Chapter 192 - Im not a parrot (2/2)

While the crowd who was watching the spectacle before them was suddenly confused at what is happening, especially when they heard the word ”assassin” and ”assassination”.

But the folks weren't stupid to easily believe that Michael is an assassin. After all, who the hell is an assassin that wields a sword and comes to kill his target in broad daylight in front of a huge crowd? That would be just asking for his death, except if that person is someone who doesn't regard his life at all.

”I thought he's someone who came here to confess his love?”

”But he doesn't look like an assassin for me”

”And that's what you'd call an assassin, dumbas*!”

The crowd around them started to whisper among themselves, but they didn't leave because there are already a group of soldiers coming from different directions heading towards their location.

While those folks who can't hear anything from where they are have confused expressions on their faces as they looked at each other, as they truly don't know what is happening.

”What do you think is happening? Who the hell is that guy anyway?”

”Don't tell me he confessed his love to Lady Beatrice!? That sure is bold of him!”

”Move”

”But my lady! He could-”

”Move! I won't say it the second time!”

Beatrice coldly said as she narrowed her eyes towards her knights.

”As you wish”

The women quickly made a path for her, but their attentions are once again directed towards Michael, their eyes oozing with danger and warning.

Beatrice walked forward and stopped just a meter in front of Michael.

Michael smiled and offered his hand and said, ”It's so nice to meet you, Miss”

”It's a pleasure to meet you too, Mr..?” Beatrice replied as both of them shook each other's hands.

”Shadow, or just Shado, it sounds cooler that way” Michael laughed.

Meanwhile.

”The heck is happening anyway? Why are they shaking hands? Do they know each other?”

”Don't tell me that guy is one of high status!?”

”Impossible, he's clearly an adventure just from his attire”

”Shut up and let's just watch. It's not like it's our business! It would be more interesting if a fight happens”

*****

After some little talk with each other, Beatrice took Michael to their state in the northern part of the city, where there is a tall wall surrounding her family's mansion with guards keeping a lookout in every direction.

'Pretty neat place' Michael thought as he and Beatrice, along with some of her knights passed through the gate of their state.

Where Michael was immediately greeted by the sight of different animals playing around the grassy fields on both sides of the pathways they are moving on, with tall trees standing upright here and there.

”What do you think of my family's home, Mr. Shado?” Beatrice asked as she turned towards Michael.

”You have a pretty good place. I quite like it”
