The shadow spy, a tiny creature that I conjured, made from shadow, humanoid with the size of a mouse, has found the first secret. A male servant is having an affair with a young maid. The two are drowned in pleasure and love.
"Ouu.. steamy.." I said to myself as I watch the magical live feed from the shadow spy. The image and the sound directly goes into my mind, like watching a live video.
"Okay what's next?" I wonder what will be the next secret to uncover. Using my mind, I command the shadow spy to move away and search for the next secret.
The shadow spy arrived at the male chef's room. The male chef is trying girl's clothing and pose in front of the mirror. "Okay, this start to get boring.." I sighed. Move on to next.
The shadow spy arrived at my father's room. I saw my father doing some work. Then I saw his documents, he took a massive loan, the bank requested him to pay up, and he is already behind schedule. I saw his accounting documents, all red, no profit. I sighed. This can't do.
Then I saw it, the letter from Velgrin Trade Companies. They offer to settle the loan my father made with the bank. In return, my father has give up his company, Lorandis Trade Company, to them.
I think, something is fishy. Something is definitely not right.
To my knowledge, according to my body's memory, Lorandis Trade Company used to be very profitable.
Then a dark envelope, appear in front of me, floating. I took it mid-air, open it, and read the letter inside.
'You have completed the mission. The reward 2 SP is now yours.'
I toss away the letter and the envelope to the side. It crumble by itself, then vanish into the void.
SP is, Shadow Points. A system that the Shadow Goddess have created for me. I can use it to upgrade my stats, or unlock a new skill.
I understand the Shadow Goddess doesn't want to bestow all the Shadow Saint's ability all at once to me. She wants me to grow gradually. Master the abilities gradually.
But,
I have uneasy feeling. Who the heck is this Velgrin Trade Companies?
Nevermind, I will think about what to do in the next morning. I sleep soundly, my body needed rest anyways.
----
It's morning. After doing the morning routine, I sat down for breakfast. Father is looking grim. So is Mother. None of us said anything to each other. I quickly eat breakfast and go back to my room.
In my room, I conjure 5 more shadow spies. I told one to investigate my father's company and his financials. The rest, I told them to investigate Velgrin Trade Companies and it's subsidiaries.
The shadow spies are autonomous. They know where to go and where to look. I don't need to control them all the time, I just give them simple command and they will do their job. They will record everything they see and hear into their memory, and transfer that memory to me upon their return.
Or, if I want to tune in to one of the spies to see and hear what they see and hear, I can do that as well.
The shadow spies can dive into shadows and hide. Perfect for espionage.
I have to wait until midnight to get their report. In the mean time, I'll go to lessons and classes as usual.
