My Status as an Assassin Obviously Exceeds the Hero’s

"Urk festival?

When you ask if you want to go to the festival, Crowe speaks as barbaric as I do.

Well, that's confusing.

Fighting the Demons, I thought they had fled with their lives, and I would tell them that they were going to the festival the next day.

I don't like it when people like that stay at home.

"... you want to go?

Questioning that, Crowe looked difficult and silenced.

Abominable land with the one who killed my sister.

I don't know why you haven't tried to get revenge before, but you'll have the courage to go.

"Are you serious?

"I mean it. Amelia wants to go, too. I don't have eyes for food."

I shrugged, and Crowe looked up at the universe with his vain eyes like last night.

In the living room alone, I sigh.

The brave men are here to help rebuild the city.

Amelia and I went out at night with Mr. Gill.

Probably not enough food because of the increase in the number of people and went to the mountains to pick it up.

The mountain climb is still tough. Me and Crowe were left to leave a message.

I couldn't stand the silence of the two of us, and I asked Crowe to go.

Amelia told me about Crowe's night encounter and Crowe's sister.

I have a sister, too, so I feel like I know what it's like.

No matter how much you fight, or say you hate it with your mouth, you're still an important family.

Me and Wei have been out of my mother's tummy at about the same time, and the distance is very close than normal siblings.

Only, I couldn't bear to say that I was really my sister because of the doctor's mistake, and I'm sure you still don't think of me as my brother.

It's amazing what you reluctantly call your brother.

But no matter how busy you are, you must be a pretty little sister to me.

I don't think I can stop myself if only someone kills me before I go home.

Whatever hand you use, I'll make you regret it.

This is my idea, and I don't think Crowe has the same idea, but I wonder if he has a close idea.

"... you want to know why I don't take revenge on my sister while I know the truth?

That's what Crowe says and rocks his tail.

I saw Crowe in a hurry.

The gaze that was lost in the universe is pointed straight at me.

but obsidian eyes had not emitted light.

"I can tell by looking at your thoughts and such. It's a poker face, but your eyes say more than your mouth."

Because the exterior looks almost the same age as Mr. Gill, or I seem to forget that Crowe is someone who has lived for over a century now and then.

Crowe opened his mouth with a quiet face.

"There are two reasons. One, because my sister doesn't think it's a good idea to get her hands dirty with the blood of her countrymen. The second..."

That's what I said, and I shook my fist down my knee with regret.

"I can't fight for long because of my age. People may not understand, but the aging of our Beast people comes all at once. Until the day before, many compatriots, even if they can move like they did when they were younger, will fall asleep the next day"

I accidentally leaked my voice.

It seems to be an ageing phenomenon characteristic of the Beast people.

I've never known it before.

"There's a personal difference, but in my case, that was fast. Not long after my sister died, I spent about fifty years gathering information about Gram with my enemies, and I worked out a plan, but it aged on the day I tried to put it into action. When I was younger, I was aging faster because of so much impotence."

Crowe has a self-derisive grin.

Apparently Gram has extra bad luck.

Or is Crowe out of luck?

"Leah's wand, that was made by me. Long before she joined the royal family, she stood up for her future protector, the best wand of my kind. That's what informed me of your crisis. … I was rather confused about going to help."

Then will the benefactor of our lives be Crowe and Leah?

I didn't know you from before you joined the royal family......

What kind of relationship?

"I helped you for a reason."

Thinking about Crowe's relationship with Leah, Crowe said that with a serious face and looked at me.

My eyes are looking straight at me as they were earlier, but unlike earlier, there is a different light in my eyes.

I breathed in the light.

"... what"

I can't predict what they're going to say, and I ask confused.

Crowe kept the light of his eyes, with a pale smile on his mouth.
