"Done? Go to rest." Saber nods. He put away Granger's equipment before leave the room.
But before he leave, Granger stop him.
"Saber. Search the information of Lesley Vance for me. In one hour." He sits on his bed while undo his bow.
"Okay your highness." He bow, left.
Huwa! One hour? How cruel!!
Saber nearly have mental breakdown. Who the heck is this Lesley?
But then, he remember about the beautiful long magenta haired lady, which was being humiliated this morning. Ah, that one. He head to his room, taking 2 pages of paper, ink and quill pen.
Saber close his eyes before extracting the information he search. As he comes from future, he could search it. A while after, he saw the information and write it on the papers. He stop, finish.
It was 30 minutes after his master told him to do that. He feel relief. Fast, he walks towards Granger's room. He knock. After he heard the word come in, he entered.
"This is the information, your highness." He put the paper on the side desk. Granger was bandaging himself. He just finish his relaxing bath.
"Saber, help me bandage this. I want to read." Granger gives his bandage to Saber. He nods, before continue to bandage. Meanwhile, Granger was looking forwards to Lesley's information.
Adopted? How nice. Heterochromia? Okay. An assassin, who uses sniper. 20 years old? How young. Romantic relationship with Gusion Paxley? Wow. Just wow.
Then, the other information that seems necessary caught Granger's attention. He smirk.
"What's wrong, my lord?" Saber finish his job. He sigh, a bit tired.
"Nothing. You may leave now. We'll be going back home tomorrow morning." Saber nods and left.
After that, Granger put away her information. Somehow, Lesley Vance seems interesting. How he looking forward to meet her again.

"Be careful, okay? I'll be away for a while, take care babe." Gusion pat Lesley's cheek, who was reddened.
"Well, I should say the same to you, right? Be careful. Be back in one piece, okay?" She hugs her for the last time for today. Gusion will be out for his mission, and would be back for another 3 days.
"Haha, alright. I'll see you later." Gusion gives her a peck on cheek, before leave.
Lesley sigh. She would be all alone during this week. Thus, let's skip this boring part and head straight to next week.
Lesley then sigh, enter the carriage before head to the empire. It's a long way, she could even sleep for a while. Upon arrival, the princess herself escort her inside.
"I'm sorry for last week, Ms. Vance. I wasn't aware of him." The princess seems and feel very guilty, yet she is not the one who make Harith spilled some coffee to her.
"It's okay your highness. It's not your fault. I'm the one who should be considerate." Lesley smile. The princess then smile, excited.
"Alright. Good to hear that. Now, I'll lead you to your leader, the one that will be in charge as your partner. Come!" Lesley was a bit surprised to see the excited Silvanna. But, she follow her anyway.
Lesley could see someone in black coat— fuck. She knows him well! But before she could talk, the man looks at her with a grim gaze.
"Well, look who we have here! Hello Ms. Vance." He smirk under his long coat. He let out his hand to handshake, but Lesley looks at him with gross expression.
"What? Princess Silvanna, I didn't expect this rude—"
"I'm sorry for this, Lesley. But, this rude duke is the best marksman among our chevalier. I have no other choice rather than put you under his order." Silvanna cuts her words, leaving Lesley under stress. She nearly scream in anger. Gusion was already out for another mission, yet no one would ever comfort her if she want to smack this rude guy.
She hates him.
"How much you'll give me if I work under his order?" Lesley grip her rifle tightly. She really needs this work, before she meet Harley for his semester break.
"Oh, that will be a good price, Ms. Vance. I will give you..." Slowly, the princess whisper to her ears. Lesley gasped. Wow. That's too much.
"Okay." She smile, before she glance towards Granger. The man surely smile mischievously under his coat. Fuck.
"Well, I'll call you Lesley from now on." He was still waiting for her to shake his hands. Gross at his attitude, Lesley shake his hand within 0.1 seconds. She then folds her arm to her chest, gross.
"I'll call you duke—"
"Call me Granger." He looks at her with his intimidating eyes. Yet, Lesley find it gross. She nearly throw out if she didn't look away.
"Fine. Now, what's my first mission?" She brings her hair backwards.
"I'll leave you two alone, okay?" Silvanna chuckles before left them.
Lesley give him a glare. She was a bit regret to just accept this work.
"Follow me." Granger ordered. Lesley nods.
He then lead her to his carriage. What? Carriage?
Wait. Do I need to follow him to his region for work? Oh my, so annoying!
Lesley already cursed in silent, yet she keeps calm. As long as she get a better payment, it should be okay.
"Let's go."

"So, what we are doing in your estate?" Lesley begins to feel chills along her spine. It was a sore trip, it's not that far from the empire actually.
"I'm going to test your ability." He lead her to one of his practice room. Lesley was impressed. It was big, dark and horror. It suits her liking.
"Okay. Bring it on." She refill her ammo. Granger just smirk.
"Saber, start it."
Lesley aims towards the red dot on the mark. It was moving quite fast, but it's easier. She already shot a lot of things that were faster than this.

FiveGranger seems impressed. This lady passed her test easily.
"Done. Anything that I can shoot?" She seems eager. Granger laugh at her behavior.
"Haha. You impressed me. Most of my partner failed at the first try. I found you amusing. Come, it's the last test." He bring her to another room.
It was quite confined, dark. Lesley feel uneasy about this. She grip her rifle tightly. Her assassin instinct told her something bad would happen.
"What is this test about?" She gulped.
"It's easy. You need to shoot me while being blindfold. Each fail bullets will be count as many I will kiss you."
Lesley shocked. Fuck. He's rude and annoying. Now, he's pervert too?!
"Well. Let's just say I refuse. Send me home, duke of Light. I rather die than got kiss by you. Motherfucker." She can't filter her words anymore. This is nonsense.
She than smirk then laugh. Granger just stay silent.
"So, this is why people ran away from being under your order? You kissed people? Male and female? Are you bisexual by any chance? Hah! Shame on you, scumbag. I quit!" She turns away, but then unexpected things happened.
