“Who’s that girl behind you Jack?” Aileen asked.

Jack is another Rogue that works here part time because he’s also an adventurer. He is one of the better rogues in the Rogue Guild according to Aileen.

“Oh, this is Emily, she’s my new student. Emily say hi to Rane and Aileen.”

Emily’s eyes widened when Jack said “Aileen”.

“You’re Aileen?” Emily asked while staring at Aileen.

“Heh, you know of me eh?” she said with a bemused smile.

“Are you kidding me? You’re Red Blade Aileen! Probably the best assassin in the entire kingdom!”

‘Woah… I didn’t know that.’

Emily was all bubbly and excited about meeting Aileen and was chatting nonstop while Aileen seemed a bit embarrassed about 

having a fan.

I observed the new girl as she was animatedly talking to Aileen. She was average height for a girl her age. She looked to be 15 or 16. A little bit older than me. She was blonde with nice curves and what my eyes couldn’t help but focusing on was her breasts. 

She had nice perky boobs. But I quickly averted my eyes so as not to be called a pervert.

“Alright girl, shut up. It’s time to begin your training.” Jack interrupted and led her away.

“I guess we should get back to where we were also.” Said Aileen.

We sparred for the rest of the day. Every time I think that I’m about to land a hit on Aileen she moves with inhuman speed and somehow manages to either dodge, block or counter it.

By the end of the day a notification came up saying that I learned [Dagger Arts☆]

“Aileen I learned [Dagger Arts]!”

“Took you long enough. It normally takes the average rogue about three weeks to earn basic mastery of their chosen weapon. Remember, the more you practice and the more proficient you become in the dagger, the more stars you will gain which will result in you becoming more powerful with that weapon.”

I was a little bummed out that I was slower than the average person but I decided not to dwell on it.

“Okay, we’ll call it a day here. Starting from tomorrow, we’re only going to spar occasionally and not focus too heavily on your weapon. This can be considered as completing the first part of your training. From now on, we’re going to focus on your lock picking skills, stealth, and pick pocketing. But you must train on your own on throwing and the dagger.”

With that said, I spent the rest of the day off and was in my room looking over my egg.

It’s been over a month and it still hasn’t hatched. I asked Aileen about it and apparently demon beast eggs take a long time to hatch and that I shouldn’t worry about it.

My days slowly passed by and soon another month has passed. This period of learning was a lot easier than the first month as there weren’t as much brutal beatings from Aileen.

I learned [Lock Picking ☆], [Pick Pocket ☆], and [Stealth ☆]. I didn’t slack off in my training in the [Dagger Arts] and [Throw], I even got another star in [Throw], which now made it three stars. But [Dagger Arts] still stayed in one star.

During this month I got to know Emily a lot better. She didn’t talk to me the first two weeks I attempted to speak with her, until Jack, her teacher, told me that she is really shy with strangers. The only reason she was able to talk to Aileen was because she was a big fan of hers.

This book is hosted on another platform. Read the official version and support the author's work.

Eventually, Aileen had me spar with Emily and because I was stronger and had more experience than her, I was able to give a few pointers and we hit it off from there.

Emily focused on using knives instead of a dagger like me. So she carries around a lot of knives on her body. She’s probably carrying around dozens of small knives everywhere she goes.

Emily is the first actual friend that I made in this world. Aileen doesn’t count because she’s my teacher and she’s scary.

I’m now in my 3rd and final month of training. I don’t know what to expect but I’m kind of excited to be out on my own.

“This is your final month with me.” Aileen said. “From now on we’re going to have you actually take on missions from the guild.”

“Oh? What kind of missions.” I asked.

“There are a variety of them but they will be quite easy for you. Go to Ben and he’ll give you your first mission. You have to complete several of them within the remaining days that you have in order to be fully initiated to become a rogue. If you don’t then you have to spend another month of training and you have to pay an extra 25 silvers.”

I was a bit shocked that I could possibly flunk from this thing which made me determined not to stay an extra month here and pay extra money from my pockets. I still had about 20 silvers left from the reward for discovering a new dungeon, so I couldn’t 

afford failing these missions.

I went to Ben who was behind the counter serving drinks and asked him for my missions.

“Has it already been two months since you got here? Time flies eh? Anyway, here you go. These are the missions that you have to complete. Remember that you have one month.” He gave me a piece of paper with sloppy handwriting that had a list of the missions.

I took a look at the missions and was speechless. Who the hell made this up? This list was…. Perverted.

Mission List

1.      Obtain one underwear from Aileen without her knowing.

2.      Obtain one underwear from Emily without her knowing.

3.      Bring Mission items to Ben when completed.

I went back to Ben and asked him what in the hell this was.

“Aren’t they fine babes? I could get a pretty penny for selling these to some of the guys that work around here you know? And 

you should be happy that I only gave you three missions. Other initiates usually get around five or more.

I was speechless. I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at his words. I went back to my room and contemplated on how to complete my missions.

Ben practically gave me a suicide quest. If I succeed, then everything will be fine. If I fail, then I will be branded as a pervert by Emily AND Aileen and I will most likely die a gruesome death.
