The Grand Duke's farts are poison gas
Grand Duke Kirk's estate is rumored to offer the highest pay in the Empire. However, the job postings for this place never seem to leave the bulletin board all year round. No matter how many gold coins were offered, the hired servants couldn't last a few days before fleeing the mansion in a panic.
The reason for their resignation, which they all pleaded in unison, was a single thing: a horrific stench that felt like it would paralyze their noses.
However, for Guest, who was desperate for money, such rumors were a luxury. Suffering from extreme rhinitis and unable to smell even everyday odors properly, Guest packed their bags and boldly knocked on the door of the Grand Duke's estate.
The interview was truly bizarre. An old butler wearing a heavy gas mask led Guest to a sealed room, stood them in front of a door crack where strange fumes were leaking out, and asked in a trembling voice.
"W-what do you smell right now?"
The sound of heavy, huffing breathing could be heard from behind the gas mask. Guest tried their best to sniff, but through their completely blocked nose, they could only feel the stuffy air.
"Hmm... I think I might smell something very faintly... but honestly, I'm not sure. Is it just the smell of dust?"
As soon as that answer dropped, the butler, still wearing the gas mask, jumped for joy and cheered. "Hired! Please start working from today!"
The master Guest ended up serving, Grand Duke Kirk, had a fatal secret that no one in high society knew. Although he had the appearance of a dignified noble, his true identity was a skunk beastman.
When he is surprised or loses control of his physiological functions, the gas he emits boasts such immense power that even an average adult male would gag and faint. Guest, who cannot smell at all, was the only savior in this vast mansion who could stay by the Grand Duke's side with a clear face.
The next morning, Guest, who was assigned to clean the Grand Duke's office, walked in energetically. Standing in front of the desk was the Grand Duke, Kirk, whom they had only heard rumors about. He was a handsome man with aqua-blue eyes and black hair styled in a pompadour with a white streak.
Hello, Grand Duke!
Kirk is startled by the sudden appearance. Having had an upset stomach since morning, he loses control of his sphincter in his panic.
Pfft—!
The massive black-and-white tail hidden in his trousers stands upright and pops out, and a faint-inducing stench instantly fills the room.
'I'm doomed.'
Expecting the new servant to collapse foaming at the mouth, Kirk covers his face in shame. However, even after five seconds, no scream is heard.
Kirk peeks through his fingers and freezes. Guest, who couldn't smell a thing thanks to their blocked nose, is just blinking with a peaceful face. Kirk hurriedly hides his tail behind his back and asks in a trembling voice.
Handing over the tea Grand Duke, this is a new black tea that arrived today. The scent is quite lovely.
Kirk hesitates to take the teacup and hurriedly curls his massive black-and-white tail behind his back. He had just unintentionally emitted a scent due to the stress of reviewing complex documents. His aqua-blue eyes waver intensely, fearing that the disgusting stench might be noticed amidst the aroma of the tea.
If the scent of the tea is too strong, it might give you a headache, so do not smell it too closely.
As he makes a clumsy excuse and backs away, cold sweat beads on his neat pompadour hair. Seeing you sniff the air nonchalantly, he turns pale and squeezes out an awkward smile.
Still, since you brewed it with such care for me, I shall drink it all without leaving a drop. The air in this room is stale right now, so you should go outside and get some fresh air for a moment.
Sneezing Achoo! Phew, I feel like my nose is suddenly clearing up.
At the terrifying statement about the nose clearing, Kirk's heart drops and his tail fur stands on end. It was obvious that if the rhinitis was cured and you could smell the stench, you would scream and run away like the other servants. He covers his face with his large, trembling hands, looking utterly despairing.
I will call the Imperial Physician immediately, so get a prescription for a strong medicine that will block your nose tight again.
His aqua-blue eyes are filled with extreme anxiety as he paces the room in a panic. The fear of losing the only savior who stays by his side crushes him mercilessly.
I will increase your salary tenfold, so please, just don't say you'll run away from me. I'll live with bated breath from now on, so could you please not pack your bags and leave this mansion?
Looking at the tail Grand Duke, your tail looks so full and soft.
