Chapter 28 - Chapter 28: An Assassin

Rose's POV:

After eating, Mira made me burp and tucked me to the bed.

Even though I expended my energy to various things today, I am not tired and I can't sleep. Especially after hearing that news from Mira.

Maybe deep down within me is a worry that I might get implicated. I can't afford to lose this peaceful life that I have! And I must honor my mother's wish, for me to avoid the complexities of the Palace.

I stood up, and decided to practice my Water Element Manipulation.

Water Ball

The ball materialized and I started guiding it through the pot.

"Alpha, are you there?"

"User, Yes."

"Do you have a security function of any sort?"

"User, Alpha can scan the vicinity and notify the User for anything to note for."

"That's good to know, Alpha! Please sound a blaring alarm bells to my head so that I'll wake up immediately. This way, ill6if it's dangerous of not.

After casting 12 water balls, the Experience Points jumped to 6%, and sleep soon came to me.

I layed down the bed and drifted to sleep.

*Intruder Alert!

*Intruder Alert

*Intruder Alert

"Host, a person is trying to forcibly enter through the window. Wake Up!

I woke up abruptly and covered myself with a transparent water shield. I sure hope that this will stop the intruder.

I also readied a water ball in my palm.

"Intruder, Approaching!"

I clutched my my cotton dress with my free hand... And nervously glanced at the place where Alpha said he discovered the intruder.

I can see his silhouette but I can't see his face due to the decorative mask blocking the way. His steps are extremely light, this is a sign that he's an expert at this!

He arrived right in front of me and silently raised his hands holding a dagger. He raised it, and plunged it in my way.

I closed my eyes and heard of the crack. I opened my eyes to see a slight crack to my water shield.

That was close!

If I slacked off practices, them maybe I would have died, here and now!
