章節 59: Special mission

"Oh? So I am getting this?" I acted surprised on seeing the rank-C examination mission.

In these few past days, I have been doing some missions from adventurer's guild and today I am finally taking the rank up exam for C rank.

"What do you mean?" Lilith asked while floating above me.

"Nothing in particular."

"Come on, don't be like that. What kind of mission is it?" She persisted.

"Just a bodyguard mission." I walked to the mission computer and looked at the mission information.

After memorizing the information on the screen, I retrieved my ID and left the Adventurers' Guild.

I called a taxi and gave the driver a specific address.

The driver's eyebrows lifted slightly after hearing it, but he didn't ask any questions.

Half an hour later, I got out of the taxi and approached the address from the mission.

"There's something ominous about this place." Lilith said as we approached the castle-sized building behind the massive gates.

Sometime later, I pressed the doorbell at the gates.

A calm voice resounded the next moment, "Hello, this is the Scarlet Household. How may we assist you on this fine day?"

"Hello, my name is Drake, and I am here for the special mission."

"Ah, Mister Drake. We have been anticipating your arrival. Please, come inside."

Beep!

A noise resounded as the metal gates began opening by itself.

I walked into the territory and approached the castle in the distance.

Before I could even arrive at the building, I noticed the front door opening, and an old man wearing a butler uniform stepped outside.

This old man had a head-full of white hair, and his eyes appeared to be closed from a distance, but when I got close enough, I could tell that it was actually slightly opened.

"This humble one's name is Edwin, and I am a loyal servant of the Scarlet Household. I will be giving you a brief explanation of your mission before you begin. Please follow me."

I silently nodded before following Edwin to the guest room that was larger than our entire dorm room back in the academy.

Once we were seated, Edwin began to speak, "Tell me, Mister Drake, what do you know about this mission?"

"I am supposed to guard someone for the next three days, right?"

"That is correct. Your mission is to stay by my Young Lady, Lia Scarlet's side, for the next three days. However, your mission isn't as simple as 'guarding'. You see, the Young Lady is a little special. She's not very social, and she hates it when people look at her face, so try to avoid eye contact with her. She might get a little aggressive if you do, but you are not allowed to lay your hands on her. If you harm even a hair on her body, we have all the rights to execute you."

"I told you there's something off about this place. My intuition was right."

I could hear Lilith chuckling behind me.

"Alright, anything else I should know before I start the mission?" I then asked.

"No, that's all. The only thing I have left to say is— good luck, and stay safe." Edwin said before standing up and walking to the door, gesturing for me to follow him.

After spending a few minutes navigating through the large mansion and the long hallways, we eventually stopped in front of a large metal door that looked vastly different from the other rooms in the building.

"Are you ready?" Edwin asked me.

"Yes, I am." I nodded my head.

Once the door was fully opened, I stepped inside the room with Edwin closing the door behind me.

A slight grin formed on my face subconsciously when I saw the interior of the room. All of the walls were made of metal, almost like the training rooms in the academy, and there were blood splatters on every wall.

There was no furniture in the room except a large metal bed, and sitting on this large bed with her back facing me was a petite figure with silky black hair that flowed down her back like a waterfall.

"Are you my new playmate?" The figure suddenly spoke in a nonchalant voice.

When I noticed that she was turning her head, I kept focusing on her.

She was a total beauty, and breathtakingly so.

She had a doll-like face with skin so smooth and pure that it was like porcelain. Her eyes were round and innocent-looking, but her gaze was sharp and filled with intelligence. However, the most shocking feature was the color of her eyes, which seemed to have been dyed in blood.

They were crimson, just like Lilith, who was floating right beside her at this moment, almost as though she wanted me to compare the two of them.

When the young lady saw no reactions on my face, she calmly stood from the bed and walked around around the bed before walking towards me with slow and steady steps.

Seeing the young lady standing up, I could finally see her height, and she was just slightly taller than Nina Wraith, being about a head and half shorter than me.

Once the young lady stood a few feet in front of me, she stopped walking and tilted her head slightly to look into my eyes.

"You're not afraid of me? Are you actually blind? Don't you see my crimson eyes?" She asked me in a calm voice.

"I see them just fine. Why would I be afraid of you just because of your eyes?"

"Because all vampires have red eyes. Aren't you afraid that I might be a vampire?" The young lady suddenly retrieved a long black dagger from out of thin air, and in a quick motion, she brought it right in front of my neck.

"Well, are you a vampire?" I suddenly asked her in a calm voice.

The young lady didn't immediately respond to me.

After a moment of silence, she lowered her dagger and said in a clear voice, "No, I am not a vampire."

"You're a weird one. You know, the previous 102 people that came before you all drew their weapon when they saw my eyes for the first time. Do you want to know what I did to them?" she suddenly asked.

I looked at the blood spatters in the room without moving my head and said, "Let me hear it."

A new expression suddenly appeared on the young lady's beautiful face for the first time, and it was a dangerous smile that almost looked inhuman, "I didn't just kill them. I tortured them until their last breath."

Yep. Now that's exactly my type.

I stared straight at her crimson eyes.

"Can you stop staring at me so intensively? It feels weird…" she suddenly said in a low voice.

"Sorry… I couldn't look away since your eyes are so mesmerizing."

The young lady's eyes widened slightly after hearing my words.

"You think my eyes are pretty? I don't believe you. Everyone else is disgusted by it, including my own family, but they fear it more than they are disgusted."

I smiled and said, "That's the fun part. Ain't it?"

"…"

The young lady turned silent for a moment before speaking again, "I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Lia— Lia Scarlet, and I am the second youngest child in the Scarlet Household. You can just call me Lia."

I nodded, "Pleased to meet you, Lia."
