A few minutes before Aither killed Armon.
Amelia was sitting on her bed, thinking of only one thing in her mind.
It was the figure of the person she just met, yet that person was willing to help her.
She couldn't get him out of her mind for a while now.
"He's really kind...."
That was her honest feelings.
She was a prideful woman and that's why she wanted to kill the person who killed her family by herself.
But she knew it wasn't possible for her.
The person she's aiming to kill always has his subordinates around to protect him.
And as for going to the brothel, she didn't even think about it one bit.
That's why for a fourteen years old girl who had her entire family killed.
That person's helping hand and confidence really reassured her.
It left a strong impression on her mind.
It felt to her that if it was him who was willing to help someone he just met.
Someone who is kind and confident.
She felt it would be fine even if it wasn't her who killed that bastard.
Still, she didn't want to just sit around.
Leaving her work to someone else was not her forte.
"Butter knife."
But before that, when she thought of those two words again.
A heavy feeling of embarrassment flowed through her entire being.
After all, giving him a weapon to kill was the least she could do to help him.
But no, she only had a butter knife as a weapon.
Who could blame her, she was chased out and she probably didn't have that much coins with her.
"I at the very least need to do something for him right?"
'But I don't have anything. They all took it away from me.... Everything.'
Except for the spare coins she had given to her by her parents she really had nothing.
As she was thinking about what she can give him a couple of knocks came out from her door.
"Aither?"
She thought but it was still just a few minutes before Aither left.
That's why she became wary.
Her guard was up and she looked around for a weapon she could use.
"There's nothing here....."
Or so she said but she didn't give up on looking.
If she doesn't have one then....
"Then I'll just improvise."
She grabbed the mirror Aither used and smashed it to pieces.
After that she wrapped the bottom of the longest piece with a cloth making look like an improvised knife.
The knocking on the door became louder and it soon turned even louder.
*Bang*
*Bang*
*Bang*
And finally the door broke open and 3 guys stepped into the room.
"She's really here, I guess what that landlord said was true.
And she looks fine as hell.
Maybe I could enjoy my time with her before we bring her to the young lord."
One of them began talkin, he looked at Amelia as if he was looking at his prey.
"Are you stupid?! What if she tells the young lord.
You might even get executed for touching the girl he fancies and I'll also get in trouble if that happens."
Another retorted in anger, he was telling off the first man who spoke.
"Come on, are you really that afraid of that little bastard Jimmy?
I agree with Gary over here.
Plus, the boss won't know if we just shut her up right?"
The third one finally spoke up and started convincing the one who was opposed.
"Fine, do whatever you want, but I won't wanna get involved so I'll be waiting outside."
Jimmy said before looking at Amelia with pity in his eyes.
Then he went outside the room before saying a few words.
"Don't mess her up too much."

Shit!
Should I have brought her to my room before I killed this bastard?
The screen still isn't showing up, that means she's still in danger.
Come to think of it I didn't see any guards around him when he went inside this hotel.
Those bastards must have found Amelia and waited for me to leave first.
I need to hurry, It's already been more than an hour after I left.
Something must have happened already, I could only hope that she's still safe.
I quickly wore my clothes once more and hurriedly went out of the room.
I used the elevator to go down to the ground floor.
There I saw the clerk and she moved in to speak with me.
"Where are you going?"
I looked at her who was smiling at me for a moment before saying an excuse.
"Home.
That man wasn't able to satisfy me even a single bit.
He only lasted four rounds after letting it out so quickly.
He's already exhausted that's why I'm going home for today."
She was surprised by my words and she was even looking at me with a little bit of admiration.
Then, before I left she tugged on my dress and gave me a red card.
"It's your first pay.
And since you're a newcomer and this is your first day, we won't be deducting anything.
Quite smart of you to pick him as your first customer.
I guess you've been planning this from the start, huh?"
I ignored her words.
I'm in a hurry so after taking the red card I quickly left the brothel.
Along the way I took back the mask in the alleyway and wore it on my face.
I ran faster than I've ever run because of my increased strength.
But I conserved some of my source if I encounter a situation I needed to fight.
Amelia's quite strong she'll be able to run away if she encounters a dangerous situation.
But what if she encounters a situation where she can't doing anything but fight?
That guy's subordinates are at least at the first Phase and with many of them around, Amelia will be at a disadvantaged.
I can't let that happen!
I just hope.....
That I'm not too late.
