Reincarnation Sim Game

"Ouch!" Taka stumbled the third time that night.

Raymund chuckled. "What kind of ninja is he? What a stupid idiot."

Leading the way is Elise, who has the ability to see in the dark. This allowed anyone who walked behind the female warrior to see her almost bare ass. So, Taka chose to walk without looking ahead. That's what made him stumble several times.

Elise gave a hand signal to the two comrades, then peeked out from one of the trees.

Thirty feet in front of them was a village with dirt roads. Every wooden house in the village looks simple and small, elevated slightly off the ground, with tiled roofs. There were quite a few houses, making for an odd sight in the wilderness.

"Relax, Mona." Elise rubbed the back of her growling dog. The pet's expression was like that of a beast ready to attack.

"That was one of the village guards." Taka hissed, pointing to someone walking with a katana on their waist and holding a torch. That person was wearing brownish armor made of leather plates connected to each other, then wearing a helmet of the same material.

"Are we going to kill them?" Elise asked.

"No." Taka frowned. "They are not necessarily bad people. They may just be soldiers assigned by the government. We have to take a talisman from them. According to the information I got, this village is surrounded by magical barriers. The only way past the barrier is to take that talisman from them."

"So, we're going to steal from their bodies?" Yua asked.

Taka shook his head. "We don't know where the talismans are on their bodies. We will paralyze them with fukiya, then look in their outfits."

"Aah…" Yua cleared her throat a little. "Sorry, but for some reason, the only thing I brought with me was this small katana."

"Small katana? You mean Wakizashi?" Taka sounded even more confused.

Yua chuckled. "Well, I'm not a smart ninja, so I often forget names."

Having been silent in surprise, Taka decided to think too much and took out his fukiya, a kind of blowgun made of bamboo. "Well, you can use this. I still have the arrows."

"Oh shit," Raymund mumbled. "Your ranged attack ability is poop, Yua. But, you'd better accept the weapon, or else he'll get more suspicious."

"Thank you." Yua accepted the fukiya and three darts. "It's all smeared with a sleeping potion, right?"

Taka nodded. "Once pierced into your skin, these darts will knock you unconscious." The man then spoke to Elise. "I'm so sorry, Elise-san. However, your appearance is so striking…. I don't mean your clothes, but your physique is very different from ours. We're going on an infiltration mission. You'll attract unwanted attention."

"Well, it makes sense," Raymund added. "You can't help but stay there to keep an eye on things, Elise."

"You can take care of the guards that we're about to knock out, Elise-san. We'll tie them to a tree." Taka continued.

As usual, Elise just nodded silently.

"You take care of that guard, Yua-san." Taka pointed at the guard they were watching. That armored person had already started walking again on patrol. "I'll find another one to knock out. We will meet again at this place."

Yua gave a sign of agreement, and Taka slipped away.

"So, what should I do, sir?" Yua looked up. "I'm not confident in my shooting abilities myself either."

"Well, you can't help but use melee attacks, Yua." Raymund sighed, starting to think that making Yua a ninja was the wrong choice. A ninja must have a balanced ability for ranged and close attacks. "Close to the target and stab the dart from behind them. Don't let Taka know."

This happened because Raymund was too enthusiastic about designing that sexy ninja outfit.

"Okay, sir," Yua answered.

Elise looked at Yua's hands which were not holding anything. "Where…"

Noticing her partner's confused expression, Yua smiled. "Well, as soon as I arrived in the afterlife, I could already feel that I could perform a skill."

"You can hide anything on your body, right?" Raymund added.

"Well, as long as it's not too big." The kunoichi shrugged. "I have to go, Elise. Take care."

"Be careful," Elise answered.

Yua began to sneak between the trees very carefully. Her view is limited because the light comes only from the moonlight entering through the leaves' gaps. All she can do now is focus on the point of light from her target torch.

Every step the woman took made her heart rate increase. This was her first mission, and she was very inexperienced.

However, if she refuses this mission, she doesn't know what will happen to her. Her master doesn't look bad, but that doesn't mean he's guaranteed to continue to do good. That person is truly a god. At first, she couldn't believe it, but being in this other world alone proved the divine power of the man named Raymund.

Maybe Raymund could send her to hell or do some other terrible things to her.

The distance between Yua and her target was getting closer. The kunoichi could feel the cold sweat running down her skin. Time and time again, she convinced herself that this was easy. She only had to stab with one of the darts, pull out her unconscious target, then search for the talisman.

But, suddenly, the target stopped walking. "Whoever it is behind me, stop what you're doing. I don't want to kill you. Surrender yourself to us."

Yua froze, not knowing what else to do. Taka said they were the chosen ones. So, of course, everything will not be that easy.

The guard turned around, then pulled out his katana with one hand, still holding the torch in the other.

"A kunoichi, huh?" The man pointed his shiny weapon at Yua. "Perhaps you'd be more successful if you were just seducing me."

"So, do you want to spend the night with me, sir?" Yua bent down to show off her cleavage, placing her index finger on her lips.

"Too late, lady. Even though I would love to do that."
