They had already earned 6,500 Ryo from 16 missions. They could have earned more, but the village took a large percentage of the mission fees. Still, 6,500 Ryo was not a small amount—it was already more than 1.5 times their monthly stipend.
After returning to their house, they received a notice stating that the duration for which their house had been allotted for free was over. Starting next month, if they wanted to continue living in the house, they would have to pay 2,000 Ryo each month for each house.
"What should we do now?" Yomi asked Kaida.
"Well, we have eight days to think about it since we'll have to pay rent from next month. Let's continue doing missions for now, and in between, we'll search for another house. If we find a better one, we'll move out; otherwise, we'll have to pay 4,000 Ryo per month. In both cases, there's nothing to worry about."
After that, they went to the training area to practice their new jutsu. Though they had learned it, to make it battle-ready, they had to master all five jutsu.
After practicing for three hours straight, they both went back to their house and slept.
For the next three days, this became their daily routine:
- In the morning, they would do physical exercise for four hours, during which Kaida would increase his exercise weight by 3 kg.
- After that, they would complete D-rank missions, a total of 16 per day, earning them 6,000-6,500 Ryo. In the evening, they would focus on jutsu training.
On the fourth day, while choosing a mission, Kaida was surprised to see the payment for one mission. The task was simple—cutting the grass in a garden—but the payment was five times that of a normal D-rank mission.
"Sir, why does this mission pay so much?"
"Oh, this is a mission from a noble. They always pay more, but their completion requirements are also tougher.
If you're planning to take this mission, be wary of whatever they say. Nobles have silver tongues and can be very manipulative."
Kaida nodded and took the mission, along with seven others. He decided to do the noble's mission himself and send clones to complete the others.
When they reached the mission location, it was a large bungalow that could be described as a mini-palace. They rang the bell, and a butler answered.
"We're here for the mission."
"Please wait a minute," the butler said in a very respectful tone. After checking the paperwork, he nodded and asked them to follow him. He then took them to a garden the size of a football field.
"You just have to cut the grass and place it in that corner."
Kaida and Yomi were pleasantly surprised. Though the garden was a bit large, they could complete the work quickly using chakra. But the butler added:
"You are not allowed to use any jutsu for this, according to my lady." He pointed toward the balcony where a blonde girl sat under an umbrella, watching them.
Kaida understood that this mission had been posted by her purely for entertainment. But since they had already accepted the mission, Kaida and Yomi simply nodded and got to work.
What could have been completed in 20 to 30 minutes took three hours because the princess demanded perfection in her garden.
When they finished, she came to the garden.
"What is your name?" she asked Kaida.
"My name is Kaida, and she is Yomi."
She didn't even look at Yomi and said, "You completed the work very early. Very good. As a reward, I will double the payment."
Just as they were about to be happy, she continued, "But on one condition." She pointed toward her red lips. "I want a kiss," she said, looking at Kaida.
Kaida's brain stopped working for a moment—the request was that ridiculous.
He looked at the lady again. She was around 18-19 years old, with a fit body, a slightly heart-shaped face, and her lips being the most striking feature. With an ample blossom, she looked gorgeous in her blue dress.
For a moment, Kaida even thought of accepting the request and going for the kiss, but he suddenly remembered the instructor's warning: "Be wary of the nobles."
"I'm sorry, I can't do that."
She was almost sure Kaida would accept her request, but when he said no, she turned to her butler.
"Give them the sign and throw them out of my property."
"Yes, my lady."
The butler signed the paper and sent them on their way.
Kaida looked at Yomi, only to find her a bit gloomy.
"Don't take her words to heart. Nobles are just like that. We still got so much money—let's eat something nice." Kaida tried to cheer her up.
"Let's go for a walk."
"Okay, once we submit this report, we'll go for a walk."
Once again, all of their clones were waiting at the academy gate for them. Kaida submitted the paper and dispersed all the clones.
"Let's go."
They walked in total silence for an hour, slowly reaching the top of the Hokage Rock.
Yomi sat in the corner, and Kaida sat beside her.
"Why did you take so long to say no to her?"
Kaida understood she was talking about the recent incident, but he couldn't exactly say that he wanted to kiss her… could he?
"Umm… yeah, I was just thinking of how to say no politely," he lied through his teeth.
"You wanted to kiss her," Yomi said angrily.
When she heard the request for a kiss, Yomi was 100% sure that Kaida would reject her. But when he didn't reply immediately, she looked at him and saw he was staring at the noble girl's lips. Yomi felt insecure, jealous, and angry, even though he denied it in the end.
Kaida wanted to kiss her.
"Am I right?"
"Hah! Yes, I'm sorry." Seeing that he couldn't lie, he outright accepted it.
"You moron, asshole, fatass," Yomi said, looking away.
After five minutes, she mumbled something inaudible.
"What?" Kaida asked.
"..." Again, something inaudible.
"Can you please say it a little louder?"
"I LOVE YOU, YOU MORON, AND I WILL KILL YOU IF YOU KISS SOMEONE BEFORE ME!" she shouted.
"...…" This time, Kaida was silent. He didn't know Yomi was so brave. He had wanted to say that he loved her too, but he didn't have the courage.
"I love you too," Kaida said. Didn't know what to do in the moment, he just let go of his body and his mind went off,
He moved his face closer to hers until they could feel each other's breath.
Yomi closed her eyes.
Kaida slowly placed his lips on hers and remained like that for some time. Then he began gently sucking her lower lip, then her upper lip. Yomi was too shy to move.
The kiss lasted one minutes. Though it was the first kiss for both of them, When they separated, Yomi was completely red, and Kaida was on cloud nine, too happy to think of anything else. He had just had his first kiss.
He hugged Yomi, and they sat like that for quite some time. There Relationship has finally became official, till now they both knew that they liked each other but never told each other that, now everything changes
