The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World

Chapter 101 Aiden And Emma





"What are those? I've never heard of it," said Emma who for once was as clueless as Aiden about something.

"It's quite simple actually, you'll get to be with the other VIPs in a suite reserved for all of you to be in. That can be great to form connections with others. However, that's not very enticing now is it?"

Responding to his question both Emma and Aiden nodded with Finrod not caring about this conversation as he didn't have any funds to participate either way.

"The most important thing about the VIP Entries is the discount that you can have while being a VIP in an auction. All VIPs have a discount of 15% on the price they buy an item."

"For example, let's say you bought something at the price of 100 000 Credits, you will only pay 85 000 Credits which considering the grand schemes of things, it is quite a big advantage."

Aiden instantly realized that this wasn't something to be neglected as it would help him buy more things in the auction, as he only had 30 000 Credits to spend.

Well, "only" was a big word as 30 000 Credits was a big sum, after all.

"Then, I guess we have no choice but to pass this level five of the challenge they created," said Emma trying to motivate Aiden a little, who still looked as dead as one could be.

Then, time passed as they moved up in the line getting closer and closer to the challenge.

But there was one thought that didn't leave Aiden's mind this whole time, what was this challenge even about?

They had no way of knowing this as all they saw was a little portal that people entered and left after some time.

But the announcer hadn't revealed anything about it, he had only revealed the reward.

Nonetheless, they continued advancing with Aiden trying to figure out what this challenge would be about.

Then, after walking a little Emma, Aiden, and Finrod arrived in front of the portal with the announcer right beside it.

Gerald couldn't participate as he was told by the announcer that he was too old and to assure fairness he couldn't try.

Actually, the real reason was that the announcer had felt that Gerald wasn't an inexperienced person and he was almost sure that he would have been able to complete the first five levels without much problem.

Not wanting to give his VIP Entries, the man quickly dismissed Gerald.

"Want to go first?" asked Emma to Aiden.

But before he could answer, the announcer interrupted her from answering.

"Woah, before that, give me my Credits. You think this is a charity," said the man, smiling seeing their faces.

Of course, both Emma and Aiden had no idea that they needed to pay to try and win the VIP Entries.

"How much is it?" asked Emma, not really minding as they had just received 30 000 Credits.

"Only a hundred."

Emma handed two hundred Credits for both her's and Aiden's participation but she didn't give enough for Finrod's participation.

Aiden only nodded as a thanks.

Maybe it wasn't clear until now, but it didn't look like she appreciated Finrod a lot.I think you should take a look at

Finrod noticed this and was mad but not at Emma. 

He was mad at Aiden because it was him who had caused her to change this way.

Still, he also handed one hundred Credits from his own personal balance.

"Great, great, but it's one person at a time, so who's going first?" asked the man repeating the question that Emma had asked before being interrupted.

Then, a small silence was created between the three of them, who kept looking at each other.

Finrod was the one who spoke first.

"I'll go first, I guess," he said walking forward in a proud manner as if he was proving something to others.

It was like he said that to prove to Emma that he was courageous, but he was quickly disappointed when he saw that she wasn't even looking at him.

She was actually still trying to make some conversation with Aiden who still responded the same way as usual with some "yes" and "no". 

Not even once had she looked at Finrod, it was as if he was invisible. 

This made it even clearer that Finrod held no importance for Emma.

But, still, he continued with his chest up walking right into the portal.

Aiden was actually happy that he had gone in first as he would be able to tell him what type of challenge it was.

He didn't believe that he was going to pass level five as no one had even done so while they waited in line.

"Aiden? Aiden? You there?" said Emma over and over again noticing that Aiden wasn't paying any attention to her once again.

Then, he looked at her without saying anything as she continued talking.

"So, as I was saying, what do you want to buy tomorrow at the auction?" she asked wondering if he actually was going to respond to her.

Aiden not finding anything wrong with the question decided to respond to her. 

It wasn't like he didn't like speaking to her anymore, it was more that he wouldn't talk with her about personal information as he didn't want a close relationship with her.

He didn't want to get too close to her as he knew that it would only be temporary since if the Nightshade family found out about him then they would take him back.

Well, probably.

"I'll try to buy a skill and if there isn't one that interests me then probably a new weapon. I'm not sure," he said as a smile appeared on Emma's face.

"So, now you're talking to me again, huh?" she said as it was the second time in a short lapse of time that he had formed a full sentence to talk to her.

"It's not that I don't want to talk to you, it's just that... your questions are a waste of time," he said clearly stating why he had stopped talking to her.
