ch 15

I'm shocked that Lord Eric just ignored the fact that I knew that it was his guard that raped Albert either that or he didn't care when he found out Albert was running the place like he was top dog either way I was safe from scrutiny at the moment and got reek a little havoc the other day now I'm currently reading about familiars and developing the soul space they live in at least I was until a fat man wearing extremely tight clothes emerged from the shadows.

Me:"what kind of joke is this" I asked as calmly as I could

fatty ninja:"I'm your assassination master code name big boi"

Me:"So lord Eric was pissed about what I did to Albert I mean it's the only thing that can explain how a whale made it to dry land"

After that comment the last thing I remember is an eclipse blocking the sun and it coming at me I wake up to find I'm no longer in my comfy chair with a massive headache looking around this is clearly not my house as the floors are filthy and the walls are stone like an abandoned basement and I'm tied to a metal chair with no arch support over a formation.

Big Boi:"Do you know why you're here?"

Me:"Because asking you to walk upstairs is too much" Without warning Big Boi slaps me clearly unprovoked

Big Boi:"Do you have any control over your mouth?!"

Me:"Do you? I mean how else did you get so fat?" again for a reasonable question I get slapped by his meaty hand

Big Boi:"I guess we will start with interrogation techniques to get answers from a target. What did you have for breakfast today?"

Me:"Of course the first question is food" instead of a slap I received a fist

Big Boi:"Why do have to be so difficult?"

Me:"Just trying to make sure you earn your third lunch"

This pattern continues until he finally starts to look exhausted sweating more than if he walked up stairs and I look like hamburger but my wounds are all superficial.

Big Boi:"Alright you win what do I have to do to get you to stop being an asshole?"

Me:"Ask politely"

After this incident Big Boi reveals that this was always supposed to be interrogation to see how weak I am under stress and how long a pampered scion can endure before revealing family secrets and he wasn't sent by lord Eric but by the grand Elder to test and train the younger generation after they received their hydras and the reason he knows is because he is an elder he proved it with his amulet of the house a very pissed Elder because he was assigned to me.

The reason I took this beating was because I was told that my instructor would reveal he worked for the family with serpent eye amulet and if they didn't we were supposed not provide them any information proof of our loyalty to the family if one showed they couldn't be broken I theorized they would be privy to higher classified information of the family and it turns out I was right.

Apparently I preformed so well I will be fast tracked to undergo advanced assassin training after which I would be taken live missions instead of basic training for new initiates who received a hydra which boils down to avoiding assassinations and capture because they are still too weak willed and therefore a liability if captured or taken into combat.

The advanced course includes not only the basics but close quarters combat instead of regular weapons training, stealth, intelligence gathering, sabotage, blending into a situation and creating a new identity and apparently the first thing Big Boi is doing is to help create my first new identity.
