Infinite Mana in the Mage Academy

Chapter 14 14 || Behind The Scene

One day ago-

Inside Secret Assassin Organization-

Calling it a secret is a bit of a stretch, every local in this area would know its presence. Even the lord of this town knows about it.

There are many reasons why they aren't hunted down, but nobody cares about it now.

Allen waited at the desk. A young beautiful girl in her twenties stood smiling at him.

"Who's your target, sir?"

She said with a smile that made the words come out of her eerier like she didn't care about the life of anyone.

"Hina Liyer."

"Oh. A girl."

Her eyes stretched a bit, but a mischievous smile soon covered it.

"Did she give you enough problem to the extent that you are willing to assassinate her?"

"Not really."

Allen was really calm. He didn't give a damn about the woman and her scary words. Allen wasn't a typical 19 years old guy. To sum up his both lives age, it would cross 50.

And her flirtatious move just as showing her cleavage and wearing tight clothes that show the outline of her breast. And a skirt that suited her, and made her sexier.

She was a man magnet.

Well, that's her job to entertain the guest. And showing these figures attracts more men even to come here just to pass time since this is a part-time tavern.

A branch of the Secret Assasin Organization.

Allen took a sip of tea that was offered to him.

"I want to just scare her with the assassin and save her like a hero."

"Huh...?"

The woman's eyes widen in surprise. She really didn't expect that.

'Hiring assassin just to show yourself as a hero... Who does this thing in this age?'

She was dumbfounded.

Rarely, no, it would be the first task someone has given to scare off other parties just to show off yourself as mighty.

In a sense, it is a stupid idea.

Not only hiring an assassin requires a huge amount of money that only rich people have, it also is a stupid thing to do.

Rich flaunt money to attract girls, and she was no expectation. If someone offers her 1 million gold coins monthly, she wouldn't mind marrying that guy.

But keep one thing in mind, that much money took even 1 month even for city lord to earn it.

Leaving useless topics aside, no one really wants to scare a girl just to get the girl.

If they find out about this, the man would get charged with more hatred than they had got love.

The woman gently rub her chin and smiled cheerfully.

'It is interesting.' "So, you want to play the role of both villain and the hero."

"Yes."

Allen said without batting an eye to her. How much she tries to attract him, he didn't give her the grass.

'Fufu... How interesting. He isn't even caring about me. He must really like that girl.'

She clearly misunderstood Allen's intention but also got it right in a sense.

They both shook their hands to confirm the contract. Allen paid Fifty Thousand golds unwillingly. He spat a mouthful of blood as he had to let go of his money. Like couples, who doesn't want to part away with each other.

The woman smiled like a hunter who just got her prey. She bowed her head, and Allen left.

All the things such as choosing a place, time, and information, all will be decided by the organization. And they will inform Allen before taking action.

One day passed, and they got the perfect place and time. Before taking action, Allen was informed.

So, he hide and waited.

The assassins did their task splendidly and scared Hina to the point where her body trembled like a puppy.

"Someone... please save me!"

Allen didn't expect her to call for help. But he smiled and jumped.

He just used little force, and the assassin understood their part. The one assassin who got touched by the force flew away by himself and hit the tree and spat fake blood.

Others did the same, and they both ran away.

The script was written splendidly, the actor performed the act splendidly, and the movie will get an oscar.

Under the pretense of accompanying her home, Allen invaded her heart and successfully took down her general soldier.

And it was turned for the commander, minister, and finally, the queen to conquer.

As they walked under the red sun that was going to set, they both kept quiet. The atmosphere wasn't awkward, instead, it seemed to be sweet.

Hina held Allen's arm and with his support, she reached the academy.

"Hina!"

Just as they reached the academy, Ken shouted. He ran toward Hina and stopped mid-away. His eyes fell on the hand of Hina who is grabbing the arm of Allen.

He furrowed his brows. He looked at Allen like a guy whose girlfriend just got stolen from him

"I-I didn't know... you two had this kind of... relationship."

He said with a shaking voice. He wanted them to decline.

"No no!"

Hina immediately swayed her hand with a red face.

"I was attacked by assassins. And he saved me... And accompany me here."

She said softly with a hint of fear in her voice.

"What?!"

Hearing that, Ken ignored the part of her holding his hands and immediately rushed over to Hina. He examined Hina's body to check whether she had got injured or not.

"Are you fine?! Did you get hurt?"

He spoke like a father who just saw his daughter coming home with injuries. Even if the situation was different, the reaction is the same.

"I am fine. If it wasn't for the senior to come at the time... I couldn't have got the opportunity to witness this beautiful sunset."

"Thank god."

He breathes a sigh of relief. He immediately grabbed Hina's hand and pulled her over like an overprotective brother who is also a siscon.

"Ah!"

She felt the lingering warmth of Allen's arm. A feeling of disappointed swarm her heart, but she shook her head to forget about it.

Ken gently took Hina. Before going, he bowed down to Allen. "Thank you for saving her."

His gratitude seems sincere but mixed with anger and jealousy. Without waiting for Allen's response, he took Hina to her room.

"Haah. That was amusing."

He remembered his expression of Hina. He was a step ahead closer to his quest.

"Playing the part of both villain and the hero is quite funny."

He chuckled. Hiring assassins himself and also saving the target himself. And his act...

"I should have got an oscar for that!"

He sighed with a bit of disappointment. If he had the talent of acting in his previous life, maybe his life would have changed.

With a small dark smile, Allen proceeds to his room.
