Thalia immediately returned with Asteri's marble.
"Everything has been confirmed, this is the reward and 150 points have been added to you to level up." Thalia said, giving Asteri the fifty silver coins for the mission accomplished.
"Thanks Thalia, a curiosity, can you tell me how many points I need to go up to grade E?" Asteri asked.
"You need 1,000 points to get to grade E." she answered him.
"Thank you very much, then I think I'll take another mission." but before going to the board Asteri came a little closer to Thalia "don't forget your promise, this weekend is okay with you?"
Thalia laughed as she remembered the promise "I'm free yes" the girl replied anyway.
"All right then, this weekend." Asteri said with a smile.
"Mm ..." Thalia nodded, giving Allatu a furtive glance, but Allatu always had that smile.
Asteri and Allatu walked to the bulletin board and reached it.
"Flirting with another woman especially in front of me, you are very shameless." Allatu said.
"Why are you sorry?" Asteri asked.
"Actually no, it will help me to have a few more sisters to compete with you in bed." Allatu stated.
"Ahaha" Asteri laughed shortly.
Looking in the bulletin board Asteri always points towards those of grade E, there was one that intrigued Asteri. It was a mission that had to be carried out here in Quisque, at night apparently a being is acted out who assassinates the poor people who walk and even some guards died because of it. Citizens feel terror at night and never go out.
"Interestingly, this killer terrifies a town of 1,000 people who knows what kind it is ..." Asteri said.
"Do we want to find out?" Allatu asked with a smile.
"Why not and then it's 200 points and a gold coin as a reward, it's worth it." Asteri answered.
"Alright." Allatu took the mission sheet and they both headed for Thalia's counter.
"We would like to take over this mission." Asteri said as Allatu handed the paper.
"The night killer huhh ... he's been creating a lot of chaos lately, but I see you will handle it together that's good, but do you know the rewards will be split?" Thalia asked.
"We didn't know but it's not a problem, as far as gold is concerned you can give it directly to him." Allatu said squeezing Asteri's hand making him see clearly to Thalia.
Thalia ticked his eye quickly but did not point it out "okay then I think there are no problems" saying this Thalia walked towards the usual door.
"Did you really have to do it? You're a bad girl." Asteri said.
"Sure, I said I agreed but I never said it would be easy for her." then Allatu went to Asteri's ear "later you can punish this bad girl."
"It's a matter of education so I will definitely do it, my dear." Asteri answered.
Finally Thalia went out the door and gave the okay to the two who started to exit the guild but could not start the mission, the time was too early and Asteri did not know where to stop in the meantime.
'What to do?' she thought.
"What's going on, honey?" Allatu asked, bowing his head.
"Nothing, the problem is that I don't know where to go while we wait for the night."
"No problem for that or already booked a room here while I was stalking you." Allatu said.
"You are very prepared my little one, I like you more and more." Asteri said, taking her by the side of her.
"And this is only the beginning." she replied.
"But first why don't we take a tour of the city?" Allatu suggested.
"Sure why not." Asteri agreed.
The couple began a walk through the town admiring the landscape that surrounded them. Merchants tried to attract as many customers as possible, taverns hosted travelers or citizens for meals, bells rang for every person who walked through shop doors and more.
"And lively during the day, as if this killer didn't exist." Asteri reflected.
"We expect the night time to approach." Allatu said.
"Yeah ..." brrrr suddenly felt Asteri's stomach growl "how about we eat something first?" he proposed.
"Haha sure, my darling is very hungry."
"Eheh" Asteri chuckled.
The couple settled in a tavern they had spotted a little while ago, and as they made a good impression on them they chose it.
A pretty waitress approached their table. Asteri looked at this girl, she was dressed in the usual maid look, she had orange hair and beautiful eyes of the same color, a perfectly beautiful face and her uniform left room to see her neckline which was a nice medium size. But Asteri turned the sight of her to her beautiful eyes, which she did too, her parents looked at each other as if to get to know each other and did not speak or move an inch. Seeing all this Allatu rolled his eyes and coughed falsely to bring them back to reality.
"O-oh sorry dear customers, you've already decided what to order." he apologized bowing his head and asking for their orders.
"Yes, we've already decided, two dishes of venison and some wine, thank you," Asteri said with a smile, taking his favorite food.
"Perfect, your order will arrive soon and sorry again." the girl said.
"Don't worry, nothing happened ahh ..." Asteri said waiting for something.
"Ah my name is Shallistera, nice to meet you." she introduced herself.
"I am Asteri, my pleasure is she is Allatu." she returned Asteri.
"Pleased to meet you Miss Shallistera." Allatu said.
"Pleased to meet you, as mentioned before your dishes will arrive shortly." having said this, Shallistera went to deliver the order received.
"Pretty right? Another future sister I presume." Allatu said with a mischievous smile.
"Are you so sure, bad girl?" Asteri asked.
"Who knows ..." the mysterious Allatu said.
'She's not completely wrong after all she also seems like a good girl, but she is only at the first degree of the white core, if I have to take her with me I have to make sure she grows.' thought Asteri.
