The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World



Seeing her leave, Aiden didn't go after her as he didn't want to relive the same exact scene once again.

Instead, he thought that it would be great for him to go to sleep.

He had stayed awake for quite a long time in the trial and it was starting to get to him as it started to become visible on his face.

But there was a problem, he still didn't know where he could sleep. 

Maelis hadn't told him if he could actually stay here or not.

Returning to the Slums wasn't really a problem but he still remembered about his maid and he didn't know if she had come or not yet.

Wanting to know where he would need to sleep, he started walking in the direction of Maelis's office.

But as he got closer, he started hearing the same voice as earlier, the voice of Emma who was talking to Maelis.

"Mom, I'm telling you, he's a bad guy he tried to touch my melons as soon as we were alone," she said completely lying to her mother.

"I don't think he's that type of person, what did he really do? And don't you dare lie to me again."

Aiden wasn't inside her office but she could feel that Maelis had become completely serious as the tone she was using wasn't anything like he had heard previously.

Aiden had never heard her sound like that and he hoped that he would never have to. 

Just her voice was scary, he couldn't imagine what would happen facing her directly.

"I-I just don't like him mom, can't you kick him out of the family? Aren't I good enough for you?"

"Kick him out of the family? Are you crazy, you don't understand his talent, how could you after all you only met him one time. I'm telling you he's special, he isn't like any other awakened that I met before, and just to make it clear," said Maelis as anger could clearly be felt in her voice.

"I will not kick him out of the family even if you ask me to. Yes, you're strong but with the two of you, I cannot even begin to imagine the benefits that we will have at the tournament."

Realizing that what she was asking of her was quite disrespectful, Emma bowed her head and left Maelis's office since she knew that her mother had made a decision and that she wouldn't be able to change it.

As she opened the door to leave, Emma immediately noticed Aiden who was right in front of it.

Her blush quickly returned to her face upon seeing him once again.

'How much did he hear?' thought Emma as she didn't want to make him her enemy.

He hadn't really done anything to her and she knew that her reactions from earlier were out of proportion.

Not wanting to talk to him, she ran a way just like earlier not even meeting the eyes of Aiden.

Then, Aiden stopped looking at her and focused on the person which was looking at him with a smile on her face.

"It seemed like you left quite the impression on my daughter," said Maelis with a smile.

"Did you like our conversation?" asked Maelis revealing that she knew that he had heard pretty much everything.

"Thank you for defending me, I'd say you were quite convincing," said Aiden, showing that he had indeed appreciated what she had just done.

"But why are you here, I don't remember calling you?" said Maelis showing that she was quite annoyed by his presence.

"I just had a question, where am I supposed to sleep?" 

"Did you really come here just to ask me such a thing?" asked Maelis not understanding how someone with so much talent could be as dumb as this.

"Yeah, do I have a room here or do I need to find a place for myself?"

"No, you won't need to, but you do know that we have maids pretty much all around this place at your disposal."

"Yes and?" said Aiden not understanding where she wanted to go with this.

"Then, why didn't you ask them where you had to stay?"

'Oh, yeah, she's right why didn't I do that?' thought Aiden as he also found what he had just done quite stupid.

"Either way, it doesn't matter follow me I'll show you your room. Don't worry, I'm sure you'll like it," she said as she gave him a quick wink.

Then, Aiden started following Maelis right behind her as she seemed to reach a place where there didn't seem much as he could see doors on both sides of the walls which made him remember his trial and the castle he had infiltrated.

But she didn't stop at one of the doors in this hall as she continued going forward and then she took a left where only a single door could be found.

"Little disclaimer before we enter, you'll have a roommate," said Maelis as she started giggling with a smile on her smile.

Aiden immediately thought about who that person could be, but he was almost sure that the roommate she was talking about was Emma, her daughter.

"Don't worry, I'm sure that your rommie will learn to accept you," said Maelis trying to reassure Aiden as he didn't seem to appreciate that he would have to live with someone else.

'Why the hell couldn't I get a room alone?' thought Aiden as he simply didn't want to deal with another person other than himself.

Then, Maelis opened the door slowly but no one could be seen. 

However, the sound of water running could be heard. 

It seemed like someone was in the shower.

"Come out of the shower quickly, you have a visitor," said Maelis as she didn't want to spend the entire day here.

As Maelis said that the water was stopped and the door of the bathroom opened.

"You?! Why am I seeing you so much?" she said as she opened the door and saw Aiden standing there inside her room.
