The Weapon Master's Transmigration 105 During A Nigh

Before she even got past the kitchen counter, she could feel a chill up her spine.

"?"

She moved her head back and forth but couldn't see anyone there. Eva didn't know that there was a person up in the ceiling, waiting for the right time to strike. Libra looked up at the ceiling and then smiled.

「〈Influence〉」

Without warning, Zhujiao came cras.h.i.+ng down on the floor. Libra made sure to control it enough so that Zhujiao wouldn't wreck the floorboards when he fell. If he didn't, either Felicia or Cole would come cracking on his case.

Eva had stepped back in surprise at someone suddenly falling from the sky and the recognized Zhujiao. She rubbed her temples as she tried to recall his name and how to address him.

"Umm... Zhujiao...? What was it again... A! Zhujiao-ge!"

Zhujiao was busy suffering from pain that came from all over his body when he heard a soft voice call him 'ge.'

'Ah, how long has it been since someone called me like this?'

He thought back to the times where everyone had lost respect for him when his stupid rival that he could surprisingly no longer recall the name of had made him lose his cultivation.

"Eh, was I wrong? Then it's probably Zhujiao-shu!"

"BLEH!〈 That's not it...〉"

"EH?! What went wrong, Libra?"

Zhujiao was still speaking Chinese. Because of that, Eva had not a single idea of what the dude was saying. Seeing her distressed state, Libra decided to translate for her.

"Ahem, he said that it's not -shu."

Currently, his face looked so smug that it more than deserved a smack or two. It just looked so annoying.

Libra was a spirit. To be more precise, a Balance Spirit. As a Balance spirit, they had the extremely useful privilege of being able to understand a person's words regardless of the language they were using and to convey those same words in another language for another party.

They had such an ability so they would be able to help keep the world in order. There were also Animal Spirits, Offense Spirits, Defence Spirits, Malicious Spirits and a lot more.

However, very few of those spirits actually come out intentionally so not much information is actually known about Spirits.

Zhujiao had recovered a bit and lifted his upper body to correct Eva.

"〈Umm... Xiao Eva, you were right the first time. I was just overjoyed by someone calling me like that. And -shu should be used to address older male people.〉"

"..."

Eva's smiling face started twitching. Once again, she had not a single idea of what Zhujiao said. Felicia had tried teaching a bit of Chinese when she was younger but it was mostly just basic words. And since Eva didn't show much enthusiasm during lesson times, Felicia eventually stopped it.

This gave Eva more time to explore the library, thus widening her amount of knowledge but it was very shallow. What's more, most of that 'knowledge' were stories so...

"Umm, what were you doing up in the ceiling?"

She tried gesturing a bit but Libra decided to continue helping her out and translate it for her. After all, they could cause a lot of mischief as a translator.

「She's asking what were you doing being a stupid pervert up in the ceiling.」

Zhujiao's face isntantly paled and his eyes turned lifeless.

"〈?! P-Pervert? Well, I guess it could look that way...〉"

"〈I was trying to do a sneak attack! Because then maybe Master might praise me!〉"

It turns out he had just forgotten the fact that Cole had told him to stay put in front of the entrance. If Cole was present, he would probably start doing tests on Zhujiao's brain and have him take IQ tests to see if he really was an idiot.

Libra thought of how could he spin Zhujiao's words and then had a brilliant idea. They then went closer to Eva and whispered in her ear.

「He was trying to a.s.sault your father.」

Eva's face turned into one of shock but it quickly turned into one of suspicion, not towards Zhujiao, but towards Libra.

"Big Bro Libra, are you sure that's what he actually said?"

"Yeah!"

Libra had put on an angelic smile that would make anyone believe that they told no lies. Even when the house was shrouded in darkness, it looked like they had a s.h.i.+ning halo above them.

But Eva didn't feel like trusting that face. There were a few times where Libra had tricked her which was why she stried suffocating him with a pillow earlier in the day.

'Maybe that's why the other half of him looks like a devil sneering at me...'

While Libra still had a smile on their face, they could see a pair of scales floating over Eva's heads with the words 'trust' teetering on them. The longer the seconds went by, the more the scales started tilting to the bad side.

