Adam took back the clothes he had taken off and put them on immediately and walked towards the door and peeked out.
“They're right – right go?” Leathina now also peeked out with Adam.
“Yes, they've gone you're safe for now. Then take care of yourself well – well not to get caught I will be right – right go now.”
“Eh, where are you going?”
“I'll be back.”
“You're going to leave me?”
“Aren't you the one who won't come with me, Lea.”
“About it.”
“You want to go with me?” seeing Leathina bewildered and hesitant – hesitates to answer makes Adam want to offer her back whether he wants to come with her or not.
There is no answer from the question, Leathina still has not answered Adam because confused decided to come or not.
“Alright, if you don't want to come then I'll go now.”
“Wait well, I'll come.”
Adam had already gone for a long walk because he had waited for a response from Leathina, but when he had gone Leathina soon caught up with him and followed him.
The two travel together, though, first – first they both rode a horse carriage containing cargo of goods – goods to be sent out of town after approximately a day traveling they both then went to an inn to take two horses to ride and return to continue their journey.
“Adam, is it still far?”
“No, we'll be there soon.”
“We are now at the border of the kingdom is not, and here not many people who live I only see only a few houses that are inhabited.”
“You're right, this is an abandoned village. Villagers here mostly move to a safer place because at the border there are often attacks by bandits and monsters here.”
“Well we've arrived.”
Adam pointed to a mansion that looks very old, the courtyard is not maintained visible scrub and garbage where – mana but the road to the main door is still clean because it is often passed.
“You sure this is the place?”
“Yes, follow you will be surprised later after entering.”
“Trakk” The creaking of the door sounded very clear when Adam opened it, it was seen that the door was very old but still sturdy making it creak loudly.
“What is this place?” Leathina muttered softly after she saw the contents of the door opened by Adam.
It was seen that some people with their faces covered with wounds were gathering, then others were busy sharpening their swords plus the dim light that illuminated the mansion made Leathina cringe.
“Adam you've returned!” several people waved at Adam welcoming his return.
God, I seem to be getting into a snake's nest. How is this I have escaped from the pursuit of wild animals and instead entered the wrong place to hide.
“Come in.” Adam waved back, then pulled Leathina in who still looked confused at the door.
“Adam what place?”
“Oh, this is the headquarters of the assassins.”
“And you're one of them?”
“Yes, of course if it wasn't for what I came here.” Adam casually answered Leathina's question but asked instead Leathina broke out in a cold sweat knowing she had been a target of them and now she was inside the headquarters of the assassins.
“Iya right, you know yes?”
“Ah, looks like I'm in the wrong place Adam. After biting – remember back it looks like I have had my destination and now I will leave for there.” Leathina slowly – lands back and was about to leave the mansion.
“Eh, where are you going already here. Come on you have to enter first.”
“No, no, please let me go.”
Adam who saw Leathina's behavior immediately pulled her back forced to bring Leathina in while Leathina with all her strength refused to enter she held on to the door so that Adam could not take her.
“Gosh, you were like a child Leathina, you willingly came after refusing, I had no choice but to force you in, it's been a very dark day it's dangerous for you to roam here alone.” Adam raised Leathina, forcibly removed her grip and took her in and sat her in a chair.
“Oh, you brought Adam's toy. Share with us.” Arrived – just a few people walked towards Lethina and started crowding her.
“Do not use it if your hand does not want to be cut off, the boss asked me to bring it here.”
“Really? Too bad she's beautiful.” Hearing the words of Adam oarng – the person who had swarmed Leathina immediately left and no longer bothered her.
“What do you mean? How can your boss know me?” Leathina immediately interrogated after hearing what Adam said to her friend – friends.
“Hush! I lied so they wouldn't bother you.”
Adam whispered then blinked one eye a sign that he was just lying to scare – away the bullies.
“You can stay here until you find a new place, you can also join if you want to make money, this mansion is very old but still koko deliberately used as a headquarters because it is difficult to reach.”
“You want me to be a killer?”
“No, no, that's not what I mean.”
“So?”
“I only offer a temporary place for you, and you don't have to join us.”
“Why? Shouldn't only members be allowed in and out freely?”
“Actually I don't want to tell you about this but since you still keep asking I will tell you, didn't you ever save our leader? For that reason of course we will never refuse to help you, we owe you a favor, Miss Leathina?”
“From the beginning you knew me? From the beginning you were planning on taking me?” Leathina became very surprised when she heard Adam's words.
“No, really! I didn't have any intentions from the beginning. We met purely by chance, but after seeing the announcement paper spread I got to know you and found out that it was you after seeing your hair.”
Leathina did not reply to Adam's words she was busy looking at Adam with a suspicious look.
“You're upset Miss Lea?” seeing the way Leathina saw it Adam became a little guilty of not explaining to Leathina earlier.
“No, I am not angry however I must thank you Adam for helping me from the pursuit of the royal warrior.”
“Oh, yes and don't call me Miss Leathina, just call me as you usually call me.”
“Thank God, you're not mad at me.” Adam sighed softly after Leathina turned out not to be angry at him.
“But aren't you a nobleman, wouldn't you care if someone like me called you directly by your name?”
“Nothing – what, for now onwards I am just an ordinary person not a noble.”
Now that I have to forget my old life, I have to focus on starting a new life. I will live without resurfacing until my 25th birthday I wish they thought I was right – was lost or died after I disappeared long enough and I will live like what I want without being afraid of anymore.
Leathina's smile expands on her face, she looks very happy after being successfully detached from her family and the problems that continue to follow her.
