‘Shinigami?"
Ruri that was curling in Jade"s lap like usual looked up in response to the remark made by Joshua in the report.
‘What"s that?"
Joshua answered.
“Shinigami is a group of a.s.sa.s.sins. s.e.x, age, and place of origin was unknown. They receive requests as long as they got paid. There"s no such thing as failure to the requests. They were nicknamed as ‘Shinigami" because their targets would certainly die. There"s a rumor that Shinigami just recently arrived in the Dragon Kingdom.”
Ruri suddenly became suspicious.
‘How would you know they"re the Shinigami if you don"t know the s.e.x or even age?"
Isn"t that contradictory? She asked Joshua while huffing.
“That"s the case, but even if you say so…”
Looking at Joshua with skeptical eyes, Jade"s hand fell on her head and patted gently.
“Well, it was just a rumor. Better be cautious. The one who attacked the cherished one of the Celurean Kingdom was yet to be captured. We don"t know if it has relations to the Shinigami. Ruri, don"t wander around the town for a while.”
‘I"m going to the town today"
“But…”
‘Kotaro and Rin are going with me. It would be troublesome if we weren"t going."
As if imagining the two spirits protesting, Jade let go saying, “Just today.”
“Joshua, continue gathering information. Even if it"s hard, it"s worth it.”
“Alright.”
After Joshua left the office, the soldiers pa.s.sed by.
“Your Majesty, it is ready.”
“Alright.”
Jade picked her up, stood and left the office.
“Where are you going, Jade? They said you"re ready. I"m going on my own downtown.”
“The painter is ready. I asked them to get us our portrait. You"ll go to the town after.”
‘Ha? Jade, you understand me?”
Ruri"s eyes rounded.
“It"s been a while since Ruri came to the Dragon Kingdom. Many wanted to see Ruri, but in other towns, they can"t see Ruri as much as in the Royal Palace. You can"t always be seen. Therefore I decided to get a portrait and sell it. Now, we have time.”
‘You"ll get the money?"
“It had to be made in bulk. It"ll spend a great deal of paper, paints and other materials. Of course, I"m going to set the price low, therefore it"ll be easy for anyone to buy it.”
Who wanted to buy their portrait? Ruri wondered but she recalled people rushing to get what she bought in a shop in the capital.
She didn"t realize that she"s the subject, but Ruri admits that in this world cherished one was an object of respect.
‘Would it be the cat or the human form?"
“Of course the human form.”
After Jade took off the bracelet, they headed to the room where everything was set up for drawing.
“a, such an important task to be appointed to paint the cherished one! I"ll show you the perfect image of the cherished one!”
After greeting the excite painter, Jade sat on the chairs beside him.
Staying still for ten minutes… twenty minutes…
Ruri"s face began to twitch.
“Jade, how long am I going to stay in this position?”
“Till he finished painting.”
The painter seemed to be working hard but it would take a long time to finish painting.
How long does it take to finish a painting… honestly, I can"t stand it.
