The Sinner's Harem: Sins of the Anti-hero

Chapter 14: Ch 14 Leaving



Two days later, a large ship arrived at the island. It was a ship which was going to make its way towards the nearest country from here, Dragon Kingdom.

"I am back to square one, huh." I said looking at the broken heart locket with only its left side intact, making him aware that the only person who died there wasn't Kelvin.

Two more died because of the actions he had taken and the decisions he made as he just put that locket in his pocket and looked at the ocean.

When he came back from the cave, the officials had already calculated the results till then and Kelvin had a third place with 106 fishes, winning at total price money of 10 gold.

However, since the winner itself was absent, I, his helper was given a tenth of his reward, which process single gold coin have I wasn't discouraged or anything by that and converted it into silver and bronze.

With that money, I was able to pay up the broading price of the ship and am now on my way towards the place I no idea about, I don't even have a target in place.

All my mind has now is to get some drugs now which can number my emotions and stop my split personalities from acting up as I have started to feel that I am losing control over myself already.

It has only been half a week but maybe the intense nature of my feelings, the effects of the last injection I took was almost cut short by half.

"You look lost," Oliver said as he walked up beside me, as ai give him just one look, "And you look busy," I said as he just shakes hi head.

"Can't help it, a soldier just went missing after all, and there has been no news, witnesses, literally nothing." He said as he started smoking.

"I don't smoke," I said when he passed one to me, well more like I can easily develop cancer if I tried to smoke so it's 'I can't smoke'.

"So, where are you headed to,"

"I have no idea."

"Are you just travelling alone then?"

"I wish that was a correct statement."

"Don't you have any destination, or place to stay?" He asked, looking at me as I just signed and shaked my head.

"I have a place where I have to go, but I don't think I can go right now," After all, I have already realised the difference in me and a Warrior and I certainly can't just visit an academy for warrior as I am now.

For that, I need time and preparation, as well as proper planning if I have to execute the Assasination.

"Well, if you have no place, how about I offer you a job then?"

"Oh really? Now I am interested. What kind of job it is then?"

"Well, for now it's just normal household work, but when my son might attend the academy in Rose Empire, I want you to go as his Servant and be a bodyguard of sort, of course only if you are fine with it of co-"

"I'm in," I said, as soon as I heard Rose Empire, "But why me?" I asked, looking at him once more.

"It's because you have good eyes," He said giving his cigarette a big puff, "Instead of fighting and solving a problem, you can avoid a problem even before it reaches you."

"Hmm, is that so?" I said with a nod looking at the ocean again, I wonder when the genre of my life be slice of life, instead of dark.

It take us a whole day of sea travels but we finally reached our destination, Dragon City.

It is Oliver's home city and from what I have gathered, he is a soldier who works for the government, and was send on an official mission on that Island where he met me.

Not only that, it seems that he is also rich as the monthly salary he offered me is 5 gold coin which is five times the amount the government pays to newbie and non combatant Soldier.

But maybe I could understand why he did so, after all I have came to realise a fact that Warriors in this world are too important to work under someone else.

Not for me though, as I am not a warrior to begin with and have can do anything to complete my mission in this world... Well, that was what I thought when I first arrived but killing a friend sure was difficult.

After reaching this place, I looked around the city for a bit after Oliver passed me his address and my main focus was, as always on gathering information.

The library helped me with that a lot as even though it was expensive to use, I was able to get all the necessary information I needed about this world.

My first main focus was on Soul Flower as I have a lot of them, which then shift to Soul Core since Soul Flower gave birth to them.

After that came para-demons, the otherworldly beasts who has invaded this world and when a person who has soul core come in contact with a dead Para-demon before it disintegrate, he will awaken as a Soul Warrior.

Or if I have to say, at lowest Rank, a Soldier. These two conditions are necessary to meet, a Soul Core and a Dead Para-demon, no matter who killed it.

An intresting power system which make your enemy your power too but there is also theories that says that Para-demons also have same amount of dependency on humans with Soul core but there is no proof of it.

After that, I tried finding something which can help me keep my emotions in check and while searching for it, I made my way towards what could be my new house, and my new job... atleast for the time being.

Not a great chapter accounting to me, I myself am not that proud of this one, I was thinking for skipping all that and just tell this and that happened but in the end, this is how it turned out 😭
