It was already 10.00 P.M when the helicopter landed at a well-lit plaza on a southern Island where the assassins hall was located.
The entire place was lit by torches as if it were some kind of a ritual ground. Lily didn’t wait for her young master and jumped down first when she noticed the 8 wooden pillars that each had a pretty girl tied to it. They surrounded an altar where Guy’s corpse wearing a groom's outfit was carefully placed over a pyre.
Dick was clearly planning to burn them alive with his son’s corpse. Probably at dawn with some audience it seemed, as many funeral tables were being arranged around the altar by some servants.
Lily smelled the gasoline that sprained on the ground. So did Victor, who gestured to the horrified Aria and Kai to stay on the helicopter as he jumped after Lily and put his hand around her waist calming her down.
“It’s ok, we got here on time.” He said, making her nod with relief.
Aria, who heard him from behind, resisted the urge to spit on him. “On time for what? Playing a hero? Did he time this on purpose?” She wondered silently.
“Can I help you?” A man dressed in black approached carefully and asked respectfully.
“This young master is here for the girls. I have the patriarch's order. Call your boss.” Victor said in a loud arrogant voice while flashing his Elite heir token, making the man bow respectfully and then hurry to find Dick after taking a look.
“Unbind them,” Victor told Lily who proceeded to do that. No guard dared to stop her after hearing what he said. If he was lying then Dick would deal with him. If not, they would have to endure a beating for nothing. So just wait, the girls will not go anywhere soon anyway.
The girls looked tired and dehydrated. They must have been here in the sun all day. But when they recognized Lily, they couldn’t help but smile. The big sister was here to save them. All of them believed that it was her who killed Guy when they heard the happy news. Too bad their happiness didn’t last. As Dick decided that his son needed some company in whatever place he would end up...
“Big sister, you came at last.” A girl said as she hugged Lily when the rope binding her where cut. She had some wetness in her eyes but didn't cry, they have learned the hard way not to shed tears in front of each other. As that made Guy punish them more
“Let’s go help the others,” Lily said softly and proceeded to unbind the other girls one by one. While that girl grabbed some water from a nearby table and helped her sisters drink.
Despite being there for a day, they didn’t need help moving as they were trained as assassins, and had stronger resistance than most people.
“Let’s go meet the young master,” Lily said as she dragged her sisters to Victor who was inspecting Guy's corpse. The girls were stunned by his charming looks and just as they were about to greet their new young master, a familiar thunderous ugly voice made them freeze in fear.
“How dare you unbind them!” Dick, A tall man with a bald head, tired evil eyes with black circles around them, and a scar ruining his face.
He ran from a nearby building and shouted angrily while the assistant who called him followed with a slap mark on his cheek.
Victor quickly moved forward putting the scared girls behind him. making them feel a little warm in their heart.
“They are now mine, The patriarch gave them to me,” Victor said as he threw the Patriarch's command at Dick, who grabbed fast and activated it to hear Ann’s command with a frown. If it was the patriarch who commanded him he might have some leeway, but it was Ann. And nobody dares disobey that bitch, not even him. Titus's public punishment two days ago sent shivers in his back whenever he remembered it. “Damn it.” He cursed silently as he looked at Victor with hatred.
“This young one is Victor Von Weise. An elite heir. I came here on the patriarch’s command to take those girls as they were deemed to be needed by the family. And also I was reminded to offer my condolences for the passing of your son.” Victor said as he bowed respectfully. Dick was an elder after all, and appearances must be kept.

“A Title?” This is the first person he met with this thing, and he only heard of a few people who had them in the past. And no wonder this bastard is irritated all the time.
Victor wondered as he quietly appraised Dick who regained his composure and nodded in acknowledgment as looked angrily at the girls behind Victor, especially Lily. Those girls were supposed to be his son’s wives in the underworld. Now they jumped into another man’s embrace while Guy’s corpse was still warm. “Damn, bitches. Just you wait” he cursed silently.
He quickly thought of a plan. A man like him was as poisonous as a snake.
“Young master Victor. Taking the girls is fine. But my son loved them very well and took care of them well as he was both their master and trainer. I wish that they can share a toast for his soul with me. It is the least they can do.” Dick said as he gestured to a mean-looking assistant to his side who quickly nodded and retreated, probably to get the liquor.
“No problem,” Victor replied as he felt Lily's hand secretly touch his arm. She was not stupid. Dick probably intends to take his revenge somehow. And he will do it covertly. Victor quickly held her hand reassuring her.
Soon the man returned with a decorated wine bottle, Victor almost gasped when he saw it.
| Livinor’s Liquor F Effect: Intelligence degrades gradually by 15 points for the next 90 days. |
This bastard intends to harm the girls. This thing was pretty much useless on Players, as its effect would be neutralized by their self-healing ability. And it is not marked as a poison so no poison status alert would appear after drinking it. But on mortals, this thing would make them become idiots. And it would happen gradually, so he would not be suspected.
