At midnight, a dark shadow walked almost silently in the fortress of the "Stigmata Skin" guild.

After passing through the corridor, footsteps were heard in front of me, and the light of the lantern was approaching.

The black shadow immediately hid in the corner of the stairs.

The hunter in charge of night patrol didn't notice anyone here at all and passed by the black shadow.

Darkness is the best cover for assassins.

When the patrolman passed by, the black shadow walked out silently and continued to move towards the target.

Target: Male vampire hunter, with average or low swordsmanship, capable of elementary elemental magic and holy magic.

He is characterized by long black hair, handsome appearance, tall but slightly thin figure.

Pseudonym "Kain", real name unknown.

Relying on this information, Black Shadow, the ace assassin Ajna, has found the assassination target during the day and confirmed the room where the target is located.

Now, just make a slash on the target's neck with a dagger while the target is asleep, and the mission is complete.

Soon he reached the door of his target's room.

However, the lights were on in the room and the target was not sleeping.

Ajna had no choice but to lurk in the shadows outside the door, waiting for the moment when the lights went out and the sound of snoring could be heard.

....

Wait until the sun rises...

The assassination attempt on the first day failed because the target stayed up all night!

Ajina had no choice but to bear the dark circles under his eyes and moved stones for a day, waiting for night to fall again.

After dinner, he dragged his tired body to bed. At midnight, he barely replenished his energy, put on black clothes, picked up the dagger and set off again.

However, the bright light in the middle of the night dispelled the darkness again, leaving the assassin to retreat into the shadows and wait for his chance.

The cold air is coming, and this killer is a little cold.

But as a professional assassin, he has to be patient.

Another sleepless night.

The assassination attempt the next day failed!

Ajna dragged his nose with mucus and black circles under his eyes, and spent another day moving stones.

On the third night, everything was as usual. The assassin wrapped in a blanket had merged with the shadow outside the door.

When the morning sun shone on him, he felt like he was in another world.

The assassination on the third day failed!

Ajna, who was unconscious from moving the rocks, felt like he was going to die.

During the lunch break, the professional assassin who barely regained some energy suddenly thought, could that bastard sleep during the day like a vampire?!

However, after seeing the noble young master jumping around with a silver sword in the martial arts arena, Ajna fell into despair.

This is not human! I haven’t slept for three days and still have the energy to practice swordsmanship!

Seeing that the wall repair project was coming to an end and would be completed in about one day, the ace assassin made a decision:

No matter whether this kid sleeps or not tonight, I will hack him to death even if I risk my life!

When midnight came, the assassin not only brought a dagger, but also a steel sword on his back.

Originally, he brought the steel sword mixed in with the stone just as a precaution, but now it seems that it can actually be used.

When you kill that bastard who doesn't sleep, it will inevitably cause a commotion. Use a steel sword to break out of the siege in the chaos and leave an immortal assassin legend. This is what I, Ajina, will do tonight!

Before leaving, he took out the Assassin emblem and kissed the succubus portrait on it, filling his heart with strength.

So when he came to the second floor of the fortress and saw that the lamp that seemed to last forever was actually extinguished, tears streaked in the corners of his eyes.

Praise Assassin! My prayers have finally been answered!

Ajna suppressed her excitement and quietly walked into the room.

Looking at the sleeping figure on the deerskin bed, he gently pulled out the dagger and slowly approached.

Cover the mouth and cut the throat. These two actions are done in one go. The next thing to do is to hold the target's body tightly and feel the passing of life in the target's final death struggle.

Well?

Originally, blood would spurt out, but Ajna made an evasive action in advance to prevent the blood from spraying onto his face.

However, the target was very calm and there were no scars on his fair neck.

And the dagger made of fine steel in Ajna's hand actually... has its blade curled?!

He immediately pulled out the steel sword from behind and slashed towards the target's neck.

However, the steel sword collapsed and opened a hole.

Professional assassins don't know that only silver weapons in this world can hurt the True Ancestor.

Of course, not even the True Ancestor himself knew about this matter.

Speaking of which, today Jiang Xiaotan has finished reading "Medium Elemental Magic" that he has been studying for the past few days, and went to bed early.

While he was sleeping, he felt someone cover his mouth and then scratch his neck with something unknown.

When he was in Blue Star, the cat he kept at home would occasionally sit on his face in the middle of the night, and its tail would swing around and brush against his neck.

When he wanted to drive the cat away, he suddenly realized something was wrong.

He is no longer in Blue Star, and the hand covering his mouth is obviously a person's hand!

Jiang Xiaotan immediately became alert, waved away the man's hand, and then shouted: "What do you want to do?!"

At this time, the professional assassin's mental defenses were completely shattered like his weapons. With tears streaming down his face, he shouted "Monster!" and ran away through the door.

By this time, the patrolling hunters had been alerted and they blocked the way. Ajna's ambition to break out of the siege had long been shattered. He panicked and ran down the stairs to the top of the fortress.

The hunters had already surrounded him and forced him to the platform.

The desperate ace assassin was about to be captured. He looked around and found a haystack under the fortress.

Anyway, if you get caught, you will die, so why not give it a try!

Ajna was heartbroken and jumped towards the haystack with all his strength.

Perhaps thanks to Lord Assassin's blessing, he landed on the haystack accurately.

Safe and sound...that's impossible.

"What bastard put the pitchfork in the haystack?"

Although the professional assassin's life was saved, two holes were poked in his butt with a pitchfork.

Together with the existing one, it became the "Blood Moon Three-Star Cave".

However, now is not the time to just ignore the pain.

Holding his injured buttocks, Ajna limped up the stones piled beside the wall, then climbed over the wall and escaped.

The night is slightly cool, and the ground is covered with wounds.

This incident was eventually treated as an attempted thief incident by the hunters.

Although the "thief" carried a curled dagger and a gapped steel sword, he was dressed somewhat like an assassin.

However, you have already sneaked into the sleeping target's room and still failed to assassinate him? In a panic, you just covered the target's mouth and tickled the target's neck? How can there be such a good assassin in this world?

However, this incident aroused Jiang Xiaotan's vigilance.

He determined in his heart that this was a failed assassination.

The reason for the assassination was mostly related to the identity of the original owner.

Since the original owner is a noble with power and wealth, he will inevitably be coveted by others.

It seems that we need to find out the identity of the original owner, or at least know who our enemies are in this world.
