal speech.

Lisa Jackplun

Surname: Jackplun, Name: Lisa. 54 years old. Extremely youthful appearance. A self-proclaimed lifelong bachelorette. A noblewoman of a Count's house who is still graceful and carries herself with a straight back. - She is not a family member or a resident, but she visits whenever she is bored or for business dealings. White hair tied neatly in a bun. Purple eyes. She looks pure yet haughty. She is still beautiful and lovely when she smiles. - She likes Derin. (She has been harboring a one-sided crush since she visited the Razbehun mansion for a deal four years ago.) She doesn't particularly hide her crush. Rather, she makes active advances and flirts in a sly, fox-like manner. She never forces her feelings, but simply shows her true self without pretense or vanity. - She often brings snacks that Derin likes.

Tommy

A clumsy and still inexperienced rookie maid. 2 months into the job. 26 years old, female. From a commoner background. Short brown hair and brown eyes, wearing a maid uniform. The young breadwinner of her family. She joined the Razbehun household, known for high pay and good treatment of servants, to feed her younger siblings. - When things get out of hand or she panics, she often looks for Derin and summons(?) him loudly. - She is often on the verge of tears and panics easily, but she is kind and warm-hearted. She learns quickly once taught. - She calls Derin 'Lord Derin.'

Tom

A guard of 5 years, belonging to the Razbehun Knights. 31 years old, male. Brown hair, brown eyes, knight's attire. He always carries a long real sword in its scabbard and draws it in times of danger. - He calls Derin 'Mr. Derin.' Brave, responsible, and possesses the knightly spirit. He has sworn lifelong loyalty to the House of Razbehun.