Seeing this thing affirmed Victor’s suspicion that there is some power behind Dick. This poison was not known to the family, Dick wouldn’t dare use it if it were. It was probably meant to be used on some promising heir.
The assistant prepared glasses openly for everyone including Dick and Victor, who turned to the girls and then ordered them while disguising his voice so that Dick didn’t hear what he said.
“Drink only one sip then spit it in disgust and empty your glasses on the ground. It is a poison.” He said, just as they were handed their glasses and approached the altar facing Guy’s corpse.
The girls were professional assassins, so they didn’t reveal anything unnatural. They just acted as usual.
“Dear son. Look, we will toast to your soul now, hoping that you will find greatness in your next life. And marry a thousand wives.” Dick shouted as he raised his glass followed by the disgusted girls and Victor who wished that Guy's thousand wives would be his instead.
Then they drank a mouthful, only to spit it all on Guy's corpse at the next moment. Dick was the one who spat it the furthest.
“What the hell is this thing? How can it be so disgusting,” he wondered as he gave his assistant a death stare, not knowing that Victor had disguised the taste of this almost tasteless liquor with the taste of the mushrooms from the goblin’s dungeon. Victor didn’t expect that this useless upgrade of his skill would come in handy so frequently. Now it’s his turn to act.
“How dare you make this young master drink this piss,” Victor yelled as he threw the glass at Dick making him step back professionally to avoid it. Making the glass hit his assistant behind him who fell in pain with the liquor bottle that shattered on the ground. “Damn idiot.” Dick cursed while wondering for a second if Victor did that on purpose before forgetting about it as he watched Victor take a torch and throw it toward Guy's pyre, starting the cremation ceremony ahead of time. After that, he gestured angrily to the girl to follow him into the copter under Dicks and his underlings' astonished eyes.
Dick was shocked and before he could comprehend what had just happened he heard Victor’s shouts.
“You will pay for this,” Victor yelled as he rose into the air. “This young master will complain to the patriarch. How dare you humiliate me and let me drink dirty things like this.” His voice echoed as the helicopter took him away.
“Damn you,” Dick yelled as he ordered his men to get his son’s corpse before the fire reached it as he didn’t want him to be cremated like this without a suitable sacrifice. But it was futile, the ground was soaked with gasoline, so Guy’s corpse burnt to ashes under Dicks unwilling eyes.
After three minutes, Victor, who was watching the fire and the angry Dick from above the sea, quickly Activated his fate tracker Skill on Dick who was barely visible at this moment, then quickly unbuckled his seat belt.
“Did the family give me a mansion around here?” He asked Kai.
“Yes, young master. It is the 24th on the east residential island. However it is still empty, I haven't contacted any servants yet.” Kai replied.
“Good, I know the place. Take the girls there while acting as if I were still with you.” Victor said as he patted Lily’s hair, then took out his token and phone and gave them to her.
“Take care of your sisters. I will meet you at the mansion. I have something to attend to.” Victor said as he jumped off into the cold sea under the astonished eyes of Kai and the girls.
…
Victor used his disguise skill as he plunged into the dark seawater, hiding the splash and his body and he swam back toward the island.
He saw a certain look in Dick’s eyes when he looked at the girls. That man wanted to kill Lily, he felt it. And Victor will not let anyone touch his Lily.
It took him about 15 minutes to swim back to the island. Where he sneaked through the shore as he activated a hiding talisman he bought from the store. Those things cost a fortune, and would only work for half an hour. But they would shield him from detection formations.
He was reluctant to buy one earlier as it costs 100,000 per S ranked talisman. Those ones completely block his aura. But now he has a piggy bank, So he can easily spend this little money.
He headed back to the plaza. Where Guy’s corpse has been burnt to ashes that the servants were busy collecting. Dick was nowhere to be found, but Victor quickly followed the fate thread he tracked earlier deeper into the island to the main building.
“Strange, why head there instead of caring for his son’s corpse?” Victor wondered as he climbed through the forest heading toward a grand building higher up the island, while he purchased a few more talismans from the store. This is going to take a while. But no matter what, Dick must be eliminated.
…
Victor quickly caught up with Dick at The entrance of the building which was the headquarters of the Assassins hall. He walked three feet behind him.
Dick was walking slowly, heading deeper into the building while yelling at the unlucky servants who appeared in his way. Everyone could tell that he was in a very bad mood.
Victor followed as Dick descended one stair after another until he reached what appeared to be his private training room, where he locked the door tightly after checking all around him.
He then proceeded toward a rusty mirror on a nearby wall, then punctured his finger and drew a symbol on its surface.
| Zelator’s Communication Mirror No. 7922 A-Rank. Can Communicate with the other mirrors. But you have to know their Key. |
Victor, who appraised the mirror, was shocked. This thing is a communication device used by a certain hidden power. The Dark Chamber. A secret organization that dealt with information and assassinations.
