To replicate Grandpa's favorite painting! (1/2)

"Here you go, Young Master. Are these materials enough for your painting?" Victoria smiled widely. She is curious why the young master wants to paint all of the sudden.

"Yes. Thank you, sister Victoria!" Lucas said while staring at the painting materials infront of him.

It took Victoria a few minutes to get these painting materials from the Gray Mansion's storage. They literally have almost everything in this Mansion.

"Then I should get going now Young Master Lucas. I will see your painting later." With that Victoria left Lucas in the Mansion's lounge.

Lucas look around the lounge and notice no one is there except for him. He stood up from the couch he was sitting in and observed the large painting on the wall. That painting is his grandfather's favorite painting.

This villain accidentally broke this painting in the future. His grandfather got so furious at him that he kicked him out of the Gray Mansion to live in another place a bit far from the Mansion. That place is near the School where the Main character studies at. That school will also be the villain's school when he moved to his new place.

But now that he is in possession of the Villain's body he didn't have any plans to ruin this painting. The system probably wants him to receive attention from his family. Not in a way that is damaging his reputation in the family tho.

Lucas guessed this when he received the main quest from the system.

...

Infront of Lucas's room stood the old Master of the Gray Family. It is obvious that he was a very handsome man in his younger days.

With his silky white and black hair neatly brushed back, his well ironed white tuxedo shirt with his black tie, Grey vest and Grey pants he doesn't look like his age.

The old Master took a step forwards using his cane to support him. He glance at the old butler for a second before the butler walk before him and raise his hand to knock on Lucas's door.

Knock knock..

A few seconds went by with no response so the old butler once again raise his hand and knock on the door.

Knock knock..

No response again. The old Master Gray raise one of his eyebrows before walking beside the old butler as he spoke, "Are you sure that kid would be awake at this time? Or maybe the maids are just making false rumors about the kid being able to talk."

"Young Master Lucas is surely awake at this hour and the maids are not lying, sir. May I remind you that I saw him talking, walking, running, and reading with my eyes.. These eyes never lie." The butler replied as politely as possible.

"If that's true. Then would you be ready to lose those eyes if what your saying is a lie, Old butler." The old Master replied with the same polite tone that the old butler used but his was filled with threat.

The old butler shake his head knowing that the old Master threats are not real. The old Master normally likes to joke around like this but most of the times people think he is really threatening them. Perhaps only the old Butler understands the old Master the most as they stayed beside each other their whole life. Even Young Master Gray, the old master's only child can't even understand him better than the old butler.

"I will see if Young Master Lucas is inside then." The old butler place his hand on the door knob before twisting it. He push the door open slowly and entered the room first.

His eyes wondered around the room for a few seconds before he turn around to face the old Master.

"Young Master Lucas doesn't seem to be in his room, Old Master." The old butler spoke.

"Hmm.. Then I shall visit him when he is in his room next time." The old Master replied as he turn to his right.

The old Master made his way out of the hallway to the elevator while the old butler followed behind him. The Gray Family got an elevator ever since the old Master started to have problems when walking. He couldn't stand up for too long and walk for too long or else his legs will give up and make him fall.

The two oldest people in the Gray Mansion entered the elevator. The old butler pressed the third floor button and went back to stand beside the old Master. Then elevator door closed.
