James (ジェームズ) is the butler of the Furt Family.

Appearance

After the Furt Family’s fall from grace, James now bears a tense expression on his wrinkled face.

Personality

James is a loyal manservant as he has remained in the employ of the Furt Family even after the Emperor had revoked their nobility status.

Background

According to Arche Eeb Rile Furt, James had been the butler to the Furt Family for a long time. While the young mistress Arche is away from home trying to pay off his master's debt, he attempts to prevent the Furt Family from falling further into debt. However, this is easier said than done as Arche's father still refuses to admit he is no longer a noble, believing that he still needs to keep up appearances. Despite the aged old butler's reminders of the family's financial situation, his master has accumulated a debt of 300 gold coins.
