(*A/N: Here goes 3/3 chapter of this week. Please Enjoy.)

[It' overs. Huh.]
'Primis: Those Assassins were the only one who can give Ais a challenge. Remains are useless.'
[True. Since she didn't want to damage the mansion, she didn't use "Arielle" at the very beginning.]
'Primis: After she is done with her magic training, she won't have to worry about such things.'
[I agree.]
Primis then turned his gaze at Freya who was looking at him, as if asking what's going on inside. Primis didn't satisfy her curiosity and said something else.
Primis: Return to Syr, he's coming.
Freya narrowed her eyes. She understood what Primis mean. She also became curious about how he knew. She didn't see him taking out any magic item or artifact. Then how? But still she knew what's in priority right now. Light was released from her, and her appearance started to change.
Her height decreased. Then her silver hair and eyes turned to bluish gray. Light faded and Syr appeared. Syr then showed a smile to Primis before speaking.
Syr: By the way, if you are not busy would you go somewhere with me on the coming weekend.
Primis: No.
Syr: ...…
Syr became silent. Then she pouts. No one will believe that the one giving such cute reaction was in truth Freya in disguise.
Syr: Did you really hate me that much?
Primis: No, I didn't hate you a single bit.
Syr: Then why?
Primis: If you ask me for a date, I might even consider that. But I have no intention of visiting that Maria's Orphanage.
Syr eyes opened wide. No one knew that Freya or Syr are affiliated with Maria's Orphanage. She took care of all the orphaned children there. And the kindness she showed to the children are genuine. That's why Primis never hated Freya since the beginning.
Her only shortcoming was she will go to extreme length just to get her hands on the those who have great potential. But it's not something rare because everyone wanted to get their hands on those who have potential of becoming a powerhouse.
Syr: Y-You. How do you know?
Primis: I have my ways.
Syr: How—
Manager: Ms. Syr, I have brought the documents.
Syr turned and look at Manager who was hastily walking towards her. Syr glanced back at Primis before returning her gaze back at the manager. She also put smile on her face before greeting him. She decided to talk to Primis about that later. Since not only the anyone in "Hostess of Fertility" even her Familia didn't know about it. And yet Primis did.
Manager: I am sorry for keep you waiting. You must have been tried standing here all this time.
Syr: No. No. It's ok. We remain standing most of the time in our pub while serving the customers. So, it's alright.
Manager: Oh. I forgot that. Haha. Here are the documents. Please check.
Syr: Thank you.
Syr took the documents from the Manager hand and started to read them thoroughly. Primis didn't say anything since he had already read them before Manager even left his office. Thanks to Elemental Sight again. And he also knew that this Manager was happy all the time. He had already decided to use the favor Syr owed him by asking her to sleep with him.
The reason he took additional time then required for setting the documents is because he was formulating a note about what he will order Syr to do when they will sleep together. Primis was sure that this Manager exciting will reach a whole different level if he will know that Syr was in truth Goddess of Beauty, Freya.
Who in the Orario didn't want Freya to owe them? Too bad his wish won't be granted since he will be going to lose a big one soon. Primis just wanted to punish Freya a little. He had no intention of letting her owe the Manager.
[By the way, why didn't you agree with Freya request of visiting Maria's Orphanage?]
'Primis: Because I have no intention of going there.'
[Why?]
'Primis: In the plot, Freya also took Bell there. But they refused to give any helping hand to him for Xenos.'
[Well, that's true. However, what help can an Orphanage give in the first place?]
'Primis: They only need to hide Wiene for sometimes, but they refused.'
[Well, hiding her won't be that hard. I don't think they should refuse. Is that why you didn't want to meet them?]
'Primis: No. What they did is completely normal.'
[Huh? Then why?]
'Primis: Because it was a foolish decision to ask the help of any Orphanage in the first place.'
[Foolish Decision?]
'Primis: Yes. The parents of almost all the Orphaned children died in the dungeon by the hands of monsters. it's obvious that they all hate monsters. How can you ask them to help Xenos who are considered monsters in their eyes?'
[Oh. I get it. That's why you don't want to have any connection with them. Not with any Orphanage.]
'Primis: Yes.'
{Ais: My Lord, I am done.}
{Primis: Good. Now in the room you are right now, there is a chest.}
{Ais: Yes, there is.}
{Primis: Open the chest, take out a cape and wear it. Make sure you are completely covered. No one should recognize who is under it.}
{Ais: Yes.}
{Primis: Once you are done, burst out of the from the window of top floor and directly disappeared in the Alley.}
{Ais: Ok.}
Primis then stopped communicating with Ais and glanced at Sheng Ming. Sheng Ming nodded. She understood that she must be the one to receive Ais since only she can help her hide her presence. Primis then opened Ais updated status.

[She has reached the max stats limit of Level 1.]