Just as Eva was pondering if she could really trust Libra's words...

"What are you doing so late at night?"

The main door had opened without their knowledge and Cole was already behind Libra and Eva.

"Papa!"

"Master!"

"s.h.i.+fu!"

Hearing his familiar voice, Eva instantly spun into his direction and clamped onto his leg. Rather than a bunny, she looked more like a Koala this time around. Cole let her be and then moved his sight to the Zhujiao who was still on the ground.

His eyes were sparkling and he had enthusiastically called Cole his 's.h.i.+fu'. He didn't care for his appearance and only seemed to be asking 'How did I do?' with sparkling eyes.

"〈Ah, you finally came down, huh?〉"

"〈?! Master knew I was up there〉"

Zhujiao drooped his head down in disappointment but then quickly propped it back up with the thought of 'As expected of s.h.i.+fu!'

"〈Yes, and I'll be teaching you English later so hurry up and get some sleep.〉"

Cole shooed Zhujiao away and gave him directions to his room and poured Eva some milk. Felicia also finally came out of her portal with a very satisfied face. Cole still had something to talk about with her so he had Libra bring Eva to her room.

"...Libra, if you take Eva to her room, I'll forget about the things you just said."

「Right on it, Master!」

"Fueh? Wait, my milk--"

Without any hesitation. Libra grabbed Eva and sped upstairs to her room. The only sound left was the rattling of Eva's abandoned milk gla.s.s that was about to fall.

"Fuwa~ That was a very fun talk."

"Well, good for you I guess.

Felicia turned on the lights and started brewing some coffee. She had a feeling Cole wasn't planning on sleeping yet.

"So, want do you want to talk about?"

"I don't recall telling you that I wanted to talk about something."

"I read your face!"

She pointed at Cole's face that was as expressionless as ever. Even as Cole was disapproving her statement with such an expression, her triumphant pose and smile didn't crack a single bit.

"Well, basically I need you to take care of transportation."

"Transportation of what?"

Felicia tilted her head to the side. Even when she was acting careless like that, she was still keeping an eye on the coffee

"People, items, animals. It may even come to the point where we have to smuggle criminals."

"Hoo~ Sounds fun! Eh, but didn't you quit〈S.T.E.L.L.A〉?"

Felicia grew confused. After all, she was present when Cole received hi things back from the office. So she really had to wonder what Cole was going to need her services for.

"I haven't told you yet? Lucille had arranged for me to be the leader of an organization. "

"It's activities?"

"Let's say various. But I mostly want it to serve as an information agency."

The spark in Felicia's eyes brightened and so did her interest and curiosity for Cole's new organization.

As a child, she took gymnastics cla.s.ses. She was pretty good at it and when she had found the existence of spy movies, she fell in love with the idea of doing cool tricks while doing spy work. Because of that, she even strived to become the top of her cla.s.s and she did!

She would have even become a young athlete if only she didn't leave the〈Avant Zone〉so early.

'But it's not like actually becoming an athlete would change anything...'

Felicia's actions slowed and her eyes slowly started losing focus, as if she was staring at something far, far away.

*SNAP*

"!!"

Felicia was jolted out of her thoughts by the sound of Cole's fingers snapping. When she looked at his face, it was as indifferent as ever but it made her feel at peace.

"I don't mind if you were thinking of something from the past, but share it to me when you feel like it. Bottling up things is bad, but I can wait until the time you're willing to share the contents of that bottle."

Cole lightly tapped Felicia's forehead and then took his cup of coffee. Felicia rubbed her forehead and then let out her usual lively smile.

"Then let's talk about happier things!"

"Like?"

"My compensation!"

Cole put his hand to his chin and tilted his head to the side. He could make Felicia have a salary or give her other items in exchange like Val.

As he was thinking, an idea had popped up into his mind. If he said it, he probably couldn't take it back considering the person he was talking about it with was Felicia. But then again, it would technically be a lot more cheaper to pay her off with it...

'Hmm... Well, the only one to be sacrificed will be me so I see no harm.'

Just as Felicia was dying to know what Cole was going to say...

"Do you want money or me?"
