Escort Mission

"Well, anyway, now that we have been introduced let's go back. We also got missions for our own teams." Akira says

"You guys are already leaving?" Shira asks

"Yeah…" Reine says

"Well then, Goodbye." Everyone leaves after saying goodbye.

"So, the mission I was talking about is an escort mission." Shira says

"Who are we gonna escort?" Mio asks

"Where are we going to escort him to?" Renjii asks

"Is he an important person?" Roy asks

"LET ME FINISH FIRST!" Shira yells

"Then ask questions." Shira says

"Okayyy" All of them say in sync

"So, the person we will be escorting is a merchant. He has great influence in Aoikibara. He will be going to 'Juri' with his family." Shira explains

"Juri? Isn't that really far away?" Mio says

"Yeah, even with a carriage it will take probably two days." Shira says

"Do we have to accept this mission?" Roy asks

"Yes…Sigh…" Shira says

"Where are we going to pick him up from?" Renjii asks

"It's not that far away from here. It will probably take ten-twenty minutes by foot." Shira replies

"When are we leaving?" Mio asks

"NOW!"

Everyone gets suited up and leaves.

"So we have to escort him and his family there, right?" Roy asks

"Yeah." Shira replies

"Sigh...Why do we have to escort a merchant and his family on our first mission?" Roy sighs and says

"Why? Did you think it will be some hard and dangerous mission like dungeon raid or catching wanted criminal?" Shira says and laughs

"Escorting missions are too boring..." Roy says

"But it's safe and there are no chances of getting hurt so it's perfect for our first mission" Renji says

"You are just scared, nothing else." Roy says

"No, I am not. I am just saying it for everyone's safety" Renji says

"Ok ok you guys stop fighting. We have arrived at our destination." Shira says

After arriving they see a big mansion in front of them.

The mansion is a two-story mansion with high walls surrounding it. Just by a look of it anyone can tell that this is a luxurious mansion.

A butler is waiting outside to greet them.

"Welcome, I am the butler of Mr. Shinbou. Please follow me, I will escort you to the ballroom."

Everyone starts to follow him

'He looks like a normal butler but I can feel a strong aura coming from him!' Roy thinks to himself

"They have arrived sir." The butler says

In front of them are three people standing.

One of them is a male and the other two are females.

"Nice to meet you guys. I am Akiyuki Shinbou, a merchant"

He has narrow, darkly colored eyes, and black hair that's styled in a distinguishable fringe that just about covers part of his left eye. His clothing consists of a grey dress shirt underneath a long, midnight blue blazer, trousers of the same color, suspenders, a single white glove on his right hand, and blue boots colored brown at the collar.

"This is my wife Akemi Shinbou."

Akemi possesses a curvy physique; she has red eyes and red hair. She is wearing a formal dress with earrings.

"Nice to meet you guys." Akemi greets them

"And this is my daughter Sarada Shinbou."

Just as her mother, Sarada also has curvy body, beautiful red eyes, long silky red hair, and her face looks more mature then her age.

"Hello! Nice to meet you." Sarada greets them.

"Nice to meet you guys too." All of them say

'The merchant is really different from what I imagined. I thought he would be a fat and greedy person.' Mio thinks inwardly

"So, how long are we gonna wait before we leave?" Roy asks

"We will leave right away." Akiyuki says

"Is the carriage ready?" Akiyuki asks the butler.

"Yes sir, the carriage is ready." The butler replies

After that, all of them leaves the mansion and comes to their front yard where they see two luxurious carriages waiting for them.

The merchant's family and Roy get on the same carriage.

Shira, Mio and Renjii get on the other carriage.

"Why is he with them?" Mio asks Shira

"We have to leave one person with them to protect them. And Roy is the strongest one among you guys." Shira replies

"No he is n-' Shira interrupts Mio and says, "He is! Now get on."

"Hmph." Mio pouts

The carriage starts moving.

After half an hour of sitting inside the carriage,

'Why is nothing happening…UGH' Roy thinks inwardly

"What's your name?" Akiyuki asks Roy

"Roy Yagami." Roy replies while looking at Akiyuki

Roy catches Sarada from the corner of his eyes staring at him.

Seeing Roy looking at her she diverts her attention outside the carriage.

'Why is she staring at me?'

-

Another hour passes. Roy catches Sarada looking at him frequently.

The road is very bumpy. Because of this Sarada almost falls but Roy catches Sarada before she falls. But when he grabs her, he accidentally grabs onto her boobs. Roy blushes a little but hides his expression.

"Are you okay?"

"Y-y-yes. Thank yu-you." Sarada replies while her cheeks are red.
