Chapter 25: Tia
Naturally, Captain Harris's estate is tended to by a dedicated servant. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info
The house where Yeyue lived had a butler, a cook, and two maids.
Their usual job is to clean and manage the house, waiting for the owner to move in.
Now, naturally, their task has changed to take care of the guest invited by their master, the night moon.
The housekeeper was waiting for the night moon to dine early in the morning.
Breakfast was porridge and vegetables served on a silver plateβsomething that Yeyue had specifically requested.
She had always had a lighter breakfast.
During the meal, Nightmoon learns something about the assassination last night, which was obtained by using magic to eavesdrop on the small talk of the maid next door.
The general content is: more than a dozen assassins were killed or captured alive because their deeds were revealed before they found their targets, and those who were captured alive immediately committed suicide with poison hidden in their teeth.
A few people escaped.
During last night's search, some of the escaped assassins were searched out one by one, but in the end, they were not caught alive......
Although these can only be regarded as rumors, the rumors in the villa of the highest military commander of the Legion are always more accurate than the outside world.
In addition, it was about the same as Yeyue's expectations, so she accepted it.
"The little girl upstairs was so lucky that she stumbled here by mistake. Probably all the houses in this area, only this one will not be inspected because of Harris's connections. β
After eating, Yeyue got up and walked to the bedroom.
At this point, she suddenly realized that the assassin had awakened.
The other party woke up sooner than expected.
Although they have been treated by themselves, it will take a long time for ordinary people to regain consciousness.
"Good willpower."
With a word of praise, Yeyue turned around and took a bowl of porridge.
When he walked to the bedroom door, Yeyue lowered the sound of footsteps as usual.
She wants to see how the other person reacts.
She lay down again.
"Pretending to be unconscious?"
As usual, pretending not to know, Yeyue opened the door and walked in.
After that, place the porridge on the table next to you, straighten the other person's head, fold the pillow under the other person's head and raise it, and then start pulling down the mask.
The other party was at the mercy of him at first, and it seemed that he wanted to pretend to the end, but at this time, he seemed to tremble uncontrollably slightly.
Night Moon immediately knew the reason.
Before pulling the mask, looking at the contours and bones of the other party's face, Yeyue felt that she should be a beauty embryo.
But after pulling off the mask, Nightmoon found that the face that should have been beautiful was covered with scars.
The scar is coarse, and it seems that the wound has been left very early.
In short, the Assassin's entire face was unusually strange and hideous.
Now that she had moved, the girl simply opened her eyes and looked at the night moon.
She didn't look defensive or scared.
She was waiting for the night moon to be disposed of.
From the fact that she was an assassin staying in the house and sleeping with her head covered, she had already seen how special Yeyue was.
Now that he has been healed, the idiot also knows that Yeyue is not simple.
"You're last night's assassin."
"Yes."
"Hungry?"
ββ¦β¦ Yes. Anyone who fled for a night without water and rice and blood loss and injury would be thirsty and hungry, but the other party didn't ask anything, but directly gave her something to eat, which surprised her.
"Drink porridge."
Sending the Buddha to the west, since he rescued it, it is nothing to give something to eat. Yeyue took a spoonful and fed it.
"Hmm......" Although she showed a surprised expression, she still cooperated and opened her mouth to swallow the porridge.
"Aren't you afraid that I'll be poisoned? You should be worth a lot of money now. Yeyue added, "I mean the bounty after catching you." β
"If you want to work against me, you have a lot of opportunities before...... Hmmm......" After another bite of porridge, she continued, "You saw my face when I was unconscious, right?" β
Oh, do you care about that? Before I finished eating, I started to ask.
"Nope."
"Lying ......"
"Oh?"
"No one can be expressionless when they first see my face."
Yeyue didn't refute.
It's probably hard for her to understand the level of acceptance of ugliness by people who spend their days with zombie skeletons, and her face isn't ugly at all.
Night Moon shifted the subject:
"You used healing magic ......"
"Yes."
"I just diagnosed you. You shouldn't have the ability to use magic, and it doesn't seem like you have it. β
"Yes, she gave me all the magic." As she spoke, the girl named Tia closed her eyes and said something silently, and a cute little elf floated out of her, rested lightly on her shoulder, and reached out and gently grabbed her hair in front of her.
The little thing was obviously much more perceptive than her master, and it looked extremely afraid of the night moon, obviously sensing her powerful magic.
No wonder he never showed up.
The elf has an orange glow.
"This is the elf who made a contract with you?"
"Yes, the contract was forcibly signed after she was captured, and I named her Xiaoya."
Able to capture nature spirits and force contracts, the Assassin's organization appears to have a knack for magic.
"Cherish her?"
The elf didn't seem to be seen as a tool, and looking at the elf's intimacy with her, Tia was clearly nice to her.
"Yes, probably because she has the same fate as me."
"Oh? That's right...... Now that I know her name, can I know yours? β
"Tia, Tia. Iron Mask. β
"Iron Mask? It's a rare surname. β
"Yes, I didn't have a surname, this surname was given by the master."
The higher the status of human beings in this world, the more important they are to their surnames, because they can be said to be proof of noble blood, and the culmination is the Emperor of the Holy Light Empire, who did not even need a name when he ascended the throne.
On the other hand, those at the bottom of the population only need to have a name to call them, just like the commoners of ancient Europe and Japan. If two people's names are repeated, the right of words to indicate personal characteristics or occupation can also be used as a surname with a suffix on the name.
In fact, many nobles also had their surnames that way in the beginning.
This phenomenon is unique to human beings, and some other races attach importance to surnames, such as dwarves and elves, especially dwarves, and they even add the names of all the men of their ancestors to their surnames, so the dwarves can be said to be the longest of all races. Because it was so verbose, they often reduced it to the first syllable and the last syllable, or simply gave it another nickname.
On the contrary, orcs have the shortest names and no surnames at all.

A bowl of porridge was quickly drunk.
Nightmoon didn't get any more information, as Tia didn't provide any information other than her name and what Nightmoon had already discovered.
"Looks like she's already told all the information she's going to get in exchange for saving her life, pretty professional assassin." Yeyue thought about it for a moment and stood up, "Let's have another bowl." β
Giving the other a gentle smile, Yeyue got up and walked out of the bedroom.
Seeing the other party leave, Tia gently got out of bed.
"Thank you, handsome benefactor, goodbye......" She jumped out the window as she knelt down on one knee and said goodbye to the door where Yezuki had left.
"Being able to eat really means that you are cured, and you can jump out of the window......"
Although it is separated by a wall, the actions of the little girl in the room are naturally felt clearly.
With a smile, she went for a walk.