'Primis: Now she only needs to increase her skills rank to F before I will Level her up.'
[Mn. But it will take time since increasing the proficiency of your skills take more time than increasing your stats.]
Primis nodded before looking at Syr who was done reading the documents. She nodded after confirming everything was fine. Just when she was about to sign, she received another message from Primis. Syr stopped for a moment before looking back at the Manager.
Syr: Mr. Manager, I want to tell you that I am not buying this Mansion for myself. Someone asked my help that's why I was looking for it for him. I hope I won't receive complaint from him saying he trusted me, but I made him buy worst house.
Manager: Don't worry Ms. Syr, I guarantee you that this is one of our best Mansion. You won't receive any complaint.
Syr nodded and proceed to sign the documents again. At that time, sound of glass shattering was heard.
BOOM!!!
SHATTER!!!
Syr and Manager turned towards the source of sound. There they saw someone covered in cloak burst out of the window. Before they can even react, that person rushed past them and disappeared in the alley. Seeing this they both stay rooted on their spot. They were still having hard time believing what they just witness. While they were still standing in trance, Syr received another message from Primis.
Primis: All yours.
She then glanced back at Primis. A small smile appeared on her face which she hurriedly hided.
'Syr: This guy.'
Syr turned to Manager with stern expression.
Syr: Mr. Manager, what is going on? Didn't you say that the Mansion is perfectly fine, and no one lives here?
Manager: M-Ms. Syr. Even I don't know what is going on.
Manager started to sweat buckets. Things took a whole different turn.
Syr: Open the gate. I want to check inside.
Manager: T-This...
Syr: Hmmm.
Syr gave him a hard stare. In the end, he had no choice but to comply. He took out the key with his trembling hand before opening it.
CREAK!!!
Gate opened and he walked inside with Syr following behind. Primis didn't go inside. He decided to wait outside. By now Ais had also returned by his side.
{Primis: You must have realized that you have reached the limit of your current level.}
{Ais: Mn.}
{Primis: Once all your skills rank will reach "F", I will level you up.}
{Ais: Ok.}
While Primis was talking with Ais, Syr and Manager enter the Mansion. On the ground floor, there was nothing much. Manager took the sigh of relief seeing that. Then they went to first floor, it was also clear. Second Floor, clear. Third Floor, clear. Now, Manager regained his confidence.
Manager: Ms. Syr see everything is fine. It appears that that person was only freeloading here. When he realized that we are going to check inside, he must have panicked and hastily left.
Syr: Mn. Maybe, you are right. But since only one floor remain, why don't we take a quick look at it too.
Manager: S-Sure.
Then they continued to the last floor. When they were climbing the stairs to next floor, Syr stopped and frowned. She turned and looked at Manager whose face had already turned pale by now. Both can smell the strong scent of blood just from half-way to fourth floor. Syr then hurriedly climbed.
Manager: M-Ms. Syr...
Manager tried to stop Syr but she didn't stop and reached fourth floor. Her eyes wide opened when she saw the spectacle in front. Manager also reached Syr side and saw this. His face became even more pale as his body started to tremble.
There were many bodies in the corridor of fourth floor. Not only that the entire corridor was in rumble. Some rooms were also destroyed. One thing is common in each case. There are bodies everywhere. Anyone can tell that they all died not too long ago. The entire floor was dyed red with blood. Syr glared at Manager and spoke in icy tone.
Syr: What is the meaning of this, Manager?
Manager: Ms. Syr even I don't know what's going on—
Syr: I trusted you and even owe you a favor. And that's how you repaid me.
Manager: T-That's—
Syr: I am sorry Manager, but our deal is cancelled. I also need to notify this to others whom I know that buying estate from you will be their biggest mistake.
Syr then turned and climbed down.
Manager: WAIT, MS. SYR.
Syr stopped her steps and looked back.
Syr: What?
Manager: Ms. Syr you owe me a favor.
Syr: So…
Syr became angry but decided to listen.
Manager: Ms. Syr, I want to use that favor now. Please promise me that you won't tell anyone what happened here.
Syr: YOU—
Syr gritted her teeth and clenched her fist in anger. Manager sigh inwardly seeing this reaction. One should know that Syr connections are too broad. If she will tell others about it, then no one will come to buy estate from him. That's why he had no choice but to use the favor she owed to him.
Syr: Even if I keep my mouth shut about this matter, what about the other matter. What should I say to the person for whom I chose this Mansion for.
Manager: Leave it to me. The person will be arriving tomorrow morning, right. By the time he will arrive I will make sure to clean up all the place and do a full renovation.
Syr: Hmph.
Syr snorted and walked down. Manager finally calm down and followed behind. Because he was following behind, he didn't notice smile on Syr face.
'Syr: Not only he was able to punish me, but he also even used me to attain more profit. Primis you are making me more and more curious about you.'
