—————————————————————

Once you were at the top, the strongest, most fearsome of them all. Wherever you went you invoked fear and order. You were a true imperial assassin, one not all may have completely heard of, but still completely scared of.

However, times had changed. You had started to grow weaker. Despite all your abilities, skills, and the brilliant mind you had, your body gave up on you. Deemed to start being useless, you were to be executed. You understood it was part of your destiny falling ill that badly, yet you still did your best to avoid that exact fate.

Somewhere in the mountains, near the imperial city, you lived in a humble home away from sight. Peacefully, you had decided to live out the last of your life there.

"There you go," you chimed in happily as you cleaned your sword. It was your one and most trusted partner after all, you wanted to take good care of it despite not being used in battles anymore— I mean who says you can't use it to chop down other things anyways.

Standing up, you placed your sword in your room. With that done, all of your chores for the day were good.

"Everyday since I left... I didn't expect it to be so... peaceful?" Muttering as you laid on your bed, you started reminiscing about your past. The glorious moment of your body's peak, however, it wasn't always that. You were an assassin, you killed people.

Sighing, you turned around. "I wonder if I should visit some friends. Hope they're still alive—well I don't think all of them are dead yet," you joked.

As night fell, you closed your eyes and hummed to yourself. "I should probably catch some fish for tomorrow."

As silence overtook your home, rattles and steps were heard outside of it. Around the bushes hid some presence, one you were immediately awoken because of.

Guarded, you grabbed your weapon and stood there checking who this presence was.

'None of my traps notified me. Who's this person?' Worried a talented killer may have trespassed your home, you stood near your door, peaking out carefully.

"My~ Have I finally found you?" Spoke a calm and mature voice.

Your heart skipped a beat. You knew who owned this voice and it was one of your best friends.

"Esdeath!" You cheered and gave her a surprised reaction. "What are you doing here?"

"Am I not welcome?" The blue haired woman asked you in an uncharacteristically gloomy tone. It worried you as to why she was acting like this.

Deciding to listen to her possible concerns, you invited her to your home.

'It's a good thing I cleaned the room today.'

"Do you want to talk inside?"

Nodding at your question, you invited her to your home. It wasn't like it was a big house or had any sections besides the bath, so instead, you let her sit on your bed, the only comfortable thing at the place.

"I don't really have anything fancy here but my bed is comfy. I'll go get you a glass. Just a moment," you told her.

In all honesty, you were a bit worried. Was your room clean enough, were your house designed nice enough, is it comfortable? You unexpectedly got worried over these things.
