The Assassin and The Blind Saint

Arc 2 Chapter 12: Dating

The next day, I got a day off for the week for successfully completing the two missions that the chairman had given me.

What am I going to do for today huh…?

To be honest, I don't have any plans. I think I took a walk through the city this morning. It's my first holiday since I became a Patrol Guard so I don't know what to do right now.

After changing into clothes, I then walked out of my inn located near the city park. Outside the inn, it was seen that the streets began to be crowded by pedestrians. Luxury horse-drawn carriages were also passing through the streets.

Apparently, the city's condition has become normalized again after a rebel attack on the Museum a few days ago.

Walking towards the culinary district, I intend to get breakfast there. Once there, the smell of mixed food began to smell. It is seen that many residents of the city also come to this place for breakfast to start their activities today.

I was a little too tired to eat the doughnuts we used to buy on duty.

Maybe I'll find something new. But I felt someone approaching me. After finding out he had no intention to kill, I then just kept quiet waiting for what that person would do.

Suddenly, my eyes went dark. I then smelled a refreshing perfume. A gentle touch of this... a woman, right?

“Hey~ guess who I am?” I heard the woman talking. A pretty familiar voice.

“Nona Mirela?” After I said her name, she then released her hand that closed my eyes and stepped before me.

“Master Sirius is boring once..at least guess wrongly once or twice to be interesting this game.” He said it with a frown.

No, if I guess wrongly, there you'll be even more angry than this. I've understood this woman's trick because it is often done by Nightingale who always teases me every chance.

“What is Miss Mirela doing here alone?” Hearing my question, he smiled.

“Ahh. Mom and Dad are away while Milo—My sister is playing with her friends.” After she said that, she suddenly approached me and then held both of my hands. “Hey Mr Sirius~ would like to accompany me for breakfast? You promised at that time you know.”

If it's not wrong, I did say that when I turned down his offer the other day. We'll do it another time.

“Good.” Hearing my answer, he looked very happy. “Where are we going?” my many.

“Follow me. I know a great place compared to breakfast in this noisy place.”

I followed him from behind. Not long after, he turned back around and looked even more annoyed than before. He then pulled my arm and we started walking hand in hand.

Uhhh. women are troublesome. Why should they always be concerned about trivial things.

As the two of us walked hand in hand, I saw Senior Hans and the Vice Chairman walking together in one of the City alleys.

What are they both doing? Daily patrol, huh? The Vice Chairman replaced me as Senior Hans' partner.

We then arrived at a place that had an open field. There are some people preparing a street drama show. We sat down at a table with an umbrella on it and ordered our breakfast.

“What show will they play, Miss Mirela?”

“Ahh... I guess the battle of Limburg that occurred a few weeks ago between the Alliance forces faced the Demon King Forces in the Kingdom of Thuringia.”

Miss Mirela knows quite a lot about this. Could it be because it was told by Mr Radolf?

“This show will illustrate the Heroic Candidates and Saint Magdalene exterminating those demons and motivating the alliance troops who are being distressed.” Hearing that name, made me imagine what he was doing right now.

“Mr Sirius?” Looking at me who looked dreamy, Miss Mirela called out to me.

“Ahh... Sorry, what does Miss Mirela know about the Saint?” Miss Mirela then seemed to be recalling something.

“Rumor says, she has a face as beautiful as Goddess Athena herself. He is very good and always gives a smile to make the citizens in the capital many who idolize him.” Hearing Miss Mirela's words, both sides of my lips then felt up.

“Nona Mirela, the value of a woman should not be in the value of her outward physical beauty, but the beauty that is in the heart of the woman.” Hearing my words, Miss Mirela was seen blinking her eyes. His expression looked shocked.

“What's up, Miss Mirela?”

“Ah no, I did not expect a man like Sir Sirius to be able to say such a nice thing to a woman.” He said it a little embarrassed.

What kind of man do you think I am?

“I think, Mr. Sirius is a insensitive and ignorant person who does not understand the feelings of women.” He said it like he could read my mind.

“Haahh... It is true, I heard that word from a friend of mine.” Lena's been lecturing me about this before.

Our breakfast then arrived. They gave me an egg placed on a loaf of crispy meat and a somewhat larger piece of meat. I think they named this food Egg Benedict. We ate our breakfast while enjoying the drama that was in front of us.

A man was watching a white-haired woman singing. They are facing some monsters played by people who wear funny costumes.

From the scene that has been shown, is Lena able to perform Divine Buff magic?

We finished our meal when the drama was over. Not long after, a man with a face full of make up came over to us.

“Master and Miss are here, are you guys enjoying our show?” The man said that while thrusting us a hat.

“Of course, your show is very good. Will you do it again later?” miss Mirela asked while giving some Shilling to the man.

After I looked carefully at the man's face, there were some cuts on his face.

“Of course Miss is beautiful, even if we can meet again tomorrow.” After saying those strange words to Miss Mirela, she then left.

“What does it mean that we can meet again?” muttered Miss Mirela. “By the way, aren't those Heroes so cool? Every woman at least once wanted to be saved by a valiant Hero you know.”

Hearing Miss Mirela's words, I then remembered my ideals of wanting to become a Hero. But now look at me, trying to atone for my sins against those I have killed is the opposite of a Hero who always saves many lives.

“Mr Sirius, is there a plan later tonight?”

“I don't think, today I happen to get a holiday.”

“Will Sir Sirius come to Hollande Theatre? all my family will be attending the theater at 7pm tonight.” Miss Mirela offered me a ticket in her hand.

“Of course, I've never visited a theater before.” Hearing my reply, Miss Mirela looked very pleased.

“Alright, we'll meet later tonight. I have to go first to pick up my sister.” Miss Mirela then stood up. “Thank you for accompanying me to breakfast, Mr. Sirius. See you later tonight~ .” He smiled and waved his hand at me.

***

Moments after Sirius and Mirela split up, a man wearing makeup and a scar on his face they had met earlier walked into an alley in the city. He met some people to prepare their plans later tonight.

“Have you met the connection the cloaked man spoke of?” ask the man.

“Yes, he said, he will disguise us as members of Patrol Guard who will guard the theater,” replied the male colleague.

“Alright, we'll just take the sword there. If we use Ludger, the sound of his shot will only create a lot of attention.” Hearing the man's instructions, his comrades then nodded.” All right, we have to succeed in killing the entire Radolf family later tonight.”
