After I cleaned our room until it is manually polished, I decided to check Maine's research that was in a sturdy table
"Maine, what are you doing?"
In the table, there were several books and beakers clattered at the table, Maine research tell me that he is onto something, like a very important, there he yawned
"An ancient virus, I extracted it during my expedition in Caria, it holds something valuable"
As apart from what he said, it was indeed an ancient virus, the textbooks clearly says all the origins of this kind of virus, I was confused from his research, I dug deeper from Maine's experiments
"An ancient virus, is it the plague?"
There he nodded in approval, I heard a rumour about an extinct virus coming back to life, I gathered Intel about the plague where I was gathering information from the masked man I slained, he gave me an satisfying answer,
"Why are you interested in my research, Is there bothering about the ancient virus?"
"No, not at all"
I shrugged a measely expression to Maine, I was partially interested on learning the ancient virus myself, the textbooks that Maine was currently reading is full of information regarding from the virus, Yet, I didn't understand a single word about the book, it is consists of ancient scriptures from the past, I have no clue what he's been reading
While I was peeping through Maine's research, a knock that was heard from the room, Maine didn't bother checking the door, instead he is mainly focused on his research, I heard a sound and was bowled over to see me entered, it was the first time she been in my room.
"Greeting, Lady Roxy"
It was the maid that handed the keys yesterday, she is a petite girl with both of its ponytails tied, I was surprised to see the maid lend out a youthful smile, I never knew her name, now it is the time to introduce herself
"Ma'am, what is your name exactly,"
"Miera, Lady Roxy"
Miera said she wanted to help me in return for saving her master, ever since I arrived into this manor, She showed kindness through me, Those words had left my speechless in a bind, I have no clue what to tell her, there she asks
"Roxy, may Lady White have a word for you in the balcony,"
"Sure"
After that, I left the room as usual, there I headed towards the balcony inside the manor, I saw White sipping a cup of tea placed in a small table, the balcony was windy, much like the circulating fresh air, I approached her
"Roxy, I been waiting for you, take a seat"
There I sat behind White, sipping a cup of tea from its tray, looking me worry in the eyes, Teatime just for the two of us had become an routine resting at the balcony where winds cooled through our bodies
"Roxy, thank you for saving our guild, yesterday, Without you, I would've been dead for now, I doubt you skills Roxy, despite being an silver-ranked adventurer"
White placed her teacup in a nearby tray, she appraised me from saving the future of the guild, White sighed at me,
"Ah, we didn't retrieve the guild Carriage, it was full of jewelry inside, I can't believe we been robbed, that carriage was worth ten gold coins"
"Ten gold, that is expensive"
"Exactly, it was my family's profession, that guild carriage was linked from my life"
The carriage that was robbed yesterday contains White's fortune for the guild, it is composed of jewelry that is worth a single gold coin, it is overly expensive compared to the spider queen heart I sold for measely five gold coins,
"Roxy, can I do you a favor, as leaders?"
There I listened in both ears, understanding White's comment while sipping a cup of warm sweet and delicious tea from the stainless tray,
"Can you retrieve the guild carriage, it was located at the Castle Libra, northwest of Town Allure, it is a one-man job, I'm sure your strong enough to handle this mission"
There White explained all the details, Castle Libra was home to the infamous guild known as the Bronze coin guild, it is a group of bandits that stole the guild carriage full of jewelry, they told me all their valuable were ready to sell in the black market, White tasked this mission as a solo, so I will be handle this myself
Their leader, Edrie Collon, was one of the Capital Knights, based from the small fragment of information, he is an silver-ranked adventurer, the same rank as White, so it is best to not fight Edrie,
While listening to our conversation with a cup of tea in my hand, she gave me an green stone that I instantly recognized
"Roxy, this is an communication stone, it can reach over long distances, you can contact us if you ever need help,"
Also, White said that this is more of a stealth mission, White recognized my slim and flexible body, from which is very reliable from the mission, my goal is to retrieve the guild carriage as soon as possible, it is the future of the guild,
Without the guild carriage full of valuables and jewelry, we wouldn't be able to raise our guild funds, it was linked from approving the lands and mortgages, from which it required a hefty sum of money and coins,
There, White eyes were pointing at me, she didn't drank her cup of tea during our conversation, the mission that I was assigned was needed for stealth, since the guildmembers wasn't suited from stealthy work, I was their only option
"Okay, I will accept the mission"
I said it out loud with no signs of stuttering, there I accepted White request, reclaim the guild's carriage without being detected, simple as that,
"Roxy, don't ever get spotted, the Bronze Coin Guild has a lot of high-ranking adventurers guarding the facility, it's best to go at night, where stealth is a better option"
After that, White and I left the balcony, Discussing about the mission on retrieving the stolen carriage, I followed White along the way, in preparing my mission tonight,
As I followed her, we arrived at the clothing room of the manor, Inside of that room, several clothes and attires were scattered at the room, it was full of wonderful dresses and attires that was inside of the clothing room, it was big enough to open its own fashion store,
"Woah, this room is big, is this all yours, isn't it?" I said
"Yes, all of this worthless junk is all mine, you can have it if you want"
My face was blanked upon hearing White response, she said the beautiful dresses that was inside the clothing room is all garbage, as she said "worthless junk" made my envy from her more deepen, as much as her perspective, clothes are trash, and fashion isn't even a thing anymore,
White said it's hopes in great, she recommended my outfit, all colored black, from which is easily blends into the shadows,
While I was peeping through the dresses that was hanging in the ceiling, White took the light armor in the display case and made some adjustments to accommodate my current size, Not long after, she came out to the back room and presented it to me
"I made a few small adjustments, What do you think?" White asked
"It… it looks awesome"
I took the black armor and noticed a silver fabric was perfectly sewn to the inner lining,
"White, what is this?" I asked
"The silver is good from hiding in plain sight, blending with the shadows is a great option, consider it as a hidden accent, Why don't you try it on?"
"Good idea"
I put the lightweight armor on, and it was amazing, White seemed to instinctively understand the size and height of my body, even through we met in a few days, But still, the fit was perfect, and the gear was easy to move on too,
I knew in the not-so-distant future, I saw White being a fashion designer from now on, I shook in excitement, White's armor was out of my leagues ahead of the equipment I'd bought in Town Allure
"How's the fit, Roxy?" White asked
"It's even better than I expected, I feel stronger just by wearing this"
"Ease up on the compliments, this is only just the beginning, Perhaps, how about a pair of accessories from your clothing"
I can already tell that White is easily a fashion designer, despite calling her clothes "Trash", she still never gives up on fashion,
A light armor set, a pair of boots, a belt and a black hoodie, All together, they are perfect, Changing my old gear into a new, I admire myself in the mirror, I know it was probably arrogant, but I really liked the way I looked, And I smiled, I looked like an assassin though
At first glance, everything was black, the pantyhole showed half my skin off, including the long skirt that was in deep black with a touch of silver from the sides
"These clothes made you a fine woman, Indeed" said White
"Aren't you tired of saying that?"
The hoodie that was attached from my lightweight armor perfectly hid my face well, and a built-in mask on that same hoodie, not a trace of identity that was seen, White also mistaken me as an stranger when I hid through my hoodie
"Perfect, now you are ready for the mission, Because of your disguise, you are literally untraceable"
