Volu 3 Chapter 152: Drinking at Ho for the First Ti (1/2)
“Boss. Your skills are really suited to be an assassin.” [Fei]
After working alongside the slis and cleaning up the scene, Fei suddenly said that.
“What do you an?” [Ryouma]
“I an you have a lot of skills that are needed to be an assassin. Although, being strong is good, just being strong isn’t enough to be an assassin.” [Fei]
So I guess there are more important stuff to an assassin than us strength.
“Back when thugs were causing problems for us at the store, you left so dicine at the store then, rember? You must have so knowledge on dicine and poison then. Knowledge on those are really important to assassins. And awhile ago you used the slis to clean up the scene. Cleaning up the corpses, the clothes and weapons covered in blood… Those are all important too. Also, the way you walked before the fight, the way you hid… Everything was really well done.” [Fei]
While he was saying that, he suddenly realized sothing.
“My bad. Your skills aren’t just suited to be an assassin, you’d make for a really good assassin.” [Fei]
“Ahh…” [Ryouma]
I think he’s trying to praise .
“I’ve mostly gotten used to the language here, but from ti to ti, I still make mistakes.” [Fei]
“It’s another country’s language, after all. It can’t be helped…” [Ryouma]
I also had to deal with a foreign company myself in my past life. The language barrier then was really painful.
Especially, when I had to chat with the foreigners outside of work.
Right. Speaking of language…
“By the way, that magic you used a while ago. Was that Zilmar Empire magic?” [Ryouma]
“You an ‘Ien’? It’s a poison-type spell. It ans ‘smoke’.” [Fei]
So it really was the sa ‘Smoke’ spell as this country’s. The only difference is the word used.
I asked about it so more, and as it turns out, Fei-san can use poison spells and wind spells a little. Creating a smoke screen, hiding his body, and killing people from inside the smoke is apparently his favorite trick.
When we cleaned the scene, I noticed that the corpses he killed from inside the smoke were finished off with a single stab in between the gaps of their armor. Also, the first four people he killed were killed with the use of non-glossy poisonous needles. He killed eight people with just one hit each.
…His thods are unscrupulous, but he neutralized them so quickly that he actually reminded of the protagonist of a certain ga.
“I only chanted out loud to get the enemy’s attention. Normally, I would cast my spells without saying anything.” [Fei]
“Chantless Casting?” [Ryouma]
Casting spells quietly… I’ve tried practicing it myself in my spare ti, but not only are the odds of success lower, the resulting effects are also weaker. It’s not at a level that I can use in battle just yet… I wonder if he’d mind teaching so tricks…
“Oh, we shouldn’t be standing here talking.” [Ryouma]
My house is just over there. There’s no reason to stay outside so much.
I collapsed the cliff with my earth magic and opened the entrance to my old house.
“Ho… So this is your old house.” [Fei]
Fei-san seed impressed as he entered the house.
“Ahh… This is so nostalgic. It’s dusty, though…” [Ryouma]
I hear houses not lived in age quickly, but the entrance was blocked, so this old house of mine hasn’t changed much. It’s exactly as I left it before. The only thing that’s really changed is that it’s dusty now. And sohow, there’s a spider’s nest on the ceiling. I wonder where they ca in from.
Well, if this is all that’s changed, then a little help from my slis should bring everything back to condition.
For the anti, I quickly cleaned one room so we could have a room we could rest at.
“That should do it.” [Ryouma]
The sticky slis, the poison slis, the acid slis, the heal slis, the scavenger slis, and the cleaner slis… The slis that lived here before seed as if they could rember their ti here in the past, as they freely crawled along the places they usually crawled before.
It might be because we just ca from a fight, but it’s so peaceful and relaxing right now.
We have lots of food, and the slis are probably already full for the day.
So we can just take our ti and relax.
I prepared so drinks and so light snacks, then I asked about chantless casting again.
“If you want to use a spell with chantless casting, then the most important thing is to keep using that spell. You should first start by learning how to hide your body and use your weapon, then get used to poison and dicine. You can gain experience that way and still continue your training. After doing that I was able to do it. Until then I didn’t really use spells much in assassinations. dicines and tools are much more important. I don’t specialize in magic, so it’s hard to give advice.” [Fei]
I see… So, what about poison and dicine then? Speaking of poison, that poison he used on those needles and those truth serum he used on those thugs before… Just where did he get those anyway?
“Concocting your own poison and dicine is the basics of basics. You pay us and give us holidays, so I either buy the ingredients off the stores in town or gather them from outside. In our line of work, we have to go to various territories, so we know a lot about using different herbs to concoct dicine. Thanks to that, we can still sowhat make our potions even in this country.” [Fei]
