Combat Maid Harem

"Let's go home, Ella."

There was a warm smile on Aleshia's face as she looked at Ella. Ella held Aleshia's hand very tightly as they left the warehouse. Ella did not look behind her but rather continued looking ahead.

Aleshia glanced at her little sister. Surprisingly, her little sister did not flinch from all that gore and blood. She would have expected her to at least look at her hatefully after knowing that her Big Sister is a killer. After they passed several streets, Aleshia opened her mouth to speak.

"Ella… Were you not scared of Big Sister?"

Aleshia asked apprehensively. She was scared of what Ella would say. She couldn't bear knowing that her little sister would hate her.

"Hmm? Why would I be scared of Big Sister?"

Ella looked up at Aleshia with a cute confused face. There was an unconditional trust oozing out of her presence. Aleshia felt relieved after knowing that her little sister did not end up hating her. Otherwise, she would hate herself for doing so.

"You trust Big Sister?"

"Yes! No matter what happens, I will trust Big Sister!"

Ella answered jovially. Her Big Sister is her world. There is nothing else that could compare to her love and trust in her Big Sister.

"Ella, weren't you scared that Big Sister killed people?"

Aleshia's face was serious as she asked. Killing for kids like Ella is a heavy topic. When she did her first kill, Aleshia felt vomiting her guts out that day. She could imagine her little sister doing the same.

"Eh? Big Sister protected Ella. I'm not scared."

Ella's face was carefree. Perhaps, for her who has always relied on her Big Sister, killing others is less important than her Big Sister. That's why in her eyes, Aleshia killing all of those ex-guards was only necessary for her Big Sister to save her.

"Ella is really strong!"

Aleshia exclaimed to her. Ella smiled back sweetly. Having her Big Sister say that she was strong made her happy. It was like she was being recognized.

The sisters arrived home and Aleshia dressed Ella's wound with a concoction of medicinal plants. It was something that she used in her assassin missions whenever she gets injured so it was pretty effective. The pain that Ella felt on her neck quickly disappeared.

Aleshia scrubbed the blood writings on the wall. She sniffed it and there was a weird expression on her face.

"This is just a goat's blood?"

As an assassin, Aleshia is capable of distinguishing between the smells of blood. This way, she could know when to throw her black cloak if it smelled too much of human blood after doing her mission.

It was odd. Aleshia thought at first that it was Ella's blood, but it seems that they only planned to scare her. They must've been still pretty concerned about the City Guard Captain coming after them if they injured Ella to the extent that they could write on the walls with her blood. They must have thought that raping Aleshia would not garner their arrest if they insisted that she was compliant at the time. There would be no witnesses so the case would be at a standstill and Aleshia would be forced to live her life in shame.

Aleshia couldn't help but get angry again after being reminded of what they planned to do to her. They think that they could just step on the people in the slum district because they were City Guards. Well, they kicked an iron plate and now their bodies are cold and lifeless.

Aleshia patted Ella's head before heading to bed. That night, the sisters huddled together as if to make sure that the other would not disappear. Aleshia too was embracing Ella quite tightly. The fear of losing her little sister was still fresh in her mind.

A few hours later, Aleshia separated from Ella. She silently left their house while wearing a black cloak and headed back to the warehouse.

She entered and saw that no one found out that there were dead bodies there. She pulled out her dagger and released her pent-up anger. The next morning, people passing by would notice the strong smell of blood. When they entered the warehouse to see, they would find that six corpses were mangled and could not be recognized anymore.

Aleshia returned home and slept beside Ella. She already wore a different set of clothing. The green dress she bought was already unusable. Good thing she only bought it for cheap. Otherwise, if she had bought a new one, it would have been an expensive loss for her.

When morning came, Ella looked around immediately for her Big Sister. When she saw that she was just beside her, she went forward and embraced her with a giggle. Ehehe, Her Big Sister is the best!

"Ella..?"

Aleshia opened her eyes groggily. She slept like a log after pushing her body so much last night. It was similar to those days when she fought against a strong target, but this time she was filled with satisfaction as she did it to save her little sister.

"Good morning, Big Sister!"

Ella greeted Aleshia with energy. After a good night's rest, she already put everything that happened before to the back of her mind.

"Good morning, Ella."

Aleshia felt rewarded when she saw Ella's smile. It was something that she protected successfully last night. Her life, her world, her little sister.

The day quickly passed uneventfully as Aleshia tried to look for jobs one more time which she still failed. When night came she thought of an idea.

A shadow traveled in the dark streets of the noble district. After traveling through several streets, the shadow finally reached the largest mansion in this city.

Aleshia jumped over the tall metal fence easily. She carefully flitted through the team of guards patrolling the area. She scaled over the mansion's wall and jumped onto Lawrend's window.

She has come to finish her mission to take her bounty reward.
