((Reito))

Marin laughed loudly and wholeheartedly. "Come on now, isn't marriage almost exactly lie guardian ship?" It was true, at least for a few couples around. A guardian was meant to stand by the side of their client and protect them no matter what. A swear of loyalty to that person entirely for the remainder of a contract. Modern marriages were not always happy and cheerful, nor even romantic. Some just used it to escape the higher taxes. Well, that is with a varied amount between the different cities. "

"So, how long are we staying here in Aneastor?" Reito questioned, wondering if he already mentioned this before. Though he knew some of it was determining on how quickly a request came for him.

Marin rubbed his chin, as if to think hardly on some matter. "Two weeks. I want vacation time." He smiled before laughing loudly. This man, Reito just increasingly got the feeling would be one never understood. "Besides you wanted to stay around here for awhile longer no? Three o'clock."

Reito raised a brow, at the last sentence which seemed to cut the air very quickly. Almost just as quickly, he felt a bump on his right side. Instinct, he reached to the left of his waste for his sword only to grab nothing. Of course it was on his back, probably for the better as well. "I am sorry." She even took a bow to be formal, something that put him on edge. He hated the formalities, even more so, using them himself. But unfortunately it was always needed. "I was not paying attention."

Marin chuckled softly, grabbing Reito's shoulder. "Excuse me. I would hate to trouble you, but would you happen to know how can I get to the Akademiyi? I am new to this city and I have no idea..." This, gave him even more of an outward chuckle. Marin indeed was a curious making man.

"Well young lady." Reito looked to the girl, wondering just how old she possibly was as Marin continued to speak. "Why don't you come with us? We were heading to the Akademiyi anyhow here within an hour. " Reito spun around to face Marin, knowing this was not in the original plans. Of course he had been here a time or two, but did that really mean he had to show girl's around the place?!

"Your kindness will ruin you one day diplomat." Reito spoke, eyeing backwards at the sword the girl had. He didn't want to mention any names, because names contained information that other's didn't need. Hell, even Assassins could strike just by name. Class however, was probably the most basic important thing to get through.

Marin raised an inquisitive eye before walking along. "And your harshness will end with you alone Silver Striker!" He hollered rather loudly compared to the distance he was making. "Oh and Reito, we might find you a job at the destination." So Marin used both his alias and his name.

Reito kept his right hand to his forehead as he began to walk after Marin. "Come or stay, that is your choice." He muttered to the girl. "It seems either way we are going to that damned Akademiyi."
