"Master, can I kill him?" Aleshia asked.
She was the one who hit the guard. She used her powerful legs to kick him down to the ground.
"Make it quick and leave no traces," Lawrend replied.
"Ella, look away," Aleshia said.
"Yes, Big Sister."
Ella turned around and faced the other way.
Aleshia walked towards the city guard and grabbed his hair, and lifted him up from the ground.
"Y-Y-You can't kill me! I'm a city guard! You will be hunted by th—"
Aleshia didn't care what the guard was saying. She grabbed his neck with her free hand and chanted a spell.
"O' Harbinger of Darkness, corrupt the soul of the living, bring darkness unto the world, take a life, Life Disintegration!" Aleshia chanted.
Horror appeared on the guard's face as he realized that she was using darkness magic.
Without any suspense, dark, eerie root-like tendrils slowly spread from his neck and covered his whole body.
He tried to speak, but nothing came out except stuttering noises.
His eyes turned black, and his skin became pale before he slowly lost his life in a span of 10 seconds.
The dead guard's body dropped to the ground, and the ground slowly swallowed it before a small white mushroom popped out.
"Big Sister, what magic was that..?" Ella asked with a scared look on her face.
"It's a fast way to kill someone without spilling blood," Aleshia calmly replied and rubbed Ella's head.
"Kill?"
"Mm. He's a bad man. He deserves to die," Aleshia said and smiled at Ella.
"Okay. I understand," Ella replied, still in a daze.
As she was still a little girl, seeing someone die in such a fashion was even scarier than seeing those assassins that ambushed them die before.
"What do you think of my magic, Master?" Aleshia asked him with a slight proud smile on her face.
"That's a High Mage Magic Spell, right?"
"Yes! It leaves no trace and kills silently," Aleshia responded happily.
"It's a good spell. I think it fits you, who's an assassin," Lawrend complimented.
"Thank you, Master!" Aleshia bowed to him.
She was happy that he recognized the strength of her magic spell.
"Let's go into the city," Lawrend said.
He kicked the white mushroom and entered the city with them.
Once inside, they were greeted with the bustling of the city. Bright lights were all over the place that made it obvious how wealthy it was. Compared to Sheron Port City, there were various people here wearing cloaks from other continents.
"What Mage Guild is that?" Lawrend couldn't help but ask.
He was staring at a man wearing a yellow cloak with a yellow mage pin attached to it. It was very similar to his, but it used stars instead of the octagon.
"He's a High Mage, Master. If I'm not remembering wrong, he should be from the Altro Continent," Humility explained.
She knew he was a High Mage because of the count of stars on his mage pins. In total, there were three stars on his Mage Pin.
"Interesting. Where is this Altro Continent located?" Lawrend asked.
"It's southeast from here, Master. They actually developed the same magic system as ours even without any contact to us," Humility replied.
"Ramiela, do you know anything about that continent?" Lawrend turned to her and asked.
"It's more powerful and treasure-rich compared to this Primitus Continent," Ramiela answered.
"So our continent is called the Primitus Continent, huh. I wonder how big it is," Lawrend muttered in thought.
"Hmph. Of course, a human like you would never be able to fathom it. Even if that big white bird of yours continuously flies in a straight line, she would still take two weeks to reach the other end of the continent," Ramiela sneered.
"That big!?" Lawrend exclaimed in shock.
Clova was already almost as fast as the planes in his past life. For her to take two weeks just to reach the other end, he could not imagine the size.
"It may seem big, but the ocean is bigger, Lawrend," Ramiela continued.
"I feel like an ant…" Aleshia said in a daze.
"Am I even significant in this world?" Amene said.
"She's right, Master. It takes three months to reach the Altro Continent from here. Unless you're a High Mage and above, no one dares to traverse the ocean," Humility said.
"Doesn't that mean that there are Arch Mages and many High Mages landing in this city?" Lawrend asked.
"They will ride another ship to the Port City of the empire," Humility replied.
"I see. So this is just their stop. I hope none of them will interfere with our plans," Lawrend said.
"In their eyes, this city is a backwater place. If it weren't for the needs of the ships to restock, they wouldn't dock here," Humility further explained.
"Alright. Let's go find an inn then. I will test Nao first," Lawrend said.
Talking about a distant continent was still so soon. He should just focus on the problems he had on hand.
When Nao heard that he would be tested, he became nervous. This would decide his future if he would be able to stay as Lawrend's butler and potion brewer.
"I will test you first thing tomorrow morning. For now, rest," Lawrend said to him.
They quickly found a decent inn and booked a room for Lawrend, Humility, Aezel, and Amene.
Aleshia, Grape, Ella, and Elena stayed in a separate room. Then Ramiela, Nao, and Kenova stayed in their own.
"Fufufufu. I love being your protector, Master. I get to spend a lot of time with you," Aezel said with a chuckle.
She sat on the fluffy king-sized bed with Lawrend lying beside her. Meanwhile, Amene and Humility sat on the other king-sized bed in the room.
The room had a warm atmosphere from the orange light the magic lamp was giving.
"Come sit here," Lawrend said and patted his lap.
"Fufufufu. Sister Amene, you can take your spot. She needs more of your seed, Master," Aezel replied with a wide smile on her face.
"Master, can I kill him?" Aleshia asked.
She was the one who hit the guard. She used her powerful legs to kick him down to the ground.
"Make it quick and leave no traces," Lawrend replied.
"Ella, look away," Aleshia said.
