Lith stopped as he reached in front of the goons. He glanced at them and then turned to the owner, who still lay on the ground with a dumbfounded expression.
Things seed to have happened a little too fast, as he was too shocked. He couldn’t believe it, so he just stayed in his position. Lith snapped his fingers and brought the owner’s attention to himself. He said to him in a neutral tone,
“Next ti such a thing happens, make sure you tear your ergency slip and call for an official over here. Don’t go around believing people or bickering with them.”
The owner nodded his head and said hurriedly with tears in his eyes, “y-yes… I will do just that. T-thankyou g-good sir.”
Lith removed Mokil’s phone from the ring he was wearing. He attempted to open it but discovered that it was locked. He couldn’t figure out how to open the lock and thus gave up.
‘Alright, since this won’t work, I’ll just have to do it the other way.’ Lith thought to himself and put Mokil’s phone back in the ring.
He walked towards the owner and took out a pen and paper from his ring. He tossed it to the owner and said in a neutral tone, “write your bank details and your na on this paper.”
The owner was confused and had no idea what Lith was asking him about. Nevertheless, he didn’t question him and simply wrote the details and gave him.
Lith didn’t seem like these goons to him and seed the exact opposite to the owner. Lith radiated an aura of royalty, and his elegant deanor naturally chard the owner.
As a result, the owner assud Lith wouldn’t scam him like these goons and quietly divulged his bank details. Lith was also his savior, so he didn’t seem to mind and provided the information without questions.
Lith took the note from the owner, took a photo of it and dialed a number on his phone. After a few seconds of ringing, the call got connected and a calm and neutral voice rang out from the other side, stating,
“Do you need sothing, Your Highness?”
“Yes, Miss Hecate. I am sending you the details of two people. One’s net worth is to be transferred to the other. But please ensure it’s done in such a way that it’s not traceable and is anonymous.” Lith said to Hecate on the call.
“Thank you, Miss Hecate.”
“His Highness is too polite.”
Lith cut off the call and did not respond to Hecate’s polite words. If he let her be, Hecate would go on and on about how polite he was. He had no idea why she said this, but since he couldn’t change her habits, he simply thanked her and hung up.
…
Greenville city, Rafflesia.
At the top floor of a big pointy tower, a lady in purple robes and a black pointy hat sat on her chair, staring at the phone in her hand. It was Hecate, waiting for Lith’s ssage.
“I wonder why the prince is always so polite with . We are just doing business. There isn’t any need for such things. He’s bound to rise to the top ranks eventually. I wonder if he will be this polite at that ti too.” Hecate’s thoughts drifted as she awaited for the ssage from Lith.
Buzz!
Her phone buzzed, and she received the details from Lith. She used this information and worked on her laptop present in front of her. It didn’t take her long to finish this job, as such things were a trivial matter for her.
After finishing her job, she laid back on her chair and was in her own thoughts. A few monts passed, and she snapped out of her thoughts and muttered,
“Why did I even go through the hassle of making him an Athyst Card Holder? Tsk, Hecate, you ssed up. Thankfully, too much ti hasn’t passed. I can still inform her and make the corrections.”
Hecate picked up her phone and dialed a number. A few seconds later, the call got connected and a lodious voice rang out from the other side, stating,
“It’s rare for you to call like this. Do you need sothing, Hecate?”
“No. I am just calling to inform you that the prince joined Scelestus and completed his first mission right now.” Hecate said in a neutral tone.
“Hmm? He joined Scelestus?” The person said from the other side.
“That’s right. It was done yesterday. I made him an Athyst Card Holder. Sigh, I forgot I could’ve just inford you about it and wouldn’t have had to go through such a hassle. Anyway, that’s pretty much why I called you.” Hecate replied.
“Hahahaha… you worry too much. I got it. I’ll keep this in mind. Thanks.”
“No problem.” Hecate said, and cut the call.
“Phew. It’s good that I inford her quickly.” Hecate said to herself and laid back in her chair once again.
…
Poor Man’s district, Kezro city.
“Check your phone.” Lith said to the owner as he left the restaurant.
The owner was about to do as Lith had asked when,
*BURST*
The bodies of the goons present in the restaurant bursted, dying the nearby vicinity of where they were present with a shade of blood red. Organs, bones and blood were splattered everywhere around and even the owner of the restaurant got dyed with a shade of red.
The owner was shocked by the scene, but his phone buzzed in his pants pockets before he could react. The buzzing of his phone reminded him that Lith had asked him to check his phone. He checked it and burst into tears within seconds.
His gaze shifted to the exit of the restaurant. With tears dripping and mixing with the blood on his face, he said sobbing, “t-th-thankyou.”
…
Lith was walking along the streets of the Poor Man’s district after finishing his first assassination mission. He was planning on first watching the target and then doing an assassination later, like the assassins he saw in the movies.
Lith was not only skilled with the sword, spear, bow, and gauntlets, but also with guns. He wanted to recreate those movie scenes where people lay on a building’s rooftop and carry out sniper assassinations. But, alas, things rarely go as planned, and he was forced to improvise in the end.
While walking, he thought to himself, ‘now that I’ve done a mission, I wonder what I should do. I don’t even know anything about these places, and wandering alone is dangerous. I also don’t think Relz Khiv will be available anyti soon.
Anyway, I will be inford about him by the people hopefully, so I should just go back to the academy for now. I am still just a rank 2 and roaming around like this is dangerous.’
Lith took out his phone and once again called Hecate to pick him up and take him to the academy. She arrived within a few monts and Lith was then teleported back to his dorms.
…
Next day.
Lith’s dorm, Abalax sky island.
After getting dressed, Lith freshened up and walked down to the ground floor. He hadn’t been to any classes in two days and was planning to do so now. As soon as he arrived, he noticed Ralph sitting on the couch, sipping tea and dressed casually.
Ralph was wearing a loose white sweatshirt, gray sweatpants, and black flip-flops. His pink hair was tied in a ssy bun and his eyes, a darker shade of pink than his hair, were focused on the tea he was drinking.
Lith walked towards him and sat on the opposite couch and asked while pouring tea from the teapot laid on the table into his cup,
“You aren’t attending classes today?”
“No. Yesterday teacher inford I can’t go out of the dorms for a week. This is the punishnt for violating the rules.” Ralph said in a neutral tone.
Lith agreed with a nod of his head. He had completely forgotten about Ralph’s situation because of his hectic schedule for the previous two days. Everything kept him busy, from having to go on a date to carrying out an assassination mission. He hadn’t realized it until now. He sipped his tea and said to Ralph,
“It seems teacher influenced things a bit. Violating a rule results in an expulsion right away but you’re just grounded for a week, haha.” Lith said and chuckled.
Ralph put a rare smile on his face and nodded. They both were grateful for having such a wonderful teacher for them. The two continued to sip tea, and a few monts later, Dennis arrived. This ti, he was walking calmly and was in no hurry.
“You’re early today, Dennis. What changed?” Lith asked Dennis, who reached them and sat beside Ralph.
Dennis poured himself so tea and said to Lith calmly, “Your highness, I’ve learnt the truth of the world. The early bird gets the worm first and getting inspired by this proverb, I have started to sleep early and wake up early.”
