Sacrifice: Time of Mine

Chapter 110: Ninja Time

"Ugh..." Master Numui felt depressed so it was Lady Shamira who continued.

"Then... it is settled. You will spy on our son, Kalin, and give us every information in his daily life and even in his private quarters for just a month. I hope you get anything from it."

Avion nodded.

'So, I'm like a ninja.' he felt excited.

"And lastly," Lady Shamira thought she could just push this, "If it's emergency, could you please help him? Only in the worst-case scenarios. If he would get beaten, let him get beaten. But if it concerns his life or something that may cripple him, please do act on it."

'Ninja guardian.'

.....

Their talk ended. Avion did not know that he skipped a lot of hard work due to nonsensical situations. Also, this is because of the misunderstanding that he is a Rank Bih Elementalists.

If they knew that he has no rank then they would've made everything hard for him.

But strength matters. Even if he is not actually Rank Bih, he had already proven himself in the battle against Anzteran Elementalists.

"So this is where you will live in." Jamina said in an aloof manner.

"Oh..." Avion looked around and saw a room with a bed, closet, and a desk. It was truly wonderful. 

The expressionless Relle suddenly made a delighted face.

A nerve popped out of Jamina's forehead, 'So you got your own room now, huh. Aren't you lucky!?' but soon she sighed as she felt her head hurt.

'This is stressful.'

"What a good room." Avion muttered.

'You're stressful.'

He then turned to Jamina and widely smiled. His jagged yellowish teeth could be seen but a sincere smile was made towards the unsuspecting maid.

"This is great, thank you."

'.....'

"Tsk!" Jamina didn't say anything before leaving him.

"Hm?" Avion tilted his head in confusion, 'Maybe that's her personality...' he slowly shook his head, not judging her.

Avion's standard of people was very low. The first people he met wanted to capture him. One killed him straight away, then the second one followed, and he felt "betrayed" by one princess, her name was not important.

Even if Jamina's attitude was unpleasant, it was multiple times better if compared to "specific" other people.

Don't forget that the first time he met Mettany, she broke his bones and raptured his organs. However, in the end, she was very sweet and kind.

To Avion at least... or in his perspective.

So he doesn't value the first impressions. At first, they may be smiling at you but they might actually be thinking of stabbing you. Or that they may ignore you but it must be because they're shy or something.

You never know.

Avion thought like that and now, he placed his bag down and organized his things.

"Woah, a closet."

"Woah, a desk."

"Woah, a bed."

"Woah..."

Outside, Jamina was stomping her feet as she walked outside,

"What a devilish man! Does he think he can fool me with his smile? Hah! Does he think his teeth are clean? Good thing you do not have bad breath or bad smell or I may not even go near you!..."

She shouted complained and complained.

Being a maid, there are too few things to put her mind to. She cleans, guards, and service her masters. That was it.

It could be said that Relle's arrival was already a big matter.

After some time...

"So is that Relle okay now?" her friend asked her.

'If only you know why he is here.' Jamina thought but somehow, she said, "He's fine, he got back in his room."

"I heard he's ugly, how ugly is he?" 

"Super!"

"Eh? For you to say super. He must be pretty disgusting-looking or you're just rude as hell."

.....

Time passed and Avion received a letter from the master. It contains their knowledge about Kalin and his usual schedule. His characteristics, routine, and so on.

In the end, it said, [You should familiarize yourself in the mansion first and the usual place Kalin goes.]

That's it. However, Avion quickly knew what they meant.

"I need to familiarize myself on paths and routes I can escape to and the places I could hide. Hehe..."

"Ninja time."

Avion disappeared but appeared in the next second in the same place.

"I should lock the door and the window first."

Far from the guild, on the other side of the capital. This is where most of the nobles' lands and properties with some grand establishments for successful commoners were placed.

Those commoners here may have more money but as long as they don't have a great bloodline, they would be stuck on being a commoner, getting suppressed by other nobles.

Good thing was that this was the Trading-Hills Capital, under the Crown Council. Businesses here are more prioritized and that is why some commoners were able to persevere and not get swallowed or suppressed by other nobles.

And so to not taint the image of the nobles, who had to make businesses with the commoners they can't suppress, they came up with an idea.

Pseudo-nobles.

The rich commoners, or pseudo-nobles, didn't have a problem with this. It is since they have no power against Elementalists in the first place. Also, having a new name makes them higher than those "other" commoners.

In short, this is the area of the nobles. Commoners here are very polite and are in total submission. They are called servants. Nobles mostly don't have a problem with them as long as they continue being loyal and useful.

Currently, Avion was dressed as a "servant" as he traversed the road of nobles. He wore something like a butler would wear but at the same time, it lacked the quality to show his status.

Since he took off his always clothing, he was always uncomfortable. But after some time, he got used to it.

It was not rare to see a servant without their masters. It could be that he was there for an errand. And also, he had a hat on top to mostly hide his unpleasant face.

"There you are." he miraculously found an establishment he wanted to find.
