 "You guys only have one job! Watch the Zenith church and gather information about them!" Jasmine smiled.

"Yes ma'am!"

"Oh yeah, one more thing. Bring someone who knows about the human trafficking incident. I need to make that person the reporter instead of you guys."

"Yes ma'am!"

Philip and Jance looked up to see that Jasmine was gone. They finally sighed in relief.

"Ha, she left..." Philip sighed in relief.

"Phew!!" Huffed Jance.

"Alright, let's go carry out her order!"

Shift place to Jasmine walking on the street...

"Ppiii! Peep!" Blair complained.

"They'll be fine. I've tightened the knot of subordination. My father will be able to handle the human trafficking accident." Jasmine said.

"Bbi? Piyaa?"

"Why do I call him my father? Well, you know that I never had a good father in my last life. I even killed him! I can finally get a responsible father in this life." Jasmine explained, "And the territory? Well, it belongs to my father so I should help him clean this place up a bit."

"Bbi!"

"Yeah, we can head back for to-"

Suddenly a boy crashed into Jasmine, knocking her over because she was too busy talking to Blair.

"Ugh..." The boy groaned.

"You! Are you blind- a little kid?" Jasmine looked at him.

"You're also a little kid!" The boy shouted at her.

"Oh right~ I forgot about that, ha ha..." Jasmine whispered to herself.

(Forgot to point out, Blair melted into Jasmine's hair to hide)

"I'll let you off this time so watch out from now on." Jasmine dusted herself off.

"Why is he acting like he's an adult? His hair looks like he dyed it like a funky teenager." The boy cursed under his breath.

As Jasmine was walking away, Blair dragged her back, not letting her leave yet.

"Blair, are you mad because he insulted your color?" Jasmine whispered.

"Bi!" Blair whispered back.

"Alright, mother will scold him!" Jasmine assured Blair.

Jasmine turned back to the child who was still glaring at her.

"You better watch your mouth if you don't have a death wish!" Jasmine snarled.

"I-I'm sorry!" The kid bolted away.

Jasmine took Blair out of her hair and held Blair in her hands.

"Darling are you alright now?"

"Biyaa!" Blair was satisfied.

"Alright, I'm glad." Jasmine smiled, "Then let's head back."

A few moments later...

"Look Blair, you should try to follow my commands from now on. I might be your mother but I still have to treat you like the other subordinates. Just maybe not as strict... Do you understand?" Jasmine sat on her bed with Blair next to her.

"Biyaa..." Blair nodded her head.

"Alright," Jasmine smiled, "get some rest now..." Jasmine flopped her face into her pillow.

(Switch pov)

My magic is much too weak at the moment. It drains too much of my energy out of me. But to think that a god would appear in my territory... and most of all, it's my least favorite god. Zenith, the church that killed my husband. Just wait you arrogant gods... I'll destroy you all one day!

(switch narration and switch scenes to Philip and Jance)

"Where is the boss?" Jance asked someone.

"Jance! You were alive?" The man was shocked.

"I asked you where the boss is." Jance repeated.

"Han ni said that he would kill you guys himself how-

Jance punched the wall behind the man, making a crack in the wall.

"Pep, I won't ask you another time."

"U-uh I, I don't know where the boss is!" Pep responded.

"Is that true?" Philip stepped out from the shadows.

"Uh... Philip?!"

"I asked you if that was true."

"O-of course! If you ask anyone else they'll give you the same answer!"

Philip sighed, "Then Pep, where do you think the boss is?"

Pep felt frightened by their presence, knowing that he would be killed if he didn't give the correct answer this time.

"W-well, since the boss likes women and liquor you might find him in one of the bars owned by us!" Pep stammered.

"He's got a point brother." Jance said.

"Then let's head to the bars." Philip responded.

Jance turned back to Pep and punched him in the face; knocking him out.

"About the person the master told us to bring, why don't we bring him?" Jance pointed out, "But where should we put him? Tie him up in the forest?"

"That's not a bad plan, but why don't we put him in the storage of my house instead?"

"Alright let's do that then."

A few moments later...

A boy walked into the facility owned by an evil organization(this is the same guy Jasmine bumped into), since he failed to complete his quota he was scared of the punishment he would receive. However, when he walked in, the place was a complete mess. Corpses covered the floors and the stench of blood filled the air. He was horrified by the scene that confronted him, he decided that it would be best if he left if at that for now, and took off running.

Shift scene to morning where Jasmine is waking up...

"Oh dear, to think I was tired enough to wake up at this time." Jasmine sighed, "Well, I suppose I won't be able to avoid them today as well."

Jasmine got out of bed, put on her usual outfit and made her way down to the dining hall.

"Father, Mother, how did you sleep?" Jasmine asked as a servant opened up the door for her.

"Good morning Jasmine!" Her father responded.

"Sister! Sister! Sammy slept really well!" Her brother chimed in.

"Huh? Where's mother-"

"Kyaaa! Your mother is right here darling~" Jasmine's mother pounced on her.

"Kyaa! Mother?! Were you hiding? I had no idea where you were!" Jasmine lied since she didn't want to ruin her mother's fun.

"Oh~ Really~?" Jasmine's mother chuckled.

"Yeah!"

"My little jewel, were you scared?"

"Yes, but it was fun because I got to see you!"

"Oh my~ How is Jasmine so good-natured?"

"Mother, I think we should start eating now..."

"Kyaa! You're so cute! Let me hug you once more!"

CUT IT OUT MOTHER!!!
