The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World

As Melinda said that, the two of them entered the room and they started looking around themselves.

Aiden had to say that it was quite pleasing to the eyes and that there really weren't as many colours as in the rest of this estate.

But that was honestly just a detail as Aiden started to look at the size of this thing and he was honestly impressed.

He could start training here, he wouldn't even have to go to the training grounds anymore.

He could be running in circles in this room and he would be getting in shape that's for sure.

It was also quite well equipped with everything necessary to live and even more. It was perfect, that was it, simply perfect.

But, then he realized that there would be a little problem with living with Isolde. 

Aiden wouldn't keep his mask on all day long, he would need at some point to remove it and relax a little, he didn't want to be on edge for such a long time.

"Um, Melinda, can I talk to you quickly," said Aiden, clearly meaning that he needed to talk to her in private.

Sure, this place was incredible, but if he could have a place where he would be able to live by himself then it would be even better if he were to be honest.

"Sure," replied Melinda as she got closer to Aiden, waiting for him to whisper something to her ear.

"Isolde can you leave the room for a minute or two?" asked Aiden, seeing as she wasn't moving looking at the two of them.

Aiden didn't want to take any risks, that's why he asked her to leave the room. He wanted to make sure that this conversation wouldn't be overheard by anyone.

Isolde didn't complain as she simply opened the black door once again, leaving the room and leaving the two of them alone inside it.

"What was so important that you had to make her leave?" asked Melinda with a quiet tone, as she knew that Aiden didn't want this conversation to sound through the walls.

"Can't you find me a place to live alone," asked Aiden, right away, before saying his reasons as he was interested in what sort of reaction she would have toward that idea.

Obviously, she wasn't too pleased by that idea, as she replied, "Well, are you sure that's in your best interest being alone constantly? On the way here, I noticed that you weren't the biggest talker, so I thought that having a new person as a roommate would be a good idea."

She didn't seem too keen on the idea of finding him a new room, and she had even given him reasons that Aiden couldn't refute even if he wanted to.

Everything that she had just said was true, and there was no doubt about it. However, that wasn't a reason for Aiden to give up as he responded with his own arguments.

"What about my privacy? What if I want to be alone? What if I want to remove that mask from my face? I simply can't do anything with her here," said Aiden, as he tried to make himself sound as annoyed as he possibly could.

Melinda took a few seconds before answering, and she had honestly found the perfect solution to his problem, however, it wasn't one that Aiden would appreciate.

"About your mask, why not remove it and show her your face and tell her your name, wouldn't that solve pretty much all of your problems?" said Melinda, as she couldn't find anything wrong with her response.

The reason that she couldn't find anything wrong with it was simple, there was no problem with that solution, well... no problem that she knew about.

She didn't know that the more people knew about Aiden's identity, the more in danger he would be, it basically went together.

That was what she ignored about Aiden.

Nonetheless, revealing his face to someone who was completely unrelated to the Nightshade family, probably wouldn't be that bad of an idea.

"I don't think that's a good idea," replied Aiden, exactly for those reasons.

Melinda, however, just couldn't understand. She knew that Aiden may like his privacy, but why did he need to hide his face from everyone that he saw?

Melinda hadn't recognized him, so it couldn't be because he was so popular that everyone would be recognizing him.

He came from the Slums, for fuck sake.

"Why? Give me one good reason?" asked back Melinda, waiting for Aiden's answer.

However, now Aiden's mind was in complete turmoil as he didn't know if he wanted to reveal the things that he knew to her or not.

'Should I tell her about my relation with the Nightshades... No, no, I can't do that what if she told Sylas,' thought Aiden as he currently thinking about a good reason that he could give her.

Then, he realized that he couldn't give her any reason that would refute what she had previously said.

'Well, I guess I'll reveal my face, there's basically no chance that she knows anyone from the Nightshade Family,' thought Aiden, as he had finally made his choice.

He knew that it would be much easier for everyone around him if Isolde knew about his identity.

However, he knew that it would put him in more danger in the future.

He knew that if rumours started to spread about someone named Aiden, the Nightshades would probably come running even if there was a chance that they thought he was dead.

If there was even a chance that the trash which they had thrown away years ago, was now a prodigy. 

The Nightshade family would come running, there was not an ounce of doubt in Aiden's mind.

However, he had big doubts that such a situation would happen if he only showed his face to Isolde.

"Alright, I'll show my face," muttered Aiden, with a dejected look on his face.

Then, Melinda made Isolde enter the room once again and it was now time to reveal his face to another person.
