A Top Assassin Reincarnates as a Noble

Chapter 21: Sephone

“‘Will.”

I looked at the girl walking over and said my name.

“Hello, Will. Nice to meet you!”

The girl held out her hand.

“Hello, Miss Sephone.”

I reached out my hand and shook hers lightly. I glanced around. “Let’s leave this place before we talk. Let the guards take care of things here.”

“Mm mm, okay!”

Sephone immediately understood.

We left the middle of the road and returned to the crowd.

The guards at the entrance of the city had already rushed over, but no one dared to go forward.

The lower-ranking officers guarding the city gate did not have the right to mediate the dispute between nobles like us. When faced with such a situation, the only thing they could do was to maintain order and report this matter to their superiors as soon as possible. They would send a noble officer with sufficient status to mediate.

“Will, that was really dangerous!”

“Yes, it was a close call. Thank you for getting me out of this, Miss Sephone.”

“Ah, so I was of help to you just now?”

Sephone was stunned. She covered her mouth and looked at me in shock.

“Yes, if it hadn’t been for Miss Sephone, I might have had to get to my knees and apologize.”

“Pfft- You’re really humorous. However, since you think that I helped you out just now, don’t call me Miss Sephone anymore. Just call me Sephone. Anyway, we’ll meet soon at the Olgus Academy.”

“…Mm, alright, Sephone.”

I hesitated, then agreed.

Judging from the reaction of the little fatty called Carle just now, Miss Sephone’s family should have some influence in the capital as well.

Although I wasn’t sure why she took the initiative to express her goodwill, I had no reason to refuse.

Who would refuse to be friends with such a cute and beautiful girl!

Of course.

That doesn’t apply to me.

Because of Jennifer, I was already immune to beautiful girls with outstanding looks.

After enrolling at the Glei Academy, I asked my father if I would attend the academy in the future.

After all, as a family of assassins, it was not good to be too famous. As for learning magic, hiring a reliable home tutor would take care of it.

However, my father denied my opinion.

There were three reasons.

Firstly, although being famous would attract attention, it would also be a form of perfect protection. After all, who would believe that an outstanding student of the Olgus Academy, one of the three major academies in the kingdom, was an assassin? Secondly, as the Sword of Damocles of the kingdom, it was unrealistic for me to eliminate all the corrupt nobles in the kingdom by myself. I also needed outstanding teammates.

Although the students of the kingdom’s three major academies were mainly nobles, some talented commoner students could also enter. They were the naturally outstanding teammates. As for how to make them work for me, that would depend on my ability.

Thirdly, the etiquette of interacting with other nobles was something that I could not see at home. And after entering the academy, I could bond with more noble descendants, get along with them peacefully, and even become friends with them. This was very necessary for assassinations in special venues in the future.

So.

Learning how to interact with other nobles was also one of my missions for entering the academy.

“Hehe~ Let’s put it this way, Will!”

Sephone’s eyes curved into crescents.

Mm.

They looked very cute.

“Mm.”

I nodded.

“Will, actually, you weren’t prepared to beg for mercy from Carle just now, right?”

“Yes, that was the case.”

“Then, what would you have done if I hadn’t stopped Carle just now?”

“I probably would’ve beat him and send him. I’m sure you saw, I’m quite skilled.”

I spread my hands and gave a known answer.

“Yes, yes. Your dart hit the eye of the Appaloo warhorse very accurately, especially the position where you threw the suitcase to. You even predicted the trajectory of the coachman’s fall perfectly. It was really amazing. That’s why I could help a little.”

Sephone nodded seriously.

The case was solved.

Sure enough, that coachman could stand up unscathed because someone had acted.

In just a few sentences, I had gained a whole new level of respect for this Sephone.

Not only had she observe the scene in detail, she also knew the breed of the two horses.

“So you’re a Wind Mage?”

I asked.

Only the Wind and Water elements could allow a person to land safely under such circumstances.

There was no sign of the Water element at the scene, so it could only be a small wind field that formed under the coachman.

“Well, I learned a little Wind Magic at home, but I’m not familiar with it yet. Fortunately, the magic did take effect this time.”

Slightly embarrassed, Sephone shared.

“You haven’t even entered the academy yet, but you can already use Wind Magic and become a true Mage. Moreover, you saved someone else’s life this time. You’re already so outstanding that it makes one envious.”

“Haha, you’re exaggerating too much. I’m still far from being a true Mage. By the way, what attribute is your magic?”

“It should be light attribute, if the crystal ball didn’t make a mistake during the test.”

I told a small lie.

After all, if I were to say that I had dual-attribute magic of light and darkness, this student would probably immediately change her attitude and find an excuse to leave.

After all, no one would be willing to chat with a liar.

“Sigh- You actually have the rare light attribute! No wonder you’re so skilled. I heard that the knights of the Kingdom’s Knights of the Holy Light are also very skilled. Will you join them in the future?”

Sephone’s eyes lit up for a moment.

“Probably not. I have my own plans.”

“Is that so…”

“Yes. Sephone, we’re almost at the inn where I’m staying. Where are you staying? Do you need me to send you back?”

I pointed ahead to a street with a corner ahead and asked Sephone.

“So you’re staying on Browning Street. I live on this street. It’s already very close. I can walk there by myself. Thank you, Will.”

Bethany looked up at the street sign and pointed to the street directly ahead, smiling. “Alright, Sephone, let’s say goodbye here. Goodbye.”

e.

“Goodbye, Will.”

I said good-bye to Sephone, walked into Browning Street, and started looking for the Riston Inn.

It did not take long

before I found its location.

As a three-story luxury hotel that combined food and accommodation, it was quite conspicuous on the street.

After taking a few steps forward with my luggage, I glanced at the sky and frowned slightly. The sun had already set, and the street lamps had already begun to light up.

It should be time for the people to dine and rest after a busy day.

However, Riston Inn’s entrance was a deserted scene.
