Harem Overlord

"I want a 6.9 inches breadstick." Eira went near the person sitting on the billing counter and whispered in a low voice.

The person nodded and pointed at a door with the label, 'Only Employees allowed'. Eira and Azrael went to stand beside the door and when no one was looking quietly slid inside.

"That was quite a different password than what I imagined it to be." Azrael commented as Eira gave him a small smile.

"The sect master has a weird sense of humor." She said as they entered another door that led them to a stairway going underground.

Eira and Azrael quickly descended below as the latter was fascinated by what he saw. Around the stairway, the walls were made from hard concrete infused with spiritual energy and had a gray color.

As they went lower, they appeared in a wide-open hall with many stalls. The entire place was made from marble and even the ceiling was glistening with it.

The stalls were full with people selling different types of weapons, poisons, armors, clothes, food, etc.

"How do you buy stuff here?" Azrael asked as Eira took out a core stone.

"If you want to buy anything here, you should at least have a core stone. You can take up assassinations and bounties at the mission stall and you get paid with 80% of the amount while the sect takes the rest of it. You are provided with basic stuff for a mission such as clothes to blend in, a weapon of a personal choice like daggers dipped in poison, food and sleeping bag for low-level cultivators, and a poisonous pill in case you get caught.

For anything other than that, you will have to use your own money to buy it. New members on the other hand receive 50 core stones as an entrance gift to buy extra stuff for themselves but I don't think that you will spend the core stones on extra stuff." Eira deduced as Azrael smiled but didn't say anything.

"Can we please fast forward your memories a little?" In Azrael's library, Kai muttered in an annoyed tone.

"Is my life that boring to you?" Azrael said while moving back as though he was hurt.

Kai's eyes gleamed with annoyance as he lifted his hand and white flames danced along his palm.

"Keep those stupid flames away from me! I will fast forward all right." Death added in a panicked voice as Kai extinguished the flames.

"Honestly, people will start thinking that you are the real Death and I am just your sidekick." Azrael muttered under his breath.

p "That's cause you are too nice of a person to be Death. You know what, I will call you Azrael from today onwards." Kai added as Azrael looked away before containing his tale.

"Anyways, I joined the sect, took up some missions, bought a lot of cultured books, read them, spent a little time training with Eira, and them repeated this. But the real thing happened another decade later." Azrael said as the memories continued.

"Argh, I am running low on money. Guess I will have to take up another mission." Azrael said in an annoyed tone as he stood up from his spot near the peaceful lake and teleported back to the sect.

He muttered the password to the guy at the counter and went below to the hall. He saw a huge crowd gathered near the mission stall as his eyes suddenly lit up.

A large crowd only gathered when there was a very high-paid mission with a little less difficulty. This meant that it was a golden opportunity for him.

Azrael had been an assassin for a decade now and was considered one of the best assassins in the sect.

Eira was the only one who showed any competition to him and both of them had many challenges to see who would come out as the winner.

Sometimes Azrael would win whereas sometimes Eira would defeat him. They had become good friends over this much time but Eira still didn't share any information about her past with him.

Though he was curious about it, he didn't force her to reveal anything to him. Other than that, they had been training with each other for five years now and both of them knew each other's best trucks though Eira still managed to surprise him.

Thinking about this, Azrael made his way to the mission stall as the crowd suddenly parted away to let him check the mission.

"Kill Himari, the second daughter of the ruler of the kingdom of diamonds. Rewards include one hundred thousand soul stones and a special protection provided by the kingdom of sapphire." Azrael read in a surprised tone as the rewards were too good to be true but he knew why that was.

The kingdom of diamonds was the biggest continent in the realm of jewels and was also the most wealthiest continent.

After that came the continent of sapphire which was the continent on which the sect was situated in.

The two continents rivaled each other for wealth and the continent of sapphire had made a marriage proposal to the kingdom of sapphire by trying to make the continent of diamonds rulers daughter, Himari, marry the crown prince of the continent of sapphire.

The continent of diamonds had openly rejected the continent of sapphire's request and the latter was now looking for revenge.

'Though this is going to be a very tough mission, some foolish people will definitely take this because of the rewards.' Azrael sighed in disappointment as he thought about the mission.

His eyes then suddenly caught Eira's moving figure who was dashing away quietly and her face was hidden.

Azrael frowned as he teleported outside the sect and followed Eira. She went into a forest and suddenly stopped.

"Come out Azrael, I know that you are there." She said out loud as Azrael appeared forward and was stunned to see that silent tears were trickling down Eira's cheeks.

"Why are you crying?" He asked as Eira wiped out her tears and looked at Azrael with a serious expression.

"It's cause Himari is my sister." She said in a clear tone as Azrael was left silent.
