I had honestly expected to need to wait at least a few days or even a few weeks before getting a reply. My expectations were thrown out the window, however, when Katsuki came to me the next morning with a letter.
The more surprising thing was that he even accepted my request to meet with me tonight and picked a spot outside of the city within a forest clearing.
To that, Katsuki just said, "Letting the assassin pick the location is the worst thing, Mistress… We should ask him to let us choose the location instead."
Well, I'm already expecting him to be rigging the entire place with traps and stuff for our meeting anyway.
I shrugged, "It doesn't really matter either way. Do you think he knows who I am?"
Katsuki shook her head, "If he did, father would definitely not act this brazenly. I suspect he thinks you are just a run of the mill noble who sent me here for maid training."
"Would he attack this mansion though?"
