Chương 4: A Thief?
She sighed and looked around as the idea struck her.
When they had come in before, she had seen the man press the bell and the guard and servant had come in.
She walked towards the bell and shook it. After that she hid behind the door and waited patiently for it to open.
Once the door was opened by a young girl and a muscular man with their head bowed, she used the dagger to slice the neck of the guard while hitting the girl with the vase on the table near the door before she could make a noise.
She held the body of both of them, afraid that it would make noise when it fell.
She did not care about their life since she felt it was just a game and they were not real beings.
There was no remorse in her eyes as she looked at both of them, not sure whose clothes she should take.
In the end, she chose the dress of the guard. Wearing the clothes of the man would give her some advantage.
In the dark being the part of it, she had learnt it from such a young age that even her silhouette could not feel her presence. The way she hid behind the pillars and crossed the door of the building with the pretense of patrolling outside when she met fellow guardians did not let anyone doubt her intentions.
Once she had crossed the door and was running out, she heard the sound of shrieks and gasps and shook her head.
It took them a long time to know that he was dead.
He must have been so popular with his time taking that no one had checked him this far.
But it was not her concern. Where was she supposed to go now and she could not roam in the uniform of the guard of the dead men or they would surely doubt her.
She needs to change her clothes. She had hardly walked a few lanes in the dark when she heard the sound of hooves coming closer.
"Hey, have you seen a woman coming towards this direction?" aske the guards on the horse to the men on the roads.
The man looked confused and shook their head when Ruth took a breath of relief. She was glad that she chose to wear the uniform of a man.
"A girl had run away after killing our master. The whole empire is searching for her. If you find any girl with dirty blonde hair and hazel eyes, then inform us." they threatened the commoners before looking for her at other places.
If she kept walking, she was not sure if she could hide for so long since she didn't know the paths.
If it had been her world, she would have already gotten rid of all the evidence and was lying in her warm bed.
She cursed her luck as she chose a trash character to play.
She walked a few steps more when she heard others talking about an inn nearby where they were going to spend a night.
She checked the pocket of the guard and smiled evilly when she found a few gold coins. Since she had only stolen precious items from that jerk, she didn't know what money looked like in this time period.
Once she was done, she walked into the inn and rented a room. A young boy helped her in showing the door while she scanned the whole structure of the inn and the door of each room.
"If you need anything else, please press the bell. Sir knight." said the young boy when she nodded her head afraid that her voice and words might give awa her identity.
Once she was alone, she opened the door and scanned the nearby one.
She walked while looking around and placed her ears on the door, trying to hear the voices from inside.
She could hear the sound of pouring water repeatedly with strong force and she smirked,
Taking out the pins from her hair, she twisted it a few times. Thanks to her years of practice, she was able to open it soon.
Once she was done, she opened the closet and found a small bag which only had one piece of clothing.
She didn't think much of it as she picked up the suit and wore it before closing the door behind her and locking it.
She changed her clothes with these fine ones. The cloth was so soft that she felt like she was flying into the air and holding the clouds.
Once she was done, she threw the clothes of the guard on the bed and then opened the window.
With the blink of a second, she disappeared without a trace.
Cyfrin had just opened the shower when he heard the sound of footsteps in his room. They were so slow that he was sure an ordinary person would have missed it but he was anything but ordinary.
His eyes turned sharper instantly as he opened the door and found the main door closing carefully.
Did the thief already left? But it had hardly been a few seconds when he entered.
How could a thief steal this fast, he walked out of her bath hanging a towel around his lower body as he checked the room.
There was only one thing missing from the room. It was his single pair of clothes. But if the thief had paid even a bit of attention, he would have noticed so much gold in the bag too!
He sighed. This was not the time to praise the beauty of a thief but to worry about what he was going to wear.
He looked at the clothes he had taken off before. They were smeared with blood and dust.
He was going to burn them but now..
"Looks like i have to wear them a bit more until I found my clothes thief or a new pair of clothes."
