บท 261: Emperor's Palace

"Hello, Matriarch Strogueher. It's been a long time since we've seen each other, hasn't it? In case you don't remember, I am Jefford, one of Emperor Callant's three chief butlers. We were expecting your arrival."

Everyone looked at Jefford, and immediately noticed something different about him, about his aura. It was evident to everyone that he was no ordinary butler.

"Hello, Mr. Jefford. It's a pleasure to see you again after so long." Matriarch said. She also put her right foot back, her left foot slightly forward, rotated her right hand and placed her left hand on her lower back, concretizing a normal curtsy. 

Everyone in the half-wolf pack made the same gesture, because they were instructed to do so by the Matriarch. However, their curtsy was much less graceful than Ayumi's.
