The Goddess Made A Mistake Again-Chapter 219 - - Following Her Little Steps

'Look at that, I've been looking so long for you and here you are… right in front of me.'

'My Little Assassin.'

In front of me, among the rich crowds of the capital, I saw a very familiar figure that I haven't seen in a while.

After I saved her from the joint attack by the Vagrant Palace Kill Squad, she never showed up before me again. Even in the last three months, there wasn't even a peep from her. I thought that she would at least poison me but no.

She vanished herself like an assassin… typical of her.

But here she stood in a stunning red dress that highlighted her beautiful figure. She was walking alone on the streets in a carefree manner… or that's how she wanted to make it look like.

But after being almost assassinated once and having a sparring match, I understood her a little bit. Well, it also had something to do with the information about her and her missions from the vagrant palace.

She looked like a normal beautiful girl, window-shopping… but I saw how her eyes drifted around her, trying to stealthily go to her mark.

"Wilson, can you wait for a minute?" I ask, "I need to check something out."

"Alright, I'll be right at the gate."

Wilson gave me a thumbs up by the gates as people who bypassed him, wondered if he truly meant what his shirt said.

I slowly follow Rebecca's footsteps and go into an alley. I was 30 steps behind her as she quickly took too many turns for anyone to follow at this distance. But my eyes picked up her footsteps among the countless one's on the streets.

Following behind that footstep, I took the same turns and go into deep alleys as she did. I also made sure to check my own surroundings to see if that final boss like teacher of hers was here or not, fortunately he wasn't.

After going through some sketchy places, I finally stopped when I felt her footsteps stop too.

It was a deep alley in the outskirts of the capital where the law was sketchy and so were its residents.

Even with good camouflage, I made sure not to go less than 30 steps from Rebecca. I had a guess that, If I went in any closer, she would know about being followed.

'She has a great sense of her surroundings. At such a distance, with so many turns and houses, it would take a miracle for anyone to see her, let alone hear what she's saying.'

'But I'm a bit different, little assassin.'

My eyes gleam in the darkened environment and my vision penetrates through the many houses and objects as it revealed her figure to me.

With my X-Ray vision, I saw that there was another person with her. A 4.4-foot-tall guy covered with a black hood covering his whole body. But I saw the countless moles and disruptive portrait he had.

Rebecca stood before him in a carefree manner but not once did she lower her guard. She wasn't the one who spoke first.

"You're early today." The guy's voice was a bit hoarse, "Your outfits quite fine too, is the customer today a generous one."

From the way he spoke, it seemed they have a good relation.

"Stop wasting my time, just give me the item I came here for."

But Rebecca showed that their relation was only long… not deep.

The guy even after the insulting dialogue, didn't lower his smile one bit. He was a crude man.

"Alright, I'll give your item to you. No need to get so angry over it." He said and brought out a vial with purple liquid for her.

"The usual amount."

Rebecca gave a bag of money to the guy and was about to take the vial, but the guy stepped back.

"Why did you do that?" She asked, not angry nor happy.

"I'll give it to you… after you give a bit more."

"You!"

"No need to get worked up." The guy backed a step in fear as he saw Rebecca's serious look, "It's just that the price of the item has gone up."

"I didn't hear anything about that."

"How would you when the only thing you do is kill people?" The guy said and immediately readjusted his words, "I- I- I don't mean anything by it… just that your info's out of date."

Rebecca's hard look bore into that illegal vendor as he could only smile through numerous sweat.

"Tck!" Rebecca snickered as she threw him a small bag, "There's your money, now give me my stuff!"

The vendor smiled brightly and quickly gave Rebecca the vial.

"I'm sorry for the mishap, it's just business, Ashen Fang… Argh!" The vendor screamed in fear as he felt a Sai press on his neck.

"Never… call me by my name again, Understand!"

"Ye- Ye- Yes!" The vendor nodded roughly, fear pressing his bones, "I'll never call you by your name again."

As the vendor was about to beg, the Sai pressing onto him released and Rebecca walked away.

I immediately hide above the houses as she quickly retraced back her steps to the main street.

…

The vendor took deep breaths as he lay on the ground.

"Damn! I would have died if her poisoned Sai had cut into my flesh." The vendor got up and patted his clothes. Then he got angry at how Rebecca treated him, "Damn that bitch! We've been doing business for so long and she gets annoyed at me for calling out her codename!"

"Maybe I should give her identity out and let the nobles fuck her!" The vendor said as an image of his throat being cut off by the Sai came.

'…Think I'll postpone for a while.'

He looked at the two bags in his hands and smiled when he opened them. Inside were a lot of fresh pound notes in them.

'She may be a hard fucking bitch… but she's my richest customer. I'll forgive her this time… only this time.'

The vendor then happily went on to count the notes. But he didn't see the huge figure standing at the alley. Henry did a gun figure with his hand and imaginably pulled the trigger.

"Arkh!"

A white shot got out of it and immediately hit the vendor's neck, making him unconscious.

"Alright… let's see what you've got there."

…

'Hmm, I suppose it's going to take a bit mor-'

"Yo! I'm back." Henry came back, calling Wilson. "Did you get bored?"

"No, it's alrigh-"

"Yeah, how could you with so many hot girls walking around?" Henry said looking at the numerous girls on the street.

Wilson only smiled at that, "So where to now?"

"Ah, didn't I say that we'll go out to celebrate… we'll go out to a restaurant and celebr-"

"Henry, can I advise a different kind of fun?" Wilson smiled as Henry became curious.

"Oh, you have a preference… alright then, let's see what your kink is." Henry smiled.

…

"Damn I got hustled." I say looking at the orphanage before me that was supposed to be fun.

"I know this isn't what you wanted, but I thought that it would be best if you showed your gratitude in a different way other than celebrating." Wilson said with an innocent smile that flashed at me.

'Damn… the holy aura around him is blinding me!'
