Today is the first day I received the system and today was almost no different from the past few years. The only thing the system gave me was a mission...
Daily Duties: Complete your daily duties as a servant! Reward: 100 Experience, 50 Points.
After finishing my duties I received the reward and ranked up, I'm now a Tier 1 Novice. As I was going back to the living quarters, I was thinking to myself, "Why didn't William Oswald call for me?" I didn't think too long about it as I arrived at my room and entered. When I was about to lay down and goto sleep, I saw a letter on my dresser with the seal of the city lord on it. Maybe the reason why he didn't call was in this letter? I picked it up and sat down on my bed, I teared off the seal and opened it.
"Dear, Aahna
I didn't call for you today because I was too busy with documents and diplomatic matters. I'm going to be retiring in a week and a new city lord will be appointed by the capital. Tomorrow morning, I want you to come to my office to have a discussion.
From, William Oswald"
I was a bit skepticle but even if I became a Tier 1 Novice, I still couldn't do anything about it since William's rank is Beginner. But if something bad were to happen, I would need counter measures. I opened up the store and looked around to see what was inside of it. After looking around for about 10 minutes, I didn't find anything I could buy with 50 Points besides a cloak that boosted your speed by 25%. I decided to ask the system, "Little System, is there anything you could do to help me?" I waited for a response for a moment, just as I was getting annoyed it replied, "I can't help you a lot, but I might be able to pull a string and give you a gift basket. The items you receive will be completely random and it all relies on your luck. Are you alright with that?" I thought for a moment since my luck was pretty bad considering what happened from my past life to my current life. But even if it's bad, I can atleast get one thing useful. I said, "Sure, go for it." After saying that a chest appeared on the end of my bed, I brought it over to me and I was left shocked from what I received. The contents in the chest were: A scythe, an assassn's outfit, a lockpick, a
manual, and 500 gold coins. With my terrible luck, I actually got useful items.
Void Assassin's Scythe (Unique Grade)
A sharp and light scythe that can reap lives of others without producing any sound or producing any wind. It's completely concealed by the void.

Whether you will use it to travel, store your items, or simply live there. Reaching perfect of this will make you capable of knocking on the palace door of ???
After listening to the prompts from the system, I wanted to pull my hair out. "WHY THE FUCK AM I SO LUCKY RIGHT NOW?!" After an 30 minutes from going mentally insane, I finally calmed myself and put everything away and went to sleep. The items that I received are sort of overkill for counter measures, so I didn't think about a plan.
----------------------------------------
The next day before the sun rose, I woke up much earlier than I have before because I wanted to practice the manual to be able to store my items so I don't catch a lot of attention. I sat crossed legged on my bed and started to read the manual, there are 8 major breakthroughs before you could master it, after I finished reading I practiced cracking open the void between my wrist and inserting a pebble, then close it before reopening it to take the pebble out until it was time for the servants to start doing their work. I am capable of storing items up to the size of a coffin, I stored my items before putting on my uniform and heading towards William's study room.
Along the way I looked around and saw other servants staring at me with jealousy, I don't know why they would feel jealousy towards me. Out of all the servants, I had the most pitiful story. They all chose to work here and they can return home to visit their family while I have to stay within the gates of this manor. After I started to think that way, I slowly started to feel hatred. Before I could lose control of my emotions, I had realized that I arrived at the study room of Oswold. I took a deep breath before knocking. After about 5 seconds, I heard a middle-aged voice in the room say, "Come in." I gently opened and closed the door before bowing the middle-aged man, William, who sat at his desk frowning as he looked at documents.
After 30 minutes later, William finished with the few documents on his table before he gestured to me to sit down at the chair infront of his desk. I walked over and bowed before taking a seat, as I sat down I thought to myself, "Wow, for someone who hates him, I sure do show a lot of respect... Am I perhaps mental?" As I was thinking that, Oswald took out a document that had 2 finger prints from blood on it before saying, "This is the document that bounds you to being a servant of me." I looked at him at him with a questioning look as if saying, "What about it?" He laughed at it before saying, "I'm going to be retiring in 6 more days, and I don't know what kind of person the next city lord will be. I forcefully made you a servant because I was lonely, my wife and son had passed away after a bandit attack on a business trip. So when that servant boy told me about you and your exotic looks, I felt possessive that I must obtain you. But after getting a notice that I'm going to be swapped with a new city lord, I started to think about all my decisions. Out of all the decisions I've made, forcing you who had lived a normal, peaceful life to become a servant of mine and raping you, was the worse decision I have made... I'm sorry for what I have done, I can't change the past nor will I say sweet words. As a token of my apology, I'm going to let you be free citizen." After he finished, he ripped apart the document and burned it with fire magic. I stared in shock for a moment before I started crying and asked, "I'm finally free?" As I asked that question with a face full of tears, William simply smiled before nodding.
