Chapter 41 - 41: A Leaf Between Ice

"A Leaf Between Ice"

~Narration Change ~

"...Miss Anja, we haven't found any information on Sir Abis's whereabouts. All of our leads have fallen, and everyone has said the same thing... they haven't seen him in 30 days!

Anja lays back in her seat, turning around staring at the view behind. A window that consumes the entirety of the wall.

"Did you investigate his sister for any answers?" Anja asked.

"Yes, ma'am... but all we got was a message informing her he would be away for quite a while."

Anja sighed, placing the palm of her hand to her forehead, she requests to see the message. "Show me the message." This led the soldier to salute her, followed by dashing out of the room in a hurry!

He hurriedly grabbed the paper the letter was written on, rushing back to Anja's office. He hands the letter over to Anja only to find a twitch in her expression. "What's wrong, miss?" She glances at him then the paper.

"Miss Anja is perfect, an angel sent from Heaven. If I could she would be the one to bear my child!" She read to him.

Embarrassed and shook he grows a panic, his view of Anja makes it quite hard for him to snatch the paper, but, those cold bright red eyes continue to pierce through him. "I'm flattered, but I need the other letter. ...also I'm sure you don't want me to read this any further!" He grabs the paper, "yes ma'am" proceeding to turn away from her running away.

He returns this time with the actual letter. Anja thoroughly reads the message over and over again, "He's currently training." she replies.

"...oh, ma'am how were you...able to figure that out?"

A smile comes to Anja's face, "They don't call me all-seeing for no reason." She replied. The soldier jerked, and turn to gather more information, "I'll report if any more information is found!" he said to Anja blushing.

"Sigh." A breath of stuffed air exits Anja's mouth, a sigh of frustration. She leans against the window, the chair angled to support her body.

*Knock Knock*

Come in, Anja said in a cold voice.

"Ah, Ice-Queen. It's been so long since I saw that scary, cold face. What have you been up to my Queen?"

Ambrocio? hahaha! she laughed aloud.

"Why do you keep laughing? Sigh, this getting annoying already. Anja, I'm here about that boy you're interested in." Ambrocio remarked.

Boy? Anja asked.

"You know!" Ambrocio eyes narrow, he stares at Anja with suspicion.

I don't know a boy! Appears you've been mistaken.

Ambrocio slams his fist on Anja's desk, "I said tell me about the latest S rank soldier dammit!" Anja glares at him with an instigated smirk. The smirk became a full smile as she tilts her head, ...I don't know who you are talking about. Please inform me!

Ambrocio eyebrow twitched, he stood tall and fixed his suit. "Playing hard to get I see, I believe his name was... Uzun Abyss, something like that."

Anja smile vanished, her eyes narrow. How much do you know? and what do you want to know?

"That's better, tell me everything. His age, birthday, height, class, family, and whereabouts."

Anja didn't want to tell Ambrocio anything, he's their competitor, after all, even though he doesn't look it he's the renowned S rank soldier that works under the Japanese federation. And because of that he always got anything he ever wanted. Except for Anja. Anja never liked older men, she only had one boyfriend before she broke up with him after a week.

But Ambrocio has always been quite persistent since he saw her. Ambrocio is 32 years old, three years ago he met Anja who was 17 at the time, she's 20 now. He has always pursued Anja, he gave her his number, address, and money. But she never accepted his offers.

This made Ambrocio's l.u.s.t evolve into anger and resentment and only forced him to attempt forceful seduction. Many times he tried to force himself onto Anja, her main reason for having guards stand outside the room right now.

... Find, he's 18 years old, his birthday is April 9th, 6'1, 70 kilos, combatant class, he was born in a family of six, and we currently have none on his whereabouts. Anja said.

"Quick I like that. But he's only 18, you can't fall for me but someone younger than you?" He said. Ambrocio aggressively stands, he slams his hands on the desk and reached over to Anja.

*Boom*

The security blows the door down and points a gun to Ambrocio. The other guard walks to Anja and whispers in her ear, "Are you ok."

Anja nods her head and the guard position himself to Ambrocio, "Sir we have to request you to leave!"

Ambrocio eyebrow lowers, "Haha, you wouldn't do this if I was that Abyss, I can kill both of you in a heartbeat. Why get two rank B security guards to stop me? hahaha!"

Ambrocio turns to walk away, he lifts his hand to wave bye. The guard lowers his gun and moves away from the door to create an easier path for him.

Ambrocio stops after passing him inches away, he glances back and glares at the guard. Suddenly smashing his head into the wall. Anja and the other guard got hostile standing preparing to attack him.

"WHO ARE YOU POINTING THAT GUN AT, HUH? YOU CAN'T ANSWER. ONLY THE WEAK COULD DIE SO EASILY!"

Anja grabs her spear and charges for Ambrocio before she knew it she was lying unconscious on the floor. .. She was poisoned somehow. She glances around the room, to find the guard that whispered in her ear standing before her.

"Sorry miss, I just needed to gain some more information. You're useless now!"

Suddenly, his true rank appeared. A rank assassin, specialty poison. He worked for Ambrocio, he poisoned Anja, a high ranking soldier, no spy right under Anja nose.

They grabbed Anja and jumped out of the window. But what they didn't notice was the soldier who reports on Abis's location was hiding behind the wall. And since he is a mage type he attached a tracker on both Anja and Ambrocio.
