The Reincarnated Assassins Tale Of Redemption

What are you?

Ren pov

I sneaked into the room,my uncles room with some absurd powers that made me partially invisible.I couldn't understand what was going on.I wanted to pause to take a guess on what was happening or back off from sneaking into uncles room,but then the room being closed most of the time made me think that there had to be something in there which was worth protecting.

As I went inside,I saw things that you would often expect a merchant to have.His room included some posters about the country.This was the first I had seen about the geography of this world.I stared at it for some good time and got to know many things.

To the north as one would expect was white in colour and also included the text after the region.With great difficulty I had succeded in reading it which turned about to be about some object of interest that uncle seemed to have wanted which could be indicated with his writing near that wordings.

The room was filled with documents and maps but It was also filled with many precious object that one might expect a merchant to have.Unlike mother and father who had individual room concerned with sleeping and work,uncles seemed to have done all his work in just this room.

"Something is off"

I could tell it.This room was quite small when compared to mine and my parents.Perhaps it might really have been like this?

Who knows,anyways we have to move on to finding anything that might be related to geography.As I searched around his cupboards,it was filled  with junk which didn't seem to be useful but also things that seemed flashy and could be said to hold some value.After examining some of the cupboards I knew that there wasn't anything of particular interest.

I moved on to the cupboards.

"Hmmm...seems interesting.Might as well take a look now that I'm deep into this"

I was so invested in this stuff that I couldn't control myself anymore.i was tall enough to reach up the chair and climb inside.Once I sat in it I examined the things on the table,it was filled with paper which had some writings on it.Honestly it was the first time I had seen writing in this world.All until now I had ever witnessed was printed texts which I was surprised that this world had.

It intrigued me how these people stumbled upon such technology,but being a kid who had till now never stepped outside the boundaries of this house,I felt like that was going to happen only in the far away future.I don't plan on leaving until father kicks me out.So until then it is going to be me whose going to become a 'hikkikomari',living in what will become my shell,a safe place where I would always be in without getting attacked by others or without a single care.

After reading through some of his papers I understood one thing and that the currencies used here were quite different in regions or countries to be precise.This could be understood by there being multiple different terms after numbers.

"These numbers are making my head spin.Gotta move on and quick before uncle comes in"

I started to go through the tables drawers,as usual there where couple of things here and there.As I approached the last drawer,I saw something that appeared metallic and was shining.I quickly grabbed it thinking that I would never get the chance to take this the next time.

The last drawer when I tried to pull I open,it didn't open.

"Strange..it should have-"

Opened like the others.As I sat down on the thinking,I looked for a key hole around the handle thinking it must be hidden.I ran my hands around the drawer to find any inconsistencies but I didn't get anything.

I was looking straight into the drawer from ahead of of it.I stood and checked the other side of the drawers.Unfortunately 2 sides were covered so the only side left was the side near the place where we keep the foot.Just as I went there I noticed a hole.A hole big enough for a tip of the shoe to pass through.
