When she raised her blade, that is her first mistake and when she attacks me, that is her second mistake. I also bring my dagger out but in terms of speed, Cayden is in advantage. Cayden was already in her back and his dagger is ready to slice her throat while I freeze her feet. It is a game over for her.
"Please, let go of your blade or else I am force to slit your neck. You are already in disadvantage miss, so please don't go further. I don't want to hurt you nor I want you to hurt her." Cayden speaks in a very calm manner.
"But that bitch started it first!" she screamed in anger.
"Me? Started it? No. You provoke me first by calling me a maid and you insulted me twice." I justified my self. I am still calm though while drinking my glass of water.
"But you shouldn't insult me by saying what you said!" She reasoned out.
"Huh! You started the insulting from the very beginning while we are not even bothering you. I don't even know you." I stand up. "You are saying that you can insult me but I can't insult you. Do you think that I will just sit still while you are stepping on me? Bitch. Who do you think you are? Are you perhaps a noble in your previous kingdom? Or are you a royal?" I asked.
"How dare you? I am a daughter of a duke in the Elfen kingdom." She said.
"Oh, are you? But what a duke's daughter doing here? Are you perhaps a cast away now? It means what I said earlier is probably true and you standing in front of me justified that statement earlier. So, what I said isn't an insult but the truth and yet you are about to kill a bystander. Whom you insulted twice today." I said. Wait. Am I speaking ill towards myself?
"You are just a commoner! How dare you insult a duke's daughter?"
"Commoner or noble, is nothing to me. But if you were a princess, then I might kneel for you and ask for forgiveness. It means that I don't care whether you are a duke's daughter." I showed my hands on her. "Do you see this pair of hands? These hands killed numbers of nobles and those nobles committed heinous crime. So, it means that killing you is just a number adding to the piles of those bodies I disposed." I warned her.
"She's telling the truth miss, please stop now." Cayden supported my words.
"If you weren't listening before, listen to him now. It might save your petty life. I don't care whether your blood will dirty this floor. You are a half-blood; it means you are not bound with human law. So, killing you will not do me harm. They might revoke my adventurer's rank but I don't care since I can earn it back. But you, you cannot even see the sun the next day. I am warning you. This is your last chance." I warned her.
I glared at her. It is time for her to shut those stupid mouth of hers. I wouldn't think twice of killing her if she says one word of nonsense again. I am not joking anymore. I really don't care whether she dies in front of these people.
She brings her dagger down and I released her from being petrified. She walks away from the inn and I just continued my food. Cayden, did the same way and we acted like nothing happen.
The next day, Cayden and I are looking for some mission to do. We decided to take the A-class mission since there is no more S-class mission. When we are about to leave, a girl stopped us from living and she introduced herself as a member of The Golden State. She told us that their leader wanted to meet us. We went to the tavern and we found them waiting there. They introduced themselves. They seem friendly but I don't trust people easily.
"We witness happened at the inn last night, you are so brave to stand your feet to a noble's daughter and also a half-blood." The leader of the golden state said. His name is Reiner.
"Yes… no one has ever done that. This is the first time we witness it. I am also angry to Lucila for being bossy and this is the first time we have seen that she was push to the corner." Mitch said. She is a mage type.
"Lucila?" I asked.
"OH, that is that half-blood elf's name. She is indeed a duke's daughter in the Elfen's Kingdom and she is known for being a tyrant." Vena said. She is an augmenter type. Her body is not as normal as normal girl has. She has muscles that is about to explode from her shirt.
"Tyrant you say. She is indeed a tyrant. That woman is scary. Having a duke's family in her back and an elf's blood. She is sure born to be a tyrant." Vito said. He is the younger brother of Vena; he is a warrior type like Reiner. "You put her in her place last night." He continued.
"She was getting in my nerves and she indeed insulted me twice." I said.
"But you know, you should be careful, Lucila is known for hiring bandits to ambush people. Despite of being an adventurer she is also born with a noble status; she is known to be taking handsome men to be her lover. Austin was her target but I guess she lock down her new target." Vena said and she looked at Cayden.
Austin is the quiet among their group and Reiner introduced him as their ace since he is a warrior yet he is also good at controlling mana. He is just like Cayden. The golden state are higher ranking adventurers. Reiner, Austin, Mitch and Vena are S-rank adventurer while Vito is an A-rank.
Austin being handsome, made him the target of Lucila the bitchy half-blood elf. That's why she is here in this town because the golden state is around. Unfortunately, we are also here and her seeing Cayden made her change her mind. Is Cayden that handsome? I looked at Cayden and went nearer to him and held his face to examine him. Cayden's face suddenly turned red. He took my hands out of his face.
"Stop it Silvy. What you are doing is weird." He said with irritated face.
"I'm just looking at something; I don't get it. Why girls are finding you handsome and I am being put into this kind of position? Are you really that handsome?" I asked forwardly.
"I don't know? How should I know?" Cayden said pretending not to be flustered from what I've done earlier.
"No way, don't you know what both of you look like?" Mitch asked. I wonder.
"You see, Cayden appears to be handsome and Silvy appears having a normal beauty." Reiner said.
"No Reiner, you are wrong, both of Silvy and Cayden are using concealing spell that hides their real faces. I don't know why is their reason but Silvy is so beautiful and Cayden is even more stunning compared to the face he has now. If they both lifted the concealing spell, people will not even dare to stand next to them. Despite both of them are S-rank adventurers. Silvy is a mage while Cayden is just like Austin." Mitch elaborated the exact information.
"How did you know that we are using a concealing spell? Even other S-rank adventurers doesn't know about that." I asked.
"You see, Mitch is also a half-blood pixie and she can identify any concealing magic." Vena explained.
"Interesting, can you show us your real face?" Vito asked.
"No, however, if you are going to pay us twenty gold-coins then we might." I said.
"Oh, come one… can you just do it for free?" Vito protested.
"Well, twenty-gold coins is a lot but we can spare some right?" Reiner said.
Reiner gave us twenty-gold coins and we showed them our real appearance. Just showing our appearance can earn us money.
"Now, I see why Mitch wanted to see the both of you. You are both looking stunning. I support your decision to hide your appearances because if you showed it to public maybe hundreds of Lucila will chase after the both of you." Vena said.
"That's scary. It will be a nightmare." Mitch shivered.
"Well, if I can have a chance to kill hundreds of her then that is satisfying." I answered.
"Don't you ever think of meeting that creepy woman." Cayden said.
"Relax, I won't sell you out. We can have a chance to kill over and over that kind of woman." I answered.
The golden state group suddenly feel the chill while listening to me. Well, they are good nature citizen in the first place.
Reiner suddenly change the topic.
"Well, anyway, we are going to a mission. It is an S-class mission. We would like to invite the both of you to join our team. If that is alright with you." He said.
"I'm sorry but we already in a team. We are not travelling in group but we aid each other in times of need. Besides we don't like travelling in groups." I declined.
"Oh, that's sad. So, it means that you are in an independent group. What is the name of you team?" Vena asked.
"I forgot." I answered.
"What?" Reiner asked.
"Sorry, Silvy really doesn't like remembering things. Black Queen is the name of our team." Cayden said.
