The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World



"Come out right this instant, I have no idea how you got there but you better get out," shouted the guard who was on the other side of the door.

Aiden hearing this confirmed his thoughts from earlier that Maelis had indeed told no one about him being there.

Then, a weird interaction happened between the guards and Aiden when he noticed that Aiden was leaning on a wall waiting not even caring about what was happening.

Aiden then explained to the guards what happened, but they simply didn't believe him. He didn't want to take any risk since he would lose his job if he let the person in front of him do what he wants.

But then, the guard asked for Aiden's name wanting to know more about this person who has a certain connection with the matriarch.

"Aiden," he said once again not revealing his last name since he knew that it would become dangerous for him.

As Aiden finished pronouncing his name, the guard who was interrogating him was shocked as his eyes almost popped out of his eyelids.

"Wait are you the guy who finished first in the parkour? The Aiden?" asked the guard, his tone completely shifting as he was now looking excited.

It was as if he was looking at some kind of legend.

Not knowing how to respond, he replied shyly. "Y-yes, that's me why?"

"Well, everyone knows about you! You even beat a descendant of the Everheart, just who wouldn't know about you."

Hearing the words, made Aiden think as he didn't know that the little challenge he did before leaving had left such an impact on the people inside the family.

But Aiden was still confused as to why the guard simply believed his words, not even doubting them at all.

However, he didn't want to ask the guard why as he would probably make this conversation longer for no reason, as he simply wanted to go see Maelis at this moment since he had some questions for her.

He wanted to get in contact with one of the four founding families after all which was sure to be a hard task.

Not wanting to waste too much, he decided to cut this conversation short asking the guard about where Maelis was at the moment.

He also needed to decide about going back to the Slums to meet the maid or not since she would be alerting the main family about his disappearance.

There were many things to do and he obviously didn't have much time to think about all of those.

But, the guard didn't hold him and simply started guiding him toward the office of Maelis.

After walking for a bit, the guard started knocking on the door in front of him.

The same door that Aiden had seen the last time that he was here.

"Sorry, to interrupt you Madam, but a certain Aiden wants to meet you," said the guard who was clearly respecting the privacy of the matriarch inside this room.

As soon as the guard finished his sentence, the door in front of him opened right away and he saw Maelis peeking her head clearly in search of the person he had just mentioned.

The look on her face was obviously one of worry as she still had no idea what had happened to Aiden in the second trial, she simply hoped that he didn't lose too much of his levels and statistics in it.

The thought that he had actually accomplished the trial alone didn't even cross her mind as she was sure that he had failed.

Even if she had seen his potential, she knew that difference between the first and second trials would be quite hard for some people to adapt.

After all, the two trials didn't have anything in common. 

In fact, the second trial was considered the first real trial as it embodied the type of trial that would come after it.

But then, as she looked around she noticed the figure of Aiden which didn't look as frail as before with some of his muscles being defined since he was lean.

His appearance had obviously gotten much better since he had put three points of Charm into it, but it didn't make Maelis blush or even react as she was used to seeing such beauty in her daily life.

Sure Aiden looked better than most with his brown hair and brown eyes. His chiseled face also complimented his looks, one thing for certain he didn't get weaker in his second trial, or else his looks would have been downgraded and not upgraded.

After observing Aiden up and down, she quickly dismissed the guard and quickly let Aiden enter as she wanted to know more about the second trial and what he had to do since trials would always differ depending on the person.

She quickly gave him a chair and started shooting questions at a speed that was impossible to answer.

"What happened there?"

"What were your rewards?"

"Wait, before that what was your <Trial Objective>?"

"Did you manage to kill the boss?"

Aiden didn't even have the time to answer her but she continued not even noticing it.

It seemed she was a little too excited seeing Aiden once again and she was also happy that he had cleared his second trial, an accomplishment that she deemed impossible.

Aiden not knowing what to do simply started talking calmly trying to calm her down.

"Please relax, I will tell you everything that you want but before that shouldn't we discuss where we left off last time? Shouldn't we talk about whether or not I will be joining this family?" said Aiden, ignoring her past questions and bringing an important subject to the table.

Right before she opened, her mouth he added a little comment, "And just so you know my worth has increased..."

He knew that what he had just accomplished wasn't a small feat and that Maelis would have to give him many resources as she didn't want to go to other families.

Hell, even high-level families would be interested in his talent. After all, it was the first time that someone had completed a trial by themselves.
