The Goddess Made A Mistake Again

I watch the two silhouettes vanish before my eyes as if it was a magic trick. But my eyes told me otherwise. They or more like the master assassin picked up his student and ran like crazily that his figure seems to vanish but it was only his afterimage.

Now think of a person who can actually move so fast that he leaves an afterimage behind would be considered dangerous, right?

Wrong!

The motherfucker was hella story ending final boss level crazy batshit pulling tricks kinda guy. NO way was I near his strength to defeat him much less kill him.

I just bet everything on my secret skill and hoped it would work, thankfully it did and he agreed to my condition. It would have been just stupid if that girl would just come to kill me and I wouldn't be able to do anything about it.

Like I don't who that bitch even is. She tries to assassinate me and brings along someone like that for support, either my luck is bad or… yeah I can't think of anything else.

I sit down over the grass and give a big sigh, "Haaah… Let's just hope that would keep those idiots away from me for a while." My mind then wandered around the girl.

The girl was strong, sure, but she was still far from actually defeating me. After what happened today, she would train harder now and next time she attacks… she might actually make it a fun one.

As long as that guy doesn't do anything.

Clearing my mind out of depressing thoughts, I get out of there and back into the house, through the broken wall. By now all of the maids that were still employed and others such as Alice, Raven and Jacob were standing inside that place.

Seeing me enter, all of them started asking me questions at the same time.

"How are you, Master?"

"Where have you been, Master?"

"Are you hurt anywhere, Master?"

"What happened here, Master?"

"You weren't stabbed right, Master?"

"Were they strong, Sir?"

"Did you get your ass kicked or something?"

"Stop!" I raised a hand, signaling all of them to stop. "I'll answer enough for you to fill better."

"First, I am okay. I am not hurt at all." I said but Jacob raised his hands at that.

"You sure?" He said pointing to my clothes which were filled with dusts from all of the furniture and walls I broke.

"Yeah… I'm fairly certain." I said then looked at the other maids, "As you see I'm okay. I'm not dead yet so you guys still have your jobs." My words brought some laughter, "So don't worry anymore and go back to sleep. The sun will be up in a few hours so sleep whilst you still can, tomorrow we have a big job to do."

Understanding what I meant, both Anna and Redwick shooed away the maids. Now only the people I trust… well, I trust decently except for Anna, were left in the room.

All of them were quiet and it took a moment before Raven asked, "Were they strong?"

"How much did you see?" I asked him as Raven recounted his memories.

"I came after Miss Anna and Redwick so I only saw you being surrounded by those two."

"Well, you missed the real action." I said pointing towards the furniture which were broken, "The little girl was quite feisty but her master… let's just say he's power level is beyond the realm of our understanding."

"Even stronger than you, master?" Anna asked, her shock evident.

I laughed hearing her, which made them all confused, "Let me give you an example, think of me as an ant and that guy an elephant." My words made their minds shatter in understanding, "He's only a few levels stronger than me in raw strength, but his experience and knowledge of forbidden arts and such makes him a very deadly opponent."

All of them went quiet again before Jacob asked, "And what about the girl? Is she stronger than this guy?" He said pointing at Raven in a rude way.

Even if Raven didn't like that, he too wanted to know the answer.

"Raven… no, I don't think so." I said thinking for a moment, "But it's not like I know your strength personally so it's a maybe."

"And me?"

"Fuck no! You'll die before you even know what the hell happened." I said critically as a sour face came on to him.

"Okay that was uncalled for." He said but I shook my head.

"No, you don't understand. This is an assassin we're talking about, one that is being taught by one of the very best in the world. Even if I beat her, it didn't mean that she's weak, instead you can say she's very strong enough to actually contend with me."

"The only reason why I said Raven might win is because of his animal instinct. But even with that I'm not fairly sure."

"So in other words, we're fucked huh." Jacob said.

Glancing at them, I see their expression similar to someone who had a bad lemon so I clapped, bringing their attention, "Why are all of you looking so gloomy? You don't need to worry about them anymore, we won't be seeing them for some time."

"Now go get some sleep, we really have a lot to do tomorrow." They nodded before all of them left. But later, the door to the office opened revealing it was Jacob, "Hey, you awake?"

"Yeah," Rubbing the sleep out of my eye, "What do you need… and please don't tell me it's a teddy bear."

"Fuck you and no, that's not it." His face seemed concerned enough for me to stop my jokes, "Before when you talked about that guy with the girl, you seemed as if you know about him."

"And your point?" I raise a brow, the guy's much perceptive then I thought.

"Who is he?"

"Truth be told; I can't be sure if he's really who I think or not but I can only confirm one thing." I said, trusting him, "He was from the Gildong Sect."

"Gildong Sect?" He asked not really recalling anything by that name.

'Gildong Sect… you really did score a good enemy with this one, pops.'
