To kill an emperor (1)

In the southern part of the empire a character walked into a small town, the character was in one word shady. He carried a staff with a dark magic beast core embedded at the top of the staff and wore a thick brown robe with a hood over his head, walking into the small town the figure walked to a nearby inn and went to book a room for the night

"w-what will it be?"

the hostess was a little intimidated when she saw the face of the figure, his face was bandaged leaving only a thin line that exposed a pair of blue vertical split eyes, the figure put down 10 cel on the counter without asking for the price

"one room for the night"

the hostess quickly took the money

"sure right this way"

the figure followed after the hostess and arrived at a small-very-too-cramped room with a single bed, the room smelled of mold but the figure just gave a nod

"this will do, leave"

"s-sure at once, have a good night"

the figure sat down on the bed and gave a sigh
