The burnished library doors swung wide to let in a burly giant of a man who was stomping his way towards us.He wore the navy-blue waistcoat and a short sleeved version of the white shirt; his muscly biceps and torso stretching out the seams.
I noticed his left arm carried an imprint of the Evadale Knight Order star stamped just above his elbow. His lower half was hidden behind a waist-high ap.r.o.n that had large pockets with tool heads poking out of them.
His spiky blond hair was bleached white along the front tips. There was a silver teardrop scar down his right eye. His blue eyes gave off a glaring expression, especially when was giving Ryoko a serious look.
He stopped before her, looking cranky as h.e.l.l and ready to challenge her to a fight.
"Ryoko, darling. Can I please have my sharpening block back? I need it to sharpen our s.e.xy Captain"s daggers." The not so cranky man spoke with the girlish voice I had ever heard. Even his inflections were over the top effeminate.
"s.e.xy Captain." I chuckled. Surely, he wasn"t referring to Trix.

Ryoko laughed. "Ryuu here is a Trix fan."
Ryuu sighed dramatically and daintily relieved the block from Ryoko.
"The Captain is my Sweetie." He dreamily confirmed the fact as he hugged the block.
"Ryuu. Is it time?" Saku cordially addressed the man, thinking nothing of the friendly peck to each cheek the burly man gave him.
"Aah Yes. Monsieur Smithsonian also asked me to fetch you and..."
"Well, that"s an unexpected contrast." I mumbled to Death.
I gulped when I realised Ryuu"s glaring eyes were pointed my way. His expression lifted with delightful surprise.
"Oh my." He blushed and turned away, hurrying down the library for a quick exit.
"Huh?" I frowned with a weird look on my face.
"That was Ensign Ryuu. My cousin. Trix"s number one fan. This mansion"s maintenance man and grounds keeper." Ryoko indirectly introduced me to the man who was no longer in the room with us. "See I told you he didn"t disappear."
"Okay."
Saku prompted us out of the library. We followed his lead down the levels to the ground floor. We took a side door near the front entrance.
