Chapter 17 - Medusa and Celeste (2/2)

”Yes they are yours,” said Glaze with a smile, this became more of a headache than he realized.

Everyone including those two was a little scared as they were called out, as they stepped forwards Glaze asked them their name.

”We don't have a name, Master,” said the both looking down.

System, show me their stats again.

Glaze looked at the one who had the talent of Assassination as he said” I'll give you a name then, I name you Erebi” thought he as he based the name on Erebus, the Greek God of Darkness. As he looked at the other who had the talent of speech and charisma he thought she would be perfect to lead the information gathering and intelligence organization, ” And I name you Athena” said he naming her after the Greek Goddess of Wisdom.

They appeared shocked as they were named

He walked towards Athena as he said ” Take this armor and clothing” as he personally gave her her armor and clothes ”You will form and lead the Organization Celeste, go and talk to Marzia and start your training” said he as he looked at the remaining women standing behind just staring curiously at what was happening.

He used the system to find out the talents of all the remaining women who were all very low leveled, he picked 9 who were talented in Speech and related skills and pulled them aside, ”You will now work under Athena, get your clothing and armor, and start training , this palace is your home from today” said he as he looked at them.

They bowed and left with Athena to meet their teacher and were still under shock that they got such a life they never dreamed of.

Now, only 10 people remained, ”Erebi , you will form the secret organization Medusa, your job will be ȧssassination, all of you have a talent for ȧssassination and related skills and I will train you to become the most terrifying ȧssassins to have ever existed” said he as he looked into their eyes.

”W-will you really make us strong? Can I become strong?” asked Erebi as she looked into Glaze's eyes for the first time with hope.

”Yes, I can make you strong, so strong you can kill everyone in your path, everyone who wronged you will die under your blade, if you follow me,” said Glaze as he pulled back the long hair of Erebi and looked into her eyes with a smile.

”I will follow you, Master, I will follow you to the depths of the underworld, I will train hard and won't disappoint you,” said she with a determined look

”Very well, take this armor, this is just for you as you are the leader of Medusa and the strongest out of everyone,” said Glaze as he took out the Divine Assassin Armor, Boots, and Blade. As these Master Stage weapons appeared they had a terrifying aura but it was not all suppressing like the other Master Stage weapons but only to those who noticed it or looked at it, it was very peculiar.

As Erebi looked at this Master Stage weapon and equipment she was shocked, not sure if she should take something so incredibly expensive but then she looked into the calm eyes of Glaze and took the armor, boots, and blade.

”Equip it,” said Glaze

As she equipped the Divine Assassin's Armor, Divine Assassin's Boots and Divine Assassin's Blade her entire aura vanished, it felt like she didn't exist to the rest of the people even though they could see her right in front of them , Glaze smiled as he looked at this pitch-black armor with purple highlights. She truly looked like the merchant of death in this armor.

”You won't be able to use these properly without this , take this” said Glaze as he took out the Assassination Magic Book that was pitch black and had a dark aura around it , as she took it out of his hands and started inspecting it he turned towards the rest of the 9 women who were shocked and amazed looking at their older sister, ”So, are you willing to follow me ?” asked he.

”Yes, we will train hard and kill your enemies, Master,” said they as they came forward.

”This is all for you,” said Glaze as he took out the Assassin's Armor, Blade, and Boots.

They came forward excitedly as they took these and started to equip them. As they came together they truly looked like a terrifying group of ȧssassins, without any actual skill yet of course.

”Take this Assassin Magic Book, and take this crest to identify yourself, it is imbued with my magic so it can't be faked,” said he as he gave them the Magic Books and the crest which had a 9 headed serpent in purple with a black background and a golden outline as it flowed with his mana.

”Start experimenting by yourself for today, I will show you the basics tomorrow,” said Glaze as he walked out.

”Yes, Master,” said they as they bowed in unison.
