After fifteen days, we finally reached that place. The city with the biggest qnd the main branch of Shadow cats. According to Sam it wasn't as big as main city of Outcast continent but its still one of the most hideous places you could ever visit and honestly I could understand her.
For the last four hours I have been travelling in this place and you could find everything including day-light murder, Robbery, theft, Fuck I just saved three girls from getting raped and the third one stabbed me and in the fit if anger. I killed her and ended up absorbing her. And then I realised that why people dont try to help here even if they could. All in all I could see this city has huge wall surrounding it, although its smaller than that wall I have see on the outer part of the continent it's still bigger and stronger than the walls of other cities in path. This place at first looks like a common middle aged kingdom with food stalls, craftsman, clothing and accessories but 😑😑😑 then you see sudden outbreaks of criminals and you realize that yep it does like outlaw continent.
Anyway to the main point, I have already things with Sam so in the end we decided on a new Mission. Sam has already chosen which he was planning to do with another assassin. It was third tier mission pretty much hard for a human level to complete cause the Target itself was a 3 tier king and its soldiers were a human level too. In the silia principalty of aryawrata empire ( a old Korean empire ), although it was pretty low ranked in terms of capabilities and its distance from capital influenced it too. They still belong to a bonafide Nobel society. The head of the kingdom was Earl' weinman ugio' ( fuck I just combined too names, all from Google.). According to reports he should atleast be 7th tier monarch cause that's the minimum requirement to become a earl according to rules. It gonna be impossible for us to complete it if he gets involved.So it will require Strength and strategy both for assassination.
Grey Marcus is our target, he is a baron there and holds a huge influence. He is a twenty five year old illegitimate child of the Marcus family of royal empire which is also one of third strongest family of the entire humanity. Her mother was a maid and some thirteen years ago she was assassinated by poison. And the one who gave her that poison was Grey itself. When his father Earl William III Marcus asked him the reason. His father although he was weakest among sons Her highnesses princess, he is still powerful than some dukes cause of his background but even to him His answer was pretty simple. He said that the reason he killed her was because he tried to have sex with a maid and when she didnt agree and so he killed her. The reason was probably, everyone who had been intimate with him has died .This nature wasnt just born out of nothing after all. His father himself was too lascivious in nature, it could be seen with the fact that he had sex with almost every maid he had. So he clearly inherited his nature and according to reports his father was a maniac in his teen too. But his family didn't gave him too trouble at that moment cause at the age of thirteen he was monarch. He was an absolute genius regardless of race. Cause he got away he got a little daring and at the age of twenty years old when he was a 4th grade saint and tried to rape the Daughter of the Third of Daniel Marcus and she was also the favourite granddaughter of Princess Rile Marcus the current head of the family and the Half-god. Daniel himself was 2nd grade demigod and in fit of anger he abolished his entire energy core and make him fall to the human level. And Princess Rile also announces him to go to such a faraway town to just become a baron.
According to reports target is currently recovering his powers. He is twenty five years old and again back to king form. Target has found a extremely formidable method in which he completely suck someone's energy during copulation. Customer is Earl' weinman eugio' personal secretary. He will make sure to keep his majesty away on the day of assassination for us to escape.
' I have to somethings first' I knew things aren't as simple as mission described.
" Sam, can you personal info Earl Weinman and his secretary for the last five years." I asked him out of blue so his face was a little shocked.
" What happened "
" Nothing, I just didn't expect that" He says and took out a report out of nowhere.
" You, what the f$$k, why would have this" I was a little shocked. On the paper there was a complete description about Earl and his secretary.
" Well, on the way back I met a hooded person and he passed it to me and told me that maybe I would need this" Although Sam has said that. I was still shocked.
'How could this idiot just take something and didnt even ask' But I knew there was no use asking him that.
" Tell me, If he said anything else" I calmly asked.😑😑 ( just for fun, hope you dont mind it )
" Well he was completely hooded and he was faster. Although we were both seventh grade human. He was still too fast to be catch up and so what did you found" He said while still thinking about that.
" Two years, the two year old son of Earl's daughter was assassinated with his mother by an assassin of Shadow nights And apparantly his father was That bitch from the Marcus family. So do you understand what it means" I asked while still trying to get the whole picture.
" This was a trap, is this what you are saying"
" Not bad, but there are two thing that could be true. Either this report is false after all we dont even known the sender or we didn't just betrayed by the client but also by the shadow nights" I looked at him with a smile.
" You mean, but is there a proper reason. They don't need such petty means they could just send an king level assassin and we are done" He looked at me suspiciously.
" Are you an idiot, do you think the supreme leader of Shadow cats wants us dead. No, ofcourse Earl has bribed or blackmailed the reporter who was supposed to make sure if this is a true assassination." I ended up chucking a little bit. His face turned a little red on this cause of embarrassment.
"Yeah right, so what's the plan are abandoning this mission."
" Nope, regardless of consequences we will do it Just we will do a little information gathering in the city itself and then we will. If its false it's good but if it's true then it's the best cause this will us the best advantage we can over and that is knowledge of the enemy motives" I gave him a reassuring smile 😊☺
