Chapter 5

" The test will be held at 8pm. Someone will come get you and bring you to me. I'll be giving you your test. Complete it and you pass. Understood. "

" Yes sensei. "

Sensei then left soon after. I decided to go to my room to sleep for a bit. This test was a great opportunity. Once I pass this test I'll be able to go do missions for money and get paid at the end of each month.

This will help as I'll be able to get my own sword forged from a blacksmith. Karasuma sensei is friends with one and said he'll take me to him after I graduate.

After that comes the hard part. Making an army. To take down the king and the royals I need an army. The king is only focused on military strength and not on the economy. The royals used this to take control over the kingdom.

What they do makes this kingdom's situation similar to the kingdom in Akame ga Kill.

Passing is the best option. It gives me more freedom to get connections. When the kingdom loses its king and the royals I'll have to fix the problems caused by them. Having man power will be useful.

As a bonus everytime there's a mission I can loot whatever valuable or of use to me.

Soon someone came and guided me to my sensei. When we arrived at the place I noticed there were a lot of people working at counters. This was the place where you could ask for missions.

I was taken to a private room. Karasuma sensei was waiting.

" Good you're here. The mission I chose for you is an assassination mission. In this kingdom there's a man you must kill.Heres the info. "

He gave the paper with the mission on it along with the man. He isn't a skilled mage so this should be easy. Apparently he has a bounty because he steals money from people and has been doing it for 1 year. Probably ran away a lot. His combat experience should be very low.

" Once you finish come back here. To show that you completed the mission bring back his head. "

" Understood. "

I then left the place. Once I reached a place where no one was there I used apparition to head into town. I put myself on a high building. I activated my spatial perception to look around. I found him. He was in a hotel room. Not bad. Hiding himself in plane sight by masking his appearance.

Too bad he ran into me. I teleported into his room when he was distracted and cut his head off with my sword. He wasn't powerful at all. His magic capability was very low so killing him was no problem.As for the act of killing I feel nothing. Hmm i wonder if it's because I have higher mental strength or because I already died once that I don't feel anything. Doesn't matter right now.

I put his head in a sack before looking around. What I found made was money. Lots of money. He had a case with multiple bags of coins to use.

Not bad for my first mission.It was easy and i managed to gain money in the process.I then headed back to sensei.

" You came back fast. Do you have the head? "

" Yes. "

I threw the sack at him and he caught it. He looked inside and checked it.

" Looks like you completed the mission and in record time. You pass.Heres the money from the mission." He smiles at that. I took the bags of coins. I was ecstatic. In a few minutes I increased my savings by a large amount. Life is going great right now.

" I'll now go over what new things you can access since your a magic knight. "
