(Ilua's POV)

I covered my face after changing clothes to something that I don't usually use. Well, "covering" my face. I actually just worn one armor set that I used long ago for some time. Actually, it's something that i hold dearly and i only stoped to use it because i was able to make a better amor for myself in the time that I had to face Soul of Cinder.

Once, the knight order that I had founded a long time ago used to wear this armor. Well, I also as my brother knights fell into madness. After many years and many fights, my armor was scorched black, but still had it's golden decorations.

it's already night, and they have reached the mansion of this noble. It's time. I ask Sylph to fly over the entrance over quite a good height, enought so that they can't see us. Then, after asking Sylph to wait nearby and wait for my signal, I jump from her back.

I fall silently on te ground a bit far from the mansion. On my waist, Onikiri and Ubadachi are strapped.

(Uba): "You know that it won't work, right?"

(Ilua): "Well, that's why you are on my waist right now."

(Uba): "Yeah, that's true. Also, can you keep me out from that mist for now on? It's quite lonely there."

(Ilua): "Don't worry, partner, I'm also not thinking in puting you there again. Let's go."

(Uba): "Go for it, partner."

I walk slowly to the mansion. They have just arrived, so I still have time to get things trught peacefully before Count Mott tries something. The guards notice me and yell at me:

(Guard#1): "Stop right there! What's your business here?"

(Ilua): "Good night, I'm here to have a talk with Count Mott, it's urgent."

(Guard#1): "Sorry, but if you want to talk with Count Mott you will need permission from him and then book a conference. Please, go away."

Yeah, I imagined something like that. I walk in their direction while sighting. Before they could raise their voices, I said:

(Ilua): "Sorry, but I have to do this right now."

I jumped foward and hit the back of the necks of each guard. They fall on the ground, unconscious. I walk foward and try the doors. They're locked. I kick the doors, making them fly inside with a loud bang. The servants inside panick, but I simply ignore them.

I can clearly feel Siesta's soul from here. Since I can be considered a master sorcrer, and I'm master at manipulating souls, it's easy for me to track down a simple soul. I walk in the mansion, to Siesta's direction. A lot of guards come at me, but I simply defeat them before they can do anything.

It's quite easy, even if they can be considered descent warriors in this world, to me they are simple newbies. The strongest enemy that I fought was Soul of Cinder, the incarnation of us all, who lit the fire. I don't know how many years we fought, but I'm sure that it was more than... a thousand years?

I had lit the fire, but I hadn't passed away, so most part of my power was still with my original body, and just a very small part was within Souls of Cinder. Now that I think about it... the Fire Keeper, from my home, the Firelink Shrine... is she... still alive? I hope so, When I come back, I will try to summon her.

I miss her so much... Now that I think about it, she was one of the reasons that I never broke during my journey. Always coming back tired, and resting at her lap... old times indeed. A-anyway, I mow down the guards as I move trough the mansion at fast speed.

Of course, I'm going to Siesta's location. I can feel three other presences with her on a room, and she's pretty far from the others. This presence... the Count? Good, I migh as well threat him so that he can leave her alone.

Reaching the door of the room, I kick it open. Inside, two guards, Siesta and Count something are iside the room. These two guardsa are dressed in different armors, nad have much stronger auras then the other guards. Probably skilled bodyguards.

(Count): "You, why the hell have you invaded my mansion? Do you want my treasures?"

He asked me angrily. Making my voice sound a bit different, I said.

(Ilua): "Yes, I seek your latest acquisition, that girl over there."

I said, indicating Siesta, who looked at me surprised. The cunt... Count smirked and said scornfully.

(Count): "So you want to steal my new toy, huh? Unfortunatelly, I'm not willing to part with it since I haven't used it yet. You both, kill him."

He said, arrogantly. But the both warriors hesitated. Hoh~, they aren't half bad, I can clearly feel their fear from here. They must be experienced warriors, to be able to feel danger from me. The Cunt frowned at this.

(Count): "What's wrong with you both? Aren't you supposed to be rank S adventurers? Kill him already! Few things in this country should pose threat to you guys!"

He says. Adventurers, eh? Interesting, I should look at this later. Motivated by the cunt's words, the adventurers attack me. Well, they are slow to me, but I thin that someone in this world can call them "fast". The first one uses a spear, while the other uses a sword.

 The sword wielder reaches me first, slashing with an overhead strike with one hand. Using his right hand. I give a small step to the left, avoiding the attack. With my right hand, I grab his wrist, twisting it, making him tun in the air and go flying ahead and crashin out of the room from the door that I cam in.

The spear user tryed a stab, but with my left hand, I hit the side of the spear with a casual movement, making him miss. At the same time, I step foward, geting close to him, punching him in the stomach, making him fall on the ground fainted.

(Ilua): "Well then, you bodyguards weren't a challenge. I will be taking her with me."

Before that I could step closer to Siesta, some magic comes flying on my direction. By instintc, I move my left hand, slaping the ice spike away with my left hand. Before the ice could touch my hand, a thin layer of light appears between them. This effect is the effect of the ring of Yorgh, it can deflect magic. I didn't knew that it worked on magic of this world.

Both Siesta and Cunt lookt at me surprised. Yeah, you don't see this kind of thing everyday. Cunt something was the one that used that magic against me. I glared at him from inside my helmet. He fliched with my gaze. I approached him slowly.

(Cunt): "S-s-s-s-stay away from me!"

He screamed, throwing magics at me like crazy. Various ice spikes flew on my direction, but I moved my hand faster, slapping all of them away. I get to Cunt and grab his neck, nearly suffocating him. Then, I say in a cold tone.

(Ilua): "I will take her away with me back to the academy. If you ever even look at her gain, or try anything to any of the maids in the academy, There won't benything left from you or your family to tell the story."

I relese him, and he falls on his ass. An horrible smell comes up. He soiled his pants. Gross...

Walking to Siesta, she flinhces as I approach. I say in a low voice, so that only she can hear.

(Ilua): "Calm down, I won't hurt you. Come here, I will take you back to the academy."

(Siesta): "A-alright."

I apporach her and take her on my arms in a princess carry. Going outside the mansion, with all the guards on the ground knocked out, I mount Sylph with Siesta and we fly back to the acdemy. Siesta is sitted in front of me, with her legs to the left and leaning on my chest with my arm around her shoulders. With my hand, i took off my helm and stored it on the mist.

(Siesta): "Ilua! It was you!"

I smiled to her.

(Ilua): "Of course."

(Siesta): "But why? Why did you came for me?"

(Ilua): "If you were to stay here, who would teach me to cook? Ot would be extremely bodring."

She blushes, and stay silent. We fly trought the night sky, back to the academy.
