Saga of Twilight:Calin ga Kill!

Chapter 3

In the middle of a field, three people stand facing each other from a distance

Ieyasu:Calin, it's about time for us to get going
Sayo:We're heading this way. You should go back now
Calin:...so this is goodbye then?
Ieyasu:Yeah, you've got new friends now though
Sayo:Learn to rely on them, for us, at least a little
Ieyasu:We'll see you later
Calin:...Alright, see you guys around then

The three of them turn away, Sayo and Ieyasu walk into the horizon while Calin sticks his hands in his pockets, shuts his eyes, and starts walking his own way

When he opens his eyes he finds himself lying in bed, he sits up, checks the time, looks at the sky out the window and nods to himself, and goes to get up before noticing the weight on his bed, looking to the side, and noticing a passed out Sheele sitting on a chair halfway on the bed, talking to herself in her sleep

Sheele:Calin will be....working with me today....it seems....let's....get along.....

Calin takes a moment to take in and appreciate the sight of the sleepy Sheele before nodding to himself satisfied, giving her a light pat on the head and going about getting ready for the day without waking her

Meanwhile, Najenda Lubbock and Leone are eating some of the fruit Akame's gathered

Lubbock:Y'know I'm not sure how smart it is for Sheele to be in charge of Calin
Najenda:It'll be fine, I think they'll get along great
Lubbock:What makes you say that?
Najenda:It's good for Calin to be taught by someone with more experience
Leone:I'm taking him next!
Najenda:And besides, she's got talent
Lubbock:That seems unfair
Najenda:...To an assassin, experience makes them a better killer...what do you think, sound pretty cool?
Leone&Lubbock:.........
Najenda:guess not?

Returning to our regularly scheduled protagonist as he drags himself out of a river wearing full plate armor

Sheele:Well done swimming in that armor
Calin:this shit is heavy
Sheele:This is the curriculum I came up with for assassin training, since I don't have a job at the hideout I can concentrate on you
Calin:Why don't you have a job?
Sheele:....I got the normally cool Akame mad when I tried to cook, when I tried to clean I made a bigger mess for Bulat to clean up, when I did the shopping I mixed up the salt and sugar, Leone couldn't stop laughing, and when I did the laundry I cleaned Mine with the clothes
Calin:that last one is almost impressive, by the way, Sheele, when I was first recruited you were a bit weird about me joining
Sheele:ehhhh, I feel like I had a reason but I forgot, please allow me to apologize

Sheele attempts to bow her head in apology, but accidentally causes her glasses to fall off her face, giving Calin a nice view of her being adorably innocent as she pulls a Velma and takes a moment to find them

Calin:Hey Sheele, do you mind me asking how you got into this assassination business?
Sheele:...It's a long story, I grew up in the capital's lower district, I was always clumsy so I never had anything to be proud of, "That girl's got a screw loose", I heard a lot of insults like that, but there was one person who wanted to be my friend anyway, no matter how clumsy I was she never insulted me, my time with her was the one thing I liked about my life, until one day while I was visiting, her ex-boyfriend showed up, angry at being dumped, he started choking her right in front of me, he was high on drugs, all I was able to think at the time was "I must save her", I was surprisingly calm about it, I picked up a knife, and with him not paying attention, I went for the throat, he died quickly, she couldn't stop shaking and staring at him, but my mind was totally clear, the incident was ruled self-defense, but my friend didn't want to see me anymore, soon after I encountered a group of men, turns out the one I killed was the second in command of a local gang, they came for revenge, said they'd already killed my parent and that it was my turn, and again my mind was clear, I dodged the first ones clumsy attack, aimed for his vitals, and then used him as a shield as I killed the rest one by one, and I understood, the screw loose in my head, made me very talented at killing, I could take out the trash of society, it was the one thing I could do, not long after that the revolutionary army scouted me to carry out assassinations in the capital
Calin:And that's why you came up with this physical training focused assassination curriculum?
Sheele:Correct, because I don't have the combat skills of someone like you to teach