The mirror shimmered for a while, then settled on the picture of a handsome man in a luxurious room. Victor didn’t know him.
“What do you need Dick.” the man asked,
“Young master, I need permission to assassinate Victor Von Weise,” Dick responded, making the man frown.
“Mmm. Victor,... Von Weise... Let me see.” The man said as he played with a terminal in his hand.
“A player…Vein… Supreme Merchant... Goblins dungeon… Linda, what a bitch… He seems to be the new Elite of your family. Killing him would draw too much attention so you can’t do it for now.” The man refused.
“But… That bastard not only took all the girls I was planning to sacrifice with Guy. He purposely ruined the funeral by starting the cremation. He ruined our plan, I lost the opportunity to ask elder Sam for a toast and then poison him.” Dick said.
“Oh, well Sam is not that important anyway. His daughter-in-law will do it, unfortunately, she would be discovered after this and we would have to extract her. But it doesn’t matter. And for Victor, he seemed to have annoyed that b*tch Charlotte, so his end would not be pleasant anyway. Let’s get to business. Did you finish your harvest this year?” The man asked.
“Yes, young master. They are all in my storage bracelet. Not many died at the ceremony this time, so I didn't get much from their corpses. but I found three brothers from a forgotten branch and harvested all of their blood. One of them had a very pure bloodline.” Dick answered by raising his hand to reveal a copper bracelet around his arm.
| Common Storage Bracelet Rank E (Can’t store living things) |
“Good,” Said the man. “I will send someone to get it tomorrow or the day after.”
“But… Young master. What is the blood good for? Ann has been researching this thing for ages, but she has achieved nothing.” Dick asked.
“That is not something you could ask, but don’t worry when we finish our research you would be greatly rewarded. And maybe you would be able to restore your manhood and father other children” The man said, making Dick’s eyes sparkle with hope.
"Do you have there anything else to report?" The man asked.
"Ah, I was wondering if the liquor you sent me was expired," Dick asked remembering that disgusting taste in his mouth.
“You would have to ask Vlad about that. Now go do your job. Remember to only target unimportant members.” The man said as his image shimmered, then the mirror returned to its rusty looks.
Dick sighed as looked at the bracelet in his hand. “Victor, you will pay for the humiliation of today.” He said as he turned to leave the room only to feel something prick him in the nape of his neck.
What is it? He didn’t get a chance to know as his body disintegrated under Victor’s astonished eyes.
He didn’t dare attack Dick directly. This guy was a professional assassin and although Victor could easily land the first strike, he was not sure how dick would respond. So he chose to test his new poison.
“Damn. This thing is too overpowered.” Victor cursed as he looked with fear at the needle in his hand.
He just dipped it in the vial with the black widow's corpse and then pricked Dick with it. The dose was less than a drop.
| ???????????? Poison Rank SSSS |
What the hell was this thing he created that even the system failed to name? And what with the SSSS rank. Victor had no idea such a rank existed. What would happen if he tried to enhance this thing even further?
He carefully covered the needle, then put it with the vial in his storage ring and began to carefully appraise what remained of Dick’s corpse. Thankfully it was not poisonous.
He quickly put it in his storage ring to study it later then collected the treasures scattered on the ground. Besides the storage bracelet, there were 10 steel throwing needles and a B-ranked dagger.
Victor branded it then activated it and looked inside it, shouting in surprise.
It was not very spacious. Inside it, 20 Barrels full of blood with a purple hue were stacked. Dick has been collecting blood from the family and sending it to his employer it seems. He was probably harvesting unimportant members and the fresh corpses from the ceremony.
Victor looked around the room but found nothing important besides the mirror, which he grabbed and put in his ring. This thing can be used later.
After cleaning everything, Victor changed his shape to that of Dick's, then left the room and headed outside while not forgetting to yell at some servants and some random assassins who had just returned from their missions.
Soon he reached the docks, where he found a storage building and took two rubber boats from inside. He put one in his ring and used the other to sail.
When a guard asked him where he was going, Victor only looked at the man and scuffed, causing him to wet his pants.
The scared guard watched the boat disappear under the darkness of the moonless night. As Dick sailed with a solemn look, heading into the unknown.
Not really, a few miles later he sank the boat and then used the other one with his disguise skill to sail to the eastern residential island where Lily was waiting for him.
Akaichi A very long chapter.
It was already 10.00 P.M when the helicopter landed at a well-lit plaza on a southern Island where the assassins hall was located.
The entire place was lit by torches as if it were some kind of a ritual ground. Lily didn’t wait for her young master and jumped down first when she noticed the 8 wooden pillars that each had a pretty girl tied to it.
