Chapter 26: Look alike

" My name is Agata Werner, I will be in your care for a week." Said the girl standing in front of us with an elegant bow.

So this is the daughter of the Werner family, I must say she is more refined and elegant than I imagined her to be.

Everyone in my team was in awe when met with Agata Werner in person, well they did have all the reason to be in Awe.

As no one was introducing themselves, I took it upon myself to introduce myself.

"Hello, Miss. Agata, My name is Grey. I will try with the best of my ability to not disappoint you." I said, But when I thought about what I said, I realized that it was kind of cringe.

For some reason, Agata was looking at me with a very observant look.

"What happened Miss. Agata, is there any problem?" Asked the Butler.

"No, It's just that I feel like I have seen master Grey somewhere before." Said Agata, her face looked like she was trying to pinpoint where she had seen me.

This is not good, I was thinking about all the time I met noble families of any sort while staying in my old mansion.

I am sure we have never met before today.

It will be pretty bad if she finds out who I am.

"I think I have a pretty common face, It can be easily mistaken for anyone," I said.

"Actually white hair and purple eyes are not so common traits. I realized your facial features are pretty unique when I take a good look at your face." Said Lili as brought her face closer to mine as if she was reading my face.

Lili's facial expression changed as if she realized something, " Oh my apologies Miss. Agata, I haven't introduced myself.".

Lili's lowered her head for a slight bow and spoke " My name is Lili, the daughter of the Jung family. It would be my honor to make acquaintance with you."

"No, the pleasure is mine." Replied Agata, with an elegant smile.

Introducing each other in the noble family is a kind of pain. Even I had to do it for quite a while, but my mom and dad weren't that strict about it.

"That's why you looked familiar," Said Agata, she looked happy about it "You look just like Mrs. Alice."

Shit....

"Mrs. Alice?" I asked, I tried to play dumb.

"You don't know Hero Alice?" exclaimed Frank from behind me.

"I don't, who is it?" I asked, I will continue to play dumb till hell.

"That's why I never associate myself with a commoner like you –" He paused in between as he realized that he was in the presence of Agata.

"Ahem." He cleared his throat before turning to face Agata.

"Hello Miss Agata, it's been a while since we last met." Said Frank.

Apparently, they know each other.

"Yes, it's been a while, Master Frank." Replied Agata.

Agata turned to look towards me and started explaining.

"It's rare to see someone who doesn't know Mrs. Alice, But I will explain...

Mrs. Alice is considered one of the greatest warriors to ever have existed. She was considered the hero of humanity, it's a great feat considering hero is the title only given to summoned one.

Every boy and girl in Amay nation has a dream to be like Hero Alice, she is the hero to all of us and she is the hero of mine.

From the moment I met her as a kid, she shined brightly for me. I look up to her and maybe someday I want to carry on her legacy."

Her facial expression changed to a pained one "Unfortunately she died three years ago, it was the saddest day for all of humanity. She was loved by everyone, it was the saddest day for me too." Said Agata, She carried a sad smile on her face.

It felt good hearing someone talk about my mom with so much respect and care.

"She must have been the best, I am sorry that I didn't know about her," I said.

"It's okay, but I am surprised that there is someone out there who looks just like Hero Alice. If you would have had black hair instead of a white one, you would have looked exactly like her. Maybe, male version of her." Said Agata, she looked really excited while speaking about my mom.

The butler stepped forward and said " Today you guys have been gathered just for the introduction and for a chance to know each other and Miss. Agata. From tomorrow the real commission will begin."

I forgot to mention this, but all the participants for the commission were chosen rather young, like around the age of eleven to fifteen.

I think there is some other additional purpose for the commission.

"Today you guys can spend time with each other in the training ground and get used to each other's power." Said Butler,

He turned around to face Agata and said "Miss, you have been also ordered by master Gerver to participate with them in the training grounds."

26-2

Later we were all taken to the training ground. This commission is becoming odder and odder, But it doesn't matter as I am getting paid heavily.

I heard a voice from beside me.

"Lucky for you, Miss. Agata said that you look just like hero Alice. I heard hero Alice was very beautiful." It was Lili's Voice.

"So you think that I am beautiful?" I asked.

"No!" she disagreed strongly, after a second of pause she continued "On a second thought, you are kind of handsome."

Her face was red and she was trying her best to hide her embarrassment.

Now that I take a closer look at her feature, she has black long hair which was tied to a high Ponytail with green-colored eyes.

I nudged my elbow into her as I said "I thought you had a boyfriend.".

She nudged her elbow back "I never said that I had a boyfriend?".

"Makes sense, who would take that clown as a boyfriend. What was his name again? yes, Frank!." I said.

As I was saying this I felt a touch on my shoulder, so I turned around to find out that it was Frank.

He opened his mouth and said "The white scarf around your neck really suits well with your hair, your sense of style is pretty good. Maybe.... Can you... help me with how to look good with my attire."

A big smile formed on my face as I said "Sure! I will be glad to help you.".

As I said that I turned to face Lily and said " That is a great guy. Frank was his name, right?"

"huh? Just a second ago you were saying he is a clown." Said Lily with a sarcastic tone.

"Did I?" I asked.
