[Week after joining the guild]
as asmodeus got up the next week, he was quite excited, he fed from Mia who visited him the day before and he was able to learn about more of his role as an assassin.
He believed himself to be good despite acquiring the villian titel he found while looking at the status scroll.
He couldn't believe he became a villan, after all the hero's were always talking about how they defeated bad people and that they even killed villan's.
He wanted to talk about it to Mia, but as they were out around town yesterday, he froze up, he didn't know how he was going to say he had become the thing her and the others despised.
He didn't want to lose them, he wanted to be greedy and keep his friends for longer.
But then this idea stiked him, he never was told he couldn't tell them about becoming an assassin, he just swore never to tell about the dark guild and that other mumbo jumbo.
He told her about going to the assassin's guild and joining it, he said it was a secret amongst him and mahiru and she frowned.
But then he clinged to her and told her he wasn't bad and he wasn't going to become bad, he was going to be good and find a loop hole.
It became silent as this happened and he almost cryed just imagining her leaving him, she told him how much she despised evil and he didn't want to lose his friend.
But then after a serious moment she busted out laughing.
He was socked and surprised as this happened.
But then she grabbed his sholders and explained how the assassin's guild might seem bad and full of evil but in truth, the assassin's have always saved the hero's and adventures butts on multiple occasions.
She explained the kingdom too, and how even the kingdom had elite knights as assassin's, it was just how life rolled and there was nothing he had to worry about.
She then proceeded to tease him and slightly bully him for fun as he was just so gullible and amusing.
*****Current Day*****
He was in the woods and he held a photo of a goblin who showed high intelligence, it seemed to be causing a stir in the forest and its made the area dangerous as the animals have been way too aggressive lately.
This area is usually used for low level adventures to doo starter quest and gather herbs, but if the peaceful animals have been attacking the people on here lately, it may cause alot of lives, and thought the adventures guild could care less since if they were killed by peaceful animals they were not worth the guilds resources.
But the family of a dead adventure put out a bounty on the leaders head and went to the ones they believed could avenge their son and bring the head of the bastard who kill their kid.
This was the first mission mahiru gave him and she already had him kill once before so he could get a taste for it, she made him hunt a dire wolf all alone.
She lured it out and used a spell to make it follow obediently, and since it was weak it worked.
After that she led it very far away and she forced him to fight it, he chose to use a bow and she gifted him a few steel arrows which he ended up using 5 to take it down, he ran alot and refused to kill it at first but after it showing it wasn't going to not kill him, he held his breath and shot the arrow finishing it off.
* * * * *
Right now he was waiting in a tree and then he found himself just sitting there for quite a while waiting for someone to come out.
But then he heard movement on the blushes and he hurried and took his bow out drawing the string and aiming a arrow he crafted beforehand at the rustling bush.
But as he was about to let go he saw the head of a man, he put his head back in the bush and asmodeus lowered his weapon as it wasn't the goblin he was looking for.
After losing his weapon he saw the man fully emerge and with him another guy and a girl came out with him.
The guy he saw first had a rusted knife with single leather chest peice, it was of squalid quality and it was worst then poor but better than nothing, at most it could stop a stone arrow from fully going in him.
The other guy was meaty, he was fat but fit, it was as if was a shield warrior, or Dex guy, he had a wooden club and he wore a fine leather peice, just a bit better than poor quality, also he had boots...he was a tank class fighter.
Last was that girl and she wore no armor at all, and she had a dagger, it seemed to be in good condition and it looked as if from her body figure that she was a martial artist.
Asmodeus looked at them some more but then they started squabbling with eachother as one steped on the others foot.
They were bickering like fools and asmodeus found it quite amusing, but then before he knew it he saw a goblin sneaking up on the tank guy.
It had a rusted dagger in hand it was creeping up on him.
Asmodeus watched as it was prepared to assassinate the tank and since he wasn't asmodeus target he desided not to interfere.
After all he would of been scolded by mahiru if he did.
The goblin got behind the tank and it raised it dagger, it the jumoed in the air and the girl noticed it.
"Fodel behind you!!!" she yelled and he quickly turned his head to see a little dark green goblin with a slobbering expression in the air with its rusted dagger at him.
But then as his eyes opened wide and the blade shined off of his eyes. . .the blade lodged in his sholder.
"gahhhhr!" he yelled out as the goblin was on him and failed to kill him but got his sholder, it dug the dagger deeper but then as the others were in shock by the sight of his blood fling into the air.
A single arrow hit the goblin right in the head, it fell off the large man and it fell to the ground sqirming for a second before going completely gone for life.
"Wow I actually him it~!" asmodeus stood up as he was in a couched position....but then he remembered he was on a tree branch.
He fell out of the tree.
Crashing into the ground.
Losing consciousness
The others ran to the tanks side after snapping outta it, and he was seriously injured as he was crying in pain.
They tended to him and another goblin came but then the girl threw her dagger at it stabbing it in the chest and then she rushed it.
