Chapter 314: V3 Ch 12. Their missions

I’ve taken a fighting posture and had my hand on the hilt.

“Ufu-fu~. Now I know that I found an unfaceted gem~. I hope you are fine with meeting my Father. He has a task for you. It is a good way for us to know each other, and also for you to have some money.” (V)

“Just how far did your investigation go…?”

“How far…? I~ know~ everything~ that~ happened~ since~ you~ were~ found~.” For a second I felt like she is yandere. Still, I postponed fighting my way out.

Several days later we arrived back to the city.

Right after I returned to the land, Veronica dragged me to the richest district. At first I thought we will arrive to one of the mansions but we proceeded deeper and deeper, until the mansions turned into actual palaces.

We stopped only in front of the largest palace.

She was let through all gates without any questions asked. The purple coats opened the front door and Veronica gracefully walked through the hallway. I followed her.

Every person on our way bowed and showed their respect to her.

“You are a very peculiar person.”

“You flatter me~.” (V)

We finally stopped in front of a guarded door.

“Just smile and answer Father’s questions.” (V)

“Signora.” The guards bowed.

“Is Father busy?” (V)

“His Serenity is expecting your arrival. One moment.” The guard disappeared inside, and a minute later exited with pale face.

“His Serenity allows you to enter.” (G)

“Good job.” She patted his shoulder.

When we entered, I looked around the room. Behind the sturdy oak door was a large circular room with white wallpaper and golden reliefs. Aside from several couches and a coffee table, there were many bookshelves, and a desk.

Veronica approached the large wooden desk, where was sitting a man. She performed curtsy.

“May you live for many years, Father. Your task was completed. I brought the beast-kin.” (V)

“Hm. Come here.” The man looked at me.

“Hello, I am Kuronami. May I know who you are?”

“W…!” (V)

‘BANG’

“Me? I am the Serene Doge of the Most Serene republic of Benezio. You need to know nothing more than this. I called for you after hearing about your martial skill and intelligence. Seeing that you managed to get the trust of a merchant crew…” (D)

“They were smugglers.” (V)

“Nobody asked for your opinion, Veronica. As I said, you showed yourself to be capable. I have a request for you. Will you accept this task, in exchange for payment and citizenship?” (D)

“I… I should think about it.”

“Hm. What makes you doubt?” (D)

“I already saw that it is hard to find a job here, so I doubt that I will have any use of your offer.”

“Not many beasts are granted citizenship. There are no employers or landlords who dare refusing citizens.” (V)

“You, stay outside unless called.” The Doge pointed at the door.

“As you wish, Father.” She bowed and backed away out of the room.

“I see… Then, what does Your Serenity wish for me to do?”

“I want you to help investigating.” (D)

“I am sorry but I cannot accept the job without more information.”

“VERONICA!” (D)
She entered and performed curtsy.

“What can I…” (V)

“Is she very capable?” (D)

“Her martial skills should be close to mine, not to mention she wormed herself into a smuggler crew, the most cautious kind of bandits.” (V)

“I see… If my daughter believes in you so much then… Then vouch for her, if you are so sure.” (D)

“I vouch that Kuronami will be able to complete any task Father gives her. May I be punished by the God, if I lied to you.” (V)

“Hm. You better be right.

Listen then, Beast. The pirates are becoming cheeky. Those damned cutthroats started robbing merchant ships right in the waters of Benezio, they even dared raiding our colonies and trading posts. They set up a wide smuggling network and are causing more and more trouble for the republic.

I want you to find where their main hideout is, and then report its location. If you can obtain crucial information, you will be paid a lot.” (D)

“I… I will give my answer after considering.”

“Very well. Go. Veronica, guide her to any room and afterwards return.” (D)

She guided me to a fancy room.

“Sorry, I need to go. Feel free to rest. You can hang your clothes in the wardrobe." (V)

For now, I decided to sleep in the bed. It was so soft and fluffy, that it was impossible to resist…

---

The door to the office was opened.

“Father.” (V)

“Come in. Where is the Beast?” (D)

“In my room.” (V)

“You insolent brat, respond properly!” (D)

The Doge threw a cup at her but she dodged it.

“Hm.” (D)

“How can I be of service?” (V)

“There is a new report. The Shining Moon was spotted on ‘Black Demon’. The spies claimed that the b* and her miscarriage are hiding with the pirates, and I want you to track them down. The b*s can be brought back in any way: alive, or dead if you feel like it.” (D)

“Are you sure about their identities?” Veronica was concerned.

“That is why you are to investigate. Now get out of here.” (D)

“I understood, Father. It shall be done.” She knelt and left the room.

After the doors closed, she breathed out.

‘Sister…’
