"Why do you know it's me?" Rasul asked curiously.
"Mia couldn't have come up with this kind of prank by herself, because she would be afraid of being beaten by me." Ask said with a chuckle, "You must have taught her this little trick, and then used the words 'you can scare your leader and make him look at you with new eyes' to instigate Mia to ambush me at the door, right?"
"No, no!" Mia quickly jumped out and said, "It has nothing to do with the instructor. I just wanted to try this new trick myself!"
"Mentor?" Ask asked.
"This little girl is very talented in understanding instant movement." Rasul said with a smile, "I have accepted her as a formal Ilanian assassin and my personal disciple. With my careful training, she will become the second most powerful white assassin in history - of course, second only to me."
"Thank you, Lord Rasul, for your appreciation of her." Ask said, "But she signed a labor contract with our Blue Sword first, so becoming an assassin can be put on hold for now."
“Haha, with the opportunity to become a white assassin right here, who would choose to be an ordinary mercenary?” Rasul said proudly, “Besides, even according to the laws of the East Solomon Empire, a labor contract signed with a minor is invalid.”
"Then let the parties involved choose." Ask said calmly, "Mia, do you want to stay with our Blue Sword Mercenary Group, or do you want to follow this guy back to the Ilania Plateau?"
"Of course I'll stay!" Mia said without hesitation.
"Wait Mia, that's not what you just said!" Rasul's face changed and he immediately shouted.
"You just asked me if I was willing to be an assassin." Mia turned her head and looked at him helplessly, "You didn't say you wanted to take me away from everyone!"
"But if you want to become an assassin, you must go to our assassin base." Rasul tried to persuade her, "We have excellent training conditions there, rich accumulation of potion materials, and various extraordinary items and equipment. As my personal disciple, you can get all these precious materials as you wish."
"Look, you are still using an ordinary iron sword. It will break easily if you encounter an enemy with heavy weapons, right? Do you want to try our assassin's hidden blade and hidden crossbow? We also have very handsome assassin uniforms, right?"
Mia hesitated after hearing this, and Ask immediately added a stab:
"He is a pervert. He likes big, strong women. His family is full of women."
So Mia's mind immediately showed a weird scene: a group of sturdy aunts hugged her and rubbed her head, smiling affectionately:
"Come on, Mia, call me Master's Wife."
Mia shuddered suddenly and turned her head stiffly, showing an awkward but polite smile:
"Master, I still want to be a mercenary..."
Rasul was speechless. What the hell does this have to do with my sexual orientation? Wait, how does he know what I like...
Then Rasul fell into deep thought, while Ask patted Mia's head and said:
"You still have a lot of problems with your fighting style. I will teach you one by one when we get back."
