My sister would also be there.
That was basically something that one could take for granted, but for me, it was both a blessing and a curse at the same time.
I could heal myself, but at the same time, I had to remember that she was the cause of my death in the original novel.
I could only hope that the butterfly's wings had brewed up a storm greater than anything I could have ever imagined, changing the future so that it was unrecognizable.
Sighing, I looked up from the letter, to the scenery outside of the room I was currently staying in.
I had left the Pantheon a while ago because I had some business in the city, but now, I was starting to miss it a little.
The only good thing was that I had finally been able to get enough sleep for the past week, and so the ever present dark circles under my eyes had finally disappeared.
And now, looking at the nighttime scenery from above the city in one of the best hotels around, I slowly allowed myself to morph into a girl.
For the past week, I had spent most of my time in this girl form, and so now, I was finally fully integrated with it, having been able to adapt my fighting style to the changes in my body.
After all, many new possibilities had opened up for me, with the addition of added flexibility and this thing called a "Woman's Rage" that both Char and Gwen had told me about, but that I had yet to experience myself.
This girl form was actually pretty handy overall, and with most of my operations for the past week being at nighttime, I had been able to utilize it to its fullest potential.
I had pretended to be weak, only to backstab, I had pretended to be slutty, only to chop off, and I had pretended to be pure, only to show the face of a true devil.
Now, I was actually pretty sure that most in the underground knew about me, as I was named the infamous, "Thousand Faces Demoness", by the Gathering of Unsavories, a place where the deepest in the underground world of the capital city gathered to rule the common people from the shadows.
Honestly, I had shunned the title at first, but the fear it brought... now THAT could be called addicting.
Of course, with all this fame came both a bounty on my head and an invitation to join the Gathering, but obviously, I had rejected, and that had been what led to the present situation.
Well, this was the one last order of business for me to take care of here in the city, and finally, afterwards, I would be able to go to the wedding.
"Gwen, have the unsavories found out about us yet?"
"No, Young Master, but they have tracked us to this hotel and have set up an offensive perimeter around it. They plan to flush us out."
"And the children?"
"They're instigating the people in the slums as we speak."
"..."
"Char still hasn't found out?"
"No, her most pressing concern is the wedding after all, we can move freely for the next day or so, before she returns and has her "eye" on everything."
"Then let us complete the task tonight."
Swinging a black, hooded cloak over my back, I let Gwen carefully tie the strings that held it onto my body before we both left, Gwen swinging the hood of her already put on cloak over her head.
"I'll take the right half."
"Alright, Young Master."
Using the magically operated lifts, we both descended onto the first floor, in which promptly, we both left the building and headed to our designated half, with only one goal on both our minds.
"Kill."
Saying this out loud, I startled the ones hiding in the shadows before suddenly, a projectile was launched at me from an unsavory that had a much faster reaction time than his peers.
"Clang!"
The trajectory of the throwing knife suddenly changed in the middle of the air, as soon as it reached a distance of three meters away from me, and suddenly, the surrounding area was devoid of life, as my blurred, black figure was already heading to the next area.
Similar scenes were made across a half of the city, as groups of unsavories were killed in an instant, none the wiser of who their attacker was.
Of course, the attacker was the one deemed as the biggest threat to their organization, but they never knew that.
As for the other half of the city, well, one second, the unsavories were there, and the next second, all of them were gone, as not even ashes remained.
This just showed a fraction of the terrifying power and precision that Gwen wielded in her hands, and honestly, after hearing her reporting back to me that she had eradicated all the unsavories on her side of the city just a second after I had finished the first group, I had gulped a little bit in fear, but immediately suppressed it.
In the end, only the resolve in my heart had gotten stronger, as even after eradicating thousands of people, I wasn't even tired.
But, now that our task was done, it was time for us to leave the city.
"We'll be leaving right now, Gwen, Char can't come back to the city until after the children have finished their tasks. We can meet her halfway between the capital city and the estate."
There was no need for further words to be exchanged between us as Gwen immediately appeared next to me before picking me up in a comfortable princess carry and then whisking me off to the Endendyk Estate.
"Also, make sure to avoid getting close to my sister, you know what could happen, right?"
"Yes, Young Master. This morning, your sister left using the main road to the estate, but we'll be using a lesser known road. It's all already been set up by Miss Charlotte. We'll reach the Estate as the morning sun rises and the first rooster crows."
Hearing this, I fell into deep thought, as I now only needed to wait.
I was heading back to my home, no, it wasn't my home anymore, it was now merely the place that I had first been transmigrated to, the place where I had spent the first ten years of this life.
The wedding was going to be held there, with exactly a hundred people as witnesses to the union between my "dad" and his new wife.
As for me, the only thing I could wonder about was,
'I wonder, has anything truly changed?'
1/5 for today.
