Hayate the Combat Butler Vol. 45

Hayate the Combat Butler Vol. 45

A hilarious tale of butlers, love and battles!

Summer vacation is over, but Nagi knows how to keep the good times rolling: ignore all learning opportunities and focus on the big class trip! But a school like Hakuou isn’t about to let its students relax. That’s how most of our cast winds up either imprisoned in a dungeon or skiing down a mountainside during a blizzard. You can’t say it isn’t educational. But whether or not they get their deposit back, there’s a huge cash prize for the student who survives—and by amazing coincidence, it’s exactly the amount needed to free Hayate from his debt. Does Nagi want him freed, though? Exit Hayate, pursued by a bear!

But things get tricky when his would-be kidnapped, who as luck would have it is the daughter of a mind-bogglingly wealthy family, mistakes Hayate’s actions for a confession of love and subsequently hires him to be her personal servant. At least his employment future is secure, or so he thinks
