Reincarnated With The Undefeated System

The assassin rode the horse until they arrived at the community where the woman was residing...he still remembered the paths clearly.

"This is the community where she's residing". The assassin in front said to Asher.

"Okay, then let's head straight to her house". Asher voiced out.

..At that moment, he was just hoping no one recognizes him and begin calling his name since he was one of the high-ranked chiefs in this kingdom.

The assassin put the horse in motion once again as they began heading to the woman's house. Arriving in front of the building where the woman's room was situated, the assassin said to Asher,

"And her house is located in this building", He then pointed to a certain door and voiced out once again, "That's the door to her house".

And with that, all three of them came down from the horse. Then Asher uttered,

"Hope no one recognizes me since I'm one of the high-ranked chiefs in this kingdom".

"I don't think anyone is glancing directly at us currently, so I don't think they'll be able to recognize you". One of the assassins voiced out, the other one.

"Better". That was all Asher said.

The three of them began walking toward the door, and getting close to it, Asher glanced at the assassin that gave him advice and inquired,

"You sure this is her house, right?".

"Yes, very sure". The assassin responded.

"The both of you should keep a straight face then, don't look suspicious at all, and make sure your scabbards don't show just like how they are now. Until I reveal to her I am the one behind Aiden's capture, I don't want her to suspect anything".

The two assassins just nodded their heads to Asher's utterance. Then Asher strolled closer to the door and began knocking on it. He knocked on it about three times before the door was opened by the woman.

The moment the woman set eyes on Asher, her eyes widened a little as she voiced out, "Asher, one of the high-ranked chiefs in this kingdom? Why are you at my abode?".

Asher was surprised, he wasn't expecting that the woman would recognize him. That only means one thing, she knew him. Now, was it bad or good that she knew him concerning what he's come to ask of her?

"Yes, it's me, Asher, one of the high-ranked chiefs in this kingdom. I've come to ask you for a favor". Asher stated.

"Me?". The woman uttered with a kind of surprised expression on her face.

"Yes, you".

"Then I welcome you to my humble home, would you like to enter?". The woman inquired of Asher.

"Yes, I'll love to enter, thank you".

..And with that, the woman paved way for Asher as he stepped foot into the house.

What he wanted to discuss with her was something people shouldn't hear about, so it was best he enters her house. She sighted the two young men outside but had no idea they were assassins due to the way they were dressed.

She even uttered to them, "Aren't you both with him? Wouldn't you enter?".

"No, we are okay here". One of the assassins retorted with a bit of smile on his face.

Then the woman nodded her head a little before closing the door and strolling toward where Asher was standing. Then she said to him,

"You can sit".

"There's no need for that, I didn't come for a long time discussion. I just want us to discuss and agree on something quickly, then I'll leave. There's no need to sit down".

Glancing around the house and the building itself, Asher could tell that the woman wasn't financially stable truly. The inner house itself wasn't looking that good. But she was special 'cause she possesses a rare ability.

She'd most likely be easy to bribe, that was a very high probability.

"So, what favor have you come to ask for?". The woman inquired of Asher.

"I know you'll be coming to the palace soon to do some mind reading. You'll be reading the minds of the officials to know who was behind the capture of Ethan's son. You possess the mind-reading ability". Asher dropped the bombshell.

And the moment the woman heard Asher's utterance, a shocked expression appeared on her face...how did he know that? But in seconds, the expression on her face vanished. He was among the officials of this kingdom, and it was their minds she'd be coming to read soon, so he was supposed to be aware of it.

"Yes, that is true, one of the messengers of the king told me about it. And who am I not to do it for the king?". The woman stated.

Asher nodded his head a little then voiced out once again, "That is true, well, I have something to tell you".

"What is it?". The woman inquired with a bit of an inquisitive expression on her face.

"I am the one behind Aiden's capture, please, don't raise an alarm".

As known, Asher wasn't here to threaten the woman or something, he was here to plead, he was here to ask for a favor. Hurting her might not even work out 'cause since she possesses a rare minor ability, then she definitely possesses one of the main power elements.

And that was true, she possesses more than one affinity. And she could use them to a certain extent, she wasn't weak.

The woman was just glancing at Asher after those words flowed out of his mouth, she wasn't expecting it. An official capturing his fellow official's son? And worst of all, they were brothers? The woman was still glancing at Asher, and now, she had discerned something.

"And you've come to tell me not to expose you after reading through you guys' minds?". She didn't waste time voicing it out.

"Exactly, please, do this for me, I don't want the truth to get revealed, I don't want to die. After reading my mind, even if you find out something, please, don't expose it. Let it be that it was none of the officials that were behind what happened to Ethan's son". Asher pleaded.

"And why should I do this for you? I mean, you captured your fellow official's son, I don't know the reason for it. And according to what was happening, seems like you had plans of killing him".

"But he's still alive now, sound and healthy, I didn't kill him. Please, do this for me, I'll reward you greatly, I could change your life. I'll give you double the reward the king is gonna give to you. And I didn't come here empty-handed".

..The moment Asher made that last utterance, he dipped his hand into one of the pockets of his robe and brought out the bag of money.

Then he forwarded it to the woman and said, "Look, I brought a lot of money for you, lots of copper coins. This is just quarter of the rewards, I'll give you the rest after you've done what I'm telling you to do. Don't expose me after reading through my mind, do this for me".

The woman was just glancing at Asher, she had been swayed already, bribing her was definitely easy. She needed money, that's for sure, and this was a lot of money in front of her currently...and there was still more to come.

It wouldn't be bad to receive Asher's rewards and do what he was telling her to do and receive the king's rewards as well for reading through the minds of the officials and lying.

..Even if she says none of the officials were behind what happened to Aiden after reading through their minds, the king would still have to reward her for at least reading through their minds.

This was just nice, she'd have to accept Asher's rewards and cover up what he's done.

"Okay, I'm gonna do what you're telling me to do, I'm gonna cover up what you've done. But I'm expecting my full reward after I've done what you're telling me to do". She uttered.

"Definitely, you'll get your full reward, I promise. But after that day has passed, you must try to erase that thought from your head. Your mindset should be that I didn't capture Aiden at all, you should just forget about it. No one else must hear about it".

"That I promise".

And with that, Asher handed the bag of copper coins over to her. Opening the bag a little and glancing into it, these were the thoughts that ran through the woman's mind,

'Now, that's a lot of money there'.

"I'll see you at the palace, make sure not to expose me after reading through my mind, and you'll get your full reward". Asher said to the woman.

"That's a done deal". The woman stated.

..And with that, Asher strolled out of her house.
