It was night.

A day after he killed dad, Sir Cain arrived alongside the guild lady who made the mission for both of them.Full novel: Stars of the above — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠

“Knock…knock…” After arranging somethings, I heard a knock from the door.

“Ria, can you get it?” Mom pretended to yell at me.

This was going far prefect I thought, I just hope Eva doesn’t release her anger just yet.

Even if he happens to be the man who killed dad he doesn’t deserve to know the truth.

There are some things I must do before all this goes down.

My plan was simple.

But I have nothing at a guarantee, a little interference can ruin everything.

I slowly walked down opened the door and put on a smile on my face.

Of course, I was pretending but I knew why I had to endure all of that.

I will use all my skills I got from earth and use them to their fullest extent.

I learned all these within the sixteen years experience I had on earth.

“Hey, kid. Is your family home?” Cain asked staring directly at me.

There was a hint of guilt placed on his face.

But I knew it was forced, or rather, acting.

“Yeah, mother is doing her hair and Eva is asleep.”

“Alright, may we come inside. It is about your father!” The lady standing near him answered with a gentle tone.

“Wait. What are you doing here Sir. Cain, aren’t you supposed to be with my father at this moment?”

“About that. Kid, we have to speak with your mother. It is very important that we all sit and discuss this matter.”

“Judging by the way you guys are speaking I suppose the news can’t be good. Are they?”

“When we sit down, you will know what transpired.”

I led them to the dining table and got them a glass filled with water and ice, but I made sure to add more ice in Sir.

Cain’s drink.

“Please and thank you. Today, you have horrible news.” The lady gathered her strength, courage and mental composure to deliver the news.

“….?”

“Yesterday, we saw the departure of two of our beloved adventures – that being Mr. Allen and Mr. Cain – who even took his pet. But we were not met with good news, but the devil’s judgement. We lost an adventure: Mr. Allen. We are very sorry.”

The lady’s speech was delivered perfectly, my mind immediately registered her as someone who would be useful towards me and my plans. Read this novel at g.com for the best experience.

Too bad, she is associated with this psychopath.

“Oh… I see….!” I said, keeping her voice down.

The means of listening and registering everything as crucial is beneficial for oneself.

Mother absorbed the pain of losing her husband and replaced it with protecting her children.

For a normal child, losing your parents would be a nightmare and it might lead to mental fatigue, but for a child as myself, I can do everything as long as I train and practice.

“I am sorry! I couldn’t keep him safe, a… and when I tried – tried to save him, he sacrificed himself. He was burnt, broken then they removed his heart. I am so… so… so…. sorry!”

He is good.

Does acting exist in this world.

Yeah, that is the answer it got.

“You tried, and that is all that matters. Now, you both can leave. I want to grief alone with my children.” She stated.

Then both the guild lady and Sir.

Cain left.

“I believe that guys. He kills someone, comes back to their family and lies completely about what happened.”

“It is the world, mother. It is a dark world.”
