The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World

"So, you want us to leave with that," said Aiden as he looked at the state of both of the horses who didn't even look in proper health.

"You don't like it? I even made an effort for you," said Mia, not understanding the shock that could be seen in the eyes of Aiden.

Seeing the answer that came out of the mouth of Mia, Aiden had no choice but to accept that he was going to travel with her using those two horses.

·?θm "Sure, I like it," said Aiden as he forced a smile to appear on his face.

The truth was that Aiden had never ridden a horse since on Earth cars had replaced them a long time ago, that was the main reason why Aiden was acting like this.

"Hmm, actually can I tell you something?"

"Sure, what is it?" asked Mia, as she jumped on the back of the horse not wasting time.

"Well... the truth is, I never have ridden a horse."

Hearing this, Mia was extremely confused, how could someone have never ridden a horse before wasn't it basic knowledge for anyone in this world?

"What? Are you joking or are you actually telling the truth," asked Mia, who was already on the back of the horse.

"I really am telling the truth, so can you please show me? Don't worry, I'm a quick learner," said Aiden as he winked in the direction of Mia.

"Sure, I'll show you, but be quick I don't want to be late," said Mia, as she got off her horse and went to Aiden wanting to help get on the horse.

Helping him, she put both of her hands on his abdomen and pushed him upward.

'Wow, I didn't think he would have abs,' thought Mia who started blushing, as she felt the abdomen of Aiden which were rock solid.

It was normal of her, to think that Aiden wouldn't have those since when you gave him a quick look not a lot of muscles were showing. He was more lean than muscular.

Aiden was finally on the back of his horse and it was now time for Mia to tell him what he needed to do.

"Alright, now hold the reins, and simply put your weight forward and the horse will start moving forward," explained Mia quickly.

He did exactly as he was told and followed her instructions and it worked the horse started moving forward.

He had a little trouble finding his balance, almost falling off, but he didn't as he continued moving in circles around Mia.

It seemed like Aiden had learned how to ride a horse, it actually wasn't that hard. Well, for someone with Aiden's talent who was pretty good and used to moving his body.

"Alright, ready?" asked Mia, as she got back on her horse and got ready to leave.

"Yeah, let's go," said Aiden as he waited for Mia to get him in front of him so that he would follow her.

Two minutes later, the two horses started going into the forest known as Aurora, a forest known to have many monsters inside of it.

This information was unknown to Aiden and Mia didn't think that she had to tell Aiden since it really was common information.

As they were on the road, Mia and Aiden started to learn about each other because if they stayed silent all the time, it would have been one hell of a boring ride.

"So, you're the king's assassin?" asked Mia, trying to learn more about Aiden.

"Yes, I am, and you are some type of person who takes on commissions like this often?"

"I guess so, but I only take the ones where there's no fighting involved since as you can see I'm not fit to be fighting anyone," said Mia, as she pointed at her physique which didn't have an ounce of muscle.

"You don't look that bad," said Aiden as he looked at her from head to toe, profiting from the moments to admire her beauty.

Seeing the look that Aiden was giving Mia, she blushed. She got those looks often from other people but she didn't find any of them attractive, but the man in front of her looked quite good, his face especially was beautiful to look at.

Realizing that she was also fixing him, she quickly looked away not wanting to be noticed by Aiden.

But unknowingly to her, Aiden had seen her blushing and turn away, and the truth was that he, also, found her quite cute. 𝙗𝙚𝙙𝒏𝙤𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝒎

'I wonder if I will be able to see her again after the trial,' thought Aiden, knowing that after he completed his mission, he would probably never see her again.

"So, hum hum, how much time will it take us to arrive at the Upsilon Empire?" asked Aiden, ignoring this little situation between them as he wanted to stay concentrated on the task ahead.

"Probably a day or two, it depends on how much time we take to rest."

Hearing this, Aiden knew that he wouldn't have much time to finish his quest, he would only have five days or so to complete it. If he didn't complete it in five days, he wasn't sure if it meant that he would fail the trial.

"It would be best to arrive in one day," said Aiden returning to his usual attitude, not getting distracted by the physique of the person guiding him.

After all, what truly mattered here was completing the quest, so that he would have access to the assassin-type skills. Women could always appear later, it's not like he wanted some right now.

"Then we should continue for a couple of hours, we don't want to take too much time to rest," said Mia who was also, concentrating back on the task she was asked to do.

Five hours later, they decided to sleep for a bit. Aiden was currently taking guard, but he didn't understand why he needed to do so, were there supposed to be monsters in this forest?
