Sunburn almost instantly made her way up the assassin ladder of status.

When she completed 3 missions that were ranked S++ pulled her rank up to the top ten assassins in the world, not including the NightWing assassins that didn't participate in assassin missions.

The moment she had completed those 3 missions her rank went up to rank 4.

Soon, after completing a few more S++ Ranked missions and the fables S+++ mission she rose to rank 1.

And of course now her money stash was huge. Including Cactier's gathering they had about 5 billion gold coins with thousands of gems, ornaments, earrings, necklaces and everything in-between. She was probably the richest dragon in the world, yet she still saved as many gold coins as possible, trying to negotiate every price cheaper.

Cactier, however, was a natural heavy-spender. He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Whenever he went to spend over 500 gold coins, Sunburn would get defensive of the gold stash, saying most of it was hers and whatnot.

Every time Cactier eventually relented, letting Sunburn win the argument.

However, even though they had 5 billion coins, the cave was only 1/6 full. Sunburn had stuffed all the coins into separate caverns and the pieces of jewelry in other caverns. Sunburn wondered whether or not she would ever need to expand this cave of hers.

Cactier didn't really want to move up the assassin ranks. He was satisfied with just completing A rank and S rank missions and wasn't really into gold. He thought that the amount of gold was enough; he even wondered how he would ever spend it all.

Sunburn tried to convince him otherwise but he wouldn't listen. Being an assassin was tough and getting gold was part of it, she said over and over again.

Today Sunburn didn't feel like training. She wasn't any bit lazy but today she just didn't want to train. She called Cactier and explained to him the feeling.

"I don't want to train today."

Cactier was utterly speechless when he heard her. This trainer maniac didn't want to train? Was he hearing things?

"W-what? Don't you always want to train?"

"I said I don't want to train today."

Sunburn said once again, keeping her cold expression.

Cactier had gotten use to her cold attitude. It was just in her personality and it wasn't something she could change. However, every so often she would show an innocent and cute side of herself.

"Well, that's surprising."

Sunburn looked at him, without responding.

An awkward swish of wind rolled by, causing Cactier to shiver.

"Do you want to look around town then?"

Sunburn nodded.

"O-ok… let's go."

Just when Cactier was about to leave, Sunburn whispered,

"Wait…"

Cactier nearly didn't hear her. When he turned around, Sunburn had disappeared. He looked around and saw a small barbed tail entering their hut. After a minute, Sunburn returned. It didn't seem as if anything had changed of she had gotten anything, but as it wasn't his business he didn't ask, even though he was really curious.

She gave him a thumbs-up and a glance. He hadn't realized how short and small Sunburn actually was. He also was caught up in her powerful, commanding disposition, he hadn't even noticed her actual size.

Now that he mentioned it she was actually quite cute, like a little munchkin.

When he was thinking about her size, Sunburn was getting impatient. He had stood there for 10 seconds and looked into space, looking as if he was thinking of something of heaven-defying importance.

If she knew that he was thinking how scrawny she was, she would have wanted to cut him up alive.

She poked him in the arm, with a disappointed frown. She wanted to hurry up and go to town. This was one of the few times she actually wanted to go to town and Cactier was taking an eternity!

"Hurry up!"

Cactier snapped out of his mystical trance and stepped back into the real world. He hastily apologizing, not wanting to lose his head.

When he was about to take off into the air and fly to town, Sunburn asked him for a favor that made him speechless.

With the most innocent expression, she asked ignorantly,

"Cactier, can I ride on your back? I'm don't feel like flying either."
