I\'m not going to lie. It was my first time going to a high-class restaurant. And right now, everything here is new to me.

Reina and I were now alone on the top floor of a fancy restaurant. Now that I think about it, doesn\'t this seem like a date?

"Did we have to come here?"

I\'m complaining. I was just wondering what Reina wanted. If she wanted to be alone, she could have requested everyone to leave her room.

"Don\'t you like rewards? Think of this as another one. If there was any other problem, count this as one of your prizes."

It was a nice reward, but there are better things that I could get. Since we\'re here, I might do my best to enjoy it.

"Remember that butler that had told you to change?"

Reina stared at me blankly, wondering what I was getting at. Even though I pitied the man who loved her, I was still someone who wouldn\'t let someone talk down on me.

"He has feelings for you. This was the first time someone told me to back off from someone. It was something I never expected to happen."

"What are you getting at?"

"My emotions were hurt to a certain degree. So, this meal at the restaurant could be used for this, right?"

Reina ignored me and looked at the menu. Seeing that she didn\'t react to anything, I looked at mine and wondered what to get.

Wagyu beef, Oysters, Caviar, and many more were on the list. With my order in mind, I waited for Reina to decide what she wanted.

Getting the waiter, Reina ordered some mumbo jumbo. In comparison, I had only gotten a wagyu and some spaghetti.

I could have ordered more, but I was a respectable guest. While dinner was great, I couldn\'t help but think about Nene and the people living at my house. I wonder how they were doing.

"So, when do you want me to kill your brother?"

"During his ceremony or before he arrives?"

Any option was available to me. Since Reina had made this contract, I didn\'t care how it was done.

"Do it when he officially takes the role as Burgess\'s head."

That was cruel, but she had every right to do so. Her brother had stolen most of her joy. And he can\'t even make it up to her.

"What are you going to do after your brother is dead?"

"..."

Reina looked at me without moving an inch. She stared at me with empty eyes. Those eyes were similar to my past.

One who will take their own life. Even if she had gained more emotions, could she truly feel happy? That wasn\'t for me to answer, but only for time to tell.

After finishing our meal, both of us went back without a word. Reina immediately went to her room while I decided to take a bath.

Night time approached, and I was trying to sleep in my bed. I knew the reason why I was unable to sleep.

This request made by Reina left a bad taste in my mouth. As someone who only cares about personal gains, who would have thought I would hesitate to do something like this?

But after this, the bad feeling would leave. We humans would only move on with our life. That is someone that everyone would have to accept.

*Rustle*

Outside my room, I heard someone coming in. Closing my eyes and ready to activate my artifact, the door to my room opened.

I heard the steps of the person coming in. The presence of the person\'s body was within body distance.

Activating my artifact, I heard a metal sound from her barrier. Opening my eyes, I saw the butler in the garden earlier today.

The knife that he was holding had hit the barrier I had made. I didn\'t think I would be assassinated while doing an assassination.

"Wow, to think there was someone much more narrow-minded than me."

"Shut up! Because of you! I got fired by Ms. Reina!"

So he got fired? I can\'t say I\'m too surprised. Falling in love with your superior is a big no-no, especially if your superior is a female.

"Shouldn\'t you thank me? Now your chances with Reina are much higher."

"Still, I didn\'t think you would be so stupid to attack someone that is so much higher than you in the overall ranking."

"Shut up! It\'s all your fault!"

I guess he wasn\'t listening for any more reason, with both of us attacking, using my skill. I set my curse at ten percent.

With us a few feet between, he dashed towards me and slipped on the ground. The knife he was holding onto earlier had slipped and cut a part of his legs.

"ARGH!"

He wailed in pain, and with his scream, he attracted the attention of nearby servants. Was this called a self-snitch?

It didn\'t take long for someone to appear. The servant saw that a person was bleeding in the legs. They called for help.

From the looks of it, I will have a sleepless night. The ex-butler looked at me, full of hatred. He tried to get up with a knife stuck to his leg. His attempt was futile.

Jennifer, who I met earlier today, was still awake. She looked a bit tired. I felt a bit bad for her wasting some time because of this.

"What happened?"

"He tried to kill me but slipped and got himself injured."

Jennifer frowned at the severity of this incident. With her continuing to ask questions, the long night had just begun.

~

"I\'m sorry for everything that happened tonight."

After hearing everything that had happened, Jennifer apologized in advance.

"You don\'t have to be sorry. I\'m not bothered by it, at the very least."

Being modest was the best thing I could do. Lashing out at Jennifer would only worsen it. I could use this chance to form more of a connection with the Burgess family.

"I would like to compensate you. But it is already late. I will do it after the ceremony. Go take a rest first."

I knew there was a reason why I liked Jennifer. She knew what I liked.
