The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World

Lilia wasn’t expecting such a direct question coming from Aiden, especially with such a tone.

In fact, she thought that he would be a lot more friendly if they were to be alone together, but it seemed that this wouldn’t be the case at all.

He was cold, even colder than earlier when he was surrounded by all those people.

Lilia thought that he had been playing a role, not wanting to show his true self to the others, however, it seemed that he was like this.

‘I wonder what happened to him, for him to have such a radical change in his personality,’ thought Lilia.

She knew that living in the Slums must have been extremely hard for him and he must have suffered a lot without any help from the family.

However, then she thought about how he was being treated in the family and realized that maybe the Slums weren’t that bad for him.

“So, what did you want to talk about?” repeated Aiden seeing that she didn’t seem able to answer at the moment, seemingly frozen, unable to move a single inch.

Hearing his voice, it seemed that she called out of her daze.

“R-right, what did I want to talk about,” she mumbled, as she once again looked him in the eyes.

“Do you remember me?” asked Lilia.

‘What should I answer here?’ thought Aiden, as he had no idea of his past relationship with the person in front of him.

Was she a friend? 

Someone he considered family?

There were many possibilities and Aiden had honestly no idea which one she was a part of.

‘Should I play the idiot?’ thought Aiden as this would simply be a lot easier to get answers.

“Um, should I?” asked Aiden, acting as if he had no idea of her identity at all.

It seemed to have worked as Lilia seemed shocked when she heard his response.

“Wait, you don’t know who am I?”

Aiden moved his head from left to right, clearly wanting to say no.

“Just what did they do to you?” uttered Lilia out of nowhere, shocked that Aiden had no idea of who she was.

As she uttered those words, she slowly got closer to Aiden, slowly caressing his face, clearly worried about the things that he had to endure.

‘Oh, wait… did I make a mistake here,’ thought Aiden, as it seemed that this conversation would be going in a totally different way than he had expected.

“Did they erase your memories?” said Lilia, shocked that this was an actual possibility of what happened.

“Do you not remember me? Your first girlfriend and probably only one,” asked Lilia once again making sure that Aiden hadn’t made a mistake.

‘Wait, I should tell her that I know about her,’ thought Aiden as he wanted to fix her mistake.I think you should take a look at

“My first girlfriend?”

“Wait a second, of course I remember you, Lilia,” said Aiden, acting as if she knew who she was from the very beginning.

“Wait, so you actually remember about me?” said Lilia, feeling happy once again.

She had to admit that she had been going through mood swings recently and that it certainly was special to experience.

“Of course, sorry I was just a little confused over this whole thing. However, I don’t have a lot of memories from my time with the Nightshades,” said Aiden, not caring if he revealed any sort of information as Lilia already knew a big part of it.

Aiden made sure to mention that he had forgotten a lot of the Nightshade since that way it would be a lot easier to lie about things when asked questions.

“Do you remember what they did to you? They told me that you died, so don’t think for a second that I abandoned you, in fact, I always had that little hope that you were still alive,” said Lilia.

‘Wow, I guess she really loved the past Aiden, maybe that’s why I don’t feel anything negative when I look at her,’ thought Aiden, as he remembered the clear contrast of emotions when looking at her and looking at Lucius.

It was literally night and day.

“So, what happened to you in those past years, did it really take you two months to become this strong?” asked Lilia.

She was curious as to whether or not Aiden had lied about some things to Melinda to make his worth increase.

However, it seemed that it hadn’t been the case at all and that he had only told the truth in the entirety of the conversation.

“Um, so was that the reason that you called me here?” asked Aiden as he didn’t understand why it was necessary for the two of them to talk in private.

Sure, they had been boyfriend and girlfriend in the past but that was years ago it seemed, so why did she even care?

“Well, I wanted to see you again and talk to you alone just like before, didn’t you also miss that feeling.”

‘Well, not really since I have no idea what you’re even talking about because I’m not the one you think you are,’ thought Aiden.

“Well, as I said I don’t remember much of my time in the Nightshade family.”

“Oh, and since we’re alone, I need to make sure of something,” said Aiden, getting a little serious.

“I need you to promise me that you won’t tell my existence to Sylas or anyone from the Nightshade Family, they must never find out about my existence.”

The fact that they already knew about the Reaper was good enough and Aiden didn’t need any more problems.𝑛𝗈𝗏𝚎𝐿𝒏𝑬xt.𝓬𝑜𝗆

“Sure, it’s not like I was going to tell anyone in the first place, and don’t worry I remember how they treated you and I don’t want that to happen to you ever again.”

Lilia was a bit surprised that Aiden was asking her such a thing, however, she understood that he clearly didn’t want any contact with the Nightshade Family anymore.

“Then, did you have anything else that you wanted to talk about?” 

“Yes, I do, why are you so cold toward me? I already told you that I wasn’t related to whatever they did to you.”

“You know, Aiden, I still love you even after all those years, I never forgot about you even for a single moment.”
