Chapter 3

Wu shook his head, letting out a sigh. He had such lazy students.

The sun had passed the sky about twenty times and no sign of her Lord's son. With every passing day, her nervousness grew. She was never given an estimated time to find him, which made her more impatient in her search. And again, asking for help from the villagers did nothing.

She let out a sigh, leaning against the wall. She glared at the photo, annoyed she wasn't able to find him.

(Y/n) Felt the photo get snatched out of her hand. "You look a little too young to be having kids." A man said, crumbling the photo after getting a good look at it. "How much ya willing to pay to find him?" She tilted her head, keeping the dagger hidden behind her. "I have no currency for this realm-" "Use less words, sweetheart, all I got from that was you ain't got money, which is too bad, I would've told you where he was."

Great.

"I can offer you services for a day in exchange for information." She compromised. It wouldn't be a bad deal for him anyway, she got the location of the boy, he got free labor.

The man paused for a bit before letting out a loud laugh. "Yer a bold one, but I'm not looking to catch a case." (Y/n) became annoyed, not understanding why he was making it difficult. "My patience is wearing thin." "So is mine, but you don't see me complaining, I'm trying to negotiate."

(Y/n) pinned the man to the wall, the dagger pressed to his neck. "Tell me what you know. Now." She hissed. "Ya know, it's usually the guy that has the girl pinned in scenarios like these."

She pressed the dagger further into his neck. "G-Geez kid- He's just 'round the corner!"

The dagger disappeared from her hand, and she ran in the direction he pointed in.

"So, what're we gonna do about the kid?" The black ninja asked. "Ugh! Let me go!" The child yelled.

(Y/n) winced, holding her leg to ease the pain. She hadn't been letting it heal since coming to the Realm. She was too close to her target to let her pain to get in the way. She can rest after.

She sucked in her breath, running up to the black ninja. To his misfortune, he turned around just to be kicked at his lower stomach by her, letting go of the small child.

"Woah!" The boy yelped, landing in the girl's arms.

"Finally!" The red ninja yelled, taking out his sword. "Something we can actually fight." (Y/n) flinched, holding onto the boy tighter. She immediately turned to flee, much to the disappointment of the red ninja.

After being a good distance away from the ninja, she let the boy walk on his own. It was a relatively silent walk, apart from the boy's mumbled complaints.

"Stupid village, stupid people, stupid ninja."

All that walking led them to a snowy region. Though, she wasn't going to complain about it. The coldness helped the ache in her leg and shooed away the lingering anxiety she felt.

She looked down at the boy, he wasn't anything she imagined him to be. He was childish, inexperienced, evil? No, evil isn't the right word.
