behind the conspiracy

It was night time Kanna was sleeping beside Thea.

Thea woke UP with a sense of thrilling emotion.

--- MASTER, WHAT YOU DID, WAS AWESOME THE PEOPLE HERE ARE CURIOUS WHO IS THE MYSTERIOUS PEOPLE WHO DESTROYED THE ILLEGAL AUCTION HOUSE IT WAS AMAZING ----

Well Lewis what I did was little it was only part of beginning of the mission. Since missions has no time limit I can take my time and this is my first time living in a fantasy world but people here are still the same ''glances at Lewis'' don't worry little guy we will meet someone very important ''wink''

At the camp of royal guards.

Someone was walking by a handsome young man it was the captain of the royal guards of the capital he was attractive, everyone passes by him, they bow in respect and mostly female servants was falling for him. He went inside to his office and suddenly one of his guards barge in and shouted. My lord lady anathea is coming here! The captain was a bit startled and called his servants to prepare tea.

Thea arrived together with jean both standing in front of the castle she went inside and one royal guard escorts her to a guest room. The captain greeted her and invited her to enter the guest room.

It was silent the captain introduced himself ''my name is earl crook my lady'' Thea replied after a sip of tea- it is nice to meet you Mr. captain.

The captain was confused why the daughter of duke lasker came to visit him since he was a commoner who got promoted for his hard work, he asked.

Uhm my lady why did you come all the way here just to meet me my lady? For a banished noble who doesn't hide away in shame I'm surprise.

There is nothing to be surprise about Mr. captain sir since I have the right to go out, why can't I meet the honorable people who protects the kingdom.

If you say so my lady.

Oh right, jean can you please wait outside don't let anyone enter

Yes, my lady jean replied.

''serious mode'' I heard there was riot in the west side of the town an illegal auction house I hear. You captain are the one who is in charge of the investigation but your superior didn't allow you to go further and made the host of the illegal auction house the one in charge of it and made him guilty even though his dead but you think he wasn't and tried to persuade your commander to continue the investigation and to find out who was the killers who slashed the host and the other 42 guards in the illegal auction house but he refused and you plan to do the investigation on your own am I right? ''smirk''.

The captain stood in shock.

Relax Mr. captain ''sips tea'' I'm not here to sabotage your plan, I'm here to negotiate.

The captain sat again and was a bit nervous, he asked Thea what do you want my lady?

Thea replied Well I want you to you give me your reports during your investigation in return I will find out who is the true head if this auction house ''smile''

The captain hurriedly refused and said it was too far dangerous.

Mmm thea didn't hesitated to tell him that she was the one who caused the riot and tied the nobles up and killed the host.

And now the captain was more shocked and scared he thought to himself- this little girl was the one who created that chaos and made the auction house full of blood.

Now do you think I can handle the danger? And please don't tell this to no one sir and if you did they won't even believe you but I know you're a good man sir and good secret keeper yourself.

The captain agreed to her terms and he went to his office and got the reports about the incident.

Thea picked it up, she read the report, after reading it, one piece of evidence was picked from the location, she said.

It was the list of guest who was invited in the auction house that day said earl.

Thea replied yes but one of the guest didn't arrive because his or her name wasn't cross out so in my theory this person was late and saw the chaos and ran away or he/she didn't come. We don't know this person because every guess uses a code name and this person's code name is ''sun''.

Earl deliberately ask what clue will she find by the name sun only since it was hard for him to find that clue.

Thea smiled and said- captain give me three day I will find you the one who handles the slave trade and the illegal auction house. Well since its getting late I should go now. Thea stood up and was about to leave but the captain grabbed her hand and that made her upset a bit she took of his hands and ask what is it captain earl?

Earl intentionally asked Thea how did she know about the superior stopping the investigation and him involved in the auction house.

Thea replied, I have my own ways, like a secret weapon.

The captain asked again what was her weapon that she can hear or know something from afar.

Thea again responded- shhh…. I can't tell you for now there are a lot of ears behind The walls ''smirks''.

Thea left the office. The captain glances at Thea who is entering her carriage. He was amazed and scared on how this little girl killed 43 people with her little hands and most of all was mature. Most nobles at her age would want a jewelry, dress or men. But who was her company during the chaos I hear from the nobles who were captured they were two of them, I should ask her if she comes back.

AT THE CARRIAGE

Thea stretch her arms because she was exhausted. Her maid, jean asked- my lady how did you know that the captain was in- charge of the investigation, I heard it while waiting outside.

Thea was shook and thought this maid of hers has good ears but she was loyal and loves Thea since they were younger she tells her.

Jean you see ''whispers'' I have now my own element ''wink''

Jean was happy and almost shouted but Thea grabbed her and covered her mouth she tells her- uhm let us keep this a secret jean.

Jean answered in a cute way saying of course my lady I won't ever tell anyone even if someone tries to kill me because I want to repay you with my life and devotion because I love my lady!

Hahahah, Thea laughed whole heartedly (I'm sorry jean but that Thea is long gone)

Oh my lady we have arrived!

AT HER ROOM

Arriving there she asked Keith to come out. Keith popped out in his element form and transform into his human form.

Thea thanked him for eavesdropping the commander and the captain's conversation a little while ago.

Keith replied, without your glasses you won't even know that happened and only ask the captain to partner up with him. Jeez that human has guts doing an investigation behind his commander.

Thea replied that's why I like him.

Keith was bothered by that statement and he pulls Thea telling her- you can't fancy another man my lady.

Thea blushed and got out from his grasp informing him he is not her lover.

He was disappointed and ask permission to take his leave.

Thea agreed, after he left, Thea felt a bit bad saying that but tells herself that she is really not his lover and that she was fantasizing things. Kanna jump out from the bathroom screaming mommy and running towards her the servants was chasing after her.

Thea picked her up, the servants apologized for their poor service but Thea smiled and let them off and ask them to have a rest.

The servants agreed and walks away with a delighted face saying that Thea was very kind and caring.

It was only the both of them in the room. Thea flick Kanna's forehead. Kanna tells Thea it hurts.

Thea put her back into the bathtub and wash her hair.

Kanna tells thea it felt good, thea was happy and continue to bath her.

It was a good night.

IN THE MORNING

Now Keith let's go Thea telling Keith.

They were on their way on the mercenary guild starting to find their second mission. As soon as they arrive they say that they were a lot of people in front of the clerk most of them were angry.

Thea asked the clerk what was going on.

The clerk replied the townsfolk was complaining since there were bandits stealing goods for a few weeks. People here didn't get enough food to eat. b to s-ranks mercenaries are still unavailable because their mission takes up days.

Ah maybe you two can handle this since you two are the only available ranking mercenaries, if you both complete this task there will be big reward and you both will become a-ranks ''wink'' and even people here would be glad and praise you.

Thea smiled since it was perfect for her mission she agreed and ask where does the hijack happens.

The clerk replied. It's in the road of luyah mountain that is where the countryside connects from the capital since the goods comes from farm.

Thea thanked her and they set out into the woods.