Kicking the ground and dashing at it with incredible speeds, she got feet away from it and jumped kicking it in the head with both her feet and making it fall back where she then quickly moved on the ground and as the goblin screamed for its life she got to it and grabbed the handle of the balls and the bashed her hand on its back and launched the blade even deeper into the goblin killing it.
But as she was heavily breathing from such a random and uncoordinated attack, she looked up to see a boy laying down and he was a bow next to him while a bunch of tone arrows laying on the ground next to him as well, as well as his quiver broken.
"Hey guys!. . .I think I found the archer who saved Fodel!" she yelled
***
Opening his eyes he saw leaning against a tree and it looked like it was night time, it was so dark but the stars were shining bright, litting the way for him.
But then he saw something bright and he looked down to see a fire? he felt his body stiff and he then remembered he fell from a tree, did mahiru make a campfire?
"Mahiru?. . ." he called out as he moved onto his knees and crawled to close to fire for warmth, it was quite cold out there.
But then as he saw his own breath he looked around and saw three people sitting at the fire just on the other side.
He got startled and jumped, not litterally, but he backed away "he's awake" the brittle guy said as he stood up and so did another, he watched as the two walked over to him and he felt a sudden fear as he was told there were bandits and killers everywhere and he didn't know if this was going to be his last or not.
He flinched as their movement was so fast but then after closing his eyes "thank you, if you didn't help when you did Fodel would been monster chow by now" asmodeus opened his eyes and to his surprise he saw them bowing.
"Umn?" he didn't know what to saw "it's no biggie miggy" he didn't know why he said that?
But then after they stoped bowing they stuck her hands out, one had a bow in it and the other hand a fixed quiver with his arrows back in it "these belong to you, thanks again!" she said and then he grabbed the two and put his quiver back on his back and just held the bow.
He was confused as they weren't bandits or anything like that, they were the same people he helped out before.
He then got up "thanks for holding onto my stuff, I have to go now, that goblin-" but then as he spoke the girl interupted him "were clearing out the goblin camp too! how about we team up and clear them out together, we'll split the reward four ways!" she said with passion and he was confused...they said to clear out the goblins, he just needed the leaders head.
But then he thought about it, more people means it'll be easier than waiting out here for the leader to come out, and then that also means mahiru might praise him if he dose better than he's supposed to, so kill the goblins and the leader, it's like a bounce.
She played a game with him and it tricked him into being less scared for taking the lives of goblins, she said something which sparked somthing in him to want to actually take up this mission.
"Yeah, join up with us, with the four of us, we'll be more likely to survive!" he said more passionate than her and then asmodeus laughed.
"If i can get big sis to prase me, I guess teaming up with you will be okay~" he said to himself as he wanted to please her and get praised, he then turned to then "I'll join you, lets go" he said but then he looked around and he put his hand to his mouth.
"Where are we?" he was clueless but then the guy walked up to him, dang he was big, like a whole few feet bigger. 5'7.
Asmodeus was still 4'9 so he had to look up at these people, for some reason he didn't like it, one of his flaws was his highy, and he had somthing other than fun in games in his head and that was to dominate...and make no one look down on him.
But he held it back.
After all he was a well behaved human...or so that's what he was told...truth be told, Demon's admire and respect the strong, so he only listened to them because he found them intriguing and also powerful enough to admire...plus one was his master and she was really strong, so he felt joy in her words and praise.

"We can't go yet, the goblins have been cooped up inside of their and from the guilds info broker, they are more on guard at this time of the day, well stike when they come out early in the morning and then wipe them out and ambush the rest when they come back" he said and asmodeus found that plan boring but intresting.
"Okay let's do that then...?" he didn't know his name "oh yeah, I forgot, my name is Bor and that questionable woman is Alethra, and the one you saved is Fodel" he introduced them like he was the leader of the group.
"And together were the Dotsk!" he introduced their group name, asmodeus clapped his hands as he did a random pose.
Sailor Jupiter would be so proud.
"What's your name little guy" he asked but and also insulted him in the process, but he payed it no mind, all he remembered to do while on a mission is never reveal he's an assassin. . .or just in general never tell he was an assassin.
He remembered the bow in his hand and he remembered fila.
"My name is Asmodeus and I'm a ranger~" he said but then the guy pointed to himself "nice to have you aboard as-asmoses... I'm a warrior my friend her is a assassin and the big lug over their is a tank" he said and asmodeus was surprised to hear she was also an assassin but he was a bit more upset that he said his name wrong.
But it was of no importance, after all, a assassin isn't supposed to he remembered by the people he meats on missions, it's good to dilute them...or somthing like that.
But then curiosity got the best of him "so, your an assassin? are you apart of a assassin's guild?" he asked but then she got confused "assassin's guild? never heard if it...wait are you making fun of me kid!!" she balled her fist and hit him over the head.
In the end he has a bump on his head from a misunderstanding, but it was better than almost exposing himself.
He found out that she only called herself an assassin, her actual class was a theif, but she felt she was better than them so she named herself an assassin.

Hours passed and morning arouse, and as it did goblins started leaving the cave system in groups.
